Firefall: [act]edges past the s*c*p and surveys the Ballroom with satisfaction[/act] Ah, it came out so well! Those chandeliers of Mystic crystals add such a touch of elegance, don't you think?
Mystery Guest: ...Are there cobwebs on me? I think there are cobwebs on me. [act]flails[/act]
Firefall: All part of the ambience! [act]looks around[/act] Hm, shall we go introduce ourselves?
MG: [act]moodily picking cobwebs from shoulder[/act] What are you going to introduce me as? "Anonymous"?
Firefall: You know, these little bolts of sarcasm are really not conducive to a party atmosphere. I'm just saying. [act]drags guest over to the growing cluster of members and their dates[/act]
Smuffy: *skips in, her arms linked with Ceirwan's*
OOOOOoooh! Purdy...!!! *looks around in awe*
Ceirwan: Let's talk to some of the other couples! :P
Smuffy: Okaysh! :D *whispers to Ceirwan: They all have such good costumes!*
*turns to others*
Oooooh, Wraithking, you're so lucky to get Elspeth! :O All the rest of have such horrid odds at getting an awesome date. What did you come as, anyway?

[act]Ari and her date enter the Ballroom a little awkwardly. It seems Ari's date is having some kind of argument with the paper bag[/act]
Ari: Surely it cant be that difficult to wear a full body paper bag!?
AMD: Have you even worn one of these?
Ari: No, but- [act]grabbing a hand full of her dress and pointing to killer black stilettos[/act] -I get to spend the Ball in these!
AMD: Impressive, but still not enough to trump the body bag!
Ari: ::) You'll live.

Firefall: [act]to AMG, innocently[/act] If you really want to trump all, you could always wear the stilettos as well as the body bag.
Ari: Ooh, I like that. [act]pauses[/act] No, wait! I love these shoes!
AMG: And I don't. Thus, no. [act]eyes FMG[/act] Hey! Why does this one get a head-only bag?
Ari: [act]soothingly[/act] You're making a fashion statement.
Firefall: Yes, think how awkward it would be if two guests came wearing the same costume.
AMG: [act]rustling irritably in full-body bag[/act] Ah, yeah, because this isn't awkward at all.
Ceirwan: [act]looking around hopefully[/act] Has anybody seen Freya yet?
Smuffy: Sorry, Ceir, she's nowhere to be found at this stage.
Elspeth: What about Rushton? Is he anywhere to be found?
Firefall: I ask myself that every day.
Elspeth: [act]eying Firefall coolly[/act] Oh?
Firefall: Ahaha...figure of speech.
Silence: [act]ensues. Loudly[/act]
AMG: [act]smugly[/act] I think I see what you mean about awkward moments.

[act]EI and Gilbert enter the ballroom, Gilbert somewhat hesitantly[/act]
EI: What is your problem?
Gilbert: There are a few people that are bound to be here that I don't have very good histories with.
EI: Lovely. You know what, I probably would have preferred to bring Matthew again.
Gilbert: That makes two of us. [act]Grumbles as the gun in his hand slips slowly out of his grip[/act]
EI: Really? I didn't think you swung that way.
Gilbert: [act]Glares at EI[/act] Please tell me the bar is open.
EI: The least you could do before getting intoxicated is ask me to dance.
Gilbert: You really expect me to dance in this abomination?

[act]Princess Leia strides in, gun drawn, eager to get after the Imperial Stormtroopers she'd seen in the Entrance Hall[/act]
In the name of the Rebel Alliance, bring the Stormtroopers to me!
[act]Everyone goes quiet and turns to stare[/act]
Deb: [act]turning to Firefall[/act] Oh dear, I think we should have debriefed her first... should we go and calm her down?
DMG: At least get her to put that gun away!
[act]Deb and Firefall walk over to the ever-increasingly-confused Leia, mystery guests in tow[/act]
Firefall: Hello Princess Leia, and welcome to the Mystics Ball!
Leia: Umm hello.. I'm not sure what's going on here. I could have sworn I saw a stormtrooper earlier! I thought they all went down with the fall of the Death Star... A Ball you say?
Deb: Oh yes, this is a costume ball - you know, where everyone dresses up. The theme this year is sci-fi :nod:
Leia: But what's that got to do with stormtroopers? They're real! [act]Looks accusingly around[/act]Are you Rebel Alliance or are you with them?!
[act]Deb and Firefall look at each other[/act]
Firefall: Hmm this is going to be hard to explain..

Firefall: [act]carefully[/act] We are most definitely not on whichever side it is that you want to kill.
Leia: Do you think me a fool?
Firefall: Naw, but it was worth a shot, huh?
Deb: Could you not use the word shot when she's pointing a gun at us?
Ari: Say, Leia, why don't we introduce you to the guest who's dressed up as Chewbacca?
Leia: Not the stormtrooper?
Ari: [act]wincing[/act] Not the stormtrooper.
[act]Meanwhile, the three MGs have grouped together gloomily, united by the stigma of the Paper Bag Look. The three hostesses eye them, unimpressed[/act]
Deb: Don't be such a baby. Come meet people.
DMG: Mmmffff.
Ari: Look at it this way: we're hiding you away because you're so good-looking we don't want you to get mobbed before the party's even started! :D
Firefall: Do you really think that will work?
Deb: Remember who we're dealing with.
[act]Sure enough, DMG is preening around the paper bag[/act]
AMG: So the fact that my bag covers me fully is actually a compliment, suggesting I'm the most good-looking of us all?
FMG: [act]turning on Firefall[/act] Why didn't you give me a full-body paper bag?
Firefall: [act]looking like a deer caught in headlights, despite her guest's lack of eyeholes[/act] Umm...I apologise?
[act]This settled, the three drag their dates off to socialise[/act]
Smuffy: And then we can sell them for guild points! :D
Firefall: [act]looking interested[/act] Who are we selling?
FMG: Aren't you supposed to be supervising this room?
Firefall: So?
FMG: So, supervising means you can't encourage attempts at slavery in your area of supervision.
Firefall: ...Aww. :(
Smuffy: Um, it's not slavery...we're just thinking of auctioning off dates.
Deb: What! Do you know how long it took me to pull those dates out of a hat?
All: ...
Tonks: [act]looks up from strangling Billy[/act] Ten seconds?
Billy: I'm guessing thirt - erk! [act]is strangled again[/act]
Ceir: Judging from my own experience with organising events, I'd guess about three minutes and forty-seven seconds.
