"Woah, what's that look for, Lauren?" Jade smiled 'innocently'. "I didn't say anything wrong, did I?" she asked sweetly, then turned back to Noah. "Thank you. And if there wer a Batman, They'd probably make me fight him or kiss him or something like that." She made a face at the thought of kissing some unknown person through a mask. "Although," she decided, "I'm not sure that I'd mind fighting him..."

((Who said Lauren gave her a look?))
Lauren look back at Noah. Man, was everyone on a last name basis? Ugh, Lauren would stick to first name. Maybe it was something that would set her apart from the growing fad or whatever. She just didn't phase into that sort of stuff easily. He questioned her it seemed, but she hadn't yet a chance to answer him, seeing as Jade asked her a questioned.
Look, what look? Well now she gave Jade a look, purely for being obnoxious. Lauren knew her facial expressions, and she didn't give Jade a look. No she didn't say anything wrong, but if she kept up this act she may get a black eye. Lauren never felt a liking for Jade, even though she'd been civil the last time they got together, well later on. But it seemed she was always interesting in stealing her men annoying her.
"Not particularly," Lauren lied in a rather dull tone. Lauren stifled back a laugh when she made a face after she said 'kiss him'. Liar.

Ash looked over her shoulder just to check on how her dear Lauren and Noah were doing, although frowned when she saw someone else. NO! Lauren and Noah have to end up together! she thought feircely. She glanced back to Talia, Jake, Anna, and Misaki, "I'll be back, okay?" she gave a small smile and was off.
Ash also forced a smile to Jade, as she pushed Noah onto Lauren, "Whoops.." she said almost laughing although held it in as best she could. She really did hope that he'd fall on the girl although didn't know how strang she was.

Abigail spun around at the sound of her name. "Heya Li-Li!" she grinned at the girl, the thought of Mike completely disappearing from her mind. "Happy Halloween, heh?" She looked up at the sign once more and in at the incredible decorations. "You look fantastic," the Huffle complimented once her gaze was returned to her friend, and a smile found her lips in admiration.
It was true, the second year hadn't gotten the best look at her friend earlier that evening when they were preparing for the Ball, but all the better (even though the lighting was so dim it was hard to see your hand in front of your face). Lianna did look great though.

Noah raised an eyebrow at the "kiss him" comment. He was confused at what she was getting at. "Er..." he didn't know exactly how to respond. What's wrong with all these girls? Perhaps Jade and Lauren just had a bad history together or something.
It was then that Noah got shoved onto Lauren by Ash. He tried to break his fall, but spilled his punch all over Lauren, and falling on top of her. Ash had pushed him extremely hard, and for the second time in a single week he was on top of a girl. The first time during detention with Solis; that time, he fell on top of Abigail. He blushed and tried to help Lauren up.
"Jesus Christ, Xin! Are you bloody crazy?!" he demanded, as he tried to get on his knees, but slipped on the punch again-- falling back on Lauren.

Ty strutted up to the Entrance Hall from the Slytherin common room in full costume. The theme for his costume had come to him at one of the other get togethers that the students had. Dressed in a giant chicken suit that he had taken the liberty of singeing it in spots to give it the look that it had been on fire at one time. Feathers ruffled and half burnt hung out at odd angles all over the costume. He also had bewitched flames to stay in the general area of the chickens tail. This he had found to be extremely funny and was his favorite part of the costume. After all it was his idea in the first place to set the chicken at the Starry Oriantaion’s tail on fire. The flames were bluebell flames bewitched to not burn through the costume or to even give off smoke. He thought that it might cause a panic if there was smoke in the room and he was already pressing his luck if Bloxam happened to come into the ball and didn’t want to give him any excuse to kick him out of it. The face of the chicken looked quite deranged and was even pilling in some spots to show the person underneath. In these spots Ty had taken the liberty of talking one of the older students into transfiguring them so that they resembled Bloxam’s face. Yes it was the perfect costume, well at least he thought it was. It was sure to get a laugh.
Looking around for Lianna he spotted her and her friend in the Enterance Hall conversing about something. "Hi Lianna, hi Abigail" he said walking over to the pair.

