Winter Social - Friday, December 9th (open to all)
The events committee pulled off a rather impressive decorating scheme given their limited budget this year. Old silver and blue candles lit every alcove, sparkled above students heads as the floated around the ceiling. A spell created snow that fell among the candles and dissipated just as it reached the shoulders of the students partying below.
Recycled ribbons and streamers in a wintery palette draped on the walls, off the back of chairs and the small stage that graced the far end of the ballroom. Tables were draped with cloths in various shades of icy blue, some silver, some pristine white (at least until the students managed to spill their beverages).
Music hummed in the corner as a local cover band warmed up their instruments. The usual spot for photographs was set up just inside the doors. Professors wandered around the periphery, making sure the students were on their best behavior, though as these things usually ended up, the students were a lot better at misbehaving than their professors were at stopping them.

Veronica/Open
She reasoned then, that she needed a break from all the endless studying. By that very reason she thought she must be losing her mind.
She sent home for her standard holiday party dress and made her way past the photo booth to look for anyone who might want to distract her for the evening.
Veronica/Braden
Towards the entrance, he spotted Veronica, his date from the Halloweenfest party whom had been unceremoniously abandoned for... some kind of amazing food. He waved. "Hey!"
In the end it turned out to be a decent trade off. Why he was coming over to talk to her during the winter social had her a bit boggled. She wasn't a cheese platter; he couldn't possibly be interested in her.
"Please tell me you've never lit fireworks inside?"
