( OPEN ) we are here and going to make it everyone's problem

WHO: Team Everlight and YOU
WHAT: Breaking the ice with a spontaneous slumber party
WHERE: Everlight wing
WHEN: Some time after arrival
WARNINGS: Destroying friendships with UNO or something. Will edit for real as things come up.

(The fun thing about being taken and thrown into a new place is no one really knows you so when Tsurumaru Kuninaga is missing from dinner, he's sure no one really notices. Eventually someone will learn that whenever he's missing for too long, he's probably up to something if he doesn't actually have something to do.

He returns some time towards the end of dinner, when most people have probably begun to settle a bit for the evening. He stumble-dashes back to the base with an armful of plastic shopping bags and oooh he is definitely up to something…)

& SET UP

In the Everlight wing, they need to do some ☆re-arranging☆. Some desks and chairs need to be borrowed from rooms to drag outside for the food. While they're at it, they might as well grab the blankets and pillows too. They might also have to figure out what appropriate music to play. So maybe someone knocks on your door to commandeer your furniture and time. Or maybe they figure out a way to play music so everyone can hear and you end up drawn out by music.

Maybe you get sent out to buy more snacks and drinks for everyone while you're standing around with nothing to do. Let's go, Everlights. It's time to drag people into early shenanigans.

& FOOD & GAMES

There is plenty of food to be found. Check out the mixed bottles of different flavored sodas and teas, assorted chocolates, and other sweets from the convenience stores. Eventually, a couple of pizzas and a few more substantial things might show up on the table. Some of them are traditional flavors characters will be used to seeing but others may… be more out there. There sure are a lot of more experimental foods combinations in the future, huh? Have you ever tried coffee-flavored water? Yogurt-flavored potato chips? Flaming hot lava chocolate? What about calamari Oreo pizza? Well, now is your chance.

There are also stacks of playing cards and maybe some other silly toys and games from whatever is the equivalent of a dollar/pound store in the future.The 100 Kryptos store? Which version of UNO do you know how to play? Do you know how to play Werewolf or Mafia? There are plenty of bottles to spin. Give someone a call and see if they answer or else you have to eat one of those cursed pizza slices. Of course, when enough people gather around, there are plenty of other ways to make your own fun.

& CHILL

For more introverted characters that might want a quieter place to hang out, some Everlight has probably left their room open. Pillows and blankets have been piled into the room to make it a quieter, more laidback place to hang out. When was the last time you made a pillow fort?

// WILDCARD/OOC

Hello, Tsuru gets bored easily and he wants everyone to have ☆good vibes☆ because bad vibes make him sad so he is steamrolling and dragging people into slumber party shenanigans. It's in the Everlight wing but other characters can hop over if they're curious or dragged in. I asked the mods about the potential consequences of staying the night and they said it would be fine for the slumber party so go wild.

Treat this as an open mingle and feel free to come up with your own ideas and tag around. If anyone really needs me for anything, you can DM me or catch me on plurk (

yosakoi ).

▶001 SET UP
[Maybe you're the person who's knocked on Raidou's dorm door at #012, unsure if is even occupied. There has barely been a peep heard from this room since the boy arrived, and when the door is opened, it's without a word. Just a pair of sharp grey eyes peering at you from under a hat brim, through the crack in the door. His expression is hard to read. But, well, the party needs some chairs, and everyone needs to contribute. There will be no hermits tonight.]

▶002 FOOD & GAMES
[Okay, fine. Raidou is in this place whether he likes it or not, and it's probably best if he at least meets the rest of his team for now. However, this place is so overwhelming to someone like him, hailing from the year 1922. He stands at the snack table completely befuddled.]

... What's an Or-E-o?

[At this time, though, his presence is enough, and he doesn't really have enough spirit to play a game right now, but he will watch others. He can get an idea of how Werewolf or Uno works in the first place anyway.

Who left these empty bottles here, though? Clearly this is some trash and not anything to do with a game, right? Perhaps you want to stop him before he chucks them in the trash.]

▶003 PILLOW FORT
[Lucky Raidou, his room was chosen for a pillow fort. It's fine, it's not like he has a lot of possession to worry about other than a pretty cool katana, which he is relieved to find untouched.

He looks around at the whole thing, and considers maybe just slipping past the construction to get to his bed, but curiosity gets the better of him. He walks over and lifts up the makeshift sheet-door to see if anyone is inside. Got room for one more?]

❀ OFFERING DRINKS

(He's running around, flittering about like a hummingbird making sure everyone has drinks and sweets. He shoves candies and bottles of tea at everyone and when he approaches you, he offers a bottle of neon green melon soda, )

Have you had this? It's a type of bubbly drink. They come in all sorts of flavors.

(But you know how he was running around earlier? He might have shaken some of those drinks on accident so be careful opening them or else they might

you know

explode.

