All Throughout the Town, Early Friday Morning

[dontvotemeout]

Early in the morning, all of the flowers and gifts ordered through the Student Council were delivered in the dorms and throughout the town. Someone was going to be collapsing on his bed when this was over, and praying he didn't have to look at any flowers for a long, long time.

[Names are listed in alphabetical order! Students, assume the flowers were left outside your rooms! Teachers and townies, assume the flowers were left outside your homes!

Valentine's Day Dance | Town Hall | Friday Evening [8pm on]

[intraspective]

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.

[WAIT FOR THE OCD is up, up and away! Up early for timezones!

Luke's Diner | Friday

[therewaslife]

Bod still hadn't decided if he was going to go to the dance tonight. One part of him wanted to attend and the other part wanted to stay in his room all night, reading in the quiet of the dorms. He figured he'd probably decide at the last minute. For now, he was busying himself with opening up the diner and greeting the staff. They were all wearing their red and pink today, completely ready for the Valentine's Day holiday.

Fixer-Uppers [all day]

[momslilassassin]

Ben was pleasantly surprised when he got to Fixer-Uppers and discovered that even his more Valentine's Day-focused web searches didn't cause any pop-up ads or random quizzes to show up for him.

Just to be sure, he was now doing searches for "love monkeys."

Fixer-Uppers was open!

Angua had considered sticking around a little bit longer, until at least evening to go to the bar and order just one Coors Lite before she left, but it was just much easier to catch an early portal, and everything was packed and ready to go already and so she'd just have too much time on her hands before she was expected at the Causeway. Even now, she still had a little more time, but it was just enough time, she figured, to sit and have a cup of coffee that actually tasted good before that, like so many other things about the island, would be come just a fond memory.

With everyone occupied with their Valentine's Day stuff, too, it was nice and quiet so she could sit and reflect on going back. There was a small kick in her stomach when she thought about it as going back, because everyone knew, wolves didn't look back.

But that was the thing. She was looking forward.


[[ open for all your coffee needs! This will be my last Angua post, too; she's gone after this, but it's been a great run and thanks to everyone who made her time here awesome! ]]

The Arms Hotel Lobby, Friday [2/11]

[montecito-east.livejournal.com]

After checking last night's audit and then pre-processing tonight's reservations, Mary would usually browse stories on Gawker while waiting for check-in time to start. Today, though, she was finding that Gawker's newly redesigned site was giving her a headache. Everything was taking forever to load. Finally, she just gave up and went back to folding towels. One could never have enough towel swans when the school had their dance this evening.

Welcome to the Arms Hotel!

Pixie Dust, Friday

[ashockingbitch]

Jenny was dressed to kill today because, why not? She looked fabulous in this dress, dammit.

The shop still had entirely too much red and pink in it (and, ugh, lace) and the sign in the window proclaimed:

10% EXTRA
On Anything You Plan to Wear to the Dance
You Sodding Procrastinators

Pixie Dust? Open.

Jessica may have been sulking about a Valentine's Dance that she didn't have a date for. On the other hand, she'd heard on the radio that Eric was back in town, so that had potential. Beware the vampire's mood swings.

Valentine's Day Dance | Town Hall | Friday Evening [8pm on] [Post II]

[intraspective]

It was definitely hotter than it had been from the start and some of the streamers were starting to come loose, making the ‘sky’ look a little on the sorry side of things. Some of the flowers were gone—tucked into hairstyles, on the floor and being trod on, and in-roads had been made on the food.

But the dance was still on-going.

And the punch? Was definitely spiked by now.

[Wait for the OCD has arrived!
