The log will be split into two entries to keep the size manageable. In this thread is the Stage, Wallflowers and King & Queen ceremony!

---

Because he can't stop himself from making a movie reference, the theme of this year's Prom is "Enchantment Under the Sea". (Don't get too freaked out, Marty McFly.) Equipment has been moved out, seating has been set near tables and walls, and a makeshift stage has been constructed to host the DJing equipment. Quinn has music up until 2010, so a large variety of music will get played. There's plenty of food and drinks - including spiked, and very-much-not-spiked punch (magically protected, thanks to Ilsa). In a corner is a small set up for people who wish to get their photos taken by Tsukasa.

The party is under way - have yourselves a good time, Mayfield!

I can understand. Fun...isn't something I've been able to have for a very long time.

[For a moment her gaze is distant, then she looks up at him with a small smile.]

Maybe we can learn together?

[chalicejoker]

[Really, the idea that anyone would want to hang around him and his moody, socially awkward self is still somewhat of a new one...as is the idea of wanting to reciprocate that sort of thing. He returns her small smile with one of his own.]

We could do that.

[wolfishsurvivalist]

Only if you don't mind putting up with me, that is.

[She laughs a little at that, ducking her head as her tail wags.]

[chalicejoker]

I'm not worried about that--I can guarantee you I'm worse.

[wolfishsurvivalist]

[She just huffs, her dress flaring around her knees as she moved.]

Maybe so.

[Cocking her head, her bangs hide her eyes for a moment before sheshe reaches up to brush them out of her face.]

[chalicejoker]

...it occurs to me that perhaps trying to figure out which of us comes with the most baggage is not the best way for us to learn to have fun.

[He looks a little sheepish at that.]

[wolfishsurvivalist]

It is pretty bad, isn't it?

[She laughs, her tail wagging again. Her laugh is oddly like a bark at the beginning, before becoming something more like a giggle. Lifting both her hands, she makes flicking motions.]

Bad habits, begone!

[chalicejoker]

It's...well, I don't know if it was good, that's for sure.

[He's not at all bothered by the laugh being a little weird, and he smiles at the flicking motions.]

That's probably a better idea.

[wolfishsurvivalist]

Sadly I'm not the greatest at banishing bad spirits but we'll work with what we've got.

[An ear twitches as she catches a shift in the music, Quinn's playlist transitioning smoothly from one song to the next.]

That reminds me, I know you said you didn't dance before this, but what about music? Do you have a favorite kind?

[chalicejoker]

It's all we can do, right?

[The question seems to surprise Hajime. Being asked that question? Hasn't happened before, and he hasn't paid music in general much attention.]

I...actually don't listen to much. Don't do much besides the photography...and playing cards on occasion, really. What about you?

[wolfishsurvivalist]

Pretty much.

Really? Music isn't a big thing where you come from? Music is really cathartic for me, so I have a lot of different types I listen to. You could say I kind of have a natural affinity for it, too.

[chalicejoker]

Well, it's a big thing in my world, too, I just...never really listened to much. Maybe you could help me expand my horizons.

[wolfishsurvivalist]

I'd be glad to.

[She grins wide enough that her fangs gleam, her tail wagging happily.]

[chalicejoker]

I look forward to it, then.

[He's not really the sort to go in for big grins, but he is smiling.]

[wolfishsurvivalist]

Maybe after I stop by the butcher shop. We could make a day of it, once you get off work? I'll cook, pester Quinn into showing off his collection, and we can hang out.

[chalicejoker]

That sounds like an excellent plan.

[wolfishsurvivalist]

Glad you like it!
