Don’t worry about the future.

Who: EV ERY ONE
What: Graduation. Prom.
When: The evening of May 31st.
Where: The Stadium.
Warnings: WHO KNOWS

It's a beautiful spring evening at Smash Academy, the barest hints of summer just beginning to touch the stadium floor, which had been rearranged into a platform overlooking neat rows of chairs meant to seat the gathered crowd of faculty and students. Towards the other end of the complex was the arrangement for the prom that was to follow. Food and drink, chairs and tables, each with a floral centerpiece, and, of course, a dance floor.

title or description


Before everyone could get their party on, however, there was the main event of the evening. From his place at the podium, Master Hand watched students and staff alike find their way into the stadium. With the recent shadow bug invasion, there seemed to be tensions in need of dispelling. If the Headmaster knew one thing, however, it was that some silly antics were not going to ruin this esteemed event. Not tonight. Not if he could help it.

HEY DUDES! Here's how stuff is going to work. We kick off the log with GRADUATION. This part of the log will be divided into separate threads. I'll post them all at once, so feel free to hop around, mingle, post whenever, wherever.

HOWEVER, once the PROM starts, it will be up to you guys to post your own threads. Please check out last year's log if you'd like an idea of how this works. Everything after the thread titled "DISMISSAL" (I will post that in a bit, so don't post prom threads until I have that up!) will be considered prom, though don't let that stop you from continuing to post in the graduation section.

Please label all your threads appropriately! (Examples: "SHENANIGANS AT THE FOOD TABLE", "DANCE-OFF", "THE PUNCH IS SPIKED", "BOTHER X" In general, a location + what is going on in the thread is the way to go. Obviously, more than one thread can take place at the same location. 

Linking back and forth when and if you thread hop is very much appreciated. If things start to look a bit laggy, we'll bump to the next page. Most importantly, TAG YOUR DUDES, HAVE FUN, and let a mod know about any problems or concerns you might have!

What was that? It looked like it was crafted by hand, he could clearly see the jutted out nails in what almost looked like a can. But now, whatever households were used were supposedly now a deadly weapon.

Supposedly, Connor was going to have to ask about this thing later. Joel had some with him on the hunting trip, did he? He could have sworn, after all, Joel was always just about as heavily armed as Connor was.

Modern weaponry aside, he could tell at this point that he was looking at an explosive. He could tell just from Joel's attitude.

"I will make sure others stay clear, you know what to do," agreed Connor. Hopefully this did something, and then hopefully Connor had an opening if it wasn't already knocked down.

He just wanted this thing to be taken care of as fast as possible.

She smiled as she eyed him, knowing she wanted to believe she'd never have cause for alarm. As she stood there next to him, it really began to solidify things for the two of them and where they may have been looking to go. Ever consistently Eirik's mind was on the future, and sometimes Connor's was as well.

But for those immediate moments, she thought they were the same. They only wanted to be with one another in those particular ways.

"Connor," she began with a subtle serious demeanour. "As long as you are happy, that is what will matter most. It does not have to be with me. Yet you are important to me, and so is your joy. Maybe once I may not have been able to say it and mean it. It seems love has a way of changing things."

It took just about every class that Connor visited, because she was his mother, to know just what kind of awkward things entailed within this bag. He looked inside and quite possibly turned just the slightest bit pink. Ziio might only notice because he was her son, but it probably wouldn't be something people would normally point out. Plus, Ziio was close enough to see his eyes jerk around nervously a little.

Connor knew he couldn't hide a solitary thing from her either.

"Nothing really private," Connor started, decided to direct his explanation onto a question instead. "Mother, how do you feel about...envy?"

She was more thankful that he was one of the few who just accepted what she gave without too much of a fuss. Not at all like Falcon and his ridiculous spectacle of privacy invasion and putting words in her mouth. She respected the man, but that was absolutely unnecessary and one day she'd be letting him know that.

But today wasn't that day, as it were.

Her head tilted and she tried to remember if she'd ever felt it before. She couldn't say she had. Maybe as a child? Except there was never really anything to get envious about. Envy implied some type of greed, or a potential for greed. Back in the village, they were content with few things and therefore, there wasn't much to envy. Yet in the world they'd come to...

"Envy?" she asked him, her eyebrows knitting together with some consideration. "A human emotion. Likely as natural as anger and joy, or sorrow. Have you made someone envious, Ratonhnhaké:ton?"

Mac stood up straighter, considering that. A start over, right? Start completely over. That sounded good, but the guilt was still so very evident and Mac couldn't shake it. He tried being friendly, but his reaction completely rocked this poor lady.

He messed up, he messed up.

Because he wanted to keep his stupid name a secret, because he was too embarrassed to ever share it.

Mac felt petty, stupid, and wrong. How could he solve this? He wanted to make it up to this woman, firstly. So he was willing to do almost anything. He still kept a smile, in hopes it made her feel better eventually.

"...Sure, whatever you wanna do, okay?"

Mac tried to not frown, mainly because there was probably a lot of people Brock knew when he was here last that were gone now. Sure, some stayed, and he thought he knew some of the guys Mac knew. So he decided to go from there. Hopefully, maybe the feeling of more familiarity would make this reunion better. Despite them now getting over their (stupid) little awkward thing they had going on.

"Well, y'know Max? Green? Daisy? Bulba? Those guys are still around."

Ugh, ugh. Mac could smell it, yeah. He may not drink, but he did know the smell of it, and the smell of people when they drank it. He's been around his league people, he's been around friends who went to bars when he had nothing to drink, he's been there.

He tried to not wrinkle his nose, in respect to Samus. He tried really hard. But it smelled BAD.

Why was she drunk already? That seemed odd for someone like her. It made Mac legit uncomfortable now.

