BRO BIRTHDAY BASH

[goosemods]

BRO BIRTHDAY BASH

The Grotto is adorned with orange floating lights, and at the center of it is the two thrones set aside for Casey Patterson and Jacob Wood. The music playing in is a rowdy dance mix, clearly designed to suit Casey's taste and style, and the orange lights that float about pulse in time with the beat.

The weather continues to improve, but it's been windy lately. Oddly enough, the air around the Grotto is much calmer. There's still a breeze, though, and it carries the smoke from the bonfire into the faces of people sitting in the wrong place. Ugh! Every once in a while, the wind shifts, and you can smell the thick pine trees around the Grotto very distinctly.

Late in the night, as things are winding down, there's an unexpected sighting: a shooting star. This must mean good things, right? Make a wish.

RULES

• You must use your new character journals to participate in this IC/OOC.


• The party starts at 7:00, and runs until 12:00. The prefects are still strictly enforcing curfew.


• Prefects: assume the system of on- and off-duty prefects is still in place. You may choose if your prefect is on or off duty, or if they’re going to show up at 12:30 AM to write up curfew breakers.


• If your character attends this party, they qualify for the Amnesia Event!

RULES

1. Teen peer pressure (and player sadism) aside, no one is obligated to do anything they don't want to. Characters doing Seven Minutes In Heaven can spend the time just talking or staring awkwardly at each other, and characters playing Spin The Bottle can opt out of a kiss (although people will probably boo).


2. If characters get up to anything more racy than PG-13, please fade to black on that! This includes sexually explicit conversations. Many people track IC/OOC posts, so please have consideration for your fellow players. Talking about sex is fine (and part of the flavour of a teen game), but there's no need to get into detailed descriptions of anatomy or sex acts.


3. If you'd like to say two characters were partners in STB or 7MIH in addition to what's been rolled, go ahead! Obviously, get the permission of all involved characters first.

» Before the Party: It's time for Casey and Jacob's birthday party! Knowing how Coppertale does it, this might be a wild night.

» Around the Fire: The large bonfire is warm and romantic. Pull up a log and grab a blanket, make some s'mores, or dance to the party music. There's a karaoke setup for anyone who feels bold enough to sing along. If you don't care for music, there's beer and soda in the ice chests, along with bins for empty bottles and cans. Don't litter. This isn't your home. Some bold students are even doing body shots as the temperature is continuing to rise, and lifting your shirt is no longer going to result in freezing to death.

» the birthday boys: Swing by and say happy birthday to Casey and Jacob! They've been given the traditional shitty crowns and makeshift thrones.

» Quidditch Beer Pong: Not far from the bonfire, Sy Stoker has set up a table with Quidpong. Nearby is a supply of red ping pong balls, Solo cups, and a waterproof signup sheet. Post your character/team under this heading to call for a challenger! Ask a friend to post results for you, or use the honour system. :)

» truth or shot: The rules are simple: tell the truth, or take a shot. Post your characters to this comment with their name in the header, and other characters will ask you uncomfortable questions.

» inside the building: This may be where the kissing games are taking place, but there's still some room to just snuggle and chat.

» Kissing Games:

• Spin The Bottle: Everyone sits in a circle and takes turns spinning the bottle to find their partner. Anyone who squeezes in (or happens to be accidentally standing behind a gap in the circle) gets a shot at a kiss. People can leave and enter the game at any time. Participants will be encouraged by their drunken classmates to kiss on the mouth.


• Seven Minutes in Heaven: "Heaven" is a narrow, closet-sized room adjacent to the main party, and is dark except for some cracks of light from the door. (The "door" being a heavy wooden board that's propped against the doorway and magically "locked" for seven minutes.) You can use your wand to get more light, but really, you two should be making out.

» The Woods: The prefects probably won’t let you wander too far in, but why would you want to anyway?

» the shooting star: Make a wish! If your character makes a wish (they do not need to say it out loud, just tell us what it is) something might happen to help them get what they want.

» After the Party: At midnight, prefects will be clearing the party and guiding everyone home. Don't walk back alone! Anyone left at 12:30 AM when the second wave of prefects hits the Grotto will be written up for punishment.

TRUTH OR SHOT

[goosemods]

LEVI!!

[gdilevi]

Levi's trying not to get too hammered because there's still a Quidditch game on Sunday BUT he'll play for a little while. He might go babymode and swap to juice at some point.

(Sorry to drop my characters and run, but I have work in half an hour. I'll participate and ask questions later tonight!)

ENNIS!!

[sheepish]

Something that will get him drunk faster? Yes, please. He's playing this for a little while before his STB rounds, because that's a healthy mindset.

Sylla

[sylla]

SIGH oh well. If this is the price she has to pay to potentially learn dirt on her classmates, so be it.

Penelope

[get_fucked]

Penny is going for gold tonight drink wise. There's really no better way to get plastered prett quickly than Truth or Shot! So she joins in pretty soon after she gets to the party.

Etta

[unregrettable]

Etta has nothing to hide. Okay, maybe that's not entirely true. STILL. Bring it on, Gooseberrians.

Oscar

[dumb_ass]

Oscar is SO DOWN for Truth or Shot. He has missed all the other opportunities to play this game but heard it is massive fun. He makes sure to see if Bianca wants to play and if its okay if he does because this is their ~date~ after all.

CASEY

[sunsoutgunsout]

CASEY'S PLAYING EVERY GAME HE POSSIBLY CAN TONIGHT AND THIS IS ONE OF THEM!

Tabs

[caritasmitis]

Dom

[thecourtier]

Will

[notacad]

Jo

[fillefidele]

JACOB

[shirtsoptional]

THIS WASN'T COMPLETELY TERRIBLE THE LAST TIME HE PLAYED BUT HE'S ALSO PROBABLY A LOT MORE DRUNK THIS TIME.

Ursula

[cecaelian]

Ursula adores this game and will have questions for everyone.... later.

ADDY

[addytives]

Loves this game but is playing in Prefect Mode aka sprite is her vodka. Sorry friends.

Cole

[colemoss]

Cole isn't certain why he's playing this game, but [Volunteer] told him to and so he is! He doesn't see what the big deal is, though. It's just telling the truth.

Clem!

[neattrick]

SHOTS SHOTS SHOTS (She's mostly here to try to get the Azurcrest quidditch players drunk SORRY Y'ALL)

Ariadne

[untarnish]

Ariadne doesn't drink. Her solo cup is a prop. She's also not gonna answer any of these questions truthfully and just lie thru her teeth. Feel free to try to call her on it.

Calvin

[evercreep]

Calvin's not letting Cole do this alone, so here he is.

Diego

[indiefolk]

Sorry, Ravi.

He might be sensible and switch to juice eventually.

Jeremy

[jerras]

Currently in 'needs to be a little more drunk before kissing games' state. So this sounds like a good idea. (It's really not.)

Chris

[bambae]

Chris isn't trying to get fucked up, because he's got a game sunday, but he drops by to play truth or shot for a minute, just to get a buzz.

Cecil

[choneychurch]

Cecil comes to sit with Addy and drink Sprite. Prefect solidarity! He offers his friend a warm smile and lifts his shot glass to toast with her. Hopefully, he'll be able to answer some of the questions, anyway.

Hazel~ (Dropping Hazel and Jaime off here at daycare, I promise I'll ask questions tomorrow <3)

[lilwitchhazel]

Hazel isn't planning on getting trashed so she'll probably be dropping a lot of truth bombs (also she generally gives like zero craps about sharing). Bring it!!

Jaime

[lupofiasco]

This idea is terrible and Jaime knows it and yet, here he is, tipsy and ready to go.
