NOVEMBER GROTTO PARTY

NOVEMBER GROTTO PARTY

There's still a light snowfall as the sun sets, but adrenaline must be keeping some of the students warm as one by one they sneak out into the woods to the Grotto.

The Grotto is always warmer than you expect it to be, although the chill and snowflakes encourage everyone to cuddle close to their friends and dates. The bonfire is large and ambitious, and it reflects off the white snow, making for a warm and seasonal party. Alcohol is widely available to anyone who wants it, and some thoughtful students also made sure there was plenty of water and soda. By the fire is a conjured table hosting Quidditch Beer Pong.

Inside the stone building, things get downright cozy. There's one odd discovery, though: Laurel Templeton's flag! It appears to be stuck hard with magic, so taking it back will be a problem. Regardless of this, many students sit down on blankets and pillows to keep themselves off the cold dirt floor. A circle gathers around a single glass bottle, and kissing games take place on and off throughout the night.

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, feel free! Obviously, get the permission of all involved characters first.

» Before the Party: Classes drag on and on, and then after dinner students have a scant two hours of prep. Primping, pre-gaming, or just impatiently waiting for 7:00.

» Around the Fire: The large bonfire is warm and romantic. Pull up a log and grab a blanket, or dance to the party music. You can contest for control of the music, but don't make it weird, guys. (That means you two, Diego and Katya. We know what you listen to.) 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, guys, seriously.

» 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: This is where to post your character's reaction to their Spin the Bottle and Seven Minutes in Heaven Assignments!

• 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.

» Quidditch Beer Pong: Not far from the bonfire, Sy Stoker has set up a table with three yellow hoops sitting on a rectangular box, which will randomly release a miniature Golden Snitch. (Sort of like this, but slightly less janky-looking.) Nearby is a supply of red ping pong balls, Solo cups, and a waterproof signup sheet. Rules have been posted in Sy's journal. Winners will be determined through RNG (Marin will roll 1–50 for each player, best team total wins).

» The Woods: Don't wander too far. Is it just me, or do you keep getting the sensation of being watched from beyond the trees?

» After the Party: The further you get from the Grotto, the colder it gets. Brr! Did you make it back to your cabin? Did someone else put you up for the night?

STRONG/BLOOD

Okay so clearly they'd do this. The evil duo needs to fight it out over this sort of nonsense except Trixie, due to allergies, can't drink beer. She will be participating with empty cups but a row of shots of tequila lined her side of the table. It's about to get real in Trixie's world and she isn't backing down. Come on, Blood. Let's do this shit.

Re: STRONG/BLOOD

[hisshiss]

Robin says he drinks tequila for breakfast he can do this shit.

Robin doesn't and he doesn't have great aim because he should really wear glasses you guys but WHATEVER HE'S DOING IT ANYWAYS

STRONG/BLOOD

"I have a low body weight but high tolerance!" Trixie says happily even if it might not be totally true. Sorry Wing, she might need a ride home.

STRONG/BLOOD vs. DE LUCA/WOLFHART

[goosemods]

The Ribbonfishies wanted to go again, so they're going again!!



ARMSTRONG/YOUNGBLOOD WINS, which is good because Kurt and Ursula are probably drunk as skunks now. Although after that much tequila, Trixie and Robin probably are too, so really everyone wins.

STRONG/BLOOD vs. DE LUCA/WOLFHART

[cecaelian]

LMAO. SORRY KURT.

[puphart]

THEY HAD A GOOD RUN.

THEY LEARNED A LOT OF THINGS.

THEY HAVE GROWN AS PEOPLE AND PROBABLY ALSO AS FRIENDS.

Kurt counts this as a victory and informs Ursula that he needs a break, perhaps for the rest of the party, before teetering off toward the fire.

[lfmkarapst.insanejournal.com]

Hell yeah, Trixie wants to keep going.

[hisshiss]

ROBIN WILL KEEP GOING. He'll also fucking die after another round but whatever it's a party.

[lfmkarapst.insanejournal.com]

HE CAN WUSS OUT AND HAVE BEER.

[hisshiss]

ok no that's cool he can be a wuss, he's totally okay with being a wuss

[lfmkarapst.insanejournal.com]

Wuss is wuss but it's okay. Trixie gonna carry this shit.
