Security reasons, and all that.

She gathered together half a dozen more tasty-looking things, placing each one on his plate with careful precision. There was, after all, significantly less room on a dessert plate than a main-course plate. |

It was a bit late for that now.

In the end, Morrigan did end up switching her dessert plate for an entree plate. She moved around the table, collecting what he was instructing her to collect, and eventually returned to his side, "There. Gathered together and ready for eating."
Or would be, once she found the forks. "You'll be able to dance after this, right? It won't stuff you?" |

"I'll need to dance or nap. Let's not wait too long before try out the dancing or I'll be unconscious." A jest. Rhys wasn't an old man, and he was eager to cut a rug... even if Morrigan couldn't dance at all.
"I wish I had four hands for you, my lady, but alas..." He offered an elbow instead and escorted her toward the tables.

So, deciding not to fight the hunger, the man made his way toward the buffet tables. Swiftly and silently, he grabbed a plate, walking around the other people who seemed to be preoccupied with filling their plates with one thing or another and headed straight for the raviolis. His favorite pasta dish.
Ignoring the glares coming from the people who had not had the sense to just cut around the slow people and take what they wanted, he grabbed a fork and a napkin, glanced at the rather full seating area and pondered what to do next.

Originally Posted by SilverTiger Things were obviously going on around them, but Dorian generally only paid the slightest bit of attention. It was enough that he was still aware, as he always was, but it meant he wasn't pat to have anyone expect much of him. Not fro now, at least, even if it was irritating to Laurie the impromptu escort. At least she'd seemed amused at his response to her question, which gave him a brief moment or two to once again think back on work. Celebrating like this when he knew the real instigator was stil out there just seemed off, even if nobody else shared his paranoia. He'd raised an eyebrow again at her qualifier, however. Now the tables were turned, and it seemed she was trying to avoid the topic. Interesting, he thought, even as she finished the sentence.
"Painting is nothing to be ashamed of. Creativity," he commented idly, watching her for a second. He'd never really had the patience or the talent for it, but then Gabriel had always distracted him, even before the disastrous spell attempt and the fallout. Not to mention Gwendolyn, who he'd always thought should have been an artist. But he was oddly grateful as Laurie had spoken again, breaking through the memories trying to break free again. "What made you decide to become a prosecutor? Why not just focus on art?," he asked, completely without any underlying intent. Even though he'd avoided basically the same when it had been asked of himself. Laurie looked up at Dorian and smiled. "I'm not ashamed of it exactly. It's just...people don't understand it." Like her parents for one. Whatever. It was peaceful and she enjoyed it. One of the few things she did enjoy. Hearing his question she shrugged. "Dad paid the first years worth of tuition and after that I scored well enough to earn myself a scholarship in Criminal Justice and then to law school." She picked up a grape and rolled it between her fingers inspecting it. "He said art wouldn't pay the bills and so here we are." Popping the grape in her mouth she shrugged again. "I don't think I'd find the enjoyment I do now if I painted for a living. It clears my mind in a way."
Turning toward him she raised an eyebrow. "Now...I answered the question you avoided. You answer the same. What got you into MLE?" It was only fair right? Yup. |

Phe had made it through the line, albeit, slowly. People were so picky about their food, weren't they? She'd just made one plate, adding a few things that she wanted to it, but mostly it was for TJ. Maybe it was the fact that she was all dressed up and fancy looking, but she wasn't quite hungry.
She was about to go back to find TJ when she spotted someone familiar. THAT was saying something, really, since she didn't know many people who worked in the Ministry. She hadn't really been around long enough.
"Well, well. Look who it is." She grinned as she stepped up to the man, "I wasn't expecting to see you here." Didn't seem like his SCENE. |

| ♣ Heejin here | Did somebody say coffee & cakes? | cat lover ♣ And it was time to eat.
Alexander did take his plate and took a glance over the buffet table. It looks very delicious. Alexander didn't eat that much earlier since he was preparing on what to wear for the party. Normally, his wife is the one who takes care of his outfit. So not having her to pick them out for today made him panicked. Thankfully, he didn't look stupid on what he picked out.
Anyways, Alexander picked out whatever that looks really good to eat. Like the lasgna and the kebab. Wow. Those looked really mouth-watering.

