The Masquerade!

[avibusraris]

Have you signed up to go to the ball? Not everyone is going, and they don't have to! But they are highly encouraged to. Whether they have a date or not depends on how they'll be getting there. If they do have a specific date then the car that picks them up will be a regular guard car, and they will be told to get into the back and be escorted that way. The guard's cannot be harmed in their car, there is a metal blockade in the car, so sorry! For those that don't have a date, they'll be expected to get into a limo, taking about six or seven inmates at once! You might find your friends in the limo on the way there, yay!

The guards will take the inmates to a secluded spot on an entirely different island than the main one the prison is on. It's a coliseum, one that's used for special events involving horses and other fun animals. The Warden special ordered a massive tent that covers the entire coliseum, and there are heat lamps scattered about within. It's cold outside, these are a must! Around the perimeter of the tent there are several guards with loaded guns. They're standing about, watching very carefully, and if anyone tries to attack another inmate or tries to escape they will be shot on sight, no questions asked.

[ Megumi's standing at the sidelines, looking appropriately bored and unimpressed for her goth-ish clothes. She doesn't seem too impressed with the music selection and just yawns. She's going to fall asleep at this rate, someone wake her up and drag her into a dance.]

because why the heck not

[vaframenti]

Not enjoying yourself?

[ It was pretty easy to notice her since they were more or less doing the same thing. ]

[404eyesnotfound]

The same could be said about you, couldn't it?

[ It's kind of hard not to notice someone in the same bystander modus - it's like an immediate silent alliance. ]

[vaframenti]

I was hoping my distaste wasn't so obvious.

[ In truth he wasn't as uninterested as he was letting on, but people generally responded better to those they perceived to have similar outlooks. ]

[404eyesnotfound]

You're not dancing or talking to anybody - as far as 'fun' party activities go, these are in top ranks.

[ She shrugs. ]

[vaframenti]

That's not entirely true. I am talking to you, after all.

[404eyesnotfound]

Very clever. It's not been long.

[vaframenti]

That doesn't mean it doesn't count.

[404eyesnotfound]

There's no way I can deny that statement without belittling myself, so you win for now. It counts.

Mark 'party talking' off on your to-do list.

[vaframenti]

Only for now? [ He smirked slightly. ]

I don't believe I've met you before in any case. Shall we introduce ourselves or keep with the theme of being secretive?

[404eyesnotfound]

Up to you. I don't care either way, Mr. Mystery.

[vaframenti]

Mr. Mystery? That's almost charming enough for me to keep up the charade a while longer.

[404eyesnotfound]

You're easy to please.

[vaframenti]

Who said anything about being pleased? I would say I'm more amused than anything.

[404eyesnotfound]

Same difference, isn't it?

[ Wow, he's good at picking things apart. Don't out-sass her. ]

[vaframenti]

Shall we consult a dictionary?

[ The sass won't stop. ]

[404eyesnotfound]

If you can find one within the next 5 minutes - else I might get bored.

[vaframenti]

And miss a second of this riveting event? You ask far too much.

[404eyesnotfound]

Then let's leave this unsettled for now.

Think of anything riveting to do yet?

[vaframenti]

I'll have to be more prepared next time.

I'm open to suggestions.
