[It's 6 p.m. on the dot, and the East Wing ballroom is totally decked out.

[Look. Up in the sky. Is it is a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's just Lavi up in the balcony messing with a very expensive looking digital camera. Who knows where he got it, or how long it will take him to break it]

[Anyway, as self-appointed official photographer of the Yule Ball, he is up there taking pictures of all the happy (or perhaps grumpy) couples. They will make the best Christmas cards/gifts]

[So if you're happen to look his way, smile! Flash]

[write_silence]

[glances up, and winces at the bright flash. Ow. This is when sign language comes in super handy, really]

What in the world are you doing?

[besomeothername]

[Puts a finger to his lips and signs one-handedly. Probably looks like he's talking like he's drunk. Or with a stutter]

Taking pictures of the couples!

[Is he being a bit stalkery? Why yes]

[write_silence]

[grins. Oh, Lavi, your antics never fail to amuse him]

Why?

[besomeothername]

Because they won't think to take pictures themselves. I'm providing a service.

[write_silence]

And are you sure it's a service they want? ... Are you taking good pictures or embarrassing pictures, Lavi?

[besomeothername]

[Wrinkles his nose at that a little. It is a service they would want, right? This is something that would be nice of him to do. ... Right?]

I'm trying to take pictures of the couples dancing on the dance floor.

[write_silence]

[smiles and nods] Just don't let the embarrassing ones get out, okay?

[besomeothername]

Well not out to the public. But if it's a cute embarrassing, then it should be framed and given to the couple in person.

[write_silence]

[he can't really argue with that, and he grins and nods, then wanders over to swipe some food before making his way up to stand next to Lavi and watch as his friend continues to take pictures]

[besomeothername]

It's nice, isn't it? Just having a break and seeing people be happy for once.

[write_silence]

Yeah.

[he speaks aloud this time - the first time Lavi will ever have heard him do so, apart from when he was cursed]

[heartsbook]

[Comes up from behind him.] What're you doing?

[besomeothername]

[Doesn't even turn around, but smiling all the same]

For you to stand next to Allen so I can get a picture of the two of you together.

[heartsbook]

Taking holiday pictures now, are we?

[besomeothername]

I am. Are you going to be one of the willing or not?
