Subject: Friday

Ben,

Sorry about the cinco de mayo debacle. Hey. Want to come to Sera's party with me? There's this small party thing going on at my friend's house on Friday. I know another party is probably the last thing you want I was wondering if you wanted to go with me. It's just going to be a small group of friends hanging out with their girlfriends and boyfriends. If you don't want to go it's cool, we can just hang out some other time. I just though it might be fun. I won't get drunk this time I swear I'm going to bring my chess set.

-Meka

Characters: Meka Palakiko and Ben Redd
Setting: Ben's room, monday after classes.
Rating: SFW
Summary: Meka and Ben awkward fun tiems!

Meka wasn't quite feeling like herself lately, she felt awkward in her own body, which really wasn't too much of a difference from before. She remembered most of the night, she remembered ditching Sim on the ground in front of Sam's house and stealing his hoodie. She just couldn't remember how she got from debauched point A to debauched point B. She tried to shake it off like it didn't mattered but then so soon after Milo was attacked in the owlery.

She decided she couldn't linger on any of it anymore, she had cried it all out to Stas, which had been incredibly helpful and now she needed to just talk. Pulling on her sneakers and getting her two favorite coffee cups she bounced up to Ben's room and knocked on the door with her foot.

Friday afternoon, a large brown owl delivers a small white box wrapped in antique newspaper to Sibyl's room. There is a small white card taped to the front that merely reads:

"Merry Christmas."

Summary: It's the Snowflake Ball!

The main hall of the Crescent City Institute had been completely transformed for the school's annual Snowflake Ball. Instead of a grand, but rather bland, hall, there was now an utterly festive atmosphere. A giant tree was the focal point now, decorated with real icicles and pine needles, and tiny fairies sitting politely on the ends of branches to provide a twinkling effect. Pillars were festooned with garlands and ribbon, tables set up with snowy white tablecloths, and the floor had been charmed to give off a low, misty effect. It was an effect that went well with the effect placed on the ceiling.

This was Louisiana, after all, and it wasn't often that they got heavy snow. But for tonight at least, there was snow at CCI. Or rather, in CCI. Snow fell prettily from the enchanted ceiling, warm and not wet at all. It evaporated before it hit the floor, but there was a charming quality to it as it fell among the Ball's attendees. In some spots, little floating lights, much like will-o-wisps floated amid the falling snow. Here and there, professors walked among the students giving greetings and compliments, and sometimes rebukes, all garbed in their holiday best. Some wore dress robes, others donned more Muggle attire. All in all, it was a beautiful occasion.

Characters: Ben and Amber
Setting: In the hallway, during lunch. Outside of Latin, possibly?
Content: Tentatively NSFW. Amber is a dirty hooker.
Summary: Amber is a creepster, and Ben is creepy. Stuff happens? Although, probably not. RUN AWAY, BEN.

Ben usually took his time when leaving Latin class. He had no interest in getting caught up in the rush for lunch, but he usually also had no interest in conversing with any of the stragglers. It was a strange balance that he'd worked out, and quite possibly just a little bit sad that he was neurotic enough to think about it in that much detail.

He lumbered on to his locker, having no interest in the Sonnier Cafeteria. He might make his way over later but at this time of day it was usually full of students comparing rather unimpressive results for jinxes, the latest video games, test scores, sketch-books, whatever. These were supposed to be his people, but even then he felt a little disconnected from them.

Sighing, as he did often, he opened his locker and began rummaging around his books.

Characters:Meka and Open!
Setting:Saturday afternoon, the woods on the school grounds
Rating:PG, it's Meka
Summary: Meka sneaks out to the woods again for a smoke break and some art

Meka had brewed her coffee and started working on her latest art project for class but she had already hit a block. After throwing herself on her bed and rolling around for at least fifteen minutes she forfeited to the nicotine craving that was poking her in the side and pulled on her hoodie.

She made her way across the school grounds with all of her art supplies, her cup of black coffee and of course her cigarettes. She settled down at the base of her favorite tree and struck a match match. She closed her eyes, enjoying the first drag of her cigarette.

Summary: It's the Homecoming Dance!

It was finally the night of of the Homecoming Dance; the second big night of the week that the students of Crescent City had been waiting for. The big game against the Badlands school had been a great success for House Beauregard, and the banner strung over the stage of the hall congratulated the team on their victory. It was the same stage that held a small band providing the music for the evening entertainment, and would be the site of the court results later on.

The hall itself was decorated in the masquerade theme of the evening, accented with hints of gold and green in honor of Beauregard. There was plenty of seating available around the dance floor for students to relax and mingle, as well as plenty of food and refreshment. All in all it was to be a rather splendid evening at the Homecoming Midnight Masquerade.

[OOC: Please add your character's tag to the scene as they enter! Please keep in mind that there are faculty members about, so all questionable acts should be taken outside of the dance hall. Those caught drinking alcohol, fighting, or getting freaky will be punished! ]
