Town Hall was all decked out in harvest theme with this being so close to Halloween and all. Pumpkins and squash and random corn! The corn, people! Think of the corn! But please, for the love of all that is holy, don't allow your children near it. Especially not the creepy gingers.

There was plenty of food and punch--not yet spiked--set to the side of the spacious room. Which left plenty of space for the general mulling about that kids were so fond of these days. Or dancing. And even the occasional dark bits in which to lurk. Have a fun homecoming, kiiiiids and remember to vote!

While the students had been completing their last finals, an NPC staff had been hard at work converting one of the empty warehouses into the site of tonight's dance. When the guests arrived this evening, they'd be greeted by a long yellow carpet, leading up to the open glass doors of the warehouse.

Once inside, they would find the space brightly decorated to celebrate the summer season. Gold drapes covered the walls, splashed liberally with glitter to make them sparkle in the low lights of the warehouse. Flowers were placed here and there, not overwhelming but definitely noticeable and fragrant. Images of beaches, palm trees, sunsets, sunrises, hammocks, and other various summer images were being projected on the walls randomly.

A long table consisting of food and drinks was along one wall, providing plenty of sustenance for everyone for their long night of fun. Dark corners could be found here and there, of course. There was music playing and a disco balls projecting light onto the dance floor.

It was time for the summer dance.

Tyler paced the gym barefoot as the fighters assembled. "Graduates," he began. "Students. Teachers. People who work in town. Miscellaneous others. Welcome to fight club."

"We're glad to have you here," Ghanima continued smoothly. "But if you're here, you fight. If, for some reason you cannot fight, we ask you stay towards the back. This isn't a place for voyeurism. If you want a show, go find a television."

"Ghanima, you speak my language," Tyler informed her., before turning back to the group. "Two people to a fight, fights end when someone goes limp or says stop. We are not trying to kill each other here; we're trying to train. We're trying to improve. Got questions, ask one of us." He looked at his cohort. "Anything else?"

"Rules are on the door," she said crisply, "but we're happy to answer any inquires you may have."

"Now go hit the mats or go home."

It was the Grads' Brunch in the park today, as the brightly coloured banner -- CONGRATULATIONS, CLASS OF 2008! -- indicated.

There were lots of tables and chairs set up in the park, under sails for shade, and long tables groaning under the weight of the food and drink. Not just traditional moddable brunch foods, but a wide selection of also moddable greek dishes and delicacies.

Coffees, teas, punch, juices and softdrink were only some of the also also moddable are you sensing a theme here? wide range of drinks.

Music played quietly in the background, the speakers hanging from the trees, and bocce ball and croquet had been set up. There was even space for dancing, a hard floor having been laid over the grass between the trees.

It may be the Grads' Brunch, but everyone was welcome! Come and congratulate the class of 2008!

The first thing that might be noticed when students walked into the Town Hall was the towering stone troll statues that had been dragged in to grace the corners of the dance floor.  It being Homecoming and a semi-formal dance, the trolls were decked out appropriately in hats, glitter, and togas.  Fairy lights were strung across the ceiling, some twined with streamers and some dripping glitter and confetti across the dance floor. 

The walls were decorated with blown up pictures of significant events at Fandom: Graduations, the school blowing up, the Christmas pageants, plays, carnivals, zombies, all the moments that make Fandom Fandom.  Given a place of honour on the walls were a mock up of an exploding volcano, a massive gremlin in a bow tie, and, of course, the Stickbug flag.

Large lit up snowmen congregated around the punch bowl against a snowy backdrop and across the ballroom near the stage, there was a mural of large dinosaurs reaching up to enjoy a glittery streamer dinner.  The wall of the door though had the biggest picture of all - a painting of the island at night from across the water.

As students dropped off their wraps, they were pointed to vote for Homecoming Court then encouraged to proceed into the ballroom.

A series of tents (in various sizes) and covered walkways had sprung up all over the park by midday. There were lots of open spaces, but one could easily get to any part of the carnival without venturing out into the sunlight. Only some of the seating and the big rides - the Ferris wheel, swings, and merry-go-round sat out in the open.

