When; December 31, evening
Rating; PG for unfortunate deaths via terrible cooking
Characters; Shotahouse + Invited
Summary; Flynn attempts to make a full-course dinner for the New Year. Little do they know, he has a surprise for them by the end.
Log; [Is watching from the sidelines as the food is gradually brought out onto their large dining table. Yuri is dubious. He is suspicious. Thankfully, so far, he smells no death. He made absolutely sure that Flynn followed the recipes to the dot.]

Wonder when everyone's gonna show up...

Everything smells delicious.

[Arrived with her brother, Lelouch, and their escort, Flynn. Now she is just admiring everything. It's nice to be so new to the city and already invited to a party like this. There will be so many new people to meet!]

[ This is Ino, sidling up to the pink-haired girl. She's always had good luck with pink-haired girls. ]

Yeah, it smells delicious.

[deadly_legacy]

Oh, hello. I'm Euphie, [Casual, it's a party] a friend of Flynn's. [And isn't catching onto what she means by stressing smells there.]

[floralities.livejournal.com]

[ She immediately perks up at this "friend" business, then remembers her manners and holds out her hand for Euphie to shake. ] Ino. I practically live here sometimes.

[deadly_legacy]

Oh, I've heard you mentioned. [She clasps the other girl's hand to shake it.] It's very nice to meet you.

[ really Lelouch isn't interested in this. not the party or really the people throwing it. the only reason he is here in the first place is because his sister insists on it. for the moment he is going to just stay on the outside fringes. wall flower type is a go. ]

[ After finishing with the preparations and successfully bringing all that food he's prepared to the tables, Flynn is ready to entertain... to the best of his abilities, in any case. He makes note of Ino and Euphemia and is honestly happy to see them get along but... hmm. There's Lelouch. ]

I'm glad that you've come as well, Sir Lelouch.

[wishsrequiem.livejournal.com]

[ ah. Flynn. being so formal at least is somewhat comforting. Lelouch has had plenty of practice at it. he offers a polite smile in return. ]

I would not be much of a brother or a gentleman if I did not accompany my sister.

[srslynotguy.livejournal.com]

You didn't wish to accompany Lady Euphemia in the first place?

[ Returns that nice and polite smile. ]

[swordmastering.livejournal.com]

[Not at all pleased to be at a party. But somehow he got roped into it. So he'll just be hovering over by a wall and pretty much staying out of the way of everyone.]

[notflynn.livejournal.com]

[Spies you, Leon! Walks over with an easy smile.]

Well, you look like you're enjoying yourself.

[swordmastering.livejournal.com]

[Have an audible hmph in response to that.]

This is a waste of time.

[notflynn.livejournal.com]

Not even a little excited about the new year, huh?

[Laughs. He's not at all surprised.]

[dreamsofhorns.livejournal.com]

[ Since he has no idea what to do, the socially awkward nerd will just be staying out of the way and reading a book. ...And considering he's engrossed in said book, anyone can totally frighten him if they wanted to. ]

[Natalia arrives! She is mostly excited to see Flynn, but- oh, who is that adorable little girl in the corner over there? My, she's not seen anyone so studious since- well, ever. Anise was certainly never the type to sit in a corner and read. So she wanders over, smiling, and greets the girl]

Don't you want to join the festivities?

[dreamsofhorns.livejournal.com]

[ Please be ignoring him looking like a startled deer for a few seconds! It never happened. Really! Anyway, he (oh, if only he knew what was going on in Natalia's head) bookmarks the page he's on and closes it. Father always told him it was rude to read when someone was talking... ]

Oh, umm... Well... I'm fine with watching?

[imperialwill.livejournal.com]

[She claps her hands in front of her and smiles brightly]

Oh, but that sounds so dull in comparison. I'm sure nobody would mind if you joined in.

[wind-magic.livejournal.com]

[So there's extra people in the house today. That's nice. Luc will just sit over in a corner and watch you all move around.]

[deadly_legacy]

[Euphie notices this person in the corner and goes over to say...] Hello. It's a nice party, isn't it?

[wind-magic.livejournal.com]

[Oh, hello there.]...I guess it might be.

[deadly_legacy]

[Smiles at the odd phrasing.] My name is Euphie. [Euphie is much more party-ready than Euphemia.]

[ Somewhere around 11 p.m. or so, Ino finally reveals the contents of the little paper bag she brought with her--but only to herself, as she slips over to the bowl of punch and very discreetly pours in an entire bottle of rum. Time to party, bitches.

Then, just as quietly, she slips away again, looking very smug as she watches the results from the kitchen. ]

[notflynn.livejournal.com]

[Pouring himself a cup.

..........huh. This tastes a little- hm, whatever.]

[floralities.livejournal.com]

[ VICTIM NUMBER ONE, DOWN.

Ino smirks and sidles up behind Yuri, her chest against his back, speaking lowly into his ear. ]

What, you're going for the punch? Don't want to try the stronger stuff?

[notflynn.livejournal.com]

[A little caught off guard- but relaxes and smirks as he continues sipping]

I prefer the punch- you know, drinking too much can make strange things happen. Like weird marks appearing on your face.
