You know that thing that happens when you put in an Instacart order for 4 bananas and the ~~man~~ person doing your shopping gets you 4 bunches of bananas instead? Zoe was certain she'd ordered 10 bouquets of flowers for decorations, and yet some ~~man~~ person had sent 10 boxes of flowers with 10 bouquets each instead, so now the dance theme was just flowers, flowers everywhere, please take some flowers as you leave if your allergies can handle it. This was what she got for testing shipping through Portalocity, clearly.

At least the food order had been normal, and the drinks were untainted, so it was time for a dance!

bigdamnprincipal

You know, Zoe could get used to the island doing the decorating for her for these events. When she arrived at the community center, everything was already set up. On the edges of the room were comfy chairs, throw pillows, and weighted blankets. The food table was filled with warm drinks and sweet treats and the punch bowl was already boozed up with mulled wine.

The music and the dance floor were still rocking though, because dancing was therapeutic!

bigdamnprincipal

This year's prom theme was "A Museum Night" - the Community Center's walls were covered in replicas of beautiful paintings along with some originals that matched the general flower theme. The paintings were safe, but the frames had some glitter on them, because of course they did.

There was a variety of ~~moddable~~ food and drinks which currently seemed untainted, and the dance floor was open for a fabulous time!

bigdamnprincipal

The weather had held out well for the homecoming dance, and the community center was decorated in an autumn theme with strings of glittered leaves and earth-toned lights. If you wanted to get down to some quasi-recent music or just relax from looting adventures, the evening was yours!

bigdamnprincipal

This year's prom had an elegant black and white theme, and the Community Center was decked out with tasteful decorations that had all been covered in black and silver glitter. It was still fancy by at least some measures!

The food and punch were untainted (and unglittered) for the moment, and the dance floor was open for a fabulous time!

bigdamnprincipal

Homecoming in November meant the community center was decked out in harvest-themed decorations for this evening's festivities. There were pumpkins that had somehow survived un-carved after Halloween, baskets of glittery vegetables (not for eating, please), decorative hay bales, and... a disco ball?

It's a dance, some things get dug out of the decoration closet no matter what the theme might be.

The food table was full and the drinks were un-spiked for the moment, so it was time for everyone to get their dance on!

bigdamnprincipal

In response to how uncomfortable this week had been, the theme of this year's prom was a Winter Wonderland. The Community Center was decked out with shiny fake snowflakes, plastic fuzzy snow creatures, and plenty of glitter snow. Cold decorations might not actually chill out anyone's hormones, but it was worth a shot.

The food and punch were as normal as anything could be with all the pollen still floating around, and hopefully everyone would be on their best behavior. If not, you might have some children to explain your actions to in the morning.

It was Valentine's Day weekend, and that meant love was in the air - only metaphorically, thank goodness. The community center had been decorated in the gaudiest of decorations - construction paper hearts, streamers, balloons in various shades of pink, red, and white, and of course, as much of the glitter supplies as possible.

Do you know how hard it is to glitter balloons? Hopefully someone would appreciate these creative efforts.

The food tables were filled with a variety of savory goods and plenty of chocolate. There was also regular punch and hot cocoa, neither of which had been tainted ~~yet~~.

It was time for some fun with those you love, or at least fondly tolerate!

bigdamnprincipal

Considering the theme of the dance, it might have been a surprise to walk into the community center and find it looking relatively classy, but a ball was a ball, even if it was a ball for "monsters." There were candleabras and dark gauzey fabrics everywhere, trying to put off an "elegant evening in a castle" vibe. Even the glitter was understated!

There were extra masquerade masks in case anyone needed one, or wanted to switch things up during the night, and bags of candy for anyone who wanted to stop by, even if it was just to sneak a peek. Or get candy in general, there's no judgement here.

bigdamnprincipal

In the Student Council's defense, having "spring" be the base of the prom theme came up before there was pollen ravaging the air. Were they fully leaning into it now? Of course--welcome to your pastel-colored, glitter-covered steampunk-in-spring prom!

