[ooc]At the "Door"/ Marketplace Bridge

[bubble_ditz]

Meet your date here!

[jansen_friedh]

This was when Jing started to show a bit of his awkward side. Dancing wasn't something he normally did, but at least he had a good idea of what to do. Once they arrived at the dance floor, he placed a hand on Juliet's waist and made sure not to stand too close right away.

Conversation would probably be a good idea too. "So, Juliet. You're new around here?"

[esoteric_rose]

He smiled. "Yes. I was born not too long ago, with my brother. Everything's been so...new, for lack of a better term." Juliet laughed.

Somehow, he felt as though he knew how to dance. It was a little surprising, but he was happy he'd learned-whenever that was.

[jansen_friedh]

Jing attempted to lead, but his dancing mostly consisted of swaying back and forth. At least, he didn't show that he was too worried about the fact that he wasn't much of a dancer. What he mainly focused on was getting to know Juliet a little better.

"How 'bout jobs? See anything interesting yet? You should check if Smoke's hiring."

[esoteric_rose]

Juliet didn't show his disappointment. Everyone should learn how to dance, but at least Jing was trying. Still, it frustrated him.

He laughed a little. "Already got an offer. I'm going to be working at Miss Companion's spa as her secretary."

[jansen_friedh]

Jing's eyes lit up at Juliet's answer. He had been to the spa before, and although it wasn't the best experience, at least the women were nice to look at. Now he'd have another person to visit at the spa!

"Oh, really? Nice place. I'll come see you sometime," he offered.

But the charm isn't diminished

[esoteric_rose]

Juliet's perfect demeanour cracked. For a split second, there was no sweetness in his face, merely cold and deadly rage that vanished as quickly as it came. "So not only did he bet on so many women during the auction....he made plans with you? Nearly unforgivable."

He folded his hands. "But you were hurt the most. I'm so sad for you."

Ace and Ghost are standing around... body guarding :D

[fail_pilot]

This was not exactly how Ace planned on spending his time when at the ball. Jumping on his heels a bit, he looked around impatiently for something interesting. Because he was just born and too broke to be able to afford a ticket, Ace had to volunteer his time so he could get in for free. So far, though, he's been standing around "body guarding." In other words, not partying. How lame!

...Then again, the chickie that was in charge (her name Bubbles or something?) was pretty hot. Maybe this whole volunteer thing would be worth it if he maybe had the change of a dance with her!

A sparkly dress caught his eye. Whoever that girl was, she was pretty fine. With a smile, Ace watched her past, and when she looked at him he winked and nodded his head. Whoever she was giggled and continued on her way. Ace hoped to see her again inside.

Indeed they are ready for some FAIL!

[redrobinhood]

Man this sucked. Ghost sighed, and pulled absently at the collar of rental Tux Smoke and Bubbles had conned him into wearing. I look like a freak'n penguin! he mentally wailed. Plus he was so hungry he was ready to eat the flower on his lapel. Dances suck.

He eyed the other man forced to body guard with him. He'd never seen him before and since he was volunteering that probably meant he was a newborn. Apparently there was some deal worked out with them so they could attend. So why was he here?

Oh Right. Smoke. In a tux. Was incredibly hot.

He sighed again and turned just in time to see Ace eying up a woman. He smirked. "Real subtle man."

Fail is Ace's middle name... wut XD

[fail_pilot]

Ace looked over to the other guy, who he actually didn't know was standing next to him until just now when he spoke up. "Hey, she liked it," he replied, voice filled with confidence as usual, "Made her feel special, you know?"

Oh but here comes hot girl number two in a little black cocktail dress. Ace was happilly surprised at the number of cute chicks that Edensphere seemed to supply. How many of them could he get a dance with by the end of the night? Ace giggled to himself as he imagined it.

Then he remembered that someone else was standing there with him. "I'm Ace by the way!" he announced, extending a hand to shake the other's.

ha!

[redrobinhood]

"I bet it did." Ghost was bemused by the noob. If he ever bothered to stop to think about it, he would have recognized that Ace was acting a lot like Ghost had when he'd first arrived. But of course that required introspection.

Instead he gave the hot girl in the black dress a sly smile of his own. Ace did have great taste.

"Sup, I'm Ghost." He reached out and shook the other man's hand firmly. "You're new right? What do ya think of the Fishbowl so far?"

[fail_pilot]

Ace frowned as thought of a response to Ghost's question. "It's been really weird so far, actually. Like, at first it was alright because nothing strange was happening, except for the fact that I walked around the Marketplace in only a towel for a bit. Then everything got wet and all these fish started swimming around here... I'm pretty sure that's not normal," he said, nodding to himself as he made every point.

He thought a little bit more about it. "Plus the whole 'no memories thing' is a little creepy, but I guess that doesn't really matter as long as you can live a life somewhere right?" That was the best he could do to turn the situation into a positive light. So he didn't have his memories. So what? He'd just have to make some new memories! That wouldn't be very hard would it?

"Mm, look at the legs on her..." Ace then commented with a whistle, "I gotta get a dance with some of these girls once we get inside. How long've you been in the fishbowl anyways?"

[redrobinhood]

"Walking around...in a towel?" Ghost blinked. Wow this guy was special. "What you didn't get your noob clothes? And yeah flying fish ain't normal," he added absently.

He kept looking at the women Ace was eying...then mentally comparing them to a certain redhead. "Eh. She's alright." Man, I have it bad, don't I? ugh I hope no one ever figures it out...

He shook his head. "Hey if you wanna sneak out of here in a bit and hit the dance floor, go for it. No one's gonna wanna stir up trouble tonight. Its the first party we've had in...well ever." He thought for a moment. "Man, I've been here too long. Since October. And naw, it never gets any less weird."

[fail_pilot]

"Uhh yeah, well the chick that greeted me here... Flight I think her name is, forgot to bring them! So I didn't have any clothes and I had to go buy some," Ace said, and then shrugged as if it really didn't matter to him. Spending the money for the clothes sucked, but really what could he have actually done about it?

"Mmm, October is a long time. But you really mean it? I can just go in?" Ace's eyes lit up at the idea of going in and mingling with the girls. Who did he see? Girl in a sparkly number, girl with nice legs... heck they were all hot, what did it matter?

Putting his hands in his pockets, Ace nodded to Ghost and said, "Alright I'm gonna head in then! I'll see ya in there!" With an enthusiastic turn, Ace promptly walked off to the party.

Waiting for Blood

[wartimenovelty]

Range had arrived early in case there had been an extra pair of hands needed for setting up. He had ended up staring at the changed environment and the people bustling around him, deciding to stay out of the way; at this point he'd only be a distraction to people who knew what they were supposed to be doing. He could do clean-up instead.

He had gone to wait near the Marketplace Bridge instead, smoothing out his tux and watching as the other guests began to arrive, absently wondering whether he'd be able to recognize Blood when she appeared.

[pinkhairedchild]

Blood came running into the ball, little tabi sandals thudding hard as she picked up the hem of her kimono so she could run easier. She was incredibly excited, she was both there with Justice but she had also gotten herself a date in the auction who she expected to have lots of fun with.

She knew who she was looking for, thanks to the pictures Kitty had posted, so it wasn't difficult for her to spot Range standing by the bridge. Sliding to a stop next to him she grinned, tugging on his coat to get his attention. "Hi, I'm Blood and you're my date! You like dancing?"
