It's Swing Time~

[cipherspeak]

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!

Following Greylan's glance, Theo had to agree. "Almost, it looks like. But then it's been a while since we've had a structured shindig like this." Granted, there'd been the bonfire and dance down in Town, but that had been spur-of-the-moment, not choreographed like this.

"It's nice to sit back, relax, and not worry about tomorrow once in a wnile."

"That's true." He certainly hadn't heard of one for a while anyways. Grey makes a soft sound of agreement next. "It is. Its a great atmosphere. I really think everyone needed this."

Theo nodded agreement. "Yep. Although most of us'll probably be getting off to a slow start in the morning." Which wasn't necessarily a bad thing, but something to keep in mind.
