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. ]

But mine isn't as stretchy and saggy as yours!

[Wonder where he got it from.

He looks down at his front feet and turns them over, revealing quite a few rose thorns stuck on the pads.]


This is why I should just stick to flying.
prominence_glow: (study ▼ There are lots of gay Asians.)

Oh no you di'nt!

Huh. Maybe I could get them out?

Here, shove this into your face, I'll be right back.

[Rustling about in the sack, he pulls out another roasted bird- chicken this time- and sets it down on the ground. Then he pulls out corn on the cob, sticking it into his own mouth as he starts to hop over to the foot in question.]
flared: (♣ well that's different)

/triple snap B| What'chu gonna do 'bout it.

[He stares at the chicken--oooo chicken--before he looks up at Lea...and sort of realizes how weird and terrible it would be to eat this thing when his Other is practically a chicken.

Axel just...leaves the food alone for now.]


I'll eat it later.
prominence_glow: (yo ▼ I got a lot accomplished today)

Gonna get someone to hold my earrings so I can whup yo ass!

[Lea glances back with a weirded out expression; someone clearly hasn't told him that eating other birds is weird, although he has admittedly been sticking to lots of corn tonight. Shrugging, he goes back to inspecting the thorns before finally grabbing one and giving a pull.]

[What do you mean 'be gentle'?]
flared: (♣ holy flaming pants of justice!)

Girl, I'mma take off mah SHOES for this.

[personal profile] flared 2012-02-15 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[Well, corn is good for you! Just chew it properly. /mommy Axel

Axel watches...and then WAILS.]


Ow! Easy, easy!
prominence_glow: (gtfo ▼ I now believe I can do shots of)

Bitch I'll smack yo teeth out with my purse!

[personal profile] prominence_glow 2012-02-15 11:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[Nearly choking in surprise, Lea flaps away in surprise. Fumbling with the corn in his mouth, he puffs up.]

I was helping!
flared: (♣ doitsumokoitsumo)

[He settles down and looks. Well, at least he loosened the thorn up.]

I know. [Pause] I'm sorry.
prominence_glow: (that guy ▼Since when do you have sex)

Eh, just keep down on the vocals and I'm sure we'll get on with it fine.

[Nibbling on his corn again, Lea sits down and tilts his head to the side thoughtfully.]

You know, I bet I could get the rest out.
flared: (♣ walk with me talk with me)

[He growls a little and then holds his foot out again.]

Just go slowly.
