I hope everyone is ready for the dance because there's not much time left now until the big day! Be sure that you've got your costume and also more importantly your date in order because you definitely don't want to go without a date!

[Sophomores]

You're all ready for the dance right because if not say so now and we can band together to get you ready before it's too late!

Also did you guys notice the patronuses were there any that surprised you and also did you see the matching ones who do you think is in love? Maybe we should make a chart.

[Quentin]

You don't have a date for the dance, right?

It's really not that bad to go without a date. You can always go with friends!

[beansontoast]

Sure it's better than not going at all but you can always have a friend date that's a no pressure way to still at least have a date which is preferable!

[cant_even]

Also true, but going with a group is like having several dates. That's cool too!

[beansontoast]

Sure if you want then to pair up and leave you out and if you want to scramble to have a dance partner.

[cant_even]

Everyone dances with everyone though. I didn't only dance with my date at prom last year.

[beansontoast]

Sure but your date is your date so when all else fails you've got a date and you can like hang out with them and dance with them and whatever!

[cant_even]

That's also true. I hope you find someone, then!

[beansontoast]

Oh I'm sure I will and I hope you enjoy yourself no matter what you decide to do!

[meerigold]

Sure, Jan.

[novelling]

Be careful, Charlotte. If you talk to her too much she'll ask you to Winter Formal.

[meerigold]

[Anyone unfortunate enough to be in or near the Atrium can hear her awful shriek of a laugh.]

[meerigold]

Speaking from experience?

[novelling]

I don't think I should answer. If she'd asked and been turned down, wouldn't that make what she's saying now sound awfully pathetic?

[evercreep]

But she sounds so genuinely at peace with being dateless.

[colemoss]

she should be. it's just for fun, right? it doesn't matter if you've got a date or not.

[novelling]

Sure. The more you talk about how happy you are with something, the more people will believe you.

[cant_even]

I'm fine with being dateless.

[meerigold]

Bless her heart... I'd hope she wouldn't ask out her roommate, of all people. Especially one that's way out of her league. That'd make things so awkward.

[novelling]

Would there be any way to make the situation even more awkward? Could you, perhaps, try to pretend you were only asking to go as friends after being rejected?

[cant_even]

Can't you let it rest
You are an awful person do you
Sometimes I just h
EXCUSE ME for thinking it'd be
Whatever

[novelling]

Oh, good. For a minute I thought you'd perished of shame.

[cant_even]

Nope just busy.

[novelling]

Then I won't keep you from whatever it is.

[colemoss]

[...] her name's issy.

[cant_even]

They're just trying to bully me. And you. Just [...] leave it. Maybe a Prefect will
