+ Now the Jingle Hop has begun [OPEN] +

Who: Everyone [OPEN]
Where The Ballroom
When: December 18th, 6PM-midnight (oocly however long you want to keep logging)
Rating: Well gosh, that really depends on you folks and how you behave, doesn’t it? I’m going to tentatively guess PG-13 though.
Summary: The mansion's decided to throw you all a party out of the goodness of its heart. You know, if it has one. This is the open log for the Jingle Bell Rock portion of the event!
the Story:

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowing and blowing up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancing and prancing in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air.

What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go gliding in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jingling feet
That's the jingle bell,
That's the jingle bell,
That's the jingle bell rock.


The ballroom is decorated extravagantly for the occasion, with all of the same sorts garland and holly and lights covering the rest of the mansion, at the moment. There is another tree at the far side of the room as well, though not nearly the size of the one in the front hall, decorated in a very classy white. From the ceiling, fake snow is falling from somewhere that can’t quite be seen, but it does not seem to gather on the floor more than a flake or two.

There are tables with chairs to one side, near a table filled with delicious food and beverages of all kinds, from wine to wassail to eggnog and more. The rest of the space is reserved for dancing.

We could tell you that the mansion is going to force you to dance forever and ever or something, perhaps until your feet fall off, but we won’t. Gosh, you’re all so suspicious. I mean really. The party-goers may wonder at first, some entering very suspicious of the mansion’s intentions, but it will quickly become apparent that for once…for once, it doesn’t seem to be a trap.

So giddy-up, jingle horse, pick up your feet and jingle around the clock. You can even go mix and mingle in the jingling feet. That’s the Jingle Bell Rock!

"What is it you do in your world?"

"Do enlighten us as to what that is."

Now he looks really interested.

"Such a notable profession. Are you powerful then?"

"Eva is the throne of the soul." She gets an odd, faraway look as she says this.

"It seems you've said something like this to us before. Howver, you clearly have merit outside of this."

[identity profile] gotyourhair.livejournal.com 2010-12-19 09:27 pm (UTC)(link)
"No merit at all? Now you sound like another young lady of our acquaintance."

She looks at him neutrally.

"I'm me."

[identity profile] gotyourhair.livejournal.com 2010-12-19 09:37 pm (UTC)(link)
He touches her hair in an overly familiar way. "Is that supposed to explain your merit, or are you saying that you object to being compared to another?"

[identity profile] second-first.livejournal.com 2010-12-19 09:43 pm (UTC)(link)
She's unperturbed by the touch, her expression as unchanging as a doll's.

"There is no comparison."

"Ahh, many people have traits in common. Even if they are nothing alike. So most people will remind others of a few other people."

She continues to look at him without responding for a moment, then nods to him and turns to go.

[identity profile] gotyourhair.livejournal.com 2010-12-19 10:13 pm (UTC)(link)
"That isn't to say that your worth to us is dependent on these comparisons however. You have that on your own."

[identity profile] second-first.livejournal.com 2010-12-19 10:15 pm (UTC)(link)
She pauses to acknowledge that she heard him, but doesn't turn back. "Yes."

[identity profile] gotyourhair.livejournal.com 2010-12-19 10:23 pm (UTC)(link)
He smirks, but says nothing else.

She goes on her way.
