felicity abanon meyers
felicity stumbled about the room, trying to occupy herself as the time to the dance drained more quickly than she would have liked. she had woken up early that morning to find a cleanly wrapped package beside her bed, inside a soft blue lace dress, that she knew her parents had sent. she now wore her new dress, and she should have felt amazing. but that certainly wasn't the case. with the busy day she had had thus far, being ushered left and right for preparations, she still hadn't found a date. internally, she considered asking Ian, but she couldn't find him, let alone work up the nerve to do so. so that brought her to where she was now, pacing obliviously. she was biting her lip hard enough to inflict pain, but she couldn't feel it, she was too busy worrying about being the one loser who couldn't find a date.

Rowan rolled over in the infirmary sheets, his arm almost fully healed from the night of the fire as he stood up and slugged out of bed. Nobody else was in the room, which changed his shuffle to a sprint across the halls to the Slytherin dorm. He knew Pepper wouldn't be in here, so he quickly changed into the tux and breathed out as it tightened around his chest. He was muscular, of course- since he had carried both Pepper and helped Monroe sort of out of the fire- but that didn't mean the grey overcoat wasn't digging into his flesh. Breathing in again, he placed the bowtie and matching pants on, along with his mask, making his appearance much more promising and handsome. Shrugging at himself in the mirror, he combed his hair back and gelled it in place before making his way to the Dining Hall. Then he saw her- Pepper's gorgeous face illuminating from everyone else's like a ray of sunshine, her beautiful dress only making her look even better. He grinned at her before stepping forwards slowly and cupping her hand in his. 'You look beautiful." He murmured, remembering he'd said it before but shaking it away before kissing the top of her head warmly.

Phyllis looked down at herself, sitting among other people that were participating in the Founders Tournaments, her probably being one of the only girls who didn't have a date. Sighing out slowly, she thought about Clark and couldn't help but smile gently at the thought of him and twirled a strand of her now curled hair. Her appearance was quite amazing, if she didn't say so herself. She was wearing a large yellow gown, with sparkles lined along the ends and her shoulders. Her mask was matching, the long feather making it appear as if made designed especially for her. Her muggle mother had designed for her, she made clothing items for people like the president and celebrities. She should have been happy to rich, but she felt much better at Hogwarts. Holding her mask tightly, her knuckles turning white as well, her breath caught in her throat as she realized she was holding tightly onto her gown. Releasing herself, she looked around at the others. They were stiff as well, wondering what the first task would be in the games. But she wasn't going to lose- the Hufflepuff's would reclaim their victory. Breathing out slowly, she wondered if her makeup would drip if she started shaking. Forcing herself not to, she breathed out before placing her head in her palms gently.

Here's Rowan's attire again if anyone needs a visual reminder :3

The fiery and vivaciously redheaded girl appeared behind the dining hall with the other competitors on time. She entered in rather shyly, even a bit shy for a Gryffindor, unsure of what the others would think. Taking a deep breath, she mustered up the courage to gracefully walk in, her dress flowing with her beautifully.

Rowan had chosen a less modern look. It was more of a Great Gatsby look in all honesty. Her entire attire consisted of white and black. Her dress was a gentle sweetheart ballgown, strapless and elegant. The top of the dress was made of a white, satin-like material that came to her hip on her left, and continued on down to her right till her knees, curving upwards to the left bound of the white satin. Then, from her left of the white satin to her right, was a black flowery vine pattern made of lace, that was dense from it's beginning point at the middle of her left side that eventually broadened out and ended before it reached her right side. mainly traveling along the slope of the bottom of the satin, and up to the sweetheart neckline. Beneath the white satin was the rest of the ballgown skirt, black and made with tulle that was neatly fluffed.

Onto more of her attire; she wore black high heels, which were a pain but were necessary to keep the dress from touching the ground too much. Then there was the gloves; black satin gloves with white tops that ended at her elbows. Upon her neck was a black flower pattern made of lace that had a pearl that hung from the grey chain, right beneath a leaf made of the black lace. No to mention the most important element; the mask. This was a masquerade ball after all, wasn't it? The mask was made of black mental, and was very elegant and extravagant. Pearls lines the upper cut of the eye holes, like eyebrows, growing in size towards the middle while growing smaller towards the ends.

