"I would rather he not be so obvious, either." Tecna critically frowned, "Take this the way I mean it, but it is hard respecting a teacher when he or she makes apparent that they suffer from the very same vulnerabilities."
Tecna stood, brushing off her short, sea-green cocktail dress. It was quite simple and mature looking, but the material was a softly-brushed synthetic material that hugged all the right places. "Maybe we should go over there." Tecna gave Flora a wink, "After all, you handle triangles with far more grace than Sky ever has."

Flora nodded at Tecna's suggestion that they move nearer to the boys. "I think you might have a good idea, Tec," she said softly. "By the way, that color looks lovely on you. As much as I love any shade of green, somehow I'm not able to pull it off."
"And I always thought that Professor Palladium wasn't interested in either gender. You remember how squeamish he was last year," Flora said, still in her soft quiet tones.

Tecna flushed slightly at Flora's compliment. Frankly, she felt self-conscious in anything outside of her usual garb, so the kind words from her friend meant the world to her. "Thank you, Flora...I was really wondering if I made the right choice...I don't have fashion advisors like so many of the other girls--apparently I am a lost cause...?" She drifted off as Flora led her to the circle of boys in the corner, and she felt her pulse speed up suddenly. What was her problem? It's not like she hadn't approached them before.
But then again, never wearing something quite so fancy and attention-getting. The feeling of having all of their eyes on her at any given time made her light-headed.

"Hey, guys," Flora said shyly, "accidentally" stepping on Sky's foot when she and Tecna joined their group. She doubted anyone would think it wasn't an accident. She offered Helia a shy smile.
Helia, for once, was at a loss. He had no idea how to talk to Flora without sounding like an utter idiot so he just gave her a shy smile back.

Christine made her way back to the stage. She climbed it and looked out at the audience. She heaved a soft, quiet sigh as her mood turned semi-melancholy and she swayed back and forth a bit. "I'm nobody's girl.... I want your love, But yeah, there are limits, You gotta know my plans every minute, Baby, it's like you want to own me, And it isn't right, Just 'cause it feels so good when you hold me, Now all at once you want to control me, Baby, in case you don't remember, This is still my life....
I'm not gonna do whatever you say, No, no, If that's what you need, I'll be on my way.... I'm nobody's girl, No boy's gonna tell me what to do, I'm nobody's girl, Don't treat me like I belong to you, I'm nobody's girl, Oh, baby, if I'm with you, It's 'cause I choose to be, Nobody owns me....
I'm going places, I've got ambitions, Thank you, but I don't need your permission, Baby, before you give me your love, Give me your respect.... I'm not gonna walk a few steps behind, No, no, If that's what you need, Then this is goodbye....
I'm nobody's girl, No boy's gonna tell me what to do, I'm nobody's girl, Don't treat me like I belong to you, I'm nobody's girl, Oh, baby, if I'm with you, It's 'cause I choose to be, Nobody owns me.... Here's a new idea, Just treat me like I treat you, If you don't know how, Then, baby, I don't need you, It's a simple thing, baby, Oh, yeah....
Don't try to tell me what to do, This is my life, baby, Oh, yeah, if I'm with you, It's 'cause I choose to be, You don't own me.... I'm nobody's girl, No boy's gonna tell me what to do, I'm nobody's girl, Don't treat me like I belong to you, I'm nobody's girl, Oh, baby, if I'm with you, It's 'cause I choose to be, Nobody owns me.... I'm nobody's girl, No boy's gonna tell me what to do, I'm nobody's girl, Don't treat me like I belong to you, I'm nobody's girl, Oh, baby, if I'm with you, It's 'cause I choose to be, Nobody owns me....
I'm nobody's girl, No boy's gonna tell me what to do, I'm nobody's girl, Don't treat me like I belong to you, I'm nobody's girl, Oh, baby, if I'm with you, It's 'cause I choose to be, Nobody owns me...."

Musa stood, on a corner, with a chinese-like red dress, searching for her friends, and, even though she didn't wanted to admit it, for Riven. A she saw Flora and Tecna, she decided going near then.

Timmy sauntered into the ballroom and unconsciously cleaned off his glasses. He hated dances for the sole reason that he just couldn't dance if his life depended on it. The only dance he did know was the one that got him away from all the popular, good dancers and over to the corner where fellow engineers from Red Fountain congregated and whiled the evening away discussing their latest projects.
Even so, as he passed a mixed group of party-goers, he couldn't help but pause and stand on tip-toe, scanning their faces for a certain fairy with a knack for technology...

"Tecna? Isn't that Timmy?" Flora whispered, pointing over to one of the men who just entered the room. "I think he's looking for you." She glanced up at the stage and listened to the singer. "Whoa. Someone's upset."

Someone's upset." ''Hi Flora, hi Tecna.'' Musa went closer to her friends, even though she was paying atention to the singer. Of course, as she loved, loved, loved music.''Nice song. A bit sad, though.'' She just looked at her friends, and commented.''What's going on with you two today, anyways?'' |

"Hey, Muse," Flora said, hugging her friend. "Chatting with the boys," she said, gesturing to the small group. "Listening to music." She glanced over her shoulder and "accidentally" stepped on Sky's foot again as she scooted around and hid between him and Helia. "And trying to get Professor Palladium's attention *off* me."

Musa just looked at Palladium. It was just her, or he was dressed as if he was trying to get someone's atention? Probably, he WAS trying to get someone's atention. And by the way Flora talked, it was pretty obvious who this person would be. ''He surely is... Dressed... Up.'' She said, looking at the teacher, trying her best to look as if she wasn't teasing anyone.
OOC:They use dressed up for men, right?^^'

Stella sauntered in out of the kitchen " Cocktail shrimp, pigs in a blanket, mini subs"
She hated this and now she had to have a parent
teacher interview.
"Hey Flora, looks like somebodies looking at you"

Christine shook herself, getting melancholy was not going to do good. Especially at this dance. She'd let herself get melancholy later - on her own time, not the school's. "Can this be true, tell me can this be real How can I put into words what I feel My life was complete, I thought I was whole Why do I feel like I'm losing control I never thought that love could feel like this Then you changed my world with just one kiss How can it be that right here with me There's an angel, it's a miracle Your love is like a river Peaceful and deep Your soul is like a secret That I never could keep When I look into your eyes I know that it's true God must have spent a little more time on you Oh a little more time, yes he did baby In all of creation, All things great and small You are the one that surpasses them all More precious than and diamond or pearl They broke the mold when you came in this world And I'm trying hard to figure out Just how I ever did without The warmth of your smile, The heart of a child That's deep inside and leaves me purified On you... Yes he did baby," she sang gently.

OOC: yep, they used dressed up for men  When Musa and Stella both pointed out the fact that Palladium was dressed up and looking for her, Flora nearly fainted dead away. She kept a mental mantra of he was a teacher and that he was just simply dressed up for one of the other teachers, and that he didn't fancy her going. "So," she said, quickly changing the topic. "Uh... anyone have plans for *after* the dance?" |
