DJ Zazzy Yas was honored to be invited to DJ for the End of Summer Spectacular Event. This was her first event not associated with her employer at Reilly Recording Inc or her home of Bristle Crios. She had no idea who half of the singers on her requested playlist were, but she was bound and determined to do a good job. She put in a request and got all of the sound and technical equipment she needed from Reilly Recording, where she hosted her radio show on WHAM! 101.1. With good music and sound equipment, she was ready to knock everyone?s socks off.

It was with a heavy heart and much battling of tears that Riley got dressed for the first night of the weekend long Goodbye to Summer Spectacular. She carefully slipped into the royal purple gown that her best friend--former best friend?--had selected and looked at herself critically in the mirror.

She looked like a goddess but felt like the lowest of the low. She missed Duci so much but was afraid it was too late now, too late to mend the burned bridges, too late to take back all the ugly words said in anger.

She put make-up on, did her hair, and slipped into the jewels Duci had sent along with the dress and the shoes. Then she went and slipped her arm into David's and sighed heavily. "I feel like such a fraud," she whispered.

David kissed the crown of her head and whispered back, "So talk to her."

Riley nodded. "If she's there tonight, I will. Even if he is around. If not, I'll find her this weekend."

"Good girl," David said. "Let's go. The belle of the ball can't be late for her own party."

The Say Goodbye To Summer event has her eagerly awaiting two festivities in particular; one of them being 'Monte Carlo Night at the Imperial Grand Rhy'Din Casino'.

Shy has decided to wear this elegant black chiffon dress with light-catching rhinestone beading on the shoulder strap and empire waist applique. Perhaps the beautiful evening gown will bring her luck at the gaming tables. And hopefully a dance or three!

Duci's pick is an elegant red dress. Ready to gamble and dance and be all sorts of wild.

((OOC: I'm pretty sure I'll have zero internet access, but even if I can't be there, you can expect Duci to have made an appearance somewhere!))

As if Max and Mataya would miss a big night out! And for once, neither of them are engaged in the current performance at the Shanachie, so they've actually made an effort with their appearance. Who'da thunk it?!

As one of the hotel's owners, David would be fully dressed-up for Monte Carlo night.

The event was a little more highbrow than the Busted Knuckle Garage where Jackie usually spent her time, but she figured... what the hell? If she got to Monte Carlo Night and she didn't fit in, she would end the evening being the best dressed girl at a dive bar.

For the evening Ander ConColor had decided to wear a formal suit but with a twist, his mandarin collar shirt was of deep emerald crysilk, a gold tiger eye stud, button cover over the collar button, and matching cuff links, the shirt hugging his body to show off his build but loose enough to allow full flexibility,( under the shirt on both arms he wore his wrist bows just in case) over this an open mahogany three quarter length jacket in the same mandarin style over the right side chest pocket the ConColor insignia an ember oval with emerald vertical center stripe mid-thigh leather dress boots were worn under dress pants of the same color as his jacket and fit as his shirt. On the ring finger of his left hand his crystal joining ring and on the same finger of his right the ring bearing the ConColor insignia
Beard and mustache tight trimmed and shaped, his hair worn loose and combed back

Being Overlord didn't mean Candy didn't work the usual shift. She'd be there to call duels of swords. Course, being Candy... she's not dressing up.
