Summary: The party you've all been waiting for: the Grand Ball of Alexandria!
Location: Palace Alexandria
Date: June 21st, 1803
Warnings: TBA. Eventually, Violence.

For weeks, the palace had been abuzz with activity; even more so than usual. On top of the usual hustle and bustle of daily life, there were the extensive preparations to be done for the festival, and this, the grand finale. The palace's largest ballroom had been decorated from floor to ceiling, wall to wall. Long elaborate draperies of silk and chiffon in white and cream, the stairs lined in a rich, crimson carpeting. Gold and silver everywhere, framing the large windows and the door opening out to the courtyard. A warm summer evening, with the roses in full bloom. Flowers adorned every table, column, and doorway. It wasn't just the ballroom that had been decorated, however; the entire palace was decked in regalia, the staff having obviously anticipated the crowd to be much larger than usual.

All around the palace, inside and out, the guard was on high alert. Every guest was greeted, checked, and in the case of the higher-ranked, announced to the company at large. The sun had not quite set, and already the ballroom was half full; nobles and low-born alike, natives and foreigners, all dressed in their best. The guest of honor had yet to make her appearance, but no one seemed to be fussed by the fact.

But the night was young, and there was bound to plenty of seeing and being seen before the night was over.

Update: A fist fight broke out on page two. Feel free to ninja in to spectate, generally comment or gasp, or just read it and have a laugh. Appropriate authority figures... Squall, Steiner, etc may need to step in.

"Brother look silly in this shirt, but Brother wear it for Yuna!"

Even though he realizes Yuna will show up with Tidus and ignore him the entire night, he can't help but want to look nice for her anyway.

Looking down at his shirt, he shakes his head before responding to the woman, "You not look silly though, you look nice in green."

"Thank you!" Rydia smiled, ever grateful for another compliment. "I always wear green. And--Yuna, the Summoner from Spira? She's coming? Oh, good. I'd like to meet her again, too."

Brother lowered his head, looking extremely dejected.

"Brother really not know. She not talk to Brother much anymore."

Rydia winced, realizing what her innocent comment had done. "Oh! I'm sorry. I didn't mean to provoke any painful thoughts. Maybe you'll be able to talk to should she arrive?"

"I will just no think about Yuna anymore today."

He quickly tried to shake her out of his head. He did manage to shake her out of his head, but only by replacing her with dizziness.

His headed bobbed slightly as he tried to focus on Rydia, "Brother ready to have fun!"