Something felt different today when Mary walked into the hotel lobby. It took a little while to put her finger on it, but Mary finally realized that today was a perfectly normal day. She wasn't a kitten anymore, and she was completely sober and not hungover. It actually felt good to get back to her normal routine. She still had to call Delinda back and let her know that she was okay. There were still issues to be dealt with but Mary was going to take Stan's advice. It was going to take time to deal with her past.

A long time ago, Drax had set today as the Fandom Multi-Cultural Festival. As the date got closer and he had to deal with things like prankster fairies and rabbits made of chocolate, Drax realized that he really preferred mindless violence over multi-cultural understanding.

As such, Drax went ahead and spent school funds on adult-sized Sock 'em Boppers, Inflatable Pummel Sticks, and Inflatable Sumo Suits.

Several areas were set up, one for dueling, one for playing Rock 'em Sock 'em Robots, and a large area by the pond for a free-for-all.

Drax posted three rules in plain sight everywhere: 1) There are no rules. Just fight. 2) But if you fight without the ridiculous inflatable padding, Drax may be forced to hit you. 3) And if you try to hurt anyone, Drax may be forced to hit you.

Sure he was wearing Sock 'em Boppers over his hands. But still. A cosmically powered punch dampened by air and vinyl is still pretty impressive.

In any event, it was time to rumble in a safe, padded way.

[OOC: Seriously, this was going to be a multi-cultural festival, but it was decided that punching people would be more fun. Seems like something good to end the summer on.

Mary was in a very good mood as she came down to the lobby to help set up afternoon tea. She had a good time at the ball last night and had only heard good things about the food Gunther made.

There wasn't a whole lot of warning for what happened next. One moment, Mary was setting a pitcher of milk on the buffet table. The next thing she knew, she was looking up at the table and hoping Gunther would give her a saucer of milk. She swished her tail and meowed hopefully, trying to get the chef's attention.

Yes, Mary had turned into a kitten.

GOB took some chocolate, some Coke, and some soda water, mixed it all together, and dropped two Maraschino cherries in the concoction and called it The GOBtini.

This was his first attempt at making a brand new non-alcoholic drink. In order to encourage people to try the GOBtini, he had Tino put up a sign:
This week all non-alcoholic drinks
2% OFF!


He didn't want people to be too encouraged to buy non-alcoholic drinks, after all.

As a test, GOB tasted a GOBtini. It tasted nasty. "Just like any good non-alcoholic drink should," he said proudly to himself. He stared at it triumphantly for a moment before turning to Tino and demanding, "Get me some whiskey, this needs booze."

Later on, Tino added the phrase "GOBtinis free!" underneath the existing text.

Yitzhak had gone off-island over the weekend to do a drag pageant, and won himself a laptop for coming in fourth.

It was all Gunther's fault that Jeff was wearing a shirt today. He didn't want to talk about it. Trousers, however, had been permanently discarded as far as he was concerned and Gunther was just going to have to deal with the safari-print boxers.

Normally Gunther put up a fuss when it was his turn to watch the front desk. Not today. The front desk had a phone that was perfect for making long-distance phone calls to Las Vegas. Danny and Delinda certainly needed to know what kind of trouble Mary was getting into in Fandom.

There was a sign posted at the front door:

G.O.B. Bluth Presents:
The Third Annual
Three Minute Dates @ Caritas

hosted by A Matchmaker Named G.O.B.


However, the sign fell over because GOB had bought really cheap sign-making materials. But if people didn't know about the event, that wouldn't necessarily stop GOB from roping them in.

On the stage at precisely 5:55 PM, the familiar opening of "The Final Countdown" blared and GOB strutted out onto the stage to set the mood. With illusions. There was the standard prancing and hankies and brandishing of knives, and it ended after a couple minutes with GOB wheeling a heart-shaped ring of fire out onto stage and releasing a flock of doves to fly through it.

After Tino got the resulting minor fire under control, GOB stepped up to the microphone. "Ladies and gentlemen, it doesn't matter who you are. If you're a dateless wonder or a complete slut, this night is for you. You'll get to meet several people of some gender and maybe, just maybe, you'll be able to convince them to come home with you. And that, my friends, is the magic--" a large blast of smoke went off behind GOB and a banner that looked much like the sign up from - aside from the fact that the banner had yet to fall apart - dropped down behind GOB, "-- of Three Minute Dates at Caritas. My name is GOB Bluth and I'll be your host."