And he may or may not have meant for that to happen but who is going to believe him???)

❀ SURPRISING OTHERS

(You try to escape and manage to find a quiet place to retreat and catch your breath. The room is quiet and empty and there are piles of blankets and pillows all over the floor. Maybe you try to grab one of the blankets or maybe you're looking inside one of the pillow forts when suddenly Tsurumaru jumps out from under or behind,)

Wah!

(Ha ha.)

Are you surprised?

❀ WINDING DOWN

So these are the ways people have fun…

(It's later in the night and everything is beginning to wind down. All that's left is the food no one really wanted and some people have decided to return to their rooms for the night. With things quieting down, Tsurumaru seems to be reflecting on something?)

『 001 - SET UP 』

[ A party? And a chance to mingle with fellow teammates, at that?

Well, she's just upset she didn't think of it first, really.

Maybe you're the one knocking on her door to let her know to join the fun. In which case, she'll be answering the door looking a little confused in her LILITH-provided lounge wear, an oversized white t-shirt and bright, Everlight-yellow joggers.

Or maybe you're the one she's now excitedly knocking on the door of, calling out as she does: ]

Hiiii-! Anyone home?

『 002 - IT'S A SLEEPOVER, AFTER ALL ♥ 』

[ The food and the party games were important, of course -- but there's one thing missing from this event that will make it perfect, and that's ...
Doing each other's hair and nails, of course!

At some point early on in the set up, Ino disappeared to the conbini to purchase a small selection of reasonably priced nail polish, nail polish remover, and cotton balls. Top that off with some brushes, combs, hair ties/barrettes and bobby pins to round the whole thing out, and you've got a beauty station (of sorts).

While she's left most of what she's purchased on a table where anyone can access it, she's definitely using some of it herself. Maybe you decided to take on the Herculean task of braiding her hair (it goes down to her knees, fair warning!)? Or maybe she's painting your nails or brushing out your hair, instead. ]

This is going to look so cute when it's done!

『 003 - WILDCARD 』

[ Anything else you can think of! Ino will definitely be flitting around and hitting up anyone she hasn't met yet if they're just standing around, and making sure to introduce herself to anyone who looks interesting or like they need/want someone to talk to. She'll generally be keeping the door to her own apartment shut during the party, but if someone asks to take a peek, or the girlies need privacy to gossip, she might open it on up!

If you have an idea for a different prompt, feel free to go for it or send me a PM! ]

SET UP.

[ Yuji is and always will be the guy who wants to try and help as much as possible. When it comes to things needing to be moved around, he's on it - physically lifting desks, chairs and other heavy things with one arm and placing them where he's directed to put them down without kicking up a fuss. He gathers his blankets and pillows and puts them in a corner, and then he's wandering around to check in with people here and there. ]

Do you need any help?

[ You know, with heavy lifting, or moving things, or just generally?

He also volunteers to go out for snacks and drinks, and can be found hovering by the door waiting for whoever might want to come with him, bubbling with anxious, excited energy.

For those who have yet to experience him in Everlight, what will come across is something fairly simple: Yuji is like a dog, desperate to do what he can to help and sometimes just a little bit excited to be invited and involved. ]

FOOD AND GAMES

[ Yuji immediately throws himself head first into the games.

For a little while, he does watch, learning the rules for things he's not sure of and peeking here and there, but eventually he sits down and starts to have a go. His ability to play the games definitely depends on how much of a poker face you might need to play it - he is dreadful at hiding what colours he wants for Uno, but is excellent at tolerating anything that might need a bit of physical involvement. Spin the bottle is almost a mystery for him, but one invite will have him sitting down and taking part as if he's a master.

Later, when he gets hungry, he can be found staring at the food with a serious, thoughtful expression as he tries to decide what to eat. Considering his history with eating weird things (fingers being the top of the list) he doesn't really think he can be picky, so he's the one ready to try any of those odd combinations. Did you want someone to test out that Oreo pizza for you? Just as Yuji, he'll take a bite without being asked twice.

Sometimes you don't even have to ask, just glance at it, and he'll offer, keen to make friends and see all the new people around here.

Eventually, he can be found slumped in the corner, especially when it gets closer to being 'late', wrapped in a blanket and playing idly with the edges. Either he's totally worn out or he's just hit that brick wall of exhaustion turned sadness, but it's obvious his mood has dipped a little bit. ]

WILDCARD.

[ Yuji can be found in various places around the sleepover, including a) playing in the pillow fort and helping build it; b) slipping away for a little bit of fresh air; c) dipping off to his room for a break and to get more things or d) literally anywhere else. I'm happy to do anything here, and you can feel free to PM to figure something out if you want! )

SETUP

[ To say that Shion is feeling a bit overwhelmed by everything would be a charming understatement, but the only way out is through. Sitting alone in his room does nothing, so when someone asks for help and Shion jumps in perhaps a little too eagerly, all too ready for the distraction. It's possible that he should have asked a couple more questions first.

