She squeezed him back. That felt SUPER nice, and made him feel less weird about his random squishy-ness. He was still smiling when she looked up at him, but not so much in a happy way, just smiling because he had to be. "Yeah." He said. Let's change the subject now, yeah??! Before he thought of anything to say, she was hugging him, like proper. He could get used to this, you know. Theo squeezed her tightly back. Okay, so his moves weren't good enough to convince her to stick around for another dance. No biggie, though, since he had already gotten more than he bargained for. "So nice." He added with a nodding smile. "Thanks for dancing with me." Ahh, yes... West. It looked like the band was taking a break from playing so Theo was definitely gonna go and bro!tackle his bestie. "Will do. See ya around, Miss Bishop." And because his mission was to kiss Ella tonight, he gave her a cheeky peck on her cheek, but before his face could BURN red, he had disappeared to go and find his bud. |

Louis couldn't help but chuckle softly when the music suddenly came to an end and he was forced to release the girl, giving her back her personal space though their hands remained linked. "Sounds good," the boy replied as Delilah asked if he wanted to get something to eat. He wasn't really very hungry since he'd spent most of the night just snacking on sweets after everyone bailed, but if Delilah wanted food he might as well keep her company. "We can eat at my table if you want, there's nobody there." |
Delilah might as well eat something before the band started to play again. She kiiind of planned on staying for the entire concert.. but she still had loads of homework to finish. SIGH. Decisions. Plus, all the excitement from earlier had made her feel a little tired. Just a bit. But now that Lou was here.. Yeah, no. Homework could wait. "Lead the way." She nodded with a small smile. |

SPOILER!!: Annalee :3 Kace nodded when she was explaining why she did it. Yeah it was true, he didn't feel the same way. He only just saw her as a friend. Plus he had a huge crush on Emmylou right now. He did really miss her and wished she was here. She even admitted she didn't feel bad about it. He smiled and responded, "I wouldn't of asked you too. I am just glad we all got our feelings into the open and now we won't feel sooooo awkward..." he shrugged and chuckled, then he looked toward the dance floor. He noticed Awar dancing by herself and he really wanted to join her. "Hey do you wanna come and dance with my friend Awarlesta? She looks like she can use a few friends to dance with. What do you say?" he asked her. "Unless you wanna stay here and chill out that is fine too. Also on a side note, we will always be friends. No matter what happens." he said and hugged her. He walked away to let her deal with her confusion. He wanted to dance some more to be honest. SPOILER!!: Lesta! :3 Kace invited Annalee to come and dance but he understood if she didn't want to. He made his way to the dance floor because he still wanted to dance. He maneuvered through the crowd until he found his best friend. "Hey do you need a dance partner!?" |
Text Cut: Kace Bear come to save the day!! :D Awar halted her crazy limbs flailing when she heard a familiar voice near her ear, GASP "Kace Bear!" People-Squished Bear Hug! Grabbing his hand, she twirled him around, "I'd love a dance partner!" Yaaay, no more lonely dancing! |

You know what was nice, though? Hugging. Theo had come quite a long way from his cootie days and Ella was glad this wasn't weird for either of them like it would have been a while back. She was a hugger by nature so he'd have to get used to it, yeah? At least now she knew he wouldn't push her away when she tried. "No problem. I enjoyed it." Truly. Ella would have to make Theo's dance moves the talk of the girls bathroom or something, help him with the ladies. What were friends for, right? "Later, Mr. Kins--" BLINK! Ella's eyebrows raised at the peck on the cheek and where she'd normally overthink this, this time she just laughed and shook her head. That's right, Theoman. Run away. Grin! Now it was time for a cookie and then back to work. Maybe this being friends thing wasn't going to be so hard after all. |

He held out his hand and said, "Come on!" then he took her to the center of the dance floor and started to dance crazily. He was even doing the chicken dance for laughs. He was having so much fun this term. This is how he expected the half hearted ball to be. |

