Costume Party (( U Know Who You Are))

[aggielover123]

Morgan woke to the sound of rain pounding out her window at six o’ clock. Grinning at the clock she realized that it was the twenty fifth, the day of her party. Jumping up she yelled for an elf and then handed it a list of things to go buy and she got the other two to clean. She on the other hand was writing out letters to all of her friends and some others inviting them to come. She had already invited a bit of people, but was doing last minute extra just incase. As she wrote she wondered what everyone would wear. She hadn’t really thought about costumes to much, just that she would wear her old Aphrodite costume and leave her hair down. She remembered her friend Leah had said she was going to be a diva and Amelia a rock star but only a few others had told her. Morgan was wondering now if she should change to something a bit more in place like a muggle punk or something like that.

Frowning she knew she wouldn’t have enough time to go and buy a hole other costume. Calling her owl into the room she tied the letters on there and then sent the owl off to deliver the massages. Grinning as time went by as she set everything up she saw the clock hit eight. She had said whenever after eight and seeing the time she knew she needed to go get ready. Running up stairs she jumped hurriedly into the shower and washed her self, she noticed that cleaning all day by hand actually made you tired, which made her feel sorry for muggles. Slipping her robe on she towel dried her hair and then brushed out all of the tangles. Drying it with air this time she curled it up into bouncy curls on the top of her head and then slipped into her white dress. Adding the brown belt around her and then another crossed over her chest she grinned at her reflection.

“Not bad!” she told herself happily. Grabbing her makeup she added a small bit of mascara and eye liner and then slipped on some really odd looking sandals that she had gotten her mother to magically add a heel to ages ago. Walking around the room she picked up all of her stuff and was about to make her bed when she heard someone knock on the door down stairs. Slipping her robe over her costume incase the person wasn’t from the party she walked down stairs after yelling that she was coming. Unlocking the door she swung it open, wondering who it would reveal.

[Cougar Farmer R7]

Cougar woke up that morning to the sound of sizzling. He leaned up and looked around. He then realized he was in a boarding house, and his dad was cooking Bacon and eggs and what not for breakfast. Groaning, Cougar rolled out of bed and went to his and his dad private bathroom. He was glad his dad decided on making one private so he wouldn't ever have to wait on any of the residence. He got a shower and started heading back to his room when he heard a loud bang. He ran to the kitchen and looked in to see to of the senior residence fighting over some toast while dad tried to assure them that he'd make more. Cougar smiled at his dad and vice versa. That was always happening between them. Cougar started walking back up to his room when he heard a cat-call. He stopped and looked around to see one of the younger, prettier residence looking at him and smiling. Cougar had forgotten all he was wearing was a towel. Cougar smiled and winked at her as he continued to his room. The woman was laughing as she went down the stairs

Cougar pulled on an Under Armour shirt and compression short just to use as underclothes for his costume. He then Ran Up to the attic to find his costume. He took a muggle lint roller to it and decided against putting it on until he was almost tp the party. He went back downstairs and grabbed a bite to eat. He then told his dad he was going to the outskirts of London. He'd be back probably tomorrow. Cougar took his costume in his arms and went jogging to the destination.

About 400 yards from the house Cougar slipped on his costume. They'll never let me live this down Cougar thought. He stared walking toward the house with a skin tight suit that looked like and American Mountain Lion. With his longish hair Cougar had to slick it and dye it dirty blonde to match a Cougar's But in the end from about 100 yards away if Cougar was walking on all fours you would think him a cougar. Cougar decided he would do just that he got down on all fours and knocked on the door he waited for some one to answer and when she did he let out a shrill roar and started to leap on her.

[aggielover123]

Falling backword as somthing hit her Morgan screamed. Wondering what in the heck was going on. Having no idea what to do she felt herself hit the floor hard. "Ouch!" she screamed again. Kicking and slapping her hands and feet as hard as she could she wondered how long she would be doing this until Cougar realized that it took only a minute for her to realize it was him. She had recognized the small sound that had escaped fomr his moth before h e had actually roared. Hearing her shoes break in the process of kicking she groaned. "Dang it! You made me break my shoe!" she said knowing she had just blown her cover.
Lifting herself off the ground she moved a few feet a way form Cougar before fully standing up.

