welcoming ball begins
[It's quiet as night falls on Balamb Garden, quiet enough to hear the crickets chirping on the ground below and the sea waves lapping the shore in the distance. The sky is clear and full of stars. The halls of Garden are empty except for a couple cadets here and there -- indeed, even the faculty seems to be missing from their usual posts.
At exactly 2100, as soon as the dinner rush ends, the Garden chime sounds and the intercom clicks on. Once again, the Headmaster speaks to the Garden.]
The Welcoming Ball is now beginning. Your attendance is requested at [2F] Ballroom.
I repeat, the Welcoming Ball is now beginning. Your attendance is requested at [2F] Ballroom. The ball will run until 2400. Students leaving the ball after curfew are to return to their dorms immediately.
The ball and its festivities tonight are being sponsored very generously by the Ruby group.
[After the announcement, the intercom falls silent. The faint sound of music can be heard from the second floor of the building.]
( Mod note: You may participate in the dance in comments to this post, or opt to make your own new post/log.
The dance isn't mandatory, so students that choose not to attend won't be punished. The headmaster, Garden faculty and instructors are all present at the ball, so troublemakers are free to roam until 2400. The dance itself will last from 2100-2400 in the second floor ballroom and the music will be the same kind of upbeat peppy orchestrated pieces that the game used. Caterers will roam offering drinks and refreshments to attendants, as well a stationary stand for punch and food is offered.
Should players have any questions left unanswered feel free to ping the mods on AIM or via PM. )
