Welcome to the Zhang family cabin! It's quite rustic looking and while nicely furnished there may be some dust and spiderwebs scattered due to a lack of use.

There's an upstairs with bedrooms and a bathroom. The main floor has a large living room, dining room, kitchen and study. There's also a cellar, but it's creepy down there.

Outside is the woods and a short walk to the lake. The fall weather has everything looking dead, but kind of pretty in the sunset. We're several miles from civilization but there are a few other cabins writhing a couple miles walk.

The party is about to begin! Live it up, cause today might be your last.

Maxi walks into the room with the people gathered, raising his arms triumphantly.

"Alright! Glad you all made it, is that like, all of you?"

He starts counting heads.

Among the heads are these three:

The nice girl-Sarah. She gives a small wave to everyone looking her way, wandering in towards the living room.

The Ace- Jeff. He's both class president and captain of the track team. He's also scoping the room for ladies.

The nerd- Brian is setting up the music for the night in the corner. A bunch of speakers and a classic iPod plugged in.

Donna is standing near the snack table, watching people!

"Donna...! Nice outfit. But you didn't have to dress up for me. In fact you didn't have to wear anything." Jeff grins her way as he struts over.

Conveniently, Holly is also looking around the room. Mostly it's taking a count of the people there and what their reactions are to one another. She's nibbling on some form of snack all by her lonesome.

Sterling takes a sip out of his red plastic cup. Sprite. He waves with his other hand.

Brian waves Holly over towards him!

Sarah smiles and blushes at Sterling, clearly wanting to come to him but being a little shy.

Sarah catches Sterling's eye, and he blushes too. He hides it by taking another sip from his cup though. She looked like she wanted to participate in the party but didn't know how, so he walks over to chat her up.

"So what's a girl like you doing in a place like this?"

Wait, could that be taken the wrong way, or... Nah, he was being really casual about it.

Holly blinks at the gesture, wondering if the guy's going to want her to help with tech or something. Only one way to find out. She nods and makes her way over to him!

"Hey. What's up?"

"Are you saying I shouldn't be invited?" She feigns offense, maybe too convincingly.

"What do you think?" He nods at his set up. "Also I think I need a nickname. Every DJ needs one."

OH NO.

"What--No! I'm sorry, I didn't mean that--"

CRAP.

"I meant something more like..."

What will make girls not feel upset? UHHHH...

"What's up, Buttercup? Because... You looked like you needed company."

Holly looks over the setup, nodding in approval after a moment of consideration. "Looks good." She gives Brian a smile, looking at him with a thoughtful expression as she considered the options for a name. There were a dime a dozen.

"Well, what kind of feel are you looking for?"

"Something...cool." He snaps his fingers at her in a way that is anything but.

Sarah keeps smiling, thinking Sterling is just going along with it. She puts her hands on her hips and gives him a suspicious look.

"Wouldn't that get you in trouble with all the other girls?"

"You're....sweet."

She smiles at Jeff.

"Some of this food is pretty good. Have you tried it?"

Sarah was smiling, so maybe he's in the clear for now. Sterling gives a half-shrug.

"I think it has. Not everyone likes being called Buttercup. But I don't see how me spending time with you could upset anybody. It doesn't upset me."

Yup that looked like everyone.

Maxi starts marching up to Brian and Holly, hands placed on his hips.

"Ahem. If you're done talking, I think you were supposed to be playing music?"

He glares at Holly.

"Ugh. I didn't invite you to distract people. I didn't even think that was possible for you."

"Sterling, you're such a flirt! I can't take anything you say seriously." She play slaps his arm.

"No, what's good?" Jeff inspects the food closely until Maxi shows.

"Hey, be nice...you're cockblocking me, dude." He whispers the latter part.

"What?" Holly gives it another moment, but before the idea can roll off her tongue, they're interrupted by the "glorious" host. She turns to Maxi and frowns, then waves off the attitude with a vague hand gesture.

"People talk at parties still, don't they?" At least, she hoped so. She turns back to Brian.

"What about tagging 'Battleship' after your name?" Oh crap that wasn't cool, was it?

"Erm, uh, yeah..." He starts looking for something to play.

"Brian Battleship? That's kinda cool." No it isn't.

Sterling blushes again and rubs where he's play slapped.

"I wasn't trying to flirt! But I'm happy to see you're in a good mood?"

He looks around. Mostly to hide his blush.

"This cabin is huge!"

"I li-"

Donna's cut off, and she frowns at Maxi's attitude. However, she doesn't say anything about it, just reaching over to take a carrot and pop it in her mouth. She'll let them work it out on their own.

"Don't talk back to me, bitch." he smiles at Holly. In a weird sense, bitch doesn't really sound like an insult when he says it. But it might still be?

"Just hurry up."

Not wanting to be around for whatever the fuck Brian Battleship was, Maxi keeps doing his rounds, stopping by Sarah and Sterling.

"You fucking BET it's huge! Like my parents always say, if you accidentally run into each other, the place isn't big enough."

What.

"It is!" She agrees with both Sterling and Maxi.

"And they're fine with us being here? I mean, it's nice and I'd hate for us to make a mess or break something."

"More importantly, where's the beer?" Jeff grins.

Well Brian, if the shoes fits...

Holly tries to dig up a better name while she's getting sassed by the host. Normally, she would be insulted. There wasn't exactly any affection between the two of them, but the host was all bright smiles and already breezing on to the next person. And bragging about the cabin. Though it -was- huge, as was his rambling. She turns her attention back to Bran with a shrug.

"Okay, I got you. Let's see..." She gives a thoughtful hum. "Flash Brain?"
