[color=gray][b]Interactions:[/b][/color] Bee [@Hey Im Jordan] Brad & Mitch [@BeastOfDestiny]
[hr]Cute?! Funny?! This girl was actually serious about this whole date thing?! Em was completely dumbfounded by Bee’s admission, her lips twisting into an embarrassed expression as she gazed at the other woman. She even felt slightly more sobered up by this revelation. Nobody had ever expressed interest in her before, so this was… new. The finger jabbed into Bee’s chest fell to Em’s side, and there was a slight flutter of hope in her chest. 

[color=c4df9b]“Wait… This washnt shupposed to go like this.”[/color] She cocked her head, and murmured something incoherent under her breath. For a moment, Em seemed to be in quiet contemplation, drilling her gaze into Bee’s own as if trying to pry the truth from her. A slight dopey smile spread on Em’s face when she came to her own conclusion about Bee’s words. [color=c4df9b]“I...believe you, but I gotsh a lot of questionsh.”[/color] Her tone was even and reasonable for once tonight.

[color=c4df9b]“And I… think you’re cute too, even ifsh I don’t know you very well. Kinda alwaysh have thought that, but.... We can talk aboutsh thish later… Causesh you’re right. I gotta shing tonight.”[/color] Em acknowledged. She fidgeted with her hands as she talked, uncomfortable with conveying her own interest but trudging along nonetheless. [color=c4df9b]“Just… I guessh… Thanksh… Thish me made me feel nice. I’ll shee you later, Bee.”[/color] With anxious steps, the youngest Snype gave her new… friend… a wave before clumsily making her way toward the stage where she and her family were supposed to perform. 

[hr]Zack snorted from his vantage point, carefully observing the scene around him. His sister actually had not one, but [i]two[/i] dates, one of which he had to pay for since Em, at least to his knowledge, didn't have any money. Judging by her bearing while she chatted with one her girl date, she had completely forgotten that she had accidentally bid on that Archer guy. 

On the other hand, Kitty was, in Kitty fashion, causing some kind of scene with Levi. She also had two dates: One with Levi, and one with Brad, who he believed was the brother of Em’s lady friend. The whole Kitty dramatics got a little spicier when Zack noticed that Lily Barker had shown up. Zack hadn’t been intimately in tune with the drama, but even he knew that Lily had crushed hard on Levi back in the day. Guess she still wasn’t over it, judging by the silent breakdown she was happening as she stared at Levi and Kitty. He probably would’ve stepped in to help the poor girl, but a blonde woman he didnt recognize appeared to want to support Lily.

Well, if things were settled here, he guessed he’d start setting everything up on stage. Problem was, that was kind of a “whole band” situation, and right now his band was [i]distracted[/i]. Out in the dispersing crowd though, he noted two fellows that might be willing to help. Slinking from the shadow of the stage, he quickly sauntered up to the duo, smiling all the way.

[color=C70E13]“Hey, you two wouldn’t happen to want to help a man in need would you? I have a whole thing of band equipment I need to unload, but my sister’s drunk and my cousin’s… probably also drunk.”[/color] Zack peered genuinely at the older muscular man, and then at the more androgynous person. Yeah, these two looked like they’d be a great help! [color=C70E13] “The jobs pretty easy, and I can pay you a little too for your time. Just gotta hook some amps up, set the drums up, make sure the laptop and the backing tracks are sorted…”[/color] He explained their potential duties, never faltering in his beaming. Hopefully they’d accept, or maybe he could get Talie and Reya to help again…
