Darling Summer Party!, Beach, Friday Evening

It had taken some doing to get a decent party together on an island currently off the coast of Atlantis, but the Darlings knew that all things were possible with enough money and a few well-placed tantrums from Juliet. And so the pre-Fourth of July summer fiesta came to be.

Chinese paper lanterns marked off a section of the beach, and a mix of popular music came from the DJ booth in one corner. A barbecue-themed buffet was set up in a tent, which also hosted a few small tables and chairs for anyone who needed to take a break.

Once the sun was all the way down, a special fireworks display was scheduled to go off -- just to add that special finishing frisson to the night.

It was some big student body event, so of course Peter was making his way over, just to see if there was anything he could gain out of the whole thing. Not that he was all that impressed, mind, but hell-- it was a student party, what had he expected?

He gave pause for a moment to shiver internally at the thought of living a life where stuff like this was important, adjusted his shirt, and put on his gameface.

After swinging by the table to grab himself something to drink (and giving it some add flavor with something he'd brought on his own), Nathan was now standing off near the water, smoking a cigarette. He thought it right courteous of him, really.

Nathan was pretty fucking glad this was at night so he wouldn't end up a nice, sizzling red color and instead would just be nice and cool and pale still.

Wesley was around. Mainly because he'd finished classes for the term on Monday and had been more than a little bored lately. So -- a beach party. That was always nice.

Topher got himself a heaping plate of food and milled about the beach. So far, being at Fandom, he'd learned that the whole being-outside problem was lessened by food. Mmm, food.

Stephanie could have passed it off as training, and in a way it was (urban camouflage mode or whatever spooky-sounding thing Bruce wanted to call it), but mostly she'd turned up in support of her roommate, and because parties were fun.

Also, she totally deserved to celebrate not getting her head bitten off by a . . . simulated lion in a room equipped with safety protocols.

Rilla loved parties, so naturally she wasn't going to miss this one. Dressed in a summer-weight white dress, she skipped down to the beach, eager to see who was there.

The last party Angelica had gone to had ended disastrously, but since things had been going well in Fandom -- mostly -- Angelica psyched herself up enough to go. She found a place to sit where she could sip a soda and soak in the last of the day's sun.

Of course Sov wouldn't miss a party, especially not one organised my Juliet. They had spent some time worrying over what to wear though, and had finally decided on a bright red shirt and a pair of jeans.

It was cooler in the evening, which was a good thing.

Toby being Toby, he was mostly here for the free food, but that didn't mean he wasn't gonna wander around and be social as well.

Sam had been keeping a mostly low profile for awhile but he'd ended his self imposed seclusion to come out to the party. He was sipping from a water bottle and had actually come barefoot this time.

He'd rolled the pants of his legs up some and thought about just finally buying a bathing suit or some actual beach attire. Most of his clothes were jeans and t-shirts.

Ramona had gone ultra-casual for this thing -- she didn't really know either of the hosts, so she figured that standing out too much would be uncool of her. That being said, she was still wearing a pink unbuttoned shirt over her bikini top (to match her hair) and white shorts, but she was mingling off to the side with a drink. Most of the time, parties were for people-watching, anyway.

Sookie, in one of her now-sort-of-trademark white sundresses, found herself a place to sun as long as she was able. She had a drink, and was pleased with how the white offset her tan, but mostly she was here for the people-watching.

Billy wasn't a huge party guy, but it seemed rude to turn down an invitation to one when he got it. He had to admit, he was impressed by how well everything was decorated, and he was still looking around as he made his way up the beach.

Mmmm, food.

Dolf hadn't been out much lately at all, and he was hungry. He drifted towards the food almost from the moment he arrived, and by the time anyone might have spotted him, he was already shoveling it onto a plate.

Growing boy.

Yeah, there was no way Percy wasn't going to be a party on the beach. The party was good but being on the beach made it better. He'd gotten himself some food (hamburger and a hot dog) and was walking around slowly, enjoying the sand beneath his feet and the sand of the waves.

Simon didn't know why he gravitated towards the food tables at these things. Maybe because eating things gave him something to do instead of just standing around all awkwardly. So, he was there, eating an ice cream cone and watching people.

Maybe a little awkwardly.

Yeah, Toby had headed for the food tent almost as soon as he'd arrived, loading up a plate to the point where there may have been structural integrity issues.

Stephanie hadn't wasted much time finding herself a good viewing spot, and she'd stretched out on a beach towel (no, it didn't have a bat on it) for the actual show.

She was grinning, a lot . . . and not at all too dignified to let out the occasional loud whoop.
