Senior Project Mishap
FOAM PARTY!!

It's late afternoon when a loud pop echoes from the Pre-Healer Studies lab out across the lodge. Less than a minute later, green foam pours out and into the hall. In a matter of minutes, the hall outside the Pre-Healer studies classroom and much of the atrium. A few students jump in, thinking this is an impromptu foam party, and quickly find themselves stuck in place.

[Volunteer A] overhears some freshmen gossiping about how the only way to get out of the foam is by kissing someone, because apparently the foam was made with extract from magical mistletoe?? Meanwhile, Essie Morales-Tran has the brilliant idea (which half the school may also be having, concurrently) to try and eat the stuff - and thankfully finds their hand stuck fast in the thick of it before they can scoop some into their mouth. In a valiant but failed escape attempt, Dinah Dixon slips and falls and gets stuck on their back, like a particularly large turtle. On the other hand, Quentin Youngblood manages to get out of their shoes and socks and free themselves from the mess, but now they probably have foot parasites because they're going barefoot (they don't have foot parasites. just...don't let the sophomores see you).

HOW THIS WORKS

• This is a super low key IC/OOC for fun scenes.


• The affected area is the hall where the Pre-Healer Studies classroom is and part of the atrium.


• Danny's senior project is an antiseptic foam designed to quickly fill, seal and disinfect large wounds to stop bleeding. That's not relevant to you. What's relevant to you is that this stuff is experimental. While viscous, is roughly the consistency of shaving cream - maybe a little more gel-like. When it stops moving, it quickly "hardens" into a still bouncy solid foam that is very difficult to escape from as it has a lot of give. It is green in color and has a clean, minty, medical scent.


• The foam can be cut with sharp implements but is sort of rubbery so blunt force doesn't do much good. Vanishing spells sort of work. You'll have to give it a couple of tries. It will break down on its own in a couple of hours (this is unintentional, Danny needs to fix that), but it's reasonable to assume that everyone will be freed and the mess mostly cleaned up by dinner.


• The festivities begin in the late afternoon, after lunch.


• Danny told a freshman that you can only break out of the foam by being kissed, and the freshman went and told her friends as much. Kissing does nothing and there's no magic mistletoe extract in this.......yet.

THE LODGE

[graysanatomyforkids]

Danny sucks and is mean to a freshman

[graysanatomyforkids]

"Shitfuck!" Danny wipes as much of the greenish antiseptic-smelling foam off of his face and torso as he can before it starts to congeal. He rips off his safety goggles, tosses them aside and manages two long steps toward one of the sinks before his feet are stuck firmly in place. A long, luxuriously spun tapestry of expletives follow. It's the sort of expert wordsmithing that calls the attention of other students. Unfortunately for Danny, his audience today is a single freshman.

"You shouldn't cuss," says the girl with the glasses, bouncing into the room and then jolting at the explosion of foam.

"Fuck off and get help." Danny says as the beakers he was working with continue to spew fluffy green goo.

She screws up her face. "Ew." Is she talking about the foam? Danny? Unclear. "Why can't you?"

"I'm stuck." he responds with an impatient sigh. "Dammit- It's the- don't let the foam touch you. It'll harden."

The girl quirks her head to the side and takes a few steps back, away from the encroaching blob. "How're you gonna get out?"

He pauses, here. Expression flattening as the foam rises to his knees. "You know, I'm not, actually. Over the course of our long, satisfying conversation, I've had time to reflect on my life. And I've decided that dying here, choking on my own senior project, is really, ultimately, how I wanted to go out."

She ignores him, backing out of the classroom. "Can I like...vanish it? Or wash it off with Aguamenti?"

Danny rolls his eyes so hard his head lulls back. "No. You know, funny story, only a kiss can break the spell." He glances back at her and she's gazing at him, hopeful. "Jeez- Just, go tell a prefect or a teacher. Go get my girlfriend."

"You don't have a girlfriend." She calls back to him, disappearing from view when the foam spills out into the hall. How does she know? Who is she? Danny isn't even sure what house this girl belongs to. Maybe she's a sophomore, even. Shit, and she's gone.

"Would you just ... go and get help?" He yells after her.

Danny sucks and Stokers are mean to him

[threatens]

Sy normally ignores random yelling around the school unless it sounds like it might be entertaining, and oh fuck yeah, that's definitely the shrill sound of Danny Notoriano in crisis. A short bespectacled girl (freshman? sophomore?) passes Sy in the hall, and noticing his expression, only says "He needs a kiss to break the spell" before continuing on her way. The hell?

Actually getting to where Danny is takes some challenge, as there's weird green foam all over the floor now and Sy is too protective of his orange kicks to walk into that shit. "The fuck is this?" Sy wonders, too loud as usual, just as he gets to the door of the Pre-Healer Studies classroom and sees his least favorite roommate trapped in like a mountain of green shit. He looks completely stuck.