But let's not having people puking or passing out, he hoped.

"Uh...! Busy but I like it like that. I'm used to workin' with a lot on my plate. Boxin' club turned into somethin' great while bein' so busy."

"Who-deeni?" Let it be said, she's made leaps and bounds when it came to pop-culture stuff but some things still slipped under the radar now and then.

Either way he said the magic words; challenge, so perhaps they could plan this at some point in the future. But not now. Now she was enjoying post-birthday drunkery and dancing with him.

Dancing on a full stomach did not sound like a fun time. But then again, Sonny was a Snorlax. They... seemed to have to do everything on a full stomach.

"I, er..." Jeez, he could talk a little about other peoples' dates, but when it came to discussing his own love life he wanted to clam right up. Which was DUMB. He cleared his throat. "I asked Asahina, of course!"

"Harry Houdini," he said with a flourish, smiling a little. "Escape artist of nineteenth century Earth."

Falcon was well aware that most of this was flying over Samus' head, but he found it an apt comparison. Not that he had any plans to bust out of tanks filled with water anytime soon.

"He's got nothing on me."

"I comprehend," the robot replied. "You are correct. It depends on the form of dancing whether it can be defined as such."

His eyes scanned the crowd, and he pointed. "Perhaps that form, for instance," he said as he pointed towards the purple haired genie girl who was dancing up a storm like a pro.

"Error: I am already a robot." Some explanation was in order, Pitone.

"Agreed," she said, focusing for the time being on their dancing. He wasn't half bad at it, she noted, just letting herself get into it for a while. It felt nice.

"If by 'dip 'em in cheese' you mean 'have my robots riddle you with holes', then yes," he replied.

Ziio, Mac's face was blood red, like a cherry. He actually went up to go pick up the bag himself, flustered and nervous. Mac didn't try to hide it, because he knew he was screwed the moment he dropped it.

He just hope nobody saw, and everyone else was just too busy to care what Mac was doing.

He swallowed hard, and found himself sweating. He was in huge trouble now. He was in for it, he thought.

"N-nooo, I-!" Mac stuttered. "I'll just. Take it."

"Yeah, he takes care of me just fine, and I take care of him too."

She didn't mean that the way you meant it, Falcon.

"Not as much as I would'a liked to."

It was OK to admit that much. He trusted Connor. But he wasn't about to get too personal.

"I still like to. In my world, there were better uses for alcohol than drinkin' it though. Disinfect wounds with it and as an accelerant for fire, mostly."
golonghorns: (Strained)

[personal profile] golonghorns 2014-06-15 05:43 am (UTC)(link)
Joel nodded, using a pile of debris as cover and waiting for Connor to get his butt clear.

"FIRE IN THE HOLE!" he called out so that anyone still silly enough to be nearby couldn't complain later if they got a nail in the ass.

He tossed the bomb in a wide arc. It let loose a trail of smoke as it flew, landing between the giant robot and some of his smaller followers and exploding with a resounding THOOM and the multiple little sounds of nails hitting everything.

"Hoooo boy." Joel replied. "Really, now? You're gonna threaten me with robots? The heck kind'a man are you?"

"Fine, dude, fine, just go."

And in his heart of hearts, Hagakure took it back, about wishing that his prediction didn't come true.

In fact, Hagakure spent the next twenty minutes in a corner, doing a series of predictions -- tarot, crystal gazing -- about Ichymarble's night, until he'd reached a nice, stable, 30% frequency on one of them.

Yes. There we go. Good. Good.

"D... don't you know?" He asked quietly. "Of course I have."

He'd fallen in love with her a long time ago. He knew things had changed between them, but at least one thing hadn't. He loved her just as much now as he ever had, and the manner in which he loved her hadn't changed at all. He didn't love her like a sister. Nor did he love her, precisely, as a very dear friend. He loved her in that way too, and if it were to be destined so, he could be happy with just that. But there was something more to the way he felt about her and it just.... hadn't gone anywhere and he didn't see it disappearing any time soon.

But maybe he shouldn't have admitted that aloud. Maybe he should have left it unsaid and just carried on with their evening and allowed things to remain as they had been. Close and comfortable and fun and without expectation. He'd told Kiyotaka that he'd be more direct about things but there was always that nagging voice in the back of his head telling him to tread carefully and think ahead and be mindful of other's feelings before his own.
punchtheflute: (Human - Hugging)

[personal profile] punchtheflute 2014-06-15 06:07 am (UTC)(link)
"Ohhhh! She's so nice!" Sonny said, clapping Kiyotaka on the shoulder gently. "I think she's so cool! She can really eat a LOT of donuts! And she's nice to talk to."

He hadn't spent a great deal of time with her, but they were friendly acquaintances. And anyone who can impress a Snorlax by eating a lot of donuts has to be someone really very special.

[personal profile] crystal_ballin 2014-06-15 06:10 am (UTC)(link)
"Isn't my thing, dude," said Hagakure. "But I guess if you're into that sorta thing..." he shrugged. "Like I guess you are." Into that sort of thing.
jonny_talbain: Drawn by Michelle! (Human - Softer smile)

[personal profile] jonny_talbain 2014-06-15 06:11 am (UTC)(link)
"Agreed." he replied with a nod and a smile to match hers. Wry, candid and rare.
crystal_ballin: (Shock)

[personal profile] crystal_ballin 2014-06-15 06:31 am (UTC)(link)
Hagakure looked sort of mildly surprised. "Wow, really? You do? The traditional Japanese calendar has 24... uh... sekki... uh... small seasons. Each season has six small seasons inside of it. They're on all the calendars. Seasons like, uh, 'Awakening of Insects' and 'Cold Dew.'"
