+ 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!

maybe it's pickled EVERYTHING, ever think about that?

"...Yyyeah. Kind of." J's never really had to explain cameras before, since he comes from film school, and everyone has at least a starter course in cameras there. "Except this one doesn't transmit to anything. It saves everything on an SD card and then I transfer it for later."

/mind blown /and then pickled

Oh my God, you couldn't have lost him any more thoroughly if you'd blindfolded him in a labrynth. Esdie cards and tranferring cameras to mysterious things and whaaaaat.

He considers asking for a deeper explanation, then decides that he's too drunk to absorb it.

"I've read a little of that sort of thing." But the books covered two centuries' worth of technology, and focused on communication rather than recording. He could tell you what a webcam is, given a little time to remember, but he's not so up to scratch on GoPro wearable HD camcorders.

delicious~!

"Oh yeah?" he says, raising an eyebrow. "This is a pretty interesting little thing. I like it, but it doesn't record at night very well." Because he needs it to.... wait, because he actually does need it to. "The ones with really good nightvision are usually tape-cameras, and I stopped using those a while ago."

Daniel's pretty much stumbling alongside the conversation by drawing mental parallels with the mansion's communicators. Unfortunately he didn't understand the bit about saving to SD cards and has therefore already forgotten it.

"...Where's it sending the image?"

"Right now?" J looks down at his hand, like it'll tell him, even though he knows the answer. "It's not transmitting to anyone right now, but if it's near my computer it'll update there."
