Homecoming 2017, Community Centre [Saturday Evening]

[omgnochecksyet]

Just when you thought it was time for the island's collective consciousness to maybe move on from the whole sharkicane thing... along came Homecoming! Well, the theme was actually "Under the Sea", but like the Student Council wasn't going to have glitter-encrusted sharks feature heavily in the decorations? Please.

Of course, it wasn't just sharks: there were plenty of glitter-dolphins, and fish, and octopuses octopi octopodes too. Jellyfish-shaped lights hung from the ceiling, and strategically-placed LED projectors were set up to complete the underwater ambiance.

Isabela's narrative had stolen Face's line about being fashionably late. How dare she?

(Because pirate obviously.)

Face however, was not dressed anywhere near so flamboyantly, though he cut a very fine figure indeed.

Luke gave Face a grin.

"Luke," Face called out cheerfully, as he tried to remember if he'd ever actually talked with Fandom's most renowned alumnus (sorry, Anakin) before.

"And I was halfway over and realized that I might not know this version of you," Luke said a little ruefully. "Hello. I'm Luke Skywalker."

Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]

[gavegoodface]

"Face Loran," he said, offering Luke a hand. "I mostly know you by reputation, and the wanted posters."

Yeah, you'd pretty much set Face's version of you up for even more trolling, Luke.

"Are they at least flattering likenesses of me?" Luke asked.

Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]

[gavegoodface]

"I think they got the same guys who used to do promo for my holos to do them, so you look pretty dashing."

Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]

[tatooine_doofus]

"I bet I look taller, too," Luke said, laughing.

Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]

[gavegoodface]

"Extra height comes standard, part of the whole heroic lead image," Face said. "You know, I'm not sure they worked very well as wanted posters."

Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]

[tatooine_doofus]

"Are they up on teenaged girls' walls now?" Luke asked, wincing.

Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]

[gavegoodface]

Face tried to look reassuring. And failed.

"Probably a few teen boys' too."

Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]

[tatooine_doofus]

Luke blushed, shaking his head. "I'm sure you still have pride of place."

Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]

[gavegoodface]

"Well I'm tragically dead before my time," Face pointed out. "Gives me an edge."

Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]

[tatooine_doofus]

"And oh, how we miss you," Luke said, drying his invisible tears with a grin. "Do you watch the holo marathons in your honor?"

Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]

[gavegoodface]

"Occasionally," Face admitted. "Turns out they're a lot more watchable when you're drunk."

Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]

"I'll have to tell Leia," Luke said, grinning. "She's the one who insists on watching them."

Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]

[gavegoodface]

"...really?" Look, Princess Leia was an accomplished older woman, there'd been crushage.

Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]

[tatooine_doofus]

Luke gleefully tossed his twin under that speeder. "Oh, definitely. She insists that you rise above the material."

Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]

[gavegoodface]

*imperial march plays softly*

Face was preening, just a little. Because Princess Leia. "Well, it's not hard material to rise above. Though some people couldn't manage even that." Like Tetran Cowall.

Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]

[tatooine_doofus]

"Oh, I've been forced to sit through enough of them to notice," Luke said dryly. "I didn't see many holos on Tatooine. We didn't have fun there."

Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]

[gavegoodface]

"So they only released Tetran Cowall pieces there?" Petty Face was petty.

Re: Arrive & Mingle [Homecoming 2017]

[tatooine_doofus]

Luke burst out laughing. "Oh, they weren't that bad."

They were. They really were.

"He tried hard?"