There was no way he was getting a seat alone, was there? It seemed as though all of the tables had at least two people at them, which was two people too many for him.
He shifted the plate to another hand, wondering what he could possibly do about the current situation when he heard a voice. A familiar voice. How odd. His head turned toward the sound, seeing a familiar blond head. "You. I know you, Blondie." Right, right. Now.. what was her name. "Ophelia, was it?" Yeah, he was REALLY good at names. Which was surprising. "Yeah, well.. I had nothing better to do." Honestly. Plus, he had to admit to himself that he cleaned up nicely.

Yeah, she had a name, thanks!
"You had nothing better to do than come here to scowl disapprovingly at everyone?" She smirked, amused with her own wit. He just.. wasn't the type of guy she'd think was very... chatty. Hmm.
"And I see you're even wearing shoes tonight." Hehhee. |

As he got a response to his idle comment about her painting, Dorian nodded slightly. "Ah," he replied simply. There seemed to be more of a story behind that, but if Laurie wasn't willing to offer it up, he wasn't about to pry. It wasn't in his nature, even notwithstanding his employment in MLE. Besides, CMEC wasn't as focused on interrogation as some other parts of the department. "So your father influenced your decision," he added as she answered his question about what had brought her to the Ministry. It wasn't condemnation, just an idle check that she'd meant what she'd said. Most people didn't think art was a valid career choice, honestly. Just because he'd never had to deal with that... "That's entirely possible." Some things were just better as hobbies.
But then the topic was back on himself, and he tried not to sigh. He couldn't deny she had the logic part down, that any lawyer would have, and he'd dealt with a few. "Nothing like your story, I have to say." If he had to answer, it was going to be on his own terms. And he honestly didn't have all the education she'd had, not at any school. "Personal experiences simply made this job a good fit, even if sometimes it's proven more difficult than it should."

Originally Posted by McFeisty Chelsea hadn't meant to make Dean embarrassed - and really, the whole idea of the ball had just scared her a bit as well since she hadn't been to one since. Well, they didn't really have balls in Los Angeles. Sure they had Galas and movie openings but she was not a star. No this little witch stayed out of the limelight as a kid yes, very much out. She wasn't sure she even liked balls but dressing up and having a good time was always fun right?
Especially when Fire Whisky and other such drinks were involved. "Well, I think their whole sweetness really comes from the height difference...imagine portraits you'd always have to have Jax sitting or you'd just get the tip of Ali's head." Fair point. But it was adorable - she loved her roommate and now Step-Sister in Law with all her heart. She smiled brushing the edge of the slip in dress slightly. "Honestly, Dean I think we both have our own sweetness really...its a different kind though - ours is well, new...we just need to learn more about each other." She smiled over to him her stomach growled as she heard him speak of food. Yes she was hungry. "Yeah food sounds wonderful about now - I haven't had much at all today to be honest" she blushed softly. Yeah she had eaten a Bran Muffin while running off to work that morning - and that was it nothing more. Just a stupid muffin. Dean chuckled listening to Chelsea describing Jax's and Ali's heights difference. It was funny, but adorable too. Needed to know more about each other? Oh... That can be arranged, alright. "Do you want to stop by at my place afterwards? I've Firewhiskey," that was a good pick up line, wasn't it? Dean had never had a girl in house before. Not even his mother. Oho~ Was that a growling stomach he heard from Chelsea? "I heard that," he grinned as he leaned closer to whisper to her. Then, Dean took the lady's hand and led her to the buffet table.
Hogwarts was definitely the last time when he had seen so many delicious food all on one table. That reminded him how much he had grown over the past years. The mixture of smells from the buffet table was enough to make Dean's stomach growled louder. Better do something before someone else heard it. Dean grabbed a plate and passed it to Chelsea and gave way for his girlfriend in front of him. After that, he took a plate for himself and filled it till it was almost full. Yup, he can eat that much. |

| Baguette | there is no D in my name | TRAITORclaw | Queenie of Narnia Once he had finally entered the ballroom, Atticus made his way over to the buffet table. He was rather hungry, so at least he had a reason to hang around this area for a little bit. There was a great deal of food here too, so it would likely take him a little bit to figure out what he wanted. After grabbing a plate, he slowly moved down the side of the table, taking his time to decide whether he wanted to eat whatever happened to be in front of him at the time or not. It all looked delicious, but all of it wouldn't fit on his plate. Hm...

