OOC: Other then the dance itself, the only thing I have left to do is have Clay ask Daring. Clay is waiting for the opportunity so you can time that as you see fit.

ooc: Okay, moving to the girls getting ready and Clay can do his thing now so he can convince Daring by the time the dance starts and that way they'd only be a little late getting to it.
The girls finally went to sleep and got up late the next morning. The rest of the day went by quickly and soon the three friends were frantically getting ready for the dance. Ever was still swaying between going and not going, although she didn't resist as Tor helped her get ready. Mith was calm as she got ready, too calm for Tor. And Tornado was pretty much expressing all the excitement and panic for the three of them as made sure that she and her two friends were looking their best. Daring on the other hand had opted out of helping the others get ready tonight. She was pretty sure that helping the others was going to make her wish she could join them and she didn't need that to dampen her mood even further as she laid on her bed wondering what she could do to help her ignore the music that would be coming from the school.

OOC: Not sure how Clay is supposed to do anything while she's in the girls down, but ok. I'll roll with it.
BIC: *ting* Came the light tap of a small pebble against Daring's window. This was subsequently followed by the large thud and squish of a wad up mud hitting the wall next to the window.

ooc: Where did you think she was going to be? The noise caught Daring's attention and she rolled off her bed and walked over to open the window. "Cloud? Is that you?" She asked looking out.

Clay was waving from down below, "Hey! Got a moment?" he called up to her.

"Oh, it's you." Daring said with a deep sigh. "What do you want?"

"To talk." Clay called up again, "Can you come down so I'm not blasting to your neighbors too?"
OOC: My play is going to be a little worse then yesterday given the character I'm playing in and the events of today.

"Fine, it's not like I have anything better to do." She mumbled to herself as she flew out the window and down to Clay. "Why are you still bothering me?" She asked.

"I'm here to ask you to the dance." Clay said calmly with a small, hopeful, smile.

"So, will you go to the dance with me?" Clay asked, not sure if she meant she'd go or if she'd just understood he'd ask her.

"No!" Daring told Clay. "Why on earth would you think that I'd go to the dance with you? Just because I'm staying home tonight and all my friends are there, do you think I'd go with the first colt that asked me? Please tell me, because right now I'm seriously curious about how a pony like you process thoughts."

Clay just waited calmly, still smiling lightly, and when Daring was finished simply replied, "Yes." Giving a small pause before continuing. "Because you're an adventurer and I can assure you that there's much more adventure to be had going to the dance with yours truly then twiddling your hooves at home trying to figure out what you're going to do to drown out the music of everyone else having fun."

Daring burst out in laughter. "If going with you to the dance was an adventure I'd have given up adventuring a long time ago. And I assure you, going through my gym bag would be more of an adventure right now."
Tor, Mith and Ever stepped out of the dorm, all dressed up for the dance. Mith had her plain dress on, but the jewelry she borrowed from Daring did make up for it and fitted Mithrel well. Not too loud, but presenting a strong presence. Tornado had a yellowish dress on with silver sparkling embroidery that went well with her own blue shaded mane and orange coat. Her mane was also done up for once making her look almost like anther filly. Ever's dress however was on a completely different level. The dress was custom made to bring out every feature about Ever. Her pearl coat, her eyes, her mane. Everything was enhanced by the silver dress. It was a dress made for her and wouldn't fit any other pony nearly as well.

"Are you saying that the dance isn't an adventure or that Going with me wouldn't be? The way I see it, adventures are fun and dances are fun and You can't possibly have more fun at a dance as an adventurer then to go with a fellow adventurer." Clay said confidently. Dex was pacing back and forth as Cloud finished fixing his collar and bowtie. Dex stopped and looked over at Cloud, "Dude, what if I mess this up. I'm already outclassed, what if she doesn't show." Cloud walked up to Clay and straightened his suit vest and Tie, "Calm down and enjoy the night. Show her a good time and I'm sure you'll have fun too. Afterall, Tor and Mith won't let her just sit idle for the night." He said and walked out. "But..." Dex uttered and was cut short by Cloud saying nope and continuing on. The exchange continued out the room and out of the building. OOC: *Wipes brow* I've done what I can...

