Valentines Dance, Town Hall, Saturday Evening

Feb 11, 2012 06:34

The town hall had been transformed into a ballroom fit for a queen (and/or king. Or multiples thereof). The ceiling was resplendent in ribbons of royal purple, gold and white, and castle murals adorned the walls.

As they entered, tonight's guests were offered their choice of crown or tiara. Over by the photographer who doesn't have a thread ( Read more... )

Arrival/Mingling [V-Day 2012] godgavemecable February 11 2012, 13:37:33 UTC

Show off your dresses/tuxes/formalwear, ooh and ahh at your sparkly new headgear...

Re: Arrival/Mingling [V-Day 2012] hasadestiny February 11 2012, 14:56:46 UTC

Lex had no date, Lex needed no date. He did however have a very well made tux, and what could only be described as a slink in his step.

He now also had a crown jauntily perched on his head.

"Deciding to preemptively crown yourself king of the party just to make it easier on everyone?" Peter asked as he passed by Lex.

Re: Arrival/Mingling [V-Day 2012] hasadestiny February 11 2012, 15:21:14 UTC

Lex grinned. "I figured it was less presumptuous than emperor," he replied.

Punch and Food [V-Day 2012] godgavemecable February 11 2012, 13:38:07 UTC

There was a heavy emphasis on foods considered aphrodisiacs by many Earth cultures, for some reason, but otherwise contained the usual moddable selection. Also the aforementioned unspiked punch.

Re: Punch and Food [V-Day 2012] lockestheway February 11 2012, 15:00:41 UTC

Peter took a cup of punch while the going was unspiked, then put some food on his plate. There. That ought to get him set for the hour of socialising he'd scheduled for himself.

"What, not a big dancer?" Rebecca teased, sauntering over and taking a seat next to him in generally the sexiest way possible. "I can't say I'm shocked."

Re: Punch and Food [V-Day 2012] lockestheway February 11 2012, 15:30:48 UTC

"I thought I'd leave the dancing to people who are better at it than I am," Peter said. It sounded like modesty, but what it was was reality.

Modesty tended to go over better.

Shadowy Corners [V-Day 2012] godgavemecable February 11 2012, 13:38:41 UTC

For escaping the dancing. Good luck escaping the glitter, though.

Re: Shadowy Corners [V-Day 2012] wrongkindofsith February 11 2012, 15:34:41 UTC

Cara very quickly retreated to the nearest shadowy corner, where she could watch and lean.

...and every so often, sneeze.

Stupid flowers.

Re: Shadowy Corners [V-Day 2012] withasword February 11 2012, 15:36:23 UTC

Grand entrances were not Kate's thing. It was a miracle she was here at all.

What it came down to was simply that cooping herself up in her room with this much energy would probably end badly. She'd tried hitting things. That didn't work. She'd tried running. That hadn't worked either. She'd tried cold showers.... There was a pattern developing.

What she hadn't tried was putting on a dress and spending her evening in a glitter filled room. She was well aware that 'pretty' wasn't part of her charm, but she could pull of 'exotic' at times. The effect of aforementioned dress was somewhat ruined by her posture, leaning arms firmly folded, against a wall, while she pondered dousing herself with her own drink to snap out of this.

"Well, I'm impressed," Toby noted as he wandered over. "You clean up nice."

Chaperones [V-Day 2012] godgavemecable February 11 2012, 13:39:01 UTC

Where they can hang out and grumble about "kids these days" or whatever it is chaperones do.

Re: Chaperones [V-Day 2012] fates_jaye February 11 2012, 22:16:41 UTC

At least one chaperone totally existed! Though it was Jaye and she was more wishing for the snark corner back.

Dance Floor [V-Day 2012] godgavemecable February 11 2012, 13:39:44 UTC

The music selection may be heavy on the slow, sappy songs tonight, but there's a little something for everyone's taste available if you just mod poke the DJ about it.

Re: Dance Floor [V-Day 2012] harpy_daughter February 11 2012, 23:38:41 UTC

Well, if Surreal was going to be here, she was going to be out on the dance floor.

It was an area she tended to dominate, and fairly well. Waltz, tango, any formal dances she had to learn under Sadi's patronage, as well as things more suited to the music.

Surreal knew her body, and she knew it well. She could dance almost as well as she could kill, and she found it almost as much fun, too.

Re: Dance Floor [V-Day 2012] wrongkindofsith February 12 2012, 03:56:55 UTC

Cara had been working the glaring at watching people from the shadows thing, but this piqued her interest enough that she graduated to watching from the side of the dance floor.

Of course the damn sneezing pretty much ruined any hopes of being stealthy at it.

Re: Dance Floor [V-Day 2012] harpy_daughter February 12 2012, 18:19:45 UTC

Surreal usually knew when she was being watched, but the sneeze pretty much ruined any attempt to pretend she was unaware of it, yes.

She swiveled to face Cara, and held out on hand invitingly. "The music is horrible," she deadpanned, "but at least it's not a funeral dirge."
