RP: Choosing Ceremony
Characters: Everybody
Date: January 16, 2006
Setting: The pavilion at Villa Lotus
Summary: 2nd Choosing Ceremony
Warnings: TBD


It was odd. All rooms looked different in the nighttime from what they did during daylight. That wasn’t odd. What was odd was how different the pavilion looked from this side as opposed to the other side where Alicia had been sitting a week ago. She was still sitting, she was still dressed to the nines, still looking across to seven incredibly handsome wizards, Lee was still there, and there was still a stand with roses between them. The only difference, really, was that now she was one of the people who got to choose. No, not got to; had to.

Before she could muse any further than that, Lee looked up from his notes and in an instant he was The Host, Lee Jordan, and he was intonating his words – just so – while looking at the camera – just so – as he welcomed them all yet again.

“A week ago, after each wizard had chosen one witch that they would like to get to know better, we said goodbye to Ginny. Tonight, Finbar will be part of the choosing ceremony after spending a week, along with the rest of the group, getting to know each other. So with no further ado; Ladies, please give a rose to the wizard you would like to get to know better. Lavender, if you would get us started.”

Lavender + Cormac

Last week's ceremony had been nerve-wracking, but this week was stranger. Instead of sitting there, hoping that someone would choose her, Lavender now had to make the decision for herself. After going on another date this week with someone different, a couple of different paths theoretically lay before her. One path was safe, the other more reckless. Thinking about the options actually hadn't helped, in the end. Her head told one thing, but if she couldn't follow her instincts here in paradise, where could she?

When she stood to pick up the rose it was with a growing sense of confidence. She'd had a lovely date with a charming wizard, but her heart was telling her to go somewhere else, to the man who gave her butterflies. Lavender twirled the rose in her fingers, her gaze flicking to Bill before settling on her choice. "Cormac."

Cormac has gone into the week confident of his getting Lavender's rose at the choosing ceremony. But then that red headed weasel had asked her on a date and his confidence had turned to competition. She was the hottest witch on the island, and he'd been sure of their connection, but had no idea what had happened on the date.

When she looked to Bill with her rose in hand, he'd felt himself grow angry and disappointed all at once and then she'd looked to him and said his name and he crossed the room to her before she'd had the chance to come to him. "Yes," he said, before swooping down in front of everyone to kiss her soundly. Gryffindors had to make their mark, after all.

Lavender returned the kiss with enthusiasm, laughing softly when she broke away. The world felt a little better with him next to her and she wanted to explore that feeling as far as it went. As much as she had enjoyed her date in New York this week, the spark she was looking for was right here.

Figuring out the differences between Cormac and Mac the Wiz-TV personality was a challenge she found herself relishing. She would have all the time she needed, Lavender realised with a giddy smile. With a kiss like that to seal the choice, she doubted either of them were destined for dates with others while they were here.

She pinned the rose to his lapel. "Perfect."

Cormac straightened up as she pinned the rose to him and gave a smirk to the crowd, "Well I know I'm incredibly good at kissing you, but there's always room for improvement - nothing is perfect," he joked, leaning down to practice some more with another scorching kiss. He knew everyone was watching them and while the thought of pissing Lavender off scared him - she could easily take him in a fight, despite their size difference, he had no question - he loved that everyone was watching and had no doubt everyone was jealous.

One hand rested around the back of Cormac's neck as he kissed her again, largely so that she could keep herself balanced as he caught her off guard. Lavender's attempt to scowl was ruined by the smile that lit up her eyes; she felt like she was glowing from head to foot.

"You nearly swept me off my feet there," she teased, taking his hand and quite eager to continue their practice when there wasn't such a big audience. "Come on, we should let someone else choose."

Mac couldn't help the near-purr that came out of him when she took his hand. "You can lead me anywhere you like," he grinned down at her.

After being kissed so thoroughly by someone who she really liked, Lavender felt she could hardly be blamed if she looked a little smug. She smirked a little at Cormac. "I know I can," she whispered for his benefit.