The Community Center had been decorated with all things steampunk - gears, wires, random shiny bits with glass in them - intertwined with flowers and vines and all covered with shiny pastel paint. (The non-shiny paint was buried too far back of the supply closet and really, was it even worth searching for?)

The food and punch were as normal as anything could be with all the pollen floating around, so hopefully you were just here to dance--tastefully, please.

Don't even ask how or why the school auditorium had been transformed into a fairly stylized interpretation of a nineteenth century ballroom. Where had that sweeping staircase come from? Why was everything suddenly pink marble? How were there suddenly NPC footmen everywhere?

Seriously. Don't ask.

In any case, there was a ball, at the castle, where all would be invited to come from near and far to dance with one another in amazing displays of color and mid-century animation techniques.

Maybe there would even be a prince! (Honestly, there would probably be at least three or four princes.) It was sure to be a night of romance - although, not too much romance, since this was all still firmly G-rated.

Pajama Prom was, clearly, the best prom theme!

And, if not, it was at least one that was both incredibly playing with the island's sheer devotion and undying love for blanket forts and pillows and stuffed toys just made for cuddling!

Really, aside from the glitter and the food, student council had barely had to do any set up! The island had been deeply obliging for what the signs that were positively drenched in glitter declared was:

WELCOME TO PAJAMA PROM 2020

Hope your pajamas are safe for everyone to look at because if you're wearing anything else, well, you're dreadfully overdressed!

Unlike most Fandom events that the alumni remember, this one was not a glitter-drenched nightmare, though it was a little dinosaur-themed, if "tasteful" and "dinosaur-themed" could be in the same room togther.

Think more giant palms, less Tino in a loincloth. There were drinks and snacks, music and nametags. Come on in, Fandomites! Tell us what you've been up to.

This year, Student Council had gone for the most empowering theme they could come up with. Be strong! Be glamorous! Be a Glamazon!

And they would have gotten away with it too, if not for that pesky pollen making for some last-minute revisions to the decorating. The glitter was a staple, the glitter was fine, and so there was plenty of that to go around. But the Greek statues that had been set up tastefully around the Community Center had all in one fell swoop started to seem decidedly less tasteful, and so in a fit of panic, Student Council had dressed each and every one of them up...

... in lingerie.

At least it was glittery lingerie? Though the end result did seem a little less Ancient Greece and a little more Rocky Horror than had previously been intended.

Glamazons, guys!

Sure, the extreme winter weather had come and gone, but it had clearly still been on the minds of those in Student Council when they'd planned tonight's dance, as the theme went in the complete opposite direction.

Welcome, Fandom, to a tropical paradise!

There were palm trees, of course... as well as giant tissue-paper flowers hanging from the ceiling and brightly colored cutouts of frogs and parrots decorating the walls. Possibly with a good deal more glitter than one would usually associate with such a theme, but this was Fandom.

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.

It was possible that the strange creatures that had invaded Fandom last week were still on everyone's mind when the Student Council had designed the decorations for Prom. Glittery cardboard animal-hybrid monsters awaited everyone as they arrived to the community center, and made their way inside along a blue and yellow carpet flanked by glowing, glittery red eyes.

Nothing in the decorations looked like a rabbit though. Some memories were just too much to make fun of.

Welcome to Prom, folks!

If you were at all familiar with Fandom High dances, you were probably well aware that the level of glitter was generally high, to say the least. Even by those standards, this year's Homecoming Dance was overdoing it.

Welcome... to the Post-Glitterocalypse. A smoke machine was working overtime with some red-tinted lighting and, of course, a metric ton of glitter to create an atmosphere that was simultaneously imposing and very sparkly. Radioactive hazard symbols were scattered throughout the hall and the sparkly wreckage of a rickshaw was over near the food table. The dance floor was surrounded by LED fire lights. And near the entry, a glittery statue of a one-armed warrior woman stood watch over the dance. Just watching, though. Because it was a statue. It's not like inanimate objects would move.

Unlike that pile of glitter near the restrooms that seemed to be shifting a bit....

