homecoming dance!

[Balamb Garden has taken off around the Balamb coastline! The seaside and clear night sky can be seen through the windows and from the balconies. The halls 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 happily decorated ballroom 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 Homecoming Dance is now beginning. Your attendance is requested at [2F] Ballroom.

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

The ball and its festivities tonight are being sponsored very generously by the Garden Festival Committee.

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

[Within the ballroom, there is a stationary stand for punch and food, as well as roaming caterers offering drinks (grape juice) and canapes.]


Voting is now closed. There is a thread here for announcing and crowning the winners; on-lookers are free to react in the thread.

Attendance is entirely optional, so with most of the faculty at the dance, characters are free to roam the rest of the school! However, as Balamb Garden is flying around the Balamb coastline, they will not be able to leave (unless you can fly or really like heights and don't mind injuries...), and any characters left behind will be stranded for a few hours.

I don't get it... why would they? I would think... especially considering everything that's going on, that they would be aiming to be closer and such.

Because Zak is secretly shy and convinced Mikuru would never be interested in him, and Maria is shy and never even thought about dating, so when he asked her out she panicked and turned him down, and he took it personally, and she thought she'd messed everything up forever...
shiest_sunbeam: (Hm?)

[Ronnae blinked a few times in surprise.]

Zak....? Shy? I never would have guessed. I mean, I can see Mikuru's issue but Zak always seemed so confident in himself.

[Maria shakes her head, sadly.]

That's not confidence. He talks big and acts -- the way he does, here, because he ISN'T confident and is trying to hide it.

[personal profile] shiest_sunbeam 2012-09-11 05:22 pm (UTC)(link)
I ... I wouldn't have guessed.

[Somehow it was hard to believe that he was lacking in it from her last encounter with him, but Maria would know better since she has been here trying to help them out.]
gunbladegrrl: (playful)

[personal profile] gunbladegrrl 2012-09-12 01:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I'm sure he'll be glad to know it's working.

[personal profile] shiest_sunbeam 2012-09-12 06:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Well... What's the plan of action then?
gunbladegrrl: (Heh)

[personal profile] gunbladegrrl 2012-09-13 12:56 pm (UTC)(link)
You see if you can find Mikuru, and I'll see if I can find Zak, and... we play it by ear.
shiest_sunbeam: (Hm?)

[personal profile] shiest_sunbeam 2012-09-13 01:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Play it by ear?
shiest_sunbeam: (happy/surprised(good))

[personal profile] shiest_sunbeam 2012-09-13 06:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh!

I can do that, I think.
gunbladegrrl: (playful)

[personal profile] gunbladegrrl 2012-09-14 12:14 am (UTC)(link)
I hope so, you got the easy part.

[personal profile] shiest_sunbeam 2012-09-14 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
Well, best of luck then I suppose? I hope this goes well...
gunbladegrrl: (you have earned my skepticism)

[personal profile] gunbladegrrl 2012-09-14 01:10 pm (UTC)(link)
So do I, but that would be a pleasant change, so don't get your hopes up.

[personal profile] shiest_sunbeam 2012-09-14 09:32 pm (UTC)(link)
O-oh... okay... [And then Ronnae was off to attempt the impossible, beat the unbeatable r-- and all that...]
