Hurricane Party!
Who: Ginny and the other residents of the resort
What: Hurricane Party!
When: Day 10, around 7 PM.
Where: The White Sands Resort Bar and Club
Rating: PG? I don't know what crazy shenanigans are going to occur.
Status: In progress.

Ginny hated being stuck indoors.

She almost literally been trying to climb the walls in her frustration when she'd decided to throw a hurricane party. She hadn't met many of the residents, and figured if there was anyone else as irritated at being stuck inside then they'd appreciate the change of scenery. It'd also give people a chance to mingle and meet. She wondered if there were others from her world here besides Tonks.

The planet had been most accomodating to her ideas. The club was currently themed for a luau, and small lanterns shed a soft glow over numerous smaller groupings of tables as well as over the dance floor and bar. She hadn't been sure what the other residents might eat, so she'd asked for a large selection of snacks. The bar was well-stocked as well. She didn't recognize all of the things stocked, but she did notice a bottle of Firewhiskey and what appeared to be butterbeer.

Now all this party needed was people. Maybe she'd get to see Max again.

Giselle didn't think she would have heard of it, but it would have been amazing if she had. She would have been the only one. "New York is very exciting! I've never been somewhere so crowded and full of life." She gushed. She had really liked New York, all except for having her beautiful tiara stolen by that rotten old man.

"Bristol?" She could tell by the girl's accent that she was from England, but she hadn't heard of Bristol or Elgin. "Are those places in England?" She propped her head up on her hand as she listened to her talk about her friends. She nodded. "Yes, I would love to hear Robert or Morgan's voice again." She sighed wistfully and began to push the food around on the plates the way Cassie had done before.

"Making new friends is fun. The people here are really nice. At least the ones I've met are. Have you met anyone interesting yet?" She finished her Shirley Temple and the golem brought another one by, setting it front of her as he took her empty glass.

"Oh, wow, yeah. About the best I've got so far is Brighton. It was fun, but... I really want to see more of the world. I want to go to Japan and take pictures of all the lovely sushi," she explained, overly excited by the thought.

"Yeah, well, Bristol's in England, Elgin is in Scotland," she explained, running her index finger around the rim of her glass thoughtfully. "Is Robert your boyfriend?" she asked, with a sort of sad smile.

"Well, when I woke up here this girl sort of fell out of the sky. Bella, her name was. She comes from this place called Forks, isn't that a weird name for a place?!" she asked, giggling slightly at the memory. "And then I met a Welsh woman called Gwen in the games room..." she added, letting her eyes gaze over the room as she tried to pick either of them out. "I don't think they're here, though. Do you know anyone here?" she asked.

She finished her drink, and grinned widely as the golem replaced her drink as well. "Free bar, this is amazing. What are you drinking, anyway?" she asked.

"I played video games with a man from Japan today. Mamoru. I bet he could tell you all about sushi." She wasn't exactly sure what sushi was, but she was pretty sure Mamoru would know. "Do you like to take pictures?" Giselle tilted her red head, resting it on one of her upturned hands.

"Oh!" She giggled as she was explained the location of the places Cassie was speaking of. "Robert?" She laughed softly. "No, I was going to marry Prince Edward, but Robert was letting me stay in his apartment until Edward came for me." She smiled. She had been in the middle of changing her affections from Edward to Robert when she'd been sucked here.

"Forks? Why would someone name a place after an eating utensil?" She was quite stumped and it showed in her furrowed brow. But she shrugged and grinned. She looked around to see if she could spot anyone she knew after Cassie asked her. She hadn't even thought to look. "Let's see...Ayla, Legolas, Katara, Max and the Doctor." She pointed them out and then began to explain a little about each one. "Ayla is a medicine woman. I think she comes from a long time ago, when they lived in caves."

