Properly washed and dried, Leon stepped into the main body of the spacious guest dormitory. His clothes for the evening rested atop the bed awaiting him. While stepping into his slacks, he started to think about the night's occasion and his part in it. He felt a wave of nervous jitters as he drew ever closer to being ready to step out, knowing he would need to attend because King Stefan and Queen Leah made it a point to invite him, but fearing that the event would remind him of a lost past. Fully dressed, he rested a hand on his chest and took 3 slow breaths in an effort to reduce his jitters.
An energetic blend of sounds filled the high-ceiling grand ballroom that celebratory night. Many finely dressed attendees, spanning all walks of the citizenry, joyously conversed about the recently-won peace and safety for the kingdom. Talented musicians operated a variety of instruments to create a series of waltzes and foxtrots befitting the formal, elegant atmosphere, inviting the cacophony of dance steps that echoed to the music count. The people in attendance were the invited guests of King Stefan for a ball held in the honor of many heroes, and included fierce warriors from within his great kingdom and powerful allies from other worlds who, having seen Heartless invasions in other worlds, swore to remove them from all others. The many guests generally exuded joy and celebration, having missed the ability to safely revel in their entertainment, uninhibited by any looming threats. Cheerful women in shining satin gowns in a rainbow of fun colors eagerly showed off their beauty while igniting pleasant social banter, and confident men in tuxedos and tailcoats readily danced and conversed any time they were invited to do so.
Leon, now wearing the same formal uniform he generally wore to SeeD galas back in his training days, looked about the castle's prime function space. The black blazer was connected by a concealed zipper and a small belt-like fastener, and it was adorned with silver and black shoulder pads, while the entire uniform featured a gold-colored trim outline. He still had a stoic look about him, but there was a kindness in his blue eyes, showing that beyond his stern sense of protective duty rested a man who once reluctantly reveled in soirees such as this one. He looked about the room and saw several of his comrades having the times of their lives, including Aerith, Sora, Kairi, Yuffie, Alice, Belle, Cid, Cloud, Tifa, Aladdin, Jasmine, and several more. His mind drifted to an event from his past he knew he would never forget, but that also carried a bittersweet mix of joy and sadness for what it reminded him of. He looked out on the busy floor and, in his mind's eye, saw a translucent image of Rinoa in her white mini dress inviting him to the wild waltz that began the most romantic chapter in his life to date. He could see the 2 of them gliding across the floor, stepping perfectly in time and letting the sweet song guide a series of energetic, affectionate actions. After visibly zoning out for that minute, he blinked his eyes and once again saw the present time. Trying to focus on more pleasant thoughts, he looked to the dancers with pride, knowing that they were there because he and many others did their parts to make the magnificent kingdom safe again.
