《Mages and Wizards》16. Yule ball
Advertisement
Natsu and gray both sweat dropped. They knew that their meals weren't that good - actually, they knew it sucked. They were too scared to meet Miras devious glare, that all they could do was stare at the ground.
Mira sighed a bit and returned to her usual form. Natsu and gray looked up when they saw that she turned back to normal and had a little bit of hope that she would let them off the hook. She had her usual cheerful look on her face and gave the two a closed eye smile. The two sighed, hoping that they would be able to get back to their usual outfits and out of the dresses.
Mira stopped her smile and opened her eyes to glare at them. "I'm letting you off the hook this time," the both of them had their spirits risen a little bit at that statement. "But you have to keep the dresses on for the rest of the day." The two frowned a little bit, but the smiled slightly again.
"Guys, Dumbledore wants to see all of us again." Levy said barging in out of no where. The entire school - including Beauxbatons and Durmstrang - were present to see what the announcement was. "To celebrate completing the first task, we will be having a ball; the Yule ball, to be exact."
Mumbles were heard all around. Most of them were just wondering what a 'yule ball' was.
"I believe I should elaborate," everyone immediately shut up. "The Yule Ball is a tradition of the Triwizard Tournament. It is a formal dance held on the evening of Yule (the pagan Winter solestice/Christmas celebration) of a tournament year, and is opened by the tournament champions and their partners."
Everyone understood it better (except for the dim witted dragon slayer) and Mira was deciding ships.

A couple days later, about a week before the Yule ball, Mira was setting up supposedly 'perfect' meetings fro all of her ships that she was determined to make into actual relationships.
"Done," mira stood in front of her brilliance. There was one single working street lamp that shone directly onto the ground, making it look like a spotlight. She set up some romantic (ish) music in the background, subtly making the mood a bit more romantic.
She also added some background; a screen, sort of, that showed a park in the dead of night that spread around at least a couple hundred meters. She amplified the effects of everything with magic.
To top it all off, Mira thought that one scenario wasn't enough, she just had to create not one, but two.
The second one she made was a secluded brown, wooden table, made for two. Covered in a crimson red cloth that aligned perfectly on the sides with chairs and the other two sides of the rectangular table came halfway down. They were shaped in a 'v' shape, all of the cloth embroidered with a sparkly, gold ribbon, that at the same time of being sparkly, it was also dulled.
On the table laid a set of pure white plates, cutlery and napkins. The plates had a streak, swirled on the edges, barley noticeable. The forks and spoons had the top half of a heart on the edge of the pure white, metallic cutlery. The half heart was doubled into two, one half on the inside, smaller, while the same half but bigger on the top. The knives were normal, except for the fact that the handle felt like silk, it was smooth and soft (somehow) even though everything was metal.
There were candles of all sizes surrounding the table, scented, to make the aroma more alluring. There was one large candle and one medium (ish) size candle in the center of the table. Surrounding them were different types of flowers - mostly red roses - placed to make everything look angled. There were some different fake fruits that blended in with the mood. Of course, it just had to be enhanced with magic.

Really, all she did was watch a couple of cheesy movies from this world and take some scenes from them.
Mira was determined to make her ships sail. No matter what stands in her way, she would make sure they became cannon.
