week 05, wednesday, 8PM-???

[hopefragment]

[What's up it's sleepover time. Feel free to assume that if you're a teenager (or Poland, or Urashima), that Hinata extended an invitation to hang out with him and Roxy and whoever else wants to come for a sleepover. No obvious weapons will be allowed, and if anyone shows up with one that he can see, he'll politely ask that they leave their weapon in their room and come back.

No Glitter Allowed other than what's invariably trapped in their clothes (and Hinata's hair).

He's been gathering things all afternoon to try to make it a nice party with absolutely no murder involved. He stole a good amount of snacks, drinks, and candy from the general store and kitchen, as well as some paper and pencils from the police station. He'd even made a trip into the schoolhouse for construction paper, though he hadn't spent long in there. Unfortunately there's not much available in the way of games, so he's hoping they can do things that are mostly verbal or don't require props. Charades...?

One thing of note is that it's a good idea to take your shoes off when you come in! Through the afternoon, he's been dragging mattresses and bedspread from both Alisha's and Poland's room to spread all as many as will fit end to end, creating a massive comfy place to sit and invariably crash. His own bedframes and box springs have been kind of awkwardly shoved against the wall beneath the window, the rest of the furniture moved against the walls to allow space.]

Comments

not actually in the sleepover just knocking on the door once it's in full swing

[herbgrace]

[Poland is supposed to be at the sleepover, but maybe Lithuania got a little worried. She doesn't want to interrupt, but in a place like this, maybe she just wants to check in on her. So, Lithuania is going to knock on the door.]

Excuse me--sorry to interrupt, I just wanted to know--Poland got here alright, yes?

[sobowtor]

[Poland bounces over across the mattress floor once she sees it's Liet.

Yes, hi she made it the five feet across the hall without dying.]

Did you miss me?

[Are you lonely Liet? Do you want Poland to leave and hold you in her bosom.]

1/3

[herbgrace]

Ah, there you are. [Lithuania trusted Poland to make it across a hallway unscathed.]

[fourleafcleaver]

[Clover shows up in the pinkest, frilliest PJs possible with Lucy, an approximate fuckton of baked goods, and significantly more glitter than has been permitted, all of the latter of which gets confiscated at the door, to her immense dismay. She baked you cookies and you do this to her.

But look!! There are pies and cookies!!! The girls went hard and now there are more cookies and brownies and pies than anyone would ever know what to do with, and there's even a cake. She makes the biggest show possible of helping get them set up with the snacks.] You're welcome.

[Since she can't be a nuisance with glitter, she's just going to be a nuisance in general so for your safety, please stay out of the way of her bouncing, jumping, and rolling around on the infinite mattress floor, rambunctious little shit that she is.]

[hopefragment]

Woah!

[Holy shit you guys, that is a lot of snacks?? Can they even eat them all?? (Yes)]

Hang on, I can help carry something, this is... you guys made all this?

[The stuff he stole from the general store is so sad-looking in comparison.]

[okuri]

[Yoite's only here because Clover bribed him with cookies and sweets, and at least she hasn't reneged on that offer. But he's not even social enough to go over to during the party to thank her, though he is eating a lot of cookies and pie at least.

Maybe if he stands here and blends in with the wall, she won't notice him....]

[americanbeauty]

[If you think Lucy is in anything but some vintage pink nightgown you are surely mistaken. She's still a bit embarrassed about showing up in it since there are boys here but Clover insisted. She can't fight the sleepover protocol.

She's also helping with moving the literal ton of food into the room. It's harder to balance pies than containers of cookies, thankfully there are less of them.]

And here I thought you enjoyed baking all this.

[Teasingly calling out that sass, friend.]

[sobowtor]

[Clover you are so talented in so many ways.]

You made a cake?

[No one is allowed to ever murder Clover.]

[dereban]

[ If you're thinking that Inaba Himeko wouldn't come to a party of teens, you've got that-- wait, that line belongs to Hinata. Either way, she's a little bit late to the party, but that's only because she was having trouble figuring out what to wear.

Eventually, she picks this and to the surprise of probably literally everyone it's. It's pink. Inaba Himeko is wearing an all pink (well, except for the thigh highs, those are definitely black for the Trope) for once. And she also is wearing a side braid, too, holding her laptop to her chest as she awkwardly walks in.

Definitely not going to hide in the corner... Nah..... ]

[princessantly]

Inaba! You've arrived!

[ Someone looks happy to see her, at least. ]

[muties]

[ Bounces across the mattresses over to Inaba's corner. Pauses. Smiles.

Bashes Inaba over the head with a pillow.

BOUNCES AWAY. ]

[fourleafcleaver]

[AT TOP VOLUME:]

Inaba! You look so cute in pink! [GOOD LUCK HIDING]

truth or dare

[hopefragment]

[At some point after the pillow fight has calmed down, Hinata's going to propose another suggestion for a game. He's got his oj and a piece of cake, but at least he has the courtesy not to talk with his mouth full.]

