[Warded to Sophomores]
Pros of Regular Prom

Less likely to get in trouble for breaking school rules

Less likely to find yourself trapped in an endless nightmarescape

Less likely to die of starvation and exposure

The theme is kind of cool

It's at a freaking gothic mansion

Pros of Anti-Prom

You could become the thrall of a fantastic mystical creature that, even if it's actually hideous, will make you believe it's beautiful.

It's more dangerous so technically more cool.

Outdoor dances are more romantic, I think.

When you die, you're pretty much guaranteed to be famous assuming they don't just cover all this up.

When you account for the possibility of drowning or contracting ebola, starvation and exposure aren't that bad in comparison.

The Masque of Red Death definitely took place in a mansion and not a forest.

I hope this helps everyone's decision-making process.

I'm just weighing the options. Threat of mortal peril seems to appeal to a lot of our friends and I want to make sure they're educated in what type of death they're staring down, depending on the venue.

Ok but we're not gonna get the upperclassmen to stop calling us babies if we call each other babies

Sophomores

[odder]

So that's settled. Anti-prom it is.

Sophomores

[magitechnically]

Noooo, Jade, you too????

Sophomores

Glad to be of service. You will make a lovely bride to a fearsome wood-dwelling monstrosity.

Sophomores

You'll get your nice shoes muddy.

Okay, okay, who is going to REGULAR prom and who is going to ANTI prom??? Why do we have to have more than one prom?? I want to go to whatever one all my friends are going to??
And why is PROM in the Grotto okay but trying to stop 2 is dumb

[...]

And who doesn't have a DATE yet?? We're all FRIENDS so everyone should be able to go together with someone if they want??? Like it's not like you have to KISS someone just because you're going together??? You can just be CLUE SOLVING BUDDIES???

Next year if campus hasn't disappeared into the fog, lost to time forever, there'll be personalizes proms for each student.

Sophomores

[racingstripe]

I'm DEFINITELY going to regular prom. I hope we're not the ONLY sophomores there!

Sophomores

[stclair]

My ONLY DATE is a sense of foreboding.

Also art???? Art ALWAYS have to come first, Essie!!!!!

Sophomores

Well, I was planning on going to prom, but dying in the woods seems like a good way to stick it to my dad for dragging me to the man.

Re: Sophomores

[pintsizedsass]

I don't have a date! Mainly because I keep forgetting to think about it? I've been really focused on Quidditch and making this Brass alias thing into a working ensemble lol

"You could become the thrall of a fantastic mystical creature that, even if it's actually hideous, will make you believe it's beautiful."

Honestly???? My IDEAL WOMAN.

What can I say, I know my audience. You and Jade can have a double wedding.

I need your quick opinion on three theoretical options for reassuring our friends while still getting to do what we want:

1. We tell them we're going to anti-prom because we've committed to this joke, but we actually just hang around Azurcrest and commiserate over our romantic woes.


2. We tell them we've seen the error of our ways and will just hang around Azurcrest, and then go to anti-prom when they've let their guards down.


3. We tell them we're going to anti-prom, hint that we're actually going to hang around Azurcrest all night but can't say so because we're committed to this joke, but then actually end up going to anti-prom anyway.

I'm on a roll building my MOXIE and FOOLHARDINESS stats. I don't want to stop now.

Sophomores

[bubblewrapped]

Anti-Prom is the prom for you, then. Regular prom is major xp for PRACTICALITY, which'll majorly drop your FOOLHARDINESS stat. It was nice knowing you.

Sophomores

[longcons]

We could not move as a homogenous unit.

Sophomores

[racingstripe]

But why

Sophomores

[colemoss]

i'm starting to think we shouldn't have either. honestly.

Sophomores

[bubblewrapped]

A fair opinion, but even if you stay in your cabin there's still a chance the stuff in the forest will come and "invite" you to "dance." Best to be proactive about your impending doom, I say.

Sophomores

[nothalfplaid]

Well now you made it a tough choice.

Sophomores

[bubblewrapped]

I just want you guys to have all the facts.

Sophomores

[orangepip]

Those pros don't sound very positive?

Sophomores

[bubblewrapped]

I prefer to think of the glass as half full.

Sophomores

[untarnish]

This doesn't seem like it needed to be the 26-page discussion it's turned into.

Sophomores

[magitechnically]

Which one are you going to??

Sophomores

[quickbuck]

Everyone PICK which prom you're going to so I can figure out which one I want to go to

Sophomores

[bubblewrapped]

You guys should add a column to your spreadsheet for anticipated prom location. Easier to keep track.
