Super Bowl Party, 1st Floor Rec Room, Sunday Afternoon

[withoutverona]

Thanks to KKG and a little ingenuity, the first floor rec room was arranged for a Super Bowl Party. Black, yellow, red and white crepe paper hung from the walls, a good chunk of the seating in the dorms had been dragged into the room for the crowd, and a table was full of assorted snacks guaranteed to destroy arteries and waistlines alike.

Even if you just wanted to see the commercials, it would probably be a fun time.

[OOC: I have NO time to make this creative, sorry. Up early for SP and timezones, please wait for OCD is done.]

"Padding," Dinah mentioned, taking a sip of her drink. "And it's more fun in person? But having a party like this makes up for it, I think."

"Nothing wrong with a party," he agreed as he raised his glass and wiggled it jauntily.

"Definitely!" Although... "I'm not sure about the half-time show, though. I don't want to be a chicken, but Brooke said they might take pictures."

Re: Pre-Game Mingling

...

"Half-time show?"

Re: Pre-Game Mingling

"You didn't see the posters?" Dinah turned a little red. "There's, a, um, girl-kissy party at half-time. Which, I've never done that, so... yeah."

"Where people kiss girls? Like one of the booths?"

Re: Pre-Game Mingling

"Where girls kiss girls." Dinah turned even pinker. "I think that's all there is to it?"

Re: Pre-Game Mingling

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

Blink.

"And why is this all that... odd?"

Re: Pre-Game Mingling

[blondecanary.livejournal.com]

Maybe she was the one who'd misunderstood? But no, Brooke had made it seem pretty clear.

"On the mouth? So guys can go 'woooo'?"

Re: Pre-Game Mingling

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

"Why? They're not the ones getting kissed."

He shook his head.

"I don't get it."

Wait.

"Does that mean that girls would enjoy watching boys kiss?"

Re: Pre-Game Mingling

[blondecanary.livejournal.com]

"Um." Oh, wow, look at those chips on her plate! "Some do. I guess? Depends on the guys, maybe."

Re: Pre-Game Mingling

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

He scratched at his ear thoughtfully.

"That doesn't make... any sense. Either way."

Re: Pre-Game Mingling

[blondecanary.livejournal.com]

He wasn't joking, so so much for it being an innate trait. "Some guys just find it pretty to watch, and kind of ... exciting. Some girls find it pretty, and et cetera. And that's why I'm nervous and not sure I want to do this and oh god what if no one wants to kiss me?"

Anxiety attack for one!

He quirked his head again, but for a different reason.

"Why wouldn't they? You're pretty, very sweet, and friendly enough. There's very little reason not to kiss you."

All matter-of-fact.

And cue more blushing. God, Liir was matter-of-fact. Amber was so lucky. "Uh, thank you? I just... I don't think I come across as... experienced." She smiled a little. "But maybe it won't matter, since it's mostly for fun?"

Re: Pre-Game Mingling

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

"I'd never even been kissed before I came here," he said with a shrug.

"Most of it seems to be to see what they're doing, don't get in the way, and sort of copy it. Even I picked it up, so it has to be relatively easy."

Re: Pre-Game Mingling

Dinah laughed, relieved. "I kissed my boyfriend before here, but there was only the one, and... yeah. With girls, at least they probably won't be pushy about it? Since we'd all hate that."

Re: Pre-Game Mingling

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

"I'm sure they're having the same sort of nerves as you're having," he agreed.

Re: Pre-Game Mingling

[blondecanary.livejournal.com]

"Yay." Dinah grinned. "So yeah, enjoying the game, and the day, and having a good weekend otherwise. You?"

Re: Pre-Game Mingling

"No longer covered in diamonds, researching things, and I was going to cook today before I heard about the party," he said with a smile.

Re: Pre-Game Mingling

[blondecanary.livejournal.com]

"Awww, no food?" Dinah grinned. "I guess we do have enough snacks for forever, though. What were you going to research?"

Re: Pre-Game Mingling

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

"I'm er... magic, mostly. This project I'm working on for someone back at home."

Re: Pre-Game Mingling

[blondecanary.livejournal.com]

"Oh cool." Which, with Liir's home, meant it was probably pretty important. "I hope you find what you're looking for." She frowned. "What's the library like here, anyway? I haven't had to go there yet."

Re: Pre-Game Mingling

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

He shook his head.

"I don't use the library. Just the books I have that were given to me by the Queen of the O.Z. Ozian magic is... a bit odd, honestly.

"But the library's nice enough. I used to go every week and bring lunch to my 'big brother'."

"Ohhhh. Hunh. I still want to see you on your broomstick." She grinned a little. "And who's your big brother? Mine is Jamie. The insane one."
