Event 27 - After Finals Party

[pendulum_soul]

*Today is the day for Yuya's After Finals Party which is being held at the Obelisk Blue male dorms, in their huge events hall. This party is for everyone to celebrate their finals success and to see off the students graduating this year.
It is also open to new students, who will be starting the Academy in the new semester!

For Yuya, this is the last event he will be hosting at the academy as their events organiser, so anyone familiar with his parties will notice he's gone all out on everything! There's a very gold and red theme with the decorations that are everywhere, including gold and red balloons, streamers and tassels. There is also plenty of food and drink at the buffet table.

One side of the hall has tables and chairs, with balloons as their centre pieces. There is also a dance floor on the other side of the hall.

There is no particular dress code for the party, though dressing up in nice party clothes was encouraged!

As always; Post, mingle and have some fun!*

::Is sitting at a table, swirling juice in her hand with the exact atmosphere that scares people off.::

[dreammoonchild]

::Is in a dress, and much like her 'mother' and 'aunt', has zero clue how to interact with normal human beings.::

[hardcorebestcore]

"You look nervous!"

Oh god whatever this is is loud and bouncing and in a nightmare of lace and frills and oranges and purples.

... wait. Isn't this the girl that mocked you when you were in a net once?

[lunalightlady]

::Is in a burgundy evening dress, but she looks like she wants to go on adventure and discover a frozen mammoth. ... Another frozen mammoth. Besides the one she already found.::

[melodiousmaestra]

*Approaching, wearing what had to be the pinkest dress you owned, that Yuzu thankfully would unironically wear.*

You okay, Serena?

[wherethemiceare]

::Is meanwhile, sitting down with food wearing a poofy pink dress, wondering if she should use chopsticks or a fork-and-knife set. Hrm.::

[monochromaticdays]

*of course Hitoshi is here. Desperately attempting to not be entirely noticed as he hangs out in a corner somewhere, watching while drinking some of the punch.

He does like the party, sure, but social stuff has always been kinda hard...*

[ancient_prophecy]

::A mass of blue-pink frills on 1950s rollerskates is rolling towards you with a tray of food. Like in the out of control she's about to crash into you sense of rolling towards you.::

Watch out!

::Probably too late.::

[memoryistime]

*Sadame is here as his last real supervision job, before he takes his time off...

... but also Shian is here too, trying to not look so sour that they end up dragging down the entire mood of the dang party.

The results here are mixed.*

[hardcorebestcore]

Hey, Shian.

Guess who's sneaking up on you? And by sneaking I mean wriggling across the floor, humming the Metal Gear Solid theme?

[wherethemiceare]

::Looks at you, Shain, pondering... and immediately glomps.::

[rideon_clearwings]

*People at the party might hear a loud revving sound in the distance, but it's drowned out by the music being played. Until it gets closer. And closer. And students start staring at the big doorway to the events hall-- at which then they realize some poor Obelisk Blue students are running away in terror. At that point, a D-Wheel finally busts through, with Yugo at the wheel (of course), but also his terrible influence of a brother, Yuri, is riding behind him. Yugo screeches to a halt, powering down the D-Wheel itself, before raising up his hands, face still hidden by his helmet's visor.* FREEEEEEDOOOOMMMMMM

[predaprince]

Yuri has been laughing maniacally this whole time and egging his brother onwards. He's dressed in a crisp, velvet suit and carrying a bouquet of flowers.

"Yes! Freedom!

Congratulations to the graduating class of Duel Academy! And to the newly accepted students!"

[hardcorebestcore]

Trena's here! She's in a huge party dress and has clearly snuck too much soda (so like, one) and she's bouncing from foot to foot. You can find her either on the dance floor (and she will be dancing with you, unless you tell her no very adamantly) or eating.

Where does all of that go? It is a mystery.

[shiningsylvia]

"Hey, Trena!"

*Your old pal Sylvia (You've known each other for like a year but don't worry about it) approaches you near the foodstuffforeating, with a relieved look on her face.*

"Need normal human interaction. Desperately. Please try your best."

[melody_tomozawa]

Melody Tomozawa, dressed in a pretty red flower dress that came up just above her knees, wandered around the party hall carrying a glass of red tropical juice with an umbrella in the glass.

She had been invited to said party almost immediately after passing her entrance exam, and decided to attend so as not to be rude.

But now that she was here, she didn't really know what to do. She really wasn't used to being......around people.