Millicent felt somewhat like a nonentity lately, but part of it was her fault. She was quiet and something of a watcher by nature. It was at least a relief to be choosing rather than waiting on being chosen.

She looked over the array of men contemplatively and her gaze finally settled on Blaise, not because there were necessarily any romantic feelings there, but because she liked Blaise and would rather like to keep him around a while longer. "Blaise," she said.

Blaise wasn't the least bit surprised when Millicent chose him. Not because he believed her to desire him but because he'd not taken notice of her fondness toward any of the blokes. He also knew that it could take awhile to figure her out. Hell, it had taken him years to think of her as a woman and not just a schoolmate.

"I'm honored," Blaise stated stepping forward to not only take the rose but the hand that offered it which he raised to his lips for a light kiss.

Millicent gave him her hand and smiled warmly at him, grateful she had someone she knew here with her. She needed to up her game, she knew -- be more outgoing, which wasn't her, really, but she knew she could do it short term at least.

Meghan + Bill

Much to Meghan’s own surprise, she felt a twang of jealousy when she saw Blaise so easily picked by the Bulstrode girl. She had enjoyed their trip to Argentina, the easy way she felt with him, how she could just be and have fun, flirt and even be lewd without having to worry about him turning tails or expecting more than said fun. Sure, she had seen Blaise talk with Bulstrode while they’d been here, but she’d never gotten the impression that they were anything more than friends. The only conclusion she could draw from that, was that Bulstrode was getting in the competition and had issued the challenge to get the game going for real.

She cast a glance to the goodie-two-shoes baker, who was sending far-from-goodie-two-shoes eyes at Bill, and a confident smirk appeared on her lips. Picking up the rose, she took a step forward. “Bill,” she said, and held out her rose to him.

Bill had to say, he was quite surprised by being chosen by Meghan. He'd figured he wouldn't be Lavender's choice, though he'd had a good time on his date with her. But he rather expected to be chosen by Melinda, or hoped to, at least. Not that he minded so long as he stayed in the game. He sent Melinda a glance before stepping forward to accept the rose from Meghan. He smiled at her. "Why, thank you," he said.

”Well, any time, Bill!” Meghan grinned, spreading her arms in welcome before she moved over to pin the rose to Bill’s shirt. The man was hot, and he probably knew, however, Meghan was already well aware that Bill never would have chosen her if he had been the one to choose. Still, things needed to be shaken up, which was also why she leaned in and pressed a kiss – that was sure to leave a lipstick mark – to his cheek. “Cheer up,” she murmured to him, “I just upped your stock with the baker.”

He couldn't help but grin at the vivacious woman before him. He bussed her cheek, having no idea that she'd left lipstick on his cheek. "Ahh, I see. Sneaky woman, you," he said jovially, willing to be in on some fun especially if it got him the attention he liked best from the woman he liked already.

Try as she might, Alicia couldn’t figure out Adrian. A week ago, he’d picked her, and she had found herself looking forward to getting to know him, however, she still hadn’t a clue what he was all about. On the other hand, he hadn’t been hostile either or even giving off the vibe that he would rather be left alone. She just hadn’t figured him out. He was very much a conundrum that she wanted to find out, a very attractive conundrum.

“Adrian,” she said with a warm smile as she held her rose out to him.

Adrian was somewhat surprised Alicia had called his name. He'd chosen her the week before hoping to get to know her better, but then his own... gruffness... had gotten in the way of that. Adrian wasn't what one would call an "open book".

He stepped forward and gave her a small smile - of course on him, it looked more like a grimace - and reached out for the rose. "It would be my honor," he said, his voice breathy and low. Once he had the rose in hand, he leaned down a bit to kiss her on the cheek and whisper in her ear, "thank you," and he meant it.

