If Christabel Dempsey had been alone - and indeed later when she got home from the party she would bury her face in her pillow and squeal her excitement into the duck down. The music swelled, and Chris felt her eyes flutter shut and as she gave herself over to the magic of the waltz, the evening, being the belle of this particular ball and the gent who was squiring her around the floor.
She wondered if tomorrow she would have a que of gents around the corner, with Mister Eldritch leading the charge - sure that unlike her darling sister she would be dutifully engaged to some dashing and handsome gentleman of society, who would make her a society lady to rival Mrs Prendergast. Mrs Christabel Morgan had just the right ring to it and as she moved around the room in his arms she was sure that this felt right.
This was her time to shine. This would be her season.

Shall we their fond pageant see?
Lord, what fools these mortals be!

I am my mother's savage daughter, The one who runs barefoot cursing sharp stones
I am my mother's savage daughter, I will not cut my hair, I will not lower my voice
MJ made glory