Now, as for the rest of her, she wore a dulled, red lipstick, that could be thought of as a Christmas red lipstick. Against the rest of her, her lips stood out quite a bit, besides maybe from her red hair. She wore black eyeliner on her inner eyelids, mascara, and an almost dramatic smokey champagne eye shadow look. The brown in her eye shadow brought out the blue in her eyes. For her hair, she had put it up into a high simple up-do that had some small, short to medium length locks of hair falling out, and those that did she had made into loose curls.

Sighing softly, Rowan smiled gently to the girl who had just complimented her. "Thank you. You look beautiful as well," she replied politely in her sweet British accent. Despite the sweet, elegant looked she was giving on the outside, on the inside, she was honestly freaking out a bit. She still had no date to dance with. Honestly Rowan had thought a guy would of asked her but they didn't. Glancing around, she looked to see if maybe she could possibly, let's say, 'steal' someone for the leading dance. But besides that trouble, the sixteen year old red head felt amazing at the moment, red lipstick, a beautiful dress, and a stunning mask. Her heart fluttered a bit even though it had no loved one to stir it.

Timothy fiddled with his bow tie, it feeling too tight but not tight enough. He had to get one of the other boys to use a spell to do it for him, it making him a bit sheepish at another male being so close to him. His mask was fit on his face, it having been charmed the way that most other people had done. He felt his stomach twisting nervously and it was almost too difficult to tell who was who behind all the masks. While they still hadn't put the charms on, the masks seemed to hide them pretty well.

Atticus Crowley
• Male • 18 • Slytherin • Calm • With Competitors • Tagged:Skylar • Beater •

Atticus fixed his tie and charmed his mask, walking into the back room with all the other competitors and he smiled softly as he spotted Skylar, walking up beside her and smiling softly. "Hey." he breathed out softly, letting his arm come up for the girl to take if she'd like to. He smiled and let his eyes run over her dress and mask and his smile went a bit wider. "You look incredible." he murmured, having ducked down a bit so that he could speak to her alone.

(Figure I'll leave Skylar and Atticus alone ;) Plus Rowan and Timothy need to get together any ways xP)

Rowan watched as a boy approached the girl. Forcing herself to not nibble away at her lipstick, Rowan turned and left the two, decided it was a night for couples and dates after all.Then again, she didn't have a date still. Quickly, her eyes shot around the group of people that had gathered with the competitors behind the dining hall. Her striking blue eyes against the black mask and make up landed on a boy (Timothy). Who he was and if he wasn't even suppose to be here didn't matter to her at the moment. Hastily, she 'tapped' her way over to him in her heels.

Taking a deep breath, she came up behind him, tapping his shoulder gently. "Um, hi. Sorry to bother you.. But would you, if you're available, take the first dance with me? I sort of never did acquire a partner," she explained politely, wringing her gloved hands a bit, feeling the fabric heat up from the friction she was causing.

ＭＯＲＧＡＮＨＥＹＤＥＮＣＬＥＭＩＮＴＩＮＥ

did he have a nice night of sleep? there hadn't been any dreams, no nightmares, just blackness. that's how his nights normally were. boring, sleepless, and uneventful. when one had nothing but blackness in their head, it was a moment of still being awake yet nodding off. yes, he had asked a girl to the ball. yes, she was from a different house and possibly had no crush on him whatsoever, and yes he was still planning on going. that morning he "woke up" felt like another day. hufflepuff boys were tripping over themselves, trying to get their pants while buttoning shirts. some shouted indescribable words while wishing their male competitor good luck. heyden stayed on his bed, shifting over to enjoy the amusement of hurrying dudes. they were all so....giddy with excitement - jittery at the least and crying at the most. yes, one hufflepuff was crying because he could not find his mask. by laying here was he keeping shaylene? or was she busy with someone else? all he was doing was taking her to the ball and promising they'd hang out to watch competitors fail. almost feeling guilty, the blond threw the covers off himself and smiled at his fellow housemates. "boys, tonight is the night of wonderment. you will dance with a girl or boy whomever you chose. tonight if a night to make fools of ourselves and awkwardly greet the person you danced with in the corridors. let's get to it." he clapped his hands, rising from the bed.

heyden helped ease the fifth years, finding "lost" items and giving hair advice. he also flicked the sixth years for making sexist comments about their dates. the crying seventh year, a wizard known for his perfect penmanship, found his mask with the help of the energetic seventeen year old. soon only a few people were left in the tower. one was a fifth year, desperately trying to get his breath to smell minty. the other two were sixth years, whispering to one another and nodding in determination. while they whispered, heyden changed into his own outfit. the upper half of his get up consisted of a slight blue shirt, black bow tie, pink jacket, and black and white checkered handkerchief coming from his left pocket. the bottom half were more of a peach colored but looked like pink kind of casual pants accompanied by white shoes. before putting on his mask (half pink, half musical notes, bottom and top gold with silver weaved lining) he combed his hair for ten minutes, trying to get it to do what he wanted. soon he gave up, letting the strands stand or fall naturally upon his head. then he finished the outfit with the mask. frowning deeply at the ground, heyden sighed. man, he didn't have a cape. that would have been so cool. he was totally the type of dude to go on and wear a cape. disappointment sucked, but he could deal with it.

heyden left the hufflepuff room, the frown turning into a smile when he realized where his house was located near. the great hall! and with the great hall came food! he walked by the competitors, grinning at them and wishing some luck (others he wished to fail) before sitting at his own table. mask or no mask, heyden would eat! his plate was piled with food, only satisfying a growing sixteen year old. but heyden was growing seventeen year old dude. he was sure after this plate he would need another. by this time, heyden was six foot. he knew by the age of twenty, he would grow another four inches. this didn't mean he would be as tall as antonio, for the dude was only at his peak. he figured another five inches for the ravenclaw. but when would he ever see him again? so the height competition didn't matter.

Timothy looked over at the girl, his heart thumping a bit out of his chest and instead of speaking he nodded. Somebody actually wanted to dance with him. His vision was fairly obscured by his mask and he shifted it again, his eyes flickering around the room, eager for them to open the doors so he could sweep the lovely lady off her feet. He shifted himself and looked back towards the girl, biting his lip softly and letting himself stand a tad bit closer.

Monroe raised an eyebrow at him. Then, he asked her. The Hufflepuff's eyes widened, and then a smile popped up. "Yes! Yes I do!" she said in a squeaky tone, and sat up from her bed to hug him, but gasped in pain as her elbow stung with pain. Her eyes watered, and she leaned back. "I mean- yeah." she said, trying to make her voice sound calm, although it came out squeaky.

Monroe was thinking to herself: stupid stupid stupid. She made another smile and watched him, thinking about what he said. Had he really said that guys where jealous of her, and that her features where to die for? This is to good to be true. she thought.

Pepper gasped as she fell out of her bed. Remembering the ball was today and that she'd get her first challenge, the strawberry blonde rushed round trying to get ready without waking anyone. Her dress and mask were hanging on the side in a clothes bag that her parents had sent her a few days before. Brushing her freshly cleaned hair, she grabbed the hair permmer and began to style her hair. Then adding a small amount of her mother hair gel to it, she managed to style it so that it stayed were it was; hung over her left shoulder. She then changed into her dress. Sitting on her bed, Pepper took out a small jewellery box which contained her grandmother blue topaz tear necklace. She put it on and reached for her shoes. Once ready, the blond grabbed her matching blue and white mask before heading out of the dorms and towards the great hall. She reached there before the others and only the other seven competitors where there. She stood near the far left and waited for her date. She was a little worried that he might not turn up. As time went on she became more and more worried that he wouldn't show up in time but just then she heard a familiar voice. Her heart thudded in her chest as she turned to see the handsome figure that was her date. Sure he was dressed smartly and had his mask on but she knew it was still him. She smiled softly. At his words she blushed deeply. Her cloudy grey eyes were soft and warming. "I was beginning to think I'd have to dance on my own. Competitors open the ball after all." She said still smiling and then commented on his tux. "Very handsome." She said running a hand over his collar. Her injured arm was still in a sling but the burns were no where to be seen as she'd covered them in a cream which hid the redness.

Skylar jumped a little when she felt an arm wrap around her. Blue eyes lit up when they landed on Atticus. A rosy blush covered her cheeks when he called her incredible. "T...thank you." She said softly, running her hands over the soft fabric of her navy dress. It hugged her showing off her curves, and then trumpet flared out at her feet. Her diamond choker glittered in the firelight, and the warm light cast a glow across her skin. The diamond flower pins in her hair sparkled against her hair. "You look very handsome." She said with a smile running her eyes over him. He was wearing a green tie, how very Slytherin of him, but then again she was wearing navy. It wasnt her fault she just happened to look good in her house color.
