Oh thank God, Gnat! Oh dear God, what was she wearing? The petite Sun had spotted her friend and made a beeline for the other girl, but had slowed as she'd gotten near, lavender eyes wide. There was only one thing she could say really, as she took in the entire package. "Dayum." Peyton didn't goo for girls, but seriously. Dayum.

"Nice pants," Gnat shot back. "You ain't my mom, she added."
Was it always this cold in here? She huddled self consciously. She imagined she could feel the damn skirt creeping up her thighs - maybe she should sit, but was it long enough?
She was asking the hard questions.

"I would be more 'n happy, ma'am," Wash growled, sliding his arms down to the small of her back and pulling her close, "t' let you dress or undress me however you like." He grinned, and there was a whole lot of naughty mixed in with the nice.
"After we figure out why they got us all trussed up like we was in th' Phantom of th' Opera," he added with a sigh.

"I forgot to pack my stripper dress," Tuck grunted, eyeing Peyton. He leaned in to Gnat, "I think she's checkin' you out."

He had almost decided not to go.
<< Will you regret if you don't? >> Jinhai asked, as Gale stood in front of his mirror, absently tying and untying the thin black tie he was knotting around his neck.
Probably. I don't usually miss missions, if ever.
<< So go. It's an executive meeting, after all. You could learn something. >>
Then I guess I'm going, thought Gale with a sigh, and finished tying his tie.
When he got to Room 100, a few moments before the allotted time, it was to discover that a good chunk of people were already there. He could see Dakota across the way, standing with Molly; Jason, Sasha (and a vaguely familiar hunter he assumed was her boyfriend, from how close they were standing). And -
- Gale's stomach turned over. Stormy stood across the room with a girl he didn't know, her hair swept up in an elegant ponytail across her shoulder. The dress she wore was flattering and beautiful, and Gale felt his chest tighten a little.
He swallowed hard, forcing down whatever emotions he wasn't sure he was feeling, turning swiftly away. Peyton was near the front, looking irritated, and Gale, tugging absently on his dark grey vest, smoothing a hand over his coat, stepped up beside her.
"Hey," he said. "You look a little less than pleased to be here."
He gave a nod to the other girl she was standing with, sliding his hands into the pockets of his black slacks.

Nevada wouldn't lie. Stormy would be the cutest girl there. "There is a Tuck..." She smiled at Stormy, unsure of her own standing with Tuck in public. She was sure that some people knew of what went down...but she wasn't sure how to approach the other hunter. And since the trip to Hawaii, he'd been pretty busy.
Her eyes were drawn to gnat's dress and lime green shoes and sighed happily. The girl will forever be the best. Well except Stormy. Who looked absolutely darling. She turned over, bringing her hand up to brush a piece of hair from the girl's face.
"Chin up Princess. You're too cute to be nervous. Would you like to go talk to Tuck?" She gently maneuvered the girl to the twins. "Excuse me Tuck, Gnat. You both look...interesting."

"You're terrible," she whispered in the tone of voice that spoke of how much Wash delighted her.
Sasha pressed another kiss to the corner of Wash's lips before pulling away. She did maintain contact, and promptly laced her fingers through his.
"I doubt it's going to be anything fun or entertaining," Sasha replied dryly, glancing around the room, "and will probably end in humiliation or giant breasts, knowing this place."

Crispin slipped in, feeling a bit self-conscious - here he was, first major actually planned mission, and he still wasn't really sure what he was doing. He still felt like he was doing noodle-arms with Shaiming more often than not, but... he had to at least try. This was why he was here, after all. Why he'd made the decision to go in the first place, and why they'd deemed him worthy and woken him up. Why Shaiming had chosen him.
He tried to stay in the background, though. For right now. Gosh, there were a lot of them when they all got crammed in a single room.

"Yeah, little bit. I mean come on. Dayum." She gestured at Gnat, then turned to Tuck, waving her hand at him in limp sorry of way. "Not much to be admiring in this direction. Least not clothing wrist."
She knew he was cut, that wasn't the point here.
"You could have tried, just a little bit. Look at Gale, he's ask dapper and junk." She nodded at the other blonde, offering him an odd smile. No, she wasn't thrilled to be standing there in a dress. "Is it that obvious?"

Gnat rolled her eyes at Tuck, but had a grin for Peyton.
"Yeah, I uh. Didn't really pack for this s**t." Oh well. If she was going to have to be a stripper for the night, she might as well own it. She cocked her hip to the side and put her hands on her waist.
"Y'look nice though." And she did - the creamy color of the dress really set off her tanned skin, and she gave the other woman an appreciate wolf whistle.
"We got some hot s**t over here, guys," she called teasingly.

"Well," Tuck bowed, looking ...pretty much like he did any other damn day of the week, "I wasn't under the impression that we gonna have these fancy dress up occasions, so I didn't bring nothin' to wear."
He grinned down at Stormy. She looked so adorable his teeth ached. And then, Nevada, well.
Tuck's smile grew a little wicked. Just a little.
"You both look real nice."

Molly just giggled softly, and straightened out the troublesome tie before she clasped her hands over her stomach. Her cheeks tinted red at the compliment. “Th-thank you!” She replied. “I’m very flattered, um, you look dashing as always…um…what’s that expression? Dressed to…lady kill? Oh but um…I’m sure you might kill some guys too!” Because Molly had a very open mind, okay. She didn’t judge. Upon seeing some other Hunters roll in, Molly caught sight of Gale across the room and waved at him enthusiastically, beaming brightly.

"Ahah . . ." It was dress up Ken and Barbie time in a place that was normally very militaristic and they probably would have to fight with their weapons anyway, of course she was nervous. She made a small noise as Nevada doted on her. "Not unless he's busy," she mumbled, scanning around as more people moved into the room. There was Miss Sasha with another Hunter, that Sun girl she'd seen at Tuck's orientation meeting--
Then she spotted Gale and quickly looked away, because if she didn't look at him then clearly he couldn't look at her, right? Nonononono. Bad timing, bad timing, maybe she should just leave before--
"Tuuuuuck~ You look nice too, don't worry," she told him with a not so confident smile, even if she was being earnest. "The point is you're comfortable and can move around."
Clearly Gnat could.

There were so many people here.
Dorian had only come because it was a mandatory get together, he truly couldn't have been arsed if he knew that it was some kind of prom - hell he wasn't sure what that was at first. He had sort of missed his own in school - when he got the news that he had graduated he had pretty much bounced at first chance.
It didn't help that everyone was speaking English around him and it just sounded like white noise. So he just kept to a wall, eyes wide and almost glazing over from his je-ne-comprend-pas reaction to everything, wearing a (potentially borrowed) overcoat, grey gloves and his normal slightly dressed up pants.
It was the best he could do.

"At least humiliation an' breasts is safe," Wash replied, grinning. He squeezed her hand gently.
"C'mon, let's go an' mingle."
