A time for merriment and laughter

[refinedmaestro.livejournal.com]

Who: Everyone in Luceti!
What: The annual musical rendition of A Midsummer Night's Dream that everyone's been waiting for with the party!
When: From 8:00 pm to later into the night.
Where: At the school gym/auditorium and the cafeteria.
Summary: The big time for the play has come, time to put it on then party!
Rating: G to PG-13 at best.



When the audience entered the school gym, there will be a large stage set up with tons of chairs for everyone to sit in. After all were seated, the play began and everything was wonderful for the most part, there were some minor slip-ups here and there. Yet overall, the play was a success. Once the party had finished and the encores were done however, Frederic came out on the stage to make a speech.

"Good evening everyone, thank you for coming out tonight on this glorious occasion. To everyone involved and to all of you our wonderful audience, it has been a pleasure seeing and being with all of you. Now if everyone will turn to the school cafeteria, we can all dine together."

The door to the school cafeteria then opened to reveal a beautiful nature setting with decorations galore all over the place. There will also be a very large table with much food on it with drinks for guests and cast/crew to eat, drink, and be merry. Tonight is a night for celebration, everyone will celebrate with happiness in their hearts.

Luca, being even more awkward that the guy above

[subsultive]

[Guess who's hovering awkwardly by the buffet table? Uh huh.

He's never been good at parties (he liked the play though; that was interesting) and he's in the process of trying to figure how to leave without attracting any attention at all.

...which being by the buffet table doesn't help, of course, but food for thought literally.]

[You've been spotted, Luca! Pao-lin recognizes him as she heads back to the buffet table for more mini sandwiches (so good!).]

Oh, Luca! Nice to see you again!

[subsultive]

[Oh no-- oh, phew, it's just Pao-lin. Okay. It isn't so bad if it's someone he knows.]

Pao-lin! [Heeee she's cute when she smiles.] It's, um, nice to see you again too... Are you well? I mean, you were asleep in the fountain before...

[i_am_not_cute]

I'm fine now, thanks! Just...trying to get used to all of this. [She waves a hand vaguely in the direction of the main party.] It's kind of weird, though, to think that I woke up this morning in a fountain and got told that I'd been kidnapped for experimentation...but now I'm here attending a party.

[subsultive]

Isn't it? Even with circumstances as they are, we can have fun... It makes you think it isn't all bad, doesn't it.

[i_am_not_cute]

It's way better than the last time I got kidnapped. [Her face darkens a little at the memory of Rotwang's deathtrap. It's been a year since then and she still has nightmares about it sometimes.]

[subsultive]

You've been kidnapped before? [It's obviously a bad subject to go down, judging by her face, and Luca winces slightly.] ...You don't ahve to tell me about it if you don't want to.

[consultmybooks]

[It's by the buffet table that Giles first notices Luca and his awkwardness.

...well, why not?]

Did you enjoy the performance, then?

[subsultive]

[Luca jumps; he honestly didn't expect to be talked to (or noticed, actually).]

Y-Yes, sir. I thought it was very interesting. Does this happen every year?

[consultmybooks]

Oh, no. Well...not that I've ever been here. [There was the festival, during that one experiment, but that...hardly counts.]

From what I understand, this was just something Frederic came up with and the timing was, um, a happy accident.

[subsultive]

Oh, I see... Well, perhaps we should make it annual. It certainly seems like a good way to, um, meet people... and all.

[consultmybooks]

That's generally what the party is considered to be for. Every two months, for the New Feathers.

[subsultive]

[Ahh, that's nice. Another party like this in two months...] Whoever started it had the interests of the community in mind. Is it hard to set everything up?

_{[guess who else is by the buffet table. free food is the best food]}

What are you doing? Hiding?

<sub>[also, don't think she didn't see you talk to that one girl. you deredere D:<


no. she's not jealous. what gave you that idea]</sub>

[subsultive]

Eek!! [guess what hasn't changed]

N-No... [Yes.] Just, um... food?

[k but

y u jelly iria]

[ruinedhiswish.livejournal.com]

Why are you even bothering to lie when you're so bad at it?

<sub>[coz ur pickin' up chicks behind my back, duh.

not like i care about you anyway]</sub>

[subsultive]

... [Siiigh. Iria's got a point.] I didn't want to look like a wimp...

[we're just friends!! and we are just talking........

okay.]

[ruinedhiswish.livejournal.com]

Well, it's a little too late for that.

<sub>[because you look like one either way.]

[yeah, right

and stop agreeing to everything i say]</sub>

[subsultive]

[SOBBING FOREVER it's trueeee]

Yeah... [ALTHOUGH HE'S BEEN WONDERING] The play was nice, but you only came for the food, didn't you.

[no but we are!!

okay.....]

[lostinmyway]

[So many shy people, so little time. Grune has just spotted another person whose day needs brightening, and so--incoming tall gorgeous woman, Luca!

She gives him a warm, friendly smile, and says:] Hello, there! This is a nice party, isn't it?

[subsultive]

[All these people!! Luca jumps, despite the warm and friendly smile. Pretty ladies don't usually talk to him. Tonight's been a good night.]

Y-Yeah... I guess.

[lostinmyway]

[Even Grune can't miss that lackluster answer and she gives him a mildly concerned look.]

Oh, my. Is something the matter?

[subsultive]

I'm not really good with parties... That's all.

[lostinmyway]

Don't worry. [Grune gives him a reassuring smile.] Everyone here is very friendly.

[Though maybe not quite as friendly as her.]

[subsultive]

[The smile boosts his confidence, just a little, and he nods.]

All right. [...being in Luceti again sure has made him rude, hasn't it--] U-Um... I'm Luca. What's your name?
