Parent's Weekend Mixer | Community Center | Evening | March 12

[fratboybitch.livejournal.com]

After what was sure to be a busy day of catching up with family and guests, the local community center was lit up and now open for everyone to come enjoy the party. The decorations inside weren't overly garish or weird and long tables dotted with food and drinks lined the walls. Music was playing and a disco ball spun in the middle of the dance floor.

The night was young and the party was about to get into full swing! Come stop by!

Its impossible to miss the tables of food and drinks so stop on by and find your favorite libation or snack of choice!

Sure, Jake had no visitors this time around. That didn't mean he wasn't going to take advantage of the free food and he was a little curious to see how did show up.

Prim had no idea, still, what most of these things were, but she was absolutely going to take a little bit of everything. How else would she find out?

And if she could figure out a wait to smuggle back some of the ice cream she'd tried yesterday, then she was going to have to figure out how to re-pack everything to fit it all.

Leo, of course, was taking advantage of the free food. Just because he could cook for himself didn't mean he didn't take the free stuff when it was offered. Way less effort.

Having been asked to step away (http://community.livejournal.com/fandomtownies/5768482.html?thread=223035426#t223035426) for a while from Kate and that pretty rude man, Zach found himself lingering by the food table, watching the crowd.

And trying to keep an eye on Kate, though it was hard from so far away.

Amanda took a drink and a little plate of food, and wandered among the crowd, people-watching and looking for those she'd seen here before.

If Luke hadn't called dibs on hiding in their dorm room, brooding it up, Nico would've staid in. But after Apollo kicked his ass for liking Luke too much, it felt awkward to sit in there with Luke and not talk about it.

So he was making friends with the free food. It was the only good thing about these big event weekends. No bad events could ruin free food.

"Rosella, dear! Alexander! Don't stray too far!" Valanice called out to her children lightly, but she was being drawn to the food and drinks to have a look at what was being offered. After meeting with some of Alexander's teachers, she was really looking forward to a little bit of a morsel to enjoy before seeing how Rosella might take to the socializing this time.

Hopefully much better than last time. Really, one would think a girl raised as a princess would have a more charming attitude and social graces than a boy raised as a slave. Her children would never cease to confuse her.

Oooh, more free food. Angel's salary was not exactly generous, so Cordelia -- dressed to kill, thank you very much -- was definitely taking advantage of this as she looked around for anyone who seemed like they might know Wesley.

Would anyone mind if she snuck some cookies in her purse?

Chat it up with other guests, fellow students or local adults! Have fun!

Ender was present at the mixer - and keeping an eye on the drinks to make sure nobody sneaked anything alcoholic in there. He'd had a few snacks earlier that night, though, and so hungry he really wasn't.

With Leda and the others having a girls night out, Leander was left on his own to experience some of the wonders of Fandom. Which so far involved interested people watching. He hadn't seen this kind of mix of folks since leaving Bordertown.

It was refreshing.

How...quaint. A mixer. The lengths Adrienne went for her family, honestly. Ugh. Still, she would smile and try not to spill disdain on everyone.

Katniss was not going to let any of her guests -- well, Cinna was fine on his own, but the prep team were a walking threefold disaster, and Prim was only thirteen -- off on their own, thank you. So when Venia, Octavia and Flavius had heard there was a party and insisted on attending, she had no choice but to go with them.

She'd allowed them to do a faint amount of work on her, too, though she knew there was surely more to come. But for tonight, she'd allowed them to style her hair and apply makeup -- far more than she'd ever do on her own, but Cinna had assured her she was striking and not, well, overdone.

She found a seat where she could keep an eye on Prim, who was studying the food with an intensity she remembered, and the prep team, who were mostly talking to each other. Thank goodness.

The...weirdness of having Todd around was sort of taking a toll on Ramona. On the one hand, having him nearby still sort of made her feel fluttery, in a familiar way. On the other, he was a reminder of a part of her life that she was trying to leave behind.

The result was that she was just going to not deal with it, and instead, she got herself a drink so she could watch the people here. At least it seemed like there were people with weirder and more awkward relatives to deal with. That was something.

Sookie may not have actually had guests of her own, but she was definitely prepared to keep an eye out for other people's visitors as she curled up at a table. And a mental ear out, too, for that matter.

Lionel and Marshall had made their way back from the mainland with more than enough time to spare before the mixer, and now they both had drinks in hand as they surveyed the crowd, Marshall in his suit and Lionel in his more casual and far more colorful clothes.

It was probably against his better judgment that Warren decided to show up to the mixer today. After all, with his dad on the island, he was pretty much bound to be keeping an eye out for him the entire time. He wasn't in the mood to deal with the man right now.

On the other hand, he wasn't in the mood to lock himself in his room and hide for the next couple of days, either, and so him showing up here was almost an act of rebellion all on its own. He'd brought his long coat, in case some of the people from off-island started to get uneasy about a kid with wings, but it was sitting in coat check until he actually needed it.

For now, Warren was kind of chilling out with his back to a wall, people-watching. There were worse ways to spend an evening.

"This place is really into parties, isn't it," Jubilee said aloud. Because she was from a comic, damn it. You said things aloud.

These sort of events weren't really his type of thing but Silas was there anyway, keeping to himself and mostly observing. If there was something he was looking for, no one would be able to tell from his outward expression.

There just wasn't enough Marvel at this party, so Jean had to make an appearance. Maybe to find Scott, maybe to just enjoy being around people for a little bit.

Being dead just killed a social life.

Roberta took a seat, watching the other guests mingle about as she checked her phone for messages. And hoped that Tony and James would crawl out of whatever hole they were in, probably playing video games.

Kate hadn't necessarily wanted to come to the mixer, what with it being a hot spot for bumping into people, but Zach had persuaded her into putting on a pretty dress and coming anyway.

They held hands and pretty much kept to themselves, though, occasionally watching the crowd.