"You know if I wans't in such a good mood I would probably kill you right now, but then my parents would have to find out about the party and then I'd be killed so we just leave it this conversation. Walking unevenly to the kitchen she threw her broken shoe away, not feeling like telling her mom what happened so she'd fix it. Throwing the other away as well she decided that they didn't wear shoes any way. Turning towards Cougar as she arrived back at the entry way ( the room in which the door was that's what we call it here anyway) she said, "What kind of music is good for this? I don't listen to the kind of music every one else does!"

Pulling her collection she found that she only had one wizard band, and that was the Weird Sisters. "Do you know if anyone listens to Snowpatrol or Audioslave?" she asked him again naming her two favorite bands, "Or do you even know who they are?"


((I couldn't think of anything to write, but yours sure was a good post! lol))

[Maryn Livley]

Maryn shook her head at her brother. “No.” She was sitting at the edge of Nate’s bed in the hospital. Nate didn’t look that much different from when Maryn first saw him at the hospital. He had tubes coming from all over him and he was very pale, but he still had his hair. This was something Nate was happy about. Nate leaned forward to look at his sister. “But, Maryn..” He started. Maryn shook her head. “Nathan I am here because I love you and I want to be with you.” Maryn said calmly. “I don’t need to go to that party. I’m going to stay here and be with you.” Maryn explained to his brother. “You’re going.” Someone said entering the room. Maryn’s eyes met with mothers. “Hey mom.” Nate said calmly. “Hey baby. How are you feeling?” She asked taking a seat in the chair by his bed. He smiled. “Good. So, Maryn has to go?” He asked with bright eyes. Nate was very glad Maryn was there for him, but he wanted her to get out. He wanted her to just have fun being Maryn and Nate knew that this included the party. “Yepp.” Isa said eyeing Maryn. Maryn smiled at her mother. “Ok, mom your job as a parent is to refuse to let me go. Not make me go.” She said laughing. Nate did too. “Maryn I want you to go have fun and so does Nate. You’re going, I’ll stay with Nate.” He mother finished the discussion. “Fine.” Maryn agreed.

Maryn did want to go to the party, but it was just weird leaving Nate. After all, she had missed him all school year. Their mother had left hours before so Maryn was left thinking about what she would be for the party. It was a couple days away, but she had no idea. Nate looked at Maryn in her trance. ‘Wondering what you should be? It’s a costume party right?” Maryn nodded. “Yes, it is at Morgan’s house.” She continued. “And she is?” Nate asked. “Hufflepuff in my year.” Maryn answered. Nate nodded. Maryn had sent him so many Hogwarts books over the years; Nate knew all that information as if he were a wizard. So, of course he knew what Hufflepuff was. “Cool.” He replied. “So what should I be?” She asked Nate. He shook his head. “I don’t know.” He said calmly. Maryn laughed. “If you want me to go to the party so bad you atleast have to help me find a costume. Nathan laughed. “Agreed.”

It was the day of the party and Maryn had already picked out her costume. Nathan totally agreed on it and Maryn was glad. She had gone into Diagon Alley to look for it just to waste time, but eventually she found something she really liked. Maryn slipped it on and came back into the room to show Nate. He whistled. “So, what do you think?” She asked fidgeting with the flower in her hair. “You look great. Plus, you didn’t take forever to get ready.” Maryn laughed at Nate’s comments. “Thanks.” She said. Maryn then walked over to the mirror. Her brown hair was down in loose curls and red flower in her hair. Maryn was wearing gold eye shadow that looked very pretty with the outfit. “Nock, nock.” Someone said entering the room. Maryn smiled. “Hey dad.” She and Nate said in unison. “Hey you Nate. Maryn you look beautiful.” He commented on her costume. She nodded. “Thanks dad.” Their father then turned to Nate. “Nate, your mother will be over shortly to stay with you.” Nathan smiled. “Ok, Maryn here’s the game plan.” Her father started. “I’m driving you home. Now, Morgan’s house is on the outskirts of London, yes?” She nodded. “Ok, then when you get home, you will take the Floo Network to Nancy’s house and she can drive you since that’s near where she lives. Maryn nodded. “And you can spend the night with her.” Maryn smiled again. “Good.” Kenneth then looked at Nate. “You be good now.” He laughed leaving the room. “Maybe.” Nathan joked. Maryn waved at him. “I’ll miss ya.” She said blowing a kiss and leaving the room. “Have fun.” He said to the empty room.

