Ithaeliel, now back in her seat, jumped up and began cheering shamelessly as Aylwen's name was called. "GO AYLWEN! YEAH! WOO-HOO!"
She continued to cheer until a very annoyed Brinniel pulled her down by the back of her dress. Ith was cut off in the middle of a very loud "AYLWEN ROCKS TH-"
"We're being dignified, remember?" Brinniel whispered through gritted teeth. Ith nodded enthusiastically and sat very straight, causing Brinniel to once again roll her eyes, moan, and sink her forehead into the palm of her hand. Ith laughed, embarrassed. "Sorry... you know how much I look up to Aylwen for that reason, though." That said, Ithaeliel smoothed her satin red gown, checked her hair to make sure it was still picturesque, and patiently awaited Aylwen's acceptance speech.