[OOC: You know what we've never had at a dance? An invasion. A "radioactive" Post-Glitterocalypse seems like a good time to change that, though. There's a thread in here where you can fight actual monsters made of glitter. They're limited in range a bit, so you can ignore them and go about your dance if you want to. But if you want to mod a glittery radroach getting on the dance floor with you, I'm not going to stop you.

The bulky booze reserves Tamsin had reeled in during their last stop had no real end in sight. So great was their wealth that this time around, they'd actually just put wine and beer barrels out to function as tables across the community center.

The decorations were nice, though. Just a dusting of gold and blue glitter, nice tablecloths, and a wide selection of food. That was all you needed, right?

Were you ready for a night of romance, Fandom? A night of sparkly, sparkly romance with long ships, gleaming muscles, and long flowing hair? A night of Viking Romance?

Because even if you weren't, that's what you were getting, because this is what happened when you let Isabela suggest decorating themes.

A river of blue glitter (complete with longship) led to the doorway as Ride of the Valkyries boomed from the speakers. Welcome to Prom 2016, kids.

It was the Valentine's Dance and while, unlike some previous years, pollen wasn't in the air (yet), glitter certainly was. Gallon and gallons of it.

Or rather, due to the presence s of certain people on the decorating team, galleons and galleons of it. Yes, majestic sailing ships (with very...memorable figureheads) of various sizes stood proudly around the hall, all of them filled to brim with glitter.

Best of all, thanks to your kind and considerate student council, all this year's glitter was the edible kind. You're welcome.

This year's Homecoming had an autumn forest theme, and as such it was more natural than certain dances in years past. The tables bore pumpkin centerpieces, and bales of hay occupied the corners. Garlands of autumn leaves had been twined around everything that would hold a garland, and some of the waiters were dressed as forest creatures. (A few of the others were dressed like 'Pumpkin Spice,' which translated to short orange dresses, big hair, and a habit of answering questions with 'zig-a-zig-ah.' It was better not to talk to them.)

There was still plenty of glitter despite the theme. It had a way of creeping in around the edges.

Originally, this was going to be a much smaller event, but then Fandom had to be Fandom and Portalocity had to be Portalocity, and now Zoe was wondering if there would be enough food for everyone or if she'd have to get things from the local restaurants.

For the moment though, everything was set up nicely. There were tables and chairs set up with blue and gold tablecloths, each covered with glitter from years of use. There were balloons, streamers, and other slightly tasteful decorations, also covered in glitter from years of being stored with things that were also covered in glitter. Don't worry, no one had died from a glitter overdose yet.

Once the food was set out and the (non-tainted) punch was ready, it seemed like things were as good to go as they'd ever be. If things got too crowded, hopefully a fire marshal wasn't among the folks who had come back to town.

Much like the last time this event had taken place, it would appear to anyone who came to the community center tonight that whoever had been responsible for decorating for the reunion mixer actually had some taste. The decorations were simple - blue linen on the tables with gold flowers as centerpieces, and a notable lack of any tacky accoutrements - but there was, of course, gold and blue glitter scattered just about everywhere.

Don't tell us you hadn't missed it, old Fandomites.

Hopefully, Fandom's student body knew better by now than to expect to come into a room decorated normally for Prom, with streamers and flowers and maybe a balloon drop or something for the end of the evening. There were streamers, of course, just as there was the usual surplus of glitter, though most of it had gone up on the walls tonight in cave painting styled artwork featuring alots, teal deer, and gremlins. There were cardboard cutouts around the room featuring the GEICO Cavemen with various articles of historic play costumes draped over them. This one over here? Shakespearean ruffles. That one over there, an ancient Egyptian headpiece and collar. Over in his corner of the room, one of the cavemen was sporting a toga and a laurel wreath. And the entire room was filled with bubbles. Because glitter all over the walls wasn't nearly enough, right?

Cavemen Through The Ages, Fandom High. That was your Prom theme for 2015. So enjoy the food and the music, and celebrate. You've made it this far!

It was Valentine's Day, and love was in the air! Or pollen. Love pollen? Something like that, anyway. It wasn't like the holiday cared any, after all. Not when there was a dance to be had. And this year's dance had just the thing to take everybody's mind off of that pesky pollen!

