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 and Rowan
Setting: Danverse, Mass. Thursday
Rating: SFW
Summary: Meka goes to visit Rowan!

It had been a pretty nice vacation for Meka. She had gone home to Hawaii for the first few days to relax in the sun and get some time to herself. It didn't take much convincing though when her brother insisted she come stay in New York for a few days. She needed some girl time though and by Thursday she was making plans. She sent off a quick text to Rowan to see if she wanted to hang out and maybe have an early birthday celebration and got herself ready.

"I'll text you when I'm coming back," she said to Keoni before stepping into his fire place.

"Be safe!" he called. "Don't do anything too stupid and reckless," he teased.

"Yeah right," Meka rolled her eyes with a big grin. With a handful of floo powder she made her journey easily and stepped out into the familiar room. "Hello!" she called.

Sadie Hawkins Dance!
Characters: Everyone!
Setting: Friday, April 15, 2011
Content: Yeah, yeah, we know. NSFW
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.


((OOC: This will count for the month of April's activity. All threads made herein, no matter when actually posted, will count for April! Be sure and tag yourselves when your characters enter the scene. Any questions? Contact a mod!))

Characters: Meka and OPEN
Setting: The woods, Sunday afternoon
Content: SFW Heavy cursing.
Summary: Meka is out for a smoke

Meka had finished her homework ages ago and there was absolutely nothing going on. The students had been given fair warning of the woods all year but she just couldn't be bothered to listen. She had every intension to smoke herself silly and play scribblenauts.

She was stuck on a particularly difficult problem and her infamous go to velociraptor was getting her nowhere. "Damn velociraptor," she mumbled to herself closing the lid of her DS and putting it in the breast pocket of her flannel. She dug out another cigarette and lit it, leaning back against the tree.

Characters: Everyone!
Setting: The Van Rensselaer home, NOLA. Tues March 8th
Content: NSFW. Just calling that now.
Summary: It's Mardi Gras in NOLA. Naturally someone has to have a party.

Never mind that it was a school night, Quinn wanted a party. She'd been intending to throw one on Mardi Gras and had been working on her uncle for some time to let her have the house. Finally she had won out. Not only did she get permission, but Noah and his wife vacated for the next couple days to allow her the opportunity for the party as well as the clean up. There was plenty of room for people to crash that night before they had to manage to get to class the following day.

The main portion of the house was decorated with all sorts of Mardi Gras decorations. Streamers, masks, draped boas, and other brightly coloured items to mark the festival. Quinn had made sure there was plenty of starting alcohol available, all obtained through a reliable source and none from her own stash. She was sure more people would bring their own to fill it out. Even food was available, though the size of the alcohol table was far larger.

A house elf was aiding the hostess in passing out beads to the male attendees while the hostess herself filled her arm with a bunch to pass out as she made her rounds.

It's Mardi Gras, and it's time to party.

[OOC NOTE: Remember to tag yourselves!]

Twin's Tea Party
Characters Everyone invited to the twin's tea party!
Setting Saturday, the twin's dorm
Content Probably NSFW
Summary It's Ella and Jenny's birthday!

Ella and Jenny had cleared a big space in their doorm room, pushing all their furniture to the sides and creating a sizeable area to hopefully hold all their guests. There were little tables holding cupcakes and cookies, tiny triangle shaped sandwiches and an assortment of charming teapots and cups. They had all sorts of tea and they were charmed to stay warm.

A faint cloud of steam hung in the air and gave everything a magical feeling, coupled with bunches of balloons floating across the ceiling. Sitting next to each other in the centre of a table were two very different birthday cakes for each of the twins. Later on they had big squishy pillows and beanbags for the slumber party-goers to lounge on whilst eating popcorn and watching movies. Having everything prepared, the twins waited to welcome their guests.

Characters: Sera and Meka
Setting: Their room, Saturday before the twin's tea party
Content: SFW
Summary: The girls help each other pick out outfits for the tea party and have a long overdue conversation.

Meka had finally been feeling better about things. Milo was on the mend, she was dancing again, and after her conversation with Stas she was starting to feel better about things. She was already making progress with her new years resolution and she was dying to tell Sera all about her misadventures even if she was ashamed of some of her more unsavory tale. She was pretty certain that she had not kept something this big from Sera ever!

She held up another dress and showed it off to Sera. "What do you think about this one?" she asked looking at it thoughtfully. She was feeling pretty brave these days, like maybe she could wear a dress that showed off the scar on the back of her leg, maybe she could talk about it openly, maybe, just maybe she wouldn't hide behind anything anymore.

Valentines Day Dance 2011
Characters: Everyone!
Setting: Friday, February 11, 2011
Content: Do we really need to ask? NSFW
Summary: It's the Valentine's Day dance! Get grooving!

CCI's main hall had been decked out to the nines for the annual Valentine's Day dance. Red, pink, and white streamers and hearts hung from the ceiling. The usual snack table had been set up with a deep red table cloth and lined with trays of snacks and bowls of punch. The lighting was a bit hazy, giving a romantic hue to the room... but not too romantic! Professors were on the alert for inappropriate behavior.

Charmed papier-mache hearts floated through the dance, occasionally exploding and sending jets of glitter to the dance floor. The music was loud and energetic and the hall way already flooding with students dressed in their best and dancing.


OOC: Plese tag yourselves in! Remember there are chaperons!

Characters: Anastas and Meka
Setting: Her room.
Content: SFWish. Language to be sure.
Summary: Stas confides to the only person he is ever completely honest with. Meka confides back.


Stas had been puzzling over himself since that peculiar conversation with Emilie. If he was being honest all of his conversations with Emilie were peculiar, but this one had him thinking.

Self reflection wasn't something Stas was very good or practiced at. )
