GENESSIA PROM!


 
I - SETUP (12:00pm-5:00pm)

For any and all who agreed to help with the decorations, this would be the time to gather at the Hotel. A large list of assignments will be posted on the wall near the entrance, with duties including but not limited to:

1. Setting Tables, including placement of centerpieces
2. Wall and ceiling decorations, involving a lot of
gossamer drapery and lights
3. Preparing the buffet table, with a mixture of hot and cold foods, as well as a separate table at the end for delectable deserts
4. Getting all necessary equipment on stage for the Live Band to perform.  Sound Checks may occur throughout.
5. A side dressing room area set up exclusively for those who volunteered to take the time to get ready themselves, including special hair and makeup stations and a large rack to hang their dresses & shoes to change into later



II - HOTEL LOBBY (6:30pm onward)

Cozy and luxurious in its own right, those who arrive before Prom is scheduled to begin will be allowed to lounge in the Hotel Lobby for a spell. Meeting and greeting other early birds and partaking in a select few hors d'oeuvre made available while waiting for the doors to open
 


III. - PROM PHOTOS!

In the far corner of the lobby, a cute backdrop will be set up, ready for any and all couples/groups/brave souls going stag for the evening to take a memorable photograph! Selfies are welcome throughout, but for those desiring a more professional setup, Hikari Yagami will be on hand for the first and last hours of the night for "official" Prom Photos. 

Smile, everyone!


IV - EATING/DRINKING

  

With a "bar" consisting of 90% nonalcoholic beverages--the remaining ten percent reserved for of age chaperones--and a buffet table spanning the length of the side wall, there will be no shortage of food options that night!  Hot pasta dishes, cold sandwiches, fruits, vegetable platters, and a special end section devoted to some of the best sweets Genessia's bakeries have to offer!

Of course, what prom would be complete without the traditional Fruit Bowl Punch?  Better get a sip in early, though...because some traditions never die, and it's not like those in charge can keep an eye on that bowl the entire night, can they?


V. - DANCE FLOOR


With a live band (Thank you, Professor!) ready to rock, you'll soon be dancing the night away, under ethereal decorations that will really make you feel like you're dancing among the stars!

In between sets, there will be a DJ spinning a mixture of slow dances, crowd favorites, and songs that'll really get the party rockin'
(LMFAO style).
 



VI. - CHAPERONES
 

Because somebody's got to make sure the kids behave.

Hopefully actual adults who can behave themselves.




 
VII. - MINGLING/MISC.
 
What other shenanigans could the teens and tweens of Genessia possible get up to?  The night is young, and so are they~

Mikaela

[personal profile] inthedriversseat 2018-05-19 04:26 pm (UTC)(link)
a)

Her first prom! She's very excited, proud of the red dress she had chosen with Yang's help. She'd saved for the dress ever since she first heard of the prom, after all, so it's a particular point of pride.

Having chosen to come stag along with Yang, Mikaela is determined to mingle. She keeps moving from one group to another to meet new people and have some small talk, trying to meet as many people as she can in the friendly atmosphere.

When she's not chatting to people, she is eager to dance - whether alone or with a partner.

You might easily be approached by her, with her just plain asking, "do you want to dance?" whether she knows you or not.

b)

Wildcard (or choose from prompts)

Uh....Um... I must admit, I can't dance.

[She couldn't help but laugh somewhat awkwardly at admitting that. She was also a little nervous about dancing in front of other people.]

[ Mikaela looks stunned for a moment before chuckling. ]

Who can even dance for real? We can just move to the music. Unless you'd rather not. If you'd rather get a drink...?
brbgettingwrench: (123)

[personal profile] brbgettingwrench 2018-05-28 01:30 pm (UTC)(link)
No, I should at least try new things, right?

[Plus she would seem like a party pooper when the reason she came here was to have fun and get a bit out of work for a time. Otherwise, she keeps finding herself sinking into it more.]

So just moving to the music seems like no one can get hurt then.

Alright!

[ Moving to the music is what Mikaela does best anyway, and she tries her best to pull Winry into it as well. ]

Not like I ever learned formal dancing anyway. What's your name?
brbgettingwrench: (241)

[personal profile] brbgettingwrench 2018-06-06 12:28 pm (UTC)(link)
I've never learned formal dancing either. Had no one to really learn with either.

[She just swayed with the movie.]

I'm Winry. Winry Rockbell.

[personal profile] inthedriversseat 2018-06-15 06:01 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm Mikaela Banes.

[ When the music speeds up, she keeps in sync with it. ]

Learning formal dancing could be fun, but yeah, who even wants to go? Don't think I could have dragged a boyfriend to dance school.

[personal profile] brbgettingwrench 2018-06-17 09:44 pm (UTC)(link)
I had a friend help me. He was pretty good at it, but it's still only very basic just swaying to the music.

[Which she was keeping in beat to, so she was happy with herself.]

Though your boyfriend wouldn't be the type to go dancing?

He was too young for prom at home and that was saying something because he was younger than maybe people thought and that didn't matter, he was getting to go.

He wasn't too sure about the whole thing, but he wanted to see it for himself.

He saw someone familiar. Not that he really knew Mikaela, but he saw her in his reflection not that long ago.

Peter approached with an awkward smile. "Hey."

[personal profile] inthedriversseat 2018-05-25 06:11 pm (UTC)(link)
"Hey."

Her smile was equally awkward, she fiddled with a strand of her hair. This was more than just normal level awkward. This.. this was full blown body swap awkward. Whole new level of awkward.

"So. You look. Um. Better. Being you."

[personal profile] spidertwerp 2018-05-27 08:56 am (UTC)(link)
"Thanks!" He said cheerfully and paused. "I think."

Peter shrugged and shuffled nervously. "Uh, so hey, thanks for taking care of my body before. Sorry you had to deal with it. I'm used to it but you know, I bet it was kind of a shock."

Mikaela thought momentarily about denying it politely, but then she gave a shrug and a small nod. No point denying the obvious. "Yeah, truth be told... It was hella weird at first, the noise and all that... But once I got past that it was fun." She smirked. "And that's one way to get to know a guy..."
spidertwerp: (Girls are Cool)

[personal profile] spidertwerp 2018-05-31 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
"Yeah, I guess that's true." He chuckled and shrugged helplessly.

"It took getting used to, I know. It was really weird when it happened."
inthedriversseat: (Default)

[personal profile] inthedriversseat 2018-06-06 11:25 am (UTC)(link)
"You bet it was." She snickers. "Never thought I would be some kind of spidergirl... guy. This place has got to be the weirdest, ever, and I've seen some weird stuff back home. But I owe you big time for talking me through it."

[personal profile] spidertwerp 2018-06-13 03:53 pm (UTC)(link)
"Don't worry about it." He smiled and waved his hand a little. "I just wanted to help. It didn't seem fair to spring that kind of thing on people, you know?"
inthedriversseat: (Default)

[personal profile] inthedriversseat 2018-06-15 06:02 pm (UTC)(link)
"It wouldn't, but that doesn't mean people wouldn't have done so anyway." She gave a shrug. "Anyway, I just... Yeah. Thanks. And maybe we can be friends now that we're in our proper bodies again."

"Uhhh, sure!" Peter smiled. He was a little awkward.

"Do you like science fiction?" It was a better question than whatever was the latest breakthrough and biophysics. People responded better to popular culture.

[personal profile] inthedriversseat 2018-07-07 03:29 pm (UTC)(link)
She laughs a little, complete with a sheepish grin. "Last year I would have told you that's for nerds but then my life turned into a science-fiction movie so.. Yeah. I guess I do? Kind of hard not to."
