A Wild Night

Comment ID #66808

me has a random thought that actually seems plausible.

Well, you know how Tessa is filthy stinkin’ rich and leaves at the end of this year for college? WELL, sending away parties happen to be very convenient plot sequences. SO, Tessa throws a party with her closest friends (ie: Paulo, Mike, Lucy, Sue, Daisy, Abbey, David, maybe McCain, and all associated hangers on) and spikes the punch.

Chaos ensues.

Between David trying to high-beam the chandelier, McCain spouting off random political nonsense, Paulo hitting on Daisy then getting into a fight with Abbey, Daisy, Sue, and Tessa don’t notice Lucy slip off.

Except for Mike.

In a semi-drunken state, he decides to follow her and finds her crying quietly on the patio/porch/deck. He sits down beside her. They have a few words involving love, life, and the pursuit of happiness.

Insert kissing scene that progresses to more… heated events.

I posted this under Page 10 of “To the Top”, but decided that it’s also a good idea for a fanfic. Any thoughts?

Taeshi-sama, if you decide to integrate this into the actual webcomic (because I feel that it really is just that plausible), I will construct a shrine in your honor. Seriously.

Seems fanfiction-worthy.

Also, Paulo hitting on Daisy would be fun to watch.

But perhaps not as much as the aftermath, once everyone had sobered up.

I say go for it.

The aftermath would be hell and would most likely turn out like school days, but it will be a good story nevertheless

School Days? And Hannibal, I can only guarantee by best effort.

I don’t think I’ll be playing/watching that in my life time, but I get the idea. Yeesh, that’s fairly terrifying….

‘m not sure this is entirely viable now. Having trouble getting the gang into Tessa’s house and starting the evening innocuously. Any ideas?

2 words: Study group

But is going away par- wait. Could we change the premise then? But why would there be spiked punch at a study group?

Bambalooza July 30, 2010, 5:01 PM EST.

Comment ID #67559

I didn’t think it that far in, maybe someone spikes some punch she brings as a refreshment.

Outline so far:

A Wild Night

Invitations
Arrives the Tessa
“What’s up? Why haven’t you left for college?”
“It doesn’t start till Fall and you underclassmen are too cute to leave alone!”
Deadpan looks of “Not really all that funny, Tessa”
“Anyway, I’m having a party in a few days for graduation. I want you all to come!”
“Looks fun, what’re we doin’?”
“Parlor games, movies, food, and punch. I have a home theater system, so it should be fun.”
PARTY WOO!!!

The Shipping Club
Is obsessed with getting Lucy and Mike together in some way, shape, or form
Stalks The Group as they prepare for the party.
Sabotages the fruit punch with tequila
Watches the festivities unfold

Stuff Happens
Night starts fairly benignly
Nobody notices the Spiked Punch
Paulo gets fairly drunk and starts hitting on Daisy (who is sober and creeped out)
Abbey (also drunk) gets in fight with Paulo over Daisy’s honor
Daisy tries to stop it.
Meanwhile, David is off being airheaded and destroying the property. Tessa is attempting to subdue him.

Looking on
Mike and Lucy seem to be the only individuals on an even keel.
“The music is too loud.”
“There is no music, Mike.”
Well okay, maybe not.
The Shipping Club is frustrated.

Emotastic
Lucy has a few more drinks. Turns out she’s a depressed drunk, because she walks out to the patio to cry. Mike follows, because he can.
Discussion on Love, Life, and the Pursuit of Happiness
Argument
“Shut up!” yells Mike. Lucy refuses. Mike kisses her to get her to shut up. Stunned silence.

Backfiring Shipping Truck
Plan backfires when Lucy, being fairly drunk, jumps Mike and begins ravishing him. Mike is unable to resist having a hot girl on top of him because he is also drunk. The evening progresses toward NSFW areas.

