She looked thoughtfully at the both of them before turning her attention back to Junia with a smile. "Are you having a nice time?"
"Hey Etta!" Junia's lips tugged upwards into a radiant smile as the Hufflepuff approached, noting that the older girl's dress was a perfect representation of her personality. It was soft and cheerful and delicately pretty. The Slytherin liked it very much, she'd decided.
"Thank you. I really like your outfit, the color suits you." She nodded seriously before looking around, the mention of Sam causing her mind to wander momentarily.
"I am, yeah. He's around here somewhere, I'm sure. Probably chatting with friends. I just hope the girls aren't swarming all over him. He looks so good all dressed up and I'm fairly certain he'll be an attention magnet all evening." ...She blinked, surprised all of that had come out of her mouth when all she'd meant to say was that
yes, she had come with him. That was strange.
"Where's your boyfriend tonight?" She was allowed to ask, yes?
She kept dancing, swaying on the spot as she considered Etta's next question before answering.
"So far, so good. This ship is quite lovely, don't you think? I've always wondered what a ball would be like and here I am, getting to find out." She paused, then added,
"But I did think more people would ask me to dance. I look way nicer tonight than I do most days and I made sure my eye shadow brings out the color of my eyes. Has anyone asked you yet?" They both deserved to be asked in Junia's very honest opinion.
...Why was she talking so much again?

The blonde had spent so much time just laughing and cherishing each moment aboard the Merlin's Pride. Really... kudos to those people from their Board of Governors!
Still laughing and taking another sip from her drink, Vivian looked behind her and saw her other dorm mate, Junia. Naturally, the blonde waved at her fellow Slytherin. "Hey, Junia! You look absolutely lovely tonight!" Of course, they were all together at their dorms changing prior to being on the cruise ship, but she had to compliment her friend again because why not? Everyone looked stunning! "Where's your date?" She had a boyfriend, didn't she? The fourth year wondered where he might be. He'd left his princess on the dance floor!
"You're earning major friend points right now, Vivi." And doing wonders for the brunette's confidence, which was appreciated.
"Did I mention how much I like your outfit, yet? That color blue makes your eyes pop. You should try batting your lashes at someone and seeing what happens, bet you'd make some unsuspecting boy swoon." She grinned and then tucked some hair behind her ear, showcasing her stud earrings that sparkled just right when the light caught them.
"That seems to be the question of the evening. Hopefully he's around somewhere noticing how pretty I look and deciding he simply must dance with me. That's really the only thing that would make this night better." Really, truly.
