thenearshore | Sleepover!

Who: Forrest, all of his teenage CR, and CR of that CR
What: Giant sleepover log
When: The night of June 21
Where: Lakshmi's temple
Warnings: Cuteness overload

[Forrest has never had a sleepover before, so he's pretty excited to host one at his temple. He sends out invitations ahead of time to everyone he can think of, letting them know to bring pajamas, snacks, and even a friend or two if they want. He's clad in a frilly pink nightgown with ribbons and bows for the occasion, and he's temporarily converted Lakshmi's audience chamber into a space where the guests can all party and sleep. It was already mostly full of pillows to begin with, so all he had to do was move some more in and set up some tables for snacks and things. One of the tables conspicuously contains all of his beauty supplies, because like hell is Forrest hosting a slumber party without makeovers. Anyone who shows even the slightest bit of interest will get their makeup, hair, or nails done. Soft music and the scent of lotus blossoms drift through the air, creating the perfect atmosphere for everyone to relax and enjoy themselves.]

((OOC: If you've got a teenager that Forrest has talked to more than once, assume he invited them. Friends of friends are totally welcome as well. Everyone can feel free to put up their own toplevels, and everybody tag everybody and mingle to your heart's content!))

[He likes to think he's considerate, but if that's the case.

Excuse him for a minute or two as he fetches a bucket of water and proceeds to pour it on Sora.]

[OKAY- That'll work!

Sora immediately sputters as soon as the water hits him. He sits up so abruptly he smacks his head right on the "roof" of the table.]

WHUAA--!?! AHHH!!

[Cold water. Pain. Everything. Sucks.]

What the heck!!!

[Lavi holds back a laugh because yeah, that must've hurt.]

You okay?

[He'll immediately adopt an innocent expression as he checks Sora.]

[Sora is sputtering and shivering as he nurses a nice big lump that’s starting to form on his head. As soon as he can get his bearings enough he looks up at the stranger and squints his eyes.]

Yeah, but what’s the big idea?!

[What are you, a bully?]

Just making sure you're still alive.

[While at the same time being bratty.

Not a bully.]

You wouldn't wake up earlier so I had to resort to more drastic measures. [Hence him pouring water on you.]

You sure have a funny way of checking.

[Sora suddenly shivers and shakes his head, little droplets of water going everywhere like he's a puppy.]

We'll I'm up now! Sheesh!!

Sorry, sorry.

[At least he's genuine?

Also, rude, don't shake your head like a dog, Sora. But now Lavi's throwing a towel at Sora.]

[It smacks him. Sora grumbles and makes a face.]

Thanks, I guess...

[A sheepish grin.]

Well, splashing water on you seemed to be a lot better than my initial idea.

[Sora blinks. He had another, worse-er idea?]

What was your initial idea??

[He begins to scrub his head with the towel.]

Sticking your hand in a bowl of water.

[It would've been interesting to see.

Lavi has also been spending too much time on the internet.]

[Sora stares at Lavi, squinting his eyes a little.

Okay. He's enough of a teenage boy to know exactly what that trick does.

...

After a moment he bursts out laughing.]

Okay!! I'm really glad you didn't do that!!

[He grins.]

Like I said, lesser of two evils.

[At least that way, Sora wouldn't be forced to experience anything humiliating.]

What're you doing sleeping under a table, anyway?

[Sora looks up at the table like he forgot it was there for a second.]

Uhh. I think I just passed out.

[He tends to do that in random places when he's really tired. He moves to crawl out from under it.]

What's your name anyway? I've never seen you around here before. You know my brother?

[He means Forrest.]

Brother?

[A look of confusion paints his face because he doesn't know who he's referring to before he shakes his head.]

Ah, the name's Lavi, and I was invited here by Kairi.

Forrest! The one who owns this temple!

[Lavi, you gotta know who's temple this is!]

Ah, Kairi invited you? I'm Sora. It's nice to meet you!

[You know, apart from getting water dumped on him.]

Ah, no wonder.

[Well, now he knows.

He grins.]

Nice to meet you, Sora.

[Despite the wet hair and the shiver he's getting from it, he smiles.]

Are you having a fun time? I know there's lots of girly stuff here but still.

The girly stuff doesn't really bother me.

[Not as much as it is to tease people with.]

But it is pretty fun here.

That's good.

[He grins.]

So how do you know Kairi?

[She's a lot like Sora, adopting friends wherever, so he's got an idea. But it's something to talk about.]

[Lavi is quiet for a moment, thinking.]

We've met at the beach party.

[And from there they just kept on meeting.]

[He nods. Sounds like something typical of her.]

And now she's dragging you to girly sleepovers. Sounds like she likes being friends with you!

Well, she's pretty fun to hang out with, too.

[Sora laughs.]

Too true. I'm glad she's making lots of friends.

So are you a shinki or a god?

She doesn't seem like the type who would have trouble with that.

[A blink before he grins.]

Take a guess.
