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.)

I'm assumin' you don't want to tear my spark out. Either you're afraid of me or NOT afraid of me.

So why you with the Cons?

[redshirtrobot]

... I don't want to, no. Even if I thought I could... you're not. So bad.

[He takes a swig of energon before saying anymore, claws ticking on the cube.]

Autobots will kill us, but... the officers would do a lot worse, if any of us deserted. Not like the Autobots would help us, either.

[wheeljackofalltrades]

...Okay, I can sorta get that part. You're not made to fight, so ya avoid gettin' in the devil's path.

But why join his side to start? Survival?

[redshirtrobot]

We can fight... but we're no Wreckers and we definitely aren't Team Prime.

But. It seemed like a pretty sure thing, all those gladiators and all. And Megatron was pretty persuasive. Now, more of us have been built into the service than not. I've been pretty lucky, how long I've lived.

[wheeljackofalltrades]

That he was, mook. That he was. Made a lot of promises... It would appeal to anyone of the lower castes.

I was tempted, too.

[redshirtrobot]

You too? No way. [He actually manages to look surprised at that.]

I mean, I just couldn't imagine you being a Decepticon. But... really?

[wheeljackofalltrades]

I guess what ya could say was...Megatronus made some good points. But when it got down to his methods...

If I'm gonna get my hands dirty, I want it to be for the right cause.

[redshirtrobot]

That's. Probably the best way to look at it, yeah. Kind of tough lines, though.

[Especially with how things have been looking.]

... You would have been a really scary officer. Just so you know.

[wheeljackofalltrades]

Fraggin right I would be.

[Punch to the shoulder.]

But ain't gonna happen.

[redshirtrobot]

Guess you just have to settle for extremely scary Wrecker, then.

[He rubs his shoulder, tipping his head in a grin.]

Which is pretty good anyway.
