WHAT THIS IS

This is a player-run event that is open to everyone! It's a charity ball with a Christmas theme, thrown by Yoosung's family's charity organization Kim Fundraising Association, which will be gathering funds tonight to help with rebuilding and rehoming efforts for the destruction caused by the dinosaurs in August (though they're calling it destruction from a storm).

It takes place in Kaisou Royal Hotel, a large and ostentatious building within Kaisou's Entertainment District. Those entering should be wearing something at least attempting to be formal (the rules are lax for Librans) and need to show the presence of the Libra app on their phone in order to enter (unless they're part of the socialite elite who got formal invitations anyway).

THINGS TO DO

December 17th, 6pm. Tonight, the hotel is decorated richly with golds and greens and reds, poinsettias and lilies, as well as a large Christmas tree in the lobby with a donation lock box in front of it, which a guard is keeping an eye on.

There is valet parking and even a red carpet entrance, even if there aren't a million photographers lined up to catch a celebrity snapshot. It's meant to make those invited feel special!

THE BALLROOM

The ballroom is quite possibly the largest many of the Librans have seen, with chandeliers and a large upside down decorated Christmas tree hanging down from the center. There is a second story balcony that surrounds the perimeter of the ballroom, where people can go to step away from the immediate social activities and look down upon the dancefloor and the stage where a live classical band plays for part of the night. Later in the night there will be a DJ playing more modern music.

FOOD & DRINK

Surrounding the dancefloor are tables of food both savory and sweet, and tables and chairs for people to sit and eat. The punch and ice water are also located here, while the open bar is in the lobby and serves all sorts of liquor as well as non-alcoholic sodas. Waiters will also be coming around with champagne glasses throughout the night.

THE GARDENS

If one wishes to truly take a step away from the bustle and noise, there are large doors set off the ballroom that exit into a winter wonderland garden. It's lit by sparse lanterns but mostly trails of individual candles with flickering flames marking out the paths in the snow. There are tall hedges and trees decorated with fairy lights, as well as a large gazebo. One may find sprigs of both mistletoe and mistlefoe here.

[ Luisa can't help a small laugh. ] I guess that's true. It was also a little hard to really...talk to people sometimes.

[ Especially with how busy she always was.

She seems to at least consider the suggestion a moment, though she can't help but frown a little. ] I don't know. I've never really...danced like this before. [ She gestures to the people on the dance floor dancing some kind of waltz. ]

[She nods, understanding that. It's also a very much Luisa thing to have all the strength and boldness of a hurricane, and yet...]

[Well, there's only one solution to this and it involves her taking initiative. Not that she's any better at this, but...]

Then let's give it a try?
