6th Floor Common Room, Saturday evening

[craftyladyparts.livejournal.com]

The sixth floor common room was all done up for a party. Really all that meant was that there was pizza, chips, and drinks (including some that seemed to be mysteriously unlabeled for anyone who might want to drink something that IS TOTALLY FINE AND YOU CAN'T PROVE OTHERWISE in the dorms). There was also a small American flag over by the TV to indicate that what this weekend was really about wasn't completely forgotten, especially considering Jessica's recent military experiences.

But those experiences were even more reason for her to relax, play some music on the radio, and hope that nobody stabbed anybody this time.

[OOC: This is the party with the I Never game that leads to Not-So-Final Destination Week. If you'd like to participate in that, please at least establish yourself in the game and maybe throw out some prompts!

Everyone in the dorms is invited via fliers from earlier this week.]

Arrive and Perhaps Even Mingle

AKA Show up and maybe talk to some people.

Gert showed up sans Old Lace, because dinosaurs might be party animals, but not always in a good way. Also, there was only so much couch space.

If it looked like she had never been to a high school party before, that was because she had never been to a high school party before. So that was one mystery solved.

"Hey, Gert," Jessica said. "Make yourself comfortable. You have the honor of being fashionably early compared to anyone else who might show up."

"Hey," Bay said, looking considerably more at ease with the high school party thing. "You look all ready to party. Oh, and I have actual news from KC."

Sia did show up to these things on purpose every now and then, and today was one of those days. She got a drink- an unlabeled one, even- and looked to see who was showing up.

"Sia! I'm glad you came. You're my backup in case anyone tries to get a little enh-enh-enh," Jessica said while making stabby motions.

Hopefully Sia picked up on what that meant.

Oh hey, it was her big sis that looked just like her roomie. It was never going to get old. Never.

"Hi Sia," Anya called.

Alex was supposed to learn to be more social while she was here. A party seemed like a good opportunity to do that, so she made sure to show up. She might even stay.

You know what Maddie hadn't had nearly enough of in her life? High school parties. Time to fix that. She was just going to take a moment to look over the drinks, and try to figure out what the unlabeled ones were.

Yes, she knew they what they were, she was just trying to figure out what kind with little to know knowledge to work from.

Cassidy hadn't really gone to many parties. However, the fliers for this one had made it seem like fun and she really wanted to make more friends. A party was a good place to start, right?

Emily arrived, and might even mingle a bit if she felt like.

For now she was scanning the room. Gotta make sure who's around first.

Cade came (with more COMPLETELY LEGITIMATE NO REALLY drinks), looking around and realizing he was of the few guys here.

Excellent! Maybe he could get them to play a kissing game.

Raven hadn't been to a party in ages, so she was here in her adorable fifties best. Yes, she well knew by now that it was decades out of fashion, but she still wasn't 100% on what was in fashion, and besides, it was adorable.

It was also actual cloth. No technical nudity for this party.

Anya made her way in slowly, wondering if it had been a good idea to show up.

People, drinks, parties...it had been a while.

Mercy decided she should get out and do a little socializing. Plus there was pizza, so...

Re: Arrive and Perhaps Even Mingle

[justbeingbay]

Bay was not late; she was just ... fashionable.

Shut up

She helped herself to a slice of pizza and a soda and prepared to get her mingle on.

Food and Drinks

[craftyladyparts.livejournal.com]

There's a table off to the side with plenty of moddable food and plenty of moddable drinks.

Some of those moddable drinks have no labels, just in case Big Brother is watching. Because Jessica has trained under Nick Fury and she assumes that Big Brother is always watching. Also, squirrels.

Re: Food and Drinks

[reven8e.livejournal.com]

Food? Food.

Drinks? Drinks.

But Emily was going to pace herself with the less than legal beverages (because there were those, don't lie to yourself) because the game was fun when you were sober to play it.

[regretiz4suckas.livejournal.com]

Kenzi wandered in and brightened when she saw food. Woo! When she realized what games were being played, she decided to stay. Heh.

Re: Food and Drinks

[whenshewasnice]

Okay, so Natalie had really only wandered up here because she was out of practice with wearing heels, and walking up several flights of stairs had seemed like an okay challenge.

But she decided to stick around for a second. This beat being alone, even if she wasn't super social. As evidenced by her decision to stick around the food and drinks for a while. In her heels, yes. No, they technically didn't go with her casual, comfy outfit, and yet she made it look good all the same.

She had some fortunate stats in that regard.

Victor glanced either way before claiming one of the unlabeled drinks. It was Saturday and he was basically 18; this made for a perfect reason to sip at something with absolutely no identifying makrs.

Games

[craftyladyparts.livejournal.com]

To keep people entertained. I Never is a given, and others are possible if anyone has suggestions.

Games: I Never

[craftyladyparts.livejournal.com]

Usual rules. One person gives an "I never" prompt, people respond to the prompt with drinking (if they have done it) or not drinking (if they haven't), Irony makes note of who doesn't drink when, and then we have stuff to do for a week!

Wait, those last two points aren't the usual rules....

Games: Spin the Bottle

[makemyownway.livejournal.com]

Why yes, there was Cade with an empty bottle of...soda, sure...and a hopeful look on his face.

Hey, he thought the odds were pretty good in his favor here. Even if he didn't get kissed, the probability of two girls kissing each other was very high!

He was a genius!*


*This was not true.

OOC

[craftyladyparts.livejournal.com]

I'm around all day if you need anything! If anyone has other game ideas, feel free to throw them out or just drop them in the games thread.

Thank you in advance for any and all prompts given to Irony to tackle.
