[OPEN] Midwinter Masquerade
Characters: EVERYONE
Date: Forward-dated to Friday, December 21st
Location: Water Sector
Situation: Midwinter Masquerade!
Warnings/Rating: None in the entry, please tag your threads accordingly.
It's well into the evening of the Longest Night when guests begin to arrive at the Midwinter Masquerade. The building where it is held, a large and elegant building, sits in the Water sector at the edge of a canal, allowing attendees to arrive by foot, boat, and bicycle drawn carts.
Upon approaching the main entrance, guests are greeted by kedan servers who have been contracted for the event. Dressed in white and silver as Winter spirits and snowy creatures, they greet the guests, stow away their coats, cloaks, and other outerwear, and bid them Joy on the Longest Night.
The theme of their costumes becomes quickly apparent upon entering the main room, for Favrielle has put all of her designing genius toward transforming the it into a wintery palace. Pale white drapes hang over the walls of the room and beneath the ceiling, accented with silvery ribbons to simulate icicles. Indeed, most things in the hall are in whites and silvers. The tables are adorned in white table cloths, and matching napkins hold polished silverware within, tied shut with ribbon.
A set of musicians sit to the side of the dance floor, playing quietly as the guests arrive. The stringed instruments produce sweet sounds of a more classical style that adds to the formality of the occasion and sets the mood for the evening. Indeed, it does little more than that for the first part of the evening, by Favrielle's reckoning, is best spent enjoying the arrival of those in costume. After all, with so many masked it's as much an entertainment to see who is dressed in what, as it is to try and guess their identity.
The more observant or socially networked individual might also notice that while most guests are indeed foreigners, there are a few kedan in attendance as well. Invited by Favrielle herself, these kedan are for the most part friends and associates from their shared industry, as well as some few acquaintances she's made in the Fire sector's red light district. In the tradition of the Night Court however, it is not a night of business dealings, even those from the latter group.
As for the hostess herself, she enters only when it seems as if most other guests are present...
[ooc: Due to RL stuff this is going up early! This should give everyone more time to tag in. The pageant beginning will go up now, however the end will go up on the 21st as planned!]

I was looking for the hostess. She said I might earn a dance from her, if I made the effort. I had hoped to see tonight whether or not I'd rated.
[It is a transparent overture, but then, that is the fun of masquerades. To know everyone under their masks and play that you do not. This is in truth the first masquerade Dorian has been to in years where he hasn't known everybody worth knowing, even with the masks, and he is finding it invigorating.]
no subject
Is that so? And if you hadn't earned a dance from her, what then?
[She doesn't mind playing along that they don't know who each other is, as if her scar isn't a major tell-tale sign. It's part of the fun of an event like this to pretend, to indulge in the pseudo-anonymity.]
no subject
Wilt from despair, probably. But you don't need to worry. I do it very attractively. [And to prove the point, he made a sad little expression of dejection that didn't do very well at all masking the amusement at the corners of his mouth.]
no subject
[Favrielle leans in with a smile, almost conspiratorially:]
Though I must say I have it on the highest authority that your chances of getting a dance are still quite good.

[She steps closer in anticipation of his offering his hand.]

Then I must ask you: might I have the honour of a dance?
no subject
It would be my pleasure.

Here in this city, where she's not regarded as damaged or wanting, it's so much easier to allow herself to enjoy such simple pleasures.]

But then, she is practically French.][When he draws away, he is smiling even more than before.]
You're very good. I haven't enjoyed a dance like that in quite a while.
no subject
How sad for you that it's been so long.
[Then again, the same could be said for her.]

It wouldn't, though it would have to be another time. I am here with another, after all.

Indeed, there certainly is. Perhaps you'll join me for dinner?

It would be my pleasure.
yes good :>
Yes, it absolutely will.
[Of that, she has no doubt.]