Half an hour later Maryn at Nancy’s house. She smiled at her aunt as she came out of the Network. “Oh it’s you.” Nancy said cheerfully. Maryn smiled. “Oh, you look gorgeous. Nancy laughed. Just then, the twins April and Jamie walked in. “Hey guys.” She said hugging them. “Ok you three.” Nancy said smiling. “Let’s hit the car.” Maryn led the two little ones out. Only ten minutes later the car stopped outside of Morgan’s house. “Thanks Nancy.” Maryn thanked her aunt. “You have your phone right?” Nancy asked. Maryn held up her muggle cell phone. “Good. Call me when you are ready, but don’t make it too late.” Maryn nodded and left the car. She walked up to Morgan’s house. Maryn hoped everyone liked her red and black Spanish dress. She knocked on the door, but then decided o open it herself. “Hello?” She said closing it.

((Ok, this is Maryn costume. ))

[aggielover123]

Grinning as Maryn walked in and closed the door MOrgan fake sighed. "Thank good ness! I am not alone with this beast they call a cougar anymore!" she said in mock agony, hoping Cougar knew she was kidding. "OOh, I love your costume! What is it though?" Morgan said, liking the way it looked, but having no idea what Maryn was supposed to be. Many questions for Maryn came rushing through Morgan's head at once because she had no idea what kind of music or food to have so she had gotten everything. "What's good party music because I don't think I have any of it!" Picking up her music case again she pulled out all of her favorite artists and ended up with zero wizard artists. Her list was of:

Audioslave
Snowpatrol
Daniel Powter
Rihanna
Killers
A Fire Inside (AFI)
From First To Last (FFTL)
My Chemical Romance (MCR)
and her only country one was Tim McGraw

Laying them all out on the ground and putting the others beside them she asked Cougar and Maryn what to play.

[janetkerkman]

Leah woke up a 8:45. She looked at her calender and saw the little note. Morgan's costume party! Leah sat up and rubbed her eyes. Slowly they focused and Leah went down stairs. She saw bacon and pankaces layed out for her. Next to it was a note.

Sugar,
Kyle, Kayla and I went out to Diagon Alley to shop around some. Use the Floo Powder to go to the costume party. We'll be back soon.
Love,
Mommy

"Uhh!! She treats me like a little girl, writing Mommy." Leah said while eating her pankace and bacon. When she was done she walked upstairs to get her costume on. She put on some muggle eye liner and red lipstick to give her the true punk look. She put her hair all the way up, and left some strands of hair around her face. Leah smiled at her self in the mirror and went down stairs again. She went by the fireplace and grabbed the Fllo powder that was in a bowl. "Morgan Collin's house!" Leah said, unsure is she did it right.

She appered in Morgan's house, and saw a boy, a girl, and Morgan choosing out round things. Leah walked over to them and got a closer look. "Hi Morgan, what are these things?" Leah asked while picking up the round things carefully, not knowing if they would brake or not. It would be very rude if she broke it. Leah examined it closer and wondered what the were.

[aggielover123]

"Oh hey Leah!" Morgan said as she popped out of Morgan's fire place. " They are muggle CD's. I like to use them because they look cooler than the music crystals that most people buy. I am just trying to figure out what to listen too for right now. My friend Amelia said she would bring music but she isn't here yet and I have no idea what to put on!" Grinning as Leah picked one up Morgan saw that it was one of her discards, American Hi-fi. She only liked two songs and the cd, and they were 'Flavor of the Week and Rescue". Seeing as everyone els ehad shown their costumes Morgan took her robe off to reveal her own. "Is this good?" she asked, twirling around twice, the second time was mainly because she had had fun the first time.

Picking a Daniel Powter cd up she pulled out the player and plugged it into the plug that had been hidden behind their couch. Grinning as the lyrics came on Morgan sang a long as Bad Day went through. Grinning as her favorite part came on she wondered if she was the only one that listened to him. "Do you guys listen to any muggle bands?" she asked aloud.

