Faerietale Endings Fall Ball 2022 Locked

Interacting: Stephen Shwartz @AngelFyre McCubbin Felix @Winnie Harper Amina @Ileene Knight

Kamila smiled as Stephen gave her the rose and the shark necklace. She then put the necklace around her neck. ”Thank you, Stephen.” Kamila said, ”This was so sweet of you.”

Then another student came. According to this other student Stephen had asked Kamila, that Felix person, and that person. Why did every ball she went to have to be filled with drama?

Kamila was quite annoyed at everyone. It was tiring not knowing who to believe. Kamila wanted to believe Stephen, but the other’s stories had a lot less holes in them. Until…


”What does she have that I don't have?” Kamila mimicked, ”Where do I start? I have a personality and don’t follow people around and help them do their dirty work. I’m way prettier than you are. You look like a cockroach! With a grade average of O I’m clearly smarter. I’m a duelist and I have never lost before.” That last part was a little bit of a stretch considering Kamila had only participated in one duel,
“Do you need more examples?”

”I may have doubts about Stephen’s loyalty, but I know he would pick someone better than you.” Kamila paused to breath, ”Now why don’t you go ask Felix out? He is the only one here who would be stupid enough to love you!”

”Now,” Kamila pointed at Felix and Amina as she raised her wand, ”Both of you go, before I make you.” Kamila would wait until they left to bring her wand down (she was always happy to practice).

"What a dickish thing to do, Jannette, I'm sorry. Here."

"Y-yeah *sniffle* i's super dickish..." She whimpers, as she takes the crumpled tissue, lifts her glasses with her free hand, and presses gently on the edges of her eyelids. While her tears have slightly subsided, and are just stains on her face, the Niffler blows her nose loudly, before closing the napkin. "Aye, t'ank yah Rebecca..." She looked much better, no she felt much better. It was reassuring to know that Jannette had a friend that cared about her, even with the rocky start the two had, it would be something Jannette wouldn't forget.

"He sounds like a git, and your dress is fantastic! Forget him, mate."

Jannette would give the boy puppy dog eyes, her heart expanding ten folds. This was the first time in her month here at Hogwarts, that someone gave the brunette a genuine compliment, it even made her cheeks turn crimson. "T'anks i' took my mum forever t'ge'. Also look i' even 'as pockets!"¹ The brunette would put her napkin hand in her dress pocket, her face sparkling at the advancement! Pockets, in dresses? Was it even possible? "Oh, oh oi can also do t'is to!"² Jannette then gives a light twirl showing off her amazing dress. Besides the stain on her arm, she did have to agree with Rebecca, her dress looked amazing! Ending off her twirl, Jannette finished off with a misstep, before moving her hands in the air to regain balance, the tiara on her head now slanted. Jannette laughs at the whole situation, who knew Rebecca could turn the crying mess into a jolly girl? Damn, he's good!

"C'mon, everyone misses you, and there's all sorts of tasty apple-themed things that literally have your name on them, It won't be a waste of time if you get back in there and stick it to Quercy by having fun. Or you can mope in your room..."

Loops gave her an ultimatum. A choice, to cry alone in her room, or to prove that Quercy won't get to her head, and to show once and for that, she doesn't need any man to have fun! Damn, Rebecca is good. "You're righ', oi'm Jannette Applebottom afdah all."³ Without hesitation, she would take his hand, looking at him, "T'anks again fer -- y'know... 'elpin' me out. I really, really apprehcia'e it."⁴ a smile now appears from ear to ear, causing her dimples to show. She waits for Rebecca to see where they were gonna go next.

By the time Felix had traipsed off, Amina had cracked at least three ribs trying not to burst into roaring laughter. Filber. This guy cracked her up. But it got even better. This was so entertaining that she didn't even care that Felix had just taken off. His loss, he missed all the fun. And Amina had no clue what yet was about to come.

