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:

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.


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. ]

[And Dualscar is just mortified. He doesn't know who this creature is, but he's clearly one of the 'sons' Darkleer mentioned, and he apparently has an issue with what Darkleer was just doing.

If he'd had his druthers, he'd have left in some suitably dramatic manner. But instead, he's stuck here, with a fish tail for legs and tingling lips and a head full of 'what the fuck was that?'

So he settles for pretending it was nbd.]
I don't knoww wwhat you're bein' so fuckin' dramatic about, boy.

[Dualscar, you lost the chance to go 'nbd' when you backhanded Darkleer across the face in surprise when someone stumbled onto this make out session. Kind of late, bro.]

[In the meantime, Darkleer is beginning to mimic Equius' body language, his ears flicking irritably before flattening completely. His legs are a lot more calm, but the same cannot be said for his tail, which is swishing to and fro. Another stomp of one of his hind legs.]


I believe it is nothing you should concern yourself with.

You... him... what?!

[At this point, Equius' words fail him completely, and he lets loose with a loud, angry whinny before kicking out with both back legs. All he hits is air, but the implication is clear.]

[It doesn't seem the least bit strange to him that he's wordlessly arguing with his dad in front of a merman.

And wwhat, precisely, is wwrong with me?

[He growls this, somewhat quietly, but penetrating.]
aim_exorable: (gun show ♐ So precise and so pristine)

[personal profile] aim_exorable 2012-02-13 06:04 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh, Equius, no you didn't.]

[Another aggravated snort, and Darkleer stomps his hoof against the ground twice more before moving forward. Yes, he'll take that challenge, thank you very much, trotting around the younger centaur with heavy steps.]

[Sory, Dualscar, horse arguments, you know how it is.]
stayb100ponyboy: (disgruntled)

[Equius snorts fiercely at Dualscar. Yeah, take that, now you know exactly where you stand!]

[He backs up a few steps when Darkleer starts advancing on him, but then begins prancing and surging up and down again. Most of his motion is coming from his front legs, but he's tossing his head and throwing his hair around energetically.

devwocean: (Oh please)

[Eyeroll. Now they're just being hoofbeasts at each other, and this is stupid. Dualscar settles down in his fountain to watch, letting them sort it out]

Sorry, this just needs all of Darkleer's kids in here

Are they all bein' fuckin' salty again?

[Hi Dualscar. Do you want some goat companionship? Sure you do. Because when Darkleer starts macking on the aquatic, all the family needs to be involved.

Gamzee doesn't particularly seem bothered by the weird display of horsing around, instead calmly perching on the fountain rim next to the merman.]


It's motherfuckin' adorable, yeah?