[Maryn Livley]

Maryn smiled as Morgan said she was glad she wasn't the only one with Cougar the beast anymore. She laughed. Cougar was dressed as a mountain lion. "Nice costume." Maryn commented nicely to Cougar. Maybe the party wouldn't be bad. Maybe Maryn would really have a fun time and not think about Nate. Maybe.. Maryn smiled as Morgan said she loved her costume, but asked what she was. "A Spanish Senorita." She laughed touching the flower in her hair. She smiled looking around. The house was nice. Maryn hadn't been to a party since Rosaliz's last year. Rosa only had the party to make her feel better about her parents' deaths. However, the whole thing ended with Rosaliz hurt at the hospital. Maryn hoped with every fiber in her body that this party would be loads better. Maryn smiled as Morgan pulled out muggle c.d.'s. She was a pure-blood, right? Maryn of course knew what they were. She was a muggle born after all. She spent many a day curled up listening to her favorite punk music. Maryn usually had a punk edge, but not too much of one. Maryn looked at the c.d.'s Morgan had layed out. "Hmm." She said calmly staring at them. "Personally I like The Killers and My Chemical Romance, but that's just me." She said calmly. Maryn loved rock and punk music, but she did have an open mind for other music as well. Suddenly, a girl walked in. Maryn recognized her as a fellow dorm mate. "Hey, Leah, right?" She asked calmly just making sure she had the name right. Maryn had never really talked to her before.

Morgan then started playing some c.d. Maryn had never really heard of. She asked if it was okay. Maryn nodded. She loved music, but sadly she wasn't much of a singer. Maryn's voice was loud and very punk diva like. She liked to sing to herself, but that was basically it. Her voice very much matched her fashion and her music taste. Maryn smiled and nodded as Morgan asked if they listened to any muggle bands. "I do since I am a muggle born." Maryn giggled. "I like anything rock and punk." She said calmly knowing exactly her taste in muggle music. "I like some of those American Bands too and of course old classics like The Beatles. I have neighbors obsessed with them so I listen to them a lot at home." She smiled calmly thinking back to the days of listening to The Beatles on her the neighbor's front porch. "And then stuff like Nirvana and Green Day." She smiled. "Anything sort of off the wall like that." She explained. Maryn didn't know if any of them would understand, but she liked to explain muggle music to people anyways. She loved explaining muggle things to people in general because it was one thing Maryn was a master of.

[aggielover123]

Glad she wasn't the only one that listened to muggle music Morgan glanced over at Maryn. "I love Green Day!" she said, "But my all time favorite is always Audioslave, but the with Snowpatrol as my second I can say that the Snowpatrol band is much much more good looking!" Grinning at herself she wondered if Cougar would feel weird if they started talking about guys looks. Giggling at the thought she re-fixed her hair and sat back down nodding her head to the song, 'Jimmy Gets High'. Grinning she looked around thinking about the fact that there weren't that many people here when someone knocked again. Running to open the door she saw a bunch of peopel come in with their own music. Taking it she went and played it along with her CD to have two different things going at once.

Letting them in she saw many people dancing and all of their normal party stuff as she walked to the kitchen. Propping the door open and she called in three house elves to go around the place with two trays of food each and when the food ran out to go and get more. Coming back with a tray of four butterbeers on it. Handing one each too Leah, Cougar, and Maryn she kept the fourth one for herself and another house elf picked up the tray. Grinning as more people came in Morgan decided to just keep the door open seeing as it was cool outside it would only make her house colder. Running up stairs to her room she pulled out all of her huge candy stash of both muggle and magic types of candies. Setting it in the middle of the room she waited for a few more of her actual friends to come.




((just to let ya know, I am obsessed with music, so there might be a lot involved in my posts!LOL ))

((and these are the people that are there, but not really if you know what I mean! ))

[ames]

Amelia sighed at herself in her mirror. Her mother was there, as was Dawn, her mother's best friend, who they lived with. Amelia tilted her head, her eyes judging the appearance. Her dyed brown hair was curled into ringlets and there was purple and black streaks within the curls to match the dark fairy costume she wore. Her make-up was made of the same color scheme. Purple eyeshadow with thick black eyeliner and purple and pink glitter about her eyes. Her lipstick was dark red with purple glitter lipgloss rolled atop of it. Her costume was a dress with black and shades of purple on the skirt (which had the appearance of it being shredded) and the top was dark purple with dark pink ribbons and black lace. Her legs were covered in black fishnet stockings and her fake fairy wings, which were charmed to flap every now and then, was a see-through purple with purple gems.

