Open Spin the Bottle Y36

Jenna looked around there and seem familiar boy. He was gryffindor and he looked nice also Jenna waved him and gave him a little smile. She was sit wirh him at the poition and Jenna was glad see him here. Later Jenna sit with chair and waited what happened next.

@Flynn Kaster
 
Connor couldn't quite believe what he was doing. Going to a game of spin the bottle. He had lost his mind, clearly. Why had he thought this was a good idea? The closer he got to the room they were meeting in, the less and less sure he got of his decision to attend at all. But he couldn't deny, as he was starting to reach an age where his classmates were beginning to date, he was starting to get curious about that stuff too. He had never kissed anyone before, but other people definitely seemed to like it. The biggest risk, honestly, was that he would open the door and see Eric here. He didn't think he would ever be able to face his brother again if Eric had seen him coming to something like this, a kissing game. It was a relief when he finally gathered up the guts to open the door, and the only familiar faces were friends. He made a beeline for Emma and sat down next to her, face bright red. "Hi." He squeaked softly, staring at his knees, too nervous to face anyone else in the circle.
 
Sully laughed at Jarica and Knox, shaking his head as they joked around. Taking a look around the room though, there was a great turn out and Sully was eager to get things rolling. Or spinning. "Let's get this party started!" He announced happily, placing the bottle in the center of the circle as dramatically as he could without smashing it. "So, here's the deal. You sit in the circle, you spin the bottle. Whoever it lands on, you have to kiss, and then they spin the bottle. Simple, aye," He explained, hoping that everyone already knew the basics of the game, but explaining just in case there was some sort of weird wizard rules version or something. "Me first," Sully said eagerly, giving the bottle a solid spin. He didn't want to waste any more time talking to waiting in case he never got a turn.

The bottle spun, a little unbalanced before finally landing on the gangly Ravenclaw that Sully was pretty sure was Emma's brother. He wasn't thrilled about kissing Emma's brother, but it'd be kinda funny. Grinning, Sully leant across the circle to kiss him.

It begins! Don't forget to @ whoever you're going to kiss and leave room for them to respond to avoid godmodding.

Emma grinned as Sully started the game. He was so confident, and she bet he had kissed loads of people already. As he started, Emma leaned in closer to see what the bottle would do. She tried to will it to land on her, but as it started slowing down it was clear that it wasn't pointing in her direction. Emma was disappointed, but that disappointment turned into horror when she saw who it did point at. Her own brother. She could only watched in dismay as Sully leaned in, her hands moving up to her face as if she wanted to hide behind them. Surely Lars wouldn't do it? Though even as she thought it, she knew he didn't know about her crush on Sully, as she hadn't told him.
 
As the event started, Lars glanced at the door. At least he was no longer the only fifth year here, but he was still debating if he should stay. He'd just about decided to leave once the boy running it was busy kissing someone, when it became clear the someone he would kiss was him. Despite it being the point of the game, Lars' face turned pink as he watched the boy lean forward to kiss him. But... well, it was what he had come here for. The boy was someone he knew was on the Gryffindor Quidditch team, and he wasn't bad to look at. So far, Lars had only kissed Elliot. Maybe it was time to change that. It occurred to him that maybe it would help him let go of Elliot completely and finally if he kissed someone else.

With that thought fueling him, Lars leaned forward too, bracing himself with one hand on the floor as he leaned in to press his lips against the younger boy's. The thought of forgetting about Elliot after this caused him to kiss him a bit more firmly than he had initially intended, his other hand moving up to steady both himself and the other boy by gripping his shoulder as he pressed their lips together. After a moment, Lars pulled away, his cheeks pink. "Was... that alright?" He asked the Gryffindor cautiously, his hand still resting on his shoulder. It had felt oddly freeing to him, but he didn't know what the other boy had thought of it.

Nicole was immediately relieved when Emma and Jenna arrived, terrified she'd have to spend this whole game sitting with Lysander and Wendall. Emma sat nearby and she scooted closer to her, just so Jenna wouldn't think she was betraying her by hanging out with Wendall after what had happened with them.

