AMP GROUP 1
Characters: Narcissa & Lucius, Blaise & Padma, Su & Stewart, Malcolm & Marietta, Alex & Hannah, Millicent & Roger, Steve & Rose, Vincent & Mandy, Thomas & Angelina, Marcus & Cho, Adrian & Natalie, Tavish & Emma
Setting: Various rooms at the Malfoy Manor, includnig the formal sitting room, formal dining room, formal ball/banquet room, a large/lavish guest room for changing into the formal attire, and of course bathrooms when needed. They did not go near the wing of the house that Draco is sick in bed, nor did they go anywhere near Narcissa & Lucius' wing of the manor, either. There was no tour given, there was only the select rooms available, and all others were locked with charms and wards.
Summary: Etiquitte Lessons, Lunch, Tea, Questions, Dinner, Dancing, Socialising... it was a long day. Feel free to thread or OOC discuss in this post alike!
Truth be told, Narcissa was not looking forward to this day anymore than those who would have to attend. Their mothers ought to have taught them proper manners and behaviours, it should not be up to her to do so. She knew that by opening up the manor to the members of the AMP, she will be facing the dismay and anger they have towards the programme, but knowing this would help her against feeling as if they were angry at her personally. She had little control over it, and thus, their anger would be misdirected had they sent it towards her. The day would begin with a series of etiquette courses. Learning about the way to set a table, properly receive guests, giving and receiving gifts, sending and replying to invitations, proper posture, how to be in control of body language, etc... this was a crash course, and everything young girls usually learn in the course of a year, Narcissa covered in one day. Narcissa did not allow the girls much time to ask questions at this point, but kept them on task and focused to the best of her ability. They were served a high class lunch, and had about a half an hour to socialise amongst themselves after lunch. The tea was held in the sitting room, and was held as a formal tea, though the differences of the formal and informal teas were discussed as well. After the tea was served and as they were sitting there, Narcissa then opened up the room for questions about anything they'd discussed so far or the AMP programme in general. Once the tea and questions was finished, she sent the girls up to one of the large guest rooms where their formal wear was waiting so the girls could change and then have their professional makeovers as a treat. The dinner that followed was a formal seven course meal, where polite and proper conversation was held at all times, and questions about the AMP at this point were not answered, as politics is not polite or proper discussion at a formal dinner. Anyone who was acting out, Narcissa did use silencing charms, and anyone slouching at the table found themselves held up as if by an invisible string, so that slouching was not possible. Immediately after dinner, they were led to a formal ball room for music, dancing, and socialising. It is this point in time that anyone wishing to speak to Narcissa Malfoy one on one regarding what they had discussed during the day, the programme, or anything else, could politely pull her aside and they would discuss. Other than that, Narcissa would make her way around the room pointing out, correcting, and helping the young members of society realise what is or isn't proper behaviours. When she wasn't doing this, however, Narcissa would be spending the evening at the side of her husband. The evening came to a close just before the curfews of the AMP members, and Narcissa stood at the floo bidding goodnight to everyone before they left. |
