Now this was a party, Valerio thought to himself as he looked around the venue. In all of his years in Halloweentown, he had never attended a single one of the Monster Balls. He always felt they were too fancy for his tastes, but oh was he wrong. He scanned the crowd, looking for someone to talk to first - after all, wasn't this a chance to mingle and dance the night away? His gaze fell upon Alice. "You look stunning," he said, smiling at her sincerely. "That's not really a surprise, though, considering you always look nice." The phoenix reached around to scratch the back of his neck to distract himself from how awkward he was being. "Would you like to dance, ma'am? If not, I could use some company over at the drinks."
