Plain.

That was the word that rang through Mason's head as she stared into the mirror, her critical eye taking in every detail or flaw in her appearance. The white dress was simply cut, the pale material looking stark against the slits of tan skin it showed, her freshly dyed light brown hair falling in lazy waves on her bare shoulders. She ran a hand over the form-fitting material, smiling slightly to herself. Her previously boyish body was taking on an actual shape, even if it wasn't as curvaceous as she would have liked. Mason couldn't help but think about what her former self would have said if she were standing here instead, probably snorting at the dress, opting for one that she thought would attract the most attention . . . Ughh.

"You look beautiful, Steve." Her father said from beside her, her brother balanced on his hip. She couldn't help but smile at the old nickname, happy that she was spending her summer with her father. After the whole Monster-and-inevitable-death-thing, Mason had decided to forgive him, since the last thing she wanted was her for her to disappear and for him to go out thinking that she hated him. Running a hand over the dress one last time, Mason smiled to herself in the mirror before turning towards her father. "I won't be back too late - and you don't have to worry about me. I know how to handle myself." she said matter-of-factly, turning from the mirror and starting down the hall towards the fireplace. She stopped before it, reaching into the bowl atop the mantelpiece and throwing some of the content into the embers. Stepping inside, Mason hoped that not only would she actually arrive at the place, but also in one piece and preferable in a dress that wasn't stained with soot. She closed her eyes and said the name of Az's grandparent's home as clearly as she could -

And when she opened her brown eyes again, she was standing inside the floo of the lavishly decorated Manor. Mason couldn't help but grin when she saw everyone before her. Stepping out of the fireplace and dusting her dress off, she made her way towards them, heels clicking on the floor. "Ugh, you all look so beautiful." It was true, they all looked amazing. It made her question the simplicity of her own attire for the millionth time, but there was no going back now. "Azuraaa-" She practically sang as she approached her gorgeous friend, "Oh look at you, you're absolutely stunning! I've missed you so much." She said, practically tackling the Ravenclaw in an embrace. "Leon," she said as she let Az go, looking over her brother, "Looking immaculate as always." Even if she'd just met him once, she was pretty sure that was a very true statement. She turned towards the girl that was locked onto her arm, "You're Esme's sister," duh, "Juno, right? I'm Mason, I don't think we've officially met yet." The girl looked stunning in that gown. Ughh, she'd kill for legs like that.

And last put certainly not least - "Mel!" she greeted, grinning at her friend. "You look glorious. That dress looks absolutely spectacular on you, love." And a hug for Mel too, since she'd missed the Gryffindor as well.
