Isaac Rhodes, 18, human senior at Havensdale High, senior class president. What can I do for you?

“Look at you,” he beamed, twirling her with one free hand as Isaac smiled at his dear friend. “Of course, you were going to be Prom Queen. That crown looks perfect on you, by the way.”

“This drink tastes like…” She paused, taking another large sip from the cup. “raspberries? I like it! Like, I really like it. And I like this song too.“ Maybe it was the relief of being done with prom and back in shoes she could walk in. Or maybe it was the realization that a high school party wasn’t terrible, but Blair was having a good time. Or, enough of a good time to want to dance.

“Raspberries? Sounds delightful,” he laughed, though he was still nursing plain lemonade from the array of mixers in the kitchen. “You look like you’re having a really good time, Blair. Feeling the Prom magic?”

[walks into the kitchen and tosses down a bag of ice with all the grace and enthusiasm of a football player tossing down the winning ball] Is it considered a faux-pas to be late to your own party? [he announces loudly to the room, badly butchering the French words while he’s at it]. If so–carpe diem! I-I’m not sure I’m using that right.

Buuuut whatever. We’ve got ice again, who wants a drink?!

[ still annoyingly sober because he’s that kind of guy, but riding the high of being Prom King actually! ] Steven! Please, please, we’ve all been entertaining ourselves, don’t you worry. By the way, thank you so much for hosting us, the party’s looking great!

[irhodes-scholar]

I cannot believe that just happened, ohmygoodness-- thank you, guys! Truly, I don’t deserve you folks.

Thank you, I mean it. Now let’s party, huh?

re: winning Prom King

he’s standing on stage, and when he hears Ruby’s name called, he lets out a genuine shout of excitement, almost entirely missing his own name, which forces him to pull back and look back at Ivy and Ryan in surprise.

“Me?!”

and as much as he really doesn’t believe this was something he had earned, Isaac can’t deny the euphoric and humbled smile spreading across his face, and he’s even happier to accept the crown next to Ruby, hugging her tight.

Isaac, grinning wide, takes in the moment, thankful to everyone who had gotten him there, and he even tries to look back to smile at Greg who’s there along with him in the Prom Court, but Greg is preoccupied with being in the same vicinity as Bonnie, it seems. not everything is going perfectly, and he still needed to ask him what the hell was going on with that shove earlier, so he makes a mental note to give him some space, and find him again in a bit. til then, he’ll relish in this moment with the rest of the school. he actually won!

Can’t vote for myself? Psssh! Who am I supposed to vote for? Leo? Greg? Laughable. Whatever, Mr M. I have better places to be than at this lame attempt at a party. Peace!

@havensdalestarters·

[ approaching him at the exit, hands in his pockets and a casual smile on his face ] Hey there, Logan, heading out so soon? Before you go, I just had a couple questions for you, if you don’t mind. Firstly, don’t you think it’s a rather disrespectful to the Prom Committee and the students who played fair to attempt to cheat? And then to bow out so disgracefully to Mr. McDonald? Who is only doing his job? And then, on top of all of that, you’re leaving Bonnie on her own. Bonnie, who you asked to Prom, who you made a commitment to, who doesn’t deserve that. Do you think that’s alright? [ that friendly smile hasn’t left his face this whole time ] I suppose everyone has differing opinions, hm? Like, how I, for example, think magic is just a little bit antiquated.

See you at the after party!

greg-porter·:

I… I mean, yeah! Obviously she cares about people and the Earth and- and- [ that ‘you’ however certainly shut him up, especially teamed up with the shoulder grab ] … Okay.

I hear you. Really? I mean, yeah, okay. We can- I can do that. [ sighs ] Thank you, Isaac.

Okay? Okay, good, great, we’re getting somewhere.

[ a firm squeeze of the arm ] Anything, man. Anything. Now let’s learn some damn magic.

[irhodes-scholar]

blair-fisher·:

I feel like you sound smart most of the time. Smarter than most people, at least.

Stop it. You’re going to win. A dance? Um. Yeah. We can dance. Love to dance. I’m great at the whole dancing thing. Do it all the time.

Anyone ever tell you you know just how to flatter a man?

It’s an honor just to be nominated, Blair. Alright, let’s see those move on the dance floor, then shall we? You may just give me a run for my money.

jennythe-good·:

I know, right? We could barely get him to sign up to chaperone and now here he is a honorary committee member, princess date and like, the full kilt. The spirit of Nessie is in the room tonight.

Of course, of course and I have several colour coordinated schedules and to do list dedicated to it just in case. [ giggles ] Aw, stop. Thank you, Isaac. That means a lot coming from you. Me too! I mean, who hasn’t been excited for prom since middle school, right? And now it’s here, yay! Um… Ohmygosh, I haven’t even thought about it. I mean, the usual stuff. Dancing, photos, popcorn. Oh! Actually, I would totally love to get some fun, proppy, photobooth pictures with um, you? For the memories.

What is it the kids say? I feel Nessie in this Chili’s tonight?

I would expect nothing less from you, Jenny. Oh, you’re going to go so far, it’s truly so exciting to watch. Exactly right-- this is a very special night for all of us. Even the cynics of Havensdale High can’t deny the pure electricity in this room. [ beaming as he clutches his chest ] I would love nothing more than that. Let’s do it! I call the feather boa.

