Because we clearly need something to get rid of all the drama

[There's music echoing in the halls and if you follow it, it would take you here:]

[Just...sort of watching all of the chaos from behind his own mask (minus the flower). He's never been in something like this and tugs at his suit.]

[salvationsnox]

Not used to it? [Appears somewhere behind him]

[mutedpleasure]

[Glances over his shoulder at him.]

The suit? No.

[salvationsnox]

You look nice in it. [Readjusts his tie and watching the people dance]

[mutedpleasures]

I feel...out of place.

[Moving back to stand by Atticus.]

What is the purpose of these things?

[salvationsnox]

It's called a masquerade party. It's merely for fun.

[mutedpleasure]

For fun. [Tugging at his tie.] They don't feel fun.

[salvationsnox]

You're just not used to wearing suits.

[mutedpleasure]

What need would a gypsy have for a suit like this?

[salvationsnox]

Nothing, probably. But it certainly is a relief to see everyone else having fun.

[mutedpleasure]

[Sighs silently and looks out at the crowd.]

I suppose, especially after everything that's happened.

[salvationsnox]

[He nods, watching the people dance. Well, until one of them comes and drags Atty off to dance.]

[mutedpleasure]

[H-hey! Wait a minute! ;; I was talking to my friend.

Just...awkwardly stands there. He'd cut in but he doesn't think he'd be appreciated. Plus, doesn't know how to waltz.]

[salvationsnox]

[Too bad. First chance he gets, Atticus is pulling Joyd in for a dance once his previous partner is taken by someone else]

[mutedpleasure]

[Bu-but...] I can't dance, Atticus. [Taking very clumsy steps.]

[salvationsnox]

That's why I'm taking it slow. [Slowly leading the dance, making sure Joyd doesn't trip]