The quiet date of the Stewie didn’t seem to have fun so far. Maybe she had decided that Stewie was too much in the eye of the storm. Doubtful that she actually believed the scheme Felix and her had pulled off although… the american boy played along a little bit.
And even after that he was still a gentleman, introducing his date even. Wow. Due to their play, Amina ignored the introduction though. Instead she stared at him with incredulous indignation
"Girl whose name I do not, nor ever did, know" A moment of silence. "Ouch. How dare you deny our true love? Pretending not to even remember me! Breaking our childhood promise is one thing, but to pretend you don’t even know me, that is just… cruel!” She dramatically raised her voice.Sadly, not even in plays like that, she was one for tears. Too bad. That would have been the perfect moment. Stubbornly sticking to the name Felix gave him although he had just introduced himself, she carried on. "Stewie! We have known each other since we were children!” Lie. “Of course my accent is flawless! We went to the same school together - for one year before I switched!” That was actually true. Although he had been a first year when she had left after the third grade. So maybe he didn’t remember. "It’s okay if you moved on, but don’t just… erase all of our history!” Now, however, there was an unmistakable twinkle of amusement in her light green eyes.

This amusement would turn into a genuine smile when the silent date decided to talk or more so yell at Amina. It grew wider and wider with every word the redhead said. Oh, Felix would bite his own butt if he knew what he was missing here. When Kamilla was finished, Amina blinked and tilted her head. "W o w.” A glance was shot at Stewie, clearly saying: And you are dating that? Well, good luck with that.
Frankly, the Bulgarian had not expected to be attacked by the girl - more so by the boy she was actually teasing. But no complaining, she would take what she could get!
Completely unimpressed by the wand and the threat, she turned to the girl with a pitying expression. “Wow. That was… ” She shook her head in amazement. “Weak. Really weak. I give you probably a three out of ten for that - Stewie, you can do better than this, come on.”
The wide grin was sincere and Amina bit her lower lip with pretended embarrassment. “Oops. Triggered some insecurities there, didn’t I? Girl, you watched too many teenage girl movies with mean girls. Because you totally sound like one. The world is out there! Turn off the TV and go into… nature, have fun, meet real people. And try to be like one. Jeez”

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Wand in the hidden inside pocket of his jacket, Milo wandered into the scene, this weather wasn't quite what he was a fan of but it wasn't too bad with his mildly padded suit jacket.

Looking around, this seriously was a fairytale ball, pieces from all of his childhood stories that his maman used to read to him and Clara. A small Milo sitting on the floor looking up to his maman as she read Le Vilain Caneton The ugly duckling to them. It took him back to much simpler times.

He was able to see over the heads of a majority of people at this event, although not all, but through the gaps he could see what he was looking for, food. Snapping his fingers into fingerguns towards the table he headed towards it. He had been stressed recently about the hexwizard tournament, he just needed to spend the night eating and ignoring everything in his life.

A silver goblet full of what looked suspiciously like red wine but the logic in his mind said they wouldn't give alcohol to a bunch of...basically children, sat on the table, he took it in one hand, in the other he picked up a small pie and took a bite, trying not to get any of the filling on his suit, this was one of his better suits. He had too many suits.

With that, a splash of colour caught the corner of his eye. Turning, he immediately recognised the source. In a ball full of grimm fairy tales, trust Serena to be standing there looking like a peach princess. Not to be confused with a Princess Peach. Taking a sip of his drink he stepped up behind her. "Good to see you." He said, trying not to give her a fright.

08/10/2022 Evening song

Violet in English, Red in Korean and Blue in French

Ye-jun had a date. It still felt a bit surreal since it happened so unexpectedly but he was glad it did. The boy would be fine going alone but he doubted he’d have much fun that way. Also, if something bad happened, it was usually better to tackle it with someone by your side and Hogwarts balls were notorious for something bad always happening. Ye-jun would know. He was there.

Dressed in a generic royal looking suit, the Beauxbatons student finally entered the courtyard and found himself the least crowded place by the entrance. This is where he agreed to meet Jack. The event was well underway at this point so there was slightly less students flooding in. Ye-jun didn’t mind. In fact, he suggested going later to avoid the biggest waves of people. The only thing he worried about was some catastrophe already taking place by the time they joined in but so far, it didn’t look too bad. Clearly there were some troubling situations here and there but the courtyard was not in flames just yet. Good, the wizard nodded to himself. Now he just had to wait for his date to show up. He would show up, wouldn’t he? For all his confidence, there were still times when Ye-jun second guessed himself. Such thing was not unexpected however, he was just a human after all.

