Summer Dance/Gala Event | Evening | Saturday | June 19

As the sun started to set, the lights officially came on at the new community center! The building was now complete, its walls gleaming and solid in the waning light. As people began to arrive, they would notice decorations lining the tiled and bright corridors, leading them towards the large auditorium where the dance was being held.

Once inside the auditorium, there were more decorations. Streamers in the colors of summer hung from the rafters and painted the walls. There were fresh flowers in every corner and on every table, bringing fragrance and festiveness to the room. The lights were low in the auditorium, dimmed to provide both mood and setting to this party in the evening.

There were several long tables stocked full with foods of all kinds and there was even a bar with an expert bartender who'd be happy to serve you. Tips were welcome but not mandatory. Large speakers hung in the corners of the room, installed to provide the latest and greatest sound system to the new building.

Everything was completed, everything was ready so it was time to enjoy yourselves!

"Haven't booked the portal yet," Jack said sheepishly. "I work Thursdays, so I might try for first thing Friday morning -- a week from Friday, I mean."

It was only a few extra days to stay past the end of term, and Ms. Cabot's files didn't organize themselves. Or so Jack told himself. In truth, he was well aware he was leaving at the last possible moment.

A year ago, he would never have believed he'd drag his feet about leaving the island. But a lot of things were different a year ago.

Kate couldn't help looking just the tiniest bit surprised. Somehow she'd managed to not really remember how soon the term was ending, or that he'd be leaving once it did.

"Yes, well, sometimes I can actually be nice," she said, a little distractedly. "I... really hadn't realized it was going to be that soon. Huh."

"It sneaks up on all of us," Jack said, surprised by her distraction. "Is someone else leaving then, too?"
vanillajello: (Not really.)

"Hmm? Oh. No," Kate replied with a quick shake of her head. "... That I know of."

She should probably check in with some people.