"No, I'm not saying dances are not fun." daring said after a pause. "I think adventuring is a lot more fun though. But it's mostly just going with you." She said bluntly. "Okay, you're an adventurer. I get it. I'd rather let my adventuring speak for me, let my adventures show I'm an adventurer, but whatever. I'm also strongly leaning towards you being a stalker, since that does speak for itself. So how are we going to have fun at the dance if I'd rather spill punch over you and then give you one, than actually wanting to dance with you?"
Storm landed in front of Tor. He was dressed in a good looking black and white suit. "Hi Tor. Wow, you look just, wow." He told her. He also noticed Ever, who couldn't be helped but noticed, but made sure not to stare at her. "Hi Storm." Tor said beaming. "You look pretty great too." "So this is the famous Storm we've been hearing about." Mith said. "It's a pleasure to finally meet you." "Same here." Storm said. "Tor has said so much about her friends that I feel I already know you." He said, awkwardly rubbing the back of his neck.

"That's fine,we don't have to dance if you don't want to, I know how out of necessity but there's more to a school dance then just the dance." Clay stopped and thought for a bit, "Hmm... How about this. You join me to a dance and I promise to show you a good time, and should I fail to do that I'll let you in on an epic adventure I have planned for later. We might not make the next best discovery so close to home, but a bit of spelunking and a swim to a hidden section of the cave in question is a perfect way to test the adventuring spirit. Then our actions would prove that we're both adventurers more then our words ever would. How does that sound? And to be fair, I'll let you join my adventure even if you do have a good time at the dance." Clay offered.
Dex and Cloud were walking up to Ever, Mith, and Tor and they both noticed the four ponies a way out. Dex just happened to not be able to see Ever past Storm as they made their approach. Cloud waved as they got closer.

"You can't go to the dance without dancing." Daring said. "and how does that change me throwing punch all over you, because that may actually be fun, but doesn't mean I've enjoyed the dance. How can you possibly make the dance fun for me while I'm going with you." Daring had another pause. "And what cave are you talking about? Because I'll let you know that I've done extensive, and I mean extensive, research and haven't found any place near town to explore."
"Looks like our dates are here." Mith said. "Will we head on out Tor?" Storm asked. "I just want to see my friends off, it won't take long." Tor answered. "Of course, anything for you." Storm answered.

"But I doubt you've looked at the places that seem to have been completely explored. There's a cave in town with a pool, and in that pool is an underwater cave only just big enough to fit a colt or filly. Lights don't shine into the cave and it's a cave in the middle of town, so the adults haven't bothered looking further into it. I, on the other hoof, have swam through that space and found the opening on the other side. The cave goes much, much deeper." Clay said and took a step back, "But, if you don't want to go to the dance then you must not want to visit the underwater cave either. I can have fun at the dance alone and then explore the cave, also alone, Or you could go with me to the dance and then I'll show you the true good time afterwards. Consider it a test of faith." Once closer, Dex was blown away by Ever's dress as he felt both completely outclassed and, for the moment, like the luckiest colt on campus. Cloud greeted the group with a slight bow of the head, "Good Evening girls, Mith, you look lovely tonight, the dress suits you very well." He said with a bright smile. "Hello Ever. Umm... Didn't think it was possible, but you look more stunning then you normally do." Dex said with an obviously nervous smile, "Thanks for coming out tonight." OOC: Couldn't remember what I types before so I rewrote the whole thing.

"I never thought about that." Daring said, a little disappointed in herself. She looked back to Clay. "Well, it looks like you've got me at a disadvantage. But how do I know you're not trying to trick me? You still haven't told me why you want to go with me to the dance. What's in this for you?"

ooc: I just got a sudden feeling that I forgot something in this thread. "Thanks." Mith answered Cloud. "You look very handsome as well." "Thank you Dex." Ever said blushing a little. "And thank you for asking me." "If you'll excuse us gentlecolts and fillies." Storm spoke up. "But I'm going to steal Tornado away from you now. The night is short and I want to enjoy every second with her." Tor giggled. "Okay. Remember to enjoy yourselves everypony." She winked at Ever.