She now needed a dance, it's been quite a while since she enjoyed herself with music. It was her boyfriend leaving, and then her father's death. Now, though, was the opportunity where she acted like a queen and enjoyed herself. Having no partner, however, obliged her to move on from the dancing to the joy of food. She walked over toward the buffet table.
And the first person to see there was the man appointed instead of that snappish woman in Magical Creatures department. Marina saw him once or twice when she was getting into the break room, where the two departments met. She'd never spoken to him before, though. "Enjoying the evening well, mister?" Marina greeted the man with a small curtsy and a smile. She was standing next to him but looked at the table trying to decide what to eat that wouldn't make her tummy pop out. |

At her next words, Holden's eyes fell on his feet, and he couldn't help but smirk at the woman again. "Of course. My shoes are safe tonight. Unless you have some more of that foul smelling ink up your sleeve."

"Though perhaps I should buy you some, you can keep it on your desk to remember me by." She was SO sure that he would sniff it every day.

Atticus was picking up a mini sandwich when a vaguely familiar woman suddenly greeted him. He was fairly sure he had seen her around Level 4, but he was also fairly she was part of the Environment Department rather than his, so he didn't know her name. "I am," he replied with a nod. He supposed he was enjoying the evening, at least. "How about you?" Hopefully she enjoyed these balls more than he did.

Marina grabbed a glass of red liquid that she had no idea what it was and sipped. It was good, not great but fine. She just hoped it wasn't something to harm her system or worse something not organic or environment friendly. "I just got here actually." In a reply to the polite man next to her, "But yeah, I love celebration. Time to get rid of all the stress that was around work earlier." Ahem. She sipped again before saying the thing that should've been said way before then, "I am Marina Stewart, by the way. I work in Environmental Protection department." Just in case he didn't recognize her, she held her hand out for the man to shake it. "Nice to meet you, sir." Or someone who seemed neutral. Heh. She didn't want to run into that tornado!man.
..speaking of whom, shouldn't he be around here? Doing crazy cartwheels or something? He looked very upset toward Borr last time Marina saw him. More upset than anyone she'd encountered, in fact. Heh. It was good that he probably wouldn't recognize her while being this fancy. |

HAH. Yeah, right. Holden crossed his arms, which was considerably difficult seeing as he was holding a plate and all. But he managed. "You sure? How do i know you haven't.. hidden it elsewhere." He smirked at her, toying.
Again, he rolled his eyes. Merlin, he was feeling like such a girl with all of this eye rolling. "Oh? Well, i wouldn't want you to waste that money of yours. Maybe i should take some of that to Madam Primpernelle's and ask if they could make a perfume. I'd send you some for Christmas. Wouldn't that be just.. lovely." the man raised a brow.

Again, he rolled his eyes. Merlin, he was feeling like such a girl with all of this eye rolling. "Oh? Well, i wouldn't want you to waste that money of yours. Maybe i should take some of that to Madam Primpernelle's and ask if they could make a perfume. I'd send you some for Christmas. Wouldn't that be just.. lovely." the man raised a brow. Well, no. No, she was not hiding anything anywhere.
Except for her wand, that is.
Phe eyed him. "Are you trying to shoo away all of my potential suitors?" She laughed at the usage of the word and shook her head, "That's not very nice. No one will want to date me if I smell like vomit." |

