Homecoming Dance | Town Hall | Saturday Evening | Post I

Glitter encrusted moosen stood guard in the entry to the transformed Town Hall, reminding all those in attendance that the night was about all things Canadian. Or things the Student Council had deemed Canadian - plus a whole lot of glitter.

Sparkly red maple leaves and paper geese hung from irridescent streamers, setting off the food tables as very much separate from the raised dance floor in case the terrifying papier-mâché beaver didn't make it obvious that the timbits were for eating. Or for dunking in the maple syrup fountain. Beyond pure sugar, there were plenty of bite-size portioned food and nonalcoholic beverages to push the theme into the bellies of all, no matter how tight the dresses!

Beyond the dance floor, the shadowy corners glowed with the twinkle of glittery maple leaf garland and a Joni Mitchell inspired moose that had been strategically positioned to look rather tragic in its lyric-covered glory. Yes, glory. For the evening was to be glorious. Or at the very least entertaining.

Welcome to your 2011 Homecoming Dance!

"Never been the piner?" Marshall asked. Shut up, it was totally a word. "I dunno, I just... What if he freaks out? I don't think he would, but how can you know for sure, right?"

"Oh, no, I've always been the piner. But I assume actually getting the guy is better," Billy explained. "It would be really nice if guys all came with a label saying whether or not they'll freak out if another guy likes them. It'd make life so much easier, and less painful."

"So you've never dated anyone, either?" Marshall asked. "I mean, I've dated a couple of girls at my old school, but..." He shrugged. "I dunno. They never made me feel like this."

Like he'd discovered a piece he hadn't known he was missing.

Billy shook his head. "No, I've never dated anyone. I mean, I haven't tried to date anyone either, but...it was pretty clear at my last school that I was the lone freak. So there didn't seem like much of a point in trying to find someone else like me. But I haven't dated any girls either. I don't know if I'd know what to do if I dated anyone," he said with a laugh.

"One of them scheduled our lives to the minute, and the other was only dating me so she could eat me," Marshall explained, laughing at himself a bit. "Literally. So I don't really have any idea what to do, either."

"Wait a second. Eat you? Like, a vampire or something?" Billy said. Suddenly, his lack of dating didn't seem so bad in comparison.

"Venus fly trap, actually," Marshall explained. "Which was turned into a girl. It actually belonged to the other girl I ended up dating. My last school was... actually, it's about as weird as this one. Less talking ponies, though."

"Woooow. Um, if it's any consolation, I don't think any of the guys around here are into eating people?" At least, not that he knew of anyway.

"Not unless we ask nicely?" Marshall asked, laughing. "Thanks, that does make me feel better. Watch out if anyone has any flesh-eating plants, though. You never know what'll happen when the island gets an idea."

Flesh-eating plant plus Velveteen Rabbit weekend equals disaster?
