Masquerade Mingle

[thespaceopera]

[The night has finally come--the Gravity Rush is nearly upon us! What normally serves as a large performance hall has been gutted, emptied of its boring furniture and rigged up into a fantastical mismatch of technology and old culture. No matter where you go tonight, you're encouraged to move around, dance, play games, whatever helps you sleep in late tomorrow morning.

If you aren't one for scurrying around a ballroom all night, there's always plenty of people-watching to do. After all, so many people are wearing extravagant costumes and elaborate masks. How can you even tell who is who? Get lost in a crowd of sequins, chatter with a sun and a moon, or try to beat the guy in the monster-mask at a game of cards. Meet your friends or make some new ones--this masquerade party has begun!]

[Rogue, please.]

Yes.

[Okay, it's easier to answer in a yes/no format. She could probably do multiple choice too, but fill in the blank is rough! He's also her friend, gawd!]

And thanks. Yours is not exactly what I was expecting. [Because without knowing more she expects what her Rogue might do and she'd probably want something more Charles-friendly.] But it's cool. Did Loki come?

[winn]

[ he nods his own appreciation for the compliment. ] Thanks -

[ well that very sure yes is making him feel a little better, at least, so thanks rogue! ]

Who's Loki?

[touchofrogue]

[Rogue smirks a little at that compliment - she knew her dress was crazy outrageous, and she loved it.] Yeah, that's right - ya missed my Goth phase.

[She turns back to Winn at that question.] Loki's my boyfriend. He's around here somewhere. Dancin'.

[She addresses both of them:] He loves dancing.

[Her? Not so much.]

[passingthrough]

Oh no, and there aren't any pictures here. That's unfair.

[Smiling. Look at her be chill again.] You know why he loves dancing? It's because dancing is the best. Smart guy.

[winn]

[ oh, a simple introduction. that's the dream, right there! ]

You're less enthusiastic?

[ he feels that. he likes dancing - but kitty loves dancing. must be what a person who enjoys the internet feels like around him. ]

[touchofrogue]

Let's just say I don't do well in crowds. [Dryly: The understatement of the year. She has a loooot less to worry about tonight, but traumatic memories are traumatic memories.

What's the harm in one dance?

Plenty.

She waves a hand to indicate the room around them.] But I do enjoy a show.

[And the costumes provide it in spades.]

[passingthrough]

[It's okay, Winn. Kitty might just clue you in later since she didn't do any prep before she brought her over to prove she has female friends too meet her friend.]

Have there been ridiculous things going on that are fun for the watching? I mean, other than whatever I've been doing tonight of course.

[winn]

[ boy does he understand that sentiment - before hank and cisco it really felt like he was surrounding himself with nothing but women.

making dresses didn't help his case any. ]

Well there's always what I've been doing -

[ he hasn't really been bringing his ridiculous game tonight, but it seemed to have followed him into this conversation - ]
