[professorlionface]

WHO: EVERYBODY OF ALL AGES
WHERE: The Xavier Institute
WHEN: The night of June 16th, all night!
WARNINGS: Who can really tell anymore? Probable language. Possible violence. Copious dancing.
SUMMARY: PROM PROM PROM PROM PROM PROM PROM
FORMAT: OPEN

The guests into an auditorium transformed. Through the magic of papier mache, the room has been decked out like a speakeasy, the refreshments laid out on a very makeshift bar that will not stock alcohol as long as they can prevent it. The whole room is cast with a cool blue light, and a jazz band's been hired to take the stage for an hour before leaving the rest of the evening to the DJ.

It was time to get this party started.

I exaggerate, it was just very long and exhausting for absolutely no reason. (what a way to talk about your own coronation, Larsa.)

Has Johnny found you yet?

[webline]

[ pressing her book against her chin ]

No, not yet. He'll come around.

[solidorkable]

... Until he does, would you maybe like to dance.

[webline]

[ a long... pause ]

I -- uh -- I'm not good at it... [ she's standing anyways though ]

[solidorkable]

If it makes you feel at ease, I know nothing of dancing here. I only know the Imperial styles.

[webline]

Show me an Imperial style then. [ a small grin ] I want to learn it.

[solidorkable]

(he bows to hide his blush.) Then I would be honored to have this dance.

[webline]

Cool.

[ she kind of flounders and then curtsies, holding out her hand ]

[solidorkable]

(oh! he follows along, bowing nice and low for her before escorting her to the dance floor.)

Madam, if you would please. (thankfully, Larsa is confident enough to break out into a waltz dance position in a sea of teenagers.)

[webline]

[ jess meanwhile... is not so confident. she looks definitely really awkward but is just going to grab at his hands because she has no idea what to do help. ]

[solidorkable]

Do not be too concerned, it is a simple boxstep. (1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2- whoops. he's a little awkward because he's so short.)
