Friday Evening: Town Hall: Homecoming (8pm - 10pm)

The first thing that might be noticed when students walked into the Town Hall was the towering stone troll statues that had been dragged in to grace the corners of the dance floor.  It being Homecoming and a semi-formal dance, the trolls were decked out appropriately in hats, glitter, and togas.  Fairy lights were strung across the ceiling, some twined with streamers and some dripping glitter and confetti across the dance floor. 

The walls were decorated with blown up pictures of significant events at Fandom: Graduations, the school blowing up, the Christmas pageants, plays, carnivals, zombies, all the moments that make Fandom Fandom.  Given a place of honour on the walls were a mock up of an exploding volcano, a massive gremlin in a bow tie, and, of course, the Stickbug flag.

Large lit up snowmen congregated around the punch bowl against a snowy backdrop and across the ballroom near the stage, there was a mural of large dinosaurs reaching up to enjoy a glittery streamer dinner.  The wall of the door though had the biggest picture of all - a painting of the island at night from across the water.

As students dropped off their wraps, they were pointed to vote for Homecoming Court then encouraged to proceed into the ballroom.

Valentine managed to not fall on his arse. Which really did result in quite the spectacular two-step sort of foot-shuffle he had ever managed.

"Hello, Rikku."

He grinned. "Don't tell the pixie? The outfit is on loan for the evening."

...

"Without her knowled-- what in the world is on your hand?"

"It's, uh, a little hand-puppet?" Rikku lifted it up and settled a toque on it. "'Heyyyy, bro.'"

She shrugged. "'Cause, you know. Jude's back in Canada and I'm stuck by myself."

Valentine eyed the puppet for a moment, then shrugged and smiled.

"It's a rather close likeness, if I do say so myself."

Valentine wouldn't know 'close likeness' if it bit him in the arse.

"Can I steal you for a dance, later?" she asked, bouncing on her toes. "If it's okay with her and all."

Valentine glanced at Naminé curiously.

"One dance for the lady and her handpuppet?"

"I think I can spare you for that," she laughed.

Valentine chuckled and nodded back to Rikku.

"And there you have it," he stated with a grin. "You can steal me away for a dance. Keeping in mind... that I can't dance."

He had to warn the poor girl, okay?

"Me either!" Rikku said cheerfully. "Okay, then! Bye!"