That's right, dancing. Which, to the uninitiated, might seem a bit redundant for a dance, but Town Hall wasn't having any of that. The whole place was decorated to look like a dance club, complete with funky blue mood lighting and laser lights. Glowsticks were optional, glitter was everywhere and might or might not be an excellent excuse for boykissy, and the music tracks tonight seemed to be a selection of Marvin Gaye and Barry White music... Along with a selection of songs from Lords of Acid.

One did not question the dance. The dance knew what music the students needed today.

Upon entering the Town Hall tonight, dance attendees might notice a very definite theme tonight! A very definite, very sparkly theme tonight, with enough glitter strewn around the place that there were, in fact, glitterdrifts piling up around the edges of the dance floor. Everything was glittery, or sequiny, or rhinestoney, with a sort of sci-fi punk sensibility about it. Ish.

You'd be surprised how difficult it was to find 'Glitterpunk' as a genre on google for reference.

StuCo had taken inspiration for tonight's decorations from the Sixties and Seventies, or at least the pop cultural osmosis version thereof. Peace symbols and floral designs in various shades of fluorescent glitter paint covered the most walls, with paisley patterned drapes and wall hangings over what was left. Giant lava lamps with flecks of glitter suspended in the liquid cast ever-shifting patterns of light over the proceedings, and stacks of flower crowns waited by the doors for people to don as they entered.

Prom 2014 was like, totally groovy, man.

StuCo had pulled out all the stops decorating, reproductions of classical paintings and sculpture filling the town hall. It was only after they'd finished setting up that anyone had realised certain...flaws in this approach, but a little ingenuity and a lot of glitter later, no one would ever be able to tell they'd had some last minute redecorating to do.

Within the hall lay food, drink, a dance-floor and sundry dark corners, and above the doorway glitter spangled banner flanked right and left by statues:

Welcome to Homecoming 2013
A Classical Evening

rilla-myrilla.livejournal.com

The party was well underway now!

The punch was completely spiked, the glitter was even more prevalent than it had been earlier in the evening, and the music had played "Baby Got Back" at least twice. Most of the strawberries were gone and the chaperones might have become less vigilant in their attempts to patrol the dark corners of the room.

And it's time to announce the prom court! Don't leave just yet on your ill-advised hook-ups!

The collective wisdom of the Student Council this week pretty much boiled down to "body glitter is AMAZING", and that somehow translated to a space theme for prom. The ceiling was covered in twinkling lights, and there were glitter-drenched foam planets, moons and asteroids hanging in corners and above the dance floor and buffet.

There was glitter everywhere, of course, because "excellent focus" wasn't really a hallmark of anyone this week and vials of the stuff kept getting knocked over. There was also containers of body glitter on the tables for those who might not be sparkly enough yet and some slightly questionable artwork of scantily clad aliens with gravity-defying body parts to take pictures next to because teenagers under the effects of sex pollen made the best decorating choices.

The food trended toward the chocolate-covered and supposedly aphrodisiac (with plenty of edible glitter added in, of course) and the punch was unspiked for the moment.

The lights were down low, there were plenty of dark corners, the music was a little Marvin Gaye-heavy and the chaperones, frankly, had their work cut out for them tonight.

If there was one thing a Fandom Dance could be guaranteed to have, it was glitter. Thus the abundance of glitter coating the hall decorations should have come as no surprise to the arriving guests, that a large number of said decorations were pterodactyl-shaped may have.

But the theme was 'Love is in the Air', and if you did not agree that the mighty the pterodactyl was the most romantic of flying creatures, then maybe the winged cow was for you. Or perhaps the helicopter.

In any case, there were open doors, and unspiked punch, and the 2013 Valentine's Day dance was ready to welcome you all.

Glitter seemed to be a theme of the evening. There was glitter on the posters covering the walls, glitter on the plants printed on table cloths. Glitter on the fake full moon hanging in place of a mirror ball.

Notices had gone out to all and sundry, inviting both those who still lived on the island as well as those who'd moved away to come back for a dance at the Fandom Town community center, in celebration of the 43rd (give or take a day) anniversary of the original moon landing, as well as the wonderful summer they were having.

