ANON POST PARTY

HOW THIS WORKS

This is not an anti-anon post party. It's just a party taking place at the same time as the anonymous post.

You don't need to surrender your journal to attend.

It's taking place at Azurcrest.

If you do want to surrender your journal, however, there's a trunk that Cecil Honeychurch, Ravinder Dhaliwal and Diego Morales have enchanted to only open for the three of them when they're all present. At the beginning of the party, you can give them your journals and they'll leave them locked up for the night. Diego says the only downside is that if one of the three of them dies, you'll never get your journal back. It's unclear if he's joking or not.

The party starts at sunset, just as the anonymous writer is expected to appear. It'll go until the anon post dies down, around 1 or 2 AM.

As this is taking place at a campground, if you plan on drinking or smoking, you need to be covert about it. There will be a Naughty Children section of the party where you can sneak off to drink. If you don't get shit faced and wander into the main party area, you'll be fine.

Kissing games are self-serve. Post your character under the header, and reply to the people your character "randomly" kissed.

» BEFORE THE PARTY: Students are antsy, as Saturday has been a long day of nothing, which will be immediately followed by a lot of excitement. A party, the anon post, and tomorrow the game!

» OPTIONAL JOURNAL LOCKUP: If your character would like to avoid the temptation to look at the anonymous post, reply here letting us know they locked up their journal. There will be no consequences for doing so, except that if you do, you may not reply to the anonymous post with the character in question.

» AROUND THE FIRE: The fire pit has been lit, and there are plenty of benches and blankets around it to sit on. Roast marshmallows, hang out with your friends, listen to music, etc.

» KISSING GAMES: A handful of students gather around an empty beer bottle to partake in Spin the Bottle and Seven Minutes in Heaven. People puzzle for a little over what to use in lieu of a closet, and settle on a tiny clearing off the path, hidden by trees. It's a favorite outdoor makeout spot up at Azurcrest.

» THE CABINS: You can only enter a cabin by invitation.

» NAUGHTY CHILDREN: Some students are dissatisfied by the dry party, and slip off to a little spot behind the senior girls' cabin. It's very secluded, and gives an impressive view of the forest beyond the cliffs. Here you're free to indulge in illegal substances, as long as you're smart about it.

» TRUTH OR SHOT: A game of good old Truth or Shot breaks out in the secret party within a party. A bottle of whiskey is passed around to the people being asked questions, so really it's more "Truth or Swig".

» OOC - Questions, comments, concerns!

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

She's not even disappointed they might not kiss. Maybe she messed it up by suggesting something else entirely, but Isabelle is not quite the kind of person to make the first move. "I don't care. Um. Talk. Seven minutes seems like a lot of kissing. Maybe a this-was-nice kiss after, I don't know." Stop rambling Issy, for the love of God. "Tell me about yourself? The quick Todd-Run down, in less than seven minutes."

She's definitely neverous about the kissing stuff, and now he's getting interviewed, apparently? Which is fine, because he honestly loves talking about himself. And he doesn't want to pressure her or anything. "Probably less than three and a half, right? You gotta take a turn too," he says, taking a beat to compose his self-pitch.

"Alright, so," he begins. "I'm from Henderson, Nevada. It's Las Vegas adjacent. My family's all nomajs and they had no idea magic even existed. I probably wouldn't have either, but Cash's family lives in the same subdivision as mine and he figured it out super-fast and just told me. I thought he was full of it for sure. Uh... my dad's a civil engineer, my mom's a 911 dispatcher, and my sister wants to be a nurse but she's dumb as a sack of rocks. She did just spring to get my car fixed, though, so maybe I shouldn't be so mean to her." (At this point in time, he stops to catch his breath, and Issy has a chance to interject. If she doesn't, he'll just keep talking.)

Right, right, she has to talk about herself too. She's not very good at that, but Todd easily gets right on it and she laughs when he mentions his sister, because she can totally relate to having sometimes shitty siblings.

"That's nice of her, yeah. I'm from all over. Utah, Washing, California, Georgia, Indiana, Illinois, South Carolina, Tennessee, but we're settled in North Dakota right now. My parents are both wizards so I knew what I was growing up. My dad makes astrological instruments and my mom's a housewife now. My sister is a healer and my brother just got an internship with my dad's company. I'm the youngest, by a bit." That's kind of all she has to say about herself, really. "What do you do for fun?"

"That's a lot of places," Todd comments maladroitly when Issy finishes speaking. He's a much better talker than a listener. As for what he does for fun, the question hangs him up, and he glances towards the trees as he tries to think of an appropriate answer. "Cash likes whittling," he finally says after a second, as if Cash's interests and his interests are one in the same.
