Edmund confirmed that he was classically trained and Lily giggled at his explanation that it would be hard to classically dance with three people. She pouted, then turned to Cordie as she asked Ed again if he was classically trained. "Oh yes, Cordie. Ed is royalty," Lily explained slipping an arm around Ed's shoulders, "he learned how to dance cuz he's got all those royal balls and stuff," she sighed, "maybe we'll switch it later. What do you prefer, Ed? Waltz, Tango? Which one should we teach Cord?" she nodded her head toward Cordelia and raised an eyebrow at Edmund. Either way, this was going to be a good night. She was happy just entertaining friends. @edmund cordelia regan smith

Irina smiled as he leaned in to kiss her cheek. “So I guess I do actually have to wear the dress and not a trash bag then, darn,” she joked, snapping her fingers in mock defeat. She let him lead her off the dance floor as the song ended. “Hmm our song?” she asked, then laughed. “Eileen does kind of sound like Irina...if it was Irene,” she reasoned. She moved to loop one of her arms through the crook of his elbow and led him over to the table with butterbeer. She grabbed two and offered the second to him. “Well if you didn’t want to go together I suppose I can sit in the front while you sit backstage,” she said teasingly. She wasn’t sure just how much Louisa knew about their relationship, but she did know Louisa liked her; hopefully the elder Hoh thought she was good enough for her baby brother. Speaking of younger siblings, Irina looked over and noticed Tania had joined the party. She was pleasantly surprised; she hadn’t expected her to come with her anxiety having gotten so bad the past few months. “Tania’s over there, shall we say hello?” she asked him, then leaned in with a mischievous grin on her face. “And then maybe we can leave and find somewhere more private?” she whispered with a soft giggle.

"Uh, yeah. The nice dress is kind of important," he teased back. He chuckled, "I could change it a little... come on Irena, oh I swear (what I meana), At this moment, you mean everything... yeah, I don't have to change that much just a view vowels," he grinned, chuckling as he leaned forward to wrap an arm around her waist and pull her body against his. "No, no. We'll both sit in the audience. Stop teasing me so much," he said with a small pout, but it was short lived and a smile found it's space on his lips again. He kissed her, sad that it had to break when she suggested that they go say hello to Tania.
"Yeah... I guess we can say hi," he said, smirking a bit at her, "then I expect you to hold your word on that going somewhere private deal. I could just eat you," he leaned forward and nipped playfully at her neck. Then, suddenly, a rush of someones emotion came over him and he gasped, turning around to try and see who it was, "someone at this party has got jealousy issues. Come on, let's say hi to Tania and get outta here."

Irina laughed jovially at his attempts to change the lyrics to fit her own name. “We’ll work on it,” she told him, allowing herself to be pulled against him. “Okay, but if I cry you’re not allowed to judge me,” she said, her nose scrunched up. She draped her arms around his neck and kissed him again before unwinding them and taking his hand in hers. “It’ll be very, very qui-” she began to say, but gasped when he leaned forward and nipped at her neck. “Oh my... keep doing that and I don’t think I can wait to find somewhere private,” she managed to get out with a small giggle. Her heart fluttering with anticipation, she quickened her pace over to her baby sister and threw her free arm around her for a quick hug. “Hey Tan,” she greeted her with a smile. “We’re about to head out but wanted to say hi really quickly,” she added, squeezing Dan’s hand with her own.

Edmund nodded his head at Cordelia when she asked if he was classically trained, but Lily answered out loud before he could say anything. Ed rolled his eyes at her answer though, because she had to say he was royalty. Really, he shouldn't be surprised. This was Lily, after all. She loved to embarrass him in every way possible. At first he was going to try and defend himself, but what could he really say? He was royalty (like it or not) and most everyone at school knew it. It wasn't like he could deny that fact. He shrugged when she asked what he liked to dance to. "I like the Waltz," he told them both. "And it's the easiest one to learn." Besides that, it was the one Edmund would feel the most comfortable teaching to someone else. "What do you want Cordelia? To learn a basic dance or a harder one?" He turned to the other girl, trying to make sure she felt included in the conversation. cordelia regan smith lily luna potter

