What's a cotillion? Just like [...] a dance I guess? But with manners? Is it hard?

[Warded to Casper Kim]

Hey Kim. I know Asher's your friend and he lives with Zav. I have an idea but we'd have to break a ton of rules

[...]

Nevermind

[Warded to Rosy]

Hey.

I have an idea but it's going to get us in trouble. But I think it's a good one.

And, as we all know, I'm big into getting in trouble.

Reid/Rosy

[cygninae]

Yeah I know but listen.

Think Chris can be in NYC on the 12th? Because Zav lives there. And I don't give a shit about this dance. But I'll pretend to give a shit until we get to NYC.

Reid/Rosy

[browbeats]

[........] I don't see why he couldn't.

Do you think we'll be unsupervised enough that we can just like [...] leave?

Reid/Rosy

[cygninae]

Sure. They think everyone wants to be there right? We're all signing up because they think we care about [...] whatever this is about.

Reid/Rosy

[browbeats]

Etiquette and networking, I'm pretty sure. And I'm sure my name is already on the list.

[.........] But I wouldn't hate avoiding some of the people that'll be there until at least Christmas break.

Reid/Rosy

[cygninae]

I don't care about either of those things.

Cool. Want to go with me and then ditch? You can meet up with Chris and I can meet up with Zav. It'll be way more fun than what Addy described.

Reid/Rosy

[browbeats]

Obviously that would be more fun than pretending to be impressed by pictures from Lavender du Pont's humanitarian mi summer vacation. [...] Let me make some pros and cons lists and make sure Sy isn't planning to ditch just for the hell of it.

I mean what are they going to do, take my our badges If Mom and Dad fi

But you know this won't be great for your future in high society.

[addytives]

Cotillion is like, Latin for Fancy Moms Torture Ritual Tradition and the hardest part is holding on to your champagne glass while your will to live is slowly sucked out of your barely-breathing-bc-of-all -that-tulle form!!!!

[cygninae]

Cool. Cool. Yeah. Sounds awful.

You going?

[addytives]

I’m afraid so.

[cygninae]

Sorry.

I think I might too though. I'm [.........] way into networking and etiquette curious?.

[addytives]

That's all right. They’re like. Survivable with the right strategy.
That’s still a v brave choice.

[cygninae]

Yeah I think I know how to handle it. [...] I'll just stand around and not talk.

Are people mean or something?

[heyitsnia]

Aw, I bet approaching it like a nature documentary could at least notch it up from survivable to NEARLY tolerable.

[ulixes]

Aw, c'mon now. You make it sound like someone ought to be reading our last rites.

[addytives]

Shouldn’t they??

[ulixes]

A little party never killed anyone.

[casperkim]

Already signed up, then?

[ulixes]

Fixin' to. It's a good time. [...] Am I gonna see you there?

[heyitsnia]

Sounds like a trip to an alien planet to me.

[cygninae]

Right? Rich people are weird.

[...] Sorry everyone.

[heyitsnia]

You know you have too much money when you need more than one fork.

[cygninae]

[...] Fuck I'm going to have to memorize things about forks.

[heyitsnia]

Pithy facts to share with our peasant families.

[cygninae]

My mom'll make fun of me if I come home fancy.