"When I call your name and the name of someone else, you will find each other, look longingly into each others' eyes, and figure out whether or not you give a damn about whatever they're talking about. If you do, remember that for later because you'll have to do the same thing four more times and then it's a battle of trying to figure out who you want to do more! And if everything goes!"

"Oh, and we had way too many guys again so enjoy your gay dates. Oh, and Round 4 is the gay round so everyone have fun, especially the ladies!"

The streets of Fandom had seen better days. While some of the dinosaurs slept, the scavengers and pack hunters had spent the night chasing whatever was in the street and harassing residents who were safely tucked away in barricaded buildings.

The sun rose over the island, revealing that some of the larger dinosaurs had moved on or had settled down. Some, however, particularly the smaller dinosaurs, were still on the rampage.

Just another lazy Sunday in Fandom.

Give Gunther some credit. He eventually caught onto the fact that Mary was missing -- somewhere around Sunday morning, long after she went off on her own and ended up in the clinic. In fact, the only reason Gunther realized that Mary was missing was that housekeeping noticed that her bed hadn't been slept in and became frantic.

If Ed Deline didn't slowly and painfully kill him, Danny McCoy certainly would. Gunther's only hope was that someone could tell him what happened to Mary because he wasn't about to go out looking for her.

The hotel staff gathered in the lobby, which had been barricaded by old furniture. Gunther had his meat cleaver, his assistant had a rolling pin, and the rest of the staff were armed with assorted makeshift weapons. There was plenty of club sandwiches, raisin scones and mint tea since they never got a chance to set up Saturday's tea service. They were willing to share with other people but not with dinosaurs.

Over the course of the evening, Fandom's population increased significantly. The prehistoric creatures that had first arrived last night were no longer alone. The newcomers inquisitively investigated their new surroundings.

Meanwhile, amidst the bits and pieces of school being reconstructed at the top of the hill, an oviraptor sniffed around. Smooth rocks that looked like eggs were left out for the taking. Cautiously, it snatched one of the rocks out of the pile. The creatures around the island screeched at the sudden pain the rock-snatcher had caused. The oviraptor dropped the mistaken egg-rock and ran away, but the damage was already done.

The sudden overwhelming pain hadn't been an isolated incident. It had triggered something inside each of the creatures' minds, aggravating them beyond normal behavior, doing what pheromone-laced leis did to snakes that one time on a plane. You know the one.

For the dinosaurs (and company), new surroundings had become hostile territory and its inhabitants were to be destroyed.

For the residents of Fandom, well, it was another one of those weekends.

Anxious for the summer session to start, Tori remembered that she had a beach party to look forwad to. It was turning out to be a great day.

Tori had managed to open the store and set up the table of refreshments, all while keeping Aiden occupied.

He was currently sitting in her lap, coloring away happily. If Proudfoot happened to wander in, Aiden would absolutely love to play with her. Because he adored animals, especially cats.

Tori was studying for finals, while Aiden hummed to himself and continued to be occupied with the coloring book.

[OOC: Running away until 11:15.]

No matter what the weather was on the mainland, the weather over the Fandom had warmed up to a beautiful spring evening, just perfect for a night of dancing.

A large tent had been set up in the park and it glowed with the soft light of what seemed like a million small white lights. The path leading up to the tent crossed a small bridge and then split, one walkway leading up to the tent, the other leading to the pond where a small dock had been set up. Two gondolas were waiting to take anyone who wished to go on a ride around the pond.

Inside the tent, numerous colorful backdrops made it seem like the students had been transported to Saint Mark's Square. The only thing missing were the pigeons.

Off to one side stood a table with a box for the final votes for the Prom Court.

It was time for Prom 2007.

[OOC: Up early for Slow-play. Please wait for the extensive OCD. Have at it!]

Tori had everything set up and ready should customers happen on by which she totally hopes for.

She made herself comfortable at the counter, listening to her mp3 player and reading some books she was currently threading for had picked up at the library.

Feeling a bit antsy, Deadpool went to the gym. Hopefully Arashi would show up for some fun sparring that didn't involve groping this time.

It was Arashi's fault for being such a hot woman, honestly.

[[ooc: open for your gym needs!]]
