The Wunsoc Ball Part One

Well, hello there! I haven't updated in a while... mainly because I've been low on ideas and therefore lacking motivation to write the few ideas that I have. So feel free to request anything, at this point I'll literally write anything (except smut, never smut). This chapter idea comes from a wunderful friend of mine, themxderntypewriter. She also proofread it. Thank you.

Just kidding

This does not contain adult themes

But does contain spoilers for Hollowpox

Wunsoc was having a school dance. Or a ball, as they liked to call it. They had one every second year, though the last dance had been cancelled due to the Hollowpox pandemic. So naturally, the halls of Wunsoc were buzzing with excitement as scholars discussed if the upcoming ball would be better than the last one, what they were going to wear and, of course, who they were going to take. Wunsoc had allowed each scholar to bring a guest, or a "date", if you will. There had been much discussion by the Elders and scholar Mistresses as to whether un-Wuns should be allowed as dates. They had finally decided with the answer being yes, they could.

The most exciting thing about the "school dance" is that it wasn't quite a "school dance". It was more of an "all Wundrous Society members ball", hence why the Elders were reluctant to let un-Wuns come as guests. Because of this, Jupiter had decided to ask Fen to be his date after one of his Unit members dared him. He did his little "promposal" in the Lobby at the Hotel Deucalion with Morrigan, Jack, Kedgeree, Chanda, Martha, Charlie and Frank, as well as a ton of guests present. Needless to say, it wasn't really little, but rather the complete opposite, fit with giant mouse balloons, pink glitter and a bouquet of feather dusters. It was all a joke, of course, and Fen originally had no intention of coming, but she, as a joke once again, huffed and said "yes".

The next day on Hometrain, Morrigan had told her friends in Unit 919 about Jupiter's date and asked about their dates. Hawthorne announced that he had asked Cadence, and Mahir had asked Anah. Both girls had obviously said yes.

"What about the rest of you?" Morrigan asked curiously.

"Uhm.. w-well," Arch stammered, "I'm trying to work up the courage to ask someone."

"Ooh~."

"I'm sure they'll say yes!"

"What about you two?" Arch said, directing the conversation to Thaddea and Francis.

Francis turned light pink, shrugged and looked down. Thaddea wasn't much better. Turning red, she mumbled, "I've been thinking about it."

"What about you, Mog? Got anyone in mind?" Hawthorne asked, waggling his eyebrows at his best friend.

"Firstly, don't call me that. Secondly... not yet."

"Oh... but Jupiter can call you "Mog", and so can Jack~," Hawthorne smirked.

Morrigan's face flushed ever-so-slightly as she shrugged, "yeah, so? Jupiter gave the nickname to me and Jack... is Jack."

Going over to the biscuit jar, Morrigan missed the looks that her Unit were giving each other.

Once Morrigan had offered biscuits to everyone and placed the biscuit jar back in its rightful place, Miss Cheery, who had been busy doing a crossword, spoke up and said:
