[9:38][DOIC2]Sereya Eren@liorexu:*The little Argo's wheels spun in the air as Li lifted it up.
[9:38][DOIC2]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:Gotcha
[9:39][DOIC2]Sereya Eren@liorexu:[Adrian] "No, fa, put down!" *He demanded.

[9:41][DOIC2]Sereya Eren@liorexu:[Ettore] "...Were you the one who broke it?
[9:41][DOIC2]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:*Li chases after it.
[9:41][DOIC2]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:[Bore] "I wanted to know how it works...
[9:41][DOIC2]Sereya Eren@liorexu:[Ettore] "Well, at least you took it apart before you could shoot your cousin's other eye out.
[9:42][DOIC2]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:[Bore] -I- wasn't the one who shot his first one out either. He did that all by himself.
[9:42][DOIC2]Sereya Eren@liorexu:[Ettore] "I know... he told me the story and showed me the pictures he took of the fresh wound.
[9:43][DOIC2]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:[Bore] *Sighs nostalgically.* "Yupp. Things were simpler back home.

[9:46][DOIC2]Sereya Eren@liorexu:[Ettore] "...Pretty sure his dad'll want to do that. Besides, what do you know how to drive that isn't over four centuries old?

[9:54][DOIC2]Sereya Eren@liorexu:*A crowd of Beryxians scattered to make room for Adrian as he beeped his little horn.
[9:55][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[Talia] -arrivies in full dress uniform, having dragged Xae along as well on theholodeck as they find a seat

[10:05][DOIC2]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:*Li heads over to Adrian, picking him up out of the Argo.
[10:06][DOIC2]Sereya Eren@liorexu:[Adrian] "Waaaaaaaaaaaaugh!" *He wailed and flailed his little fists ad the injustice of it all.

[10:14][DOIC6]Sereya Eren@liorexu:trip already.
[10:14][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:**The broadcast begins with a view from within a 19th century Earth horse and carriage, open-topped with a driver and coachman attired in federal period clothing appropriate for the weather. *
[10:14][DOIC2]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:See? The doggies are talking to each other
[10:14][DOIC2]Sereya Eren@liorexu:[Adrian] "Woof!" *He barked back at Boggles.
[10:14][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:**The carriage maneuvers through a near-silent park but for the clip-clop of hooves and distant city noises. Snow lays just off walks and streets in thick layers, and ice coats the bare limbs of
[10:15][DOIC2]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:Doggies say woof
[10:15][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:deciduous trees that line the park streets just behind the gaslamps.*
[10:15][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[Liz] Yes I heard...-lowers her voice as the performance begins- if you need anything as that progress let me know -her voice barely a whisper now
[10:15][DOIC2]Sereya Eren@liorexu:[Adrian] "Woofs say woof woof, grrrr." *he informed him matter-of-factly.
[10:15][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:**Several minutes of anticipation build as the carriage is traveling down the street. The carriage comes into a line of several others offloading their passengers in front of a red brick building
[10:15][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:with white marble and wrought iron fixtures. *
[10:16][DOIC2]Valkriss@Isis:[Mr Boggles] -faster tail waggies- bark Bark Bark...grrrrr grrrr
[10:16][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:**The snow and ice decorate the trees and is lit by the lamps, but none can be seen on the street or walk as the carriage pulls up to the door and your perspective changes to one stepping onto the
[10:16][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:manicured walk and then up the marble stairs to the grand 5-meter tall arch filled with a leaded glass valance over oaken double doors.*
[10:16][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:** *
[10:17][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[Talia] -smiles a the immersion of it all
[10:17][DOIC6]Sereya Eren@liorexu:*Eren gave a slight nod, maintaining her attention on the holoshow.
[10:17][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:**The great doors open inward, and the view comes into a matching arch within but the doors are of a much darker hue. A swirl of air seems to rush and a sense of warmth as the great inner doors open
[10:17][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[Liz] -sips her drink as she allows herself to be swept up into the moment
[10:17][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:inward allowing the viewer to enter a mostly bare hall. The floors are of a black and white checkerboard marble, with white woodwork around two large doors, one to either side.*
[10:18][DOIC2]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:Doggies say woof and grrr
[10:18][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:**Aside both of doors are wrought iron mirror frames and silver-backed glass mirrors that stand across from each other, with a matching small table under each. *
[10:18][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:** As the view swings side to side, the computer deletes the cameraman and the camera and instead shows the looking glass view of a reflection within a reflection within a reflection of the mirrors.*
[10:18][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[Palomo] -sneaks into the holodeck with a beatifully gowned K'Rika and then swiftly find their seats to slips into the performance experience
[10:18][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:**The sounds of an orchestra, waft through the air, accompanied by singers when appropriate. An usher, dressed in 1800s era butler attire greets silently, and gestures the viewer up the stairs.*
[10:19][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:**The view then focuses ahead again and approaches down the hall toward the great stair that spans half of the nearly four-meter-wide hall. The stair is of polished oak treads, white marble risers
[10:19][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:and a thin-looking red carpet center upon each tread. The Bannister is easily 30cm in diameter and mounted to the stair up the center of the hall by black wrought iron balusters. *
[10:19][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:**The newel post is of matching oak and carved in rich round patterns. The stair turns halfway up the approximately 5 meter rise to turn back to the front of the house. *
[10:19][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:**The rear wall of the hall above is held by a large window facing south, decorated with boughs of holly and red velvet ribbons.*
[10:19][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:**As the viewer mounts the reversed stair, they begin to see the gay candlelights and decorations of the room above, decorated for the season. *
[10:20][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:**The wall to the left and right give way to clear glass-looking barriers with thin oaken banisters above barely visible but for the ribbons hanging from them. *
[10:20][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:**Directly afore, at the top of the stair appears a large alcove and within a grand piano, an ancient Steinway hundreds of years old, only barely partitioned off to the visitors. *
[10:20][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:**Along the right, a balcony-like space is set with only a small number of chairs, mostly occupied, with several dark wooden doors behind them. *
[10:21][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:** The walls are all soft white, accented by white woodwork. The floors as a polished stained oak throughout. The windows three meters tall, and reaching to the cielings.*
[10:22][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:**To the left, where the viewer is drawn though, is a much larger space, with nearly two scores of people in period dress, as well as some in dress uniforms of several services including
[10:22][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:starfleet are being taken to seats and offered refreshments by ... Identical butlers.*
[10:23][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:** An elder gentlmen, somewhat stought and barrel chested makes his way up the stairs just as the last of the guests seem to be finding seats. His black polished walking stick ringing slightly of
[10:24][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[Decia] -whispers to Derek who she had gotten to attend with her as she shares how much she admired the home
[10:24][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:with silver tip on the stair, as he seems to be avoiding placing it on the carpet for effect. He reaches the top of the stair, and with a smile and at touch to his grey goatee, surveys the room with
[10:25][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:pride in his eyes and stance. He clears his throat.
[10:26][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:[Host] "Ladies and gentlemen." *he says and almost imediately the orchestra finds a quieter tone, and fades to nothing, as if rehearsed such.
[10:26][DOIC6]Sereya Eren@liorexu:*Eren had her scotch topped off, remaining quiet to watch.
[10:27][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:"Welcome to the Delancey Foundation annual twelfth night concert. We are very glad you could come.
[10:28][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-Supreme Kommander Domal and his Wife lady Lucina arrived late and quickly slipped into their seat as they joined the holodeck performance. he in full dress andshe in an elegant kzxari evening gown
[10:28][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*He glances over to the left smaller side of the stair as if he is about to say something, and his smile fades a little.
[10:29][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[Liz] -watches carefully as seh cradled her drink
[10:29][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-hoolds Ilys hand from where they had been seated and waits
[10:29][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:"My name is McNale, Mick to all who know me. I stand currently as the provost head of the board of the Foundation, and such it falls to me to welcome you all tonight.
[10:30][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:[Mick] "Well, another year has passed, and we begin this one anew. I would ask that a glass be raised to all those who came before us, and celebrate the heritage they have left us.
[10:31][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*A butler gives him a glass of something that looks like beer in a champagne glass, he raises it, waiting for others, then drinks.
[10:31][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[Domal] and his wife stand to raise their glasses
[10:31][DOIC6]Sereya Eren@liorexu:*Eren lifted her glass to that.
[10:31][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-rasies her glass with Illy

