“Don't worry, Miss Morgendorffer. No other faculty members are coming.” He looked at Jane. “Other than Defoe of course. She'll be here shortly.”
“Hey, We're Mystik Spiral. But we might change our name. Welcome to my sister Janie's Sweet Sixteen Party.”
Mystik Spiral then launched into one of their older songs, confusing their audience. “Huh?” Angie asked.
“What song is this?” Brittany asked.
“I'm not sure,” Angie answered.
DeMartino followed Jane and Daria out into the yard. “I see that they haven't improved much,” he commented.
“Huh?” Daria asked.
“They sound almost exactly the way they did at school,” DeMartino answered.
“That's not surprising,” Daria commented. “Given Trent's proclivity for sleep.”
DeMartino chuckled at that.
Claire Defoe knocked on the door. Jane answered it.
Andrea heard the band start. “Of course.” She then found what she was looking for. She took the tub of paint out and put it next to Jane's easal. She then checked to make sure the closet was as she found it. She went to the window and carefully looked out. She saw Upchuck by himself next to the gazebo. 'Good.' She then looked around again. There weren't many people near him. She grabbed the tub of paint and smiled.
“There are a lot of people here,” Claire said when she entered the yard.
“Daria's concerned about it,” Jane commented.
“That's not surprising,” Claire said.
Dani Moreno looked around at the growing crowd. She knew something was going to happen. She sighed as she looked for Jane. She knew where Daria was. She knew where her brother was. (Fully lost in the music.) She then saw Jane and Ms. Defoe enter the yard. “Good.”
“Hi.”
Dani turned. “Hi...”
“Anna Coultard,” the blonde girl said as she held out her hand.
“Do you know Jane?” Dani asked.
“Not really, but I'd like to talk to her,” Anna answered. “Along with the Morgendorffers.”
“And you haven't at school?”
“Daria spends all her time with Jane, and Quinn with Sandi, Stacy and Tiffany.”
“I see,” Dani said.
“So, I'll see if I can talk to them tonight.”
Andrea came downstairs and heard another group knock on the door. 'The yard is already crowded,' she thought. She opened the door. “Jen!” she said in surprise.
“Hi!” Jen Burns said.
“There are a lot of people here,” Andrea said, knowing that Jen didn't do well in crowds.
“I knew that,” Jen admitted.
“So, you decided to come here anyway?”
“Yes.”
“Come in.”
Jen entered the room and looked around. “They're all outside?”
“Yes,” Andrea answered.
“I'll come out.”
Daria looked around. The number of people was growing. “This is getting out of control,” she said as she looked near the Gazebo to find Dani talking with a slightly familiar blonde. “I'll join them,” she decided.
“Oh, Daria's coming,” Dani said.
“I see that,” Anna said.
“Hi,” Daria said as she came up.
“How are you doing?” Dani asked, seeing that Daria seemed to be looking around stressfully.
“Better than I expected,” Daria said.
“That's good,” Anna said with a smile.
“And you are?” Daria asked.
“Anna, Anna Coultard.”
“Now I remember,” Daria murmured. “You have a reputation for smiling a lot.”
“I guesss so,” Anna murmured. “As you have a reputation for being antisocial and cutting people up for various reasons.”
“I tell it like I see it,” Daria responded. “But you'll note that I'm not doing it at the moment.”
“That's true,” Anna said. “I thought I would try to befriend Jane and yourself.”
“I'm sure you've also heard that I'm hard to befriend,” Daria said.
“Of course!” Anna responded with her usual smile.
Daria sighed.
“Not that hard,”Dani said.
“Maybe,” Daria considered.
Jen and Andrea came out into the yard. It was quite crowded, causing the former to let the latter lead the way.
Spiral began to play, starting with Mr. Normal. Most of teens started dancing.
