In fact.... Blushing prettily at the compliment, Liv did a slow twirl for him. "It's hard to know how to dress for wedding things. I've never been to one." It was admitted with a mischievous gleam in her eye. One that Miffy would've commended, the blonde liked to think. For no reason, really. She was just in a playful mood. "You look very handsome, as well, Mr. Reed."

She'd just been about to accept his offer to dance when a loud CRASH! sounded nearby....Oh, her fellow wedding party!mate, Ms. Rula... Um, is that what one would call it? Wedding party!mate? Merlin, she was so new to this, it was borderline embarrassing. ANYWAY, Ms. Rula was helping the struggling house elf with his fallen pan. Ms. Rula was a lovely lady, and her boyfriend, Maxwell, was beyond gorgeous. Congratulations to YOU, Ms. Rula.

Hmm... Also, she noted Char and her twirling...and Noelle and Princess Azula sitting at a table. She obviously couldn't see the girl's distraught face from all the way over here, but their presence had been noted all the same. Liv even waved in that direction, thinking the gesture polite given that both were such good friends of Jace's. And she was his date. Couldn't step on best friend toes. She definitely knew about that rule, having the same in place for a few of her own friends.

Hmm. Anyway. Back to this dancing business and THE FRIGGIN' SIRENS PERFORMING!!!!

Ms. Nat looked beautiful up there with the other girls and Liv felt compelled to wave stupidly at the stage, feeling all sorts of things about there being an all girl band at Hogwarts. WHO RUN THE WORLD? GIRLS!

"Yes....can we please?" Sorry for all this inner monologue and such, Jace. Olivia's attention span wasn't the best at times. Curious little lady she was and what have you. And there was also absolutely no need to be awkward, even though that was easier said then done. Looping her arm through his easily, as was her way, she lead him out onto the dance floor.

As a Ravenclaw, Jace of course knew about wedding dress codes, however...a poltergeists’ wedding? He wasn’t too sure. If he’d shown up in his pyjamas, he was sure Peeves and Miffy wouldn’t mind. However, he didn’t like the idea of being accidentally undressed should the party go that far. “Well...you look great...even better than Miffy. Of course the last bit was spoken in a whisper, audible enough for Liv to hear. Jace was taken aback however, at the compliment. He looked...handsome? He thought that word was only reserved for his dad and brother. As far as he knew, he wasn’t good looking compared to the other men in the Reed family. “I...uh...thanks.” he said tucking his hands behind him and stared at his feet, a shy grin plastered on his face. Who knew Liv would find him fetching?

Jace was too busy in his own bubble to even notice what was going on. He would have approached the best friend and Noelle if he knew they were there. But before he could offer his arm to Olivia, the Gryffindor girl already looped her arm with his, and was lead to the dance floor. This made the Ravenclaw chuckle, and somehow...he felt relaxed. It was as if the awkwardness was left behind the moment Olivia whisked him away to where they stood now.

The Ravenclaw started to do some side to side dance moves...dorky ones of course, but he was at least dancing to the beat. Maybe exchanging his study time for something as...crazy as this wasn’t so bad. He was having fun!

...

Well, it looked like the fun part was over since bits and pieces of cake were being thrown at them? “Oh no...oh my---”

SPLAT!

Good thing he wasn’t wearing a suit. In fact, he was wearing his usual casual clothing meant for escaping. “OLIVIA WATCH OUT!” Jace’s fast Kendo reflexes deflected the other cake that was aimed towards his date. He swatted out the cake out of Olivia’s way and accidentally hit someone with his caked hand. “S-SORRY!”
