Re: Samarkand

Parker snickered. "Right. Anakin and Angel have to do that soon anyway, why not get in some practice? And ooo, sounds great. I still haven't decided whether to go in red or black at this point." She scowled. "I'd ask Jarod, but I don't want him thinking his opinion is the deciding factor."

"They do?" Isabel giggled. "Why? And has anyone told them that?" She stepped back and studied Parker. "You could pull off either color really well. So it's really a question of style. What do they look like? Is one the black one you showed me yesterday?"

Re: Samarkand

"For fighting. Rory pouted and badgered and used logic on Anakin, Callisto threatened Angel, and thus they are forced to 'kiss and make up'. That'll teach them to try to out-testosterone each other." Parker grinned. "One is that black one, they both have leg-slits and are sleeveless, but the red has more skin showing, and is more complicated. I can't decide if the red is too much for a Prom, or if hair up and a wrap will tone down the skin factor."

Re: Samarkand

"Oh that will definitely be fun to see," she grinned. "Hopefully they'll learn their lesson. You could pull off complicated, you've got the maturity and the sophistication for it. Of course you might leave Jarod speechless all night."

"And the red dress pulls ahead in the Prom race again...." Parker snickered. "I have no idea when Braid-boy and Brood-boy are kissing, but I plan on being there to mock. And head-thwap, if necessary." She took a step back from the backdrop, and her shoulders relaxed. "It does look good, doesn't it? And Jake's doing great with Hamunptra. That only leaves five other things to stress about."

Re: Samarkand

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"No stressing. It's not good for you." Isabel grinned wickedly, "I'll tell Jarod!" She looked around the room as well, "It all looks wonderful. Even Angel's volcano. So relax. Besides, if anything is glaringly wrong tomorrow night, I can try and fix it for you."

Re: Samarkand

"You would? God, you rock." Parker's shoulders slumped in relief. "Right. Backdrops. DVD players. Set-up tomorrow... And no! No telling Jarod!" She grumbled under her breath, but looked amused. "Nag, nag, nag from him, no, I don't need that."

Re: Samarkand

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"I've got skillz, I might as well use them," she said and then she giggled. "I'll tell Jarod, the ultimate blackmail tool. I'll have to keep that in mind."

Re: Samarkand

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

Parker looked appalled. "Okay, you rock, but you're evil. Jeeez."

Re: Samarkand

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"That's what they tell me. But I'll only use it if it's a dire situation," she promised. The veils where a little bland so Isabel carefully applied just a bit of glitter to them for added sparkle. "So I have a question."

Re: Samarkand

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

Parker admired the glitter effect, then put her paintbrush down. "Sure. Shoot."

Re: Samarkand

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

Isabel attempted to look pathetic, which was pretty hard to achieve considering she kept giggling and had glitter smeared across her cheek. "Since I'm dateless and all, do you think I could borrow Jarod for a dance at some point in the evening?"

Re: Samarkand

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

Parker laughed, then threatened Isabel with her paintbrush. "Just bring him back in the same condition you found him in!" Snickering, she added, "I already told Janet I'd prod him into dancing with her, because she's technically dateless too, and saying she won't dance. Keep in mind, I have no idea if he's a good dancer or not-- he did okay at the New Year's Dance, but we've never been out dancing before." She pouted. "Last dance is mine, though!"

Re: Samarkand

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Absolutely! I just want to dance," she said. "I wouldn't worry, about how well he dances. Somehow I think he'll do just fine. And yay! That's makes at least three dances. Angel, Archie and Anakin have all promised me one and I can probably talk Xander into it as well. That's less time as a wallflower."

Re: Samarkand

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"I'm going to have to find MacBeth and dance with him anyway. I can't believe he's advertising for a date on the radio." Parker sighed, and face-palmed. "Right. I declare Samarkand open for visitors. Let's see how the rest of the Lost Cities are doing."
