Friday Evening: Town Hall: Homecoming (8pm - 10pm)

The first thing that might be noticed when students walked into the Town Hall was the towering stone troll statues that had been dragged in to grace the corners of the dance floor.  It being Homecoming and a semi-formal dance, the trolls were decked out appropriately in hats, glitter, and togas.  Fairy lights were strung across the ceiling, some twined with streamers and some dripping glitter and confetti across the dance floor. 

The walls were decorated with blown up pictures of significant events at Fandom: Graduations, the school blowing up, the Christmas pageants, plays, carnivals, zombies, all the moments that make Fandom Fandom.  Given a place of honour on the walls were a mock up of an exploding volcano, a massive gremlin in a bow tie, and, of course, the Stickbug flag.

Large lit up snowmen congregated around the punch bowl against a snowy backdrop and across the ballroom near the stage, there was a mural of large dinosaurs reaching up to enjoy a glittery streamer dinner.  The wall of the door though had the biggest picture of all - a painting of the island at night from across the water.

As students dropped off their wraps, they were pointed to vote for Homecoming Court then encouraged to proceed into the ballroom.

"Huh?" Jim asked, still looking. He knew she was coming...

Then it registered what Faile had actually asked. "No. I mean, I was hoping to spot Pam... um, my friend, Pam, and say hi. But, no. Not a big deal." He tried to look innocent while taking another drink from his cup.

"If you want to go find her, you can," Faile said. "I'm okay here for now."

"Oh," Jim said. "Really? Okay. I guess I'll catch you around here later, though."

He probably shouldn't have promised that. And he probably shouldn't have agreed so quickly. Later on he would think about the fact that he was just in a terrible headspace to do this tonight.

And that's how Jim ditched his date. Jackass.

"Sure," Faile said and watched Jim walk away.

As soon as he was out of sight, Faile set down her drink and headed for the door. Even if Jim's head hadn't been elsewhere, she didn't think she could have danced to any of the music that had been playing. She would much prefer to go and change back into her more serviceable clothes and spend the evening by herself.
