[thisonetime_withellis]

WHO: Hogwarts student body!
TONE: Partaaaay
RATING: Who knows where this might go, let's say NC-17 to be safe
WHEN: April 10th
WHERE: Keith's place in Portsmouth
WHAT: Keith's family is away, so of course he's throwing a crazy party. Everyone is invited. If you don't know him, no problem! If you don't like him.. there's free food, booze and a good time, come anyway! Chances are you won't even see him. Maybe.
STATUS: Ongoing!

---

[Of course the first thing he's going to do upon finding out his parents are going away for a few days at the end of the holidays is organise a house party. In one of the rare occurrences when what he plans is actually what happens, he even has food and drink and some awesome music, and has already plied the neighbours with a bottle of wine so they'll not call the police when things inevitably get too loud.

Always thinking.

He'd made sure everyone knew what he was doing, do you really want to miss this? Do you want to deal with his face after the holidays if you don't show up..?]

[Steer clear. Always steer clear. Nick steps into the room, beer in hand and half smiling as he does. He doesn't think he's heard more than one of those stupid stories and he's buzzed from the alcohol. He's doing pretty good!

Then, he sees Ellis. His first reaction is to swear OUT LOUD like a fucking JACKASS because he's drunk. After that he's going to try to reverse out of the room, bumping into a lamp as he does.]

Why is there so much shit in this goddamn house?!

[thisonetime_withkeith]

[Whoa there! The swearing from Nick is enough to jar him out of his dancing and he looks round in alarm until he spots the elder teen, just in time to see him bumping into the lamp. Oh, Nick... So clumsy! He can't help but laugh a little and shake his head.]

Well maybe Keith's parents like shit! What'd the lamp ever to t'ya anyway, Nick? Y'nearly broke it!

[streetsmarts]

[Nick would give anything to know Ellis didn't hear that, but really it's his own fault for being the opposite of subtle. He sighs, loudly, and turns to face Ellis like he wasn't trying to escape him.]

They have crap taste. [Bluh!] It got in my way.

[thisonetime_withkeith]

[Oh but he did hear it. He heard it and now you're in his radar.]

Aw, it ain't that bad. But y'know ya could'a walked around it?

[streetsmarts]

Yeah. I know. Guess I was just overcome with hatred.

[He's just going to cast a bitter look toward the lamp, thanks a lot for making his life hard.]

[thisonetime_withkeith]

... You're actin' weirder than normal, Nick. Is there somethin' wrong?

[streetsmarts]

Weirder than normal? Hey pot, I think the kettle is trying to say something to you, asshole.

[He rolls his eyes.] I'm fine. I'm just...buzzed.

[thisonetime_withkeith]

Hey, I'm totally normal, I dunno what you're talkin' about!

[Right, Ellis. Of course you are.]

Anyway, y'all don't go knockin' over vases when you're buzzed. Are ya sure you ain't drunk or somethin'?

[streetsmarts]

Normal compared to rednecks, maybe. We aren't in the south, cover alls. You aren't remotely normal even by those standards.

I'm not drunk I just fucking stumbled. You'd know all about that, wouldn't you?

[thisonetime_withkeith]

[Ellis lets out a small huff. Gosh, there's no need to bring his people into this.]

Hey, y'all need to stop talkin' about rednecks. Just cuz you ain't one doesn't mean you gotta be ugly about 'em.

And yeah, I know a thing or two about stumblin' but- Hey... I see what ya did there. I ain't drunk, if that's what you're wonderin'.

[streetsmarts]

If rednecks didn't want people to be ugly about them they'd stop inbreeding and making themselves damn ugly in the first place. [He rolls his eyes.]

You'd know everything about it, I'm surprised you can walk in a straight line when you're sober. [He snorts aggressively.] What did I do there?