Jade gave Lauren a Look, trying to stare her down. She could tell that Noah was slightly confused, but didn't care at tha moment. All that mattered was that Lauren was being a bi...rat. A brat. Then she was showered with punch as Noah was pushed on top of Laure. Jade glared at the girl. "Dude, what's your problem?!" She asked, before turning to the two on the floor. "Hey, are you guys okay?" She held out a hand to help up Noah, then one for Lauren. Hey, she could afford to be nice and actually have class, no matter how much she and Lauren didn't like each other, Jade was determined not to let the other girl get to her.

"Same to you, thanks, you look pretty convincing yourself....I can't really do 'scary'..." Lianna replied initially, a slight shrug protruding from her shoulders as she found herself biting the side of her lip as the event drew on while leaving her with little, practically nothing to do. The decor inside the Hall wasn't one she really felt safe around,t hen again, she didn't much like the whole room. Darkness...the corners especially looked like something lurked in them, perhaps staff or seventh years or something. Either way it just didn't feel right to her.
Having been about to question Abi on where Mark, or Ty for that matter was, she was cut short of doing so by the appearance of one (the one she would question slightly more about), pretty much exactly as he said he would be dressed: a dranged burning chicken. And she couldn't help it. She laughed.
"Ty...I...honestly thought you were..kidding...." She claimed in between fits. She was one of few people who seemed to not be wearing a mask, it was Halloween yes, but that didn't mean you had to have your face hidden...did it? Whatever. He was crazy, that simple.

Well so much for all Lauren's hard work to actually look in the mood for Halloween. It had been ruined. Even though most of the hard work was done by Beni, Lauren had to endure it all through the rough patches before it looked good. Now it was completely ruined. Nice, real nice, Ash. If she hadn't grown a liking to her, she might have snapped her head off. But no, she held herself in a manner that wouldn't do that.
Red. Red punch blended a little less than well with her dress. Now it was purple, honestly. If it was originally purple, that would've been fine. No, it was stained purple. First time Noah was on top of her, she just wanted him off, automatically bugged with the feel of punch on her chest. The second time was a bit funny, especially since he had been trying to yell at Ash, but Lauren didn't laugh.
"Noah, you're bloody stupid." She spoke with humor whispering in her voice. "You let Ash push you over, come on, she's like a foot shorter than you," Okay, exagerating, but whatever. Lauren looked over at Jade, and she was not touching her hand for anything. She shooed it away, because she could getup by herself.
"Jade, what's your problem? Leave her the hell alone,"

She stifled a smirk, "..sorry.." she said quietly staring at Noah fall upon Lauren again, this was great! She was definately going to have her way... oh crap, she was sounding spoiled again... well, Ash never usually got her way. She just wanted her friends to be happy, they wouldn't be mad at her when they realized their true emotions for eachother.
She hoped that Lauren wouldn't be mad at her although highly doubted it, it had looked like an accident, didn't it? She didn't full on push him-- it was more like shoulder him. Ash knew it was wrong, but this time, it felt so good.
But suddenly she noticed that Lauren was soaked with punch, red punch. "Aih!!" she exclaimed her mouth dropping open, as she rushed to their side. "I- I'm so sorry!" she studdered, helping Lauren up.

"God, sorry," Jade said, as her hand was ignored. She took a deep breath and closed her eyes, letting the air out and counting slowly to five in her head. Then, she opened her eyes and smiled. Seeing Lauren's dress, her eyes grew wider. "Oh no! Your dress!" She bit her lip, debating between offering help and having it be declied or just sitting there and looking stupid. She decided on the former. "Um...Can I help you with it at all?"

Abby was about to thank Lianna for the compliment when a..chicken? came forth from the dungeons. She raised an eyebrow (if Cruella's already high arched brows could go any further into her receding hair line) and stared with a rather blank expression as it neared the two girls.
"Um...hi chicken," she said, honestly unsure of who it was. Was that fire burning its tail feathers? She cast a sideways glance at Lianna and than returned her rather rude stare at the feathery farm animal. "Ty?" she questioned once hearing her friend's greeting. "Erm...interesting choice of costume," she commented with a confused look on her face. She had never seen someone dress as a chicken...a burning chicken, for Halloween before. That took originality. Abby was also curious as to why Lianna hadn't informed her of her date's particularly odd choice of costume.

