Event 27 - After Finals Party

*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!*

Melody let the girl out into the hall, took a deep breath, then looked her right in the eye.

"Okay, listen. I don't mean to be rude, but last I checked, girls with cat ears and tails wasn't exactly normal. And yes, I know. 'Normal' is kind of subjective, given that Neo Domino City's had to deal with ancient Egyptian shadow games, Aztec dragon gods fighting a sealed demon, and bloody ATLANTIS, but still......."

Melody took a moment to steel herself before continuing.

"So anyway, I'd just feel a lot better if you tell me more about yourself. I mean, you mentioned you were born this way, but......are you from some kind of ancient cat tribe? Are you a Duel Spirit brought to life by a shadow charm? Were you born with some kind of curse? Just what in blazes ARE you?"
cattailtricks: (Flustered)

[personal profile] cattailtricks 2018-10-03 03:15 pm (UTC)(link)
*seems a little flummoxed by the questions*

Well... I guess technically there is a curse? Least from what I vaguely heard about... But I don't think that's why I'm a cat, no. I was just born like this, that's all I know.

*she looks away slightly*

I mean-- I get it that you're pretty off-put by my appearance, but isn't it weird to ask something so personal when we just met? If you wanna know more about me, I'm an Obelisk Blue student who uses Chemicritters. I actually wanted to join LDS, but they rejected my application for some reason. *she gives a huffing sound, like she's still way annoyed by that.*

A sad look suddenly crossed Melody's face.

"You're right, I'm sorry. I've been acting like a right git to you, and I really shouldn't."

She then smiled and held out her hand.

"So, let's start over! Hi, I'm Melody Tomozawa! I'll be joining Duel Academy this year as a Ra Yellow!"
cattailtricks: (Staring)

[personal profile] cattailtricks 2018-10-04 02:37 am (UTC)(link)
Well, uh...

*she takes a deep breath. Least she's trying to restart there? Just roll with it. She takes your hand, shaking it.*

I'm Sonia. Uh... Samasu, Sonia. I'm going to be a third year.

[personal profile] melody_tomozawa 2018-10-04 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
"It's nice to meet you, Sonia-sempai. Shall we head back inside? It seems like that Yuya guy's about to make a speech."
cattailtricks: (Saddened)

[personal profile] cattailtricks 2018-10-04 03:00 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, right. Yuya... *she seems to think about something for a moment, but then she mentally waves it off.*

Right, he and Hiiragi-san are graduating. It's a bit sad to realize.
melody_tomozawa: (Default)

[personal profile] melody_tomozawa 2018-10-04 02:15 pm (UTC)(link)
The two headed back into the party hall and listened to Yuya's speech.

"So, I'm guessing that Yuya guy and that Hiiragi girl are friends of yours? Come to think of it, something about that Yuya guy seems awfully familiar......"
cattailtricks: (Flustered)

[personal profile] cattailtricks 2018-10-04 03:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah... Not really close friends or anything! But I admire them from the Super Junior League. Especially Hiiragi-san, since she ended up the first singles champion...
melody_tomozawa: (Default)

[personal profile] melody_tomozawa 2018-10-10 02:54 am (UTC)(link)
"Super Junior League, huh? I've never been much for the whole pro duelist scene......"
cattailtricks: (Staring)

[personal profile] cattailtricks 2018-10-10 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
Hnmm... *her tail flicks around a bit*

So why are you coming to Duel Academy, specifically?
melody_tomozawa: (Default)

[personal profile] melody_tomozawa 2018-10-10 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
Melody took out her phone, poked it a few times, then showed it to Sonia.

On the screen was a man dressed like Dark Magician, a woman dressed like Dark Magician Girl, and a little 5-year-old Melody dressed like Card Ejector.

The three of them were happily waving at the camera.

