Graduation Ball

[Night has fallen on Balamb Garden; the halls of Garden are mostly deserted besides the stray student walking about, and even the usual faculty members are missing from their posts around the school. There's a certain festive energy through the air, the source coming from the Ballroom cheerily decorated located on the second floor.

At exactly 2100, as soon as the dinner rush ends, the Garden chime sounds and the intercom clicks on. The Headmaster speaks to the Garden.
]

The Graduation Ball is now beginning. Your attendance is requested at [2F] Ballroom.

I repeat, the Graduation Ball is now beginning. Your attendance is requested at [2F] Ballroom. The dance will run until 2400. Students leaving the ball after curfew are to return to their dorms immediately.


[After the announcement, the intercom falls silent. The faint sound of music can be heard from the second floor of the building.]


( Mod note: You may participate in the dance in comments to this post, or opt to make your own new post/log.

The dance isn't mandatory, so students that choose not to attend won't be punished. The Headmaster, Garden faculty and even some of the instructors are all present at the dance, so troublemakers are free to roam until 2400. The dance itself will last from 2100-2400 in the second floor ballroom and the music will be the same kind of upbeat peppy orchestrated pieces that the game used. Caterers will roam offering drinks and refreshments to attendants, as well a stationary stand for punch and food is offered.

Newly graduated SeeDs are required to wear their uniforms. Otherwise, the occasion is black tie. All inhabitants of Garden are welcome to the festivities.

Should players have any questions left unanswered feel free to ping the mods on AIM or via PM. )

[Alright, he couldn't help but let out a tiny smirk at that, but it's weak and short-lived.]

Could be a lot worse. Trust me.

[He pauses. He's still not the happiest with the whole situation but he knows better than to be completely rude to just about everyone.

Even if he was talking to a younger version of himself.]


So have you settled in yet?

[That unhappiness is pretty mutual. Even after a few days of being in the Garden, Keyku's had some trouble adjusting due to everything he left behind.

Still, he shrugs.]


Just barely. Still a lot to take in, especially with classes starting up.

[Tell him about it. And he was just about to head home after everything and his spiky biffle poofed on him.]

Yeah, it's not the easiest. The classes aren't so bad though, and neither are most people here.

[A pause and he sighs.] Not like the Islands though, obviously.

[...The islands.

For a split second, he winces. Then he looks away.]


Right. Not even close...

[Maybe that wasn't the best thing to say, but he can't take it back now. He just looks away in the opposite direction too.]

Actually, I haven't been home for over a year now. Sometimes I wonder if I really should, whether it's worth it to go back or not after everything that's happened.

At least you've got a home to return to.

[Granted, he would too, if he'dve closed the door.]

[identity profile] betweenpaths.livejournal.com 2011-10-18 05:58 am (UTC)(link)
You do too. Somewhere out there.

[He shrugs, rolling his shoulders and having a faint amused tone in his voice.] If not, we could always trade places or something. Destiny Islands is home to both of us.
