Annabelle kicked open the door. A deep blue hoodie, black jeans, and checkered shoes were worn, but the creepiest thing was her eyes. She had gotten color contacts which made her whole eye look black, even the white.

Jace had seen worse and honestly, he didn't even notice her eyes when he first glanced up, because his eyes instantly went back to his guitar. "Oh! Hey, Annabelle! You ready to practice?" He asked cheerfully, checking his phone once more before slipping it back into his pocket and looking at Annabelle once again, which he then paused, blinking in surprise. "Oh... nice eyes."

Annabelle had tapped a picture of the character the costume was on the back of her bass. She nodded. "Ready when you are!" she said in a British accent.

"Great," Jace said and then laughed at her accent. "Nice British accent." He readjusted the yellow beanie that he still wore atop his head and grinned at her. "So, what song do you want to start with? Shut Up and Dance?"

"Sure. Just let me tune Susan. Also, on the night, can you call me Tamara?" Annabelle sat on a speaker that doubled as a good place to sit and started tuning the bass.

"Sure. Is that who you're dressing up as?" Jace asked. He actually ended up having two costumes -- the superhero one so that no one would know it was him singing, then he was meeting Drake and Ash in the boys' locker room to get a makeover into a cheap vampire costume. It would be fun. "And are we still doing the whole 'no one knows who we are' thing? Like, super secret live music?"

"Yeah. I'm staying in this costume the whole dance, so try to remember I'm Tamara."

Jace laughed. "Alright, that'll be fun. I'm changing after the live music. Well, maybe I'll chill in the other costume for a while, but..." he shrugged. "I guess I want people to recognize me eventually."

"People don't really find me as the type to go to dances. I want to keep it that way. So Ill be talking in a British accent the whole night."

"Well, I guess you'll be easy to find?" Jace shrugged. "I don't usually go to dances, either. Just to hook up the music for Drake, then maybe watch awkwardly from the corner. But I, uh... I guess I have some friends now that I'm thinking maybe I'll get to see."

I swear if someone tries to get me on the dance floor, I'll cry. At my old school I was always teased for my... unique dance style." Tamara sighed.

Tamara finished tuning and plugged in her bass and strummed it.

"Ready to start?" Jace asked. He pulled his yellow beanie down further on his head, and then replaced his hands on his guitar.

Tamara nodded, tying up her hair with a blue ribbon.

Baily "Bails" Gardner | Female | 15/Freshman | WintersCatch
Baily is 5"4 and on the heavy side. Along with her dark skin and shy nature, she is often bullied by her peers. She likes to garden fixing things. Her black hair is extremely curly, and is usually in a simple bun, and her eyes are brown. Her clothing mostly consists of baggy shirts and jeans. The day she doesn't smell of dirt, plants, or anything else gardeny is the day pigs fly. She has a cheerful nature and loves cheesy jokes. She doesn't talk much unless it's about something she knows a lot about, as in biology. When in awkward situations she usually shares some sort of weird fact she knows. She loves helping others but will most likely only help if asked as she is too shy to approach people she doesn't know. Her parents are divorced and she lives with her dad and brother in a apartment. She's incredibly close to her brother, not so much with her dad after the divorce.
N/A | Works with her dad and brother in a florist shop | Theme song is "Idea of Her" ~ Whitney Woerz
*Coughs nervously* I've always hated joining large rps but I'm bored

((You're good, Winter. XD
It's actually the day of the Halloween Dance, which will, in real life, go from today until Halloween. >.> I think?
Everyone else, just finish up where you are and then we can move onto the dance?
..... And I still don't know what to make Jace's super secret costume. >.>))
Jace was nervous, even though it was just Annabelle in the room. Nervously, he rubbed his yellow beanie once again for comfort, and then started the opening sequence for Shut Up and Dance.
--
Drake did as he was instructed, although he did also look over the other costumes there, trying to decide what Jace would look best in.

((Tom, I figured we could do a little practice and then skip and they can say goodbye? XD
When is Halloween? Is it Tuesday? O.o Hmm... We can just run the dance until everyone is done.))

Tamara added in the bass at the correct moment, playing the right notes and softly bobbing her head while the drums and other instruments on the track started.
((Imma just have Annabelle's friend John be a side character.))

((I do believe. XD They're singing all the songs together, right? We can just wait on the lyrics until when the actual dance starts and just say "They sang the songs and did good!"))
Jace started singing at the appropriate time with lyrics I don't have time to look up.

((Okay, I'm calling Annabelle Tamara so I can get used to it for when the dance happens. Just so you don't get confused.))
Tamara joined, harmonizing as she played her part from memory. She had been in a Drama class where she learned the proper way to sing louder without a mic, but since she was sure they'd have mics at the dance, she didn't use the technique.

"Oh, I'm into a lot of different types of music. Not really rap or heavy metal, but anything else I like." Jace explained, and then his face turned bright red before he said the next part. "And I can play a lot of Bruno Mars." -- ((Jace-- ^.^)) "Oh perfect!" Victoria replied. The poor dear had no idea what was going to come at the dance. She truly thought it was just a costume, which she was excited for. She wrinkled up her nose at the idea. "I think I'll pass on dressing up with Vince." It wasn't exactly an idea that she liked the thought of. Ash, for the first time in her life, was at a loss for words. She had thought that this was what she wanted -- to go to the dance with Vincent. But now, with the option laid out before her, she realized that she really didn't. She had only met him once, for goodness sakes! And he was smooth with his words, but that was the kind of guy she didn't want to date. Luckily, she heard her phone go off with some text. Although she was sure it was just a text from Drake or a cheerleader, she decided to use this moment to escape answering for the time being. "I need to get that." Ash said and headed back to the beach. With her hands still wet, she picked up the phone to see who it was. Her dad, wondering why he got a call from the school saying she wasn't there. Well. She would probably be grounded, but oh well. "I have to go. It's my dad." Without even waiting for his reply Ash pulled her shorts back on and pulled her shirt over her head. She didn't live terribly far from the beach, so it was an easy walk. "I'll, uh, see you tomorrow?" She asked and then walked away, sending a reply to her dad and then a text to Jace. -- Drake's eyes lit up. "Oh my gosh, Maeve! You are a genius!" He started rummaging through other boxes until he pulled out a couple pairs of scissors, which he dropped on the ground beside the box, and then some glue and tap and -- best of all -- glitter. "Maeve, I genuinely love you right now." It was, of course, just Drake being Drake and actually held no power. (I didn't want to have to dig this out later) |

((Alright!))
Jace sang along with her until they reached the end of the song. "Alright, that was pretty good." He said.
((Do you want to skip to the end of their practice session?))

Tamara grinned as they finished the last song. "That was awesome! Are we doing it in that order?" she asked.

Jace shrugged. "I don't see why not. It went well." He said with a grin. "So, I'll see you here tomorrow before the dance starts so we can set up?"
