The hell am I doing here? [OPEN]

Tanya smiled happily when she got a response from Lilith. A bit of an odd name, but then again, who was she to judge? Seeing the hand extended, Tanya enthusiastically shook her classmate's hand, dancing along to the music as she did so. She seemed to be enjoying the party more than the other people from the academy.
Seeing the approach of another girl, she gave an enthusiastic wave. While it seemed like she was more focused on talking to Lilith than she was talking to her, since she was with her, she basically was talking to her anyways.
"I'm Tanya from Wave Dorm, and this is Lilith from Mana Dorm." Tanya introduced loudly, trying to make sure that the girls could hear her over the music. "What brings you guys here?"

So that's how it is... well... her choice, if she's happy like that, no point in really trying to change that... but that doesn't mean it didn't find a way to hurt... but... that's not much of change for Chris... even though that kind of pain has a habit of piercing deeper than most others. Chris merely sat back in silence, keeping his gaze away from Seria and whoever the girl she was with was... that'd just make it worse. Instead he was looking towards the other students... it wasn't as easy to identify everyone's dorm due to the lack of uniform, but that really isn't too big of a problem.
Looking down for a moment towards Argos, Chris made a simple motion with his hand towards the Growlithe, as if to go and tell it to go and enjoy itself and that Dusk will be watching incase the Growlithe needs any help... just because Chris isn't one for parties doesn't mean the Pokémon can't have fun. "Argos, go have some fun... Dusk will be watching so she can help if there are any problems... Just stay within our sight" Chris spoke to his Growlithe in a kind tone, causing it to bark and go off to try and say hello to some other pokemon, although he was being careful to make sure Dusk and Chris could still see him.

Tristan had heard of a place in town where students of the academy often threw parties. Intrigued and wanting to meet someone besides students of just the Lava or Mana Dorms, he threw on a black shirt and some jeans and headed for town. He came across the pier and decided to look around.
He quickly found a party. Surprised at his luck (good or bad had yet to be decided), Tristan quickly felt himself grow somewhat uncomfortable. He had expected to find a few people in the social spot, but he hadn't expected to come across a full blow party. He scanned for a relatively clear place for him to sit and watch the crowd.
He saw a few differing groups of people, but he didn't make any sign of socialization. Right now he was just content to observe... From a relative distance, of course.

Another soft smile touched Lilith's soft lips once another young female approached her with a smile. "Hi Alice, it's nice to meet you. I'm Lilith. I'm also from the Mana Dorm." She replied, her smile only starting to widen a little more. She was finally started to believe that she had made a good decision by stopping by to check out the party pier. She soon found herself laughing after realizing that Tanya had already introduced herself to the girl. She wasn't expecting Tanya to introduce her. However, she later figured that Tanya seen the opportunity to actually spark up a conversation with Alice. "Oh my...This party is really starting to become a little too crowded for my liking..." She stated, glancing over at the newcomers. She wasn't expecting this many people to show up to the pier tonight.

"Nice to meet you, Tanya and Lilith. I agree with you, Lilith. The party's crowded and the music's pretty loud, but I can handle it. The only thing that I would need right now is quiet time. As for what I'm doing, I'm just hanging around with Claude, my Snivy." The leaf lizard gave a small wave to the two females and tried to cancel out the noise himself. That noise level was loud, but she would have to handle it if the party had to go on into the night. Meanwhile, someone new had joined the party, but he was being antisocial. Not only was he familiar, but she didn't have time to talk to that guy right now. It looked like everyone was having fun dancing the night away, it seemed. Well, it was a party after all, so why not join in the fun? She noticed that the gray-haired boy was there too and looked kind of...dejected. Not that anyone cared as they were busy having fun with one another.

A giggle escaped her lips as Amanda cheerfully lead her friend onto the dance floor: nodding politely to all the students she recognized there. Although only Tanya she knew by name: she greeted them all warmly, introducing herself as best to the other two as the loud music would allow.
Introductions finished: Amanda smiled as she turned back to Seria, playfully pushing her friend a bit away.
''I'm not too good at this sort of dancing myself, but it shouldn't be too difficult, we just need to follow the others here!'' she explained. As the young blonde began to shift her hips from side to side, swaying gracefully to the tune of the music. As she got into the into the rhythm: she let her eyes wander around the room. Taking in all the various sights and sounds of the party-goers. It was an eclectic mix: at that. Some people had chosen to wear casual clothes and sit quietly, others were wearing more elegant dresses and dancing cheerfully. Amanda couldn't help but feel somewhat out of place, her choice of clothing now seeming a bit old fashioned even with so many different styles.
She turned her attention back to Seria. Now the Nature Dormer: she looked simply stunning. Enough to dismiss any apprehensions Amanda may have had.

Oleg sighed, leaning against the bench as he just watched. There was a good walk way forming to lead him out of here. Expect it was a little too well formed for just a good exit. It was not random. It was organized. And then he saw the reason, and oh Arceus damnit, he did not want to see it. The popular people had arrived.
Oleg watched as slowly but surely three boys arrived carrying one girl. He had heard something about these guys, but not much expect "Try to avoid them. They're bad news." And Arceus damn, you could see why. The boys were all rather tall and muscular, most of them even slightly taller than Oleg himself. And the girl? Skimpy clothes, make up, everything that signaled that she was seeking for attention. Bad news.

