Party Rock in da houuuuuuse toniiiight

[sixbuckdropout]

WHO: Dean Winchester, Marshall Lee, anyone fourth year or older
TONE: Fun! It's a party.
RATING: PG-13 at most for language and shenanigans
WHEN: 8 September
WHERE: One of the unused classrooms
WHAT: Consider it a "we survived the first week of school" party
STATUS: On-going.

Dean and Marshall discussed throwing during the first weekend back at school. And guess what? They are. It was Dean's task to handle invites, which he did--to students in the fourth year and up, save for the Prefects and the Head Boy/Girl. The invites also instructed students to come to the party alone; groups of loud students would be suspicious! There are spells cast to make the classroom sound proof.

There's also an entrance fee of ten sickles. Seem a bit extreme? You're paying for quality. There's great music and a variety of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks.



(OOC Note: Many of the Ravenclaws invites (with the exception of Tony's) insinuated that this was in fact a study session. Not a party. Surprise!)

No problem.

Oh, thanks. I was trying to go for a mix of things and hopefully introduce people to some new stuff.
I'm not a huge fan of a lot of Wizard music though. Some of it is good but a lot of it is really cheesy or sounds like it's about a hundred years out of date...and I would know.

[nomorals]

[That makes her snerk behind her cup.]

Yeah, tell me about it. I can't stand a lot of wizard music because it sounds like some kind of cat warbling out of tune.

[marshall_lee]

Celestine Warbeck...blech. I get girls requesting her stuff all the time. I swear I'll puke if I ever have to play "Cauldron of Your Hot Love" or whatever the hell that stupid song is called again.

...I'm not sure if I still can involuntarily puke or not but that song would probably make it happen.

[nomorals]

Jeez, that's almost as bad as my band getting requests for One Direction. We're a punk rock band for crying out loud. What part of One Direction is punk rock?

[She pauses for dramatic reasons.]

None. Exactly.

[marshall_lee]

That one song of theirs, "Thats What Makes You Beautiful" is kinda sorta okay. It reminds me a lot of the bubblegum poppy stuff from the late 60's and early 70's. It was pukatronic back then but now it's got a kind of innocence to it that you don't see anymore.
I would never sing it myself but I can see why teenage girls lose their minds over it.

But requesting it of a punk rock band just shows you don't know shit about music.

[nomorals]

Tell me about it. I think half the time people just show up to our gigs because they know a friend of a friend or something.

[She shrugs a little.]

[marshall_lee]

There's always that person at every show it seems.

And the drunk person who claims that every song is about them.

[nomorals]

Looks like some people plan on getting sloshed and-slash-or high tonight so you're bound to get a few of them.

[Marceline looks around the room, glancing here and there where she can see people and their housemates. How Winchester managed to smuggle alcohol in was anyone's guess. Then she glanced back at him, lowering her voice, a small bit of venom around one word.]

So do you usually use that for shows?

[marshall_lee]

Yeeeah. I'll help them get back to their dorms though. I won't leave em high and dry..especially since I really don't want anyone to get caught.
[Well..Winchester didn't smuggle all of it in, Marshall also had some via a secret compartment in his guitar case. He couldn't drink it so he might as well share. He smirked a little at the emphisis.]
Oh, you noticed that huh? Weeell..it depends on the crowd really. Everyone seemed kind of wound up and nervous about getting caught so I just...[He shrugs] helped them to relax is all.

[nomorals]

It's a bit hard not to notice.

[She pursed her lips together around the rim of her glass, a small frown on her face. While she understood Marshall's intentions, it was kind of hard to forget the near month she'd spent under Ash's compulsion. Watching it in action from the other side of the spectrum, it was easy to see how Ash had caught her.]

Better be careful. I know a lot of people around here aren't familiar with us but they'd still notice something's different even if they're intoxicated.

[marshall_lee]

Other vamps notice..humans not so much.

[He notices she seems tense and the full reality of why just kind of hits him. Shit. Now he feels really bad. He sighs and hangs his head a little.]

I'm sorry..I forgot...[He trails off a bit.] I never do it to make people do stuff or act against their will or anything. Messing with peoples heads isn't cool.

[nomorals]

[Ugh. Why did they always come to this? Marceline tipped her head back and downed her drink, tossing the cup into a nearby bin, shaking her head.]

Don't. It's okay. I believe you. It's just...me being stupid. I guess I'm still a little bitter.

[marshall_lee]

[Ugh. Awkwardness.]

Well, you have every right to be. I would be too..hell, I still kinda am and I was a dumb ass who willfully went through with it.

[nomorals]

[She gives a sigh.]

Let's not talk about this here and forget it. If any of my friends overhear, your cover would be blown. Let's just have some lumping fun already.

[marshall_lee]

[He smiles and nods. hooray, crisis averted]

That's totally fine with me.
[He holds out a hand]

Let's dance.

[nomorals]

[She tilts her head at the offered hand before reaching to take it, lips tugging upwards into a smirk.]

If you think you can keep up with me.

[marshall_lee]

[He gives her a wicked grin before spinning her smartly out onto the dance floor.]

I think I can do that.

[nomorals]

[She returns the grin before spinning back to him, slipping her other arm around his waist. Being pureblood, Marceline was pretty much raised knowing how to ballroom dance. She leaned in, tilting her head.]

Then I guess you don't mind if I take the lead, huh?

[marshall_lee]

[Marshall wasn't a pureblood but when he was young ballroom dancing was pretty much one of the only forms of dancing. He bats his eyelashes and simpers.]

I suppose I can be the girl. [He puts on a falsetto Southern bell voice] Wah ah DO declare Mister Mahceline you DO dance dahviiiinely.

[nomorals]

[She laughs, but she does respond in kind, deepening her voice as much as she can, dipping him.]

Why Miss Marshall, you say the simply flattering things when I should be complimenting you on your dress. It brings out the colour of your eyes, and may I say I could get lost in them.

[marshall_lee]

[He squeals appropriately at the dip.]
Oh you flatterer you!
[He drops the voice and glances around grinning.]
People are going to think we're nuts, you know that right?

[nomorals]

[She lets out a small puff of air before grinning and straightening them.]

Who the heck cares? This is a party, isn't it?

[marshall_lee]

True that.
[He continues to twirl around.]
Hey if anything we can claim to be drunk.

[nomorals]

I'm sure someone's spiked the punch by now. It's not like it'll make any difference.

[Though she is a little curious about how much vampires can drink, if anything, but she's not going to risk it. Instead, she reaches over him to help him twirl around.]

[marshall_lee]

Also true. I can drink a few glasses before I start feeling sick but it's usually not worth even bothering with.
[He pulls a flask out of his back pocket.]
Easier to pretend and put something in here that can actually help you.
