log; Come with me and you'll be in a world of pure imagination...

when; Sunday August 19th, evening
where; The Rabbit Hole Hotel
who; Your gracious host Alice Liddell AND YOU!
what;

[The Rabbit Hole Hotel is a glimmering beacon in the night, lit up with lanterns and fairy lights. Upon entering, any guests will be escorted to a formal ballroom, complete with elegant buffet. Guests are also free to explore the grounds and gardens, which have all been lit up for your enjoyment. Small nooks and crannies are also available for more intimate drinking and talk.

Your host, Alice, will be flitting about, talking to everyone as she can.]





[ooc: Threads will be set up for different sections of the party, but feel free to set up your own. Prose or action are both fine, the only rule is to MINGLE MINGLE MINGLE!]

[Tommy stands in a corner, fiddling awkwardly with his cravat. Why'd he let Merton talk him into this?

The music's good, though, and he certainly wouldn't mind dancing. He looks around for someone to ask.]

[Alec is there. Suddenly. Without warning. He does this. It's a thing.]

If you keep on futzing with that you'll get it completely undone and they're a bitch to get together.

[Alec should know. He's wearing one, as well as a brilliantly red coat with gold trim that someone from the Victorian era would be comfortable in. In fact the only thing that ruins the Victorian look is the colors and the long sword at his side.]

Aaah!

[His werewolf senses are supposed to alert him when someone's coming! Not cool, man.]

Yeah, I know. It took me an hour to get into this thing.

[Well, there's coming and then there's wasn't there a moment ago and now is there. Teleportation for the win!]

Used to take me that long. You got it pretty well done.

Hey Tommy, they have wine here!

[When he comes over to Tommy, Luke is female, although he might have just as easily been male. He's picked up a champagne glass at some point, although it appears to have punch in it instead.]

Not a dancer? There are seats, you know. You needn't feel obliged to hang about on the sidelines.
justhairy: (pic#3848793)

[personal profile] justhairy 2012-08-23 10:44 pm (UTC)(link)
[CUTE GIRL. Like, not Tommy's usual type -- he likes his women more traditionally feminine and "all-American" -- but that doesn't stop Tommy from trying to act cool.]

Heeeeeeeeeeey. I like dancing. I've just been waiting for the right partner.


Wanna dance?


[So smooth.]
infernoandhearth: (Talk)

Luke

[personal profile] infernoandhearth 2012-08-23 12:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[Luke couldn't choose what to wear, so he came in both forms. Not simultaneously, of course: he's spending certain parts of the night in something very close to his own shape, in a waistcoat minus the jacket because it was getting in his way. The other half is spent in a favoured female form.

He's been taking the time to dance with absolutely everyone he can convince to. This is brilliant: he hasn't been to a proper party for ages.]
infernoandhearth: (Charm)

[personal profile] infernoandhearth 2012-08-23 03:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[Female, Luke eyes Alice, sizing her up and looking mildly calculating as he does so. Coming to a decision, he switches over to male, the change running across him like flames, and bows politely to her when he's done. He holds out his hand.]

Not as much as I might be.

[Data has come, because any opportunity to observe social interaction is not something he'll miss. He is wearing a suit, standing passively on an edge of the room and... watching.

And certainly, he would never be one to turn away conversation.]
justhairy: (pic#3848793)

AW YEAH

[personal profile] justhairy 2012-08-26 03:10 am (UTC)(link)
[Merton is Tommy's best friend. Ever. In the whole world. He's incredibly grateful that, if he's gonna be stuck in this weird fairy place, he's with his bro.

But sometimes the goth kid can be just a little too much. Even best friends need a breather. So Tommy is walking around the party, leaving Merton to make a fool out of himself on his own. (Heartless, dude. Heartless.)]


Hey Data! Nice suit!
thirdcriterion: (I'm a champion at D&D)

[personal profile] thirdcriterion 2012-09-04 06:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[Data glances up, giving Tommy his standard, perfectly practiced social smile. It's fairly natural, a sign of how far he's developed his social abilities. He nods slightly.]

Ah- greetings, Tommy. And, thank you; I had hoped that it would be suitable.

[With the slightest tilt of his head.]

Are you finding the evening to be enjoyable?

Food is very important. Which is why Alec is investigating it by prodding everything with his finger that can be prodded.

"Hello and yes." He tips his imaginary hat to her. And then wishes he had an actual hat. After a moment he decides against creating one out of thin air. The lack of hatness does show off his pointy ears at least.

He doesn't mind.

"I don't think we've been introduced. I'm Alec."

"Investigating a new eating method?" asks Luke, falling in beside Alec. He's holding a plate absolutely piled with things, and munching on them between comments. "You're allowed to eat it, you know. And it's not enchanted." He nods his head toward his plate. "I've tested it all for you. You're welcome."
element_wizard: (Peeeeeer)

[personal profile] element_wizard 2012-08-23 06:01 pm (UTC)(link)
"Making it sure it doesn't move funny. Enchantment doesn't bother me." It doesn't really. It just wears off after a while. Still, he will take a few things off of Luke's plate.

Because he can.

[Iroh has stuffed himself with food and is now taking a stroll about the garden. As much as he would like to find his way home, it would be rude to refuse such hospitality! And the grounds are quite lovely.]

[personal profile] lawbender 2012-08-21 12:53 am (UTC)(link)
[ Lin can't resist the gardens, even if she isn't particularly interested in the ball. But there's something so familiar about this old man that she stops in her tracks. If he were just a bit taller, a bit older, he'd be her mother's best friend. But Uncle Iroh has been dead for years. ]

[ She stares, anyway. She can't help it. ]
o_tea_p: (Happy: quiet contentment)

[personal profile] o_tea_p 2012-08-21 01:25 am (UTC)(link)
[Lin's gaping does not go unnoticed. It's been many years since anyone looked at him like that, much less a lovely young lady. Not that he would flatter himself.

He smiles at her.]


It's a beautiful evening, isn't it?
