THE BALL

[mouselikeyoda.livejournal.com]

[Today is the day of the ball, and as such the entry to the Grand Ball Room is wide open, a sound of music echoing through the halls. Not too far away are signs pointing to the general area, intended to help those who are new as well as remind those who are interested.

The room itself seems incredibly clean, thanks to a few enchanted brooms, some of which are still there to clean up any messes from the food. Speaking of food, there is a large table with many delicious meals to choose from, from classy foods to simpler snacks such as chips and even a bit of treats for the children and others who enjoy sweets. And of course, beverages are present, such as punch, water, soft drinks, and even a bit of wine for the adults. Off to the side is an ice box, which may in fact contain sea salt ice cream.

Similar to the last ball, there is a comfortable area set off to the side for those who would rather relax, maybe take a break from dancing. It consists of comfortable chairs and couches for the guests, and even smaller tables for beverages.

Of course, the main attraction is the dance floor itself, which is dimly lit by a chandelier and the occasional candles here and there. The aforementioned music at the moment is classical, a sort of waltz and seems to be coming from no apparent source-- but one may notice somewhere in the ball room that Mickey himself is present, dressed not only in proper masquerade attire, but also with a familiar hat.

Anyone is welcome to enjoy the ball. However, if trouble should arise Mickey does have a Keyblade and would be more than willing to intervene; this is meant for enjoyment, not violence.]

[Here comes yet another Riku, wearing a black suit (http://im.sify.com/movies/images/feb2008/5events.jpg) and deep red shirt, with a black mask (http://ep.yimg.com/ip/I/masksandmakebelieve_2057_597347) on. He doesn't really know many here, but it is a little easier to tell him from most of the other Rikus, because he's not bothering to hide his fangs when he smiles.]

*is propping up the wall in one of the corners*

[spots you after looking around a bit and wanders over]

I thought you'd be out there dancing, Ri.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*keeps his arms crossed over his chest, scanning the crowd*

I'm not here to have fun.

[boy-of-twilight.livejournal.com]

[leans against the wall next to you]

Expecting something bad to happen?

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*grunts a bit*

There was a fancy ball like this once before, and it was a trap. Ansem locked the doors and set loose Heartless on all of us. My Little Brother and Nami-chan lost their Hearts during it. I'm not taking any chances.

[well no wonder you're so sour]

If it happened before, I'm sure it'll be harder to catch people by surprise this time.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

Yeah. And the King is here, too. But it doesn't stop me from worrying. A lot of my friends are here. And 'bug, too.

[boy-of-twilight.livejournal.com]

I'm sure it'll be alright, Ri. They're lucky to have someone like you looking out for them.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

I still can't help but worry. Anything could happen with so many people in one place.

[boy-of-twilight.livejournal.com]

So I can't even steal you for a dance?

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*goes a little pink*

... maybe in a little bit? Sora will be here, too, you know.

[boy-of-twilight.livejournal.com]

[eyes light up behind the mask]

I can't wait to see him.

[oath-kept.livejournal.com]

*comes up behind you and pinches your butt!*

[boy-of-twilight.livejournal.com]

[eeps and whirls around]

Kairi!

[oath-kept.livejournal.com]

*giggles and pokes your chest*

You look quite dashing, sir.

[boy-of-twilight.livejournal.com]

[grins and gives you a deep bow]

And you look ready to break quite a few hearts tonight, my lady.

My little Kairi's all grown up and found a Sora ;~;

[oath-kept.livejournal.com]

*turns a little pink and suddenly finds her shoes interesting*

... well, I have a date tonight!

I saw! They're so adorable <33

[boy-of-twilight.livejournal.com]

Oh? He better treat you well, or he's going to have me to answer to.

They aaaare <3

[oath-kept.livejournal.com]

*sticks her tongue out*

Well don't tell Ri I have a date, or he'll castrate him!

*oh, the irony -- it's older Sorabug*

[boy-of-twilight.livejournal.com]

Your secret's safe with me, but what am I supposed to tell him if Ri figures it out on his own?

[this will be interesting when Ri discovers that, too]

[oath-kept.livejournal.com]

Well, that's fine then. So what are you doing over here alone?

[boy-of-twilight.livejournal.com]

Well, I wasn't going to let not having a date stop me from coming, but I don't really know what to do with myself now.

Mmm. I had BBQ for dinner.

[oath-kept.livejournal.com]

Well, you look secks, at least. It's sometimes fun just to watch the people who come and go.

guh I want some ;o;

[boy-of-twilight.livejournal.com]

Exactly. It's a little weird to see some members of the Organization here and actually behaving themselves.
