⊗Never let it be said that Emma didn't know her stuff. Not content with the paltry and tired and cliche decorations Kurt and subjected the students to at previous events, she had completely taken over, using a combination of her wealth and mutant powers to create a sort of bohemian love palace for the students. Dance floor, tables, the finest foods. This was not a party the likes of which they had seen before... unless they were part of the older crowd, and had witnessed Emma at work before.
Was she good or was she good? On the stage, Emma stood proudly, taking each of the auctionable singles to the stage, one by one, and selling off just a fraction of their free time to the highest bidder. And the fact that it was all for charity left the whole situation comfortably guilt and obligation free.
Of course, as the host, she was more focused on the party and its guests as a whole than any particular individuals... Attempts at sneaking off probably would go unremarked upon. Probably.
[[ OOC: Each auction will receive its own top level, as well as a top level for general mingling. PLEASE CONSULT THE PLOTTING POST BEFORE BIDDING ]]

... But also how weirdly nice it felt to hear Gilbert call him that.-
I-... I dunno about 'lovely', mate, but... -Thanks? He had no idea what to say.-

[Though the quirk of his lips just then says he doesn't think so.
Oh, well. Bridget will have all the time he needs to sort out his feelings about that descriptor -- because the song's fading out and Gilbert wasn't kidding about only sticking around for the one. He takes his time about unwinding his arms from around his roommate's waist while the next number's beat cues up, but then he's drifting out to an arm's length.]
Until later? Thank you again for the dance.
[He reaches back to take Bridget's hand and give it a quick squeeze, and then he's disappearing off through the crowd, throwing only a brief, flirtatious look back behind him.]

Did that really happen?-