Which is how he can be found meticulously draping a sheet over some carefully arranged chairs to form something like a low tent. The purpose of this is lost on him, but so are most things at the moment so he's powering through. However focused he might be, though, it won't stop him from tilting his head as he hears someone moving. ]

Careful.

[ Were you about to run straight into a stray chair? Knock over a precarious stack of pizza boxes? Whatever it was, Shion doesn't need to be looking to have your back. ]

FOOD AND GAMES

[ So this is a slumber party. For the most part, Shion is content to simply sit and listen in on the various activities taking part, but if invited into something he'll gamely try to play along. He might even allow himself to be roped into a card game, but well...

He runs his fingers across the smooth cards he's been handed for along second before tipping his head at someone nearby. ] What do they say?

[ ...perhaps it's best to just leave him with the extremely normal tea he's apparently unearthed from somewhere. He will very happily pour some for anyone who sits still long enough. He'll also politely accept any sort of food thing offered to him without proverbially blinking. But you wouldn't give him anything weird, right? ]

WILDCARD

[ Shion is apparently on reasonable adult duty and will mostly be calmly hanging out just about anywhere. Please feel free to make his life difficult. If you want to plan something specific, shoot me a PM! ]

1: snack table

[ The amount of thought Akira put into picking up novelty snacks for this party was exactly: none. none thoughts. That's why there's a tapioca boba pizza sitting on the table, like an affront to god and the devil, with a teenager sitting crosslegged and contemplating it like it's a complicated maths problem. ]

[ There's a maple syrup dipping sauce that's meant to go with it.*
* (Akira is faintly aware, from the info that had been dumped on them re: the general state Earth is in, this is probably sugar-substitute with brown food colouring. Whether that makes it better or worse is an exercise for the discerning reader.) ]

.......... Dare you to try a bite. I'll do it if you do.

2: chill ~~(lurking in the alleyway like a cool guy except it's a pillowfort so no, not cool at all)~~

[ He's not in the pillowfort, but stretched full-length between the back of the fort and the actual room wall. Seems he didn't want to get up and someone just kinda... built the fort against him. The effect is rather like a cat that has squimshed itself behind the couch. This should not be comfortable. ]

[ (Has he strategically done this so that he's hidden for when it's time to clean up? Maybe. Yes.) ]

[ At this late hour, Akira's only half paying attention to the movements of other people, or the buzz of thoughts coming from them. Instead he's idly flicking stray bits of popcorn or candy high into the air, heedless of where they go. He squints up if someone comes into his field of view, whether they're annoyed at him for flicking popcorn at them, or trying to tidy up and he's in the way, or just saying hello: ] What?

[ Alternately, if there's someone in the fort trying to get his attention, he responds with an even more petulant: ] What?

setup!;

( he doesn't really know what's going on at first, but when he sees people start to move things around, tables and chairs and blankets and such? he's pretty sure that means there's about to be a good time to be had.

he doesn't need to be prompted to leave his room once he hears all the rustling about; whether it's the scraping of furniture being moved or music being played or the general sort of hustle-and-bustle that always accompanies a get-together of this size, he's joining in on the setup wherever he can, offering his own blanket and pillow wherever it might be most useful.

if you look like you might need some help with whatever you're doing? carrying some bags in? he's your guy. but it sure would be a shame if someone accidentally got smacked with a pillow during all the moving around … )

food & games!;

( boy oh boy, you had better believe that there is a whole lot of stuff here that he's never tried before. the sodas are all probably flavors he's never even heard of, much less tried for himself, and he's surely not used to the fizzy nonsense of carbonation, so he might end up sneezing a time or two between sips of different kinds.

please feel free to call him on this.

otherwise feel free to come across him at any time during his sampling of all the foods available, he becomes completely enamored with a pizza that has pineapple and gummy bears ( gross, vash ) on it and if there are any errant oreos lying around all by themselves and not on a pizza … he's going to find himself a new favorite thing, you better believe.

you might even find him looking at all those bottles meant for spinning and wondering … why they're there … because if they're empty, shouldn't they get cleared away, or something?

if nothing else — ) What's … ( is he thinking about how he's supposed to pronounce this? yes. ) … Uh-no? Yoo-no? I feel like I'm not saying that right.

chill!;

( his room is empty, and no one else has claimed it for the sake of their own pillow fort, so you know what's going to happen? he's gonna build one.

he might have donated his own bedding to the cause in the beginning but he's going to end up sneaking it back along with another stack of pillows — he'll make sure they get back to where they belong, don't worry, even if it doesn't really matter — and anyone passing by his door is going to see him meticulously arranging and rearranging blanket and pillows until he finds something he likes, and once he's finally happy with it he's going to plop right down in the middle. maybe wiggle a little bit to get comfortable. because this feels a whole lot like being a kid without ever having really been a kid in the first place … don't mind him if he's a little bit indulgent.

to anyone within earshot, if he catches the sight of feet walking by: ) I've never built anything like this before, but I think it came out pretty good. What do you think?

wildcard!;

( obligatory choose-your-own-adventure option if you don't see anything up there you're vibing with. hit me up on plurk ( creatura ) if you wanna hash something out or just start your own thing. i'm easy! )

💥 SET UP.

