GALENTINE'S DAY



GALENTINE'S DAY

Who needs BOYS to have a good Valentine's Day? Literally no one, according to Miss Riley Mae, who has taken it upon herself to bring all you beautiful babes here for Galentine's Day. Come one, come all, to bitch about boys, gush about the dance, braid hair, rage, make sacrifices, makeout and pillow fight in your underwear—you know, normal girl party stuff.

The Grotto is pinked the hell out, a celebration of Riley's favorite color more than Valentine's Day, with lights and streamers and pink lip-shaped pillows inside the building for people to sit on. It's disgusting if you don't like the color pink. It's par for the course if you've met Riley before.

There's a table with booze off to the side that looks like, at one point in time, was intended to be something of a mimosa station until Riley realized she would have to get champagne from Logan and lost interest. There are still several champagne flutes and lots of juices, there's just a haphazard collection of other alcohols there instead of champagne. Which is obviously better.

The building is host to makeovers, kissing games, and, apparently board games, and y'all better get to partying before curfew! It is, regrettably, still a school night.

HOW THIS WORKS

  • There are games of Spin the Bottle and Seven Minutes in Heaven in their usual place, but I'm not rolling any matches for anyone. Kiss who you want! Take over the closet if you want! It's a party!

  • Riley will be doing makeup and nails! Or she'll just allow access to her extensive and slightly trashed nail and makeup kits if you want to do it yourself. I will try and do personalized responses to makeover requests, but you can also assume Riley is just MIA sometimes. It's a party and she's drinking.

  • The party will still end at 10:00 PM, just like a regular Grotto party. Someone carry Riley home. And someone else please clean up after.


PARTY PARTY PRINCESS

  • There are old sleepover classic board games going on inside the building, around the edges of any kissing games going on. Who cares if most of these girls are too young to be feeling nostalgic, don't you want to play?

  • Ursula de Luca got her mother to send Pretty Pretty Princess, and you can play too! Fill out the form, post it here, and see how you did. I will keep rolling as long as you want so everyone can get that coveted crown.

  • The rules for Pretty Pretty Princess are here, but you don't need to know them OOCly to play with us. You're just trying to get a full set of jewelry and a crown (but not the black ring!) before your friends, because the winner is a pretty pretty princess, and the losers are all ugly ugly urchins.

  • There are other games, too! Mall Madness, Dream Phone, something with a whole bunch of sugar packets, whatever you can think of! Riley got her older siblings to send some to her, but, as these are Stampers we're talking about, most of them do not have all their pieces or rules included. I will not RNG these and characters are encouraged to just make up their own rules and find a way to include drinking.

  • Don't you dare lose any of these plastic pieces of jewelry.


BEFORE THE PARTY: The all important "what are you wearing?" section.

DURING THE PARTY: Pop music is blasting, and there's no weird movie playing, but otherwise it's your standard Grotto party. But with No Boys Allowed. They'll just stink up the place.

  • KISSING GAMES: You don't need boys to play Spin the Bottle and Seven Minutes in Heaven, but these are a la carte. Make your own matches!

  • OTHER GAMES: Drinking games can go here, but let's play Pretty Pretty Princess.

  • MAKEOVERS: Take a seat on the stone steps outside and Riley will slap some makeup on you. If she happens to be around!

  • AFTER THE PARTY: Did you stay and clean up? Or did anyone need to get carried home? Hope all the strong girls stayed relatively sober.

    Tally might not have gotten to Avery first, but she's not letting her get away until she's smooched her. Pucker up!

    January & Tally

    [personal profile] heresie 2018-02-19 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
    Tally spun the bottle many, many times and never landed on January. But she's enterprising. She gets up and taps the older girl on the shoulder. "Excuse me," she says. "Would you like to kiss?"

    Tally spins Tuesday when she was aiming for a senior girl. This doesn't count towards her kiss competition, but she's not above extracurricular kissing.

    Tally spins Riley three separate times. By the third time she's getting suspicious. "Did you rig this?" she asks, but she sounds more impress than annoyed.

    When Marie sees how nice Eileen looks, she feels inspired to beautify for her big senior crush, buuuuuut she doesn't have any lipstick, so she kinda just lets her strawberry Mike's Hard Lemonade wash over her lips for a few seconds? It actually almost sort of works.