She bit her red painted lip and looked behind her at her mother, a question of approval in her eyes. Jay'Na was looking over her daughter's costume and making "hmmm" noises. Dawn eyes were twinkling mischeviously and she had a silly looking smile on her face. Amelia was still a bit apprehensive about the costume. It was a bit revealing, but also it wasn't. Her mother finally smiled and nodded.

"You look wonderful, honey," she said. Dawn laughed.

"I don't know what it's like over there in the 'Wizarding World', but if they think you look this good, then how many dates will you have lined up?" Amelia laughed and shook her head.

"I don't know!" She laughed again at her mother's friend. She looked around her room and then gasped. She was going to be late! She hugged her mother and kissed Dawn on the cheek. She yelled her good-bye to Jaime, Dawn's teenage son, while she grabbed her car keys, her CD collection, and her purse. She opened the car door and slid inside. Soon she was driving down the road toward her friend, Morgan's house. There was a costume party waiting for her.

The car radio was blasting music as she pulled up to the house. She smiled, getting excited for the party. Her own birthday was soon and she hoped to get some ideas from this party for her own Sweet 16. She turned off the engine and grabbed her things, exiting the car. She smiled and ran to the door, her black boots making oddly hollow sounds on the concret of the walk. The door was open so she just walked inside. Her red lips turned up into a smile and her white teeth showed as music pounded through the floor. Amelia's heart pounded, suddenly. She was probably going to be the only 5th year here, well... 6th year now that school was over with. She shrugged and walked toward the sounds of voices.

As she walked into the main room where music was playing and fellow students were dressed in their costumes, Amelia smiled wider. She set her CD collection on the table and waved to Morgan. She walked over, her blue eyes glittering.

"Hey there, birthday girl!" She said with joy in her voice.

[coolasice]

Leon grinned, leaning against the closed door of his sister’s bedroom. She was on the inside, he on the outside. They were both in their costumes and Leon couldn’t wait to see hers. “After three then May?” He called through the door, grinning as his toddler brother Matt woke up and straight away began crying because of his call.
“Yep.” She answered happily.
“One…” Leon said.
“Two,”
“THREE!” Leon finished after her ‘two’ He opened the door quickly, setting his eyes on his younger sister. “Aww May you look so gorgeous! I love your hair like that,” He complimented, walking over to her. She was wearing a pixie outfit, blue for Ravenclaw. It had white rosebuds along the neck-hem and several loose, floaty material along the bottom for effect. She had a pair of silvery-white, shimmery wings on her back that Leon’s mother had spelled to flutter randomly on the minute, and the wings had tiny white sequins on them which moved across the material like little bugs, though giving it a real effect.
“Thanks… um…you too!” May stifled a laugh as she spoke, but then she couldn’t hold it in. Laughing so hard she had to sit on the bed, she gazed at her older brother with amusement. For Leon too, was wearing the exact same pixie costume.
“Yeah, you think I look gorgeous?” He grinned, posing cheesily for her as she giggled non-stop. “Me too. But hurry up with that make-up, we have to go soon!” He rushed her.

May nodded and, still sniggering, tugged her brother towards her dressing table. Reaching for the surface she lifted some silvery-green eye shadow and lots and lots of silver glitter. She carefully dabbed the powers onto her brother’s cheeks and eyelids, still chuckling as his face began to look more and more comical with each addition. Once the make-up was finished she brushed his lashes with mascara and drew on his cheek with some silver eyeliner, a tiny little butterfly.
“Nice addition that butterfly. Flo would love it- I don’t think she’s going though.” He smiled at her skilful work. She too had exactly the same make-up, but she however was a girl.

Not twenty minutes later they arrived in front of Morgan’s house, Leon shivering in his tights and May fixing a silver slide in her hair. Her blonde locks had been curled into perfect ringlets, then piled onto her head stylishly and fixed with a huge white band. The band was studded all along with several white gems, as were the bracelets on her wrist and the necklace around her neck. Knocking on the door, Leon wondered what Maryn would think of his costume.

