6th Floor Common Room [Sunday evening]

[sexonyoursheets.livejournal.com]

So, okay, it wasn't like Puck was Mr. Party Planner, ever. But Quinn had had a birthday and it wasn't like he was going to let anyone forget that just because some people were graduating or whatever.

So, Sunday eveningish, when he sort of figured most people had gotten rid of their parents or grandmas or whatever they had brought to the island, he'd set up the 6th floor common room for Quinn's party. He hadn't gotten streamers or anything, but he had gotten a banner that read 'HAPPY 17TH QUINN', which he'd hung across one of the walls. There was also a cake, which he hoped she'd like, but he had no idea because it wasn't like Puck was an expert on girl cakes. Or cakes in general, except in the way of knowing when they tasted awesome.

And there was a ball pit, too, which he figured instant entertainment, and plenty of food other than the cake, and a table for presents. Puck was resisting the urge to stand near it, threatening, and imply that he would beat people up if they didn't leave something. He was growing, this way.

[and since I did not realize that this party is in absentia thanks to new arrivals, we shall be handwaving the eventual presence of the delightful Ms. Fabray. :D]

Arrive/Mingle!

[sexonyoursheets.livejournal.com]

Because this is a party and that is what you do.

Nathan was drawn to parties like a moth to a flame and it helped that Quinn was actually someone he liked well enough. So, after drinking mead and eating food, he wandered into the common room, prepared for a birthday party.

Yeah, Jake wasn't going to miss this. Not when there was cake and a ball pit. Okay, and because Quinn was cool.

And look, he was going to eye that ball pit and wonder when would be an appropriate time to just take a dive in. Anyone making jokes about puppies and balls was getting a ball thrown at their head, yes.

Two parties in one day? Count Ariel in, especially when one of them was a birthday party for a friend! She'd hate to miss Quinn's birthday, party or not.

First there was a huge gathering with as much mead as a vampire could drink and now there was cake! It was an epic day for Quinn to have a birthday, for sure.

Caroline was only a little tipsy on mead when she arrived, but that just meant she would have no problem smiling at everything that was going on. She was determined to be happy tonight. Determined.

Bruce arrived for what would probably be his last party before leaving for the summer. At least he was going out on a birthday party for a friend. That was enough to get him to put on a smile and make his way up to the sixth floor.

Alexander wouldn't be much of a gentleman at all if he missed Quinn's birthday, so it was a good thing that he would attend such an event happily. There had been a lot going on, but this was the sort of social event that he didn't feel obligated toward finery, so he was quite content.

Arriving a little later, Bod chuckled at how well Puck seemed to have planned and stepped inside to look around a little more. Considering Bod had thought himself in love with Quinn a few months ago and she'd forgive him for that, he wasn't about to stay away.

Quinn had been one of the sorority leaders, was an okay enough girl, and Kate liked parties. So, here she was, having escorted her brother to the end of the causeway and sent him off through his very first portal.

She wasn't sure she'd stay long, though. It had been a long couple of days.

Rilla wouldn't dream of missing out on an occasion to spend time with Quinn (inside. With people who bathed), and was very excited when she saw the cake and banner.

"This looks lovely!"

Wesley was here, bearing a girly gift in a girly bag that he was eager to set down on a table somewhere and forget about. He gathered a plate of food (so much more appetizing than the possibly-poisoned stuff over by the mead party) and settled down comfortably.

This wasn't a bad party, all things considered. Even though Puck freaked him out a little.

Re: Arrive/Mingle!

[angelo_wings]

Aww, a party! Rinoa wouldn't have missed it for the world. And it might even perk her spirits back up, after the down of graduation.

Cake! And other food, but especially cake!

[sexonyoursheets.livejournal.com]

The cake had seventeen pale pink candles on it, though they weren't lit until Quinn showed to blow them out, of course.

Talk to the birthday girl!

[sexonyoursheets.livejournal.com]

Who is possibly not expecting this, and for whom you must wait to ping in.

Presents!

[sexonyoursheets.livejournal.com]

Leave one. Or deal with the glare.

Or, you know, don't leave one but pretend you did when he wasn't looking!

Re: Presents!

Puck had gotten Quinn a couple things. The first, wrapped in a larger box (http://www.dancecheer.net/spiritmall/product.php?productid=16484&cat=310&page=1), had an untidily written note attached. So you can practice for next year.

The smaller (http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/lauren-by-ralph-lauren-nassau-cluster-pendant-necklace/3152526?id=11928522&largeImg=0&tn=largerview_popup&tname=product) box didn't have a note, though he did sign his name on the little card that went with it. He was just kind of hoping she liked it, honestly.

Caroline had done her very best to smuggle a gorgeous bottle of mead out of the party this afternoon. And then she'd wrapped it beautifully in glittery pink paper and ribbons fit for the occasion.

Re: Presents!

[tripledmyself.livejournal.com]

Nathan's gift was wrapped rather badly but what was inside (http://www.amazon.com/Leonidas-Belgian-Chocolates-General-Assortment/dp/B0001ZZIEC/ref=sr_1_14?ie=UTF8&qid=1304278919&sr=8-14) would probably prove better. He also added a small plush (http://www.amazon.com/Shannon-OShamrock-Plush-Irish-Bearington/dp/B000KK6LU8/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1304279055&sr=8-4) gift which would give away who it was from, he hoped.

Considering the slightly awkward past he and Quinn had - and his usual habit of not taking the time to figure out what appropriate gifts would be - Bruce figured he was best going with his old default.

He put an envelope with a celebratory amount of cash on the table.

Rilla's gift (http://www.planetpurl.com/planetpurl/images/pattern_photos/33/91/02/3713_339102003722958_large.jpg) was elaborately wrapped. She did so hope Quinn liked it: Rilla had been working on knitting lace for the last few months.

Re: Presents!

Buying Quinn a gift had been difficult, since Wesley had kind of suspected she would be the sort of person to like girly clothing-related gifts, and that wasn't something he was very good at shopping for.

But he did have this (http://www.popgadget.net/images/Miss%20Army%20Knife.jpg), which was a ridiculous gift in some respects but kind of logical in others. Attached, he included a note:

For future invasions. -Wesley

Oh, Quinn. Enjoy the creepy present.

Re: Presents!

[daventryprince.livejournal.com]

Alexander was quite uncertain of what sort of gift to give an acquaintance like Quinn; it helped to think of something perhaps his sister might enjoy receiving, and he also considered the fact that she had very lovely hair. So, of course, it came to reason to him that he should give her something lovely for that lovely hair.

So there was a neatly wrapped box from Alexander, in which he had carefully laid two small combs (http://ridancesport.com/images/supplies/IMG_9214.jpg) for her, with a note wishing her many happy returns and a compliment on how such bright accessories would be honored to find themselves worn by someone so fair.

Re: Presents!

Ariel thought of a lot of stuff that she could have gotten Quinn for her birthday, but she decided maybe the best gift to give was one that kept giving. Which was why she settled for a $50 gift certificate for Pixie Dust, with a note wishing her happy birthday and saying she should come in on Tuesday so that she can help her pick out something really good.

Okay, and there was also a cool old bottle (http://www.flickr.com/photos/peterme/525290286/), right from her own collection, too! Because who didn't want a cool old bottle?

Re: Presents!

Rinoa had a wrapped package that contained a number of bath items from Lush. When in doubt, awesome-smelling bath bombs seemed like the way to go.

This post is brought to you by all my icons that have Quinn in them.

And also by my definite AFK-ness starting at 7 EST, though I might be back around 9, possibly!
