Upon entering Sector 4, the very large tent that stands framed by the beach is quickly noticeable. Closer, one can see colors dancing upon the white sheets, like opalesque spires under the moving onyx sky. As you enter one of the wings of the tents, grass give way to wooden flooring, and chains of white blossoms and gold ribbons line the sides. The open dance floor in the center bids one to look up to whimsical white-gold lamps, balls of light dancing in seas of violet, blue, green and pink organza. The fabrics fall down pillars adorned with leaves and flowers. Tables set in white and gold with jewel toned flowers sit at the four wings surrounding the dance floor.

... but it is far too early to take a seat. Smile and greet your fellow attendee, take the hand of a friend, and dance to the music.

Welcome to Marina Academy's First Promenade!


There are large tables with finger foods and punch (not spiked -- save it for the after-party!), and very little space near the walls (sorry, wallflowers! You won't get away so easily. )  After a large number of people are gathered together, Jeanne stands up on the small stage set to the side of the dance floor and taps on the microphone to get everyone's attention...

+ Jeanne's greeting speech!

[ The feed clicks on showing Jennifer fluffing up a flower arrangement she just put together. ]

That should do it...

[ stepping back to admire the handiwork before shrugging ] We have a few leftover flowers here and it'd be a shame to let them go to waste! If you want me to make a corsage or set aside some flowers for your hair I'd be happy to do so. Just let me know what colors you'll be wearing!

[ unabashed smile ]

Of course, if you're not going to the prom that doesn't mean you can't have a vase of flowers for your windowsill either. Flowers can always brighten up a room!

[Backdated to mid afternoon]

[Video / Filtered to Tamaki Suoh]

Ah, hello. I'm sorry if this is sudden, but I was hoping you might be able to help me with something. Alto asked me to the prom, and I'm not sure what to do to get ready. Usually I have people to help me with this stuff. Um, you seem like you'd be good with stuff like that... [She trails off, looking a little embarrassed.]

I'd really appreciate any assistance! Thank you for your time.

[A little bit after her message to Tamaki, Ranka makes her way to Sector Five, aiming to go to the store. She has a lot on her mind, however, so she's a little distracted. Wrong turn get! It takes another block or two for her to realize she's not in the right place before she gives a sigh. This is what she gets for not paying attention. On goes the communicator.]

It's not as bad here as I thought it might be. I mean, it still takes some adjusting and I miss my friends a lot, but it could be worse. There are some really nice people here, too. [She lets out a little hum.]

I have a question for anyone who'd want to answer. I've been wondering about the different worlds and, I want to know what people did back home. What was your job or hobby? Can you still do it here? I apologize if this is out of the blue. A little conversation is something I'd like right now.

[Come distract her as she attempts to find her way around.]

[ The days have passed rather quickly for Nathan as he made his adjustment to Marina. After his stunt on the building his first day, he's settled down quite a lot. Sure, there's been a few people he's spoken to, but Nathan isn't used to having this much technology at his disposal. This isn't like Twitter or any of those things he has to punch into his crap mobile. It's time to do something. ]

Alright, can we get off the prom wank?

Who wants ta go mansion-hunting with me?



[ Private : Filtered to Miwako ]

[ He licks his hands and checks his reflection quickly in the reflective surface of a nearby shop, mussing his hair to something a little more presentable before turning the private setting on the feed. Hello, Miss Sex Crime. You're going to the prom with me! Chicks dig confidence, right? ]

Hey Miwako, didja get that iPod off Acu-manners?

[ Dammit, Nathan. ]

[Welcome back to a picture of Flynn's face. Only he's got a better idea how the enchanted box works, and his brows are knit. And he happens to be sitting on the floor.] Okay, so I get that the gesture's nice and sweet and yadda yadda yadda—but whoever's laying out the baskets around here is a little bit late. [Holding up cookies. Free? Just like that?] How do I even know any of this is still good? And what's the catch?

… I don't know about you, but I've heard the story of the old lady and the poison apples oooone too many times. [Yep, spinning an apple in the air before dunking it back into the basket.] And can't you deliver these in person? It's creepy waking up and bam there's a basket.

Also, Rapunzel.

Rapunzel.

Can you tell me why I happened to wake up in your closet this morning? Maybe People Who Live in Towers do this sort of thing all the time, but I gotta say… it's not easy on the neck. [Rubbing it.] I think I'm going to be stiff all day, …ow. Just leave me on the floor or y'know, wake me up. How did you even manage to get me in there? And why did you do it?
