Summary: It's the Sadie Hawkins dance! Ladies choice, so get out there and have some fun!

There was a subtle theme for tonight's Sadie Hawkins dance. No bright lights, or obviously themed decorations. No shaped confetti or strange creatures wandering around dressed in costumes. No costumes were in evidence at all, in fact. There was nothing cheesy or funny or overdone or bright or overt about the hall for tonight's dance.

Instead, tonight, there was soft lighting in places (though not too soft. The chaperones made sure of that), blue and soft gold table decorations and centerpieces, and a dance floor with charmed candles high above to provide light to see and dance by. The candles were charmed to change colors with the music, much the way that Muggle lights were done in dance clubs and the like. It added atmosphere without looking gaudy. Here and there were the teachers who were going to be watching over things for the evening, there was a long refreshment table off to one side, and the tables for sitting and relaxing were staged around the dance floor. All in all, a subtly decorated place where students could come in and dance and mingle.

Characters: Vinnie and Brody
Setting: Beauregard Commons, just around lunchtime
Content: SFW?
Summary: Vinnie is setting up lunch for himself (another care package from momma) and meets Brody along the way

There was nothing like homemade food. Nothing in the world. Especially when you were Italian, and the food came from your grandmother, who was obviously the world's best cook. Second to her was your mother. This was just the way of things in Vinnie's life, and he loved every moment. He loved being a part of a huge family, loved having so many siblings, loved holidays at home, loved being surrounded by kids and adults at summer bar-b-ques and Christmas parties and the like. Sometimes, yeah it was nice to be away from them and at school where he almost had his own room. But he did miss them sometimes, especially when it got too quiet.

So they sent him food, and things from home that showed that they cared. But mostly food. As his mother put it, "And who knows what sort of things they think are edible at that school of yours? No no no, you get good things from me in the mail. You gotta eat, you're all skin and bones still." Hence the care packages packed with way too much food for him. This time was mostly antipasto things, finger food, and bread. Oh the bread. Vinnie's mother and older cousins made their own bread at home. This time, they put some sort of freshness charm on it so the bread was even still warm when he got it, fresh from the oven. he decided to make himself an al fresco lunch of bread and cheese, olives and mushrooms, some roasted peppers and prosciutto wrapped bread sticks, and eat in the common room. The table now set up with his family's offerings, he sat down to enjoy his lunch.

Characters:Sam and... someone!
Setting: Music room, Saturday afternoon
Rating:Worksafe?
Summary:Sam is working out a new drum solo with his awesome LED drumsticks when...

The New Years Eve party had been a success. Of course he had spent most of the next morning cleaning but it was okay, as long as people had a good time. And things were good with Abernathy right? He was ready to get back to school but not so much for the academics, it was just nice to get out of the house. Sam was still full of all that energy from the Beau win last night. With all that adrenaline he just needed to get out and drum, he hadn't drummed since before vacation so as soon as he woke up Saturday afternoon he bounced off to the music room.

The room was filled with the sound of Sam drumming. The sound would cease occasionally as he scribbled down a line but he went right back to trying out new rhythms.
