For a few days, prior to the night of the halloween ball, Amelia had been feeling very much unlike her usual self. It had all been a mix of leftover feelings from her actions at the last party and the way she had been approaching the looming thought of war that had kept her from thinking of anything else and for a moment she had also completely forgotten the date was approaching. The idea of actually attending the ball almost sounded foreign to her when she remembered but after the talk she had with Augustus she just couldn’t help but say yes to them attending together as a distraction. Of course, going back to her usual self also meant really taking her time to get ready and eventually be fashionably late. Once ready she rushed over to the place where they agreed to meet but didn’t find him there,”oh fantastic!” she thought, quietly cursing herself before heading to the Great Hall in the hopes that he would be there.
