A formal dance.

[pendragon]

WHO: Everyone!
WHERE: The Atrium, Haven's Hub.
WHEN: Today! The dance will go on from the late afternoon until the early hours of the morning.
WHAT: Have your top hat and cane? This is a formal ball. The origination is a drunken Vandal and battle-worn Saber.
WARNINGS: Could be anything from bar fights to drunken swearing to people tripping over their own feet or people making out in a corner.

Welcome to the dance!      The Atrium will have its doors open in the late evening. For the first two hours, Vandal and Drift will be acting as receptionist and bouncer. After that, the doors close. At the reception desk, you will be required to sign your name and also hand over any weapons that you are carrying. (Within the building there is an inhibitor placed. No one will be able to use any weaponry on their person.)      The Atrium is decorated in royal purple and black, with accents of white and pearl. The decorations are standard fair for a ball. There's hanging draperies, table clothes, and colored lighting. Towards the outside of the circular Atrium, everyone will be under a glowing white light. Towards the middle of the dance floor, there is a much softer lavender that illuminates the immediate area.      Vandal and Saber organized and planned, and then helped with decorations. They will also be over seeing the event throughout the entire night. Vandal will be handling the reception desk and registration. We have Frenzy as our DJ in the Atrium, and Miko will be playing electric guitar for those who decide to visit the bar. Saber, Ironhide, and McCrane will be acting as security. They would be the best to contact should you have any.. safety concerns. Our bouncer, Drift, will be "on call" for security once his primary assignment is done. Kay organized and lead the decorating, and Ravage and McCrane helped with placing them. Melan and Joe gathered needed materials. Skidaddle is the one to blame for having the supply of available hats at the doors for any Cybertronian who tries to get past the one piece of attire rule.      Feel free to post in any sub-forum area you think your character would be present in (with or without an opening post), or merely tag others. Prose or action-spam is okay (and you may want to include this in your initial posts if you want others to tag you). Bonus: include links to garments your character may be wearing. This is entirely up to you! Have fun!      Make sure to add your character to the tags! (That's the registry.)

[She shrugs.]

Why not?

[Arcee takes Mirage's hand and begins walking him onto the dance floor.

PS she's the boss]

[perfavore]

[He looked at his hand as she tugged him onto the floor. This was new...usually he was the one who led the dance. Not that there's anything wrong with it--it's an extremely nice change of pace, to be honest.]

Ah, you're too kind.

[He takes her hands and puts them on his waist (making sure he doesn't place them on any spiky bits) and putting his own hands on her shoulders. If she wanted to lead, he'd at least set them up for it.]

[robotfightclub]

[She appreciates the help, especially since she's so small. Her dancing is nothing fancy, she's no dancer, just a lot of steps back and forth.]

So don't tell me you came here alone.

[perfavore]

[Mirage matches them, obviously finding nothing at all wrong with her dancing. If anything, the easier, the better. Makes conversation more enjoyable.]

I had a date.

[His eyes flick over to the silver bot...doing some kind of dance. Probably trying to pick someone up. It's interesting to say the least.]

He's very social.

[robotfightclub]

[She doesn't notice who he's referring to, but "I had a date" is all she really needed to hear.]

Some date.

[Aren't dates supposed to stick around each other? Oh well, what does she know?]

[perfavore]

[Don't worry, Arcee. You're right on the money. For the most part.]

Is not personal. As long as he stays away from Shockwave, that is all I need. He's...quite the, as humans call it, 'ladies man'. If...such thing exists for us.

[robotfightclub]

[Mirage must really like him if he's willing to make up excuses.]

If it were me, I wouldn't let that scrap fly.

[perfavore]

[It does seem pretty pathetic, when you think about it.]

Timelines are fickle, aren't they? I used to be just as flirtatious--more so than now--but events change you, no?

Events he has not experienced yet.

[robotfightclub]

Guess I just have a low tolerance for mechs like that.

[Seriously, Mirage, you deserve better. Let her introduce you to some people or something.]

[perfavore]

I do not blame you. Not many...do.

[His wings fold down as he follows her lead, sheepishly avoiding her gaze.]

He is the only Autobot here from my universe. I...I don't want him to disappear like the other two who arrived.
