Masquerade Ball: Event Thread

[Anonymous]

Black and red mask, black gown

Her friend basically had to drag her to this event. Literally. She was not a fan of crowds and having to dress up and this event required both. But here she was. Not for her sake but for her friends.

She entered the room reluctantly after some prodding from her friend. She huffed and crossed her arms, as if that would some how hide her frame as eyes fell on the two. She stood almost a foot taller than her friend, with purple skin and horns and a tail. Her dress was black and relatively form fitting except for a flare at the bottom. It was a high neck dress with lots of lace that ran down the arms. At the very end, it seemed to morph into the ground itself but shimmered with a slight red color. Shadow Silk...quite the material.

"Yeah yeah." She huffed as she stood next to her friend. "I'm here that is all I promised.." The only good thing was that she had been drinking the whole way here and had a strong buzz going. She had a joint hidden somewhere in her dress as well. The best she could hope was that she'd either be able to slip away to smoke it herself at some point or maybe find someone to go with her. Either way, the herb would be inhaled before the end of the night.

Golden Mask With Bronze Filigree, Star-Scape Ballroom Dress

She was pretty much jumping up and down in joy. This was quite the highlight of the year and she wasn't going to miss this. Last time she had skipped out on most of it because life got in the way and it hadn't ended well. But she wasn't going to let that happen this year. "And we will only be here a short period of time. An hour at most, after that we shall head back to shop and take care of trick or treaters."

Putting an arm around her friends waist and gave her a one armed hug she pulled away. "If you want you can take a tour around the room. I'm going to go dance for a bit, show off to some people and be right back. Okay?" She wanted to make sure her friend was fine with this, didn't want to make her feel abandoned or left apart from everything, Seeing as it was at her insistance that she was here in the first place.

Black and red mask; Black gown

She froze for a second, her mind rushing through a million things. It was just a flash of moment as her eyes scanned the room as she considered her friends words. It didn't take long for her to settle.

"I'm staying you with babe!"

First thing that had to be noted...she was drunk. No worries though. She could handle this level of intoxication. It was slight to say the least (one beer) but enough that her nerves were down..or rather inhibitions as most like to call them when to referring to alcohol's effect.

For better or worse, when it came to big group situations a couple drinks was something she felt dependent on. Tonight she was there to help her friend enjoy herself and show off their dresses. One beer and a swig or two from someone's flask...that was all she needed to make it through the night.

Oh..right and then trick or treating. She had forgotten that they were committed to giving out candy to youngling's in costumes. This was her second Halloween on the island but she had yet to help give candy out. She was kind of excited to be completely honest..

"Let's enjoy ourselves!"

She had to speak quite loudly to be heard over the music. Plus this new height was really throwing her off. Her voice was about the same but it was just weird to experience the world from this angle.