Krissy had been getting ready for over an hour now. Which was really a first for Krissy as she usually didn't prepair for anything and was usually late, but she had started early determined to not be late tonight. She wanted to be on time for Pat. She knew what he was going as but she hadn't told him what she was going as. But she had chooen hers to match his. The reason for her taking so long was it took quite a while to get her ears just how she liked them. Krissy looked nothing like herself tonight, her normally bright red hair had been dyed to a sleek silver colour, which sparkeled in the night, a color that quite easily matched Pats. It had also been cut short, so it no longer reached down past her shoulders but instead sat just above them. Poking out from amounst her hair were two big round mouse ears. But that wasn't the unusual part. One of the ears had a chunk missing out of it. What looked like a chunk that someone, or something had bitten off. It seemed, she had had a bite taken out of her ear. It had taken Krissy a very long time to transfigure the ears to be absolutely perfectly how she wanted them, but she had finally got them. To go with her ears she wore a low cut black shirt. but accross the front of it were 3 large slits, making it look like scratch marks and around the marks was a red substance that resembeled blood. The shirt had no sleeves and the parts in which her arms came out looked like they had been ripped and so were raggety. Krissy had also put on a small black mini skirt which had pleats at the front and back. Poking out from the back of the skirt was a long thin pink mouse tail, there to match nicely with her ears. Under the skirt, stretching all the way up her legs were a pair of grey stockings, but once again delierate cuts had been put in them giving them a slightly ruffeled look. A pair of black leather boots stretched up her legs reaching to just below her knees and she wore a pair of grey gloves, missing the fingers that stretched hald way up her arm, coming to an end just before her elbows, the end of the gloves looking ragged, to match the rest of her costume. As a final touch a few large obvious scratches and cuts had been placed up her arms, a few of which appeared to be bleeding. Her costume had taken a while to think of but, she liked it. She had choose to go as a mouse, but the idea of being half eaten, had come from Ari. Krissy thought the idea was perfect. Krissy had made the walk up to the great hall from the Hufflepuff common room alone, she knew Pat had already left. She looked around at the outside of the hall and not seeing Pat entered through the door of the great hall, her eyes taking in the magnificent site of the great hall. It didn't matter how many halloween balls she went to the decorations always seemed to get better. Her eyes finished their scanning and fell upon the one thing she had been searching for. Pat. Who wasn't very far from the door's of the hall. Krissy brushed a stray piece of her silver hair away from her eyes and took the few steps she needed to to reach him. A sweet smile plastered accross her face. He looked, awesome. His costume had turned out perfectely, Krissy thought it looked very cool. "Heya kitty" she said to him playfully, her currently brown eyes shining. Pat had been staring up at the bat eyes on the ceiling, lost in his own thoughts, when he heard Krissy say "Heya kitty" He looked in front of him, where her voice had come from, but the person standing there looked very different from Krissy, although he could tell it was still her. The sight of Krissy in her costume left Pat speechless for a moment. His eyes took in everything from her hair, which now matched his own, to her bitten mouse ears, to her torn clothes, all the way down to her boots. "Wow..." was all he could manage to say at first. He now understood why she had insisted he come to this ball as a cat; she was dressed as a half-eaten mouse, so their costumes matched up quite well. "Wow," he said again. He continued, "Krissy, you look... wow, you look fantastic." He stepped forward and laid a swift kiss on her cheek. "How'd ya think of this one?" he asked, referring to her costume choice. He hadn't forgotten her birthday present in his pocket, he was just waiting for the right moment to give it to her.

It was driving her nuts. Arianna hadn't been here for five minutes and she was ready to head back out. Who was she kidding anyway? And how in the world did Krissy get anyone to come to the dance as Arianna's date?
Waiting for a full two seconds after Krissy had arrived, Arianna pushed away from the wall and headed after the two Huffles.
"Krissy!" she whispered loudly, the desperation showing clear in her voice. "I'm sorry for interrupting, but...are you sure about this?"

Well. That was certainly nice of Ari. Charon had come all the way across the room and then tried to talk to her, and what did she do? Ran off without answering him. Not that he cared that much. It wasn't the first time a girl had completely ignored him, and it likely wouldn't be the last, either. So then why did he actually care? Shaking his head, he decided to go get some pumpkin juice. He needed to clear his head, and since there was no alcohol around, he'd have to find a way to get drunk on non-alcoholic beverages. If that didn't clear his head, at least he would be too drunk to care tonight and in too much pain tomorrow. He made his way to the food table and touched his hat in a mock salute to the undead quidditch player standing there.