The game got started and Nicole held her breath as the bottle spun. She definitely didn't want to go first and judging by Emma's reaction maybe she didn't either. Though it might also just be second-hand embarrassment for having to watch her brother kiss. Nicole knew she would have just left if Ryan had been involved in a thing like this. "You can look now," She whispered to Emma once the boys had finished kissing. @Emma van Houten
 
Putting on a confident face, Sully didn't flinch when the Ravenclaw leant in to kiss him. He didn't close his eyes either, going a little cross-eyed as their lips met. It was kind of nice, but Sully was content to realize he'd been totally right about this whole kissing thing, it wasn't a big deal. "Yeah, sure, totally fine," Sully responded when the older boy asked if it was alright, laughing before clearing his throat. "Your turn now, aye," He nodded to the boy, settling back into his spot in the circle, goofy grin on his face. Sully had been a bit nervous about the whole thing, but now it was over, he just felt accomplished. "Just don't let Jacob know I've been kissing one of the Ravenclaw captains," He whispered to Knox and Noel with a giggle.
@Lars van Houten @Noel Waldgrave @Knox Ivers
 
The boy seemed to have enjoyed the kiss as well, which made Lars feel a bit more at ease. He smiled at him, then nodded as he said it was now his turn. He gave the bottle a spin and watched as it slowed down to point at Lysander Summers, who was his sister's best friend. Well, that was awkward. Lars gave Emma a quick glance, she wasn't looking pleased. But it was the game. He hesitated, then moved closer to the younger boy. It was weird to think he was Emma's age, and it made Lars feel very old in comparison even if he wasn't really. He hesitated. "I could just give you a kiss on the cheek, if you want?" He asked him softly, meeting his eyes with some concern.

@Lysander Summers

OOC: I swear this was RNG, I'm not just torturing Emma on purpose.
 
Even though Emma had her hands in front of her face, she still peeked through her fingers at the kiss. It made her angry, seeing how Lars didn't just give him a stupid peck but an actual kiss. She was even angrier when Sully seemed pleased about it, even laughing and whispering to his friends afterwards. She clenched her hands into fists, then felt even more annoyed when she saw who the bottle landed on next. Emma let out a dramatic sigh and closed her eyes tightly. She did NOT want to see Lars kiss her best friend, too. Why had she brought him again?
 
Wendall had waved as Ajax greeted him, glad that the Ravenclaw had joined the game too. A lot more people joined including Lysander and Emma, although he spotted Jenna too and had to do his best not to look over in her direction. He'd not spoken to her since she told him she didn't want to be friends anymore and didn't want to make things more awkward. As the game began, he was watching how this played out with interest, not that he knew many of the older students except maybe Padme. On the second spin the bottle was pointing straight at his best friend and Wendall couldn't help a little snort of laugher, which he did his very best to cover up with a cough. He was curious to see how Lysander would react and if he'd go with the cheek kiss. Honestly he didn't think the Gryffindor had kissed anyone before either so if it was Emma's brother, this was going to be a bit weird. He looked over to Emma and realised she looked very infuriated, not that Wendall lingered on it for too long after trying his best to send her reassuring smile.
 
The idea of playing spin the bottle didn't exactly appeal to Freya, but it held the promise of hilarity that she was intent on witnessing. She wanted to sit next to Connor, but her desire to not sit near Emma overrode that and she took a seat opposite them instead. Freya only knew the two older boys who had kissed from Quidditch, but she snorted when she caught Emma's reaction towards it. It had been worth coming just to see the look on her face, but it made Frey wonder what was the cause. Maybe Emma was just homophobic, Freya thought, her opinion of the Gryffindor dropping even further as she watched the game continue.
 
Olivia had heard about the spin the bottle party and decided at the last minute to go and see what all the fuss was about. As she arrived the game had already begun, she flashed a small wave at Chloe and found a space to squeeze into among the group and waited to see what happened. She had just got to the party as one of the Ravenclaw captains was negotiating kissing another boy.
 
