What does one usually wear to a 'masquerade ball' like this? Um, other than the required mask.

...I've never been to one of these before.

[Yes, he sounds pretty lost. Yes, this is open season on suggesting outfits to him]

Oh, something nice! Like a suit or a nice coat...usually something very fancy!

Have anything in mind?

dictated

[asseenontv]

No. I've... never been to any sort of party, really.

[msattentionspan]

I think the mask is all that really counts. I'm not gonna get all dressed up for it.

[ dictated ]

[asseenontv]

Do people usually get dressed up?

[msattentionspan]

That's what people seem to be talking about in the city.

[asseenontv]

I see.

[msattentionspan]

You gonna go?

[asseenontv]

I believe I will.

[msattentionspan]

Maybe I'll see you there.

[asseenontv]

Perhaps. I think I'd like that.

[msattentionspan]

I'm not dressing up, so I'll be the one... not dressed up.

[asseenontv]

I'll keep an eye out.

[msattentionspan]

Alright.

Dictated forever

[huffythedragon]

Well, I know fancy suits and dresses are usually worn in balls.

[asseenontv]

Hmm. I think I can manage that.

[huffythedragon]

You have to dance and do all this froo froo girly stuff too, bro.

[asseenontv]

I like dancing, I think.

What sort of 'girly things'?

[huffythedragon]

...Really?

Well you gotta talk and be all 'that's a nice dress' and listen to them giggle and listen to girly music.

It's just a giant girl-fest man.

[asseenontv]

I do not mind talking, or girls. Though Jaimie told me not to flirt with any who looked under twenty.

[huffythedragon]

...

Why not?

[asseenontv]

Engaging in sexual intercourse with them would be illegal, and he did not wish for me to 'lead them on.'

[huffythedragon]

[SILENCE.

What just happened? What did he actually just hear? What is his life?]

I think I understood, like, half of that.

[asseenontv]

[There is a long pause. 'Star realizes that might have been what Theresa calls 'TMI']

...You are young, no?

[Because Spike doesn't sound like a grown-up, quite. Even if it's, uh, hard to judge dragons]

[huffythedragon]

Yeah, I'm ten. Why?

[asseenontv]

Then it is not a matter you need to concern yourself with, I think.

[huffythedragon]

...You sure? It sounded pretty serious. [It's okay he'll just ask Zelos]

[asseenontv]

I am sure.

[yeah go and ask the one guy with possibly less discretion in his flirtation than Shatterstar XD]

[psych0p0mps]

clothes ideally

[asseenontv]

That did seem to be implied.

[and he doesn't actually sound sarcastic at all. Mostly because in his mind this is a semi-valid question]

[psych0p0mps]

you never know
anyway since its a masquerade maybe were supposed to go in costume?

[asseenontv]

Indeed. Are costumes usually a part of these things?

[psych0p0mps]

couldnt tell you
i dont think ive ever been to one before 0_0

[asseenontv]

I suppose it will be a new experience for both of us, then.

[psych0p0mps]

i suppose so!
but hopefully a fun one

[asseenontv]

I hope so too.
