Pulling up to the parties

[mo_cara]

WHO: Gamzee Makara, Tavros Nitram, and anyone who wants to PAR-TAY
TONE: Hilarious, fun
RATING: PG-13 to R for possible shenanigans
WHEN: May 5th
WHERE: Empty classroom
WHAT: Gamzee is throwing a birthday bash for his bro! Everyone is invited!
STATUS: Ongoing


There was food. There was music. There were sparkly lights. There was booze. There was even a ridiculously oversized cake, though that had yet to be wheeled in. Gamzee had done everything he could to make sure the birthday party he was throwing for Tavros was well attended, and everyone knew the best way to get a hopping party was to let the Hufflepuffs know they were all invited. Which he had. And then, of course, he had to get the word out to absolutely everyone else he didn't think would be a bastard to his boy.

And then it was just a matter of getting permission to use one of the empty classrooms (he made sure to go through Iroh), setting everything up, waiting for people to come, throwing a blanket silence charm in the hall to disguise everything, and then dispatching Karkat to go get Tavros. When the Hufflepuff showed up, there would be a roomful of people waiting to yell surprise at him, a band with some sweet tunes, and a particularly tastyfine present Gamzee intended to give his bro later.

Because some shit was worth the wait.

Equius made sure to show up early because honestly, he did not want to be there. There was the last place he ever wanted to be. Not because it was Tavros's birthday, exactly, that he was pretty ambivalent about, but because Gamzee fully intended to humiliate him in front of everyone everywhere.

He was sweating already.

Which was also why he was there so early. He wanted to be dressed and out of sight before anyone else got a chance to see him. At least, out of sight until "the moment."

Closed to Tavros

It had taken him a little while to whisk Tavros away from the party for this little venture. Seeing Equius in a dress had been worth it though and so, as the party started winding down, there had been no need to worry about people missing the birthday boy terribly.

He pushed the other boy down the corridor, being careful considering it was after hours and they could get caught and punished for being out of their dorms. Karkat didn't even let himself breathe until they were properly outside and he finally stopped. He rubbed the back of his neck before reaching into the book bag he'd been carrying around since the party started, pulling a large-looking present from it and handing it to Tavros.

"Happy birthday."

If I may????

In a corner to herself, Noodle sits, tuning her guitar carefully, as she waits for the rest of her bandmates to show their faces. Normally she wouldn't be anywhere near a shindig like this, but a gig was a gig. They needed to get their names out there, and this would be one way of doing it. And it was a practice.

Hopefully the other two wouldn't forget to show.

Honestly, she had no idea there was a party going on (or maybe she had an idea, but didn't care enough to remember) nor did she have any intention of attending said party. She didn't know these students well enough to wish any of them well, so why bother?

So when she accidentally walked into the wrong classroom (having forgotten a book in one earlier in the day) she was very surprised to see this going on. Maybe she could come back later...

Peter is just a tiny bit late, but the reason is probably that herding fairies is worse than herding cats. Which is to say, impossible.

But through some bribing and lots of flattery, he's got them all ready to put in a show stopping appearance and give the room a bit of flair. And to act as an honor guard for the birthday boy.

He can't guarantee they'll stay very long, or that people won't get things nicked or ears pulled, but fairies are fairies. Everyone should know about them and how best to deal with them, right? Right?

Karkat was pretty sure he was drunk. Tipsy, but not full on drunk. Someone had spiked the punch, then again he shouldn't have been surprised. This was a party Gamzee threw after all. His expression was less annoyed than usual, cheeks tinged vaguely pink. He was actually laughing too, something that probably happened once in a blue moon.

He just hoped he wasn't drunk enough to do something stupid. Like kiss his boyfriend in a crowded room.
