xp_logsBefore the dance, Catseye visits Meggan. They begin to plot a way for her to float upside down for pictures, without the use of a rope to hold down her dress.
Tail swishing behind her, Catseye hummed to herself as she knocked on Meggan's suite door, small gift bag in hand. "Hey Meggan, do you need any help getting ready in there?" she called out as she knocked. "Any strings you need tied up or something?" She liked how grad dresses sometimes had strings. "Or hair shinies you need put in?"
Meggan answered the door immediately, glad for the offer of help. She was mostly ready, except for the little things were currently dangling down her back, managing to stay just out of reach. “Hi,” she smiled. “There’s not too many strings to knot up in this one, except these three at the very upper back.” She was lacking in anything like hair barrettes or anything shiny right now, unsure if they worked in a mostly red dress like this one. Or if would just be too much of one color, since there were little white poppies trailing around the bottom. She was thankful there wasn’t a need for corsets to fit in with the theme of the dance, just slips.
"I'll get right on it!" Catseye answered with a grin. She held the bag out to Meggan. "For you. Happy graduation!" She'd been busy lately making candy necklaces for everybody, with a big "Class of 2012" candy charm she'd designed herself on each one. Meggan was the last person on her delivery list and it was nice to have no more bags in her hands.
“Thank you! Side ties are easier.” Meggan turned to give Catseye easier access to the straps. As that was done, Meggan put on the candy necklace. “It looks great.” If she wound up craving a snack during the dance for some reason, she could eat it. A bonus. She had almost started to feel like graduation could end up overlapping with college beginning with the way it was all nudged around, making it into something like a last and first day of school at the same time. She wasn’t sure if that possible.
"Thank you!" Catseye giggled. She swiftly tied the ties on the dress and stepped back to look at Meggan. "Very pretty!" she complimented, nodding vigourously. "Is Korvus gonna bring you a corsage?"
That was much nicer now, and she didn’t think any stray strings were anywhere that either of them had happened to overlook. “Maybe?” Meggan didn’t know, she’d forgotten to let him know her dress color if he was going to, and if he wanted it to all match up. “I didn’t ask him to, but he did for another dance. Is it okay for corsages to match a candy necklace?” Because if it didn’t match her dress, there was a rainbow of colors there that had the possibility to match. Multicolored shoes may not be the right solution.
"I think it's okay," the catgirl grinned. "So what are you and Korvus doing after the party?"
Senior prom was uncharted territory, even if Meggan had done Homecoming at ESU with Korvus. So something similar…minus the confusion as to how to behave with him from then, of course. Since that was all fixed up. “After the party and the dancing, there’s eating and resting. If we haven’t been eating already. We didn’t have major plans. Minor plans are trying for a couple sillier pictures.” Because she wanted to send one non-silly one back to family, as a graduation gift.
"Sounds like fun. Eating's always good, and so is silly," Catseye nodded in approval. Just a liiiiiiiiiiittle bit different from your own graduation, she thought to herself wryly. But, then again, look how that turned out. Now you can't think about graduation without being a little bit sad. And that's no good. So eating and resting and silly pictures seems much... safer. "I didn't think Korvus really did silly," she mused, but then amended the statement with "even though he has a really good sense of humour. So, yeah, it'll be really great to see you guys doing some sillier pictures."
“Sometimes,” Meggan grinned. “If he doesn’t want to tonight, we can just do the regular ones with him and some private silly.” That didn’t sound like it had come out entirely right, so Meggan added, “Funny poses?” Like she’d said on the journals when there’d been asking about taking pictures of people, floating upside down was something Meggan had always wanted to do for a picture…but in a dress? “Upside down floating between or swimming in the air behind him. But that could only work if I could figure out away to tie my dress down…like to a shoe, temporarily. Because I don’t want it to fall over my head for that first one.” In a way that didn’t involve lugging a rope to a place she wanted to dance. It wouldn’t go with her dress, and would only get in the way.
"You could glue it to your legs?" Catseye suggested, but that didn't seem like a very good idea when she said it out loud. "Or get Korvus to design something like girls used to wear in the olden days with the cages that the dress goes on top of and we could glue the dress to that?" That one made her giggle. "Oooo! Ooo! I know!" She raised her hand excitedly like a kid with an answer to a question in class. "We could get some really big fans and put them all around you and point them all at you when you're upside down and then when you're upside down the fans will blow really hard and keep the dress floating upwards around your legs instead of falling down!"
“That...might actually work.” The fans, never the glue. It might ruin the dress before any dancing could begin. Was there time to make a dress cage? “Maybe, with the fans just out of the shot, yes!” Meggan laughed after a moment’s consideration. “If I don’t look like a mime fighting the pretend, but very real artificial wind from upside down in the end, with the highest setting. Unless we blew someone else’s dress up with the wind effect. Which shouldn’t happen if we had all the fans near the doors.” Would really big fans be worth it for one or two funny pictures? Would it get them in trouble? She doubted it, and it could be a fun and unique way to accomplish funny aerial poses while solving the dress over the head issue.
Having been mostly kidding, Catseye was a little surprised Meggan seemed so enthused by her idea, but once her friend started to plan out the specifics, Catseye happily got on board. "I can patrol the area and keep people from coming too close and getting their dresses blown up," she offered with a grin.
“Good idea. It would only be for about five minutes, to pull it off at most. So patrolling and saving all the dresses wouldn’t be for long,” Meggan agreed. She hoped. "No corsages or fancy things will be harmed in the undertaking of this plan," she added jokingly. But it was a great idea tacked onto a funny plan that she actually wanted to try out. Was their extension cord long enough? She thought so. And she was fine with the possibility of ending up with wild, windswept hair in the aftermath, since she would have been gravity what with being upside down while playing with a fan for a few minutes at that point—she could fix it before the dancing with Korvus began.
Snickering in response to Meggan's last comment, Catseye held out her arm to Meggan. "To the fans!" she announced in her most dramatic voice, thrusting an arm outward and upward like a superhero. "This is gonna be the best picture ever!"
