Slumber Party~ (Backdated)

[funnygirl]

Who: Belle, Beast, and whoever wants to come!
What: Slumber Party
When: Friday 13th, in the evening.
Where: House 17
Summary: Belle is throwing a slumber party open to the whole village! it's a totally gender equal thing
Rating: PG? PG-13? R because of Isaac?


Belle has spent most of the day preparing the house for the nightly festivities. She went out and got as much food and snacks and she and Beast could carry (which is a lot). She's also swept through every extra room in the house, laying out extra pillows and blankets where guests are sure to find them. Each room has enough sleeping supplies for about two people, so hopefully people will be bringing their own things as she asked.

As far as party plans go, it's a free-for-all. If anyone has any game or activity suggestions then they should come forward with them. After all, this is Belle's first slumber party and she doesn't know all of the traditions just yet. Except for one: pillow fights.

Mingling

[funnygirl]

[General mingling thread. Have your character arrive, greet other guests as they come, find friends among the crowd, etc.]

[folklorist]

Helios is definitely going to mingle and talk to whoever has showed up. He's feeling so much better after last week's events that this is probably something he needed to get himself back on track. It's a fun, innocent, and happy little occasion so he doesn't really mind joining in on things. Feel free to approach or talk to him if you wish.

[funnygirl]

[As the party begins to kick off Belle will be going around with a tray of treats and offering refreshments. When she gets to Helios she smiles and offers up the tray.]

Oh, Helios. I'm so glad you came.

[of_sablier]

[It's a good thing he's in a better mood, because Jack is all smiles and ready for conversation and would likely have talked Helios' ear off otherwise. As it is, he just grins, making his way over with a plate of cookies and holding it out as an offering.]

Would you care for a cookie? They're from the bakery; Rapunzel makes the most amazing things there.

[onejump]

[Well, Aladdin was excited to help out with the party, but when it comes to actual socializing, it turns out he's not so hot. He's mostly hanging out in the corner, being reclusive, smiling awkwardly and greeting people when pressed but otherwise keeping to himself.

It seems our street-rat is a lot less cocky about socializing than he is about stealing. Who knew?]

[tailasoldastime]

[It looks like Aladdin may have met his match in non-sociable men. Now that the party has started to settle, Beast finds himself with little to do except step back and watch the guests comingle.

Oh wait, he hasn't greeted Aladdin yet. He can do that! ... But it's easier said than done, and he quickly remembers how they met when he first came to Luceti. Awkward...]

Ih, uh... h-hello. W... welcome.

[Nervous grin.]

[stilldontgotit]

[Riku does a double take when he sees Aladdin. There's a face he hadn't expected to see. Granted, he never had direct encounters with the guy, but seeing how he kidnapped Jasmine...

Hoo boy.

Thankfully, after meeting Beast and Belle, he knows there's a possibility this Aladdin has no clue who he is. Rather than confuse the guy by calling out his name, Riku opts for a more neutral route and waltzes on over with a smile.]

Not much of a party animal?

[folklorist]

[ Helios sees you wallflowering it up Aladdin and he knows just the thing to offer to get you to talk. Helios will offer the other man a plate of some food with a smile. Helios has his own but there's a little bit of everything on the two plates. ]

Care for something to eat?

[funnygirl]

[Belle has left the front door wide open and stands in front of it to welcome people as they come in. She'll direct people to drop their food off in the kitchen, and their sleeping equipment in one of the bedrooms. When the crowd begins to settle she'll go around offering people refreshments. It's important to her to be a good host.]

[notyourutopian]

[Eleanor isn't even entirely sure why she had decided to come, but she had, so there she is, walking quietly up to the open door in a swishy, long black skirt and a pretty dark purple vest, her hands clenched nervously behind her back. But she manages a smile at Belle when she sees her by the door.]

Ah...Hello.

[tailasoldastime]

[While the party wasn't his idea, Beast is completely dedicating himself to overseeing the arrangments, making sure everyone's stuff has settled accordingly, and overall ensuring that everything is running smoothly. This is his first time truly hosting an event, after all, and if only for Belle's sake he wants to prove he can do the job well!

Guests can typically find Beast wandering around the parlour area, prepared to lead unattended individuals to the spare bedrooms, organising the food table (and possibly stealing a snack or five), or just greeting individuals. He is on his best behaviour tonight! For now.]

[ofwesternwinds]

[Whether he's been roped into it or ended up coming of his own accord, Rudy will be present. At least for the early half of the party anyway, helping set up the food and mingling. Or trying to. As friendly an exterior he tries to put on, actively socializing still wasn't exactly his strong point, especially during parties.

