Oo- I love Masquerade parties!!

*trades her normal mask for a different, slightly more ornate one*

Perfecto!

*sings quietly to herself, floating around the large ball room happily* Masquerade! Paper faces on parade! Masquerade- hide your face so the world can never find you...

*walks in, wearing a black dress that has a turleneck collar, with a tank top cut on the sleeves, that goes down to her anckles, her feet hidden, with her normal ninja mask on, covering her features up to her nose. However, the mask is embrodered with lots of beads now, and silvery and gold thread. * Ello all!

*whispers, echoing endlessly, reverberating against the walls until the volume of its voice is almost beyond pain*

*levels a glittering stare against the attendants of the Masquerade* I am the mask.

*drifts away, fading suddenly*

*comes in dressed as the Mask of the Red Death- it is so horrible and fiendish, and it communicates through its expression so much about the horrors of painful, drawn-out death, that it is best nobody describes its bloodstained, mournful, desperate eyes or its life-thirsty, decomposing, agonizing lips, to name a few features*

Comes in on a litter carried by four of his statue-servants. He's wearing gold-embroidered robe and a mask decorated with tarot cards all around like a mane.

*descends the stairs in a red backless gown, embroidered with thousands of perfectly cut diamonds. Her hair spilling in long tendril curls down over her shoulders, a plain black mask over the top half of her face.*

Welcome to the Ball! Please help yourself to the refreshments, remember that the judges move among you and will be observing you...

This may well be a scene in my latest IF tale and i would love to see what you have to say to each other and how you interact....

Algy... lovin' it...

*Walks over to the table, watching what little dancing there is with amusement. * No one's falling down. . .better not go out there myself or someone will. *picks up a little cookie and glances around. Vanishes for a moment, and comes back a second later brushing crumbs off her dress. The ninja mask firmly in place, her bottom half of her facial features remaining unseen, as they always have. *

*goes over to the table and tries to eat a piece of cake. Is shocked to find that there is no mouth on the Bob-suit. Pops off to the toilet and comes back with a large hole cut into the suit for a mouth*

*is muttering* Stupid Chinaren Inc...

*Looks out into the dance floor. He sees someone stumble and chuckles a little. Probably drunk. He gets off the litter and goes up to the host. He bows a dramatic, somewhat teasing bow.*

Care to dance?

*Without waiting for a response, he whisks her onto the dance into a brisk waltz. He's a good dancer and the couple seems to fly across the floor. Finally, when the waltz ends, he deposits NeNe where she was and conjurs up a drink for her. He bows again.*

Thank you for the dance. It's a wonderful party.

*He goes to try Lordy's cake. He takes one bite and promptly incinerates it. He sighs. There's peices of Lordy's victims in the cake.... again.*

*takes off the joint costume* wouldn't be appropriate for kids to see... *puts on his 18th-century-style trenchcoat and holsters his rapier proudly*

Enters with green short dress, that looks poofy at the end and a golden tint to it. No straps. Wearing her birdlike mask. With colourful feathers. Her hair in curls, green make-up, not that anyone can see it. With the number 27 written at the back of her mask. Yeay!. (can't remember my masarde number, but It's got the number at the back.) "Hello! hehe"

Ohh-hoh-hohhh, a competition is it? And here's me just wearing a borrowed mask...

I wonder how you work this thing... *taps mask tentatively*

*looks at the piece of cake she was holding*

Are you sure, Leggy? Thank goodness I'd not eaten any yet.

*puts the cake carefully back on the plate*

Care to dance?

Sashays in, curls up on an empty settee and looks around in amusement.

"Cats don't need masks. We're mysterious in nature."

Lifts a paw to showcase a shiny band around the ankle.

"Oooh yeah. Skitty has bling now! Heeh heeh."

Laughs to herself and settles in to watch the show.

*picks skitty up and forces her to take part*

If you don't I'll take away your bling.

*Arrives in the guise of a unicorn with a white coat and gilded horn, gilded hooves striking the floor with the sound of bells. For who would ever expect an assassin in the guise of total innocence?*

"Where are the cookies?"

*PINK!!! *falls on floor laughing

*finds herself deposited back at the base of the staircase after a turn around the floor with Al. Watches in some shock as he incinerates the cake but not losing a single hostess stride orders the servants to bring through some more*

'Why hello Unicorn! What a pleasant surprise! Please keep away from some of the rougher elements - they may fancy that horn for themselves - it would be worth a pretty penny or two in the Marketplace.'

*seemingly floats across the floor in time to the band, an imported set from AS, twirling and laughing*

That Cake as perfectly healthy I'll have you know. It just had added protein, purely in order to...keep people happy. Also, it was a lie.

*Shows up in a sequined black dress (http://www.flickr.com/photos/missvespasian/2389205826/)
with red shoes and a devil's horn headband. Her wings are dyed a matching red and she's carrying a plastic pitchfork.*

Sorry I'm late...oh, cake!

*Reasoner walks in...fashionably late...in a dark red suit of kinds. The dull red boots come to just below his knees, with two straps at the the top and two straps at his foot, they have intricate black designs running top to bottom. The red pants are baggy and tucked into the boots, but most of the pants are covered. A red robe that stop at the knees, the sides and forearm parts of the sleeves are detailed with a teal background and red tribal markings. The front is crested with a red steel engraved with a coal black metal design. A pair of red feathered wings extended from his back, they looked more demonic, shaped like an N. A small devils tail dragged slightly on the floor, the tip made of metal. The collar on his robes had spikes shaped like arrowheads sticking up, then the front bottom of it would curve down more than in the back. His mask is an off-setting white compared to the rest of his outfit, with red vinyl detail bordering the outside...on the cheeks there are teal crosses interlaced with black crisscrossing patterns.*

**Is completely sober walking in**

Well, I came in sober, so I guess this was important. I meant to be late by the way...

*finds a place to sit down and looks for someone to dance with, since it is a fun thing to do*

I think I might of overdid my costume....just a little

*Trots quietly over to the cake and taps it with her horn, seemingly purifying a slice, then gulps it down.*

I'd still rather have the cookies.

*trots off in search of some*

*Looking for drinks somewhere* Any drinks here? *looks around room* I'm glad I'm not having trouble posting anymore... thanks to whomever fixed the problem! Maybe it was the miRC program-virus (I think the thing replicates) anyway back to the party! Lets make a record for the longest party ever.

Cookies. Cake. Yummy!

*Stuffs his own face full of cake and victims*