[10:33][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*A light tapping is heard from behind the larger audience, and the small auburn haired doctor comes around from a back hall making tapping sounds with what to appear to be glass 3 inch heels.
[10:34][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-smiles as she watches her arrive
[10:34][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:"Here here" *Dr Delancey calls out lifing her glass from the back of the gathered. She stands in a long cobolt blue gown with a white short waist coat and tails, standing out as not in period dress.
[10:36][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:"I would also propose a toast, to everyone in uniform, here and elsewhere, who help keep us all safe to appreciate and curate this history and craft." *she raises her glass again with a smile,
[10:36][DOIC6]Sereya Eren@liorexu:*She raised her glass again.
[10:37][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-Valkriss raised her glass oncemore

[10:38][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:"Sorry I'm late Mick... " *she looks abashed as she walks around the room to the mirror hall door, and crosses to the smaller seating area, taking the end seat. She sits, crossing her legs carefully
[10:39][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:[Mick] "Ladies and gentlemen, our hostess. Dahlia Anne Delancey, MD. A rare pleasure to have you join us missy." *he winks and goes to sit*
[10:39][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Domal and his wife once more took thieir seats
[10:40][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*The view of the hologram then seems to back away along the staircase, as if to hover over the stairs, providing a direct view of the piano, with the gatherd to either side.*
[10:41][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*Dahlia speaks, and her voice seems amplified, as if using a microphone of some sort, but she doesn't get up.
[10:42][DOIC2]Sereya Eren@liorexu:[Adrian] *His crash seemingly forgotten, he tried to reach to pet the doggo.
[10:42][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:"Every year, I try to assemble something special, something intimate but rich in art. This year, I am proud to announce that I was able to convince one of the modern masters of his craft to come perform for us tonight."

[10:46][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*A wall to the west of the grand piano alcove seems to part, revealing a floor to ceiling mirror within, and an average sized man with dark hair and beard comes out carrying a fine cello of old world

[10:50][DOIC2]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:Uhhh...I don't think that one belongs to us
[10:50][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:**To the viewer, it seems as if the first the walls, then the piano and the pillers around it's alcove, soften and become out of focus... the gathered though some are speaking softly, make not a sound.**
[10:50][DOIC2]Sereya Eren@liorexu:[Adrian] "Why?

[10:51][DOIC6]Sereya Eren@liorexu:"I can always appreciate a musician's finger dexterity," *she grinned as she drank and watched.
[10:51][DOIC2]Sereya Eren@liorexu:[Adrian] "Why?
[10:51][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[Liz] Especially an older very experienced musicia
[10:52][DOIC6]Sereya Eren@liorexu:*Eren nodded in full agreement.
[10:53][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[Lucina] -closes her eeys as the first movement seems to carry her away in the bas thrums of each pull acorss the strings-
[10:53][DOIC2]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:Doggies have owners
[10:53][DOIC2]Sereya Eren@liorexu:[Adrian] *He looked at Boggles, then back at Li.* "Why?
[10:54][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[Decia] I have always loved the Allermande -softly to Derek who nods havingno clue what she just said
[10:54][DOIC2]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:Because they need someone to take care of them
[10:54][DOIC2]Valkriss@Isis:[Mr Boggles] -more tail wags

[10:55][DOIC2]Sereya Eren@liorexu:[Adrian] "...No.
[10:55][DOIC2]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:*Li laughs.* Because we want to take good care of doggies
[10:56][DOIC2]Valkriss@Isis:[Spot] -hands Li a piece of paper that reads simply 'Haha' at that
[10:56][DOIC2]Sereya Eren@liorexu:[Adrian] "Doggy take care of us," *he argued.
[10:57][DOIC2]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:*Li smirks at that.* "But we have to feed and walk doggy
[10:57][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[Decia] Mmmsuch a smooth transition to the Courante -Dereknods still noclue what she means
[10:57][DOIC2]Sereya Eren@liorexu:[Adrian] *He looked at Boggles.* "Feet broke?

