[ SLEEPOVER!!!!!!!!!

Athena has been excited for this for a few days now, and has been trying to get Ryuko to be as psyched as she is, but that sure didn't work.

Either way, a sleepover is happening at their place! There's five mattresses laid out on the living room floor (She's not sure how many are coming but she borrowed five from the gym, anyway), already set up with their own sheets. The pillows are stacked by the wall—there's really a lot of them—and some blankets by a small coffee table. The mattresses are pretty big that it could fit 3-4 people to sleep on them.

There's a projector sitting on the living room too, just in case people brought movies with them, conveniently facing the wall. (Probably just link the CereVice to it and it'll show whatever's playing on the CereVice, too.) OR IF YOU HAVE A KARAOKE APP...

Athena brought in some desserts from the cosplay cafe, so there's a lot of pastries. From three different kinds of cake (chocolate, strawberries and creme, and blueberry cheesecake); to red velvet cupcakes; to a buttload of macarons of all sorts of flavours; there really are a lot of sweets. if you arrive early, you might realise that it's just sweets, a bunch of chips, and soda bottles set on the table.

Where's the real food? Archer said he'll have Saber bring it with her, so that's a thing! And Athena thought they could order some delivery, too. Just so everyone gets to eat something they want. Oddly enough, there's also a plate of salt and lime on the table. Hmm, what for?

Well, no one has to look that hard enough for the reason. There's a couple of bottles of tequila and some shot glasses badly hidden in one of the cupboards, so pretty much everybody can see those. If anyone wants to start body shots drinking with people, then Athena won't stop them. It's a party! And law school gets just as crazy sometimes. Lord knows how much Athena wanted to try and socialise with her fellow budding lawyers, but was just awkward to do so. Thankfully, she's much better at breaking out of her shell now, otherwise, this party wouldn't even be happening. If there's anyone who tries drinking and they look like they shouldn't be (LOOKING AT YOU, MABEL), then Athena will come over and scold them like a mom.

So what else are you waiting for? Come in and take off your shoes, and make yourself comfortable! The bathroom is just down the hall, if you want to change into your jammies.

Let's get this thing started! ]

[ ooc: feel free to make top-levels for certain activities. just mark them with what the activity is in the subject! of course, feel free to set up different prompts for your character, too. post as many activities as you want. the more the merrier!

to anyone not invited but want to tag in: seriously, go ahead! feel free to have your character complain about the noise or check in on the girls if your name is phoenix wright or simon blackquill. there are some girls who athena didn't invite because she doesn't know them, but if they know anyone in the party then they might have been invited by that friend! IF THERE'S A WILL THERE'S A WAY!!! All the ladies and Zura get in! ]

Well... you see, the two teachers weren't officially dating. Plus, there was a huge age gap between the two of them. It was really surprising because nobody expected those two to be dating because of that.

Everyone was really surprised when I showed them the picture to the point where they wondered how I would get such an amazing photo. Well, they basically found out that they shouldn't underestimate my investigative skills. But in any case, we all knew it was going to be difficult to publish an article like that... it wouldn't be hard to get our teacher's permission, honestly, since he's a rather laid back kind of guy, but we could have gotten into trouble by the other teachers. Not to mention the fact that we didn't get permission from the subjects of said photo before we printed it.

But we did manage to go off with a bang by releasing the paper during the Beauty Pageant! Ahh, we almost got into trouble, but I managed to smooth things over.

They managed to actually get together in the end and the newspaper actually did well that day, but I haven't written anything as good since then. [Mostly because of the trouble they ran into afterwards. . .] Ahaha, sorry, that really must have been a boring life story. It was just the most recent achievement I could think of.

[psycholawgy]

[ She totally sees Inaba in a different light, now. Having great investigative skills is one thing, but she feels that Inaba's skills also "great". In quotation marks because it means that while Inaba is smart, Athena also thinks that she blackmails people or tries to manipulate them to get what she wants.

WHICH IS NOT BAD AT ALL. ]

So? How did you get the picture, anyway?

[ You can see the spark of curiosity in her eyes. ]

[dereban]

That's a se~cret.

[She grins wide, looking rather triumphant. Inaba never told anybody when she took the picture, so she's definitely not going to tell anybody now.]

It was a really good picture, though. Almost like one you'd see in those famous magazines.

[psycholawgy]

[ Athena's definitely been caught by her hook. She wants to see that picture now. ]

Okay, okay. Do you have a copy of that article. Let's see it!

[dereban]

Yeah, I should have it... just give me a moment.

[She takes out her bag, laptop and all, and opens it -- going through her folders and finding it. At least Inaba is organized enough to have all the StuCS Gazette files in an organized folder by date.]

Ah, here it is. Look.

[It's titled as the "StuCS Gazette: Special Cultural Festival Edition!" and the picture has a middle aged man holding hands with a young in her twenties woman. The angle of the photo is perfect, and it's obvious that the photo was taken in secret since they're not looking directly at the camera.

But they seem to be happy, at least...]

[psycholawgy]

Woah!

[ She leans in closer to the screen to get a better look at it. ]

It really does look scandalous, doesn't it?!

[dereban]

Right? [There's an enthused smile on her lips as she swings her hands over her head.]

That article really surprised everyone. the social studies teacher Tanaka and the Japanese history teacher Hinata, having their hands clasped together at a cafe...

[psycholawgy]

So? So? What happened next? You can't just end your story like that, you know.

[ TELL HERRRRRR ]

[dereban]

Well, nothing much happened after we distributed them. I managed to smooth things over and thankfully the two of them made it official and got together, which was a relief, to say the least. That's pretty much it for that story, really.

[psycholawgy]

Wow! So you ended up being a matchmaker! That's really cool. I wish I could do something like that.

[dereban]

Ah, yeah. I used to actually try to help get two people in our club together... but I'm not certified to be a matchmaker anymore, honestly. It'll only cause complications.

[psycholawgy]

[ She has a feeling that she shouldn't ask any further, so she leaves the topic at that. ]

Did you guys have sleepovers or outings in your club?

[dereban]

Yeah. The sleepovers were usually held at my place since I had the biggest house out of the five of us. And sometimes we had outings for article research.

[psycholawgy]

Oh, I'm so jealous. Outings are so much fun!!

[ Not that she's had a lot. But she's done a lot of travelling. Close enough! ]

[dereban]

That's true; they are fun. Maybe we could have one sometime.

[psycholawgy]

Are there even mountains here?

Or beaches...?

[dereban]

I don't know. But you don't have to go to a mountain or a beach to have an outing, I think.

[psycholawgy]

Where would you go?

[dereban]

Me? [She points to herself with a baffled look on her face before placing her hand under her chin, deep in thought.]

Probably... an electronics store?

[psycholawgy]

[ She blinks curiously, as she cocks her head to a side. ]

That's an outing?

[dereban]

It could be. [...Probably. She's a nerd.]

I don't think the place matters much as long as you get to hang out with other people.

[psycholawgy]

I imagined outings to be kind of like a long trip from home.

[dereban]

The computer store is definitely a long trip from home. Definitely.

[psycholawgy]

... If you sound sure of it, then okay.

[ She initially sounds dejected, but she perks up straight away. ]

Then... maybe we can go to a tech shop some time. How's that sound?

[dereban]

Sure, I wouldn't mind. I actually work there, so I get discounts.

[She looks so proud to say that.] Although I never get to see any of the actual tech when I'm working since I'm all the way down at the Holo section.