[irhodes-scholar]

its-jess-bitches·:

Her and Corey, remember. The big couple of the night. Oh, how we’ll all swoon. [ grins ] Not nearly enough in my own lifetime, babe. Not nearly enough. Please. I’m all about the fun.

… Do you wanna know a secret, Isaac?

Of course, of course. Oh, I bet they’ll look so great together. Well, that’s what good friends are for-- you know you can count on me.

What’s up, Jess?

[irhodes-scholar]

danny-mcr·:

Awesome, man. I hope you have a really great time tonight. Make some memories, share the love. Just, like, remember that this might be one of the last times you ever get to hang out with your class like this. I think that’s why there’s so many cameras.

Exactly! Thank you, thank you. I know it wasn’t that long ago but this suit makes me feel about a billion years old. High school me definitely would not approve. Yeah? Aw, that makes sense. You are the man in charge, to be fair. Good and responsible… That’s me. Speaking of- definitely do not tell them I said this- you’re gonna keep an eye out on Carrie and Ruby tonight, right?

When you put it like that suddenly I’m about to get all sentimental and whatnot.

You look like a dapper young man, on top of his game, ready to take on the world. High school you is out of his mind. And tonight you get to share in my sacred duties. Not all men can handle this responsibility, Danny. [ smiles earnestly ] Of course, I am. You know your family has a place in my heart.

[irhodes-scholar]

jennythe-good·:

Right? I’m literally swooning! Plus, Mr MacDonald brought a date and she is basically a real life princess. I think this prom is really making magic happen tonight. Or, um, you know. Not magic magic, just… It’s great.

You think? I mean, I hope so! After this summer, I’m basically only gonna have Yale on the brain so this is a nice break from that. Not that I’m not totally excited for college. And nervous. Yale is my dream school which I’ve like, probably told you a thousand times before. Is that what everyone’s calling it? I love that. It was awesome! Cooper really went all out for us. He’s like, literally the sweetest boy that ever walked the Earth and I’m only like, a little mad I can’t even warn him against hurting my bestie. He’s the perfect boyfriend to Juliette. Yeah, you’re right. This really is fun, I’m glad we’re all here together. 

A date? I can’t believe he’s showing us up on Prom night of all nights, but I can’t say I’m not delighted by him.

As long as you stay on top of college applications, you wont need to sweat it at all. You’re a catch, Jenny Moore, any university would be lucky to have you, Yale included. That’s awfully sweet of him, I’m so glad you get to have this experience start off so well! Anything you wanna do in particular tonight?

[irhodes-scholar]

its-jess-bitches·:

Exactly! I mean, senior Prom is not every other day, you know? Even Ruby McReid isn’t immune to the charm of it all. It’ll probably be a double door entrance and everything… Of course I did. She’s our girl.

Hell yeah you would. [ winks and takes his arm ] I’d never miss a chance to have my way with a future prom king. This’ll be something to tell my, like, great-great-great grandchildren about.

My thoughts exactly. Ugh, I’m just so excited to see her.

Jess, has anyone ever told you that you just a delight? You flatter me way too . much, now come on-- let’s have fun.

[irhodes-scholar]

greg-porter·:

She is, she is a catch… And I mean, I knew she might have a date, you know? If she wanted, obviously. Who wouldn’t ask her? But he asked her. Yeah, you can say that again because as Jess already pointed out, I don’t have [ throws his hands dramatically up ] ‘magic hands’.

Aw man, do you think she’s looking for a good GPA? I- I don’t even think I know what that means. This is hopeless. [ groans ] I appreciate you trying to cheer me up but I’ve been on Netflix, Isaac. We’re basically living in the magician’s like, Renaissance.

No one. Cares. About magic. At least not someone like Bonnie Brightman. She cares about people and saving the Earth, and I think deep inside-- you.

[ takes him by the shoulders ] We are not giving up, do you hear me? If it’s really that important pull up Youtube. It’s time to learn a trick.

[irhodes-scholar]

cmcreid-warriorprincess·:

It has always looked like a danger game and to this day, I don’t know how Jess ever did it. Maybe she fell after the pictures got taken though… We may never know. Even without the acrobatics, the after party’ll still be fun. 

Thank you, thank you, I appreciate all you do. Yeah! I mean, they’re not. I think… I don’t know. It’s Robbie’s mom’s environmentally friendly car which is great but so not Faye Montgomery’s style. I was thinking she would have showed up in a carriage with twelve white horses, you know? Take up all the parking spaces.

I think people hold up your legs while it’s done? It’s very confusing, honestly.

Stranger things have happened in Havensdale, wouldn’t you agree? No, it doesn’t seem Faye’s style at all. But if they’re enjoying each other’s company then that’s really all they can ask for. I’m sure they’re great together!

[irhodes-scholar]

blair-fisher·:

Okay there, mister philosopher-king.

I should probably let you go practice your speech for when you win prom king. Or like, let you go dance with your adoring fans. Or whatever.

I like to sound smart every now and then.

Nah, I won’t win. But what I would love is a dance with my friend. How about it?

[irhodes-scholar]

blair-fisher‌:

Right. Of course. Because I really want all of the memories. That’s really the main goal, isn’t it?

I…You too. You really deserve it. Like, a lot?

Memories imply that in the moment, you’re living.

Thank you so much, Blair. Trust me, the night has barely started, but I’m truly enjoying it all. It’s so cool!
