That would mean that it wouldn't be my party. Perhaps you could have your own dinner party and cook your own meal then." Bessie thought to herself ' how forward of him! He may not be one of the ones to visit.......' She glances towards where the other female was and found her sitting next to the dull as in not so smart guy.... Neven! that was his name. Plus I still think that he is rude. But I should at least speak to him so that I won't seem rude myself. I must do what I must do....... I'll start by speaking to the gal next to him then go from there. [/color][/b] [b][color=ed1c24] Mictlantecuhtli decided that it was time to make his announcement. He walked over to the table and placed his tea dishes to be picked up later. He then walked to the table where the folders were placed but the long way around so that he could pick up bits of conversations here and there. When Mictlantecuhtli finally made it to the head table he stood behind the podium and cleared his voice. "Excuse me students. I'd like to make a few announcements now that we are gathered here. By now you have settled into your apartments and have spoken to a few people around you. That is good. Now you are going to be mixed up and will be partnered by me. You will be civil to the person who you are partnering. Each week you will have a different partner. The reason for this is so that each person will get a chance to know everyone else. After we have exchange partners and have had a week with a different partner, each person can choose who they wish to date. Everyone will be required to use a voice disguiser and wear a mask with your masquerade costume. It will be in your room at the Ball Room. The males will use one side and the females will be on the other side. I will allow one male and female to go inside the hallway to change. They have five minutes to find their room and get inside. Then I will let the next ones inside. Each person will stay inside until the chiming of the clock. Then everyone must be ready or no one will come out until all are ready. Once everyone is ready to go, the males will go down their stairway and the females will go down their own stairway. Each female will have a card where upon the men will sign their number on the ladies card with their chosen pen. Each pen will be a feather pen that will have a number on it. Make sure that your number is showing at all times. We shall have four dances. Two before dinner and two after dinner. After the last dance, I will announce who will be dating who for that week. I will answer any questions about this dance and anything else that you may have.” he finished speaking and was looking around at each person. If you look just right, a person could see that there was more planned. [/color][/b]
