{Early Evening- Tuesday, 29th June ~ Day 394}
{Crossroads DanceHall}
Tonight I'm gonna have myself a real good time
I feel alive
And the world turning inside out, yeah
And floating around in ecstasy, so
Don't stop me now
Don't stop me
'Cuz I'm having a good time, having a good time
It is finally time to open the doors.
The lights are on- thanks to a couple folks from the fair who came out to help me with 'em. And the musics' done warming up now- sounds of instruments tuning and and the player's psyching each other up have given over to songs playing and feet stomping along.
A few brave souls have opened the dancing and there are mostly smiles all around.
So far so good.
A lot of the younger set know me by now from hiring them for the clean-up, and I put up some signs around town, so hopefully we'll have a good turn out.
And now that the greater part of the haying is done, people are in a good mood. People like to dance and come out and see each other when they're happy. Even in a strange town like this that holds true.
Smooth my skirt as I circle the floor towards the drink stand. I'll probably take a few turns of my own tonight, but mostly my job is to meet people who don't know me yet and get them to like me enough to come back. If the night continues like this, I do think it'll turn out fine.
The band starts another song, and I find my smile is genuine.
(The DanceHall is open to all! Come on in and have fun!)

"There's your window." Nod to Verite who's alone now. "Let her know I'll walk her home in she wants an escort." I add. 'Ri's one of 'the girls', and I feel rather protective of them. Silly, she's a woman running her own buisness... but she'll always be one of the girls to me.

"No real gift for it, matter of minding others. Leaves me hesitating, when I'd rather not have her after me." Shrug and glance up as he nods towards her.
"There's your window."
Turn to catch sight of what he's seeing, and Ri's taken herself off and away--can't really say along, not in this crowd. "Let her know I'll walk her home in she wants an escort," and I look at him curious a moment, then nod. Well enough I know they're both from the Carnivale; only sometimes it slips my mind, and it's near to startling to recall.
"I'll give word," I say. Well. Sooner begun, sooner done, and I finish my drink, touch his shoulder as I stand, and cross to see her (http://estdeus-innobis.livejournal.com/452344.html#t11380472).

Rise from my comfortable spot and give her a nod.
"No problem. Why don't you swing by tomorrow or so? We Can grab a bite to eat." I offer. Touch her shoulder, light, then head over to where I last saw 'Ri (http://estdeus-innobis.livejournal.com/452344.html?thread=11422712#t11422712).