[aggielover123]

Seeing Amelia come in Morgan grinned. "Hey! Join in the party!" she said grinning as the music was turned up louder and louder. Showing Amelia the CD player she walked toward the door after hearing noises on the other side of it. Throwing the door open, seeing as someone had shut it, she saw Katie-May looking for good in a pretty pixie dress, but the real hit was when she saw Leon. Supressing her own laughter she opened the door wider to let them into the room, pointing out her actual friends still crowded around the CDs'. "Nice costume Leon!" she commented as she went back into the kitchen for three more drinks. Setting one in front of May, Leon, and Amelia she couldn't wait until everyone actually started having fun.

Going through Amelia's CD's she looked if there were any she liked, or if they were all wizard CDs' like Morgan's had been. Changing the CD that had been in there she put in the Weird Sisters and saw that this was one more people recognized and rolled her eyes. Many people in the middle of the room she saw had been mouthing the words to the song. Hearing the door bell she felt her eyes grow wide. "Uh-oh!" she said. "I'll be right back." Running as quickly as possible out of the room she shut the door and was glad it was sound proof on the outside. "Hey Kyle." she said, seeing her brother standing on the other side. "Whatcha doin?"

Her brother frowning replied, "i think the question is what are you doing?" Glancing at her costume he grinned a big toothy smile. "I won't tell if you let me in!" he said.

"I would but you don't have a costume." She told him, only to see him pull out his wand and smoke appeared. After a few seconds it had gone away to reveal a pirate. "Nice!" she said before opening the door again. Him following her through all the people she saw that he was the tallest person there. Walking up to her friends she said, "This is my psycho of a brother, Kyle."

[Maryn Livley]

Maryn smiled as Morgan said she loved Greenday. She then said that Audioslave and Snowpatrol. Maryn smiled and nodded. She knew of them too but vaguely. "There good too." She commented laughing. Maryn just loved music. She was glad that Morgan seemed to be a music freak too. Maryn took the butterbeer from Morgan and took a sip. "Thanks." She said calmly. Maybe this would be a good party. Nate would be fine. Right? A few minutes later an older Gryffindor girl came in. Maryn was sure her name was Amelia, but she hadn't actually talked to her before. Maryn just smiled nicely. She couldn't wait for more of her friends to come. Maryn knew Leon was and she was excited to see his costume. Maryn swayed to the music a little bit, but she wasn't ready to dance or anything just yet. She wondered how many of her other friends would be coming. Maryn hadn't seen many of them since school got out. Being in the hospital wasn't great for her social life, but Maryn wasn't too concerned with that. This party was a great chance for her to catch up with all her friends and she never minded making new ones either. Maryn was a social person and she knew you could never have enough friends. Maryn smiled at the people who came in nicely.

Maryn smiled as Leon and Katie-May arrived. She walked over and gave both her friends hugs. She laughed laying eyes on Leon. "May you look just like a pixie." She said smiling. "Leon, Leon.." Maryn said jokingly. She walked around pretending to criticize her outfit. Finally, Maryn gave up the act and giggled. "I love it." She said laughing. Maryn had only been there for like twenty minutes and already she was having a blast. Maryn smiled at Leon. "So, did May bring you to this? If so good job May." Maryn laughed. Maryn thought it was just too funny and it was just like Leon. Her outfit seemed sort of stupid with everyone else's. Oh, well. It was the best one she could find in the store. Suddenly, Maryn looked over as it seemed Morgan's brother had come home. She smiled calmly as Morgan introduced him as Kyle. "Hi." Maryn said in a friendly tone. She then looked back at Leon and smiled at his costume once again. It was too funny and Maryn loved it.

[ames]

Amelia barely noticed Morgan looking through her CDs. That was why she had brought them. They were all Muggle bands, however. She didn't have a lot of chances to go shopping in Diagon Alley or even Hogsmead, so she always ended up getting Muggle CDs at the mall in London. She smiled as Morgan put in the Wierd Sisters. She took up the soda, Morgan had placed in front of her and took a drink. Her foot started to move up and down with the beat and she found herself wanting to dance. It didn't look like anyone else was dancing, so she remained where she was standing.

Another drink from the soda, Amelia glanced around the crowd. Everyone seemed to be younger than her by at least a year, except for Morgan's brother, who seemed much older. She sighed, growing a little bored. She decided to talk with a few people over by the door. A girl dressed in a black salsa dress and Morgan's older brother, who was dressed as a pirate. She walked over, her smile friendly.

"Hi. I'm Amelia." She introduced herself.
