She just waits for the meeting

About ten minutes after Izzy entered the throng of students, a sharp two-fingered whistle drew them to attention. Izzy turned to see an RA—the smiley woman who had given Izzy her keycard—standing on a plastic chair. Once the attention was focused on her, she gave a broad smile and shouted, “Welcome new Gaels!!”

A round of cheers sounded from the gaggle of excited frosh. Izzy joined in with a moderately enthused clapping. Smiley started to run through a speech: mostly explaining residence rules and policies, elucidating the building's features, and so on. Izzy tossed her eyes about the crowd, noting that she wasn’t the only one paying half attention. For starters, anyone lucky enough to be standing near a man had their focus on him. A few others, though, had similar levels of disinterest to Izzy.

One such person was a femboy; of the taller variety which suggested a penis that was just small, rather than tiny. He was looking around, bored, as Smiley started to run through where to find the laundry machines. He caught Izzy’s eye. He smirked, then made a mocking and highly performative ‘blabbermouth’ gesture regarding Smiley, causing Izzy to grin and snort a bit. The femboy slid through the crowd to her.

Leaning toward Izzy, he whispered, “It’s all a bit lame, huh?”

Izzy shrugged, and quietly replied, “Why’d you come then?”

“Nothing else going on, at least until tonight…”

Izzy frowned. “What’s tonight?”

The femboy grinned like the cat that got the canary, and said, “Friend of mine’s in a fraternity. Biiiig party tonight.”

That confused Izzy. Queen’s didn’t have frats. They’d been banned for decades.

Her lack of understanding must have shown on her face, because the femboy explained, “It’s not directly affiliated with the school, but they follow the fraternity model to a tee.”

Huh. Izzy thought, then asked, “What’s it called?”

“Alpha Pi Beta”, he replied, and casually added, “You should come tonight. Not to sound like a weird middle-aged swinger, but I like your vibe. Bring a friend if you like. Starts at nine.”

Izzy blinked as he turned. Before she could ask any clarifying questions, he had slid back into the crowd. That was... a little unexpected. Still, she had wanted invites to parties.

As Smiley transitioned into a tour of the rez building’s public facilities, Izzy thought over the offer. She didn’t even have the name of her inviter, and he seemed to have left the crowd when she wasn’t looking. She pulled up a map on her phone. Alpha Pi Beta… Yeah, there it was; a large house in a residential neighbourhood only about a fifteen minute walk from campus.

What the hell, Izzy thought. Could be fun!
