RP: New arrival
Characters: Cinead MacFusty + OPEN
Date: 01.24.2006
Setting: The main bar
Summary: Cinead arrives at paradise
Warnings: TBD

Cinead had moved into the 3rd bedroom at Villa Acacia and then gone to the bar for a scotch on the rocks - not exactly an island drink, but he liked what he liked. His bare arms were built and had a few cross-hair scars running up them like flames - caused by flames, naturally, due to his work with the dragons in Scotland.

Xavier gave him his drink with a welcome and the tall blond man - he was 6'4" after all - accepted with with a nod of thanks and a dazzling smile. Cinead's mother, while she'd always been thrilled he'd gone into the family business, had more than once commented that he could have gone into modeling for Witch Weekly or something. And she wasn't wrong. He knew he was good looking and used it to his advantage when it came to the witches, but he loved his work and loved being outside and all the rough and tumble work that came with dragon wrangling. There was something old world about it, and Cinead may be a little bit vain and a little bit charming, but he was also a big fan of old fashioned behaviors and lifestyles.

He looked around him and took a seat at one of the large shared tables, sure the others would be around once they learned the new arrival had settled in. Wanting to check out to competition, right?

Blaise and OPEN

As expected when a new arrival showed Blaise made his way to the bar even though he didn't particularly want to be there. He hadn't known what to expect through this thing. He had never been one to focus on one female at a time and he felt certain the premise of this whole ordeal was to get to know a variety of people. Seriously, the insanely quick hookups by people who had known each other for years was an insult to the premise of the game in his opinion.

Hell, he'd had several opportunities to quickly move in in the real world and it had never resulted in anything more than a quick roll between the sheets. The one's he thought he might call upon again often didn't want anything more than the physical. Then there were the one's that tried to get super clingy way too quickly. He wanted something that grew gradually over time. Something worth his time and energy and thus far that hadn't presented itself here either.

He didn't know what had made him choose Lavender. It had to have been the proximity of their conversation to the ceremony. Why the hell had Lee called on him first? Anyone with half a brain could easily tell he hadn't made a love connection. At least he hadn't thought so until the ceremony came to a close a McCormack was left standing without a rose. It was then that he knew he'd fucked things up big time.

That was why he sat here now two drinks in not caring how drunk he got this evening or even if McLaggen acted on the looks he'd been throwing Blaise's way at the choosing.

Bill roamed around rather restlessly. It was no one's fault; tonight was the full moon, and he couldn't help it. He wasn't a werewolf by far, but it had affected him enough to give him more of a temper and to feel the pull of the moon. He knew he'd meet up with Melinda later, or hoped, at least, and he didn't want her to be affected by any of his moodiness.

He finally headed to the bar to order a drink in hopes of relaxing. He noticed Blaise, and he couldn't help but grin a bit. "Hey, mate," he said congenially. "Wanted to tell you good job on stirring the drama pot. I had the urge to do that last time when I saw the glares he was throwing around." So, yes, the twins weren't the only Weasleys who liked to cause trouble on occasion.

"If McLaggen is so insecure that he's got to get defensive and upset about someone else showing the slightest interest in a lady that I made sure to acknowledge as his then Lavender has a hard road ahead of her." Blaise knew that to be true because he had a jealous streak. The one time he'd tried to have a relationship he had ruined it by his own actions. It was yet just another reason he'd shied away from looking for anything real.

Blaise shook his head and threw back the rest of his drink and debated whether he should flag down for another.

	Bill himself had the occasional issue with possessiveness, but he also didn't get quite so aggressive unless someone was aggressive in return. Or it was the full moon. "I have to agree. I nearly chose her the other week just to stir the pot myself." It was that latent mischievousness in him that made him want to do it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"I wasn't trying to stir the pot," Blaise knew that Slytherins had the reputation for causing trouble but he really hadn't meant to. "We had a moment of connection and I didn't feel at the time as if I had much of a connection with any of the others."

The statement was true when he made the choice, but the pang he'd felt when Meg hadn't been chosen by anyone spoke volumes. By then though, it was too late. Hell, even if there had been even the faintest possibility she'd probably expelled any thought of him from her mind as soon as she'd left the set.

Lavender and OPEN

Lavender had already decided she had good reason to be grouchy after the last ceremony, but then she'd looked at the calendar and all had become clear. It was easy enough to lose track of the day of the week, but she'd also managed to forget the date until she realised that it was a full moon. It had a tendency to make her a little more sensitive about everything from emotions to physical sensations, but of course she had to hide it as much as possible otherwise it had a tendency to be blamed on other aspects of her biology.

She spent longer than usual getting ready, pampering herself a little and wondering if she might be able to request a massage. Perhaps tomorrow. Or perhaps tonight if Cormac was feeling amenable.

First though, she needed a drink. Something very fruity to hide just how potent it was sounded ideal. And it would be even better if it had an umbrella too.
