→THE┋✸ BASIC ✖INFO ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ X X X X X X o1. FOLLOW GAIA'S RULES AND TOS, AS WELL AS THE GUILD'S RULES.I know, I know, I've probably said this somewhere else, but it's still important. Seriously, those rules are there for a reason. No excessive gore, sex written in black and white in a post, cursing every other word, etc.; you get the point. Also, make sure to take a look at the rules for events before you begin posting. And just...don't be evil; that covers pretty much everything I think.X X X X X X o2. LITERACY EXPECTATIONS WILL CONTINUE TO BE ENFORCED IN THE EVENT.An event it may be, but the guild's standards are 250+ per post, and since the event is in the guild, the standards will remain the same. Write as much as you'd like; the more, the better~! Just don't spend 1000 words describing the shape of the clouds or something - got it?X X X X X X o3. THE EVENT THREAD WILL BE OPEN FROM MONDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 2012 TO THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 2012.So, before that day, I'll be reserving posts and all, but members will not be allowed to post quite yet. I'll open it with some kind of post that says "open", and will send a guild announcement stating that it is open for posting. This time, the thread will be open for ten days, to give roleplayers more time to get in replies. One of the Mods will write a warning on the ninth day in the thread to wrap up RPs, and the thread will be locked with another post by a Mod on the tenth day. Participation in the event isn't required but is definitely encouraged!X X X X X X o4. WE WILL BE TAKING SONG REQUESTS FOR THE EVENT.Anyone who wishes for a specific song to be played during the event may send a PM to either me or Bara the Mercenary stating the song name, artist/band, and link (YouTube only please!). We reserve the right to decline your request if the lyrics are too inappropriate. It can be sent before the event begins and as it is going on as well; songs will be posted by a Mod every ten posts. Also, the username that requested the song will be posted too, so if you would like to remain anonymous, please include that in the PM. WE ARE CURRENTLY IN NEED OF MORE SONG REQUESTS FROM GUILD MEMBERS.X X X X X X o5. LASTLY, HAVE FUN!It may sound a little obvious, but that's what these events are for; we want the guild members to have some fun with their characters outside of the normal Camp Half-Blood setting. And, you know, we'd like a few couples and some activity too.▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪

☀SET✮TING⇄ THE ❛( SCENE」 ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ♥ X X X X X EVERYONE KNEW BY LUNCH. Two weeks from the dance, the campers had realized just what had been keeping the Aphrodite cabin so darned excited for the past week or so. It was rather sudden; they had simply expected another regular Valentine's Day at camp - nothing special. But then a surprise popped up for everyone that attended Camp Half-Blood, whether they were in New York at the time or halfway around the world, in a neat little invitation black as night with a perfect long-stemmed red rose attached to it. They appeared in the pages of a novel, in the back pocket of the jeans a camper was going to wear that day, and even underneath various stacks of pancakes during breakfast. Once opened, flowery handwriting could be seen on the page, the paper itself smelling of over-priced designer perfume, which could only ever mean it had come from the wonderful Aphrodite cabin. The invitation itself read of an Eros' Masquerade Ball to be held on February the fourteenth. Naturally, it didn't take long for the campers to be buzzing with excitement as well, and the usual order of events occurred, leading up to the much awaited day.♥ X X X X X IT WAS TIME. During February, the norm is freezing days and even more freezing nights in New York. Not at Camp Half-Blood though; thanks to the camp's magical borders, the weather was rather mild the night of the dance, with a slightly chilling breeze blowing by and causing shivers to run down the backs of the campers scurrying towards the well lit dining pavilion. It was dusk, the horizon tinged a magnificent indigo slowly fading to an endless black the higher gazes turned upwards. The campers themselves were dressed in all sorts of colorful costumes, masks hiding the upper part of their faces from view, the very essence of attendees to a masquerade ball. Some campers were holding hands and others weren't; what else was new? Their path to the dining pavilion was marked by a soft carpet of red rose petals, stubbornly resisting to be marked, ripped, or moved at all from their original positions by the heels and loafers stepping mercilessly upon them. Beautifully designed paper orbs of light lit the way in the dim setting of the camp to the pavilion, the stars twinkling extra brightly on that specific night. The chatter of the campers was soft, hushed, almost as if they seemed to sense that anything too loud would seem out of place there.♥ X X X X X NO ONE EXPECTED MUCH DIFFERENT FROM THE CHILDREN OF THE GODDESS OF LOVE. Everything was absolutely stunning. The dining pavilion was decorated as it had never been before; rose vines twisted elegantly around the pillars of the structure, the roses sprouting from them as lush and perfect as could be. It was lit with Japanese lanterns strung along the pillars, spotlights lying in the grass, pointing lights of different colors inside so that it wasn't very bright, but no one was bumping into each other because of the lack of light. Twelve large circular tables were arranged in a circle around the edge of the dining pavilion. They were covered with a silky, spotless tablecloth, a large scented candle in the middle of each, their bright flames hardly flickering despite the wind as red and white roses lay in a loose circle around each candle. Six ornately gilded chairs were arranged around each table, for parties of more than two, with plenty of room left to spare. In the middle of the dance floor could be seen campers dancing accordingly to the music playing at the time, which could be heard loud and clear throughout the pavilion. A table was tucked away neatly at the back of the pavilion, commandeered by a satyr and a wood nymph, decorated much the same as the other tables. A laptop lay running on the table, playing songs from a list of those requested by campers through large speakers, the music clear and high def. And of course, what would a dance be without refreshments? Another table identical to the one at the back of the pavilion was set up at the side, causing a break in the circle of tables. Upon it lay the usual dance goodies, but more of the kind you would find at an expensive restaurant. Among the liters of Coke, Pepsi, and Mountain Dew were bottles of sparkling apple and grape juice, the closest thing to wine without the actual alcohol in it Chiron would allow. Serving dishes with multiple racks were stacked high with the normal sugar cookies, pristine cupcakes, and decadent brownies as well as the more foreign, sugary goodies such as crème brûlée, éclairs, mousse au chocolat (chocolate mousse), among other things.♥ X X X X X THERE WAS A PLACE FOR THOSE THAT WISHED FOR PRIVACY THOUGH. Well, several places actually. You didn't really believe the Aphrodite campers to be so inconsiderate to the camp's couples, did you? Lovely white gazebos were set up away from the dining pavilion, but still near enough so that the ears of the campers in one could faintly hear the music playing inside. A majority were in the sight of the lake, where several gorgeous swans were fluttering their wings, their white feathers vibrant against the dark waters; the gods only know how Aphrodite's children had managed to convince Chiron about that one. The gazebos themselves were small, but there was still enough room for a simple box step to be performed inside it. Twinkle lights curled themselves around the gazebos' pillars and grates beneath, flower bushes of rose and jasmine surrounding the structure, filling the air with an almost intoxicating scent. Small speakers were set up in the corners of the small roofs, soothing classical music coming from them that was perfect for a waltz. This is the perfect place for couples to do whatever they'd like in private, away from the eyes of other campers, as the vast majority of camp can guess fairly well they would not be welcome butting in on someone's make out fest. Though, anyone who simply wants to stay out of the public eye may come here as well, as it is extremely peaceful, quiet, and out of the way.▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪
