September 29

Sethos biked to the address he was given. A girl asked him to attend a house party. At first he didn't want to go since it was a bit too soon to be partying. After being encouraged by Tighnari to live a little, Sethos decided to go. The Dehya girl seemed nice enough.

He hooked up his bike to a stand and knocked at the door of the mansion. He could see lights flashing in different colors through the windows. Some party song was blaring loudly.

The girl that invited him to the party answered the door.
"You made it kid! Come in, chill."
With that the girl walked in.

Sethos closed the door behind him and wandered his way into the house. There were people grinding on each other in the hallway and people spilling out a different room.
Sethos took a peak inside and saw people cheering on a guy with orange hair who was downing bottle after bottle of alcohol.

A guy with short purplish hair was recording and snickering while another guy with black and teal hair tried to get the bottle away from the one that was chugging.

Sethos decided to go the other direction and found his way to the kitchen.
There were less people there but it was dirtier. Sethos grabbed a can of coke and a lollipop(which he quickly threw away after taking a lick and realizing it was an edible) and wandered around a little more.

If he was being honest, Sethos was scared of all the drunk people around him. He was about to go upstairs but he heard a few noises and he decided against it.

He made his way back to the chugging guy and found the room now full of people dancing. The guy was nowhere to be found but the other two were still there.

The one with blue hair was on his phone with his feet up. The one with black and teal hair was chatting with a someone with a long blonde braid.
Sethos took a deep breath and made his way over. Make friends. You can do it. They'll like you... Gramps said you have a nice personality...

"Hello hello, I'm Sethos! Uhm... how's the ÆÆ-party? So far?" Sethos choked on his drink halfway through his sentence when the blue haired boy looked at him. He felt like he was staring into his soul. It was creepy.

"Hey. Scaramouche." The boy-Scaramouche-dragged his feet off the couch beside him to let Sethos sit.
Sethos smiled. He chose a nice person to start a conversation with.

"Party's lame. I've seen better." Scaramouche shrugged and started to go back to his phone.

"Oh. Uh I don't really... I wouldn't know... kinda my first party..." Sethos admitted.

"Oh? Ohhh you're a first-year. Cool." Scaramouche then smirked.

"You're not tipsy yet huh."

"No! Why does everyone think I'm gonna drink! I'm only 18..."

"Pussy."

Sethos frowned at his new acquaintance.

"I'll do it if you do it. I'm 21 but I'm not a big drinker." Scaramouche shrugged.

"Alright... I guess.." Sethos took a deep breath as Scaramouche led Sethos to the kitchen.

Scaramouche grabbed two red solo cups. Half punch, half tequila.(according to the bottles on the table) He handed one to Sethos and drank his cup immediately.

Sethos was shocked and drank his slower but he gagged.

"Ew! What the frick?! Why does it taste like that!?" Sethos coughed but finished the cup.

"Well nobody told you to drink if that slow." Scaramouch shrugged and tossed his cup on the floor.

Sethos was about to do the same but he just set it down.
