 Otter This World ♡ Catpurrccino ♡ Slotherin ♡ Pandamonium
There were many things that Keighley enjoyed. Dances and dressing up being right up there on the list. And these were two things that didn't come up often while at Hogwarts. Especially not getting to dress up as a creature for this dance. Now the real icing on the cake was that she was dressing up to match with Charlie!
The Hufflepuff knew her boyfriend had been feeling a bit homesick lately, so when he suggested they go as Swedish Short Snouts, Keigh readily agreed. She may have gone a little above and beyond with her detailing and matching the dragons coloring exactly but everything was there from the horns to the tail and wings. All in a silvery blue. And yes, thank you magic for helping with the intricate but delicate scale work that she had done on parts of her skin that occasionally shimmered when the light hit them just right. Sorry, Char but she needed to be a smidge girly with the costume.
Walking into the Great Hall, hand in hand with Charlie, Keighley took everything in right away. All the decorations, the music playing and of course the food! She would get to all of that though, there were people to great first. "Hello, Professor. Great costume!" Red pandas were so cute! "Hi everyone!"
It didn't take very long for the door to the Great Hall to open and for the students to start walking through in their costumes. This was what she really wanted to see. What creatures they would come as. Would the food or dance floor attract their attentions first? Perhaps neither and they would choose to mingle with their friends. Whatever the students decided was alright with her as long as the school rules weren't broken they would all have a wonderful time this afternoon.
"Hello, Miss Thanatos! Wonderful costume!" It was safe to safe that she thought she knew the young lady well enough in the creature department to know exactly what she was dressed as. Those that knew her as a professor and person might be surprised she hadn't dressed similarly. "Some help would be great, thank you. I'm just making sure that all of the trays are lined up neatly and nothing is too close to the edge of the tables. Everything has little cards on them that say exactly what they are (or are supposed to be!) She didn't want anyone being put off by anything because it was a strange color or anything.
Hovering along the wall didn't get mean that she hadn't taken notice of the lovely occamy! So hello to you dear. A smile was given in Minerva's (Mouses) direction.
Out of the corner of her eye, Hady saw a flash of green and had to turn to get a better look. Oh, my! How cute! "What a cute Bowtruckle you make, Miss Azarolla!" If the students were making these costumes all on their own, well they had some serious talent!
When a matching pair of dragons entered the room, it took a few seconds for the woman to realize she knew them both. One more so than the other being she was family but they both made her smile. "Hello, Mister Bergstrand, Miss Anders. Why, thank you! You two look amazing as well."
The entrance of another young familiar face, kept the warm smile on hers. "Miss Atreyu-Rehman, what a pretty phoenix you are!" It was so nice to see that they all seemed to have a good time dressing up today.
Hadleigh waited a few more minutes for any more students to arrive before she turned to them all. "Hello everyone! Thank you all for coming. I love all of your costumes, such creativity I've seen here already. Now please go ahead and enjoy the food and drinks that are set out for you all. Dance at your own leisure. Currently I do have the music playing randomly but that can be changed up upon request." In case anyone hadn't noticed there was also a theme with the music as well, creature related bands names or songs.
"I do have instruments set up on the dais if anyone knows how to play or even would like to sing." This was just an open invitation to them all, they didn't have to do so!"In a bit I will also be setting up a photo area for anyone that would like to partake in that." She knew how important it was to capture memories at their age. Well at any age honestly!