Not even his mother. Oho~ Was that a growling stomach he heard from Chelsea? "I heard that," he grinned as he leaned closer to whisper to her. Then, Dean took the lady's hand and led her to the buffet table.
Hogwarts was definitely the last time when he had seen so many delicious food all on one table. That reminded him how much he had grown over the past years. The mixture of smells from the buffet table was enough to make Dean's stomach growled louder. Better do something before someone else heard it. Dean grabbed a plate and passed it to Chelsea and gave way for his girlfriend in front of him. After that, he took a plate for himself and filled it till it was almost full. Yup, he can eat that much. Chelsea smiled over to Dean when he chuckled, a drum struck look falling upon her face when she realized what she had said - and what he had garnered from it. Oh well Fire Whiskey and a good chat was always good right?. "That sounds good - it would give me a change to escape Walven" she hadn't seen either tonight so far and was actually quite glad. Really. She was getting rather peeved with her roommate trying to start things with Dean after all Dean was nice. Dean wasn't a jerk like Raven always said...Raven was just jealous that she had found someone before her...and maybe she was just not into relationships but she didn't know nore did she care right now.
Tonight she had bigger fish to fry.
Chelsea blushed when he said that he'd heard her stomach growling. "Oh really?" she asked chuckling, turning back over to him as he handed her the plate "Thank you Dean," she smiled accepting the plate and quickly looking for what Delicious things she wanted to eat. Well something that wouldn't be too messy of course and didn't smell so bad, and there was a whole list of things to avoid since well...she didn't want to reek or ruin her dress...A laugh escaped her. She was thinking around the realms of magic she could always magick away a spill. "Everything just looks sooo good" she chuckled placing a roll on her plate before piling a large helping of Pasta and Caeser Salad on her plate...healthy with an extra dose of vampire begone.

Originally Posted by SilverTiger As he got a response to his idle comment about her painting, Dorian nodded slightly. "Ah," he replied simply. There seemed to be more of a story behind that, but if Laurie wasn't willing to offer it up, he wasn't about to pry. It wasn't in his nature, even notwithstanding his employment in MLE. Besides, CMEC wasn't as focused on interrogation as some other parts of the department. "So your father influenced your decision," he added as she answered his question about what had brought her to the Ministry. It wasn't condemnation, just an idle check that she'd meant what she'd said. Most people didn't think art was a valid career choice, honestly. Just because he'd never had to deal with that... "That's entirely possible." Some things were just better as hobbies.
But then the topic was back on himself, and he tried not to sigh. He couldn't deny she had the logic part down, that any lawyer would have, and he'd dealt with a few. "Nothing like your story, I have to say." If he had to answer, it was going to be on his own terms. And he honestly didn't have all the education she'd had, not at any school. "Personal experiences simply made this job a good fit, even if sometimes it's proven more difficult than it should." "I guess you could say that," Laurie replied with yet another shrug. "It was never a strong enough passion for me to pursue like that anyway. Like I said...just a hobby." And she didn't hold her father responsible for that it was just the way things worked out.
Way to be vague. Looking away she shook her head slightly and took another sip of her drink. "You should know I'm as stubborn as they come..." she said with a slight smirk in his direction before picking out some more fruit. She'd get her answer at some point it was just a matter of time. "Fine, Mr. Tamerlane, you win this round." She eyed him curiously for a moment almost trying to see through him and shrugged. "Alright, so tell me this, why don't you have a girlfriend? Do you just not have time for one? You're quite good looking. I'm sure it's not a problem of no one wanting you." She knew she didn't have that problem. She had the opposite, with everyone hitting on her even ignoring the obvious not interested sign on her forehead. Though she did have the time problem but more by choice since she had commitment and trust issues that had just increased ten fold. Sigh. |

Phe eyed him. "Are you trying to shoo away all of my potential suitors?" She laughed at the usage of the word and shook her head, "That's not very nice. No one will want to date me if I smell like vomit." He eyed her, not completely certain whether she was telling the truth or not. So his best bet was to just.. keep his eyes on her.
Merlin, did he have trust issues.
The man paused and raised an eyebrow at her. "Of course not. That's preposterous." He stated. Someone was a bit full of herself, wasn't she? Not that he should be talking.. "Well, i suppose. I never exactly said you'd have to wear it. After all, who in their right mind would?"

"I suppose it's not as if you would know if I wore it anyway, unless you're planning on coming to visit me in Texas." She shifted the plate into her other hand and brushed her hair back. |

| Touzle Yes. This would do as a place to watch people. Tamara did a quick check of her dress to make sure it was still in... place and then began to scope out the joint. Yeah. No Jonah, no children, no worries. She could totally perv from the buffet tables. TOTALLY.
Brushing her hair back out of her face she put on her best smile and stood in a tempting little pose. See she was as delectable as the food. Hehe. Perhaps Tamara could wrangle herself a man before the ball was done and her carriage turned into a pumpkin or something terrible as such. |
