NEW YEAR'S EVE PARTY

NEW YEAR'S EVE PARTY
what's up? Tonight, Valkyrie Horvat is throwing her very first house party! Her parents are out of town, and that means it's time for teens to get wasted on champagne. With the help of a local older boy, Cache Fogarty, Val has a well-stocked bar.

The Horvat home is located in a magical suburb full of massive houses of questionable taste. It's five stories of nonsense, which is way too much space for three people and their cats. The decor looks like it came out of a home furnishing magazine: pristine, beige, lacking in personality. It's begging to be covered in confetti and glitter, and no one this rich is going to miss that vase they probably bought from WizAnthropologie.

In fact, the only really exciting thing about Val's house is that is'f full of cats. Most of them are kneazel-persian designer kitties, and a lot of them are young kittens ready for adoption (if you have the $$$). There's a room dedicated to the littlest kittens and their moms, but no rowdy partying it allowed in there!
visuals!

volunteer slots! Poppy Kreitzer bonds with one of the clever little kittens in the kitten room, and is sad to say goodbye. But Poppy doesn't stay parted from the wily little thing for long, because when they get home, they discover it somehow managed to hitch a ride in their bag/purse/jacket. Surprise!

Val should probably ask for it back.

Aristotle Ahn gets hopelessly lost in the maze of identical looking rooms, and the magical McMansion curse seems reluctant to let them go. They've definitely seen that watercolor of the Bountiful Mormon temple several times while trying to return to the party. Luckily, Valkyrie I (the kneazel, not the girl) finds them and leads them back to safety.
how this works! It's a party!!!

Val would prefer you not break anything but she's on the outs with her mom so, like, whatever, you know? Just don't break her stuff.

Like the genius she is, Val invited the whole school. Even sophomores. Especially the Quackenbushes.

There are some local kids here too, so if you have a thing for clean cut Mormon wizards and witches, you can get your flirt on with individuals such as Glade Ploegin, Bostyn, Kennedee, Kenedi or Kenidy. Cache Fogarty seems to be the local heartthrob.

Do a kiss at midnight!
locations! WHAT'S UP?: I figure we all might be a little overwhelmed with NYE and other ic/oocs, so feel free to just summarize what your kids were up to!

THE PARTY: The hottest location is the kitchen (all the appliances are massive and very shiny, and the island is big enough to use as a stage) and the licing room (with a grand fireplace and enough sofas to seat a dozen people).

THE REST OF THE HOUSE: There's no lack of rooms to sneak off to. Val's room is locked, but there are at least six bedrooms and four offices that are furnished but very unlived in. Don't get lost! (It's incredibly easy to get lost. This house may look normal enough, but there's definitely magic going on if you stray from the main rooms.)

THE KITTEN ROOM: If you promise to be good, Val will grant you access to the kitten room. These kittens are all under six weeks old, and they're very clever and mischievous. They absolutely know right from wrong, and every drunk teenager is a potential mark. Don't let them escape.

VALKYRIE I: An aging kneazel, Valkyrie I sits proudly on a designer cat tree watching the party like an elderly matron. She seems to see right into your soul. Will she let you pet her? Fill out the form below to find out.

MIDNIGHT: Everyone is given a glass of champagne that's enchanted to make you extra giggly and giddy. Toast and maybe get a New Year's Eve kiss!

"Big bless this big mess," Jupiter says to the group of them, as though in toast, as she offers the unlit cig ceremoniously to Merlin. "May the doink reveal to each of you your animagus form."

Fitz, bad at waiting his turn but determined to be at least a halfway-decent party guest, is already restless. He's totes in the circle because he likes being high and not because he wants to do better in class, because he... totally doesn't care about that. Like, at all. "If I'm a jellyfish can someone put me in a tub for the night? Maybe turn down the lights and leave me a lava lamp." He requests, flopping out to stretch on his stomach instead. "Drying out's a total party foul."

"No promises," Merlin answers, aiming a faint smirk at Fitz before he picks up Tybalt's lighter and takes the joint from Jupiter and just...stares at them for a moment. But he's in this now. He lights the joint and brings it to his lips, just managing not to cough as he pulls in the first breath of smoke. On the second he's less lucky, giving a small sputter as he holds it out in front of him and observes wryly, "...This tastes like shit."

He looks to Jupiter, uncertain just how long he's supposed to keep doing this.

Pax has been silently observing the whole time, just sort of lounging around on various other participants, munching on all the snacks she's brought. Doesn't seem so bad so far! She's not overly invested in trying this out, except that it might help her transform, so sitting on the sidelines until necessary seems like a good move.

Merlin's sputter and opinion on the taste makes her laugh, though, and she engages enough to hold out a cookie to him.

"Maybe this'll help," she chirps.

Armani claps unnecessarily for Merlin, impressed by his... big fat rip? Or maybe it's a medium sized rip. He can't tell the difference except that there's smoke. Either way, it's Forbidden and VERY Cool.

"Do you feel anything?"

Felicity materializes next to Pax and takes a bite out of the cookie before anyone can stop her -- as good a sign as any that she'll someday turn into a raccoon. She swallows, but crumbs still manage to spill out of her mouth when she speaks. "Yeah, how do you feel? Your smoke clouds look like a..." Her eyes narrow in focus for a moment before suddenly going big. "A duck!"

Momentarily distracted by Armani's praise, which makes him perk up and flash the other boy a smile, Merlin doesn't realize that Felicity has intercepted his cookie until she starts goading him and he turns to see the damage. He gapes and, for the moment, all he feels is irritation.

"You look like a duck," he shoots back indignantly, reaching to take his treat from Pax. He forces himself to take one more deep drag on the joint before holding it out for someone else. That has to be enough, right?
