fandomtownies | Valentine's Day Dance | Town Hall

Valentine’s dances were traditionally non-traditional on Fandom and this one was no exception—if, perhaps, rather more romantic than some years had been.

Across the ceiling and thick enough to hide the ceiling itself, streamers had been draped in dark blue to represent the night sky, and from that hung lanterns. They were rather large for ‘stars’ but the room was big enough to allow for that. Flowers everywhere—but not the traditional roses, rather there were water lilies adorning each table in elegant dishes that were filled with just enough water to allow the lilies to float. Bamboo and acacia were set by the walls, giving the illusion of being out in the open, and hibiscus and jasmine scented the air.

A fountain was running, letting the sound of water flow as an undercurrent to the decorations, and the heat was turned up. It wasn’t quite the same as a real tropical paradise, but the Student Council had tried.

Welcome to ‘An Evening in Bali’, where winter was nothing but a dream.

"Oh, no, no, no," Ariel laughed, shaking both her hands and her head, "you don't have to get me any! I got plenty! And I'm definitely here solo. I...couldn't really decide who to ask, and so that seemed a good sign that I should probably just see how things went."

"That just means you get to pick while you're here," Rinoa beamed. "Think of it like a competition. Winner gets you."

Ariel snorted slightly. "For it to be a competition," she pointed out, "they'd have to know they were competing first..."

"Maybe you tell them," she giggled. "But then you'd get some guys competing just to compete. Men."

"I really wouldn't want them competing anyway," Ariel said. "Except maybe in a bowling match, or something."

"It wouldn't have to be some beating-each-other-up thing," Rinoa said. "More like, time them on an obstacle course, have them write love poetry and grade whose is the best ..."

"Okay, that," Ariel laughed, "could be fun! And there's have to be a dancing competition, too! And, the ultimate challenge? Will you wear the pink polo shirt from the store?"

"I don't think I've seen it," she laughed. "How bad is the pink?"

"It's not bad at all!" Ariel insisted with a laugh of her own. "It's my favorite shirt! But whenever any boys come in for help, they always turn it down!"