Clay's smile dropped for just a moment as he looked down before it returned, "Well, I just want to apologize. I called to question you being an adventurer and that was out of line. I can't right that wrong but I can at least try and make up for it." He said, taking another step back, though this time is was more him stepping back from the situation then trying to mess with Daring as earlier.
"Shall we?" Cloud asked Mith, stepping to the side and holding out his hoof for then to continue. "It was my pleasure." Dex replied to Ever, "I guess we can go to the dance from here, yes?"

"So, you asking me to the dance is to apologize?" Daring asked Clay.
Mith nodded as she took Cloud's hoof. "I suppose so." Ever said as she fell in next to Dex. Tor and Storm took to the sky and made their way to the dance through the air.

"Well... Yeah, at least, that's the intention." Clay said for the first time not brimming with his usual confidence.
Cloud started towards the dance as Tor and Storm flew off. Dex followed behind, but made sure to stick close to Ever for fear that she'd leave or something along those lines. "So," Cloud started as they walked, "What kind of music do you like Mith? Do you dance often?" he asked, eyes forward but his voice clearly directing the question mostly to Mith.

"Alright." Daring told Clay. "I can't promise I'll be a pleasant date though, but I guess I can give you a chance. And I want to know about this cave."
"I like rock." Mith answered Cloud. "Because my family are masons."
Tor and Storm got the the dance first and it was quite a spectacle. Everything was brightly decorated, music and lights filled the air and ponies were all over the place. "Wow, they really know how to through a dance around here." Tor said as she took everything in. "Well, Manehattan has its good points." Storm said. "And so does Cloudsdale. Would you like to dance?" "Of course. That's why we're here after all." Tor replied as he two headed for the dance floor.

Clay's demeanor brightened considerably, "So you'll go? Great!" He said excited, "Thank you for giving me the chance." He added, regaining his composure... "I guess I should go get ready then?" He said, taking a third step back now and having put considerable distance between him and her at this point.
Cloud couldn't help but laugh to himself, at least trying to hide it behind his hoof as he wasn't sure if Mith was being serious or not, "I can listen to just about anything, though I'm sure they'll play rock at the dance. Things are pretty diverse at this school." He said, focusing his attention forward, at least for now.

"Yeah, I guess I should put something on as well." Daring said flying back up to her room, but stopping in front of the window. "Hey! Did you throw mud at my wall!?" She asked pointing to the stain next to her window, seeing it for the first time.
"You're a pretty diverse pony as well." Mith told Cloud, a small smile at the edge of her mouth. Ever was silently walking next to Dex, not sure what she was suppose to say.

Clay was already gone, hoofing it all the way to the Boys dorm at this point. He'd covered a lot of ground, especially for a Unicorn.
"Do you dance well?" Cloud asked to keep the conversation going, "You've seen the extent of my dancing."
Dex was also walking quietly as he thought. He took a breath and thought that he must be making Ever nervous by being so nervous himself. He needed to lighten up and stop being such a party pooper, "So Ever, I take it you've been out dancing before? That dress was clearly made for you, so there must have been another occasion when you wore it." he said brightly and with a wide smile, trying to get more upbeat then before.

Daring gave a huff as she headed inside and put on her dress after a bit of searching for it.
"I don't get much chance to." Mith answered. "But Silver did teach me the basics."
"Actually I've never danced before." Ever answered. "And this is the first time I've worn this dress. I never thought I'd get to wear it."

Clay put on a grey fedora and sweater vest, the hat sporting a fine black feather. He looked it over and thought the sweater vest wouldn't work. Felt too Jock wannabe. He switched that for a white shirt and black tie that still matched the hat and walked through the small spritz of cologne in the air. Nothing overpowering, just barely noticeable.
"That's good, at least one of us will look like we know what we're doing." Cloud said with a wide grin.
"Really? Well I'm glad I was given the gift of seeing you in it first. And We can learn together. I think dancing is very fun." Dex said very optimistically. The dance was now upon them as they approached the building.
