The Prince's Ball (OOC)

[Teressien]

Hello, everyone!
Today's Sunday, the 4th of August and you all know, what this means: IC's up!

A quick note for all the ladies still looking for a dress and not wanting to wear a traditional dress: Backless dresses are in this season in Teressien. ; )

[Folaisia]

Alright! I'm gonna be writing up!

[Teressien]

Alright! I'm gonna be writing up!

Wonderful! I look forward to it!

[Folaisia]

Teressien, may I bring a sgian-dubh (a Scottish knife worn alongside a traditional Scottish Highland dress) with Ruairi?

[Teressien]

Teressien, may I bring a sgian-dubh (a Scottish knife worn alongside a traditional Scottish Highland dress) with Ruairi?

Sure.

[Folaisia]

Teressien, may I bring a sgian-dubh (a Scottish knife worn alongside a traditional Scottish Highland dress) with Ruairi?

Sure.

Alright, thanks!

[Polish Prussian Commonwealth]

A tag, on the off chance that I can summon the willpower to commit to posting.

[Teressien]

A tag, on the off chance that I can summon the willpower to commit to posting.

Cool. I look forward to it!

[Teressien]

Snag a tag.

Cool... especially since Fara's there... ; )

Gladly Accepted, welcome aboard!
Thank you for your compliments. It was getting increasingly difficult to keep track of everything, so I one day decided to give it a go - granted, I was inspired by someone else, when I made the decision.
As for the coffee houses, that entirely depends on where you are and how thick your wallet is, but generally, they're quite nice. Good coffee, good cakes and pastries, you can even get lunch or dinner there (and in fact, many people do). And, of course, you have newspapers on a stick, the Zeitungsstock (<- Example. Not from Teressien, but quite close in appearance).

EDIT: And of course the Wikipedia-link doesn't work... let's take another one, then!

Also people, allow me to use this chance to say, that I love your posts, everyone. This one's really fun!
So, I planned for the Polonaise to start around the beginning or middle of page three. Any objections?

Some good music is perfect so no problems on my end.

Your translation is pretty good, although coffeehouse is more intended to be translated as Kaffeehaus, but that's more cosmetics then anything else. I take Erika is Berengar's date?

Everyone, post will come in the afternoon, so don't worry and stay tuned!

Negative. Berengar's there to make sure Erika doesn't say anything stupid or cause an international incident.

Sorta.
Being raised by a company of mostly-Finnish mercenaries that help out with guarding bases in the Iraq South Central Zone doesn't exactly breed high-society level manners, so expect Erika to be baffled if there's more than 4 utensils, or have difficulty deciding whether to salute, bow, or curtsy.

...although on the bright side, she may or may not understand some Arabic.

It's a ball, not a banquet, so don't worry about the utensils! Most food in the buffet is nibbles anyway.
That aside, I'm sure, that she'll be quite well - or that the results will be fun, whichever comes first! ; )

No, it's not too late, although I would like to ask you to keep Rule 4.6. in mind. In any case, I would be glad to welcome you!

Application pending, LP. I am currently missing an RP-sample.
As for a debutante, the term usually describes young women of high society, who has reached adulthood and is thus eligible for marriage and has a debut in order to present her to high society. In the application, I use it for both young men and women alike, mainly due to convinience.

Is it too late to apply?

No, it's not too late, although I would like to ask you to keep Rule 4.6. in mind. In any case, I would be glad to welcome you!
