Layla watched JD slink back across the ballroom floor and her heart went out to him and how his face fell. Perhaps it wouldn't be so bad if she were to speak with her mother about allowing him to perform a song. A more 'youth goreiented dance number or something like that?
Layla then paused to glance up at her escort and smiled."You are looking quite charming, Gryff. And may I say how well you held up under Mother's grimterview? One of the only boos to ever do so."

After bowing to Layla's mother and kissing both her hand and her daughter's, Harry made some small talk with the queen. His eye drifted to Gryff who stood on the dais as well.
"My father does not know what he is missing, My Lady. The ball is so fangtastic that even the most calculatingly packaged non-conformists flock here to be seen. Thank you again for the invitation to my father's court."
With a slight smile, Harry bowed again before joining his date and Tori.
"Hello, Tori, I'd greet in a much groovier way but I am currently undercover and representing my father's court. The things one does for family. Anyboo, I hope you forgive my uncruel behavior in your greenhouse. I hope we can become friends."
Harry glanced up.
"Purple?"

Essi took meticulous notes which she used her cellular device to let Akito know all. He would be here later. She warned him not to make a dangerous entrance. He sent a winky face?!
Carefully tucking in her phone back into her pouch, she skittered across the dance floor to curtsy to the Lady Lamia. " My gratitude to you and your kin!"
Layla's mother seemed pleased and was that a grin? Essi waltzed her way towards Marianna and JD. Her exchange family said to "make connections", they forgot to specify "wealthy kin and their families". Not in a greedy way, the family was 5 plus Essi's appetite.....~~~
"Evening miss and monstier (monsieur????)!" Smiled Essi.

"That would be fintastic!" She nodded, walking over to the drinks, she had some and more, she really WAS thirsty!
"I think you should DJ, no one should tell you otherwise! If they are letting one band preform then they should let you too! You should get your stuff and just get this party started. In fact all the monsters and MH student disembody would thank you for brightening the mood in these murky waters!" Mari felt like he was being bullied and she hated a bully. She pats him on the back, "Let me hit the lights since somebloody's already got the fog matching rolling in the deep." She nodded over to the far corner of the Embassy. "This is going to be Wavey!"

"Let's get this party started!" Kai opened the door of the limoscream so that everymonster else could exit. The ride had been almost TOO short to enjoy limoscream service, but that was okay...Kai didn't want to get used to that sort of crazy luxury.
One by one, Melody, Shad, Octavia and Demona exited the limoscream. Kai had only been to the Monster Embassy a couple of times (and not under the beast of circumstances), and its grandeur still managed to take his breath away.
"Wow." Just as they stepped in the door two monsters descended from the ceiling in parachutes! Was that...Rory and Peggy?! What an entrance! And here he thought a Limoscream was fancy.
"Line up over there." A large, burly troll informed the party. "First, you greet the hostess. Then you can enter. The invocation for the dance will be in twenty minutes."
Kai straightened his tie. Soon, they were standing in front of Serpia LaMia. She recognized him immediately. He was pretty distinctive looking, even from a monster point of view.
"Malakai Merha." The regal serpentine gave him an appraising look. He bowed respectfully. "It has been sssome time since you've graced the embasssssy."
"Thank you for your invitation, your majesty." Kai replied, still bowed. Serpia had some...very traditional thoughts about her daughter and who she should be friends with. But it was possible that she had lightened up on her opinions a little.
"Tell me, how issss...your art?" She asked him, with the faintest hint of a smile underneath her fangs. "I am sssstill interested in a portrait from you to fang on the wall of my ssstudy."
Well, as long as it was JUST a portrait this time! (And not a wedding) Kai smiled back.
"I might be available this summer for a commission. Layla would be a pleasure to paint."
"Oh, thisss would be...of me." Serpia smiled a bit broader this time. Kai blushed.
"Oh! Well, that would be fine, too!" He answered, not sure why his cheeks were burning under his gray fur. He bowed again and moved aside so the rest of his group could greet the hostess.
Wow...painting royalty! Summer was going to be grimteresting.

