It's Swing Time~
It didn't take a rocket scientist to figure out Elisha's motivation for organizing - or, honestly, delegating the organization of - a semi-formal dance party. Lucinda had suggested a ball, with stars in her eyes. She probably had already picked out ballgowns and themes in her head when Elisha had nixed the thing and - in a moment of desperation, with the memory of the swing-themed Fox wedding still in his head - suggest a Spring Swing, instead.
Everyone had run with it, and Elisha was pleased to say it had come out well. He was even more pleased to say that he didn't have to wear a suit, even if he stepped out into the lantern-lit gardens in everything but the tie. He paused near the raised dais provided for dancing and gave the small band the signal to start up the music before he attempted to fade back in the crowd. Not that that ever worked.
"Let the games begin," he murmured to no one in particular as he picked up a glass of champagne off a tray.
Note: Open to everyone and their brother; tag around, have fun!

"Then you'll have to come out more, yeah? Castle'sre pretty full of people, you know, and there's always something happening in Town." Even if it was pretty low-key, there was still something.

"Well...I can't really take credit for the idea of the theme, but I did kind of run with it so I'm glad you like it, Greylan. Thank you."
The only problem with swing dancing is that many of the steps make it rather difficult to converse well, but she won't mind sticking to something a bit more basic, if only to catch her breath from all the rest of the dancing she's been doing.