Sy stares at this for a second, then says blandly, "I'm not kissing you."

Catch with Jeffy! (open to multiple)

[racingstripe]

OKAY, so he's, like, stuck?? This isn't the WORST thing that could happen to Jeffy. It's a good excuse to sit down and grade these papers or finish that essay that's due in exactly one hour. But when you move around as much as Jeffy, standing still is KIND of hard. Especially when you're FORCED to stand still.

He gets about one essay done before he pulls out his Quaffle and starts absently tossing it back and forth between his hands. Two essays done and maybe he can still do something productive that ISN'T grading for like five seconds.

One whole journal entry later and Jeffy's legs are wondering why he's not moving and he's got way too much energy and he just needs to do something??? If he doesn't he'll probably just rip his feet right out of this foam and go for a run???

"Hey, CATCH!!" Jeffy shouts to the nearest seemingly game person and tosses his Quaffle in their direction. They're in for such a pleasant(??) surprise when they catch it and it quacks at them.

Yelling with Jeffy and Essie!

[magitechnically]

"NO! Not right NOW!!!" Essie yells across the atrium in response to Jeffy's question. She's been standing like this for less than ten minutes and it already feels like the worst punishment ever for simply having an ADVENTUROUS SPIRIT. But the good news is that her new journal holding freshman BEST FRIEND is stuck ALSO because no good deed goes unpunished.

Hollering continues. "I meant at BREAKFAST!!! Can't you read what I WROTE???"

Bad Baby Bird Baffles

[magitechnically]

So like REALLY if there was a giant marshmallow blob coming toward you, then is there REALLY any other option than to try to eat it??? Like the bottom is probably all gross and stuff, but the TOP is just beautiful shiny sugar and everything smells like MINT??? Which okay so like mint marshmallow isn't something you see every day, but then that just makes it that much more exciting to try??? The Magical Rudiments classroom is somewhere around here, right???

Essie sees a friend across the way and waves excitedly. "HEY, watch this!!! I'm gonna—" And then her newest culinary adventure is thankfully foiled and she's properly punished by being stuck with one hand attempting to scoop up the foam just as it billows around her feet.

Probably the best decision Essie made today was NOT trying to experience firsthand how a marshmallow bath feels to a flying squirrel.

But at least she can still wave at people as they pass by!!! HI!!! Yes, she IS the real Essie Morales-Tran, little sister of Prom Queen 2014 and now Prom Princess nominee 2015!!! Please do your Artificing homework and vote for Jeffy Key that SUPER CUTE boy (also stuck) over there!!!

Trashcan Turtles

[dinahdanger]

The Blob encroaches, the creeping horror slithers ever closer to where DINAH DANGER, NSA AGENT NISHA NITRO, and CHAD COLDCHEEKS are innocently trying to enjoy their afternoon.

But DINAH DANGER isn't that easily caught off-guard. She spies the insidious threat and quite literally LEAPS into action. Tossing her books behind her (they'll only SLOW HER DOWN), she spins, she kicks (at nothing in particular), she goes to VAULT over the couch...

And she eats shit. As Dinah's platform sneakers slip out from under her, she only has enough presence of mind to grab Chad's hair and yank him down with her. If she's lucky, she's trapped him beneath her splayed redwood legs.

Trashcan Turtles

[winterbottom]

Chad very legitimately screeches, there’s no kinder way of saying it, and gets yanked into the foam with Dinah. He tries to flail around in the foam, but he’s very trapped under a pair of legs that he proceeds to lightly hit, in a panic. “Oh my GOD. Move your TREE LEGS.” He whines, but fate itself punishes him and pins his elbows to the floor. Well GREAT.

Mackenzie Spectates

[princeprincess]

Once it's clear that no one can really help the victims, Prefect Prince finds a spot to study where she has a clear view of the worst of the mess. The sounds of shouting and chaos serve as soothing background noise, and she smiles every so slightly every time she recognizes one of the voices. She's never been Daniel Notoriano's biggest fan, but this? This is funny.

Sleepy Girls

[cmdrchloe]

Chloe is at least a little lucky, she supposes with resignation. She isn't on her back and she isn't suffocating, and that's not nothing. Her backpack is only half submerged in foam, and if she could reach her arms over her shoulders at just the right angle, she thinks she could probably unzip it and get out her sketchpad and draw until someone comes along to free her.

Sleepy Girls

[wholegrain]

Georgie was not looking where she was going. Georgie hardly ever looks where she's going, and it's an honest to god miracle she's never broken a bone. Or maybe it's fate.

Hmm. This is a good thing to ponder right now. Might as well. She's trapped in the middle of the hallway, using her very rubbery minty foamy prison to prop herself up.

"Oh! Chloe!" she calls across the hall when she sees her former Best Friend for a Day also very much in a predicament. "Have you ever broken a bone??"