Aaaaand... if you think Lottie wouldn't notice a blush, then you're mistaken as well. Text Cut: Vesper! ^_^ "It makes sense. Practice makes perfect." Everyone knew this. Magic, Quidditch, music, life. Practice made you better, no kidding. The last bit she didn't know but she supposed to be true, particularly coming from Vesper. "He's amazing with the audience, too." Just saaaying. AND SHE WAS SO EXCITED. Vesper, that is. Therefore, Lottie was a bit too, because it was contagious! "I think I told you that when I first heard you play, remember? Halloween?" That's when they met, wasn't it? Vesper had known who Lottie was, just not the other way around. She remembered Ascanius being in the room, too. Clearly on the lookout for talent. "Today was the first time I heard you sing, though." BEAM. At her 'group' comment the Hogwartian nodded and suppressed words about no need for four members, "You are, I haven't heard you separately, but I agree," they complemented each other. BUT WAIT. "I demand the best seats and backstage passes when you guys get to tour all over the world, by the way. Sydney, Tokio, London, New York, wherever." Wink. That'd be brilliant. Like getting Quidditch tickets from Dylan, right? Reaction noticed, yup, and this girl merely smirked. How cute, Vesper. The Ravenclaw had her full attention now as she listened to the explanation, "I think it's brilliant, you have to show me how it's done." Nod, nod, nod. It's a must. "Later, not now, of course." There was no hurry. That question surprised her. A lot. A LOT. It wasn't a question she got too often, you know? Actually, besides Alec, this is the first time someone has asked about Tag. Her eyes lit up, however, and she shook her head, "Not here," she did smile, but honestly, she didn't feel like saying where he was? He was up in the Gryffindor tower, but she wasn't used to these sort of questions. And then she laughed, "Not exactly? Like, it's not much of a special day, it's just the 14th day of February, that's all. We both feel that way." Mmhmm. Vesper did too, you could tell. |
SPOILER!!: Kace and his friend Anna looked at her and sighed, dabbing her tears away. She knew it was stupid but part of her had really hope that maybe he’d change his mind… She sighed and shook her head mentally still trying to calm herself down, reminding herself she shouldn’t have gotten her hopes up. She looked up at him and gave a nod, “Yeah, we don’t.” Well… at least he didn’t… She still felt horrible for kissing him, and now knowing that she’d made a fool of herself, it was always going to be weird for her. She looked up again as he asked if she wanted to dance again, but before she got a chance to reply he’d gone off… Anna looked down and sighed after hugging him back and took a few moments to still try to calm down. She sighed, and again, wiped a few stray tears. She straightened herself and forced herself to stand and go over to them, but when they got close Kace had pulled the girl away again. She looked at the two of them, not really sure if she should go join them or not… He had invited her to come, but it kinda seemed that he wanted her to stay away… Maybe she should just go back up to the common room for the night and forget her chance of having fun. |
For Kace And Friend. Sorry for not quoting Awar let out a squeal as Kace pulled her away into the middle of the crowd. She let loose, shaking her arms in the air, shaking her hips everywhere, and even joined his chicken dance by flapping her "wings". See, this is by far way better with friends! In mid twirl, she caught the sight of Kace's friend and she didn't look too happy. She slowed down, placing a hand on a boogie-ing Kace. "Hey, is your lady friend, okay?" Awar nudged him towards the other Hufflepuff and gave him the "Do something" look. |