    Tutu, you're not a senior, but you are absolutely a kiss party staple for Marie, and she can't leave the Grotto without making sure she does at least one kiss on you real, real good. Do you want to play kiss tag with her and Tally, by the way??? You should, except Marie is definitely going to win.

    Tally remembered her lipstick and it's Ladykiller Red. Get ready for a messy smooch, Eileen.

    She plays this game for... a very long time... so she's open to many many smoochies.

    You're all very beautiful and have lovely auras. Except you. Your aura needs work. You can still get a kiss though.

    [personal profile] prophesie 2018-02-19 11:47 pm (UTC)(link)
    Does her aura need work??? That's so upsetting???? As a very powerful and accomplished mystic, Marie knows an ugly aura aura she sees one (HIERONYMUS) and she's super upset at the idea that maybe she could be a weird yellow on the inside too???

    This sufficiently distracts her from her kissquest for a moment, but don't mistake her — she absolutely still does want to make out.

    Is it weird to kiss sophomores? Ehhh. If Eileen has a problem with this normally, she sure doesn't now. She gives Marie a nice big smooch, afterwards looking thoughtful. "Strawb'rry?" she half-slurs curiously. Nice.

    "Cheating," Tally mumbles to herself, but makes no effort to stop her. Not your turn anymore, Patterson!!!

    Eileen is really curious to see what color their lip-meeting will cause (hers is erring on the side of a purple-y berry shade), so she leans in with a bright grin to kiss the other girl.

    [personal profile] heresie 2018-02-19 11:52 pm (UTC)(link)
    Tally's aura definitely needs work, but if she's told as much, she'll just respond with a drunken "Thank you!" and a pair of puckered lips. Kiss please.
    wholegrain: ((*) water is good for you)

    Georgie (Open)

    [personal profile] wholegrain 2018-02-19 11:52 pm (UTC)(link)
    Georgie hums to herself as she gathers up trash from the party. She's found a box to toss the board games in, most of which she assumes belong to the lodge and should go back before Gaming Club notices they're missing. She separates the trash for easy recycling, breaks down the tables, starts pulling down the lights from the trees.

    At no point does she appear to be concerned with how the fuck she's going to carry all of this stuff back out of the Grotto as well as any drunk young ladies in her care. She'll... probably figure it out. It just might take a couple extra trips. There's probably a fox freshman she can borrow for a buddy, even.

    Georgie continues to hum a completely made up tune as a string of pink lights tumble onto her head.

    Hello, Valendate! Ree wants a kiss, though: totes friendly, yo. Though. She'd be willing to take it further, but she's not pushy. So.

    Ree only RECENTLY got out of a relationship and has not kissed any girls in like a YEAR and is fairly sad about that and thus just raring to go. SMOOCHIES, PLEASE?

    JD & Ophelia

    [personal profile] useyournoggin 2018-02-20 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
    When the bottle lands on JD, Ophelia bursts into giggles. It's a regrettable nervous tick that she'll hopefully have grown out of once she's a successful, accomplished auror, but for now she's a drunk teenage girl who's just been asked to kiss a pretty friend. She crawls over to JD, hair a mess and falling in her face. "Don't chicken out," she warns.

    She's got no issue kissing Ree, and slides over to her when the bottle pairs them together.

    "Hey, pretty," Ree says, smiling before going in for the kiss. It's all in fun, sure, but that's no reason not to be complimentary about it.

    JD & Ophelia

    [personal profile] electable 2018-02-20 01:11 am (UTC)(link)
    JD isn't the kind of person to back down from a dare, and she also knows enough about Ophelia to know that getting rejected in front of every girl in school would hurt her feelings, so it's a bad time for JD to have the errant realization that she's never actually kissed... anybody... ever. She's not a big romantic or anything, but she does have a pang of guilt when she realizes that she definitely wants her first kiss to be a real one, and not just because she got drunk at a Grotto party and decided to try her brother's idea of fun on for size.

    "Oh," she says as Ophelia approaches her, looking more than a little tipsy herself, crawling on her knees and with her bright red hair all over the place. "Uhmmm," she hums in response to Ophelia's warning, not really sure what to say now.
