“ aye, fair point —- fair point, ” the master nodded his head in agreement, rolling a shrug from his shoulders. the laughter had SUBSIDED, although the grin could still be heard in his voice. “ an acquired taste ! right, right. no, i believe ye’. fer’ th’ record, though, ’m a bloody ATROCIOUS dancer meself. per’aps ‘m capable’a movin’ t’ th’ beat, but by god … ”

calvin rolls his eyes playfully, ‘ CMON ... you can’t be that bad. ’ he argues back lightly. he knows he’s an awful dancer himself but it has never stopped him; he’s all for being the life of the party and making his peers laugh, mikaela is no different. ‘ i think you should show me, then i’ll believe you. ’ he teased with a mischievous smirk.

‘ well, yeah. he’s kinda great. ’ she says it matter-of-factly, like how does this guy not know how great ricky is ?? sammy’s only concerned about what it means for her interactions with other masters - how’s she supposed to get people to do what she wants if she can only sleep with ricky ? she doesn’t doubt she’ll be SATISFIED, but a girl’s gotta do what a girl’s gotta do. sammy giggles along with him at his awful dancing, head shaking slightly. ‘ i dont know how to dance with you if you do that. ’

‘ then i’m glad you’ve found someone you like. ’ calvin smiles. it must be nice to have somebody to trust and rely on in a place like this, to make the whole ordeal that little bit more EASIER. he laughs at her disappointment, his features tugged into a mockingly-hurt impression, ‘ i think i look great. ’ he beams, shimming his shoulders playfully.

“Oof, sorry.” Luci says apologetically, eyebrows knitting together for a moment. “D’you have club soda? You could do soda and lime off of me if you want.” She offers, not wanting the other to miss out just because they didn’t drink.

calvin laughed and shrugged, ‘ sure ... that works! ’ he grinned, ‘ not as hardcore, but it works. you’ll have to show me what to do though. ’

however it was possible, his face brightened even more when the sound of calvin’s laughter BUBBLED from within his chest. a sweet sound, he would admit. you’d swear mikaela was the sun by now. his voice gradually reaching the higher octaves, he spoke, “ bloody ‘ell, you’re not even —- ” … moving to the BEAT ! he’d cut himself off with a rather loud (when was he not LOUD and obnoxious, though ?) burst of LAUGHTER, leaning over and putting his face in his free hand, shoulders continuing to shake with his continued hysterics.

the sight of the other man laughing was INFECTIOUS, calvin’s own laughter ringing around him. he hadn’t smiled this hard, never mind laughed, since he’d arrived at this place. ‘ hey --- at least i tried! ’ he argued back, his lips tugged into a beaming grin. ‘ i think i looked good. it’s an acquired taste. ’

Smirking softly to herself, Luci approaches the first person she sees, bottle of tequila in one hand and a cup of lime wedges in the other. “Body shot?” She asks with a bat of her eyes, her body swaying slightly. “C’mon, it’ll be fun.”

‘ i, uh --- don’t really drink, but you can always do one off me if you like. ’ he offered with a smile. he didn’t have an issue with people drinking around him, it was just a personal CHOICE that made him only stick to one or two drinks whenever he did decide to drink alcohol, and he definitely didn’t want to miss out on the fun just because of that.

mikaela visibly perked up, eyebrows raising. “ absolutely not ! ” okay, maybe that was a lie, and maybe it was a little bit more obvious than what he’d been HOPING.

calvin’s eyebrows raised as he let out a bark of a laugh, ‘ sure, sure... ’ he grinned, nudging his elbow against mikaela’s lightly, ‘ you can admit it, i’m hard to beat. ’ he shimmed his shoulders where he was sat, completely out of rhythm with the music --- he couldn’t dance at ALL, but all he wanted in that moment was to make the other laugh.

mikaela was genuinely glad that the male was enjoying himself —- he DESERVED that much, didn’t he ? “ aye, brilliant ! see, that’s what i like t’ ‘ear, ” he beamed, proceeding to take a sip (that was quickly followed by another) of his drink. “ few more drinks ‘n me love, ‘n i’ll be wantin’ t’ dance too, ” why he said this, he didn’t know. was he already losing himself ? for a typically OUTGOING guy, he wasn’t willing to get up and dance just like that. strangely enough, a good amount of alcohol needed to be in his system.