So, uh... how about truth or dare? No dares that're going to be dangerous, obviously, and probably nothing that'll bother anyone out of this room...

[They don't need another glitter retaliation or worse. This whole thing is supposed to bring them closer together, not piss anyone off!]

What'd you think?

[dereban]

[ Okay she needs to recover from her most embarrassing moment of all time and clearly a game is the Best distraction. Nobody ever mention that she said 'nyaa' ever again otherwise she's going to kill someone. Maybe. Who knows. ]

Okay but since you suggested it, you have to go first. So. Truth or dare?

[princessantly]

[ Alisha's definitely a little flushed from DRAMATIC PILLOW FIGHTING, and since her ponytail's seen better days, she's letting her hair down and working on finger-combing green glitter out of it. It... admittedly feels strange, to be having fun when so many people have died, and a lot of it still pains her, but... at times like this, maybe it's good to have something to smile about.

So anyone can catch her in this moment of pensive silence and glitter grooming, or--

Sooner, she's going to spot a certain empty bottle on the floor, and pipe up. ]

Did someone lose a bottle?

[hopefragment]

Huh?

[Granted, at the question about the bottle, Hinata's first concern is potential murder weapon. That might just be an unfortunate side-effect of the last party he attended. But a glance toward her, then his lips part in an o of comprehension.]

Oh, uh... no, it's not lost. We were thinking maybe... spin the bottle? It'd be fun.

[Did they have that game in your ye olde time, Alisha.]

Spin the Bottle!

[hopefragment]

[Now that the rules have been explained, presumably those who want to play are gathered in a circle around said bottle. Hinata can't actually believe he's playing this kind of game, in this kind of place, but... well, like he'd been saying all week. If it helps them all get to know each other and bond more closely, it can't possibly be bad.

((Feel free to just assume the bottle has landed on your character and a participating partner of your choice. Or just pick two characters and make them go for it. Or hit me up on plurk and I'll RNG something.))]

Never Have I Ever

[sobowtor]

[Alright cool mamo Poland has a game for all you -- that she is only suggesting because she brought Vodka with her.

Unless of course you don't like vodka in which case she also has some very delicious non alcoholic juice-- that you can also add vodka to. Your preference.

Mamo's drinking it straight though.]

Let's play never have I ever.

We all say statements we've never done and then if you've done them, you gotta drink.

Re: Never Have I Ever

[dereban]

[ What's a good one... ]

Never have I been off the planet Earth before arriving here. [ Has to specify. ]

Seven Minutes in Heaven!

[hopefragment]

[While it's probably one of the last activities of the night, feel free to drop other top-levels for other shenanigans beyond this one! For added fun, please feel free to link to a locked post (to both your partner and the mod, just as you would for a private convo) mid-thread, or for the beginning of the thread, which we'll all get to popcorn come endgame.

Don't forget that the snacks are also in the closet. Mind those, don't shove anyone into the snack table! Clover and Lucy's hard work!]

[symbologic]

[He's...probably fairly tipsy thanks to certain RUDE ASS MOTHERFUCKERS taking advantage of the fact that aliens are incredibly easy to force to drink in games of Never Have I Ever. But hey, maybe that will actually be a good thing? Loosening up a little is probably a good thing, in Faize's case.]

[Seven Minutes in Heaven, more like Seven Minutes in Outer Space, though. Gotta be thematic.]

[muties]

[ Ok, closet version of spin the bottle. Worse comes to worse, they eat the snacks. She's really not drunk enough for this game (since she's... 100% sober... AND LIKELY THE ONLY ONE... doing shots of orange juice holla) but does she care? No. No she does not.

Who wants to spend seven minutes eating snacks/talking/plotting murder/maybe smooching with Roxy? Or rather, who doesn't want to but ends up with her anyway? ]

[dereban]

[ You know how Inaba is kind of wary of things? While she might have played it a bit fast and loose with the games and trolled a bit more than she probably should, she's. Completely and Utterly sober, considering that she's only drank water this whole time.

But she's definitely a lot looser than she usually is and the fact is that she's actually?? Opened up??? A lot more than she had to tonight. Which is a good thing, to say the least.

Although she may or may not smooch someone in the closet. Maybe. It depends who it is. They have a good seven minutes to do whatever the hell they want, after all. ]

[vicedirector]

[ Sleepover parties sure are fun, aren't they? Lively ones are bound to draw the attention of the other residents in the building, that's for sure.

So maybe you shouldn't be too surprised when one of the rounder pieces of candy begins to roll to the centre of the room. ]

[hopefragment]

Huh?

[Maybe it is surprising to Hinata, considering he's under the impression the rooms are soundproof. He notices the piece of candy, but doesn't think too much of it; after all, he'd dragged a bunch of mattresses together, so the whole floor is probably moving some.

Weird though. Does watching it cause any change to its behavior?]
