Andromeda lowkey was tempted to skip the ball. She thought that starting at 5 am of all times was too early.

Hael was sleepy and wanted to go back to their dorm.

Sebastian began to wonder the courtyard looking at the dew as it dripped off the trees as he found a good place under a tree and sat down and began to people watch.

Little did Sebastian know, Caririce was perched in the tree above him, a mischievous smirk pulling at her lips, and she dropped a single acorn down from the tree, hoping it would bounce of the boy below her. Acorns didn't hurt, so it was a harmless prank.

Sebastian looked up at the person above him and raised an eyebrow in confusion as the acorn bounced off his forehead. "Caririce what are you doing up there and why the he!! Are you throwing acorns at me"

elia ready to dance

"Heh, you walked into my awaiting trap!" Caririce crowed, nimbly jumping from the tree and landing on the empty part of the bench, sitting down. "It could have been anyone, had they sat there."

"So you have just been waiting up there for someone to fall victim to your acorns. You know if it was anyone else you would have been hurt.. or worse.... just dont do it again okay" Sebastian said as he looked over at her, his hazel eyes holding a bit of concern in them.

Harley saw the two talking and walked over to them, the bottle of fire whiskey under his jacket. He pulled it out as he approached and opened it for the first time. He then took a swig, knowing it would have to last the entire dance. “You guys want some?” he asked Sebastian and Caririce. “I also have butterbeer but I like to get a little tipsy before I dance.” He winked.

Sebastian looked at Harley and rolled his eyes. He knew it was against the rules to drink right now but it was too damn early for him to think about the consequences fully so he just sighed and opened his hand, and smirked. “Give me the strongest thing you have. At the point I don’t care if I pass out or not”

"Hmm, fine. It's only acorns though." Caririce sighed, slumping lower on the bench, although she wasn't that upset. "I would like some as well," She said, eyes lighting up when Harley walked over. "Or I'll have to start thowing acorns again."
