It had been a few days since Sailor Hel had joined the ranks of the Nightravers, and their super awesome leader decided it was a good time to have a meeting. Which, in his mind, was also a good excuse to have a party.
So it was that weekend that it was arranged. Demy could easily sneak away from Hillworth for the day (or two, he'd be gunning for a sleepover!). Hillworth wasn't exactly a good place for a meeting, so clearly the best choice around was Heather's house!
The blonde had arrived first, eagerly ringing the doorbell (five presses in rapid succession should be enough) with one hand, a case of Rockstar raised triumphantly over his head with the other, and a bag on his back with who knew what in it. This was going to be GREAT! Time with his teammates, time to come up with some plans, and time to just relax and have a bit of fun.
Heather just needed to open the door so he could get in and they could set up for Lorelei's arrival!

If it weren't for the fact that Demy was introducing her to a new team member, Heather may have ignored the familiar rapping on her front door. Lucky for him.
She let the earbuds from her MP3 player drop over her shoulders, "Just a minute!" she called out towards to door. Yanking the plug from her sink, she listened as the water drained. Dishes had been done. She could not tolerate a dirty kitchen after she'd finished cooking. She was a little meticulous in that regard. This didn't always go so well with visits from Scheelite. He was... well, he wasn't exactly Mr.Clean, so to speak.
Shoving her drycloth onto a hanger below the sink itself, she made her way to the front door. She could almost see the doofy grin on Schee's face before she even opened it up.
"He....lllllll no." she squeaked out as her eyes were automatically drawn towards the case of Rockstar.
"No. NO." she shook her head. "You expect to actually get something accomplished here and you bring... THAT?" she groaned. It was the last thing that she, or Demy needed.

"Oh come on Heather, it's my thinking juice! You know that!" Demy rang the doorbell one last time for good measure, before wiggling his way past Heather and into the house.
"I need it to keep awake, trust me I don't sleep very much anymore...not that I ever really -did- in the first place but now I need a LOT of convincing but if I'm already tired I might fall asleep and I don't wanna fall asleep during a meeting!" He needed to learn to breathe while talking. At least occasionally! "I won't drink it all! I promise! ...At least not in the first hour or something, I brought it to share. I know, gasp! right?" But yes, I brought it to share and we will TOTALLY get stuff done!"
The blonde had beelined to his favorite spot to sit in the living room and flopped down there. His bag and the Rockstar were set down nearby.

"Oh yeah, be a real shame if you fell asleep." she scoffed as he managed to get his way passed her. She didn't need to turn around to know where he'd landed himself. If nothing else, he was a creature of habit.
"Fine, but if you start to get hyper I'm taking it for the rest of the evening." there was probably no way in hell that she was actually going to be able to wrestle the drink away from Demy, but the threat was lingering, and Demy likely would not be clearly certain on that fact. Best to leave it to linger, let him think on it, and hopefully he'd think better than to argue with her about it.
"Where's this new one, by the way. I figured you'd have them in tow with you?" she peered around outside the door, not seeing anyone. "Did you scare them away already?" her voice was teasing, though she wouldn't be terribly surprised herself if that was the case.

"Start to get -hyper-? Cmon now Heather you know this is good old me!" He had wiggled into a position allowing him to peer over the top of the chair. Grinning.
"She'll be here soon and NO I didn't scare her away already! I just told her to meet me here and came early, because I wanted to beat her here and be awesome. I'm -already- awesome of course but I wanted to be more awesome you see. Our team is going to be -great-."
He had already cracked into his Rockstar and was sipping away at one. It was going to be a long meeting.
"I bet she'll be here in a couple of minutes!"

"I see." she shut the door, sighed heavily, and turned to move towards the boy. As she walked across the floor, kicking his shoes with her foot to the side (she couldn't figure out how he'd gotten out of them, had he even stopped to take them off?), a thought crossed her mind, and she stared at the back of Demy's head.
"Umm... Demy, dear." she started with that clearly superficial sweetness that most anyone who has ever worked in retail is familiar with. In her case, it came from years working the pageant circuit, but it all worked the same.
"Does she know how to get here?"

"...........uhhh.........."
And that was all the reply she got out of Demy before he quickly dug out his cellphone and started furiously tapping away at it. Yeah uh...Lorelei would likely want DIRECTIONS to the meeting place. s**t.
Damnit he was NEW at this!

Zac had warned her about Demy and his tendency to be somewhat forgetful so it was no surprise to her when she recieved the directions the night of the sleepover well after she was packed and ready. Almost twenty minutes went by before a knock on the door was heard.
Standing on the other side was the pigtailed girl holding a red sleeping bag and a backpack while sporting yet another comfortable hoodie and sweats. "Demy... your a dork you know that right?" Shaking her head with a smile she made her way in before putting down the sleeping bag to offer a hand to Heather, "Lorelei Aremati, I'm glad to finally meet you."

