So, yes, prom, through no fault of its own, has been a rather lackluster experience for a gaggle of ~30 year olds and one 400+ year old. This, as Scar has discovered in various ways throughout the evening, can be remedied.
The door to the dorm room opens with a bit more gusto than strictly necessary, to reveal the terrifying silhouette of the State Alchemist Killer Wrist Breaker. He's a touch red in the face. His suit jacket is long abandoned, his tie is a rumpled mass in his pocket, and he's unbuttoned his dress shirt enough that the undershirt beneath it is visible. He and buttons don't get along. The knees of his pants are noticeably scuffed, but that detail hardly stands out now that the rest of him is so thoroughly out of Fancy Party Mode.
Cradled in his big, meaty claws is a party-sized plastic jar with a label that suggests it once contained cheese balls. It has been repurposed to contain a crude cocktail of cold brew and tequila, and it's still mostly full.
