re_alignment | IT'S A DANCE! [Video]

[ Hey look! It's Saber and Vandal. They're sitting together, Vandal has a half-empty bottle of whiskey in hand, which she lifts to the screen. ]

So guys. Saber and I got to talking, and I don't know about you, but we are fucking sick of all this terrible shit happening.

Giant centipedes? Here's to you.

[ She takes a drink. ]

Anyways, we were thinking about putting together a formal dance? Like, a ask-someone-on-a-date dance sort of thing.

Anyways. We'll need a place to have it, we were thinking the Atrium if that's okay.

We'll also need some help.

Saber? The list, please?

[ Saber nods and reads off the list. ]

We'll need catering, two people to help decorate, a musician, a bouncer, and I am looking for two volunteers to help me watch over the event. This isn't expected to be a heavy responsibility, but one will need to keep out an eye for arising issues.

There will also be a requirement of at least one piece of formal wear. For everyone.

That means you Cybertronians. Find a bow-tie or hat or something!

We're aiming for a week from now, so uh. Yep. You heard it folks.

Better start trying to find a date!

[ End transmission. Vandal is in red text and Saber is in blue text. ]

But Vandal said we needed one. I'm not exactly a party mech.

She didn't say you need one, just that people should start looking. Personally, if I wasn't going with Vandal, I would likely not go with a date.

And I'm not a party person, either. I .. want to help people cheer up. We've all been through a lot lately, and the more that show up, the more people will be able to enjoy themselves.

That's how I feel about it.

Oh you and Vandal...? [He had no idea that you two were that close.] How cute. Congrats.

It's really nice that you are doing that. [He's sure he won't be someone enjoyable to have around, though.] I will think about it.

Yes, we're going together as hosts since we're planning it.

[ Way to miss what Blurr was insinuating, Saber. ]

That's all I can ask of you. Take care, Blurr.

I hope you have fun together, you make a nice couple.

[What an adorable clueless girl.]

Thanks Saber. I just don't want to ruin anybody's mood.

[ There's a short staaaare at the message, and then.. ]

Oh no, it's not like that. We decided to go together since we will be organizing and looking over things.

[ Saber is definitely sure of her wording; Vandal isn't thinking of it as a date, so then why does she feel so awkward and why is her face so red? ]

[Blurr blinks.]

But you two said people had to go with a date. Why this doesn't count?

[He sees that red face, Saber.]

[ No, you don't! She's looking rather silly and awkward as she texts. Saber is quite glad no one is around, actually. ]

It's because we are the hosts. If we went on dates with others, we wouldn't be able to focus on the event. So we are each other's dates in place so we may perform our duties.

If I wasn't going with Vandal, I would likely go on my own, regardless.

[ Wow, stumbling over your own words there, much, Saber? ]

[Oh, true. Shame indeed, he would think it's cute if he could.]

I understand. But that means you two won't be able to have fun during the party.

It really wouldn't bother you to go there alone? [Because that makes Blurr feel awkward as hell.]

No, I am used to being at events for the sake of being there.

[ And it was better to go alone than go with someone who obviously didn't want to be with you there in the first place. Even if no one else knew that person didn't want to be there with you.

Saber was used to going to social gatherings to smile, nod, and act as if she were enjoying herself. The duties of a king, after all. ]

Formalities and responsibilities, I can understand. I had to attend event like those too.

That didn't make them fun.

[Blurr would agree with that train of thought. You know what they say Saber, if you can't be with the one you love love the one you're with.] I hope you enjoy this one more.

I think I will, even if I am working. There's definitely promise of a fun event. If you don't come to it, I'm sure you will hear of it.

((That reference to the person not wanting to be there is about her wife, the queen, that she had. Just in case anyone is wondering..))

Ah, I see.

(ooc: oh, interesting. Was it Genevieve?))

I guess that coming to the party won't hurt.

[But he's' going to hide in the darkest corner of the bard ]

I'm glad! I think you need a night to relax. Besides, you don't need to stay the entire time. And if the dance is a bit too much for you, the bar will be open.

[ Saber can't help but smile and feel accomplished. She wasn't expecting to convince him, so this is a lovely outcome. ]

Maybe it could be good. I will keep that in mind.

[go, saber, go! :3]