Tanya listened to what the two had to say, nodding her head to indicate that she could actually hear them. The party was crowded. While Tanya did like parties, she wasn't a gigantic fan when there were just groups of people everywhere. It made the environment feel stifling and stuffy. Not the best feeling on a night out.
"You have something from the Snivy line as well? That's pretty cool! I personally have a Servine myself. Maybe we could-" Tanya started, animatedly chatting with Alice before she spotted something that made her feel unsettled. They were kids from the academy, people she recognized. While she wasn't as close friends with the girl as some of her other friends like Seria, she still felt a kinship towards her.
"Watch out for my friends over there." Tanya informed the girls, gesturing over to the crazy partiers. "They normally are pretty nice people, but they have a tendency to drink and stuff. When they drink though, they have a tendency to act really dumb."
Tanya never understood why people did underage drinking. It was such a waste of time in her opinion and while it could be somehow classified as "fun", she felt that there were a whole lot of other ways to have fun as well. Looking at the group though, they seemed to be giving Seria and Amanda odd looks. Raising an eyebrow, she didn't act out on anything for now.

Seria smiled as Amanda led her to the dance floor, and as it seemed, the latter was politely introducing herself to the others she did not recognize either. Once this was done, Seria found herself getting playfully pushed a little bit away (probably to give her some room) and giggled as Amanda explained that she wasn't too good at this whole she-bang either, but that it shouldn't be too hard as long as they followed what the others were doing. Nodding, the young lady before her began to dance, shifting her hips from side to side and swaying gracefully, these movements even made Seria blush ever-so-slightly. Indeed, Seria had already so many intense feelings for Amanda, but somehow, seeing her like this... made her want to take the lead this time.
Seria giggled and soon stepped back towards Amanda, and as the latter was dancing, Seria attempted to clasp one of her hands and stretch them out while also mimicking her movements, such that they would be dancing in sync and also in extremely close proximity to each other. She didn't notice the group of the so-called 'popular cool kids' looking at the two of them oddly. Besides, it's not like she'd care at this point whether anybody thought of Seria as 'weird' because of her relationship.

Amanda was enjoying herself, giggling happily as Seria moved closer for a more ''personal'' approach. One that brought a blushed grin to the face of the Kalosian. It really was nice to dance with someone she liked so immensely, and as such: moved even closer. Indeed, behind Seria entirely as she began to dance from behind the other girl, wrapping her arms around the waist of the Nature Dormer, giggling.
Perhaps it was a bit more daring than she was used to, but Amanda felt it seemed to fit the nature of the event just fine. People were having fun all around them and adding to that was just the natural state of things.
Unfortunately, her new position let he lay eyes upon the the newcomers. Their appearance troubling her as she directly let go of Seria, frowning. She had dealt with rowdy tourists and unpleasant individuals before in her life, and those people gave off the exact same vibe.

Seria was happy to see Amanda look so happy when the latter wrapped her arms around Seria's own waist. However, it seemed that Amanda saw something, or saw someone, and then she let go of Seria, frowning somewhat. Seria blinked and suddenly realized that Amanda had seen or noticed something. When Seria turned her head and saw those newcomers, she sighed. Seria turned her attentions back to Amanda, trying to ignore what those rowdy people and unpleasant individuals might be thinking about the two of them. "Um, dear, I'm sorry if this place makes you feel uncomfortable. Want to do something else, or do you want to go somewhere else?" Seria looked genuinely concerned and this time just stuck to gently clasping one of Amanda's hands with her own, as a friendly gesture.
She still didn't notice that Amanda's Pokemon was probably still running off somewhere throughout the party.

Amanda looked at Seria a little sadly, somewhat embarassed to admit she didn't want to stay. Accepting the hand of the nature girl and leaning close, she nodded and gestured towards the exit. While she would have wanted to keep dancing, Amanda was growing increasingly worried that a conflict would escalate between the newcomers and some of the students around them. When that happened, things would be very unpleasant indeed, and it was hardly something she wanted to be present for.
Yet, as she took in the sight of Seria, a slight blush colored her cheeks and made her feel just a little bit better. The idea of being alone with her friend was something she wouldn't mind at all, to put it mildly.
''Alright, let's go!'' Amanda giggled.

Oleg scratched the back of his neck in deep thought. He was pretty sure he had seen enough for to know that this place was rather bad news and that he should avoid it. Too loud, too crowded, and his fashion sense was just simply horrid for this kind of stuff. He slowly rose up, cracking his back as he then begun pushing his way trough.
As he reached the entrance, he sadly had to go past a few of the more popular people. Almost at the exit... Before he was cut off with a yell. "Oi, potato nose, where you going? Getting an actual fashion sense?"
Oleg sighed, turning his head around as he looked at what had insulted him. Aand it was the popular girl. Fecks sake, he could not punch her now. He simply retorted by flipping out his middle finger. "**** off." He then returned to his wobbling, finally exiting the park, thankfully not hearing the girl's reactions.

Seria smiled and nodded, as the girl soon wrapped an arm around Amanda, letting the Wave dormer lean close to her. Indeed, it seemed evident that leaving the premises now and enjoying their time privately elsewhere would be the best course of action. They could dance alone in privacy if they so desired, or they could do something more than that. It really did depend on Amanda's mood at the time, what the two would do next. Seria nodded as the blonde blushed slightly and giggled her approval. At that, Seria decided she would gently guide Amanda out of the premises and perhaps take her to a better place. But where?
...Seria was pretty sure they could talk it out as they went anyways. "Have a place in mind?" Seria asked as the two now began to leave.

The party went on and Tanya grew bored of it. The people she was with didn't look like they were having fun, and that contributed to her feelings of the party as well. Maybe she should try going with people who actually like this sort of stuff. At least that way, Tanya could know for sure whether or not she actually found this type of thing fun. Then again, she probably shouldn't complain about her friends. They were awesome people after all, they just had somewhat different tastes.
Realizing that the party was not going to get better anytime soon, Tanya waved goodbye to the people she met at the party and swiftly made her way back to the dorm. On another day, she probably could've had more fun that evening. Right now though, she didn't feel like partying too hard. She wondered if Annie was back in their dorm. It would be nice to hang out with her again.
