[ Things do enjoy popping up without warning for characters, don't they? There's one for everyone, appearing in a place they're sure to find it. There are spares, sealed up on walls and slipped under doors and lying in stacks on the tables. They're invitations, on textured parchment in shimmering dark gold letters. Some people, if they've been here a while, will recognize the penmanship. ]

As many of you already know, there is a traditional Holiday Ball held every year. This year will be no exception! On Christmas Eve, there will be a path of golden candles and holly to guide your way. Follow the trail and it shall lead you to the location of the ball. Everyone is invited, and you may bring whoever you wish. However there will be no fighting!

~ Angelique


[ ooc: Third year, you guys! :D The post for the ball itself will be up sometime tomorrow night orrr the morning of the 24th. The ball will take place IC starting Christmas Eve (say, around 8pm) and extend (ICly) until Christmas morning. The location of the ball is protected by magic, and anyone who starts a fight will be transported to the entrance and unable to enter for ten minutes. It repeats, so don't bother trying again once you're back in if you do get shoved out.

Mingle and threadhop and enjoy the holidays to your heart's content. Like the other years, this entry can be used to have your characters invite their friends, lovers, enemies, Nobodies, Heartless, whatever. Spread the Christmas cheer. Happy Holidays, everyone. ♥ ]

[he is like. pretty much glowing with how pleased he is to read there's going to be another ball. this season is so wonderful. ♥]

[before]

[It's a good thing Red's been more Christmas-y than Halloween-y lately, or else he would have completely ignored the invitation. As it is, his (or rather "her" at the moment) interest has been grabbed.]

because they really need more threads together

[dawnrise]

[If the last time he (she?) saw her was on the full moon, then it would have been as an exceptionally lethargic wolf, completely devoid of energy. As in so tired and lifeless she hardly moved for the duration of the night. She's looking much more alert today.]

... Are you actually interested?

of course!

[before]

I am. Feeling better?

[Lethargic wolf is the weirdest wolf! That probably left him pretty weirded out, actually, even if he figured out the cause of it.]

a million at once. right now. let's go back and tag every single thread they've ever been in.

[dawnrise]

Yeah.

[She has even less memory of that night than her others, though, so the question strikes her as odd at first. Now she nods her head to indicate the invitation.]

You're actually interested?

it would kill my computer.

[before]

Yes, Riku, I am. Or did you forget the whole Christmas thing going on with me lately?

most likely, yes.

[dawnrise]

Hard thing to forget.

[But it's weird. Christmas is one thing, but it's... it's a ball.]

[before]

[Hey, he's curious to see if it'll be the same as the others!]

[dawnrise]

[Right, right.]

So I guess I will see you there.

[And in better spirits than last year.]

[before]

Most likely, yeah.

[dawnrise]

Should be interesting.

[Seeing him in... what, his temporary element? Or something. She's hoping he enjoys the holiday, for once.]

[before]

It certainly should. Unless I go and change back right before the ball.

[dawnrise]

I don't think this place is ready to let you off the hook just yet.

[before]

Nah, but wouldn't that be just like it, too? Change me back right before something that I'm looking forward to for once?

[dawnrise]

You're right. Guess we'll have to wait and see. Like always.

[She has to roll her eyes. Someone always says that.]

[before]

I guess we will.

[Honestly, he's hoping he doesn't change back until after, so he can at least enjoy the holiday instead of hating it.]

[dawnrise]

[She's not sure if she expects him to be hoping that or not, but she's hoping for the same thing.]

[before]

[Good thing it'll all go fine, hm~?]

[dawnrise]

[Good thing indeed.]

[Oh great, a party and Sam had no idea what to wear, maybe Avani could help with that...]

[erasemefriend.livejournal.com]

[Another ball? Excellent.

Last year he may have been teased by Vanitas, but this year he'll make it something swell! ...Once he finds a certain someone, that is.]

[temporaltrap.livejournal.com]

[ A certain someone like this someone who is reading over her own invitation a few hallways away? ]

[erasemefriend.livejournal.com]

[Yes, exactly! And once he finds said someone, he'll rush over with a grin.]

Hey!

[temporaltrap.livejournal.com]

[ She smiles in response, looking over to him and lowering her invitation. ]

Hey.

[heartofall.livejournal.com]

[ Kind of a bitter sweet thing, here. She adores this time of the year, especially the ball and weddings, but the previous encounter that caused her to get injured for the first time in a while is still gnawing at her, despite being fully healed.

But, she'll smile at the invitation! ]

[.... Does this mean he has to wear a tie? And slacks? And a suit jacket?]
