UNSANCTIONED CAMPING

This is almost certainly a bad idea, but when faced with the arrival of family members the next day, who doesn't need to relieve a little stress? After curfew, some students slip out to the wooded area between Azurcrest and the sorting cave. There's a scattering of tents, and in the middle a campfire blazes.

The mood isn't as wild as a Grotto party, and most of the entertainment is found in sitting, talking, and drinking. Alcohol is available in reasonable amounts, enough for everyone to have a drink or two (or three if you really need it).

» Around the fire: The forest doesn't have the same warming effect as the Grotto, but it feels very... normal? Just woods and trees and the hoot of an owl. Are you relieved, or do you feel lonely?

» BERTIE BOTT'S EVERY FLAVOUR BEANS: Someone got their hands on a family sized bag of these imported sweets. At first, it's just taken to be candy, but as the truth about these jelly beans is fully understood, it becomes a spectacle.

There's a group of students sitting in a circle, passing the bag around. The idea is that you take one, and then everyone waits in anticipation for your reaction. (Let's be real, they're all hoping you get earwax or cigarette ash.) You must then guess what it is before passing the bag to the left.

In game terms, this means reply to the root comment, and we will use RNG to pick out a flavor for you. You can then write your character's reaction and attempt to identify what they just put in their mouth.

Official results for your random flavor could come from Diego (morale), Sy (stokers), or the mod journal (goosemods).

» The Tents: The magically warmed tents make another appearance. They're filled with pillows and blankets and should be pleasant to sleep in.

» The Morning: In the early hours of the morning, students (hopefully) begin to sneak back to their campgrounds, and (maybe) avoid the eyes of vigilant prefects.

» Did you get in trouble?: If you did, reply here. The punishment will be two nights of detention starting Monday, and a loss of 10 house points per student. Visiting parents will also find out about the indiscretion.

» OOC: Questions, comments & concerns.

Diego's in the throes of one of his self-destructive immediate gratification moods, which means he's especially fun. He's very interested in everyone, wants to talk talk talk, and he's more flirtatious than he's been in months. Ravi's still in the back of his mind, but if he gets drunk and hooks up with someone, that'll definitely distract him from his heartbreak, right???

After all the warnings to be careful, Diego's making attempts to keep track of who's here. He can periodically be seen scribbling names in a journal. He's already afraid he's missed people, and some time he could be having fun is wasted anxiously rechecking his list when he sees someone and doesn't trust that he's already written them down.

Addy FH, camp patrol?

Addy actually was considering NOT attending this. But after talking to Diego the other day, she's still worried about him. And figures few to zero prefects will be here so she should show and play at being Responsible so that other people can relax. So she's here! Addy doesn't drink much tonight but is still very talky and social/warm at pretty much everyone. So much talking! She is also fascinated by these beans!

She tries to keep the area clean as the night goes on and if she sees anyone who is obviously too drunk or doing something reckless or wandering into the woods alone,she will very gently tell them to cease and desist. She will share a tent with whoever lets her platonically cuddle all night? But she will leave suuuper early the next morning so as not to get caught. She can't get in trouble for actually trying to be good right? (We will see I have not yet decided.)

Sy needs a fuckin' break, which means as soon as he's able to do it without getting caught, he's sneaking out of Reid's window, with Reid and a half-full bottle of whiskey in tow. And his flask, which he's keeping to himself after throwing the bottle into Morales' party stash. Sy hasn't gotten properly drunk in over a week, and that's his one goal tonight.

He's been a tense and cranky storm cloud lately, even during Quidditch practices. Especially during Quidditch practices. Tonight, he seems a little more like himself, and will be chatting with people and hanging out and not trying to fight anyone since he needs to get to tomorrow without any bruises. (Reid, help him out here.) This is Sy being downright friendly tonight. What could go wrong? Nothing could go wrong! He just wants a break.

[Open to multiple! Grab him before his sister does ):]