She scratched her head slightly, she wasn't sure if this was being sincere or not. Was that even an apology? Maybe this was just a trick? "I-I don't know... I guess falling out of the sky and landing in my green house, destroying all those plants and being a un-cruel boo wasn't something you'd meant to do..." she shrugged, "Every monster deserves a second chance." She gave no answer about being friends, but if he was seeing Draconia, her long time friend, they were bound to run into each other. Venus mentioned her attitude changed as well, she was only just starting to feel better. Maybe something similar happened to him."Whats that?" She looked in the direction his attention was drawn to.

Demona was the last to get out of the limo. She hoped no one noticed the flashing lights and the little crowd of paparazzi that was repeating itself.
"DEMONA IS IT TRUE YOU AND SCARY STYLES HAVE BROKE UP?!"
"DEMONA HAVE YOU HEARD SCARY STYLES NEW SONG?!"
"WERE YOU CHEATING ON HIM!?"
"HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT SCARY'S NEW SINGLE!?"
These questions were overlapping eachother and all Demona could really hear was her name repeating. She was so glad to get into the building. She heard the ending of Kai's conversation.
"Oh wow Kai you must be so lucky!"
She hugged his arm.
"So what do you want to mingle a bit?" Demona had a bit of experience when it came to balls, actually this was one of the more casual ones she's been to. Demona scanned the room there wasn't a single photographer
Unless you count Spectra.
There wasn't a bunch of big name tabloid magazines trying to give you a "glimpse into the lives of the elite"
Now was the time to actually have fun and not worry about it becoming front page news on every magazine in the country

"Ladies and gentlemansters!" The wheezing, yet surprisingly BOOMING voice that carried by the elderly hobgoblin that had greeted guests at the door, stood atop the stairs that descended to the GI-normous dance floor."May I present for the opening dance of the evening, the Princess Layla, and her escort, Gryff Stone!" The adults were the ones to begin the applause, with the boodents of Monster High, Layla's friends and guests, following suit at their hexample. Layla, on Gryff N's arm, appeared atop the stairs for but the briefest of moments before they descended down to the spacious floor that the guests now stood on the edge of.
Gryff retained his haughty air as he remained conflicted in his personal values while secretly enjoying the station he found himself in above the rest of the Monster High masses."YAY GRYFF!!!" Was heard across the ballroom which had great acoustics, and that was followed up with a hurried.. "SHH!"And the ghostly symphony started to play a classical song, befitting this level of social event, and the kids watched in awe as Gryff led Layla out onto the dance floor to begin the opening dance of the Winter Ball. What surprised the kids the most was not the fact that a ghoul who had a tail rather than legs was such an exquisite dancer, but more so thje fact the broodingest boo at school was as well as Gryff led the princess around the dance floor in a classic Waltz to... If interested, this is the songAnd one by one, the adults took their partners to the dance floor to join in, prompting the boodents....

"Oh, how absolutely uhh-mazing!" Draconia marveled with stars in her eyes as the dance floor filled with grisly ghouls of every shape and size. She even recognized a few spellebrities out there.
"The esteemed Prince will now request the pleasure of the first dance from the Lady Draconia!" Gobbledygook announced loudly, making Draconia jump a bit. "And then, all interested monsters may form a queue to fill the rest of the master's dance card."

Suddenly, everymonster was trailing out onto the dance floor. That looked liked just about the least safe place to be. All of those feet moving...skirts twirling..torsos dipping everywhere! Rory took a step back.
And that's when, just as the crowd cleared, he spotted for certain.
"Jimi Hexdrix!" Rory grabbed Peggy and pulled her back from going onto the dance floor. "Look!"
He pointed towards the lanky, purple-skinned uberfamous Warlock, who was talking to a group of other spellebrities. Rory vaguely recognized comedienne centaur Tina Hay and stalk show host Grimmy Fallon. One of the members of One Dissection may have been in the corner. But those famous faces meant nothing to Rory if Hexdrix was there.
"How did he get invited to something like this?!" He wondered frantically, remembering the end of Woestock. Heimdal sighed from Peggy's purse.
"The mainscream media thought his performance at the end of Woestock was just that...a performance! Jimi Hexdrix has been the stalk of the town ever since...he's more famous than ever!"
Rory looked at Peggy. She wasn't thinking about......Power Pegasus....was she?
Not here! Not now!