So this was pure and utter shock felt like. Cordelia could tell that her jaw had physically dropped as Lily stated that Edmund was royalty. Like the muggle royalty kind. The ones she saw films about all the time. Staring at the Slytherin, she finally managed to not look like she was going to be permanently stuck with her mouth open. Plus it wasn’t polite to stand there looking like an idiot, especially in front of royalty.
“Anything is f-fine…” In actuality, the harder dance would have been preferable. She had caught on quick to the dancing thing Daryl and the others had shown her earlier, so it was safe to assume that classical was a little easier. It was just stepping around the other person, right? Realizing that her rather vague answer wasn’t going to get them anywhere, she spoke up again. “W-Waltz I guess? N-Need to know for that b-ball thing in December…”

She wished her roommate a "Night, Andy," as the other girl left, leaving her dancing with Viola. "You were looking for me?" She repeated, too quiet to hear easily with the music so loud, and smiled, a little shier than her usual beaming state. But she seemed to have made Viola blush, and she didn't know what to do with that - but she could feel her cheeks warming in response. Trusting that her skin would spare her the Weasley tomato treatment, she added, louder, "Glad it didn't take you long, then."
bye @lestrange @viola

“I was wondering if you have already been asked to the Yule Ball,” Dastan started in. Gwendolen held her breath. She hadn't been asked by anyone yet, nor had she done any asking, herself. She had been waiting to see if Dastan would ask her, which—if her suspicions were correct—it sounded as though he was, right at that very moment. “And, if not... Will you go with me?”
“Yes!” Gwen beamed, unable to imagine herself giving him any other answer. Of course she would go to the ball with him! “I'd love to!”
She didn't feel nervous; she only felt that she was living in a dream and needed to be pinched. Her luck with Dastan had been too good to be true. If all of her future auditions went the same way, she wouldn't complain. It was as though someone had slipped her some Felix Felicis, enough to send her straight to Cloud Nine.
Every last detail needed to be perfect. Would his dress robes match hers? Clashing was almost a sin. There were spells that she could use to change the color of hers, she knew, or there was always dye…

Ed said that he liked the waltz and Lily grinned excitedly, but she turned toward Cordia when he asked her. That was so sweet of him! Lily loved that Ed was at an actual party making some friends. That was good for the guy. Cordie claimed anything was fine, seemingly over her shock from finding out that Ed was royalty. She agreed to the Waltz as well and Lily grinned, clapping her hands together and lifting up onto her toes. "All right! Waltz it is! I'll go change the music. Ed, show her where your arms are supposed to go, be right back!" she skipped over to the music player and started to make the switch, but not before yelling, "OKAY EVERYONE TIME TO DANCE LIKE PROFESSIONALS HERE DON'T BE SHY," she laughed, tossing her head back and switched the music.
@edmund & @cordie
(Everyone else if you see this you can react to the music being switched to waltz! If you don't that's okay too, we're pretty chill.)

Roxy’s friend left as soon as Viola came, and they tried their best not to overthink that. Maybe she was just tired or something, and Viola didn’t need to be paranoid. They didn’t even care about Roxy’s friends, just the girl in front of them. “Yeah, I was.” They said, trying to fight the blush in their cheeks by shrugging nonchalantly. “I wasn’t sure I’d find you here.” Which was definitely the truth. “Are you one to, you know, party a lot?” That would be some interesting information to find out, that was for sure. All of a sudden, the music changed, playing a waltz instead of the more thumpity dance music that had otherwise pulsed through the room. “You know how?” Viola asked, gesturing upwards as if that would someone clarify that they were asking Roxy if she knew how to waltz.

