Event: Eiko's Birthday Ball

Characters: OPEN to all party guests
Progress: Ongoing
Summary: A big party for a small girl. Yep, it's Eiko's birthday and she's having a ball.
Location: Lindblum Grand Castle
Date: March 21st, 1804
Warnings: N/A so far

Nobody could say that Regent Cid wasn't generous when it came to his adopted daughter, Eiko. In fact, some said that he was too indulgent. But on this, the evening of Eiko's tenth birthday, the citizens of Lindblum were ready and eager to celebrate. A free ball! Free drinks, free food, and a free pass into Lindblum Grand Castle. Many had failed to acquire tickets in time and were disappointed, but the lucky few piled eagerly into the castle.

Security was tight, and every single guest was checked by the guards before being allowed to enter. Once inside, they would find a wide and sumptuously decorated ballroom. A small group of musicians played slow and ambient music, while the party guests swayed across the floor dressed in all their finery. What could only be described as a flock of moogles flew or scurried around the room, offering glasses of champagne and various sweet treats. Regent Cid himself sat on a grand throne at the head of the room, nodding graciously at the guests who came to pay their respects. 

The ball was already in full swing, and the party would go on for a long while yet.

[ooc: Don't worry if you didn't comment to Regent Cid's earlier post requesting tickets. Handwaving is just fine if you want to hop in. It's party style - go tag and mingle! Thread jumping and ninja tagging is encouraged.]

[ooc: Eiko has made a very loud announcement about a celebrity couple's engagement. Feel free to overhear, react or congratulate.]

Mjrn startled a little at the kiss to her hand but followed, glad that the current dance didn't seem to complicated."I must warn, I have not had extensive experience. I will try to learn, but I may stumble."

Blank gave Mjrn a reassurng smile as he rested one hand on her back. "Mjrn, it doesn't matter whether you're good or not, it's whether you have fun or not that matters most. Besides, if you stumble, I'll catch you."

Mjrn straightened, a small smile forming as she told herself silently to relax. She had suggested the dance, after all, and it wouldn't do to let self-consciousness about her lack of experience mar the moment. "Very well. I have faith in you."

Blank couldn't keep the smile off his face as he danced with Mjrn, watching her face, loosing himself in her eyes.
