Halloween Masquerade Ball

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.

Shockingly, that is not a surprise.

[And he turns, arching his eyebrows at Christina's outfit.]

Slightly stereotypical, don't you think?

I'm steeped in cliche. [She just admitted to dropping a disco ball on someone's head at a dance. Come on, Crowley.] But if anyone asks, I'm a candle.

[She folds her arms over her chest.] So are you actually here to have fun or are you 'networking?'

[A barely suppressed eyeroll at being a candle before -- ]

Both, actually.

[Mostly the latter, but Crowley enjoys free liquor and he legitimately enjoys people, from time to time. It just depends on the company.

He sips his drink.]


Castiel is around somewhere, unless he abandoned me.

Always practical. [Sometimes it worries her how much Boyd and Crowley are alike. Then she remembers Crowley hates Lucifer and that's the only difference that will ever matter.]

If he did, you're going to need a dance partner, now aren't you? [She rests a hand on his arm, all mischievous grins.] Maybe it'll drag him out of the woodwork.

[Because she is totally not above seeing if Castiel gets jealous of Crowley's teenage pet Antichrist dancing with his man. She has a totally valid image of their relationship in her head.]

You have an extraordinarily twisted and warped view of the two of us, I hope you realize.

[It's said dryly, but he allows himself to be moved to the floor. He's not entirely opposed to dancing.]

I doubt he'll care.
worldhaditsway: (Stone-age love)

[personal profile] worldhaditsway 2012-11-06 06:28 am (UTC)(link)
I have "an extraordinarily twisted and warped view" [she may have just said that in a British accent] of many things. But I do know he makes you grumpy in ways you don't hate.

[She curtseys, going for the full monty of this act.] If nothing else, he'll probably wonder why you're dancing with a child.

[Except not, because Lilith.]

[Crowley chooses to completely ignore her point about Castiel (which is very true) and sighs heavily at the curtsy.

He is not going to bow. Kings of Hell do not bow.]


You would be shocked at how often this happens to me.

[And the demon extends his hand. Let's get this over with. 8|]

And my accent sounds nothing like that.
worldhaditsway: (Which version of you I might get)

[personal profile] worldhaditsway 2012-11-08 05:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Somehow I don't really wanna know. [And dancing is happening. Surprisingly, for someone who's only had a little bit of experience with cotillion (thank you, private schools), she manages to not royally suck.]

It does a little. [She rolls her eyes, because semantics, Crowley.] Did you ever think it would come to this? King of Hell, slowly working on building an empire in possessed Canada, living out a sitcom with an angel... Having a decent rapport with the daughter of the guy you overthrew? [Obviously, she's being sarcastic, but it's still odd to think about. A year ago she was blowing up New Jersey and writing off humanity as a bust. Now she was a superhero and her mentor figures were the self-proclaimed king of hell, the daughter of an archangel, and an old Asian man who would put Mr. Miyagi to pasture.]

We aren't living out a sitcom.

[It's said somewhat reproachfully, but her points are taken into consideration as he falls quiet, to actually contemplate that.]

-- I have nothing to fear in going home. This place is a pause button insofar as if I leave, I won't die. I won't even suffer. I rule the known universe -- there is no other player but me anymore.

[Christina could take that however she liked.]

[She rolls her eyes at the chiding. Fine. Not a sitcom. Even if it is pretty sitcom-y.]

So it sucks, basically. [She raises an eyebrow, questioning. She wouldn't be offended if he said yes. It's not like she's not looking at exactly the same situation, if "leader of the free world" could be synonymous with "leader of the smoking crater you turned the world into." Sometimes it occurs to her that she'd go back to being that and forget everything and it scares her.] In comparison to being the biggest fish in the pond.

I fixed it, actually. The problems I caused. They're all gone.

[He stills abruptly, a hand still at her waist, but no longer actually dancing.]

Castiel included.
worldhaditsway: (Mine is not the first heart broken)

[personal profile] worldhaditsway 2012-11-18 06:51 am (UTC)(link)
[That gets her. She knows that calm realization that comes when it occurs to you that the terms "everything" and "nothing" aren't mutually exclusive.]

You know what they don't tell you about being on the top? [Because this much she knows without having actually been there, herself. It's how these stories end.] It's lonely.

[Sentimentality isn't Crowley's thing. He'd never admit to being lonely, so she doesn't wait for him to derisively write the comment off, before she plows on, just standing there in a frozen dance, while the rest of the party ignores them.]

But I guess we all have to make choices and decide what's more important. Having everything. [She can almost make Castiel out in the crowd somewhere.] Or having something that actually means something.

[That said, she pulls away a bit and points in Castiel's direction.] Either way, we all probably go home eventually. You might as well enjoy the problems.

[It's lucky that Christina continues on without allowing Crowley room to speak, because he has a biting comment ready -- loneliness. What a trite and useless concept. Crowley has absolutely no room to be lonely -- no time, no energy, no sparing glance toward what his life could have been. He rules Hell -- a constantly twisting dimension in need of constant babysitting. Being lonely is not very becoming of the young King of Hell.

Still, there is a point, in Christina's words, and he knows where she's going with this before she finishes, and Crowley lets out a soft groan of irritability as he lets himself be turned slightly in Christina pulling away.]


I absolutely refuse to allow you to tell me to seize the day with someone who can't tell the difference between haute couture and K-Mart.
worldhaditsway: (Not the one you'll sweep off her feet)

[personal profile] worldhaditsway 2012-11-18 07:03 am (UTC)(link)
[Christina crosses her arms over her chest and even behind a mask, she looks completely skeptical and Not Impressed. If it were anyone else but Crowley, she'd probably even be hurt that her deep, heartfelt realizations are being treated like a joke.

But it's Crowley and if she's learned anything in a year, it's that he can take things to heart without ever admitting he so much as has one. It's why she likes him. No bullshit. No fluff. But it doesn't mean he doesn't care.]


You're ruining the moment, Crowley.
integrity: [Season Seven] (♆ Always prepared.)

[personal profile] integrity 2012-11-18 07:08 am (UTC)(link)
[There's a soft huff of laughter before he rolls his eyes slightly, to watch Castiel out of the corner of his eye.]

-- you remind me very much of my former boss. Her name was Lilith.

[It's said rather seriously, for Crowley, as he takes half a step forward, so the conversation is entirely private.]

She never allowed me a longer leash than absolutely necessary and was never very impressed with my attitude, but she never pressed me to understand whatever wisdom she was imparting upon me, because she always understood that I was listening.

[In short -- he understands. He knows. And he knows that Castiel is going to die, regardless of what he does about it. He can't change what he's done or what he is about to do. The only thing he can do is ensure it doesn't happen here.]