"Because these two are the most wonderful parents a poor little rich girl could ever have, and they deserve to have a daughter who can duel with the best of them."
cattailtricks: (Uncertain)

[personal profile] cattailtricks 2018-10-11 12:47 am (UTC)(link)
... O-oh. I see.

*somehow, Sonia seems rather bothered by that picture.*

Well... That's good, isn't it? That you feel like you can do something for them, coming here.
melody_tomozawa: (Default)

[personal profile] melody_tomozawa 2018-10-12 06:24 am (UTC)(link)
"It is. But there's something else, too."

Melody took a card out of her deck and stared at it thoughtfully. It was Madolche Queen Tiaramisu.

"Thanks to mastering this deck, I've really had sort of a.....thing for Xyz summoning. And I'm wondering if I can learn more about it here."
cattailtricks: (Saddened)

[personal profile] cattailtricks 2018-10-12 05:19 pm (UTC)(link)
... Well, you should be able to. This is one of the best schools there is.

Though if you had wanted to just focus on Xyz Summoning, being in LDS might've been a better choice...
melody_tomozawa: (Default)

[personal profile] melody_tomozawa 2018-10-13 09:29 am (UTC)(link)
"I don't JUST want to focus on Xyz summoning. Besides, LDS is full of a bunch of selfish egotistical elitists who think that they're the best of the best just because they're LDS students. Especially that one spoiled brat by the name of Masumi Koutsu, who I've had the EXTREME pleasure of beating TWICE."
cattailtricks: (Huffy)

[personal profile] cattailtricks 2018-10-15 12:02 am (UTC)(link)
I wanted to go to LDS.

*says that in a rather huffy manner.*
melody_tomozawa: (Default)

[personal profile] melody_tomozawa 2018-10-15 12:05 am (UTC)(link)
Melody takes a sip from her drink.

"Soooo.....how come you applied here instead? I could be wrong, but isn't LDS easier to get into than Duel Academy?"
cattailtricks: (Saddened)

[personal profile] cattailtricks 2018-10-15 12:06 am (UTC)(link)
Actually, no. I tried to go to LDS first, but they rejected me for "insufficient credentials."

I still don't know entirely what that means. *crossing her arms*
melody_tomozawa: (Default)

[personal profile] melody_tomozawa 2018-10-15 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
"Well, if it makes you feel any better, LDS can't be all that great if the rest of the students are anything like that skank Masumi. And she was supposed to be the top student of the Fusion course."
cattailtricks: (Huffy)

[personal profile] cattailtricks 2018-10-15 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
*Somehow, she feels like she's way nicer than she's letting on here, since LDS students come around to SJL all the time and they're never... "skanks". But she keeps quiet on that.*

I'd still rather be at LDS, but I've been here a year already. I'm not gonna change it.
melody_tomozawa: (Default)

[personal profile] melody_tomozawa 2018-10-15 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
"Wow, a whole year, huh? So......what kind of students can I expect to run into here?"

Melody was tempted to ask "Are there any other cat people here" but decided not to as that would be rude to her senpai.
cattailtricks: (Curious 2.0)

[personal profile] cattailtricks 2018-10-15 01:33 am (UTC)(link)
*in the current span of time this takes place, she'd be able to answer "no", and yet--*

Well, you can meet all types here. There's a lot of people who are here for their own reasons, and we even have people who're doing post-graduate work. I think we got a couple transfers from another Academy who graduated before, but since their school's much smaller, there's more clout to be represented by Duel Academy, I think.

[personal profile] melody_tomozawa 2018-10-18 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
Melody took another look around the party hall.

"Well, I think I'm gonna go mingle. It was nice meeting you, Sonia-sempai! Hope to see you around school!"

And with that, she took off to do just that.
cattailtricks: (Consideration)

[personal profile] cattailtricks 2018-10-18 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
*... waves Melody off, a bit awkwardly. And then she pulls at her ears a little, contemplating.

Whatever the case is, hopefully she'll be able to manage anything else around here...*
