+ 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!

Though he looks less scruffy than normal with his hair actually combed and a suit on, the mansion did let Nagi get away with keeping his scarf around his neck. Prison collars don't exactly go at black tie events.

He smiles at Lamb and nods in greeting.

"Ah, Owl. Good evening."

She returns the smile.

"Are you enjoying yourself?"

"It has been some time since my last dance as well."

In Rapture, at least. Come to think of it...

"Though I did attend a wedding here not too long ago..."

"I would occasionally be invited to weddings at home, but that was quite some time ago."

She takes a quick glance around the room.

"Seeing such a celebration here was a pleasant change of pace. Perhaps there will be another opportunity for you as well."

"" He chuckles, which is always an odd sound. ""

She surveys the crowd a little more.

"I wonder how many are here voluntarily..."

"" If the people in the mansion were social enough to come voluntarily, he probably would know who more of them were.

"Still, it is quite nice to see them all in one place."

She has to agree with Owl there. "I forget how many people the mansion is capable of housing."

"" Nagi puts his hands in his pockets. ""

"What would that be?"

Ominous implications? She's got a lovely bunch of them and wonders which one Owl picked.

"" Which says something about Wonderland's power.

Oh. That. She already saw the infinity as a given and assumed that a theory about it would follow.

A nod of understanding.

"That does seem to be the case. And yet, unless I'm entirely mistaken, the number of people residing here seems far below that. I wonder if the population was larger at some point."

She pauses.

"Or will be."
