Halloween Masquerade Ball

[rapturescreed]

Who: The Newcomer Political Party and The Newcomers!
When: October 27th, 7:00pm till Morning Sirens.
Where: The Newcomer Community Center
Summary: Time for some Halloween Masquerade Fun!
Warnings: Anything is possible!

The Community Center has been transformed into a sophisticated autumn dance hall, with bits of Halloween decorations around the room. When the door opens, you find yourself in the hall before the main room, someone ready to take your coat, if you have one, and another ready to give out bracelets. That way no one who shouldn't be drinking won't be able to.



The dance floor is surrounded by a number of small, round tables, each with an elaborate centerpiece of cobwebs. There are lights within the hanging decorations, with draped fabric over the sides, to give it a more close knit feeling. At the head of all the tables is a bar serving free drinks and cocktails to anyone over age. There is also a buffet



And then, of course, there is the dance floor, where people are dancing to the music supplied by two talented DJs, lights blinking and the room ready for everyone to have a good time.



Last call for food is two hours before sirens, and then the last call for drinks is an hour before the party finishes. You might want to be careful when it gets to be that time, though. Around 1:00 am, the party is going to change, due to a series of unfortunate events. You may not be very hungry or thirsty for awhile after.

Good as new.

[faking]

And precious? We look precious, right? Did you see us side by side yet?

[littlest_lord]

I look ridiculous.

[faking]

I think it's sweet. Miss Angelina has good taste. [Miss Angelina............... that's probably the most respectfully Alois has ever spoken of anyone, ever.]

[littlest_lord]

Only sometimes.

[faking]

Come off it, I bet she has excellent advice and you never take it.

[littlest_lord]

Not all the time. I take what is useful, however.

[faking]

Oh, of course, what's useful. Let's go, let's go out of here, I want to start dancing again. [He's taking Ciel's arm, prepared to drag him off if need be.]

[littlest_lord]

_{[And Ciel goes without much vocal protest, although he certainly doesn't want to dance.]}

With me?

[faking]

With whomever. [But he leans against Ciel a little as they walk.] With you.

[littlest_lord]

I'll try my best.

[faking]

She won't miss you, I hope? Your Aphrodite?

[littlest_lord]

No, not for a few hours.

[faking]

Then I'll have you to myself for a little while, won't I? Even in this crowd.

[littlest_lord]

Yes, you shall.

[faking]

Hey, what would you be doing? [He's leading Ciel out to the dance floor.] If you were just at home tonight, what would you be doing?

[littlest_lord]

Playing a game, perhaps. Having a snack.

[faking]

Oh, you can do those things here. Nothing exciting? [He's smiling because he already knows the answer (being that Ciel is pretty boring).]

[littlest_lord]

Those are exciting.

[faking]

Exciting things are exciting, Ciel, your exciting things are... [He waves a hand vaguely, as though that should convey the idea.] Don't you like the idea of adventures? Or mischief? At all? [And now he's pulling Ciel closer, to bring them both to proper stance. Ciel will probably ruin proper stance immediately, but it's important to at least try.]

[littlest_lord]

There's nothing wrong with mischief, at least in moderation.

[faking]

Ah. Well, obviously. Everything in moderation. [Bullshit. Alois doesn't believe in that word.

He leads Ciel into the first steps.]

If I ask you what you like, will you tell me about things other than pies?

[littlest_lord]

_{[Ciel doesn't like being led, but he's still rather poor at dancing. There's no complaint.]}

I like things other than pie. You make it out as if I'm so simple.

[faking]

Oh, you know what I mean, though. Just like if you asked me what I like, I'd promise not to say 'shoes.'

[littlest_lord]

You'd say boots, though.