‘ i can’t convince you to dance with me before that? ’ calvin grinned playfully, his eyebrow quirked. he didn’t know WHY he had the urge to ask that but he didn’t really regret it afterwards. ‘ or are you afraid i’d outshine you? ’

much to his greatest pleasure, calvin accepted his company. lowering himself to sit beside him, a light yet buoyant laugh slipped past his lips. “ aye. indeed, indeed. ‘s a real nice thing, this party is, innit, ” his words weren’t … well, they WEREN’T entirely sloppy. yet. did he WANT to get to that point ? absolutely ! “ ‘ow’re ye’ doin’ ? ‘avin’ a good night ? ”

calvin nodded, his own eyes scanning the scene. people were having FUN, smiling --- it almost felt like a different place to him. ‘ it’s nice, yeah --- i’m surprised. ’ he turned to face the other and offered him a small smile. ‘ i’ve stuffed my face with smores and danced a little, so i’d say i’m having a blast.  ’he probably sounded like a huge KID right now, he thought to himself, the pads of his fingers slightly sticky from smore-making paired with a glass of water and a dorky smile, but he couldn’t find it in himself to care.

movements of her hips are fluid & surprisingly graceful for being drunk with her toes sunk in the sand. she makes a happy little noise when he finally starts dancing, too. ‘ yes, calvin, ’ she cheers, giggling. ‘ aw, you think i’m lovely ? oh, no, ricky knows i’m his. even though i’m not really, not yet. he hasn’t claimed me. but i kinda really want him too, ’ she sighs. ‘ you know ? i know, no i don’t. you’re not what ? but, no, i know that. but still, between you & me it’d be kinda awkward to grind with someone who’s not ricky while i’ve got the plug in my ass, ’ she slurs an explanation at him.

‘ you want him to? ’ he questions as he continues to sway to the music, a slight furrow to his brows. he sometimes considered the idea of being claimed but he didn’t know what to think about it --- it would make his life EASIER, he supposed, with the perks and such that came along with it; yet the idea still scared him slightly. ‘ that’s very true.  i think you better save that for your man --- plus i’m more of a ‘dad dancer’ anyway. ’ he laughs, his awkward movements probably already giving that away.

mikaela set out to enjoy himself tonight. it’d been so long since he’d gotten properly wasted, and tonight was the PERFECT opportunity. particularly lightweight (though he would NEVER admit to it) in the first place, the master was already well on his way. drink in hand, his gaze trailed to the flickering flames that were in his peripheral. sat close by was calvin. immediately, he approached with a slightly more CHIPPER radiance than usual. “ ye’ doin’ good ? sittin’ ou’ ‘ere all on yer’ lonesome —- mind if i join ya’ ? ”

he raised his head at the sound of feet approaching, a small smile teasing his lips at the sight of mikaela. the man had an atmosphere about him, instantly putting calvin at ease. ‘ yeah, sure --- you can join me. ’ he shuffled slightly so the other man would have some room to sit. ‘ you having fun? ’ he asked with a knowing look and a slight smirk; mikaela looked a little BUZZED already and it made calvin chuckle to himself.

‘ shh, shh, shhut up, ’ she chastises the other, grinning dopily anyway. ‘ i’m not gonna fall. i’m an awesome dancer. ’ she reaches to settle hands on the back of the taller boy’s neck, drawing him almost uncomfortably close. ‘ just, like, you can’t grind on me, cause ricky has me wearing a plug, ’ she slurs a little - tmi. ‘ so that’d be kinda awkward. ’

calvin settles a hand on her waist, his eyes rolling at her blatant drunkness but in a fond way --- he can’t help but smile as he lets loose a little, his hips swinging in his own sloppy way, despite his lack of alcohol. her next comment has him barking out a laugh, which surprises even himself. ‘ wow. ’ he chuckles, his eyes crinkled, ‘ as lovely as you are, ricky really doesn’t have anything to worry about. i’m not --- you know ... so i won’t be trying anything. ’

cross-legged and eyebrows furrowed, calvin watched as those around him enjoyed the party. he felt a little conflicted; he had an urge to get up and dance and to stop feeling so sorry for himself, but at the same time something was holding him back --- so instead he cradled his glass of water in his hands and huddled by the bonfire, content with just observing the fun for now.

“I’ve never had a smore so that is something I will definitely be trying.” Amber chuckled. She loved the carefree nature of this event. They were still guards around, but she enjoyed how they could just relax.

‘ never!? ’ he gasped with feigned horror, ‘ i’ll show you, and it will forever change your life. ’ the snack always reminded him of his family, in the earlier days before things turned sour. he pushed the memory aside and plastered a smile to his face, ‘ c’mon, they’ve got to have some stuff around here somewhere. ’

‘ there’s music, but no one’s dancing. why is no one dancing ? ’ words are slightly slurred as sammy pushes herself to standing, brushing sand off her ass absently. it’s pretty clear someone’s hit the tequila pretty hard. ‘ this is my cue, then ? c’mon, wanna dance ? ’

calvin reaches out a hand to steady her elbow, quickly noticing that sammy has probably had one too many. ‘ are you sure you can? ’ he laughs, ‘ because i’m happy to dance with you as long as you don’t fall flat on your face. it ruins my mystique. ’

Amber walked around the beach looking at everything that had been provided and smiled. “Wow, they really went all out with this.” She chuckled looking amazed at the whole set-up. They genuinely had surprised her with how everything was looking and the amount of stuff provided.

‘ i’m tempted to just sit here and stuff my face with smores, to be honest. ’ calvin smiled, finally feeling as if he could let loose a little. it felt a little weird to have such a change in atmosphere, but he was willing to embrace it and enjoy himself while he had the chance to.
