Kitty and Illyana decide to make the most of the party

( We should have fun. I should stop freaking out. Right? Right. )

om_trickshot

Illyana gets Irvine to ask her to dance, twice, and also consider taking Dance next semester. Flirting and fun and total non-seriousness abounds (which means Irvine is frequently not as smooth as he thinks he is).

( Gorgeous Mutant Saves the World? Illyana the Zombie Slayer? How to Swing a Machete in a Skirt? )

om_nightcrawler

( Have you had a good time tonight? )

( Dancing in generally more fun to do than watching in my opinion. )

om_ardere

Backdated to July 19th. Cersei visits Lucrezia, arriving for a week long vacation at Chez Borgia. Featuring one Cesare Borgia! (Thank you, Katey for NPCing!)

( I couldn't decide whether you'd be dying for some time in the city, or for peace and quiet, so I've left our calendars wide open. I could stand a bit of shopping and a show, myself, but I leave it totally up to you, as my guest. )

om_magik

Cersei and Illyana meet and "discuss" powers, fashion, and transportation.

( Very. I would not want to accidentally jostle or startle someone with, say, combustive powers. )

om_cherrybomb

( Lucy, you got some 'splainin' to do! )

om_magik

River decides to try and act "normal", and picks an unlikely partner!

( A merry romp? )

om_magik

Jeanne-Marie takes drunken Illyana under her wing, and prevents an ill-advised visit to juvie.

( He's kind of the anti-get-in-trouble type, y'know? Which should be really boring...but he's not. )

om_pyro

John finally sucks it up and approaches Bigby after leaving him that letter. Bigby is, uh, pleased to see him. Making out finally ensues.

( Why did you leave it for me? )

om_superboy

At the Masque, Conner and Irvine do some powers work involving makeshift slingshots, cupcakes, and flight. Totally legit.

om_grimm

Pietro spots Bigby at the party and decides to say hello.

( Sometimes it’s worth the mess. )

om_chroma

( Anyhow, not to shit all over this precious Hallmark moment, but we've got a party to get to. )

Cersei arrives at the party and is immediately found by Jamie.

( You look beautiful, if you don't mind me saying. )

om_hawkeye

om_talon

Laura catches Midnighter watching Paul and they speak about caring about others, and Inu-yasha.

( Is there something wrong with Apollo? )

om_kobalos

Harry's heard plenty about Betsy Braddock, so he takes the opportunity to meet her in person. Betsy's heard plenty about him too, as it turns out. She doesn't hold it against him. Much.

( Your reputation proceeds you, but perhaps not the reputation you intended. )

om_hawkeye

Illyana gets Clint to pretend to dance, and then they strike a deal.

( Well you know where to find me, when you want to learn. )

om_touchstone

River and Simon share a dance, and they navigate being normal siblings the way they always do.

( You should stop glaring at the boys, though. )

om_aurora

Jeanne-Marie and Lydia take turns talking Simon onto the dance floor, discussing life plans, and missing Jean-Paul.

( I...think that's the second time I've been called 'lovely' tonight. )

om_quicksilver

Laura hops down to talk to Pietro when he goes looking for her at the Masque. And then, a miracle occurs. (Okay not really but he's super happy.)

( Yes. I will dance with you. )

om_ardere

The snarkfest between Cersei and Sirius continues at the Masquerade party.

( There is a difference between being worth my attention and being just plain rude. )

om_shadowcat

Kitty and Peter start out dancing and move on to more serious talk.

( Maybe it is a good party, but it's the last one I'll ever organize. )

om_ghost

Remus is surprised that Felix still wants to go to the Starlight dance with him, since Felix got scared by Remus-as-wolf. Felix is undeterred, leading to promises, hand-holding, and cheek-kissing. Progress!

( I'll stay away from the wolf for one night a month, if... if you don't stay away from me on the other days. Even if you think I might get scared. Okay? )

om_pyro

Johnny helps Illyana with a slight costume malfunction, and she... tolerates his attempts at dancing.

( No disappointment involved - you're definitely my hero. )

om_psylocke

Betsy visits Tony in the new abode.

( I look forward to playing house with you and your assortment of glittery or mild-mannered friends. )

Alice stops by the DJ booth

( Don't you have better thing to be doing than being one of those girls who hangs around the booth and makes eyes at the DJ? )