The boy then led Delilah over to the table where he and his friends had met up at the beginning of the event, which was obviously empty by now. He pulled a chair for her before proceeding to sit down, beside her. Despite his efforts to distract himself with the cupcake that had started to taste like newspaper after having had entirely too many throughout the night, Lou couldn't help looking over at his friend every once in a while. She was so effortlessly pretty and it was a little distracting. He'd always known she was far better-looking than the average girl, but it seemed more noticeable now. It probably had something to do with the alley. ... It totally had something to do with the alley. "Um..." Louis seemed a bit surprised with himself, as if he didn't realize that his mouth had decided to speak out on its own, "After this, would you like to..." Err. What was he doing. "Go somewhere?" He was already regretting the invitation. HE WASN'T SUPPOSED TO. Hello?! What happened to that wise little voice in his head?! But. But. But. "Uh-- we don't have to if you don't want to," he quickly added as if trying to redeem himself. Nope. Nah. Still ashamed. |
Text Cut: Brynn “YES! TWO INCHES! They’re the tallest ones I’ve EVER owned!!!” Fern reached down and measured the heal with her index finger and thumb, then held them up for Brynny to see. “Two inches! I’ve been practicing walking in them around the second year room all month!” She followed Brynn’s line of sight, and Fern couldn’t help it. She wrinkled her nose. [b] “Here, don’t worry Brynny, just-,” Fern grabbed the hem of the tablecloth and, leaning over the chair she had reserved for her date, draped it over Brynny’s legs. “See, now all people can see is your...shirt.” “It will be fun! And then you’ll be pretty and grown-up too!” Fern gave Brynny a broad grin, and she added, “Next year is going to be so great. I’m going to be a teenager, and you will have a makeover, and we’ll be the two most popular girls at this school. Plus my cousin Tallulah. So the three most popular.” The Hufflepuff sighed. She could picture it now, and it was be.a.utiful. Brynny might be over it, but Fern was definitely not. Any guy who wronged her BFF was unforgiveable. Kace would get what was his, and in the meantime, they would find Brynny a great boyfriend…and Fern would do a thorough background check on him first. “Eeeeeh! I know I know I know!” Fern’s heals click-clacked against the stone floor as she tapped them in excitement, practically bouncing out of her seat. She could hardly believe it either. Actually she totally could! And this night was going to CHANGE EVERYTHING! Fern had no doubt she would be experiencing her first kiss before the night was out. But then Brynny wasn’t looking so excited. Oh. She had realized. With that shirt, and even with the table skirt covering her pants, there was no way she could be sitting at the table when Dante appeared. It just wasn’t going to work. She was right. Fern should have told her. They could have worked something out, picked out a different outfit, dyed Brynny’s hair. But Fern had thought her friend was going to be busy having fun with Kace. “I’m sor – wait. Brought what? Or WHO!? OMG TELL ME BRYNNY TELL ME DON’T CRY I’M YOUR BFF YOU CAN TELL ME ANYTHING!!!” |
Anyone Why did she even bother coming? She didn't have a boyfriend... or even a crush, especially not this term with everyone getting all old and all that. Somehow, though, Lily still ended up at the prefect event. They were always interesting in the past, so she figured this term would be no different. The only problem was that she had no idea what to do now that she was at the event. She was definitely not going in the tunnel of love and certainly not planning on going to any other stations that involved love. She'd be content just sitting here listening to the music... or eating food, while watching other people be in love. Or at least she'd sit here for now in her muggle clothes and running shoes... |
I'm so sorry this is late. <3 Text Cut: FearlessLeader19 So this date was nothing like what Sophie expected her first date to be like. She actually expected herself to be a jittery mess. She thought she'd be nervous and awkward and say sentences that made absolutely no sense whatsoever. But she wasn't doing any of those things. She was actually at ease, which was probably due to the fact that she and Adi had been friends since first year. "Oh, cool...pictures," she said. "My family doesn't take much pictures, so this'll be a cool experience. I mean, we take pictures, it's just...we have wizarding pictures around the house." The Greingoths just weren't for the Muggle way of doing things. They had nothing against Muggles, but they were just more comfortable with magic. Sophie laughed at Adi's reaction to her own reaction about the gifts. "Well, I've never been anybody's Valentine before, and I thought I'd be nervous, but I'm not," she replied. "And I'd never have told you no in front of everybody." She'd have only done that if it was somebody she didn't like or somebody she needed to get even with. "Okay, so...the photo booth? You lead the way." She turned in the direction of the photo booth and waited for Adi to lead the way. OOC: Next post at the photo booth? |

