Even after he had gone to the trouble of finding proper attire, Brenley was still late. The reaper burst into the tent like he was going to get detention if he wasn't dancing, the coins and bangles hanging from his deep blue coattails jingling as he jolted to a stop. He swallowed, trying to wet his dry throat and calm his fluttering stomach, two indicators of nerves that were becoming all too familiar as of late. Bren attempted to push the feelings aside. Not tonight. It was worth a shot, but it didn't quite work.
After appearing to give the crowd a once-over but actually seeing nothing at all, the sorcerer nonchalantly slid over to the refreshments, taking shuffling little sideways steps rather than turning and walking properly. Maybe some food would help him feel less awkward.

That would be really cool! And it looks great so far!

Alice was right in her words. Eira looked stunning in her attire that she had chosen for Prom. Everyone actually looked absolutely stunning. Everyone was talking, dancing, having a good time. She was glad that she had actually taken the time to decide to come. It was more interesting than she thought it would be, considering she had never been to one of these Prom's.
Alice looked at Tk, and became slightly shy. "TK. Pleasure to meet your acquaintance." She hadn't met the boil before, and not exactly sure how to talk to one either. There was Frost in a Storm, but that was some time ago that she had last seen him. Hopefully she could keep her composure.
Alice had arrived at Prom with this dress, these shoes, with a pair of black tights and a matching headband.
At some point in time, Hel had come back from where she had run off to, with a rather funny look on her face. She had mixed feelings, and that much was apparent. Eager for another distraction though, she looked to where she had left Mot and Helmut, and was happy to see that they were still at the table and—
WAIT.
Was that…
She squinted.
Oh hai there, Salbei’s apprentice.
Hel had a conversation she needed to finish with you, especially in light of just very recent events.
That was why Hel blew past Mot and Helmut, and past Na’ima’s two dates, and grabbed the horsewoman by the arm.
“Borrowing!” She announced to the two horsemen loudly, and yanked the Famine Horsewoman away from them. She then made a dive for under the food table, dragging Na’ima with her. She then huddled close to her under the table, conspiratorially, pulling her knees up to her chest and inching even closer to the horsewoman until she was pressed up against her side.
“So about those love potions and truth serums~”

Yaya- Hadiyya had been bidding her time, enjoying the decorations and people watching while the band played through the first few songs of their set, but soon enough the song she had been asked to help with was up. Terra was already on stage, moving around as she played, Nahm was singing, the rest of the boils were playing, even Seiji had pried himself from his date and returned to the stage.
The djinn crossed the floor until she had gotten to the edge of the stage, then hoped up onto it, sitting with her legs crossed near the grue's feet. There was a spare mic there, and she picked it up, resting it in her lap between folded hands.
When they'd gotten to the height of the song she brought the mic up to her lips with a smile. The chorus came around again, and she joined Nahm, adding her own alto to The grue's already amazing voice. She got to her feet then, moving until she could stand beside Terra, back to back with the rapper ghoul.

The music slowed, then stopped and Roch headed for the bucket of waters to toss them to whoever wanted them. "We're up for requests now," he said, uncapping his own bottle and gulping it down. "Jackin' good job, ladies," he said--then added evilly, "you too, Terra an' Yaya."
Then he took a deep breath, let it out, and straightened. "We ready for this?"

Very reluctantly Seiji had released his date, though not before he'd stolen another thorough kiss from the ghoul.
Back on stage he situated himself behind his drums, grabbed a pair of sticks from the jar on the ground beside his stool, and waited for Terra to start them off. It really had been a good idea to invite the ghouls to help them out, it was really giving them a more diverse range of songs to play.
As the song ended, Seiji grinned at Yaya and Terra, mouth opening to tell them they did a great job, before snapping shut as he tuned narrowed eyes on Roch. Snorting, he tossed another drumstick at the reaper's head.