This music...
....was SO. BORING.
Atomica looked at all of the monsters out dancing on the floor. Yes, it looked like there were a lot of them and YES, they MIGHT have looked like they were having a good time, but Atomica knew better. She knew this party was in DIRE NEED of being saved from itself.
How could Layla have spent time as a member of the R.I.P. and still put together such a boring party? It was such a logic error that Atomica's processor could barely stand it."Don't worry!" Atomica stated, to nomonster in particular. "I'll save this ball from being suuuuuch a stick in the mud!""Hey!" A mud monster took offense as it slurped its way to the dance floor.
"Don't blow a mudbubble, you know what I meant!" Atomica yelled back at him as she started scanning the crowd.
Melody Nocturna - sighted!
Marceline LaGhede - sighted!
Vanissha de La Luz - not sighted.
2 out of 3 of the original members of the Rest In Peace...a 66% success rate. Not the beast, but better than nothing. Atomic made a beeline for Melody, since she was the closest.

"There's my bootiful ghoulfriend!" A smooth British accent said he wrapped his arms around her waist
"Oi, do me a favor, take a picture of me and my ghoul."
Demona pulled away "What are you doing here?"
"Supporting my ghoulfriend." He kissed her cheek.
"Well" Demona pulled away...AGAIN "tell me when you find her"
"Oi! We had a deal." He said in a hushed tone "you're the one who signed the contract."
"But- everyone knows we 'broke up' " she added air quotes for emphasis on the fact they were never together.
"Can't brake up if we were never together." He stated without missing a beat.
"Wha- that doesn't even make sense!" She cried as she was dragged off to the dance floor

"Demona, you wanna-" Kai turned to his date to ask her for the first dance, to find that she was being swept onto the dance floor by a floppy-haired British vampire. Kai squinted a little bit.
That dude looked familiar. Was that-"OH MY GHOUUUUUL!" Octavia squealed, all of her tentacles flailing. "Demona's dancing with SCARY STYLES! KAI, THAT IS SCARY STYLES!" "Scary St-" Kai repeated, confused."FROM ONE DISSECTION!!!!!" Octavia shook Kai. "Don't you listen to their boosic?! 'You Don't Know You're Bootiful!' That's one of their songs!" Kai shuddered a little bit, remembering that song being on a loop in the muzak playing over the PA at the Arrgght House for his after-school job. That wasn't really his brand of music. His tastes were (naturally), super-eclectic.
Still, this was really weird."So, what is a famous boo band guy doing grabbing my ghoul-I mean, grabbing Demona?" Kai wondered out loud. Octavia shoved her iCoffin into his hands."Because of THIS!" It was SKREE-MZ, one of the gossi apps that Octavia loved but Kai had no interest in. It was a headline from two weeks ago."SCAREMONA NO MORE!" It read. Kai scrolled down.Quote: SCAREMONA NO MOREFangghouls of One Dissection had wild reactions today as it was revealed over Skitter that supermodel Demona and Scary Styles had called it quits as a couple. Citing that they were 'groaning apart,' the two changed their statuses on Fiercebook back to single. Hundreds of preteen ghouls 'liked' the status on Scary's page...
But he was so....bleah! Pre-fabricated! Even now, as he was dancing with Demona on the dance floor it looked like something he'd rehearsed a million times. There had to be some sort of mistake..."Do you think she can get me Scary's clawtograph?" Octavia asked, hugging the picture on her iCoffin.

Atomica Servo Vanissha de La Luz - not sighted."Not sighted" was one of her greatest tricks, and very handy, after a very public, and humiliating break up with JD. Someone who seemed to be around a lot more, and Vanissha trying to avoid him, in her saddened state 'appeared' less. After a few months she started to regain her confidence back. Now she had another problem. "Aww!! My Shoes!!" A whine could be heard from the ghouls power room (a place she frequented because this invisible-ghoul was constantly applying make up on) and a shout, "No Quicksliver! Come back!" Vani's dress flowed around her like a lovely, light cloud, her feet made little sound as they patted across the floor and after her quick, tiny, and troublesum puppy! He wasn't the best behaved but she would never use the words 'Bad Direwolf' to him nor send him to the much needed obedience school. "Bark!" Quicksilver was startled by all the dancing feet and dashed too quickly home, for Vani to catch up. Just as he darted across the dance floor, Vani bumped her head, trying to scoop up her pet, against Atomica's steal plated booty! "Owch!" She rubs her head, giving a long sigh, "Grreat... My date just ran off with my shoes... So how's your night been?" That last part had an air of optimism.