The Morning After
Paulo and Abbey have punched each other to KOness. Daisy falls asleep worrying about them.
David eventually collapsed, leaving an exhausted Tessa snoring in a chair.
Mike and Lucy wake up snuggled FAR to close together on the patio with a large wet spot underneath them.
Chaos ensues.

8D……… I’m drooling…..

ROFL, I love how the chaos was all caused by a MikexLucy fanclub who just wanted to see their favorite couple finally happen xD That’s so awesome

everything looks pretty solid, aside from the minor details. so… get those and start writing. i’ll read it.

instead of having the shipping club though, you could have FF cat sneak in or something and spike the punch that way.

Pretty good. Could be a legit arc if Taeshi wishes so.

Shipping club allows more lulz. Rule of Funny, I think.

AWWWW. I personally would have loved it to be part of the story. Oh well.

We’ll just say that FF Cat funded them?

Ah, yes.

Perhaps he had had hopes of winning Daisy again that way?

What’s the point of this? Doesn’t this just create a gigantic mess?

I don’t know if it’s like this for anyone else, but seeing the outline to a story that hasn’t been told yet feels like someone explaining a joke.

@ SuitCase: The point behind a fanfiction…is to have fun, yes? Also, can non-canon stuff really make a mess? Offshoot universe is an offshoot.

Rasputin August 1, 2010, 4:12 AM EST.

Comment ID #68212

I think he’s referring more to it being considered canon. Like it would be an interesting fanfiction and I’m in no way discouraging writing it, but for people to be all YES YES MAKE IT CANON THIS WOULD BE PERFECT FOR CANON seems silly to me. There’s way too many holes in the logic, plus I already have ideas set in stone already. Also I don’t want to make too many sex-events because then the comic becomes a mindless sex in high school comic even though the characters are fifteen.

Paulo’s already banged two girls, and Another Path (the next chapter) will be a “what if” that also has to do with sex.. if I make any more it’ll just seem plain awkward, so yeah.

That sounds a lot like backseat driving. You’re driving along, you know the way you’re going, and some dick sitting behind you starts suggesting a “better route.” But fuck that guy, you’ve driven this route a hundred times. You know the traffic and the layout and where all the lights are and where that one asshole cop is hiding every day. If he knows better he can drive himself, right?

@ Taeshi: Okay, that makes a lot more sense. Seemed kind of weird for SuitCase to suddenly be all anti-fanon….

“why don’t YOU do the driving then?”

Comment ID #71793

Ugh… I’m going to have to put this on hold for indefinite amount of time. I’ve decided that I don’t understand The Gang (Lucy, Mike, etc.) well enough to write them in character accurately. Just an FYI.

Bambalooza August 8, 2010, 5:35 AM EST.

Comment ID #71809

Writing this might actually help you become more aware of the characters. Get into their head, etc. You know, an exercise in of itself.

When you posted your outline, there were only two places that I thought were—possibly—OCC.

1) Daisy’s reaction to Paulo’s advances. She might be creeped out, granted, but I would have pegged her more as shocked, embarrassed, maybe somewhat conflicted. They’ve been close friends since forever, so it’s not inconceivable.

1) Drunk Mike: He’d probably be just as loopy as he was during Confrontation, and so not all that lucid at first. He might grow annoyed at Lucy while she whined, or alternatively could be so uninhibited that he just kisses her to make her feel better, though I imagine he would semi-sober up at that point. Though not enough to stop Lucy’s sudden advance. I dunno. *shrug*

As for the rest of them…we have no idea how drunk!Lucy would act, so you’re pretty free to do whatever you want with her. Tess throwing a final get-together actually makes sense if you take her behavior at the beginning of the Vacation Arc into account.

As for the spiking of the punch…well, David already tried that to spice up a previous party, yes? So why not just have him figure out how to do it properly?

Anyway, this story looks like it would be a good one. I’m rather disappointed that you’re putting it on hold. Seriously, even if there are a few inconsistencies, it would be fun anyway.

you could always make one or both of the tessa hater girls sneak in and drug the punch
