EVENT - VALENTINE'S DAY
◣ VALENTINE'S PARTY ◢
✗ The host club's doors are closed for most of the morning, locals scurrying in and out with an odd flair to help set up for the big event. That sure is a lot of pink and red being carted inside. They must be going all out for this Zelos fellow. Who knows why.
Residents that wander around the plaza for any reason will find a local approaching them, hyping up some aspect of the party that might appeal to them. The lights, the music, the dancing! The chance for gossip! Here, if your date goes poorly, we'll treat you to a drink. If your date goes well, we'll treat you to a drink. If you just want a drink for the sake of it... hey, you get the picture! It's something for both the single and taken alike, and the people of the city seem to be more than happy reminding you of this fact whenever they can.
✗ When it hits noon, all characters who have signed up for blind dates will receive an anonymous text. They will be wished a Happy Valentine's Day, congratulated on their upcoming date, and be asked to arrive at the host club between 5:30 and 6:00 pm. They will be given more instructions upon their arrival. And wear something flattering~! <3
✗ On their arrival to the club, blind date participants will be given a mask to wear. Once they put it on (and ONLY when they put it on), they will be given a number and escorted inside. The tables are covered in tableclothes of varying shades of white, red, and pink, elaborate flower arrangements in the center. While you are waiting for your date, feel free to enjoy the berries and chocolates set at each table, all appropriately cut into hearts and fish.
The meal itself will be three courses - an appetizer, an entree, and a dessert. The menus offered will be quite broad, noting quite well for allergies. Everything just seems to be very... pink. Even well-cooked meat and dark chocolate delicacies has been given a splash of decorative color in favor of the holiday. Is that candy on the top? Oh well. It doesn't look like a "CALL ME XOXO" heart will really kill you.
Masks will be difficult to take off until at least one course of food has been consumed. It seems like someone wants you to enjoy the spirit of your "blind date"!
A NOTE: The masks will block both identity AND, in some cases, a person's gender, until they are removed. Gender identification will be up to the players!
✗ At 6:30, the club is opened for everyone else. Feel free to adventure up to the bar or glance around at the couples. They might be a little unrecognizable, what, with those strange masks on. They look so familiar, but you just can't place who is who. Oh well. Mingle a bit and solve the mystery with those around you! Have a drink. Talk about your love life or lack thereof. A bartender is always there to lend you an ear.
✗ At 7:00, the tables are cleared, the lighting is dimmed down, music is turned up, and the center of the club becomes a dance floor! Plush red couches line the edges for those that have had a rough night, and small tables of chocolates, sweets, heart-shaped h'orderves and various colors of roses dot the area. Locals are working alongside the host club and maid cafe to make sure things are kept in stock. No getting close to the bar if you're under-aged or we may just have to end your evening right here and now!

Being that they're both novices to ballroom dancing, they move at a similar pace and hesitation, which oddly seems to work out. At least they aren't stepping on each others toes, or tripping.
She lets out a giggle as they start to get into things.]
no subject
Serph has had a little practice before, but ballroom dancing comes to him with an ease that does not happen with singing. When Sera giggles, Serph gives her a small smile.
Dancing with her feels right in a way that he doesn't quite understand.]
no subject
I've always wanted to dance with a prince.
[She giggles.]
no subject
Does this make you a princess?
no subject
She blushes at the question, looking shyly at the floor at their feet before meeting his gaze again.]
I'm not really a princess. I...
[Her face turns even pinker, and she laughs shyly.]
I always wished I could be one, though.
no subject
What makes you not a princess?
no subject
Well, princesses are daughters of queens and kings, and live in big castles. Princes come from other kingdoms to meet the princess, and the princess gets to pick a prince that she likes to marry.
But sometimes, a peasant girl will get rescued by a prince. And if the prince decides to marry her, she'll become a princess too.
[The second method always seemed the only way to escape her life. But who would find her? She was like Rapunzel, trapped with no means of leaving.]
no subject
Why do you wish to be a princess?
no subject
...Because they live happily ever after.
no subject
Princesses aren't the only ones who can live happily ever after.
no subject
[The way things are going back home, she's convinced it just isn't very likely.]
The only time it happens is in fairy tales.
no subject
Princesses are still people.
[He thinks of Zelda, and that dream.]
They keep walking towards a life where they can live happily.
