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!

Love was in the air! Well, not really. That was later. But metaphorically, love, air, etc!

Caritas was decked out for Valentine's Day, with bunches of heart-shaped balloons in strategic places, copious amounts of pink and red confetti at the tables (a conversation starter!) and heart-shaped string lights above the bar and stage. And don't forget the glittery pink banner:

TONIGHT!
THREE MINUTE DATES
IT'S LITERALLY ONLY FIFTEEN MINUTES OF YOUR LIFE

A few minutes before 8:00, Kitty took the stage. She was probably covered in glitter now. "Hello, everybody, and welcome to Three Minute Dates! If you've never done this before, the rules are simple. At 8:00 on the dot, we'll call your name along with one other person's. You'll get to know each other as well as you can in three minutes, and then the gong will sound and you'll get another name to meet. You'll do that for five rounds, and then if there's anyone you want to talk to more, you can meet up at the bar. Good luck, everybody!"

It was probably a good thing that most of the carnival was set up on Friday night, so when people woke up as kids, everything else adjusted too. The weather was perfect for playing outside - not that a little rain would stop anyone - and it was time to have fun!

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!

throughaphase

It was that time of year again! New people were here! New people to date, get to know, or perhaps make a mortal enemy of!

You never know.

Signs were hung up in front of the bar, both obviously, and easy to miss for anyone who might wander in and get signed up without their knowledge. Above the bar was a banner (in glitter):

TONIGHT!
THREE MINUTE DATES!
GOOD LUCK WBRURBODY

Your hostess wasn't gonna question it. And a few minutes before 8:00, she took the stage.

"Hello, everyone! And welcome to Three Minute Dates!" Kitty greeted them. "If you're new to this, the rules are simple. We call your name along with one other person. You talk to this person, get to know their likes, their loves, their dreams. After three minutes, a buzzer will sound-" Pause for the sound. "-and you'll hear your name paired with a different person. Et cetera. If there is anyone you'd like to talk to more, the bar will be open afterwards for drinks and conversation. Remember that any violence will get you transported into the pond, but also please don't attempt violence in order to flee, that is rude to the rest of your dates. Now I'm going to get off the stage. Have fun, and good luck..."

She trailed off, not going to attempt to pronounce the word on that sign.

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.

If there was anything different at the Perk today, Alexis hadn't noticed. And if the baristas had noticed, they weren't telling.

Alexis was however on her second grande skinny latte of the day, though, scrolling through Instagram and figuring she was still kind of tired thanks to a bad night's sleep.

[Open!]

Come one, come all! It was time for ~~everyone's~~ some people's favorite event, maybe!

TONIGHT!
THREE MINUTE DATES!!!

The bar was open before the dates, and maybe you hung out. Maybe you mingled. Maybe you signed up. Maybe you'd be surprised when Tino or someone else signed you up against your will! But regardless, a few minutes before 8 pm, Kitty hopped onto the stage, which was bedecked in a red sparkly curtain that someone had probably gotten on Amazon for $6!

"Hello, everyone! And welcome to this installment of Three Minute Dates!" Kitty greeted them. "If you're new to this, the rules are simple. We call your name along with one other person. You get three minutes to get to know that person. After three minutes, a buzzer will sound-" Pause for the sound. "-and you'll hear your name paired with a different person. If there is anyone you'd like to talk to more, the bar will be open afterwards for drinks and conversation. Remember that any violence will get you transported into the pond, but also please don't attempt violence in order to flee, that is rude to the rest of your dates. Now I'm going to get off the stage. Everyone have fun tonight!"

Or like, at least attempt it.

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!

It was almost time for Fandom's guests to leave. To honour them one last time, the Mayor's office had arranged for a wonderful spread of food, set up along Apocalypse Ave on the way to the causeway. Opposite these tables were a few more with a, ah, tasteful number of Fandom tourist merchandise, for the shot glass-and-calendar-loving connoisseurs among their visitors.

And at the very far end stood a single table, holding nothing but a large collection of water balloons and water pistols. It came with no instructions.

Some of them looked like there was paint in them.

[[ ocd up! open! ]]

The ducks and flamingos were very surprised at the sudden appearance of two men in the pond. One of those men was probably also quite surprised to find himself in a pond and not standing in a bar needling the other just for fun.

Stark, on the other hand, was aware this was going to happen and was going to take advantage of the element of surprise while he could. He knew this was almost certainly not going to end well but that hadn't stopped him.

He wouldn't really drown Spike but he could try and hold him under the water, just for a moment. Maybe that would get him to shut up.

[some are expected but feel free to come gawk at the dudes in the pond if you like!]

Jaye didn't have anyone here for Parents Weekend, which was a plus for her. It also meant that she could go to work and just hope people brought their own dysfunction in for her to watch.

And Tino had a guest! He was smaller and somehow shadier-looking and it was unclear if it was a relative or a friend or something else, and they were both kind of standing around and not speaking, which was going to leave Jaye with so many questions.

It was a nice fall Friday afternoon, and the park was all ready for people to gather to meet their loved ones, as even the extremely glittery banner hanging over the entrance to the park evidenced:

Welcome to Parents' Weekend 2021!
There was a lot of glitter. Not just on the banner, but... generally everywhere. Sorry, the school administration had ordered a surplus of it, and it clearly all needed to go somewhere, and since it was all in very autumnal shades of orange and red and gold, well, this was just the occasion.

Welcome, family and friends and whoever else the townspeople and/or the school happened to invite! Try not to inhale too much glitter.

[All PW guest applications have been accepted! OCD up, go forth and play!]

The park around the pond had been strung up with lights. There was a dance floor with a live zombie band, tables of food, and a spot with a sensible Honda Accord decked out with one of those giant bows you see on car ads around the holidays.

The party was pretty great all on its own, but if you happened to be under the delusion that it was Your Super Sweet 16, well, there was everything available for you to see something slightly different.

And a pond to get into a slap fight about whose party was better.

Just sayin'.

Everyone's welcome!

It was a good day for a party! Nothing weird was happening, most people were probably between traumas, and why not celebrate with free booze.

Sure, Chaos Drink advertisements were up all over the interior of Caritas, but they were literally paying to host an event where everyone could drink a ridiculously delicious alcohol for free, so it was worth it, right? And surely this deal wasn't too good to be true or anything.

INTRODUCING CHAOS DRINK
DRINK IT FOR FREE! YES, REALLY!

There. That should do it.

[You can still sign up for the event all day today! I won't be sending out emails after Tuesday though so get those signups in now!]

Congratulations! You made it through the night and of of 6:40 am you could leave the warehouse. With your pajamas, of course, because while your clothes from last night would be at home you definitely had to do a walk of not-shame in your terrible/awesome pajamas.

But upon waking up you'd find last night's slumber party food had been replaced with breakfast foods and coffee, and you were welcome to get a good meal before leaving!

[No OCD! For anyone who wants to play out a wakeup or breakfast.]

fates_jaye

Did you have plans for tonight? Well that was a great thought but it was not actually in the cards for tonight for some of you. That would be because at 8 pm, people on island were magically transported to one particular warehouse, where they would find themselves dressed for a slumber party.

Because you were trapped at a (at least mostly) gendered overnight lock-in warehouse slumber party.

So have fun with that! (Seriously.)

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.

When one woke up feeling incredibly Zen, one should ~~monetize the hell out of that~~ share that experience with the world! So here was Tahani, is this remote...ish...locale on the top of some unforgiving...kind of terrain.

It was basically Tibet, honestly, which was why Tahani was on her yoga mat under a billow, whispy, generally useless tent structure, explaining Buddhism to the Dalai Lama.
