Re: [OPEN/MASS THREAD] Valentine's Day Party

[Clair Sauvage]

Clair took a swig of his drink before he remembered he was supposed to be keeping his head.

"Kay, guys," he shuffled backwards so they could have some space to - yeah, it was whispering.

"I say we dare them to go raid the potions store for veritaserum. Then we can start playing this game properly."

His eyes flitted from face to face, searching for someone who'd support him. Christian, maybe? He must want to get back at Margo for setting Clytemnestra on him for the second time in one week. Hell, he must want to get back at Clytemnestra herself by now.

[Christian Zabini]

Completely unable to come up with a way to fix whatever he had just caused for Charlotte, Christian sighed and shifted his weight, wondering how long he actually had to participate before he could leave without people complaining. He wasn't sure if he actually cared about their teasing, but he also wasn't confident in his ability to ignore it if he kept drinking.

But Clair rounded the boys up, more or less, and came up with an idea that wasn't strictly embarrassing. Of course, there was a catch.

"That sounds fine," he agreed just as quietly. "But shouldn't we add that everyone has to take it? Or at least that they do? Seems like the punishment for not following suit is to drink," he added with a glance towards Belby. "So either we all take it, or people are getting incredibly drunk.

"I just think it'd help us skip a few steps, and of course make any other truths much more... believable."

His look, that time, was directed at the Yaxleys. Nobody, Christian was convinced, actually believed their answers. And he had no clue about Ezra. But if they were going to do this, then at least they could all play fair -- even if it meant doing something he wasn't quite sure they really should.

[Cronis Yaxley]

To be completely fair, Cronis hadn't been lying. Not entirely. As for Evander, he hadn't a clue if what he'd said was the truth. Merlin, he hoped not. He wasn't sure how he was supposed to deal with his brother liking the same girl as him too. That was just weird. Cronis wasn't for it at all.

He really couldn't care less if anyone believed his answer, anyways. Sure, he's hesitated momentarily which made it seem suspicious but that didn't mean anything. He thought Molly was.. attractive, and like any other teenage boy who'd thought a girl was attractive, he had thought he probably wasn't supposed to have.

Sue him.

(Evander, on the other hand had been completely lying, but Cronis didn't need to know that just yet.)

Cronis shrugged. "I don't see a problem with it. I'd say it makes it even more interesting if we all take it. So, I'm complete game for it. Evan?" He turned to the younger twin who gave an awkward shrug. Cronis rolled his eyes. "He's in, too."

Evander definitely was not. But Cronis wasn't going to let him chicken out, since it was his fault they were involved in the first place.

[Ezra Belby]

Ezra heard what someone suggested for the girls to bring. Since everyone seemed to agree what that idea then he had no choice anyways.

He had no idea if he had lied earlier or no. He hasn't really thought about girls much. He barelt even flirts with the girls. So yeah he spends his free time too much on reading books.

"Well. I'm not against the idea. Since seems like everyone has agreed on that already," he said.

Cassiopeia was actually surprised to hear her name to come from Ezra Belby mouth. She had never expect that but she didn't say anything about it. She didn't think like him that way for sure.

[Margo P. Richards]

Margo was absolutely planning on Clair to be the one to deliver. The Yaxley twins wasted their babe potential with entirely wholesome minds that probably would have come up with something mildly embarrassing, rather than a dare that could actually get this party going. She suspected Christian had it in him, but she doubted he would be the one to hatch a plot that could end in anyone getting hurt. And Ezra... well, she didn't know much about Ezra, but his complacency thus far in the game told her that she shouldn't hold her breath waiting for him to do anything particularly exciting.

Margo lifted her chin and shouted, "C'mon, boys, don't keep us in suspense." She turned to look at the rest of the girls and raised an eyebrow mischievously. "Whatever they say, we do it. Okay? And we do it ten times better than they would. Because..." Really it was because she wanted to get things going. But she probably needed a better excuse. "Feminism. You with me?" She cast her eyes around the group, before tilting her head in confusion. "Where'd Molly go?"

By that point, the Weasley girl was at the door. And she wasn't looking back.

[Darian Levski]

Charlotte just kept looking at Molly like she is insane. Hell no, she wouldn't do everything, Margo and her feminism could go to the hell.
But still, she didn't leave the game, even when she saw Molly, Charlotte stayed at the place. maybe one wild part of her wanted to know what would happen in this insane game. Even now she was definitely sure things would get bad, really bad.

Darian was standing at the corner of the big room while Margo and that Waldorf girl started the game.
Truth or dare.
Classic.
For the moment he was thinking about the idea to skip the game but still, almost all hot girls were there so he found himself telling the name out loud while he was making his path to the group.
"Cassie" to be honest, that was the first name he could think about, maybe because Gryffindor was standing totally confused and that was why he decided to do everything he could to make her feel even more uncomfortable.

"How are you, sweetie?" He gave her one of his best smiles.

[Clair Sauvage]

Well, the majority had agreed and that was all Clair needed. He whirled to face Margo's mocking.

"You have to go steal some veritaserum from Professor Potter's store," he told them. Did her title sound a little mocking on his tongue? Maybe.

"And then, when you come back, we'll drink it if you do. Truth or dare is no fun if you can just lie your way out of it, after all."

He grinned at Margo triumphantly. For everyone else, this was just a game but for the two of them, it was a battle of wits. Or at least wills. And it wasn't like she could back down after that display of bravado.

[Cassiopeia Cheshire]

Cassiopeia looked around there and waited for the dare what boys will give now. She didn't excpect that someone else will join with the game suddenly. She heard even her nickname. She just rolled her eyes on that.

She didn't expect it from Darian Levski and same time she didn't even know the boy well. She had no idea if he told truth or lied. Actually she didn't care much about it.

Cassie looked at Levski boy. "Hello there, I'm good, could always be better and also bit bored right nkw. What about you?" She had just replied because she didn't have nothing much to do any was.

When Cassie heard what was dare then she sighed. She knew it won't be that easy for sure. They needed some plan for it. She looked at the other girls. She did take sip from her own drink. She.knows she soons needs new one.

Ezra was there just waiting and being quiet. He had no idea what to say or even do. He is sure he will soon leave like the one girl named Molly had done.

[Darian Levski]

"Then you should do something to not be bored anymore" he smiled again and grab one glass with rum and gave it to her.
"You should drink sweetie, it makes everything funnier." He winked at her before he tried to came to the group where Clair had the genius idea to make girl stealing something.
"C'mon. We can't wait to see that feminism" he smiled at Margo and then looked at Charlotte who looked like someone take all breath from her, this is something so not Charlotte and he couldn't wait to see if she would join or finally gave up.

But thing Darian didn't know is the fact that Charlotte is not the quitter. She took another drink and when she drunk everything, she realized that she had a little bit too many drinks.
That was why she started laughing out loud and looked at Clair.
"Such a wonderful idea, " she said and while trying to stay on her legs she started walking out of the room to find the dungeon and steal that damn potion.

[Freyja Podmore]

The uncomfortable look in Evander's face over the dare almost made Freyja want to tease him about it. Almost. She thought the dare had a lot of potential, if they were able to get the potion without getting caught. Even then, it was fun to have that pressure in these kinds of things.

Freyja nodded. "Let's do this." She seemed fired up for some reason, maybe because things would get more interesting (and embarrassing) once the potion was brought back and they all took it. It could also be because she wanted to peek even further into Evander's seemingly innocent mind.

She was a terrible friend.

It that was okay because they all loved her anyways. Right? Yeah, she knew she was right.