Luckily enough, there was no further complaint from his joints for the time being, which definitely kept his spirits high and a smile on his face. "Totally fine by me, Soph," the Hufflepuff said, taking the hand that Sophie had offered and starting out (slowly) onto the dancefloor. Toby was still smiling; it really was a fabulous mood he was in. The ball and everything was super amazing, and he was here with his bestie, so of course he was gonna enjoy the entire thing. "Merlin, I suppose I have an entertaining shuffle or two in my repertoire to impress you with." He hadn't been awful in those dance lessons after all (hadn't trod on that Slytherin girl's feet even once), and was feeling pretty mobile today, but Tobias knew better than anyone that he was much more graceful in the air than he was on his feet. Still, there was hope, and Tobias was pretty sure that Sophie toes would be safe. |
Second set yo: You Really Got Me, by The Kinks SPOILER!!: I'm with the band It felt good connecting through music, not just to band mates, but to the audience yeah? And singing with Ves, West had a small smile on his face the entire time. Even better than their rehearsals. After he announced the break, West put his guitar down and scooped up a bro!hug each from Scan and Nigel, then turned to grab one from Ves but she'd already escaped. Uh.. well. Okay. No celebratory hugs from Ves then? He shrugged it off and jumped off the stage to head over to food. Well, and people, but mostly food. He grabbed a water bottle and loaded up a plate and his mouth then turned to head back... SPOILER!!: Bliss! BLISS WAS HERE! Okay. Alright. So MAYBE he shouldn't have been so excited that his ex girlfriend was watching right? He lit up though, because ex girlfriend or not, she was current friend and that mattered too. To him anyways. He headed over there. "Hey! I'm real glad to see you! I hope you're enjoying the show and all..." Paaause. Grin. "We can chat after if you like? I don't properly have time right now and all." He sorta gestured to his food and water bottle and then up at the stage again. "Only got a few minutes. But uh... stick around yeah?" And he was gone. That quick. Because he didn't have that long to eat his food and refresh himself. SPOILER!!: Beverly and Adelaide West grinned at that little Beverly kid when he passed her. Enjoying the show then? That was good. He was especially glad when his housemates apparently enjoyed and approved, given they had to put up with plenty of practicing from him and Ascanius and all. And Adds! West gave her an excited wave, lighting up eagerly from a distance. It just meant so much having his mates here. Maybe she'd dance with him later? He made a mental note to seek her out on the next break. SPOILER!!: Lottie And he could SEE Lottie fangirling there. So weird. But also awesome and appreciated. He gave her a wave but needed to take advantage of the break with food and other things so didn't go over to chat. Eh and he wasn't gonna have time to get Theo hugs either was he? Those could come later. ----------------- He popped outside for a bit, finished his food and took care of other things, then came back in feeling better. He kept hold of his water bottle though as he headed back to the stage, climbed up, and got situated. A few swigs of his water and West picked his guitar up again, ready to get back into it. The others got big smiles from him as they came back to the stage too. Second set time! "This next song is by a band called The Kinks... You Really Got Me." As was his habit, he licked the pad of his thumb before he started playing the opening notes. His eyes landed on Olly. Oh she was HERE? Awesome. Grin. He started singing, eyes still on the Hufflepuff. "Girl... you really got me going... you got me so I don't know what I'm doing... yeah you really got me now... you got me so I can't sleep at night... Yeah you really got me now... you got me so I don't know what I'm doin' now... Oh yeah you really got me now... you got me so I can't sleep at night..." He looked over at Ves as she joined in on the You Really Got Me's, and then he pushed his hair out of his face in the brief pause before the next verse, and this time he sought out Alice. There she was. Brows to you girlfriend. "See... don't ever set me free... I always wanna be by your side... Girl... you really got me now... you got me so I can't sleep at night..." Soon enough it was time to rest his voice and let his guitar sing. That was always his favourite part. He grinned back at Nigel and went hard, completely lost in the moment and yet still being a total showboat and putting it all out there in the audience, as if he was singing specifically to every single girl out there. But don't worry, Alice, it was just the music. ooc: I have permission for the band!moding |
With the Band SPOILER!!: Pen "I know," he played off casually with his trademark smirk. To be honest, he didn't know that they were doing great; sure, he felt it, all that energy and the feeling of being in sync with his bandmates, but he didn't know how it translated out here. And he was glad that she was enjoying the music 'cause he liked her to be proud of him. Her opinion meant a lot, yeah? When he caught West's eye, he noticed that his bandmate was preparing for the next set and cursed under his breath. He needed like two more seconds to kiss the girlfriend good luck and wink at a few other ladies in the audience. But it seemed like all of that would have to wait 'cause they were starting sooner then he'd like. Eh, he would have to settle for less. The sixth year quickly kissed his girlfriend and whispered, "Catch you after, babe." Then he grabbed a water bottle and jumped back on stage heading to the back where his drum set was situated. SPOILER!!: Don't Worry, We're With The Band He gulped back some of his water and took the towel that, before the show, he had set right next to his seat to wipe at his face. He had musician sweat, which was the best kind because it meant that he was into it. Like real into it, yeah? Pfft. None of that half-done crap here. This was a Dead Kneazles show. (The first one, but who cared...start strong, he always said.) Twirling his drumsticks inbetween his fingers, Ascanius tested out the bass pedal while West set up their next set. Right, the kinks. Less throwing his limbs around to really get the drum hits out. This was a smaller box of playing and a good transition song to start their set. Keeping it light and almost groovy, yeah he'd go as far as to say that, Ascanius underscored the rest of the band's music. And the vocals. Which were important, y'know? Though, he didn't miss West basically giving eyes to every single girl in the audience. Kudos. He was the guy singing...every girl was looking at him anyway........Ascanius admired the female attention tactic. Impressive. He glanced quickly at Nigel and silently almost asked him if he wanted to pick up the tempo on this song... 'cause it was dragging a little for his taste. 'Sides he felt it could use a little more, what did Vesper always say, noise. Yeah, more noise for sure. So he did a lick on his cymbal and played out the song strong. OOC. Band!Moding...'tis a thing. |