As Melody continued to wander, she watched everyone else dancing, eating, goofing around, and otherwise making merry. She couldn't help but feel out of place here, but did her best to try to keep a low profile.

[cattailtricks]

*well, someone else is keeping a low profile here too, and you just about bump into them.

The first thing you may notice though about the person you bumped into is that they have a cat tail. ... and cat ears. b-but they're human otherwise?

And also they're a girl, that too.*

Oh-- oh, sorry about that. I wasn't watching where I was going.

[pendulum_soul]

*In the middle of the party, there is a break in the music as Yuya, who is dressed in a white shirt, red tie and a grey waistcoat and trousers, walks up to the top of the dance floor with a microphone.*

Hey everyone!

As you know, or may not know, I'm one of the many that is in the graduating class of this year, which means that this is the last ever event I could organise here as the student events organiser, so I thought I'd prepare a little speech.

I've really enjoyed organising these events over the past three years and I consider myself really lucky to have gotten this experience! I hope the events and parties I ran helped you all to have fun and gave you something to look forward to and smile about, other than classes and schoolwork, that is!

*There is some laughing from the crowd, cos really, who looks forward to classes and schoolwork!*

I'm going to miss being able to organise these events for you, but we all eventually have to move on to other things. The Academy will be in charge of choosing a new events organiser, so they will be taking applications for it when the new school year starts.

I also want to give a big shout out to Tome-san, who has always been my partner in crime in organising these events. She was happy to get involved, plan things with me, order in what supplies I needed and was always ready to back the party up with an amazing selection of food. So, whoever gets chosen to take my place, Tome-san is your best friend and will happily help you with everything you need.
Also a big thanks to the Academy staff, for agreeing to let me loose with streamers and balloons and for supervising the events.

I also want to give a big thanks to my friends and my brothers, who were supportive, in their own ways, to these events and helped out when I needed it.

Anyway, I guess I've rambled enough! Now lets party to celebrate the end of our finals, the graduating class and the new students who are starting in the new semester!!

*When he finishes the speech, party poppers go off, sending a sea of streamers over everyone on the dance floor as the music starts back up.

A little while later, Yuya can be found hanging out at the edge of the dance floor with a nostalgic look on his face. You can see this event is rather bittersweet for him. He's happy he's graduated, and moving on to life outside the Academy, but kinda sad that this is last event he could organise for the Academy.*

[melodiousmaestra]

*Well, of course Yuzu's approaching you, Yuya. She's wearing a very pink party dress that would look weird on anyone else but her, really.* That was sure a speech, there. Gonna miss throwing these parties?

[allunseeing]

*for once, Shirou isn't just blindly going around. He is actually heading for you.

In fact, he has a sorta expression about him like he had just realized where exactly you were, as he smiles when he finally reaches you.*

Hello, Yuya.

[lunalightlady]

::Walking up to you in a burgundy dress.::

You know, most people don't give that much thanks to people during speeches.

[hardcorebestcore]

No sneaking, no bouncing. Actually the most solemn Trena that anyone has ever seen.

"Hey Yuya!

Um... Good party. And... thank you for always doing this."

[melody_tomozawa]

Suddenly, a pretty blonde girl approached Yuya and bowed to him.

"Gokigenyo, Yuya-sempai. My name is Melody Tomozawa, and I'll be joining Duel Academy this year as a Ra Yellow. I'm terribly sorry to disturb you, but there was something I had to ask you. By any chance are you.....related to Yuusho Sakaki?"

[frightfulfusion]

::Meanwhile, Sora's kicking his feet, sitting in a chair at a table. Giving the exact air that spooks nearly every other student from coming near him. He's deep in thought.::

[cattailtricks]

*the cat here is less spooked.

But she's watching you from another table, her tail flicking in thought.*

[sketchthefuture]

*Tomoko is here!
Maybe she isn't a full time student at Duel Academy yet, but this year she's one of the few students being accepted on an advanced placement at the school, while finishing up her last year at the Domino Academy.

Dressed in a simple cute pink dress with hearts on it and a little white purse hanging over her shoulder to her side, she's making starry eyes at all the nice looking desserts!

Then she looks left. Then right. Then she quickly takes an eclair and then... puts it in her purse, before quickly making a 'ssshh' sound, holding her finger in front of her mouth.

What has she smuggled into the party?*

[dreammoonchild]

::A girl with twin tails walks past you, noticing you Shhhiing. Hrms.::
