this night will go up in flames
This story takes place over a single night of drinking, dancing, and scandal. The party is a Masquerade, thrown by one of the Hughes daughters herself, the one that's still home, at least. The Hughes manor is filled with young adults who want to do nothing but let their cares and worries melt away for one night of fun, especially the hostess, the first Hughes child, who wants to stop thinking about him, even though he's been gone for over a year and focus on someone who is worth a bit more of her time. Then there is a very unexpected party crasher, who is there to stir up both trouble and emotions, especially when it comes to her, who just so happens to be her sister. We can't forget her, the girl who doesn't want to believe that rumors that her step brother is back in town and is afraid she will spend the night with the weight of a guilty secret pressing down on her shoulders, just waiting for him to show up and ruin everything, but most importantly the relationship that she has slowly been developing with him. He has also decided to crash this little shindig after being gone for over a year, no longer caring about the secret she shares with her or that their secret wasn't only between the two of them, but also him, who threatened to expose said secret if he ever came near her again, nevermind that what happened wasn't solely his fault. And why is it that she showed up back in town on the same day as him? Is there something going on between the two of them? That definitely wouldn't be a good thing.. Oh, if anyone were to have a problem with that, it would be him, who, if you wanted to get technical about it, is still with her, seeing as they were together up until she left without much warning or actually breaking up with him, leaving him with some serious trust issues, since they had been together for about half of their high school lives. Ever since she left, he's been slowly developing a relationship with her, who he is still curious about, along with what her actual intentions are. And last, but most certainly not least, there's him. The keeper of his and hers secret. He's almost always been hers, except for one night shortly after they finished high school, when he drunkenly slept with her and got caught. However, seeing as she just up and left, he stayed with her, not even knowing what happened between him and her at a party a week before he left.
What a tangled web of lies and secrets they've managed to weave..

You'll need to PM me about the secrets of your chosen Roles once you're ready, seeing as they do have a certain importance in the story.
the rules, obey 'em
I'm your GM, listen to me. You may call me Ali or Queenie, whatever floats your boat.
Don't ignore PM's from me, I will know if you do and all it will accomplish is creating a bit of soreness between you and I, which I do not want. I understand not replying first, or later on from when you read it, but not refusing to reply at all.
Maturity and Literacy is a must. If you're fourteen or younger and you write like it, this Roleplay isn't for you, so hit that little red "X" at the top of your browser right now. If you're that young, and you're comfortable with mature content (to the extent the site rules will allows us), then go ahead and submit a sheet! Glad to have you!
I do reserve, but only for twenty-four hours. However, if you've submitted a partial, that can be extended as long as I see that you're working on it here and there.
Quality over Quantity, always. Whether it's posts or character sheets, I don't care, as long as it's to my liking.
Having trouble finding a theme song? PM me and we'll talk.
Please no Mary-Sues or anything of the like. I will tell you now that none of these characters are the good, flawless types, not even close.
These characters are far from emo, scene, or hipster types. Don't even go there, please. Think Gossip Girl-Esque, you know? Make sure the photos are fitting to how you interpret the role. I'll lead by example.
I'll try not to play favourites, but you know, my friends are my friends. Can't help that.
