The Black Pearl is decked out with true holiday gaiety. Spell-driven St. Elmo's fire still dances along the yardarms, but the glow is even brighter now with the addition of white fairy lights strung along every available piece of rigging-- every one of them gleaming with festive cheer. Fairy lights also adorn the ropes that have been run from

Guests mingle and mill around freely -- the ship's captain among them.

James is evidently one of the first to arrive, looking around with approval at the ship.

Re: Entrances

[pirate_jack]

"James."

And there's the Pearl's captain, smiling and offering a hand.

"Glad you could make it."

Re: Entrances

[scourgeofpiracy]

"Wouldn't have missed it", James says with a smile in return, shaking the offered hand. "Your team have done wonders with the ship."

"She is quite the vessel, isn't she?" he remarks, looking around the deck with pride before turning back to Norrington.

"You'll never see another like her, especially in these modern times."

Re: Entrances

[scourgeofpiracy]

"That I'll agree", Norrington says with a glance around. "Where did you find her?"

Re: Entrances

[pirate_jack]

He allows himself a small, superior smile.

"Let's just say I have my connections, shall we?"

Re: Entrances

[scourgeofpiracy]

James nods understandingly. "Fair enough. Don't want to go giving your sources away."

Re: Entrances

[pirate_jack]

"You know me better than that, old chap."

The smile's less superior now and more charming.

"Still, if there's an opportunity for you to find some benefit in a similar approach, I'll keep you in mind, shall I?"

Re: Entrances

[scourgeofpiracy]

"I'd appreciate that", he says with a smile. "Never know what might come up."

Rachel, of course, was an early guest, though truth told she was fond of late entrances, business did have it's demands! She was a simple, elegant vision in emerald silk cut to the latest Paris standards with her hair free flowing to her waist aside from the single sprig of mistletoe holding one of the flaming waves from her face.

Her first priority was, of course, her table spread, just to double check things. But then she was bright and bubbly, and more than willing to mingle with that killer smile of hers at the ready.

Ichigo's never been much for parties. They're just not his thing. Not being much of a social animal, he was just fine with staying in every night to study his schoolwork while others went out and parties. But today, here, things are a bit different. His life has been all work and no play lately, and he's getting sick of it.

When word of a party reaches him, he ignores it at first. But eventually his curiosity is too much, so here he is.

He's even dressed up and looking good.

Don't ask him about his outfit (the tuxedo, black dress pants, polished dress shoes, the whole works) of course, because he doesn't know a thing about it except that Bar gave it to him and it fits, which is all he cares for. Nothing to be done with his hair, nothing fancy added to his look, but at least he's left his Shinigami gear at home.

Now of course he just looks out of place, but hopefully that will change.

Well, red heads simply had to stick together. It was a rule somewhere, she was certain...though it was certainly charity that had her come over and not mention the condition of said red hair.

"Hello" she all but purred, smile as warm as brandy "Are you one of Jack's friends?"

Re: Entrances

[kurosakiboy]

It's quite a good thing that she doesn't bring up his hair or it's current (permanent, really) state of messiness. It's a touchy subject you see, and would have made for a rather brief and cold meeting.

"Not exactly," he admits, doing his best to smile politely. It's not the sort of thing that comes naturally to him. "I met him once, but when somebody told me that there'd be a party here I figured it'd be a nice way to relax and just forget about all the work and trouble outside of this place."

Re: Entrances

[futures_of_ash]

"Oh, aren't you a dear" she chuckled warmly, eyes firmly off of his hair. Yes, this was a Party. She wasn't going to be crass unless someone else started it.

"To relax! My...that's so very refreshing. Do you realize how many are here to wheel and deal? I'm sure they'll have our heads spinning in no time..."

Re: Entrances

[kurosakiboy]

"Wheel and deal?" He always figured that's what parties were for. Relaxing. But hey, he could be wrong. This is his first. "Aren't you just here to have a good time and relax?"
