Zombie raised her eyebrow as he just started at the Can. She opened hers and took a sip feeling the kick of the alcohol. "Aren't you going to drink it?" She asked him curiously and watched him back up against the wall. She had a feeling she would end up having to drag him after her the whole night, just to get him to socialize.

Jack looked back at the can and repeated her actions, opening it and taking a sip. It left a tingling taste in his mouth that he didn't really like. He swallowed it anyway. He wondered if he could "misplace" it while she wasn't looking or something. He nodded. "There. I drank it."

"Don't like it do you?" She asked knowingly. She laughed and held her hand out for the can. "You don't have to drink it." She looked around and spotted a Can of Coke in the open cooler. She grabbed that and held it out. "Maybe you'll like this better." She said and walked over to the Stereo. They needed some better dance music so she pushed in a Mixed CD and put it on 'Low'.

He gladly pressed the can into her hand and took the one offered him. This tasted better. It was familiar. This was it, the drink he knew, but where he knew it from was a mystery. The music changed and he was relieved to find it wasn't too loud. Maybe this wouldn't be so bad.

Zombie took Jack's hand and just put it down on some table figuring someone would just grab it later on. She smiled as he seemed to like the Coke better. "There ya go." Now come on! You need to get out there." She said and pushed him over towards the dance floor.

"Wh-huh?" He stumbled toward the other people and stared at her quizzically. "What... What do you want me to do?" He asked, bewildered.

"Stop being a Turtle and Interact!" She said smiling motioning him to go and socialize with the other people at the Party. That was the point. People to have fun and just dance, and meet people. Duh.

Jack shook his head. "I don't like them. I don't want to." He came back toward the edge of the room, away from the people, tense, with his eyes darting. "I don't like this..."

"And what are you going to do when you get out in the world?" She asked hands on her hips and Beer still in hand. She felt like a mother trying to get their child to go and play with the other kids in a Kindergarten class.

"..." Jack didn't want to go anywhere. "Why? Can't I just... stay here?" He'd never even considered leaving, especially if he didn't learn his past.

Pearl decided that even if Zombie had ruined her party, she'd be the bigger person and at least show up to Zombie's. If she hated it, she'd leave. She dawned a far less formal attire for the evening, a denim cut off skirt, and a shirt that actually bared her mid-drift. She could be their kind of party. She could enjoy this...maybe. d**n if she wasn't going to try! "Hi Zombie...." she said, almost passing her before speaking, trying not to sound too catty.

Jack watched another girl approach and squirmed uncomfortably when he detected a small vibe from her, seemingly directed at Zombie. It wasn't a nice vibe. He shook his head, to clear it. He wondered if that was his power. He'd only known that things moved around him, he'd never felt an emotion that wasn't his. He hoped Zombie would respond to the other girl. Then he could slip away.

"Hi." Pearl stopped, her eyes falling on a boy she'd never seen before. "I'm Pearl." her instant charm was back on, giving off a confidant air. "Who might you be?"

"Heyy Pearl!" Said Zombie happily as she waved to her. At least she was a big enough person to show up at her Party, and though they didn't like each other. It was nice to see they could be in the same room. Then she smiled more when she talked to Jack. There he would get some social interaction, even if his Soul was a deep purple. Poor thing was Horrified. Was talking to people that scary?

"Jack." He replied so quietly he was unsure if she heard him. He was getting used to the name Logan had unknowingly attatched to him. His eyes found the carpet and stayed there. Maybe if they noticed he wasn't looking at them, they'd ignore him.
