Homecoming Dance | Town Hall | Saturday Evening | Post I

Glitter encrusted moosen stood guard in the entry to the transformed Town Hall, reminding all those in attendance that the night was about all things Canadian. Or things the Student Council had deemed Canadian - plus a whole lot of glitter.

Sparkly red maple leaves and paper geese hung from irridescent streamers, setting off the food tables as very much separate from the raised dance floor in case the terrifying papier-mâché beaver didn't make it obvious that the timbits were for eating. Or for dunking in the maple syrup fountain. Beyond pure sugar, there were plenty of bite-size portioned food and nonalcoholic beverages to push the theme into the bellies of all, no matter how tight the dresses!

Beyond the dance floor, the shadowy corners glowed with the twinkle of glittery maple leaf garland and a Joni Mitchell inspired moose that had been strategically positioned to look rather tragic in its lyric-covered glory. Yes, glory. For the evening was to be glorious. Or at the very least entertaining.

Welcome to your 2011 Homecoming Dance!

"I stopped back to see what it would run me," he said. "I can even pay in nickels!"

He wouldn't dream of actually paying for something with nickels.

"Please tell me you're joking." Mainly because if he'd been in a Mooby Land or whatever and she'd missed it...

"If you've already been there, we're going to have to change our plan," Jaina decided. "Change of venue."

"I might have already made reservations for somewhere else," he admitted.

Or had people do it. At four different places. None of them were drive-throughs.

You couldn't expect her not to ask. "And where would somewhere else be?"

"Depends," Eric replied. "Are you in the mood for Italian, Thai, or Spanish or something they call modern American?"

Someone was very pleased with himself, yes.
solo_sword: (really?)

Jaina blinked. "I have a choice of four?" Boy was thorough.

"You have a real habit of surprising me," Jaina said after a moment.

It was definitely a compliment.

"I don't see you that often," Eric replied. "It gives me time to think."

"It shows," she said. "And speaking of not seeing me that often, when are you visiting?"
texted3times: (come take a drive with me)

"When's good for you?" he asked. "I'm pretty clear in November."

"Early November is better," Jaina decided. "It's fairly quiet at home right now, but I can't guarantee it'll stay that way the farther away we plan."

She was saving those texts forever, by the way.
