Prom 2011, Community Center, Friday Evening [Part 1]

The community center had been decked out once again, this time to welcome Fandom's students to their prom. The Student Council had picked a black and white theme, and that had ended up translating to classic Hollywood in the decorations. There were black and white balloons and streamers hanging up, blown up pictures from old black and white movies decorating the walls, and each table had a vase of lillies, to give the place a little extra springtime feel.

Tiny white lights had been hung up all around the dance floor to give people a bright place to get their groove on, and the only thing that didn't match the theme was the food and drink table, which was covered with all kinds of ~~moddable~~ treats. With everything set up, the doors were opened, and the evening was ready to begin.

Show off those fancy clothes! You don't get to dress like this all the time! Well, most of you, at least.

So you can remember this night forever! To balance out the theme, the photographer can make the backdrop any color you desire.

Have your punch now, before it gets tainted, and enjoy the variety of sweets and desserts that were made for the evening.

For those brave adults who are looking after the teenagers tonight.

For those who want to stay away from the bright lights and crowds.

For touching up makeup, gossiping, and all the other things that happen in ladies-only spaces.

'Cause boys need a space to gossip too. Or fix their makeup, who knows.

Shake your groove thing to the DJ's ~~moddable~~ tunes.

For those songs that make you want to cuddle close to one another. But not too close, the grownups are watching.

Up early for your playing pleasure, and so I don't have to worry about not having internet at work! A second prom post will go up later today with all the late evening stuff. Have fun! Keep your fingers crossed for no LJ shenanigans!

Ender had never really avoided wearing his IF dress uniform (sans decorations) before, and while this might have been his first prom, he wasn't fussed to change that now.

So he was there, on his own, looking both perfectly fine with it all and a little out of place. The chances of him staying here, on the other hand, were going to grow smaller as the chances of the punch being spiked went up.

In other words, business as usual.

Ender had picked up some food earlier, but he'd eaten it fairly quickly and tossed the left-overs in the trash. Now he was here, observing quietly.

Maybe a little lost in his own thoughts, and maybe wondering vaguely what Jane would have to say about it all. He had a Bluetooth set he needed to work on, obviously.

Jono was not exactly what anybody would call 'well rested' this evening, considering the turn his week had taken while in New Orleans. Still, he was willing to acknowledge that he really only got one Senior Prom, and tired or not, he wasn't about to miss it, just so long as he could take it in with the loveliest lady he knew on one arm.

He still hated these formal events, though. Even if he had been able to find a new suit at the last minute.

This whole 'being the responsible adult' thing was still pretty new for Reno. So many friggin' rules. No spiking the punch. No letting the students burn the place down. No encouraging the soon-to-be graduates to streak through their grad ceremony the way that he'd done.

Where was the fun in being grown up, anyhow?

Ah well. He was here anyhow, making faces at his cup of pre-spiked punch, and trying to look respectable. Or less bored. Or something.

Bond found a spot on the wall from where he could watch most of the room wall and leant against it.

He leant against it like a mofo.

Calvin had dragged his one and only suit out from the back of his closet for tonight, although his one and only tie was once again missing-in-action.

Effy always did feel better in the dark, and even better still when that darkness was coupled with music loud enough that she could drown out anything she didn't really want to hear.

Technically dateless as usual (despite knowing someone who'd be pissed if she left with anyone else), she'd settled comfortably against a wall with her personally spiked drink to watch people.

Suit on, Alex arrived and almost got a little wistful that this might be his very last dance attended as a student. Of course, he shook that wistfulness away quickly, straightened his tie and grinned.

If it was the last dance, he planned on making it a good one.

The shadowy corners had been good to Alex before so he was there again, drink in hand and back against the wall. He could see people fine right where he was and he suspected he could find those he wanted to talk to easily enough.

"You didn't waste any time in getting over here, did you?" Alex asked, moving to lean beside her, shoulder against hers. "Missed your dark corners?"

"Like coming home," she answered, smirking lightly before she glanced sideways at him. Or something like that. "Notice I'm not the only one, either." Here he was, after all.

"Well, did you want me to shot at you from across the room?" Alex asked, settling in beside her comfortably and trying to look adorable enough that she'd share her drink. "I think you'd just give me a look of disgust and ignore me if I did that."

Although it was true that William could typically be found in a suit, they were not quite as sharp as the tuxedo he'd acquired for formalwear.

At least, he rather hoped 'sharp' was the impression said tuxedo gave off.

"Once again, my compliments to student council," he said to his ~~cruelly modded, mwahahaha~~ date.

Raven was wearing her Christmas present from Karla and Warren, fitting right in with the black and white decorations.

"I am certain this night will end better than the last party we attended," she said lightly, arm linked with Jono's. They weren't surrounded by vampires, at least.

Just maybe a couple.