"Oh? Will you not be joining us?" Na'ima watched Mmur wander off. Well, he would just owe her a dance. Once Mmur was gone she turned back to Jing with a smile, offering him her hand. "Come, I will teach you--"
"BORROWING!"
The Famine mare barely had a chance to react before her bony arm was grabbed and she was dragged off, actually stumbling on her own dress in her surprise and attempt to catch her balance until she was dragged under a table. When under the table she sat and just stared at her 'attacker', her expression unreadable. It was hard to surprise Na'ima, she took things so coolly, so for her to not be sure how to react was quite rare.
"What.." Na'ima practically hissed as Hel came up against her side, tucking herself more comfortably under the table and fixing her headdress. Rude child. Salbei would probably be hearing her complain about this later.
Sorry, Salbei.
"...Oh." She relaxed and actually chuckled, shaking her head and rolling her eyes. This again. "I told you, a love potion that does what you want is impossible. A truth serum is the closest you could come, but where is the fun in forcing the truth out of someone? Besides, it is hard to make and I do not have any of the ingredients with me." Na'ima moved to crawl out from under the table. "Now if you will kindly excuse me, I was about to dance with a lovely Conquest stallion."
Na'ima thought she was in the clear.

Nahm caught a bottle out of the air, adjusted his scarf, raised an eyebrow at Roch for his comment, and ate the bottle in one crinkling bite. Then he grinned at his friend, sharply, and turned to Yaya. "That was lovely," he complimented her.
Roch ducked--he'd caught on by now, and grinned shamelessly at Seiji. "I was kidding!" he said with a laugh. Then he stretched his arms over his head and headed for his mic again.
"Boils and Ghouls, we're going to accept requests for the next three songs--but be warned, if we don't know it, we will abso-jackin'-lutely fake it."
Rosy chuckles as she moves up tot he stage, to request a song. She actually thought they needed more of the ghouls singing at this point, plus it would be an awesome song to play at the moment.
She grabbed the horsewoman’s boney wrist again to keep her there. “Nanners!” She cried, to get her attention again. “What if I went and collected the ingredients for you?”
Nevermind what else Na’ima said, that wasn’t important to her.

Roch blinked, then grinned and looked at the ghouls. "Think y'could stick around for this one?" he asked them.
"Si, I don't see why not?" Terra said, heading for Roch's mic. "We can share a mic, no, Yaya?" she offered the ghoul.

It had occurred to Leo, slightly too late, that it might actually have been a good idea to practice this 'wearing high heels'-thing a bit before attending prom in a fancy new pair. As it was, the time for going back to change boots had passed and she figured the only thing left to do was go on. Or, well. Stagger on, as it happened.
Slightly distracted by her woes, it took the Mare a bit of searching in the main tent to locate her date - but locate him she did. Cutting holes in the tent? Well, it was a nice tent, so... There was some trepidation in the way she approached him; that, or she was just having a hard time keeping her balance on these heels. "Hey, Zero?" It came out as a question. It wasn't meant as a question, but somewhere between her brain and her mouth, a question mark happened.
"Ah!" Lottie squeaked, not even explaining why she was suddenly under the table and right behind the pair.
"What's this all about? Hel? What is going on? Ingredients? Is this a baking seminar? OH MY JACK are we tainting the goodies??"

Ugh.
Na'ima was wishing for her face veil right now as she gave the ghoul a strained smile. "Na'ima," she corrected gently as she tugged her wrist free. She sat on the floor again. Honestly, it was the same number of syllables! It wasn't a hard name! A second young ghoul appeared and Na'ima found herself trapped under the table between two little ones.
Oh no...this was not good.
She just stared at Hel when she offered to collect what was needed.
Na'ima laughed. She laughed for a very long time.
"You're serious about this!" She thought she could collect these things? Ah ha! This was wonderful! Na'ima grinned. "I do not offer my services for free, child."
Tainting the goodies...tempting. She gave the new visitor a warm smile. "I think I like you."