When he's sure no one else is looking he'll quietly slip out of the party later on, not exactly wanting others to see what's going on underneath his jacket. The curse may not be a problem now, but it still didn't fix the other half of his issues.]

Kitchen

[funnygirl]

[The kitchen is where you will find all the food and snacks. Which for some of you will be the entire reason you came anyways, right? Plates are set out around the counters and the table, displaying all the treats Belle has to offer. Guests are welcome to include their own.

So eat, enjoy,start a food fight. Whatever.]

tw: blood, disembodied animal head

[relictusdeus]

[An open invitation means there is the potential for unexpected guests, and for all his uncertainty as to what a slumber party involves, Isaac ensures that he is one of them if only briefly. Having once found himself under Belle's roof for a time makes a simple task of returning via teleportation – and he has not shown himself in empty-handed. His first offering comes in the form of a trophy from his most recent hunt, a glassy-eyed deer head with reddened, frayed fur ringing the stump of its neck. Dumping it all too gleefully onto the nearest kitchen counter (space permitting,) he then sets down a small basket of red apples among the other goods.

They look appealing, at least. Not unlike the batch that had doomed Rosaly.]

'twould have been a shame to let the meat go to waste. [He’ll remark amusedly to whomever may boggle at the head.] ‘twill make for a fine roast... and serve as a charming decorative piece, all the while.

[funnygirl]

[Belle walks into the kitchen just in time to witness Isaac dropping the deer head on the counter. She opens her mouth to say something but then covers it with her mouth. This is clearly not the type of food she'd been referring to. But then she notices the apples and feels a little better. That means he's making a real attempt right? Hopefully...]

Um...yes. I suppose it will. I'm so glad you came, Isaac. I didn't believe you would.

[folklorist]

It's not a slumber party without popcorn or chocolate covered pretzels both of which Helios is bringing and setting down on the counter tops. He needs his sweets okay? Once he's settled he'll grab a few things to munch on and bustle about the kitchen looking at all the food that's been brought.

[onejump]

[Aladdin said he'd bring snacks, and bring snacks he did.

... He knew better than to try gourmet cooking, by any means, but any sort of snack food he could collect, he did, and he even tried his hand at a few simple arrangements- which turned out a bit sad-looking and shoddy, but hey, points for effort?]

"Will, uh, this be enough?"

[ilyana]

[Ilyana probably should feel a little more guilty about eating as much as she is, but a girl's gotta eat. Still, despite her ravenous apatite she is managing to keep some of the food for the other guests. She's just going to stealthily hang out in the corner of the room, taking a few small things at a time till half the food is gone.]

[sketchingideals]

[After he arrives, Jeb can be found placing a rather large plate of cookies on one of the counters. It looks like he went all out when he decided to make cookies.]

[ribbonbon]

[Pilouette enters the kitchen with a few small platters covered with a...kind of ridiculous amount of cookies. When she said she would make extra snacks, she meant it. However, she may have underestimated just how many she's made and is currently looking for a place to put them among all the other food.]

Games/Activities

[funnygirl]

[If you want to start a thread for a certain game or activity, add it here.]

Pillow Fight

[funnygirl]

[What it says on the tin.]

Ghost stories

[hero_of_smiles]

[Once it's finally late enough it's time for the best part about a sleep over. The ghost stories. A fake fire is set up in the center of the circle, to give a better, ominous atmosphere.

Cross holds out a flash light, waving it around a bit.]

So, rules are that whoever's got the flashlight is the one telling the ghost story. Anybody want to take he first turn?

Blanket Fort Building

[skysung]

She has never been to a party of this sort, but she when she looks around the room, a possible activity occurs to her. Pillows and blankets are everywhere. Why not put them to good use until it's time for sleep? It is the sort of thing her human siblings, Rikash and Sarralyn, would love.

Kitten takes out her slate and chalk, writes the words "BLANKET FORT" in big letters, taking up the entire surface, and props it up for anyone to see.

She sets about the beginning of building. Even with the spells to improve her manual dexterity, the dragon is very short. She clambers onto whatever furniture she can to aid in her mission, but two and a half feet tall is still not an ideal height for securing tents made of blankets.

Kitten would welcome a hand.

Sleeping Arrangments

[funnygirl]

[It's late and everyone is ready to find a flat surface to pass out on. Sleep where you fall. Pick a room at random. Consult with your friends about where you want to sleep. Accidentally crawl into an occupied bed. Go wild.]
