He blinked.

She was laughing.

Why was she laughing? It was a pretty sound, but it was embarrassing when he wasn't trying to be funny. His face grew even warmer, and he looked to the side.

At least the girl didn't appear to be angry about the hand on her waist. The hand on his shoulder honestly might have been making him blush more than the laughing, although he would hate to admit how easily such a simple gesture flustered him.

"Well, we're about to find out," he said, and began taking little steps.

He spun them around in slow circles that didn't quite match the tempo of the music. As he moved, his gaze dropped to their feet, and it lingered there. He was trying to be careful, and not interrupt their dance by stepping on her, or on the excess fabric of her dress.

"We seem to be surviving so far," he said, glancing up from the floor to smile at her. "I think ye were lying. Yer a lovely dancer."

Grant idly glanced at the person who walked up to him. He was dressed up much nicer than Grant, having an actual outfit put together rather than the simple tux.

"Aye, this be a borin' night."

The kids were behaving pretty well so far, so there wasn't much for Grant to really...do.

"I'd much rather be visitin' th' city."

One chuckle escaped from the young man's lips as he glanced at the crowd. There was many people out and about in the crowd, but nothing of significance was happening. He was kind of wishing for someone to cause trouble. That would make things a lot more fun even if it meant he had to break out the juvie bracelets.

"Yeah. The parade's going on right now. If I hadn't been chosen to chaperon, I would be at a different ball actually."

He stretched his arms out and cracked his knuckles.

"But it can't be helped! I'm thinking of heading out for drinks after this. Alcohol and Halloween candy seems like a good combination to me."

Halloween was Live's favorite holiday by any means. And no it wasn't because she got to dress up and get candy. While most mortals thought that Halloween was just a fun day, she knew that is was also very important for Satanists. Many people believed that Live herself was a Satanists and while she did practice some rituals, she did not align herself with it religiously. However, due to the high level of Satanic and demonic activity present on Halloween, Live's bond with the spirit world was even stronger and it honestly made her feel more alive.

She hadn't really planned on going to the masquerade. In fact, she had been planning on not going. Parties weren't her thing when they required dressing up. However, she was outside enjoying the night and the approaching Halloween spirit that filled her soul with joy, when she passed some students headed to the ballroom. She watched them enter and couldn't help but feel curious. What was a masquerade like anyways?

She turned quickly and walked towards the ballroom. Just before reaching the door, she changed suddenly into her shadow form and swished in under the door. She moved her form through the room till she was hidden in the shadows on the wall. From there she could be a fly on the wall for about the next ten minutes, observing exactly what this ball thing was about. She just hoped no one with some crazy shadow sensing ability would notice her up there.

"True, True. Th' parade'd be much more fun than watchin th' students spin around each otha." The captain chuckled. "Might explain why I was chosen las' minute. Not enough volunteers."

The captain leaned back against the wall. He pulled his ancient flask from inside his jacket and took a sip. "Eh, I'll probably be visitin' me lady."