[10:59][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[Domal] -liftas hia chin in silent appreciation as he enjoys this performance
[11:01][DOIC2]Sereya Eren@liorexu:[Adrian] "Fa, he walks!" *He pointed.
[11:01][DOIC2]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:*Li nods.* Walking a dog is...walking with them around, making sure they get exercise and they...go to the bathroom like a big bo
[11:02][DOIC2]Sereya Eren@liorexu:[Adrian] "Okay!" *He grabbed Boggles' collar and started marching him around the promenade.
[11:04][DOIC2]Valkriss@Isis:[Mr Biggles] stumbles alittl at first andt hen falls in step with little Adrianlikea good boy
[11:05][DOIC2]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:*Li smiles at Adrian's first 'walk' with Mister Boggles.
[11:05][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[K'Rika] a single tear slipsdown her crimson cheek as sheholds marks hand listening raptly
[11:08][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[Talia] -sits moved as she listens to the Gigure's final moments
[11:08][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:**As everyone applauds, the visual and auditory focus opens and slowly the whole room is once again fully a part of program broadcast. It can be seen to the right, both Mick and Dr Delancey are
[11:08][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:standing as they clap for the artist.*
[11:09][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-stands and applauds along side Illy
[11:09][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[Liz] does likewise
[11:09][DOIC6]Sereya Eren@liorexu:*Eren offered a round of applause, but stayed seated with her drink.
[11:10][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-The Supreme Kommander and his Wife jointhe standing ovation
[11:10][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:**The whole of the room joins in a standing ovation. Somewhere off to the left of valkriss, someone exclaims sharply as a drink is splashed on her, but beyond that, it seems very joyous.
[11:11][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:** Dahlia walk over, stepping behind the partition offering to shake the celloist's hand, saying congratulations, and is taken by surprise as he rests his instrument in the stand there.*
[11:11][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:** Mischa takes her full into a strong hug.*
[11:11][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:** Mick's boisterous voice can be heard as he belly laughs. Dahlia hugs him back, though is blushing brightly. She brushes her hair back over her shoulder and turns back to the assembled. *
[11:11][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-applauds more though looks tosee thelady is okay
[11:12][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:"Please join me in thanking again, Mischa Maisky, and his wonderful talent shared with us tonight.
[11:12][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-more applause for the artist
[11:12][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:* *The applause is palpable. A butler appears, and accepts his bow, then carefully takes the cello back through the mirror door. The same butler seems to tend to the woman with the spilled drink*
[11:12][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[Decia] -criesout- Brav
[11:12][DOIC6]Sereya Eren@liorexu:*Eren applauded again.
[11:13][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[Liz] takes her seat againas shisgiven a fresh drink
[11:14][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:** Several minutes of applause later, Mischa puts his arm around the much smaller woman, causing a bit of shock on her face again, quickly vanishing...
[11:14][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:[Mischa] "I thank you... your family, is my family... Now. I played... you play." *he says with a bit of an accent that says he is from the other side of the world
[11:14][DOIC2]Sereya Eren@liorexu:*After some wandering and marching, Adrian dragged Boggles back to Li.* "I walkeded him.
[11:14][DOIC2]Valkriss@Isis:[Mr boggles] -sits and seems to agree hehas been walked
[11:14][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:"Ah, I.." *Dahlia seems almost like a deer in headlights for a moment. Mick steps in, and she looks to him like he is about to save her.
[11:15][DOIC2]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:Good job
[11:15][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:[Mick] "I think that is a fine idea. In fact, there is a young man who has been practicing all year in the hopes that we might get you to grace us with a bit of your own talent.
[11:15][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-cheers loudly in her klingon brashness- Hear Hear
[11:15][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-isd shushed by Illy
[11:16][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:**Mick makes a waving sign toward the blank wall that holds the mirror door.
[11:16][DOIC2]Sereya Eren@liorexu:[Adrian] *He nodded and looked at Boggles.* "Seepy time," *he informed the dog.
[11:17][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:* A small man, no, boy no more than 17-18 in period dress, of slight build and looking to be of a mixed asian descent come out of the mirror door holding a violin. At first Dahlia doesn't notice.
[11:17][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:[Mischa]* Mischa lets go of Dahlia, and takes the boy by the shoulder and looks back to Dahlia. * "You would not break his heart now would you?
[11:17][DOIC2]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:Adrian seepy
[11:18][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:"Of course not.. Tim isn't it?

