bluh bluh huge ball
Characters: Vatheon
Location: That Castle
Time: Evening, on Sunday
Style: Any
Status: OPEN. Threadjack, threadhop, spam away!
[ Good evening, Ladies and Gentlemen of Vatheon— whatever your newfound stature may be, Prince, Princess, Knight, or Peasant, you will all receive a message on your SFC on the eve of Saturday regardless:
You are cordially invited to the castle for this evening's ball. In addition, you are all welcome to try and solve the riddle if it fancies you. It just may break the curse!
The invitation is unsigned, but its intentions are clear. Maybe you hadn't quite noticed the sizeable castle in the distance of the city that had sprung up, but this message would surely garner your attention toward it now.
Should you arrive at the castle, plenty of attractions await you:
Ballroom ❧ A very large and beautiful ballroom is lighted up, complete with a playing violin orchestra. While the curtains will be drawn during this event, there is a windowed view and exit on one side of the ballroom that leads to:
Smee's Rose Garden ❧ A broad and colorful spanse of a garden, complete with many paths and turns. Plenty of roses are arranged in great arches, which provide perfect little places should you need some privacy with your sweetheart. Anyone familiar will even tell you that the garden was purposefully designed for just that sort of thing.
The Riddle ❧ There is an inscription located on a noticeable plaque set in one of the garden's benches. It reads:
Dining Hall ❧ Connected to the ballroom is an extremely long hall that stretches as far as the eye can see, elegantly arranged as the dining area. Expensive and exquisite cuisine seem to be on the menu— try something new? Chances are you won't be eating from a selection such as this again anytime soon!
Dais ❧ There is a noticeable raised dais that is easily visible via any area within the ballroom. It's locked off from guests, though— what is it for...?
Do enjoy. ]

Two are necessary to break this curse
Riled up, upset, what kind of love?
Only this kiss will stop it from getting worse.
Look for a winged one is push comes to shove,
Look for a glance slightly dark,
Search for a pair in reluctant love.
One answers a call; that's your mark;
One longs for patria though adverse.

Feferi?
[Well that answers that. Was she always a dragon? Fuck, this is confusing.]
Well whatever. Human--maybe I can manage that, I don't know. I could make you a dress the size of a house, I'm sure, but something like that's going to take a lot of concentration and magical effort. Do you really want to see the inside that much?

[Grumble grumble. He taps his wand against his palm, scattering some more sparkles as he considers.]
So, smaller, first off. And then... the scales and... Hmmmmm. And the dress--colors, design...
Close your eyes, or you're going to get blinded with sparkly magical bullshit while I cast this.
no subject
[ She does as she's told, excitedly shifting her weight from side to side, and if she wasn't putting in a concentrated effort, she would probably be turning circles. ]
no subject
[But if she complies, he sets to work. Flying along beside her, he sweeps his wand in grand gestures, scattering out the glittering magic over her form. It takes a double trip around her, one side then the other, then again, before he's satisfied that there's enough there to do the job. Then, before her, he taps the end of his wound to the very tip of her draconic snout.]
[Then it starts to work. The sparkling energy does well to veil her as he form shifts and reshapes, shrinking down, losing scales, humanizing bit by bit - save the horns, because even a human deserves horns by his book. Plus she said 'mostly human' was fine. And lastly, the glow coalesces and fades into the form of a dress.]
There. Satisfied?
no subject
lovea chance to be human, of course she'll listen and try to stand still! Thought she's nearly vibrating with excitement.Turning into a human is definitely an interesting experience, even when you can't actually see it, and once it's done, she cracks open one eye, then the other. Gasping, she inspects herself with the biggest grin ever seen on human or dragon. When she looks back to Karkat, she's wiggling in the strangest manner-- like she's trying to wag a nonexistent tail. ]
Karkat! It's perfect! You're the best!
no subject
I am a hatched leader in everything I do. No way in hell am I about to let magical ball-going dressomancy to be the area I fail in. And you've even got horns still, like any decent person should.
no subject
Or at least, she's trying. She's not very stable on those feet yet. ]
no subject
Eesh, don't just come smacking into me like that. I get it, you're glad, great, good for you. But I am not a huggy godmother; I am distant and aloof. Now come on, give me space.
no subject
[ Still, she relents, taking a few steps back. ]
I mean it though... thanks.
no subject
[He pauses, looking at her.]
Dragon girls? Whatever.
But yeah, you're welcome, whatever. Just fair warning: it will only last until midnight, so haul your ass out of the castle before then or you will bust some walls, I'm sure.
no subject
[ Hopefully Karkat is smart enough to look away, because it's really embarrassing watching her try to move in that dress. ]
no subject
Yeah. Have fun. Don't get drunk, it makes you stupid.
[But otherwise, he lets her go. He'll stay here, himself, on the off chance someone else needs his magical aid.]
