Welcome Dance - the Gym

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

The streamers and banners are up. So are a zillion multi-colored helium balloons.

The floor is cleared, and the bandstand is up at the north side of the room, ready for Dusted Bunnies to take their places.

The refreshment table, with the (as yet) unspiked punch is in place. There are chips and stuff as well, Chex mix, a few nachos and some guacamole.


Party on, dudes! And welcome to Fandom High.

Xander's wearing a uniform too. Kinda. Insofar as old jeans and a black GO GREMLINS t-shirt with a purple, blue, and pink paisley button-down open over it are the Xander Harris uniform of Tasteless Brigade.

"Hey, Bridge," he says with a wave, grabbing a cup of punch.

"Dude!" Bridge says, bouncing in Xander's direction. "Interesting colour combination."

Re: Punch (pre-spiking)

[soldtoarmenians]

"Bright clashing colors ward off gremlins," Xander said with a wink. "Didn't you know?"

Re: Punch (pre-spiking)

"Is that what they're saying now?" Bridge giggles. "Well, I'll keep that under advisement, I guess!"

Xander reaches into his pocket and pulls out a Twinkie wrapper, and crinkles it loudly, then looks thoughtfully at it. "Hell, maybe it's true - I haven't been bitten yet, and god knows I always have at least one of these in my pocket."

"I haven't been bit yet either. Though I did play Lightball with three of them, once," Bridge shrugs.

"They sang me to sleep with carols in the common room on Christmas eve," Xander says. "That was...freakyish."

Re: Punch (pre-spiking)

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Carols? That... does sound weird," Bridge shakes his head.

"Well, it's possible I wasn't quite awake. But I'm pretty sure Aeryn and Kara Thrace were there." He paused with his cup of punch halfway to his mouth. "Though I guess I could've been dreaming about Aeryn and Kara. If I were, though, you'd think I'd have them doing something more interesting together than listening to gremlins sing."

Molly didn't dress up for the dance because no one told her she should, and she didn't have anything dressier than the clothes she wore everyday any way.

Bridge was the first person she noticed as she approached the punchbowl. He was talking to someone she recognized from Creature Lang. class, but she hadn't met him yet. She went over to say hi.

"Hey, Bridge. Nice outfit."

Re: Punch (pre-spiking)

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Hat-Girl-Molly! Thanks!" Bridge chirped. "I know it's not like, a really formal dance or anything, but I figured it's still a worthy occassion!" He grins at Molly, "have you met Xander?"

Re: Punch (pre-spiking)

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

Molly shook her head. "Nope." She turned to Xander. "I've seen you in class talking to Blair though."

Re: Punch (pre-spiking)

[soldtoarmenians]

"Professor Dream's class!" Xander said. "Yeah. Where apparently it's okay to talk about Twinkies - just not ferret sex."

Re: Punch (pre-spiking)

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

Molly rolled her eyes. "That guy, Marty, really gets around, huh?"

Re: Punch (pre-spiking)

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Bridge giggles, "Yeah, I'm still not sure what was up with the whole ferret thing."

Re: Punch (pre-spiking)

[soldtoarmenians]

"Jake and I were trying to figure out what's so special about making out like ferrets when Professor Dream shut us down in class," Xander says. "Um, through discussion, not experimentation."

Re: Punch (pre-spiking)

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

Molly snickered. "That class is pretty cool, but I'm wasn't too sure about talking to that spider yesterday." She made a face.

Re: Punch (pre-spiking)

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"You guys talked to a *spider*?" Bridge asks, a little disturbed.

Re: Punch (pre-spiking)

[soldtoarmenians]

"It was pretty friendly, actually," Xander answered. "Makes me feel kind of guilty about the spider-bits I'm pretty sure are in Jeremiah's food-sticks."

Re: Punch (pre-spiking)

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

Molly made a face again. "I don't like bugs or spiders at all. I hope the next thing we get to talk to is something cool."

Re: Punch (pre-spiking)

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Dude, you guys should totally talk to Earl!" Bridge bounces.

Re: Punch (pre-spiking)

[soldtoarmenians]

Xander looked - carefully - interested. "Should I ask who Earl is?"

Re: Punch (pre-spiking)

"Oh! Callisto, Hamlet, Kawalsky and I found him wandering the forest last semester. He's a minature giraffe, and he lives with the music teacher now!"

Re: Punch (pre-spiking)

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

Molly's eye's lit up. "A miniature giraffe? That is so cool! I'd love to talk to him."

Re: Punch (pre-spiking)

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"He is cool," Bridge says, totally trying not to say anything that could get misconstrued as a euphemism.