[11:18][DOIC2]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:One
[11:18][DOIC2]Sereya Eren@liorexu:[Adrian] "One for doggy?
[11:18][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:[Mick] "Ladies and Gentlemen... when our hostess is with us, there is a song that she seems to play almost without end.. one might suggest, her favorite song...
[11:19][DOIC2]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:Oh no. Chobit bad for doggies

[11:19][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:[Mick] "Timothy Liu here, is one of our scholarship students, referred by the doctor herself into our program because young Tim was so often here, and fascinatd by a particular violin.
[11:19][DOIC2]Valkriss@Isis:[Eirne] -amused=- yes Li
[11:20][DOIC2]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:*Sevuk goes running after Mister Boggles.
[11:20][DOIC2]Sereya Eren@liorexu:*Adrian fell over at Boggles ran off.* "Ow.

[11:21][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:[Mick] "If you would Missy.. Doctor Delancey... he has practiced all year in the hopes that he would get to play alongside you... if you would?
[11:21][DOIC2]Sereya Eren@liorexu:[Adrian] *The dog fur sticking to him wooshed away.
[11:22][DOIC2]Valkriss@Isis:[Eirene] Itis done
[11:22][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*Dahlia wipes a tear from the corner of her eye, leans in and kisses the boy's cheek, they whisper something, nod and she turns toward the audience and nods, obviously emotional, but doen't speak.
[11:22][DOIC2]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:Thank you
[11:22][DOIC2]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:*Li picks up Adrian.* Choblit time

[11:23][DOIC2]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:*Li carries Adrian off for some choblit.
[11:23][DOIC2]Valkriss@Isis:[Eirene] Proper choblit this tim
[11:23][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*Dahlia walks around the piano, lifting the cover and adjusting the bench... then sits, and shows why she was so careful before.
[11:24][DOIC2]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:Of course
[11:24][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*As she sits, the cobolt blue nearly floor length dress splits up well past mid thigh, and she is glad she is facing mostly away from the camera as her feet find the pedals in their glass heels.*
[11:25][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[ :)
[11:26][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*she adjusts a bit, taking a breath... the boy looks at her with a big smile and puts his violin to his chin, and with a look the first notes can be heard from the Steinway.
[11:26][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:Claire De Lune, Piano and Violin
[11:27][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[Domal and Lucina] -hold hands as the lovely lilt of the violin opening raptures both who now listen qquietly
[11:27][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*As she plays she both smiles to Tim, and tears up. She then closes her eyes with hitting the first low register note, and seems lost in the song.
[11:27][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[Liz]-sips her drink as she sits back and enjoys the performance
[11:28][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[Decia] -simply closes her eyes and enjoys the piece appreciating the joy and love each artist isputting into their performance
[11:29][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*The holographic does not perform any localizing tricks, the smiles, tears and some stunned faces can all be seen clearly.
[11:30][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[K'Rika] neverhavng heard this perforamnceismoved to tears by such beauty and lays her hornedhead on Marks shoulders as she gives heersel fover to the performance
[11:31][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*Letting the last note hang in the air, she lifts her hand to her mouth, and then wipes tears before looking up to Tim. She then springs up and gives him a hug that startles him.
[11:31][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:"I knew you had it in you.." *the holographic picks up, though it is not on direct microphone.
[11:31][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[Talia] -smiles though having heard this piece before..she enjoys the uniqueness of the performance tonight as it is shared bny these two artists
[11:32][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[Domal and wide wife- do niot wait for the crows they rise immediately at its end to applaud
[11:33][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*She takes him by the hand, with the bow, and calls Mischa over. The three of them bow, three times till they got the timing right, and laughing

[11:33][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[Liz] -rises and claps smirking some
[11:33][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*Anyone looking closely, would see that Dahlia has an edge to her that looks like she might rabbit at any second and is just barely holding back.
[11:34][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-restrains herself to not sendher frinending heading for that dern briar patch
[11:35][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:"Thank you all for coming, drink and hors des ouvres will be served .. feel free to wander a bit if you like.
[11:35][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[Decia] -stops Derek from yelling out encore remding him this is not a rock and roll concert
[11:36][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:** The holographic view moves closer to the three artists, they wave to everyone, and then it seems to withdraw down the stairs and back out the front door, replaying Claire de lune piano as the
[11:37][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:broadcast comes to a close, with the many thanks credits begining to play.
[11:37][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:[Liz] winks to eren- I thinkw e are beign kicked frrom the server -jokes

[11:38][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*On Earth, Dahlia hugs Mick, Mischa and Tim again, and then makes her way into the audience, and hugs a few more on her way to Illya and Valkriss, whom she makes especially strong hugs to
