With the approach of Jalana, the group turned as they heard her voice. He was glad to see her in such an event as it marked that she's mostly recovered, pending the little work to give her full vision back, with a few enhancements.
Rajel: Can I steal you away for a moment? ::She asked him before briefly looking to the members of the group.:: If you don't mind.
Foster: I don’t mind. ::he looked towards every else:: Do you all mind?
Ba'el: We don't mind at all Jalana. He's all yours.
Shimisi: Of course not,... we'll... remain here!
T'Seva: :: laughing :: Where else would we be?
Kincaid: Respond
Shimisi: I hope everything's okay...
T'Seva: She's plotting something.
Ba'el: They'll be fine Shimisi. After everything that happened so recently, I'm sure many people have gotten new perspectives on their lives.
Kincaid: Response
Shimisi: Oh, I just hope it's nothing she might need from the CMO...
Ba'el: ::Toothy grin:: Well where's the fun in that?
Shimisi: I'll take your word for it. So, tell me, what can I expect from a party like this. I mean, there's a way through it, any kind of ritual, procedure or something is common knowledge except for those like me who are not familiar with masquerade balls?
Ba'el: I'm still new to this idea myself Shimisi. ::Motions to T'Seva:: She's been helping me to understand all this.
T'Seva: All I know is that there is a point at which those wearing masks are supposed to simultaneously remove them. In a traditional ball that would happen at midnight local time. I think for this the right time might be when Jalana starts announcing ribbons, but...nobody told me. Other than that, it's just about mingling.
Kincaid: Response
Shimisi: I'll try to have it in mind... It's good to have these from time to time. To mingle around is a great opportunity for me to know you all better. I'm still trying to loosen up a bit in these situations...
Ba'el: As Dr Sydney Freeman, one of my instructors at the Starfleet academy once said to us in class. "Ladies and Gentlemen, take my advice. Pull down your pants, and slide on the ice." It took me some time to realize what he meant.
Mingxing thought about that phrase and he didn't caught the meaning of it. However, he guessed it should be something about loosen up as sliding on ice tends to be a fun recreative practice.
T'Seva: I will say these events help ME loosen up.
Kincaid: Response
Shimisi: Talking about loosen up,... :: looking at Ba'el :: Are you comfortable in that dress? It seems a bit heavy and, it's comfortable to move around? Somehow, I feel it's not exactly Klingon style, right?
Ba'el: ::Arches an eyebrow:: You think this is heavy? You should try wearing a Klingon Opera outfit sometime.
Shimisi: oO That will be an unlikely image Oo
T'Seva: Oh, we wandered around the Hinji Bazaar until we got some inspiration. Everything except the wings is just put together from there. So...longer time to decide, not long to make. It did take me three attempts to replicate the wings, though.
Shimisi: Oh, I like it, it looks really great on you, I was just wondering about it. As you can see, mine is pretty simple. :: changing his sight to T'Seva :: Yours is also great and eye catching. It took you long to decide on the design and make it?
Kincaid: Respond
T'Seva: It's worth it. And I have it all holo-recorded, too, so I could re-create it later if I ever needed to.
Ba'el: That's definitely a good idea.
Shimisi: Also, it'll help you make some variations on that design, for another events or situations.
Ba'el looked around again for a moment.
Ba'el: If you'll excuse me, I think I will go introduce myself to our new crewmembers
Kincaid: Respond
Shimisi: Of course! :: They saw her moving away :: So, do you think we'll be asked to dance? With some of the outfits will be a bit difficult. I'm lucky I have a simple one.
T'Seva: Respond
Kincaid: Response
Shimisi: Elias, you've seen many parties, what kind are your favourites?
Kincaid: Response
Shimisi: Personally I'm thankful for others to plan parties. I'll be terrible at it.
T'Seva/Kincaid: Response
Shimisi: I might be good with machines, they're logical, follow predictable patterns... people tend to be more chaotic and managing that requires... something else.