Once people arrived, they'd find the community center's auditorium decorated according to the theme of the evening. Silver streamers hung all around, and a few papier mache moons had been fixed to the ceiling. The lights were dimmed, and there were flowers – most white, but some of them colored silver – on all the tables, bringing the faint scent of summer with them.

And naturally, there were big tables full of food, like at any large Fandom gathering. There was also a bar, though those underage would have to content themselves with sodas and virgin drinks. Maybe they could get over their sorrow over that on the dance floor, showing off their best Moonwalk.

Everything was ready for the people of Fandom to have a good time.

There was no bouncer at the entrance to the Community Center, all the better for any underclassmen to sneak into the night's festivities and pray that their own official final dance in Fandom would be half so...red. To be technical, the shade was rust.

Thankfully to the more practical among the StuCo Prom Committee, the Mars theme lended itself to plenty of starry twinkle lights and a decadant foggy mist rising from the dance floor that might just help the chaperones in their quest to look the other way when students got too handsy. That was really all that mattered at an event like this. Well, other than the food on hand and the ability for the punch to merge well with whatever spirits were 'accidentally' dropped into over the course of the evening.

For this was a night to be remembered! Even if all that stuck in the memories of the students was the terrifying spacemen floating around the giant papier mache Mars that dangled in place of a disco ball over the dance floor. Or perhaps it would be the fantastic flavor of the fiery fountain of cherry pie filling. Fake fire, of course, but the filling? Totally real and delicious. Even if it looked a little too much like fiery blood for some people.

The town hall had been transformed into a ballroom fit for a queen (and/or king. Or multiples thereof). The ceiling was resplendent in ribbons of royal purple, gold and white, and castle murals adorned the walls.

As they entered, tonight's guests were offered their choice of crown or tiara. Over by the photographer ~~who doesn't have a thread because that's what happens when you post at 6:30 in the morning~~, there was a pair of thrones set up to really complete the theme.

And- of course there was glitter. Really, people, did you even need to ask?

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.

The community center had been decorated both prettily and tastefully for tonight's alumni mixer, even if the music left a little to be desired. After all, sure, it was nice to have some good dancey music in there, but what was a mixer without some Bieber thrown in there? And the more Bieber the better, right? So those attending could look forward to one of those classics thrown in there every now and then. And possibly look forward to getting those classics stuck in their heads, whatever.

Look, at least the food was good, okay?

The community center was decorated with the requisite streamers and glittery things to make it look like a disco threw up all over the 50's. But it was hardly a dance without unfortunate glitter, right? Right!

Some of the balloons had deflated, and the streamers were hanging a little lower, but prom was still going strong. The punch might not have been safe anymore, but the dance floor was, and with the prom court announcements coming, there was plenty of time left to have some fun.

The community center had been decked out once again, this time to welcome Fandom's students to their prom. The Student Council had picked a black and white theme, and that had ended up translating to classic Hollywood in the decorations. There were black and white balloons and streamers hanging up, blown up pictures from old black and white movies decorating the walls, and each table had a vase of lillies, to give the place a little extra springtime feel.

Tiny white lights had been hung up all around the dance floor to give people a bright place to get their groove on, and the only thing that didn't match the theme was the food and drink table, which was covered with all kinds of ~~moddable~~ treats. With everything set up, the doors were opened, and the evening was ready to begin.

If anyone could recall the dance from the night before, they would have thought that it was decorated tastefully compared to what was going on tonight. There were streamers, balloons and what appeared to be paper flower ornaments everywhere. All done in yellow and blue for the proud graduates of Fandom High, of course.

And there were the 'classic' songs from twenty years ago blaring loudly for people to dance or cringe to. Who knew Ke$ha and Justin Bieber would get to be classic pop music for future generations?

Just be glad there is an open bar.

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!

It was definitely hotter than it had been from the start and some of the streamers were starting to come loose, making the ‘sky’ look a little on the sorry side of things. Some of the flowers were gone—tucked into hairstyles, on the floor and being trod on, and in-roads had been made on the food.

But the dance was still on-going.

And the punch? Was definitely spiked by now.