Then, casually, she brought a hand up to feel her hair. Felt smooth and soft still, which meant the potion hadn't worn off and her hair was still nice and brown and in its normal state. Good. 'Least she still looked okay. "Do you?" An enthused grin spread across her face and she released his hand, turned to face him, and took a step back to give him room. "Let's see, then -" she began, just as the stereo system's music was switched off and the band had taken to the stage again. West introduced the next song, and she had no idea what it was, but as it started, she bounced a little in place to the beat. It was a groovy groove. "Aww this is good, you'll have the band to cheer you on. Show me your moves, Tobes. Impress me," the second year half-teased, half-encouraged, then did a little twist and shimmy of her own, just as she had promised to potentially look silly with him. She didn't care, though - her whole face had lit up with the utmost glee. DANCIN' WITH THE TOBEMEISTER. |
SPOILER!!: Both Awarlesta and Annalee :3 Kace left Annalee to get some air. He will admit that. The situation was kind of too awkward for him, but he was being nice about it. As he was dancing with Lesta, he noticed she got the courage to go and join them. He even felt Lesta touch him on his shoulder and asked him about her. "Ummm...well...its complicated.." he began. "I mean...she was the one who kissed me on the dance floor and now things have gotten awkward a little bit.." he said to Awarlesta. He didn't want anyone to know yet and plus he trusted her. "What do you think i should do?" He saw Annalee waiting for him and he smiled and waved towards her to acknowledge he saw her. |
SPOILER!!: You two :) She looked over at them, then timidly walked over. She really was thinking the common room would be smart at this point... just go and chill out She sighed slightly as she looked between the two of them, already feeling like she was the one outside... This was her fault after all... She was the one who was stupid, and she was the one who'd probably ruin the night if she stayed... Anna started to take a step away but stopped herself, She would try to get back to normal before she ran off... |

Tugging Dora closer by her hands, she crept onto her friend's toes and wiggled emphatically in an attempt to dance. Really, what was dancing? Moving your body around in an artistic fashion? She supposed what she was doing could be considered artistic by the standards of someone. It could. And look, the Beatles song was over, so they had the live stuff again. See? Alice pushed the Ravenclaw's mouth up into a smile. Be happy. She paused a couple of times in her so called 'dancing' to glance over at the stage again, and..... was West singing to Olly? Those lyrics paired with his line of sight didn't do very nice things for her head, especially with glances to Vesper following right after. The seventh year watched him until he shifted his gaze off of her, then went back to her Dora cheering up. Bests were more important than boyfriends who liked to serenade the whole female population of the school, right? Right. |
Quote:
Swaying to the music, she was subconsciously aware of the change in beat, and the little tug closer to the astronomer professor. A twitch of a smile had appeared, no doubt having gone unnoticed, but the singing...the singing close to her ear...was all but missed. A breath of a faint giggle escaped her as she smiled warmly, leaning her head softly upon his shoulder. Even with the elder age, he still sang wonderfully. Reluctantly though, with the upcoming upbeat song, she lifted her head and glanced to the stage. Oh? Really...upbeat. Her finger started to tap a little to the music upon Airey's arm before she looked to him. "Do you vont to get something to drink...or something?" They didn't haaaaave to staaaaay. |
Quote:
Except that Alice wasn't giving her a chance to say no anymore, and she frowned dismally when she was tugged forward, trying her best not to look wounded by her best's previous lack of interest in dancing before for the sake of her public appearance. The live stuff helped. Dora rested her head on Alice's shoulder even though it wasn't a slow song to avoid fingers in her face, and unknowling started to sway a bit herself. Half-hearted swaying since it took a lot to look cavalier, unlike how she really felt. |
Quote:
"Please? Dance with me. You're being the killjoy now." She gave Dora another nudge and stroked her hair for a little while before pushing the other girl into a more upright position. "I'll give you two dances, even." Merlin. The things you do for friends. |
