A Ball! a Ball! She's going to the Ball!
« on: October 06, 2009, 07:07:42 PM »
Ana strikes me as the type of woman who enjoys balls... at least, she enjoys them when she can pretend to be queen and lord over the crowd in her throne. Hogwarts gives her the perfect chance to do so. So... She wishes to have a ball.

My question is:

1. Is anyone else interested?

and

2. When should we have it? I am partial to things before the end of the year, but meh, I can go either way.

1.  Yes.  Yes.  OMG YES!

2. Not sure.  Christmas seems the best time for an elegant ball, but I can understanding wanting something for Halloween, too.  Why not a castle-wide trick or treat? I'm not sure how it could be made to flatter Analiza, though.

I like the idea of a Halloween and Christmas.  Halloween would be the fun one and Christmas would be the more elegant one, probably pomp and circumstance, something for them to be like "LAAAAA! LOOK AT US."  :)

Jordyn is just happy to have occasions to dress up for :P
I remember daddy told me fairy tales can come true, but you gotta make them happen, it all depends on you!  So I worked real hard each and everyday, now things for sure are going my way.  Just doing what I do, look out boys I'm coming through!

I loooove the idea of a wintry ball, all fancy and stuff, but Halloween sounds hard to resist because I'm sort of impatient, haha and I have an endless loop of Mean Girls scenes playing through my head!

Halloweeeeeeeen!!!

Haha, ok, I like the idea of a Halloween ball because:

A) We only have to wait till the end of October in the timeline, whoooo!
B) I want to see crazy costumes and creepy decorations.
C) I love the dramaz that dances bring and I wanna RP it soon!

Plus, I am all for a more elegant Winter Ball later on, in addition to the Halloween one! :D

And because I need to:

Yes!  I finally voted and for other because I agree with all the multi-ball voters.

Ball it on up and toss it up!

Ooo... maybe have a professor or two be in charge of taking care of each one?


EDIT:  Or maybe separate committees of students?

Haha I can totally see Sasha volunteering because it seems the prefect-y thing to do and then having no idea what he's doing planning a social function.

Halloween! That would be SOOO fun!!

I could see Bea going there on her own and trying to steal people's dates and failing.

And I see Trent following Astrid around and/or being forced to go with Mysti by some odd incident. xD

And it would be better on Halloween because they get to dress up! Oh the fun!! :D