Flynn had the advantage, or disadvantage, of knowing absolutely no one in the circle enough to fully understand what was going on, and contextualise the reactions. He knew Lysander the best, followed by recognising a few of the other Gryffindors (at least, he was almost positive he recognised them) and some other students he had thought he saw in classes. He had waved to @Jenna Jusantrea when she waved at him, but soon it was Emma's reactions that were grabbing his attention. She didn't seem particularly pleased, though he didn't really care to know why. "You totally got this," he told @Lysander Summers. Who cared? It was just a kiss, it wasn't like they were getting married.​
 
Lysander leaned forward as Sully got started by spinning the bottle, almost trying to magically will it in his head to land on Emma so they could kiss. His mouth dropped open when it instead landed on her older brother, and he threw a hand up to cover the grin beginning to spread on his face, trying to pass it off as shock. He knew how much she really liked Sully, but it was just too funny, and he had to really try not to laugh about it. He held his breath while the boys kissed, keeping the laughter held back. That wasn't so bad. It wasn't like they were in love now, but it was weird to think that Emma could end up kissing someone her brother had kissed. He sat back to watch the bottle spin again, and land on...him. What. What. How was this happening? "Oh, um." He said in surprise, looking up to meet Lars' eyes when the older boy moved closer. He broke the contact to shoot Wendall a look as his friend made a noise about it. A kiss on the cheek was okay, he guessed, but after Flynn commented too, he didn't want to look totally lame in front of all his friends, especially after the older boys had just kissed with no problems at all. A kiss on the cheek wasn't a real kiss, and he didn't want to be the loser who played spin the bottle and only get a peck on the cheek, but it was also Emma's brother. Was that better or worse than if he'd gotten Sully instead? "I can handle a real kiss." He decided, trying to sound way more confident than he felt. He spared Emma an apologetic look, before leaning forward and closing his eyes.​
 
The feeling Jenna took over when everyone started spinning the bottle. There was no descriptive word. Jenna felt a little nervous and she hoped that when it was her turn, she wouldn't turn to Wendall. Jenna didn't wanted run away when there were friends around. She of course hoped to cope and it was just a kiss or a kiss on the cheek. Jenna hoped it wouldn't be her turn so soon. So she waited and looked around to others.
 
Jarica looked around and smiled see people happy and make fun things. She also wanted know what she will be kiss our lip our cheek? That was so excited and she see today Jasper so serius? That was a great game and need smile and laught not sad face. So she hoped that she will be get soon spin the bottle.
 
Lars wasn't very surprised when Lysander insisted he could handle a real kiss. With two Gryffindor sisters, he kind of knew what they tended to be like when faced with a challenge. He contemplated arguing that he wasn't sure if he could handle a 'real' kiss with his little sister's best friend. But then he sighed and nodded instead. He didn't want to insult the boy either, and they were all here because they were somewhat around the same age. Lars didn't look in Emma's direction as he leaned forward as well and closed the distance between them, pressing his lips lightly against Lysander's. He kissed him softly for a moment, then pulled back. It hadn't been as firm or as long a kiss as with Sully, but surely no one could blame Lars for that. He gave a slightly awkward smile. "Okay, your turn." He mumbled before moving back down to his own spot in the circle, glad the group's attention would finally no longer be on him.
 
The look Lysander shot Wendall only had the Hufflepuff giggling more to himself as he struggled to contain himself. He had to clamp a hand over his mouth too when the Gryffindor said he could handle a real kiss. If this got any worse Wendall was sure he was going to pop. He calmed down a bit when the older boy did actually kiss him though, and he had to admit that it was probably pretty scary to have to do that in front of everyone, suddenly very aware now that if it came down to it, he would have to do a real one too if he wanted to keep on the same level as his friend. He glanced again to Emma with wide eyed, a mixture of shock and surprise on his face, and wondered who else Lysander was going to have to deal with, oh it looked so gross.
 
