New Years Eve Party
Characters: EVERYONE
Setting: Sam's house in New Orleans.
Rating: Let's be honest... NSFW
Summary: CCI kids welcome the New Year

Sam wasn't even sure he wanted to host a New Year's Eve party after his last night of the semester. It took some serious bro time and about ten pounds of candy corn, but he was finally cheered up enough to invite the upper academy to his house to celebrate the new year. He and Marina had spent setting up the house, making food, and convincing their parents that the house was not going to get wrecked while they were away.

A few charms and the house was glowing with silver snow flakes and 2011 balloons. The house was ready to go, parent free, and just waiting for the guests to arrive.

Snowflake Ball 2010
Characters: Everyone!
Setting: Friday, December 10th, 2010
Rating: We know our players. I would consider this NSFW juuuuust in case.
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.

Secret Santa: To Sam
Monday after classes, a plastic bag with a large box inside is left hanging on the handle of Sam's dorm room. The bag can only be removed from the handle by Sam, and the note is stuck inside of the box.

 Characters: Rowan and Casey
Setting: Monday, November 8th, after dinner in the Sonnier Common Room
Rating: SFW most likely
Summary: Rowan and Casey finally discuss that happened. There is photo evidence.

Their schedules hadn't meshed quite as well as Rowan had hoped, so it was almost a month before she and Casey both had some time free so they could chat.  Rowan had developed the photos and been quite shocked at what she saw.  That whole evening at Charlie's party, Rowan had been taking pictures left and right, not wanting to miss things.  It appeared though that she had started to just take random photographs of various groupings of people without really seeing what she was shooting.

She sat nervously in one of the larger chairs in her house common room, and thumbed through the photos once more before putting them in her bag beside her.  She had known that Casey was a bit on the intoxicated side that night, and hadn't been quite sure what he would remember, if anything, of what had happened.  Now she knew, and she felt like she was going to be the bearer of bad news.  Hopefully he wouldn't be too shocked by what he saw.  Maybe he even knew already.  She could hope at least.  She pulled a bag of cookies and a soda out of her bag and waited for the Beauregard boy to join her.

(Thread) Halloween Party (EVERYONE)
Characters: Everyone!
Setting: Saturday, October 30th
Rating: We know our players. I would consider this NSFW for safety.
Summary: It's the Halloween Celebration!

It was Cabbage night and the students were out in full force. The Commons were decorated for the festivities including a black lit dance floor with a fog machine, bobbing for apples, and a haunted forest. Professor Neviah Socorro was dressed as a gypsy and doing tarot readings for the students.

There was a small bonfire being kept by the groundskeepers and refreshments being served nearby. Pumpkin juice, hot cider, pumpkin pie, candy apples, cookies with spider web designs, and other spooky foods were being served along with a plethora of chocolate frogs jumping around.


[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! This counts towards OCTOBER activity check!]

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.

Characters: Casey and OPEN
Setting: The commons, Thursday before dinner
Content: Worksafe probably
Summary: See Casey. See Casey walk. See Casey walk while reading. See Casey bump into someone.

The day was nice enough, even if it was a bit on the cloudy side. Nice enough to be outside with a book he picked up over summer vacation and just now had the opportunity to start reading. It was a sort of mindless book, but it was entertaining. He'd gotten a good way through it after a while of sitting on one of the benches. Naturally, he'd done so after changing out of the clothes he wore for Opposite day.

Casey knew dinner was approaching soon enough. Truth be told, his stomach knew more than he did. He was in the middle of an amusing list the first time his stomach grumbled slightly. So he dug out the already half-eaten bag of M&Ms from his pocket, kept the book open with one hand, and headed off casually towards Beauregard. The downside of reading while walking was that you really couldn't see where you were going.
