3 Kazoo - Adult Ballroom Social and Epic Kids' Game Night

Who: Everyone
Where: Wardrobe, Gym Car, Music Car, Games Car
When: 3 Kazoo, Evening
What: The much-awaited-and-discussed Adult Ballroom Social (and children's side event)
Warnings: None

You've seen the flyers. You've heard the announcements. You've ordered additional party reinforcements if you wanted them. Some of you have even helped her to prepare. And now it's finally here - the Adult Ballroom Social that she's been planning these many, many week-and-a-half.

But you wouldn't know it only took that long to throw it together. She's gone all out for this one. Including the wardrobe that's been opened up, there are four cars that have been set aside for tonight. The main ballroom floor is in the non-training gym, which has been cleared and decorated for the occasion. The music is being piped in from the music car, where it's still playing for those who would prefer a more intimate and private setting. Meanwhile, the game room has been set out for the kids who would otherwise be left out of this adult and near-adult event.

The train throws open the wardrobe a couple hours before the event starts. It's full of formal clothes for all sizes, species, and genders from all manner of different worlds.

Some of it might look…a little weird. But weird or normal, you will find something to wear.

Or perhaps you've picked out your clothes in advance already and are working on putting them on in your own room. Either way, we bet you look pretty. Come have a look, won't we?

The ballgame gym has been cleared of all loose sporting equipment and debris, and decorated with tasteful ribbons and other miscellany. Two bluetooth speakers have been set up next to Cassie's SCA device, linked to the music car jukebox with a fine playlist full of slow jams and classics.

The dance floor is a clearly delineated section of the room, with plenty of room for multiple couples to stand abreast dancing. All couples are welcome.

On the other side of the ballroom is a table, stocked with adult beverages and small plates of polite finger food. Here any wallflowers, singletons, or couples who just aren't dancing at the moment can congregate and talk amongst themselves.

Well, you asked for it, you got it. The pairings and invitations are announced on a flyer taped to the door of the gym car, as well as a very brief text ICP announcement.

Cassie's not too nervous about most of these pairings. But she certainly does have apologies on offer for the person who ended up with a certain blue someone.

It's less decorated than the main ballroom, but the music is still playing here on the first floor of the music car. There's plenty of space, too, for those who want a setting that's a little quieter, less crowded, and more intimate. Or for anyone who feels like picking up a guitar and playing something.

Because it wouldn't be fair to leave the kids out, the gaming car has been set up for the best kids' game night possible. Board games, card games, and video games have all been set up in different corners of the room, with a truly epic snack and sweet drink spread set out for all to enjoy.

Anyone who'd care to chaperone, or just likes games and kids, is equally welcome here.