She nodded emphatically before moving on. "Legolas is a Prince in his land, some place called Middle Earth. He has a lovely singing voice!" She crowed softly, then moved on. "Katara is a beautiful girl. And she's very helpful and good at bowling!" Grinning she pointed out Max. "I met Max when he arrived. He can heal things instantly! He touched a bird with a broken wing and it flew away!" She was still astounded by that, especially since she loved wildlife. "And the Doctor, he's such a lovely man. He has taught me about art in the gallery and he taught me how to play some board games yesterday!"

She looked down at her drink when she was finished and inspected it for a moment. "A Shirley Temple, though I don't know why it is called that. I think it is some sort of bubbly drink with cherry flavoring. It's quite good, would you like to try it?" She picked it up and held it out to her.

"Oh, wow! That's fantastic," she gushed, quite serious in her enthusiasm about the Japanese man. "Yeah, I like to take pictures, especially of food," she explained, pointing to the plate she had already arranged. "I love food," she admitted, although it really didn't explain her relationship with food at all well to a stranger.

Cassie's eyes grew wide, and she tilted her head to one side in surprise. "You were going to marry a Prince?" she asked, her voice getting a little high with amazement. "Oh, wow, so you're like practically a princess?" she suggested.

"I don't know, she didn't seem to think it was at all weird, but it really is," she laughed softly, rather easily amused by the name. She let her gaze wander to each of the people that Giselle pointed out to her, her expression going through varying stages of awe and amusement for each person. "Oh wow, you've met so many people!" she exclaimed, glad she had asked. "And they all seem so lovely!"

"A Shirley Temple?" she repeated, an eyebrow quirking in surprise. "No, no... I have a better idea. How about I get you a proper drink?" she asked; she was a bad influence, but what sort of party was it going to be with people sipping Shirley Temple's all night?

Giselle found it odd that the girl claimed to love food, but only liked to touch and arrange it, rather than actually consume it. She was confused, but she didn't let on. She merely nodded and moved with the subject changes.

Giselle nodded with a grin. "Yes, I very nearly was. But I probably won't be now." She had decided that she didn't really love Edward, even though he was a prince. She loved Robert.

"I've been here a long time. I was bound to run into some at least. They all have been quite lovely. I haven't met anyone I haven't liked." But that wasn't saying much, unless someone was outright rude to her, she generally liked everyone.

Giselle shrugged. "Sure. I like to try new things." Giselle had never been drunk, she didn't even know what alcohol did to the senses. She just wanted to have fun with her new friend and enjoy the party.

"Oh, yeah," she said with a sort of sad sigh. It was funny how the planet just had no regard for the plans people might have had for their own life. It wasn't something that really affected Cassie too terribly, but it seemed like something like Giselle's situation might have had a global significance. "Shame, you'd have been like a fairy-tale princess. nothing like actual princesses," she suggested. "With the exception of Diana, maybe," she added after a beat.

"Really? Oh, wow, that's good! Everyone seems just lovely!" she gushed. At least she wasn't trapped with a bunch of assholes.

"Excellent!" she squeaked, leaning over the bar and motioning for a golem. "Do you make cocktails? Maybe sex on the beach? It works with the theme," she told him, and he quickly moved off to make their drinks.

"Don't worry, it's not as rude as it sounds. If you like sweet things like that, you should enjoy it," she grinned widely.

Giselle grinned and nodded as she spoke with Cassie. She found the girl delightful and fun to talk to. Although, when Cassie ordered the drink for Giselle she had to lift a brow. That is, until she explained that it wasn't as rude as it sounded. She giggled, then.

Reaching for the drink once the golem had made it and brought it over, she took a sip. It was really sweet, but there was an underlying bite that didn't agree with her. It was very strange and not altogether pleasant. She took another sip, wondering if it would taste the same. It did. But she was warming to it.

A few gulps later, and she'd finished the cocktail. And since she'd only eaten some fruit that night, it basically went right into her bloodstream. She felt very ill not long after finishing the drink and decided that she needed to leave before she was sick all over the bar. "Uh, I'm not feeling so good. I should go. Lovely to meet you, Cassie." She put a hand over her mouth and ran for the door.
