MAY GROTTO PARTY
MAY GROTTO PARTY
It's clear, upon stepping into the Grotto, that someone has particular hopes for this Sunday's game. Orange dominates the decorations: the budding tree branches are strung with orange streamers (magicked to vanish after a few hours, making cleanup easy) and the Solo cups have been charmed orange and black. Also, the glitter-painted banner saying "COPPERTALE PRE-VICTORY PARTY" is kind of a giveaway. Sylvester Stoker is one of the first faces you'll see entering the Grotto, and he looks very smug about it.
In the name of fairness, other people get into the impromptu decorations within the first hour of the party. Veronica Powers transfigures half of those tree streamers with Ebonhide colours, with the addition of magical sparkles, so the plum and gold catches the light even after the sun lowers below the horizon. [Azurcrest Volunteer B] uses magic to tint all the cans and bottles with bright Azurcrest colours, and Diego Morales creates a hundred floating blue and white lights that pulse in time with the music. Meanwhile, Ivy Templeton conjures green and coppery balloons to attach to the Grotto's stone house, and Rosemary Stoker vandalizes the banner to say "COPPERTALE CRASH & BURN BASH" instead.
It's spring at Gooseberry, and the Grotto is full of colour. Let's all remember what we're here for: drinking, relaxing, and shit-talking the other team.
» Before the Party: It's one of the last Grotto parties before the end of the year! If you've never gone before, now's your last chance. Come on come on come onnnnn.
» 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.
» Body Shots: It's well and truly spring now, and you know what that means: body shots! Shamelessly getting shirtless in the forest! Licking salt off your attractive classmate's abs!
» Quidpong Championship: Not far from the bonfire, a table's set up with Quidpong. Today, the table will be dominated by a Quidpong tournament organized by Casey Patterson, so sign up before all the spots are gone!
» 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.
» Kissing Games:
» By The Treeline: The prefects probably won’t let you wander too far in, but why would you want to anyway?
» After the Party: At midnight, on-duty 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.

RULES
- 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).
- 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.
- 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 one of the last Grotto parties before the end of the year! If you've never gone before, now's your last chance. Come on come on come onnnnn.
» 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.

» Body Shots: It's well and truly spring now, and you know what that means: body shots! Shamelessly getting shirtless in the forest! Licking salt off your attractive classmate's abs!
» Quidpong Championship: Not far from the bonfire, a table's set up with Quidpong. Today, the table will be dominated by a Quidpong tournament organized by Casey Patterson, so sign up before all the spots are gone!
» 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.
» 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.
» By The Treeline: The prefects probably won’t let you wander too far in, but why would you want to anyway?
» After the Party: At midnight, on-duty 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.