Lysander felt a small jolt of shock run through his body when Lars' lips met his, even though he'd known what to expect. It felt like it had gone for a lot longer than it did, with everyone sitting around and watching. After they pulled away he sat back quickly afterwards, his cheeks deepening to a shade of van Houten red. He couldn't believe it. He'd kissed someone. He'd kissed Emma's brother. In front of Emma. He thought about whispering something to her, but he couldn't look at her yet, and just wanted to move on with the game quickly, almost forgetting that it was his turn to spin the bottle again. Oh man. He'd have to kiss someone else now. Maybe even Lars again, or Sully, or Emma. He took a deep breath and leaned forward, giving the bottle a spin. He watched as it rotated around, slowly coming to a stop on @Flynn Kaster. "You totally got this." He joked, shuffling over to sit across from his dormmate and lean gently in. Of course he had to be one of the prettiest guys in the whole circle, but it was definitely better than the people he'd been afraid of landing on.​

Chloe wondered how awkward the game was going to get, considering most people here probably already knew each other which only made the Ravenclaw feel more out of place. At least she wasn’t one of the oldest students, although most were younger than her. She felt slightly relieved when she spotted Olivia join the circle and she smiled back at her, at least there was another familiar face. Sully and another boy kissed, and she wondered what the commotion of that was, when she noticed a younger girl cover her eyes. She found it gross, or something? And then, one of the boys kissed another younger one and Chloe wondered if she was going to have to kiss a girl. Probably. She wasn’t sure if she wanted to kiss anyone here, but at least she’d get her first kiss out of the way.
 
Flynn gave Lysander two thumbs up after he finished his kiss and settled back down, completely forgetting about the fact that his dorm mate would be spinning again and that it could potentially land on himself - which it promptly did. If he thought about it for any reasonable length of time, he may have considered the fact that this could become potentially awkward for his and Lysander's very new relationship and it was probably a good idea to not jeopardise that with shenanigans. Fortunately (or perhaps unfortunately) for the pair of them, Flynn didn't worry himself with 'what ifs?' and started chuckling at their current situation, particularly Lysander's comment. They both totally had this. Everyone else had so far managed kissing on the lips without dying, so the Gryffindor didn't have a moment's hesitation and closed the distance between them, giving @Lysander Summers a kiss on the lips.​
 
Now that he'd gotten his first kiss out of the way, Lysander found himself feeling way more relaxed about doing it again, especially with someone that was much less awkward to do it with by comparison. His dormmate was still a new face, and it sort of made the whole thing easier to do. He propped himself up on his hands to keep himself steady as he leaned in and pressed his lips against Flynn's. They were nicer than Lars', though he didn't know how much of that was just because of how brief and weird that kiss had been. He pulled back after a moment and grinned sheepishly, hoping he'd not been too bad a kisser. "Awesome. Cool. Um, your turn." He said, sitting back in his spot in the circle to see who'd be up next.​
 
Flynn was feeling a little giddy, which seemed silly, and had his eyes closed just before they met. It was fun, he certainly liked it, and was definitely looking forward to kissing someone again. He wasn't sure if having the crowd around them made it more or less fun, however, but it certainly made it more interesting. When they finally broke away, the Gryffindor laughed as he reached for the bottle to spin. He wasn't sure if the laughter was powered more by nerves or excitement, but he was still smiling by time the bottle slowed and eventually stopped on @Nicole Fisk. He had never met the girl before, but he hadn't actually met the greater majority of the students here before, so it didn't really matter by this point. "Hey, I'm Flynn," he greeted, moving closer to the Slytherin.​
 
Nicole couldn't help but giggle nervously when the bottle landed on Lysander now, giving Emma another sympathetic glance. It was weird to think about her friends kissing people, but she guessed that was why they were here. The bottle landed on the new exchange student next and Nicole had to admit Lysander was pretty lucky. She didn't know the new boy very well, but he was extremely pretty. Her train of thought came to an abrupt stop there though when he spun the bottle and it pointed directly at her, Nicole's entire face heating up. "Oh uh. Hi Flynn, I'm Nicole," She said quietly, feeling flustered as she moved over. Unsure of what to do, Nicole just leant forward for the kiss, squeezing her eyes shut quickly. Maybe she didn't have to see his face up close she wouldn't make a fool of herself in front of everyone else. @Flynn Kaster
 
Frankly, Sully was finding the whole game hilarious, grinning stupidly as it continued. It was funny that Lysander also had to kiss the Ravenclaw captain, and Sully was already formulating plenty of jokes in his head for their next few practices and games about it. The game moved on and Sully was glad no one had wussed out on them yet too. Cheek kisses would be fine and all but they were so boring.