As he waited for her response, Dastan almost wanted to close his eyes so he couldn't see her expression. Then again, that would defeat the whole purpose. He watched her closely, waiting to see her initial reaction and her reactions after. Her initial reaction seemed to be shock. Then she started grinning and Dastan was relieved. She enthusiastically agreed to go with him and he smiled back at her, trying to think of what else to say. But nothing came to mind. He chuckled, "I was nervous you were going to say no," he admitted after a second. Wait. Why did he say that? He hadn't ever meant to say something like that to anyone, much less a girl like Gwen that he really was starting to care about. He hoped she wouldn't read into it too much.
"So ... I know how to dance, obviously," he told her with a smirk. "But I do not know very much else about this Ball. Is there anything we need to do to prepare?" Being a girl, he was sure she had a list and he figured they might as well talk about it as they continued dancing with one another. He was so glad he decided to come to this party.

“I don’t party a lot so much as parties happen in my vicinity, and I always seem to get swept up in them. Hazards of being Gryffindor, or of having a cousin like Lily,” she said, smiling. “Lily planned this one,” she added, only for the music to change to a slower, classical melody that she didn’t know. Roxy sighed and rolled her eyes as Lily shouted out that it was time to dance like professionals. “She's the redhead yelling,” she added. Viola asked if she knew how to dance to the new music, and she shook her head, curls bouncing. ”Never learned to dance formally. My mum and dad weren’t exactly big on formal situations.” Was Viola going to ask her to dance? Roxy was pretty sure the answer was yes, and she was pretty sure she wanted the answer to be yes. @viola lily luna potter - roxy is not impressed with your music choices

Lily was grinned, obviously thrilled by something, though Ed didn't know what it was. As soon as Cordelia agreed to the Waltz, Lilly was practically bouncing. She announced she was going to change the music and then told Ed to show Cordelia how to stand. He nodded, rolling his eyes good-naturedly as she hurried away. He turned to Cordelia, wondering if her nerves were normal or if he was causing them. Why was she stuttering? Not that he would say anything. Edmund smiled at her. "Ok, so for the Waltz- or any form of ballroom dance, that is- the girl puts her left hand on the guy's shoulder and then they hold hands." Edmund lifted his hand for her to take when she was ready. He didn't want to force anything on her. "The guy's other hand goes on the girl's waist so he can lead her better," he explained, waiting a few seconds before placing his hand lightly on her waist. "Any questions so far?" he asked hesitantly. He'd never actually taught someone to dance before. Practiced with Addi, sure, but with her he didn't feel the need to hesitate. She was his best friend, after all. cordelia regan smith lily luna potter

Viola laughed when Roxy said that they didn’t seek parties out but ended up in the middle of them anyways. They couldn’t imagine having a life like that, where parties just happened accidentally. They were a little surprised to hear that Roxy was related to the redhead who was yelling something, but shrugged it off. Roxy wouldn’t lie to them.
“My mum was an actress. She taught me how to dance when I was little so that she’d have a partner.” And that had not worked out well for anyone involved, since six year olds were not the epitome of coordination. “Do you wanna?” Viola asked, trying their hardest to be casual. “I mean, if neither of us are much good, it’s just going to be fun, right?” Sure, there would be a few crushed toes, but that was all a part of the dance experience!

Lily was quick to have the music changed, despite the groans and protests to do something more…formal. It was hard to call it that with the way everyone had just been acting. Funny almost. Either way, Lily seemed to be having fun, and that meant she was allowed to have fun too. Turning back to Edmund, Cordelia waited for instructions on what to do next. Her entire night so far had consisted of being taught how to dance. That beat sitting in bed and reading healing charms books like she did every other night of the week.
Compared to the two instructors from earlier, Margaux and Daryl, Edmund seemed to take his time and be a little gentler than the others. Even Lily had been rather forceful in her teachings; Cordelia expected that out of her though, so it wasn’t as much of a shock. She placed her left hand on his shoulder like instructed and took his other hand with her free one. After having Margaux and Daryl all over her earlier, this was simple. Except the part where he placed his second hand on her waist. Cordelia squirmed slightly, before relaxing back to normal. She wasn’t quite used to that part yet. “N-No questions. What’s next?”