Heather had spent the last twenty minutes with a mixture of chastising Demetri for not having actually given the poor newbie directions, and Demy-proofing her house. She'd also had to pry Demy off the cookie tray. Apparently "THEY'RE STILL HOT, DAMNIT DEMY!" was not a deterrent to the over-energetic young man.
When the door had been knocked on, she'd been putting the cookies out on her coffee table, keeping a close eye on the blond. Her head picked up and she gave Lorelei's hand a quick shake."
"Heather." she offered in return, her eyes dropping down to the overnight bag, then over to Demy with that 'I hate you' look. He'd left out the important 'oh yeah I already told the new recruit we were staying the night' note to her.
She'd play along for now, but he was so paying for that one later.
Her attention drew back to Lorelei, "It's nice to finally meet you. Please, take a seat wherever you like." she motioned towards the couch, and the other chair that Demy did not have his a** plopped down in.

"Am not Lorelei! And hey sup, come on in and get comfortable! In the brief moment it had taken Heather to greet the new arrival, Demy had shot out a hand to snatch a cookie and shove it right into his mouth. Oh, he was good. He had to give himself mental pats on the back for amazing cookie theft.
Oh right, maybe he should have told Heather about the sleepover. ...Or not! She couldn't argue it now. Demy: 1, Heather: 0
"SOOOO welcome to Team Nightravers headquarters! There's one more important thing to note..." Here he had moved to dig in his bag, quickly pulling out a sign crafted from a piece of paper and what looked like crayon. Maybe colored pencil. It simple stated "Captain's Chair" and was quickly attached to the chair he had his a** plopped in. "Mine."

"Yes you are, you sent me a whole days worth of text about this and forgot to respond to the one where I actually ask you where I was supposed to go. Thus, you are a dork." She turned back to Heather shrugging slightly, "I'd offer for my house to be used, buuuut Rho would probably ruin everything simply by existing. His place is a horrible mess."
Moving into the other room she placed her stuff beside the sofa before flopping down slouched over with a sigh. "So much bigger here too. I need to get out of the house more."
Slowly one eyebrow would raise up over deep red eyes as she watched Demi claim a chair. "This isn't your house you can't claim her furniture, by that logic I can make a sign to put on your bed that says 'Artillery Cannons Bed' and keep it to myself and have sleep overs with Zac all weekend."

If Demetri Wright was a cat, at the moment his back would be raised, fur sticking straight up, and teeth bared in a hiss.
Thankfully he was not a cat, but he looked just as equally pissed off. "One." He held up a finger to illustrate his points as he ticked them off. "Hillworth is boy's only. I unfortunately go to Hillworth. You are not a boy. Doesn't work now does it? Two! Teleporting, I know it can be done. It's not a good idea to teleport into someone's room. Especially your commanding officer's room. I would probably hit the hell out of you with something before you even got a few steps, and I -am- in the room a fair amount of the time Zac is there. Finally. Three! You have sleepovers with my boyfriend without telling me and I'll kill you myself."
Here he grinned, a slightly crazy twitchy little grin. "and I'm so not joking. I don't mind you hanging out with him! He needs friends! But you get a little too close for my comfort, and I will kill you. And I have helped kill a Senshi before, so don't think I can't do it."

Oh for the love of... this was off to a great start. Heather let Demy get what he said off his chest before walking over to him and snapping her fingers in his face.
"One," she said, almost mocking of his own words, "breathe." she motioned for him to take a deep breath, eying him carefully, before turning her head towards Lorelei.
"Just for future reference, try to keep pot shots on someone elses man to yourself. Last I checked, it rarely goes over well for anyone involved." she looked back towards Dem.
"Eat a cookie, calm the ******** down, or I will put you in the back room until you do. There will be no threatening of our teammates in my house, and we will keep this civil, okay? I'm certain she was only joking, you need to chill. Eat a cookie or something, and no rockstar right now."

So that was the slightly off kilter part of Demy that Zac had mentioned. Apparently she had just stumbled on the biggest red button in the world with the black DO NOT PRESS text all over it.
Holding up her hands she made a small heart towards Demy, "You need to learn how to take a joke Demy, I wouldn't actually do that, just making a point. Though teleporting into your room I would hope you would stop to think for a moment before hitting me. What if I was hurt and needed help? Also to be honest Zac, having a sleep over? C'mon you know he would never do that."
Leaning over she picked up a cookie and took a bite before staring at Demy very hard for a moment before nodding to Heather, a small 'thank you' for telling Demy to calm the hell down. "So... besides laying down the ground rules of don't touch Demy's Zac, what now?"

He breathed. He grabbed that cookie. He even ate said cookie. But it was still a few moments later before he managed to calm himself down. He was still not exactly pleased. He'd get over it. Maybe.
"Fine." He grumbled to Heather, avoiding her eyes for the moment. Man he was acting like a scolded kid. A captain being scolded by his lieutenant. The relationship between these two was interesting, to say the least.
To Hel he first offered "Well, teleporting into my dorm would still be a bad idea. It's cramped in that school, they're -really effin strict- and if they found you there I think they'd kick all of our asses. ...But if you ever need -help-, I would help you." He left it at that, choosing to quickly move on.
"Party time? Even if I'm not allowed Rockstar. Boo." Pfft, meeting? What meeting? OH RIGHT, -that- meeting...