[Hearing the sounds of noise and chatter elsewhere in the wing tells him exactly what's going on: a damn social gathering. It brings back memories of his classmates in 1-A when they wind up making a noisy riot in the common room on the first floor. Usually loud enough to make it all the way up into the other floors if they don't give a shit enough to keep it down.

Compared to everyone else on the Everlight team, Bakugo takes the sounds of parties as the clear sign to stay the fuck in his room and avoid mingling like a grouchy bear. He already helped set up the Christmas party out in the town; no one's getting him to do that crap again.

Instead he's content to stay in his room and mess around with his costume and gear, which he thankfully found waiting for him there after getting back from orientation. Doing so brings back a rushing flood of thoughts, of things and people left behind, of intentions undone...]

What?

[The sound of a knock on the door earns that snarling retort.]

~ 0 ~

[However, if by some miracle he does end up getting dragged out to deal with the set up, you can find him taking charge of arranging the room or expertly preparing food and getting it ready/arranged, efficiently organizing potential chaos and making sure there are areas specifically set up for games and food so there's less mess to deal with once everything's said and done. Don't expect him to offer up his furniture or blankets though; those stay in his locked room.]

💥 FOOD & GAMES.

[Apparently even in some alternate dimension, the food is bound to veer to the side of "junk" when people want to have a damn get together. Where did they get all this crap, a gas station? At least he's not going to bitch about the pizza, because any teenager's going to appreciate the familiar-from-home taste and texture. You can damn well bet Bakugo's finding the more exotic flavored pizzas disgusting. Who puts fucking chocolate on pizza?! WITH SQUID?! Sounds like something Todoroki would accidentally make or Kaminari and Ashido would deliberately concoct.

That said, Bakugo's the one sticking with whatever spicy pizza he can find, and doesn't seem at all affected by something that would have a normal person breathing fire or sweating bullets. And he'll check out the hot lava chocolate because that sounds badass. Or munching on some vegetables that happen to get into the party. Somehow. He's health conscious. Any popsicles for dessert? Not the intense sugary kind, but the general fruit-juice simple varieties.

But the games end up being the only place he actually finds himself getting lost in, if someone manages to cajole him (or egg him) into the ring. Fiercely competitive and over-dramatic as hell, expect to get threatened with death for skipping him in UNO, or hear an unmistakable "HAH! I WIN, LOSER!" upon destroying another pathetic loser, or an ominous intimidation for daring to raise his gamble on the dice points. He's here to win, bragging rights if nothing else.

Don't you dare inquire about spinning the bottle unless you want that thing shoved up your nose...]

💥 CHILL.

[Party that it may be, once it hits 9:30, Bakugo's retiring to his room, whether the party is over and things are put away or not. If you extras wanna make a mess, you deal with cleaning it up. He's done his part. He'll be in bed by 10 like civilized person, but if you happen to catch him in that half an hour, maybe you can get a short conversation out of him... Just don't keep him up late. He has no problem kicking someone out of his room. Literally if necessary.]

💥 WILDCARD.

[OOC: If you'd like to meet up with Bakugo for another prompt, feel free to just post it here or PM me to chat it out. For the most part, he's going to be distant and grumpy, so the best source of alternate scenes would be taking 'business' (missions or LILITH) or possibly getting him to talk about heroes and/or his costume and gear if you happen to get into his room.]

[ well, he missed out on the party and denji likes to believe it was for a good cause. he got caught up on a movie marathon back in the theater and by the time he was done abusing his privileges as an employee there— it was 2 in the morning and all his new comrades were snoozing in their rooms. denji didn't think much of it; he simply grabbed whatever leftovers he could find and retired back to his space.

it's the next day and he's up early in the common kitchen— cooking a simple omelet breakfast to start the day. there's a huge carton of eggs on a nearby counter; his stolen goods from those naked firefighters he stumbled upon yesterday. it was such an uncomfortable assemblage but for unknown reasons, they had a full set of eggs lingering around. why? god knows. regardless, they were begging for a new home, and here they are. everlight's first stolen treat.

he could hear someone coming in as he started seasoning the half-cooked eggs, unsure of who it was but it didn't matter. there is enough for everyone— he's not in a selfish mood today. ]
