Room of Requirement.

[christianish]

The Ramones were playing. Danny thought he'd had a heartattack when he saw the phonograph, and his grin eclipsed itself when he shuffled over to a shelf and read the record titles. This room was, in a word, amazing

Hannah was in a daze... Where was she? She saw some beanbag chairs and stumbled over to them. She flopped onto a blue one and closed her eyes...

[patfiddlesticks]

Patrick stormed behind the bar counter, pressed hands against the edge of the countertop, and immediately fell to his knees. Teeth clenched as fingertips dug into the cold wood. He sobbed, then immediately brought a hand down to cover it. He didn't want to cry. Not here, not now, not infront of everyone who now had a pretty good idea of what he'd been hiding for five years now.

Daciana walked up to where Patrick was standing hunched over the bar, the sight quickly sobering her.

"Are you all right?" she asked quitely, coming to stand next to him and trying to look him in the eye. "Is there something I can do?"

[patfiddlesticks]

Patrick quickly ran fingertips over his cheeks, looking almost terrified that she had seen him like this. "I ah, um.." he stammered out, then simply just placed hands over his face again. With a sigh, he groaned "..fuck, Daciana. I'm fucked up. And I've fucked everything up. Everything. Fucking.. fuck.. goddamnit all.."

[violeteyewonder]

Daciana put her hand on his back and tried to look him in the eye. "You're preaching to choir. Seriously, no matter how fucked up you think you are, I'm sure I could match you blow for blow, drop for drop. And who cares who messed everything up? It just gets fucked up anyways, who cares who starts it? It's not your fault," she said, and then she stopped pausing, before continuing. "If it's anyone's fault, it's all of our's for being here, at this party. No one person did it."

She started to rub his back with her hand, "Tell me, what can I do?"

Tristan had finally managed to find the room and as he entered his eyebrows shot up at the sight. 'That's what you deserve for being late. You'll never catch up with them.' Maybe he should just find Danny, give him the present and then leave as quickly as possible.

Jelly was not so immersed in her concocting as to miss the drama around her, or Tristan’s appearance. Breezing by, searching for a second pan, she pushed a mint julep into his hands. “Welcome to the mayhem. Warning: rampant smooching by rowdy smashed teenagers in progress. Watch your virtue. Food’ll be ready in twenty minutes.”

[elanor_munwane]

Elanor wasn't entirely sure what was going on. She seemed to remember something about rugby and lots of shouting. And her cup still had something in it.

But, even in total inebriation, Elanor recognized one word: FOOD.

"Jellyan! Food you say! Where'd you put it?"

[jelly_ashworth]

“The risotto will be done shortly. And the birthday boy wants kheer for desert. Pray, we don’t run out of rice. Or better yet organize a hunting party to the kitchens.” Brimming with good-humor, and savoring the pleasant stress-charge, Jelly nodded to a large covered dish. “Cinderella, be a hero and stick some sparklers in the quiche, will ya? There should a bag of them around here somewhere. Also, what are you drinking and do I have to confiscate it on principle?”

A WHILE later...........

[christianish]

((OOC: note, time has elapsed wherein Danny & Remy are in the side room that Danny dragged Remy off to. Now the birthday boy has reappeared and is astonishingly sober. Or is he?))

Danny appeared suddenly at Tristan's elbow. "Tristan!" he exclaimed. "I didn't see you come in."

Re: A WHILE later...........

[elanor_munwane]

"O'Neill!" Elanor exclaimed with surprise.

She inspected him for a minute. "Is that a wand in your pocket?" Her brow furrowed.

Re: A WHILE later...........

[penny_cervantes]

Penelope nodded to Elanor. "We know each other. He's a snake." she told her as if it would answer everything. She smiled at the girl who gave her a drink. Anyone who gave her a drink right now was good on her list. "Penelope, pleased to meet you. I'm all about lion pride! Thank you for the drink. It tastes good. What's in it?" It was amazing how despite how drunk she was, she could still offer up a decent greeting. She looked at the new comer and recognized him immediately by his sunglasses. "O'Neil!" she exclaimed with Elanor. "You're very late."

Re: A WHILE later...........

[lilith_dulac]

"Christian!" Tristan said warmly and let go of Elanor for a moment to hug the other boy. "Haven't seen you in a while. Happy Birthday, mate."

The Slytherin reached into his pocket and pulled out a small box. "Here, I even got a present for you, though you don't quite deserve it. It's an small amulet and serves to protect the wearer." he said smiling.

Outside the RoR

[andraleigh]

Andra ducked out and slipped behind a nearby statue, watching the door. Patrick wouldn't let her go, but she couldn't stay. They'd get it over with so that she could go back to the Tower and sleep off the horrible rolling in her stomach.

Re: Outside the RoR

[patfiddlesticks]

Pat slipped out just a few moments after her, glanced back as the door closed, then leaned against the wall. "...so sorry, Andra."

Re: Outside the RoR

[andraleigh]

Andra peered around the statue, forcing herself to look at him. "Did anyone see you?"

Re: Outside the RoR

[patfiddlesticks]

Pat shook his head. "I told them I was going out for air. I don't think they even saw you slip out."
