~*~* SUPER SPECIAL SLEEPOVER POTLUCK PARTY *~*~

The Gold Mouse dorm building itself stands out being painted in the colors of the sunset. The interior is playful with blown-up furniture and colorful pillows strewn about. There's gold sun-shaped mirrors decorating the walls that overlap one another. The colors are all bright with a splash of gold accents or mouse shaped decor to remind you of which dorm it is.

At the back of the first floor is the elevator. Those who live here can access the higher floors by scanning their ID card against at the elevator's button. Next to the elevator door is a bin of mouse ear headbands. Before a character is allowed entry, they must choose one and wear it. all night. or else.

The elevator will only stop on the third floor, where it opens up to a large living room with teal and blue couches full of throw pillows. There's floor cushions and throw blankets piled up next to the couches in case anyone wants to get cozy on the floor... if you can with a swimming pool's worth of plastic ball pit balls dumped all over. There is a large screen on the opposite wall and a collection of action and romantic comedy movies.

The ball pit’s the best part!

[ why are you running ]

You know they're impossible to get out of, right? Look at Mouse. [ a gesture to where mouse is drowning. also because he likes tama and it's better than small-talking other people. ]

I managed it! Maybe Mouse is just doing it wrong...

[ brutal.

i guess they are just watching mouse suffer when they could be helping them. ]

[ "mouse is drowning" "this ain't about them."

mouse seems to be having fun though, so he leaves it alone. ]

I've never considered the right or wrong way of getting out of a ball pit, but I'm going to guess it's about as difficult as getting in and out of a hammock.

[ it's fiiiinnnne. ]

Yeah. Awkward, probably a little embarrassing, but you'll manage it eventually. Something like that.

[ a pause. ]

That's still not enough to convince me to give it a try myself, but yeah, exactly like that.

Well that’s no fun.

[ party pooper. ]

Believe me, Tama, if I was planning to embarrass myself in front of a bunch of people somehow I'd pick something way different.

Okay but, consider this…

It would be pretty funny.

Nooooo. Now you're just being mean.

Teenagers are meant to embarrass themselves. Get it out of your system early.

Remind me to tell you about the last time I really embarrassed myself, like, later. I think it's long out of my system now.

…

Oh. Don’t worry, I will.

[ he realizes his mistake like ten seconds later. ]

Never mind, that sounds too threatening coming from you.

[ wow ]

What?! I was just saying I’d remember!

[ he shakes his head. ]

And it'll come up when I least expect it? [ i think the worst is that tama really could just get away with whatever she wants. ]

I’ll be good, and only bring it up in private? Not even in front of Will!

Very generous of you, thanks. [ does not clarify that the particular incident he's thinking about involves will. ] ...anyway. The ball pit. We could always pick someone else to throw into it.