Closing her eyes, Alicia reached up to touch Adrian’s cheek when he whispered in her ear. She breathed in deeply and let her cheek brush against hers when he pulled back. He smelled so good and his aftershave or soap or shampoo didn’t overpower it, rather it emphasized it.

She looked up at him, her smile brighter as she took his hand and let him lead them off to the side to join the other couples.

Looking across the pavilion to the line of men still left, Melinda knew that no matter who she chose, she would choose right. They were all good men, at least from what she knew about them so far, and she would be delighted to get to know each and every one of them better. Swallowing down the uncomfortable feeling in her stomach that had appeared when she had watched Bill go with Meghan, she sent a genuine and warm smile to the wizard she would be choosing.

Their date in New York had been great and she had truly enjoyed seeing a side of him that was so different from the otherwise slight aloofness that he presented here. “Stephen,” she said, discreetly smelling the fragrant rose before she offered it to him.

Stephen found himself mildly surprised by Melinda's offer of the rose. Despite enjoying their date earlier in the week, he was sure that Melinda had her eyes on someone else. Indeed, he was still sure of that, but McCormack had placed a claim on Weasley first. An interesting turn of events.

Still, this gave him another week and there would be another woman arriving in paradise soon.

"Thank you, Melinda." He kissed her politely on the cheek. Well, that would give Weasley something to think about for the next week.

With a smile, Melinda leaned a little into Stephen’s polite kiss. “My pleasure, Stephen,” she said as she began pinning the rose to his lapel. “I like your company.” Which was true. Maybe Stephen didn’t give her the same kind of burning butterflies in her stomach like Bill did, but she had genuinely enjoyed the time she had spent with Stephen and it wasn’t his time to leave yet.

Cho was the last called. She looked between Augustus - who she'd known for two weeks now to be a hardworking, thoughtful, earnest man - and Finbar - who was new, and seemed fun loving, and exactly what she figured she'd needed (not that she'd had the courage to speak to him all week.

She gave Augustus a friendly smile, grateful that he didn't seem the sort to hold a grudge (she hated when people did that, and had seen her unfair share of it) and then turned her gaze to Finbar, already feeling her cheeks warm up. She stepped forward, "I know we haven't had the chance to get to know each other, but I'd like the opportunity," her voice was the tiniest bit smaller than she'd like it, but she took a breath, looked him in the eye and said, "Finbar, will you accept my rose?"

Cho + Finbar
[info]_finbar_
2016-01-17 08:36 pm UTC (link)
Finbar had more or less prepared himself to go back to the villa he had spent a couple of nights in before he had joined the game. All week, he had tried to get a conversation going with his other villa-mate – Cho – but no matter what, he just couldn’t seem to get her to stay put for more than a passing glance or – if he was lucky – an actual smile. But, he’d gotten to hang out with Meghan, which was great fun, however, she had chosen to be a bitch about things and go between the eldest Weasley and Melinda – who had been sending each other serious fuck-me eyes all week – so now that it all came down to Cho, he figured that Auggie would the one to stay.

So when Cho asked him to accept her rose, he was baffled for a moment, before he turned to Auggie to shake his hand and give him a friendly pat on the shoulder. Then his full attention was on the beautiful witch who looked ready to hide. “It’d be my pleasure,” he said once he was standing in front of her, reaching up without thinking to brush a strand of hair behind her ear.

Her blush deepened when he touched her. She sighed and her head may have leaned just the slightest bit into his hand. Her voice still small she said, "I know I've been... skittish? This past week, and that's not very friendly behavior for a flatmate..." She figured she sounded like a polite idiot. "But," she took a deep breath, "The truth is you caught my eye right away and I didn't know what to do about that. I'm sorry if I seemed rude." She hoped that made up for it.

Finbar smiled warmly down into her beautiful eyes. “You were never rude,” he assured her, closing his fingers around hers as she held the rose. “I’m just relieved I didn’t scare you away and grateful that you’ll give me a second chance. Thank you, Cho.” Leaning down, he touched a gentle kiss to her cheekbone.
