Yule Ball Mini Auction

[Serenity Dion]

Serenity was a little disappointed that the Yule Ball Auction didn't going as she and all involved had hoped it would. Although she wasn't going to let that ruin her night, she had got dressed up just like everyone else and had a plan B up her sleeve. As the Yule Ball got underway she mingled with her friends and enjoyed the start of the night, everyone looked beautiful. She couldn't help notice that there was that noticeable divide of boys and girls without dates and it was probably the usual case of boys too nervous to ask and girls wishing a boy would ask. She had talked it over with the people involved and figured that even though the entire date auction fell through they could try out a mini Auction out on the night.

She made her way up to the stage when one song ended and took the microphone. "Hello everyone. My name's Serenity, I'm President of Heta Omega." she said confidently, continuing once she knew she had people's attention. "As some of you may or may not know Heta Omega and the Brotherhood had come up with the idea of doing a date auction for tonight but unfortunately it fell through." she explained, knowing not everyone was part of either club so they may not have known about it. "Well we decided that tonight we would have a mini auction for one dance, and anything after that is up to yourself. So anyone who signed up for the auction originally and still wants to do this come on up to the stage and let me know. Even if you didn't sign up and want to give this a go, then please let yourself be known."

She smiled as she set down the mic and let the music continue as she got the names of people that had come to sign up. After another few songs the mini auction was ready to go and she brought the first person up on stage. "Ok, first of all we have the lovely Prudence Armstead. Fourth Year Gryffindor and Social Chair of the Heta Omega. Prudence is a bundle of fun and loves dancing so who will be the lucky guy to dance with her tonight. We'll start at 5 Galleons!" she started the bidding right away, hoping to get through everyone who signed up as soon as possible so they could all have their dance.

Out of Character:

Ok so our original idea of a date auction fell through due to timing/number issues. So this is open to anyone who wants to give their character up, even if you aren't part of either club (although if your character isn’t part of Heta Omega or Brotherhood please do sign up ). Just PM me that you're interested and we’ll try to do as many as possible. Enjoy!

 

[Prudence Armstead]

Prudence may not have had the auction she expected, but after pushing the time back and opening it up a little she was more than excited to see it coming to fruition. The now blonde woman smoothed her dress down and came out onto the little platform when her name was called. She waved to the audience though admittedly she couldn't see anyone. The young Gryffindor was admittedly nervous that no one would bid on her. Though she was sure Venn would if he had the money. With that kept in mind Prue waited to hear the first bid.
