Large ballroom of the Arms hotel, Saturday night

[gameknowsgame.livejournal.com]

The ballroom was decorated old-school Vegas style. There were areas set up for roulette, craps, slots, and card games. There was a dance floor for anyone so inclined, as well as places to sit and talk.

The food was some of Gunther's finest with birthday cake for dessert.

Blair Waldorf was 17 now, and she was celebrating in style.

Arrive!

Show up, mingle, get the lay of the land.

Hannibal didn't know Blair too well but he wasn't going to resist a party. Especially not one thrown in a hotel. He was there, taking it all in.

Ned knew Blair well enough that he wanted to come for her party so he was there, carrying a few things.

John was proud that for once he'd come to one of these birthday things prepared with a gift. And trying to look nice, since the birthday girl had gone to the trouble of ensuring he was able to dress up to her standards.

As though Kaylee'd miss Blair's party! She had agonized a bit over what to wear, but she thought she looked presentable, and she'd even gotten her hair to comply.

Ino wasn't sure that she'd even, you know, met Blair but that wasn't going to stop her at all from showing up at a party.

Yay party!

Of course Angela was here, personal invite from the birthday girl.

Saturday night and she was happy and definitely ready for a party.

Yah, Amber knew who Blair was but she'd never met her. Didn't keep her away from a party!

Re: Arrive!

Liz didn't really know Blair all that well but she hadn't been social in a while and she thought that going to a party would be the best way to correct that.

Mary was there for professional reasons, of course, but she was dressed for the occasion. She deserved a night out, even if it was just in the hotel.

Rusty wasn't one to pass up a casino. Even if it was at a teenager's birthday party.

Dick had shown up to several parties Blair had hosted before. It wouldn't be right now to show up for her birthday party.

What? There was a party, outside of the dorms, and Cal actually bothered going to it?

Somewhere in Michigan, Hell froze over, which was a more reoccuring event than people tend to think.

It was Blair's birthday, so of course Ella was there.

Re: Arrive!

It was a birthday party; Turtle just had to show up and make an appearance and everything, even if she didn't know Blair very well.

Hoshi didn't really know Blair, but she'd seen all the preparations for the party and felt she should be there just in case Gunther flipped out.

Re: Arrive!

Chuck was there the ENTIRE TIME. wink

Presents!

[gameknowsgame.livejournal.com]

Can be left here, if you brought any.

Re: Presents!

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

Hannibal left a card with a cuddly doggie on the front and ten bucks inside. He tried. He had no idea what Blair liked.

Re: Presents!

[death-and-pies.livejournal.com]

Ned left a homemade apple pie and something soft and pink (http://www.amazon.com/DIAMOND-CHECKED-SOFTER-CASHMERE-SCARF/dp/B001IN3DRU/ref=sr_1_48?ie=UTF8&s=apparel&qid=1227396128&sr=8-48) he hoped would be nice for winter.

Eat! Drink!

[gameknowsgame.livejournal.com]

Partake of fine foods!

Re: Eat! Drink!

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

Hannibal grabbed a drink and found a seat, kicking his feet up and relaxing.

Gamble!

Who knows if the house will always win?

This was probably where Jaina would spend the majority of her night. Even if see didn't know the games, she was mainly watching to learn, and by the time she left she was planning on being able to take someone's money.

Dance!

[gameknowsgame.livejournal.com]

If one wishes to boogie-oogie!

Talk to Blair

[gameknowsgame.livejournal.com]

Should you wish to say hi or pass along birthday wishes.

Re: Talk to Blair

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

Angela all but bounced over to Blair when she saw her.

"Hey, happy birthday, sweetie!" she greeted.

OOC!

[gameknowsgame.livejournal.com]

She was originally going to celebrate last night but dude: I got to see Twilight with people who had NO IDEA WHAT IT WAS ABOUT. Clearly the opportunity could not be missed.

Ned's scarf is open for Blair mocking omg. I know that she will use that to clean spills. ;-)
