Welcome to Gaia! ::

That wasn't as hard, as Eisheth predicted. Actualy, that was pretty easy: she was just swaying in the rhythm; first, she cared about not stepping on Mei's feet, but very soon realized that's not something to be preoccupied with. She let the ghoul lead, and simply enjoyed the dance till the end of the song.

On Famine, they didn't have many dances, but the alchemist realized now why dance is so important in Halloween culture. It was almost like a battle, but bloodless: you move and move, and your Fear grows solid, you feel active and empowered, it was probably the easiest way to relax and get energized at the same time.

"And interesting experience", she concluded, as the the song finished playing. "And you surely do it, like you were dancing all you life", she addressed Mei: the ghoul seemed to really enjoy it.

Yin would find plenty of time to be sneaky with his secret food re-distribution, as Alex was finding it rather hard to not look around at all of the..well, chaos, really. It seemed that as more students and horsemen arrived, the crazier things were getting. Arguments, shouting, kissing on the dance floor (he quickly averted his gaze from this) and...boils in dresses throwing glitter bombs about. Alexander made a mental note to stay as far away from JackB (because who else would that be, with those colors and that particular mask?) as possible. He'd had enough bad experiences with glitter, and it did not wash off of his partially rotting skin very well.

As Mei took off, he gave her a small wave, telling himself that he would have to try and catch up with her later, before he turned his attention back towards his plate of food. Oh, and back to Yin too, of course. He was just as important as food, and that was saying a lot, coming from Alex.

"Really? I mean, great!" He was obviously surprised, yet pleased, that Yin had agreed to dance with him once he had finished his food. Which meant that he should probably polish off what was on his plate as quickly as possible, before Yin could change his mind. Well, that was easier said then done when one was being very careful not to make a mess of themselves. The zomboil continued to munch on his food slowly, turning away from the table and back to the room at large so that he could be further entertained by all of the things that were going on. He'd have to worry about how to actually show Yin how to dance later.

"So...where did you get a suit from, anyways?" He was asking more out of curiosity then anything, and it was actually surprising that he hadn't asked sooner. Alex usually wanted to know everything that was going on, which was difficult considering he had a boilfriend who only ever told him what he thought Alex needed to know and nothing more. Still, he was at least getting used to it, and he was trying.

“Sounds good, friend.” The reaper replied. She followed the undead ghoul out onto the floor, and was a bit disgruntled at getting slotted the ‘ghoul’ roll for the dance…but Sammy did ask first…so she had to give that to her. “I suppose I shall let you have the honor.” Hel returned, and then was put into a small spin already. She ended up chuckling a bit.

“I meant to say earlier as well, you look very charming tonight, Sammy.” So not used to seeing the ghoul all dressed up like well…a ghoul.

She didn't hit as hard as Danny did. That was the first thing through his mind--right after acknowledging that the face slap had been more about his pride than the pain--he'd dissipated too many times to be touchy about pain. But a hit in the shoulder? Eh, no biggie.

"I would do that," he said with a crooked grin, "but it would be disrespectful to the guys that already did it for us, y'know? See those tables?" he asked as he started leading her towards them. "They're covered with food made by some of the best cooks in the school. So we just take one of the plates and pick what we want from all of it," he explained happily. In fact, by the look on his face, this was the best part about prom EVER.

Siobhan could.. sort of dance. She could shimmy, wiggle and jive. She would win no awards, that was for certain. "I do not judge! Let us dance, even if we look horribly ridiculous! I shall lead." The banshee said with a firm nod. The song playing seemed to be a slow one, but she didn't mind.

The banshee puffed out her chest, and the bowed like a boil. "Shall we, m'lady?"

"Yeah... that would be bad.." Jericho said nervously. No he had no plans of wandering to the corners, just in case they had been charmed again.

When Shehk suddenly tensed, the dragon did as well. What was going on? He thought there might have been something dangerous around. A quick scan of the floor didn't really do him much good, but something was causing the Pricolici distress. It wasn't until she spoke again, that he had somewhat of an idea why she was like this.

"Wait. Nuk? He's here? Where?" the dragon asked while trying to spot the skinwalker. It had been ages since he last spotted the guy.

Amrita actually glared up at Sheridan at his comment about the Hunters. However, it was brief and quickly smoothed away, relaxing into a sweet smile. "Aww, now, I know you don't mean that. Getting mad at scarelings like that one just means you're letting them win." Her voice had smoothed out, still trying to diffuse it in the only way she knew how. "Besides, there's always a chance to really get him back in the gym!" The Patchwork had leaned in, her hands poised as if telling a secret. Did she just...suggest a battle later? She did! Proud of herself, the ghoul leaned back, back to smiling.

"But it's very nice to meet you, Sheridan!" She shook his hand awkwardly, and then released it to take a step back, looking at the pair as, well, a pair. He had his arm around her, he looked at her softly...so then, they were a couple? It made sense in her little undead head.

"You two look very nice together! Why not go dance some?" The ghoul smiled encouragingly, gesturing almost excitedly to the dance floor. "I've gotta go find someone so...I'll leave you to it!" Christof, for being a lumpy, grumpy sourpuss, was quite evasive she found. So far he had yet to turn up, but she was confident that she'd find him eventually. As she turned from the pair she raised a hand to wave at them, still beaming happily. "Thanks for getting my mask! I hope you have fun!"

And then she was gone, mingling into the crowd.
