[OPEN] Party all night long

Who: Reid & Balfour & EVERYONE!
What: It's a party
Where: His place in Orlea, don't worry about making a mess
When: IC May 25th
Warnings: General party things and possibly swearing? This is Reid after all.

[About an hour before the party's set to begin at 7pm, a mass text goes out with directions to his place. And by mass text, I mean mass text. Everyone is invited, especially the people who replied to his network post about it earlier, but also those who did not reply. Those who aren't even living in the same district. He wouldn't give a shit if the whole of Mallowhallow showed up on his doorstep. Bring it.

As for the party itself, well, there's loud music-good music, thank you very much; Reid knows the kind of thing (most) people want to hear and dance to at a party. There's also a lot of booze, and non-alcoholic drinks as well. It's probably not safe to trust the punch, though. Then there's the food. regular junk food type snacks like chips and dip, then some higher class home made things from Balfour like tasty chicken nuggets. There should be pizza arriving at some point, too.

The door's always open, and if there's not enough room inside, well, that's why there's chairs set up outside too, along with strings of little lights because why not it's festive.

The mastermind himself can currently be found sprawled less than gracefully in a chair, one leg thrown over an arm of the chair while he sips at a beer. Reid will be up and about greeting people and mingling as the night goes on.]

[Alex figured why the hell not show up early. She walked up to Reids place, making sure it was right, completely empty handed, too. Reid. Reid, you'll have to comment on the lack of pizza. She would be able to get it, she just forgot.

Reid, question her. Now. :|]

[He expected people to show up early, at least. Still didn't mean he actually got up to answer the door. He did, however, drag himself out of his chair when he saw who it was.]

Thought you were bringing pizza. [Because starting a conversation with hello was overrated.]

[Watch that stare you're getting for a second before understanding]

Oh yeah!

[She's gonna bend down to grab her wand from her boot and wave it before three different pizzas are on the table]

[Oh. Well then. He arched a brow, crossing his arms-you know, carefully, so that he wouldn't spill beer all over the floor. He wasn't sure what was making him stare more. The fact that she had to use a wand or the fact that she was a witch.]

So you're a witch?

[Well. He was blunt.]

Ew. Me a witch?

[She made a face]

No. I'm a wizard. Family wizard but I prefer using the wand. So much less thinking

[She gave a handswish with the hand holding the wand, but don't worry. You don't be spell'd at, Reid]

[Hey, don't you ew witches. You're talking to a witch.]

Same difference, right? You're like a Harry Potter witch, with the wand.

[He waved his hand briefly, mimicking waving a wand. Yes, he was amused by the use of a wand.]

Totally different. Where'd you get your information?

[She gave an amused snort as she gave a grin as well]

Witches from back home're gross preppy chicks who think they're in charge've everything.

[A beat]

Actually a lot've girls are like that in the wizard world...

[Life, that's where.]

Yeah, it's totally different alright. [A beat.] Well, I knew one who was gross and had the whole 'think they're in charge of everything' thing going for them.

[Just casually insulting Chase.]

[Laughs and puts the wand back in her boot before going to grab a slice of pizza now from the meat lovers and don't mind her as she doesn't ask, just chooses a seat and plops right on down]

My wand's also a phone. Haven't tried it here, but I'd be usin' it for prank calls anyway

[Shrugs and takes a bite of her slice of pizza]

[She didn't have to ask anyway. This was a party, the food was for everyone, early or not. And with that out of the way, Reid flopped back into the chair he'd been sitting in.]

Right. Of course it is. So you actually need that wand for magic?

Not need But if I don't wanna say anything it's easier. Example

[Watch her think of a spell she wants to do real quick]

Stop all the racket, I'll wear a jacket

[Small handswish and she's wearing a jacket over her clothes, looing down to it and blinks, giving a shrug]

It was the first one I could think of.

[Reid wasn't exactly impressed. Okay, maybe he was a little. More so curious and amused, though.]

And do you really have to rhyme it all?

Not really

[She'll grin as she pulls her hand up and in a flash, it'll be a foot.]

Some spells you don't need to, and I've got pretty much unlimited power

[Her foot-hand will go back to normal]

See, that's a lot more impressive. Otherwise with the wand and the rhyming it just looks kind of lame.

