Summary: New Year's Eve Party
The Story:

[ Previously in the month all residents received an invitation to a formal event: a black tie affair to ring in the New Year. The ballroom and adjacent areas are decked out for the party starting at eight o'clock sharp, meticulously planned and executed, glittering décor to match the no doubt glittering attire as music pours into the halls from the dance floor.

Bars flank each side, service for all manner of alcohol unless a minor requests something, and the primary setting stage features an enormous clock for the countdown. ]




[ Where will you be when the clock strikes midnight? ]

Comments

[mucked]

What possible quality -- what possible property -- would you tolerate in yourself simply so you might deprive your mirror of that same attribute?

[ to take on heartlessness in order to give his mirror more heart. to take on cruelty in himself as that might somehow soften his reflection. when, from where peggy's standing, effectiveness is not the polarizing trait between the pair of them. ]

[hypoxic]

Whatever it takes. If -- there's anything that can be done to mitigate a consistant threat, shouldn't we be willing to make those calls?

[mucked]

-- And risk, what? Transmogrifying yourself into the threat instead?

[ no matter, it's all a very metaphysical conversation -- and one that peggy clearly doesn't care for, given the crinkle in her nose. ]

You're good as you are, Agent Fitz. [ ... ] One only needs to meet your mirror once to see who got the better end of that reflection.

[hypoxic]

Not instead, but -- if there was a middle ground. If. [There's always another option.]

It's probably telling that you're so comfortable. Your mirror was quite anxious when I saw her.

[mucked]

[ well. that makes two. mister queen talked about seeing her mirror crying at the last formal occasion held here in wonderland. and here's fitz, describing the creature as an anxious one.

she hides her reaction rather better than he did. and with good reason, considering it sounds as though peggy's mirror poses far less of an obvious threat than his. it's easier not to get swept up in panic.

her curiosity takes a nauseating twist, however. ]

Anxious about what? [ the what doesn't matter, does it? it's more about measuring just how much of an interaction the pair had. ]
