A/N: HELLO EVERYBODY!!! HAPPY CHRISTMAS AND MERRY HOLIDAYS! This is going to be my Christmas gift to you all, BUT there is 2 parts to this gift. The first part will be these headcanons, and the second part is going to be this mass choose-your-own adventure that will bleed into a new year’s gift. I hope you all enjoy these lovely headcanons, and I’m glad I got to enjoy this holiday with such a wonderful fandom. I’ll see y’all in 2020! (Hopefully the game has come out as well so that we can all enjoy it too lol)

ALRIGHTY
PARTY TIME BOiS 🥳
So, date: the annual Winter Ball of the Night Raven College happens every December 25th (yes it doubles as a Christmas celebration) of every school year
During the week of the ball, students get two weeks off (I’m sure all of you have had a winter break from school before. One week off for Christmas an other for bew years) from classes to pretty much to relax/get ready/chill/find a date before the actual day of the ball
The celebration itself is split into two parts: a formal actual ball during breakfast or lunch, and at night it’s the P A R T Y!!!
Each year, Crowley chooses which dorms host the party. This year being Heartslabyul and Pomefiore. Both dorm leader decided on a masquerade
Pomefiore decorated the hall elegantly, and Heartslabyul prepared the tables and food for the stidents liking
For example, Vil over saw that all the drapes, table cloth, positioning of the tables (literally everything) was the BEST of the BEST. Rook put everything into place, and Epel made sure presentation of silverware was prestige
On the otherhand the Cater and Trey were the head chefs helping the other students in the kitchen, Deuce made sure the flower arrangements matched the theme and decorum, Ace brewed the tea and enchanted the tea pots to scamper around the table and refill cups, and Riddle baked his famous tarts
The ball was held in the school’s largest ball room. Several round tables were set up around the perimeter leaving the dance floor wide open
At the front there was a long table for the staff and the dorm leaders to over look the entire scene
All the students arrive in their best ball wear and masks and begin the celebration! There’s food, drinks (Crowley actually allows everyone to have ONE glass of any type of alcohol they want), and of course the main event: dancing!
There’s actually no set seating so dorms can mix together, friends can sit woth friends, it’s really nice
The feast first starts with a toast from the staff and the dorm leaders, and after everyone can do their own thing
Some of the schools friendlier ghosts from the catacombs play in an orchestra for the students to dance and listen to
Some students are reluctant to dance *cough cough* Malleus, Leona, IDIA *cough cough* but they get dragged out onto the dance floor anyway
Many couples (YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE ;) ) dance the time away while others trade dance partners every now and then
The masks definitely add a feel of mysteriousness to everyone. Even when some people are easily more recognizable than others
There is one final dance that everyone must partake in. Tables and chairs are pushed to the side to make more room. Afterwards, the students are let go to get ready for the night parties
What students didn’t know is that while they have a celebration, their own dorm campuses are being prepped for the night parties
That being said NIGHT PARTIES
Each dorm has their own ways to celebrate:
Heartslabyul has an extravagant tea party
Octavinelle has a very 1920’s theme and it’s held at the Mostro Lounge
Scarabia has bonfires, dancing, and a color festival
Pomefiore has a more elegant party. Not like the ball, but something a bit more formal
Ignihyde pretty much has something equivalent to a rave. Idia and Ortho actually take turns to DJ
Savanaclaw opens the secret club (rightfully named the “Elephant’s Graveyard) they have for everyone. I guess you could say they’re party is WILD... I’ll see myself out
Diasomnia actually holds their party in the magical forest that surrounds their dorm. A lot of the time, the magical creatures like to join in the celebration
The best part: it’s open to EVERYONE
Meaning students from other dorms can go spend time where they want, or they can party hop
Since everyone is so busy having fun, a lot of dorms push their present opening either the day before, or the next day
All-in-all, the celebration is one of the biggest highlights of the school year and there is not a single person that misses it
Enjoy your time at the ball, and party on my friends 😉