[A beat.]

No offense.

Meh none taken

[She gave a dismissive handswish]

So what other kinds of things can you do?

[Couldn't really blame him for being curious.]

Make an evil doppleganger of myself which is really just all the stuff about me that no one likes, lock people in a room or house in general...

[She aimed to pull her wand out at this point as well as her chalkboard to find what she was looking for]

We can see if this works now if you want. Don't laugh it's the way wizards back home.

[Because she's bending that wall at an invisible hinge and as she presses spaces for Reids phone, pressing buttons that only show by lights and says]

Beep boop beepbeep beep ... Boop

[And holds wand to ear like it is a phone and Reids phone should be going off as an alert for him any moment now if things work right.]

[Sorry, but he was going to laugh. A lot. He wasn't even sure about exactly what she was doing because he was laughing so hard. In fact, when his phone started to ring, it took him a few moments to compose himself enough to get it out of his pocket.

Alright, so maybe it wasn't really as funny as he was making it out to be, but he'd been having a really shitty time lately, and he had already been drinking, so. Actually, this was a big sign that he'd already been drinking.]

Yeah?

[Wherever there's a party there's a Pinkie Pie!

She arrives a this one weighed down with cupcakes and various sugary treats, along with a huge bunch of helium balloons, that seem almost to carry her up into the air.]

"Hey everypony! Ready for a party?!"

[It was hard to miss Pinkie Pie when she arrived-not just because she was a bright pink pony, but because of all those balloons.

Reid set his beer aside before pushing himself up out of his chair to go over, ready to help with all of those snacks-which, he has to admit, look really good.]

With all those balloons, I'm surprised you didn't float away on the way here. [He grinned.]

"Nope! That would have taken fifty balloons, I could only find forty." [Pinkie giggles, although she had been a little disappointed at not being able to make a grand entrance.]

"I bought as much as I could carry! I hope it'll be enough."

Well, we wouldn't want you to float away, anyway.

[He laughed.]

Yeah, I'm sure this'll be plenty.

"Oooo, I would! I'm sure I wouldn't float very far and it’d be soooo much fun!" [Pinkie gives a little dance at the thought.]

But that can wait, I wouldn’t want to miss your party! Do you need somepony to start the games?"

Flying's better than floating, but I bet floating's fun, too.

[He'd only done levitating back home, but here he'd been able to fly. Before that time he'd fallen and just about cracked his head open. Yeah, that had been fun.]

The games? What kind of games?

"Well Pin the Tail on the Pony and Charades, and Pass the Parcel and maybe even Apple Bobbing!"

[These are all mainstays of a Pinkie Pie Party!]

[Pin the Tail on Anything was for kids though, wasn't it? And bobbing for apples was more of a Halloween thing, in Reid's experience. Charades could work though, but-]

What's Pass the Parcel?

[Big gasp!]"You don't know what Pass the Parcel is? Oh, you've gotta play it. There's a prize inside and you pass it around and when the music stops you open one sheet at a time and when the music starts you pass it along again. Eventually some pony gets to the prize! Sometimes there's even little prizes in between the wrapping. It's heaps of fun!"

I haven't played party games like that since I was a kid.

[He shrugged. Nowadays all of the games he played at parties usually involved drinking.]

Gotta admit, that sounds pretty cool, though.

[Caleb got there and rose an eyebrow]

You look comfortable

[He laughed and smiled to Reid, not having anything with him because no. Forget that. :|]

[Reid blinked, looking up from the meaningless spot on the floor that he'd been staring at, and then he smiled.]

I was wondering when you'd show up. Help yourself to some beer or something. Balfour made the chicken nuggets; they're good.

[He hadn't expected Caleb to bring anything anyway, no one was really supposed to, only if they'd wanted to.]

[He nodded and smiled, rolling his eyes a bit]

Alright, thanks.

[He moved to grab a beer]

It's always so impressive when you set these parties up so quick.

[Reid shrugged, grinning.]

Lots of practice. I know how to get things done when I put my mind to it.

[Instead of, you know, being lazy like he so often was.]

[Chuckles] Well maybe you should've put this kind of mentality to school.

[ALL THE TEASING.]

And where would the fun be in that?
