10 YEAR REUNION

[goosemods]

10 YEAR REUNION

Headmistress Bloom as since retired, and the school has been handed over to Ms. Vector officially. She greets students with... well, what passes for warmth from Ms. Vector. It's much closer to pride, to be honest. She commends them all on their accomplishments, and speaks of Gooseberry's tradition of turning out the brightest witches and wizards. Gooseberry graduates shape the future of the magical world. [Captain/Prefect Volunteer A] was approached by the school a while ago, and gives a speech to the class about everyone's accomplishments.

The Lodge is decorated with photographs of all the graduates from their high school years. It highlights accomplishments, bonding activities, prom dates over the years, etc.

There are two goals to the reunion: catching up with your old friends, and getting roped into helping the school. The staff are very interested in seeing if some more enterprising students would like to bring their projects to Gooseberry, or potentially join the staff. [Volunteer B] gets into a very serious conversation with their old Head of House about their feelings on teaching for a year or two in their advanced field of study.

During the party, a very drunk [Volunteer C] gives another speech, which is somewhat less professional or coherent than the earlier one.

HOW THIS WORKS:

• Only graduating seniors and their romantic partners may post in this IC/OOC.


• Even if you didn't fill out the planning meme, you can still participate!


• You may NPC spouses and children!


• If you would like to "update" your PB to reflect their new age you may, but it's not required. Keep in mind that if you change your PB for this event, the new adult PB isn't officially reserved forever. That actor/actress could be used for future NPCs, or a younger version of them could be used for a student.


• The festivities start at 6:00 PM, and there's a buffet dinner. Guests may choose to stay overnight in the lodge if they wish.


• At 10:00 PM there will be a party outside on the lake shore & docks that's 21+. Children are not allowed to attend, and if they show up their parents will be asked to take them back to bed. There's an open bar, so feel free to get drunk on Gooseberry's dime.


• Assume there are house elves, staff, etc. who will watch your kids. We just don't want your fake babies at the raunchy party.


• If you want your characters to go elsewhere on campus besides the lake and the lodge, just note it in the subject line. There are some restrictions:
  • While you can visit campsites, all the cabins and washrooms are locked.
  
  
  • All classrooms and storage rooms in the lodge are locked.
  
  
  • You can no longer find the Grotto. It's as though it doesn't exist. The small path you used to take when you were a kid is a very boring, non-magical feeling loop. It makes you feel wistful, though, like thinking about an old toy you lost...


• Everyone who stayed overnight will have a light breakfast before going home at 10:00 AM

» MEET & GREET: Everyone arrives in the atrium of the lodge, which has been decorated with a large banner reading WELCOME BACK, CLASS OF 2014. Everyone's yearbook photos have been displayed proudly in 11x7" on the walls.

» PARTY: The children have all been sent to bed, and the adults head out to the lake shore. There's an open bar and a bonfire, with plenty of seating. Party music that was popular back in 2012-2014 is playing.

» DRINKING GAMES: If you would like to play some drinking games, post them here with the rules! Get these responsible young adults wasted!

» LATE AT NIGHT: If there's anything going on after the partying, be it in your rooms or elsewhere, put it here.

DRINKING GAMES

[goosemods]

TRUTH OR SHOT

[goosemods]

A Gooseberry classic. Post your name in the subject line, and people will ask your character invasive questions. Tell the truth or take a shot!

Tess Noble

[noblewon]

Guess who's not a prefect now?

Re: Tess Noble

[hisshiss]

"What's the most fucked up shit you think we done did see motherfucker?" Robin asks as he takes a shot himself because he has never followed a rule a day in his life, seriously how the fuck are you still employed.

Faye Turner

[whatsthescoop]

You know she's here and drinking irresponsible amounts of alcohol.

Faye Turner

[noblewon]

"What do you miss most about school?" Tess asks.

Faye Turner

[hisshiss]

"Dude who cuts your hair?" Robin asks, which is a weird question considering he cuts his own hair. Who are you asking for?

Quinn Cunningham

[quinning]

She came back because the invite said "open bar."

Quinn Cunningham

[noblewon]

"Dumbest thing you've done drunk since graduation?" Tess asks.

Quinn Cunningham

[hisshiss]

"You should buy a goat." This isn't a question. "Wanna buy a goat?" There's the question. "I got a guy."

Chris Park

[bambae]

KISSING GAMES

[goosemods]

I don't know, maybe some of you have open relationships! I'm not judging!

DAHLIA + OPEN TO ALL AND SUNDRY

[dollywould]

Like Dahlia is in any kind of a relationship, there's no reason not to play spin the bottle with her high school friends, THERE IS NOTHING WEIRD ABOUT THIS AT ALL.

TAKERU + OPEN

[sugiru]

I'm pretty sure I was making worse decisions at twenty-eight and Takeru definitely has more emotions than I do.

TESS + OPEN

[noblewon]

It took surprisingly little alcohol to reach this point.

BOOP-DOOP-DE-BOOP-DOOP-DOOP HAUNTED DOLL WATCH

[rosenkrans]

This isn't a game, this is just Neil drunkenly reading haunted doll listings off Ebay out loud.

(OOC: Marin gave me permission to let Neil have enough of a signal for this. c: Everyone else can too, of course! As always, rule of funny: let your characters have decent or poor access depending on which is most fun for you.)

BOOP-DOOP-DE-BOOP-DOOP-DOOP HAUNTED DOLL WATCH

[alapai]

Anuhea starts snickering before the page has even finished loading. She's not super trashed or anything; this is plain ol' anticipatory laughter. It's completely stupid. Pull it together, ma'am.

BOOP-DOOP-DE-BOOP-DOOP-DOOP HAUNTED DOLL WATCH

[dollywould]

"BUY THAT SHIT," Dahlia hollers from the back of however many people are gathered. "BUY IT OR YOU'RE OUT OF THE BAND."