Taking a proper look around, the Beauxbatons wondered what the fate had in store for them tonight. He remembered Jack promising he’d make sure they had fun this time round. Usually, Ye-jun wouldn’t consider it such a big deal but here, that might prove to be a challenge. The theme was well thought and the decorations were amazing as always but you just couldn’t let your guard down here. For most part, balls were meant to be fun but this school seemed hell bent on making said task much more difficult than it ought to be. Well, hope dies last I suppose. There was no reason to throw in the towel just yet.

KABOOM!

That was the sound of all hell breaking loose in his head. Standing there with his hand held out to the redhead, trying to make light of a moment that could have been fondly remembered for some time thereafter, she instead completely ignored it and decided to continue her juvenile troublemaking. Way to read the room. His patience for such nonsense had come to an end. Stephen retracted his hand with a wan smile to the girl and was about to turn and retract himself and his date from the situation, after wishing the redhead a pleasant evening, when it was made painfully obvious that Kamila had fallen prey to the redhead's childish baiting.

And boy how she fell for it!

He was stunned to hear the things coming from her mouth that he did, and it was no longer anything he could simply pass off as a lack of understanding on her part to nuance in a language not native to her. This was honestly how she thought about people? Calling someone a cockroach based on her opinion of their looks was okay in her mind? And this loud, vulgar display was how she felt comfortable presenting herself to the world? Stephen was out. The thought that initially hit him on the deck of the Truth or Dare boat washed over him again - such loveliness on the outside so greatly diminished by the ugliness on the inside. He had hoped that had been only a thin, candy coating, but it was clearly baked into her character.

All he'd wanted was a peaceful evening in which to get to know Kamila. It appeared the fates, of which he held absolutely zero belief in, had other plans, at least when it came to his desire for a peaceful evening. He'd been granted a ramped up chance to get to know Kamila a bit better, so he grudgingly guessed he had "Filbert" and "Girl whose name he still did not know" to thank for that at least. So be it. Who knew that a little pee in the Cheerios could be more beneficial than milk? Well, Stephen did, for now at least.

New plan. Just get through the evening. Have pleasant conversation with Kamila, if that was even possible, maybe dance a while and then visit the petting zoo if she was up for it. While he no longer could think of her as a possible girlfriend, it didn't mean that they couldn't enjoy their evening together. That was his re-imagined pipe dream right up to the second she pulled her wand out and threatened the redhead.

Sigh.

He quickly scanned the Courtyard for a friendly redheaded Robin Hood. Jamie and EmmaLee had played it smart. Being a "single pringle" was probably the way to go when it came to these functions. He'd take that note under advisement for future Balls, but he just had to get through this one first.

Interacting with Pizza Rat & Milo Durand (@Delilah Stewart) | Mentions: @Hugh Lowe

Swivelling around in surprise, Serena's eyes fell on the Beauxbatons boy and immediately recognised as the same guy that she had felt too awkward to be around in the past. Things had seemed to improve though. She moved so fast that the little armoured rat on her shoulder almost went flying, "Oh- oh!" The first was as recognition of his face crossed her mind and she realised who he was. The second was when she realised that Pizza almost fell off. Quickly, she shoved the apple into her mouth, holding it in place with her teeth before nudging the rat with her finger a little to make sure he stayed on, gently nudging him to her neck so he was more secure.

Taking the apple out of her mouth after taking a bite, "Sorry about uh all of that," She said to both her rat and Milo. Turning her attention to the boy, "Hey there," Her face bore a smile on it before looking down at her full hands, half-wondering if she went for the hug or just gave up... Deciding to go for the hug, she tried to tiptoe and carefully throw her arms around his neck whilst not spilling anything on him.

Pulling away - if he let her hug him - she'd continued, "I didn't realise you were there. It's good to see your face," She replied before hearing herself and realising just how odd it sounded. It might come across as weird. She was not trying to say he was cute or something. Not that he wasn't. Ugh, talking to people was hard... With a few drastic hand gestures that threatened to spill the drink, "I mean like, it's good to see a friendly face here. Yanno?" Backtracking as quickly as possible.

Speaking of friendly faces, where was the guy she was here looking for? He was literally like eight feet tall, how does one 'lose' him?! Serena scanned the courtyard once more, trying to spot any students towering massively over the others. She even tiptoed a little, straining her neck up to try and see over the nearby students that were blocking her own view! Ugh, where was he? What sort of terrible date was he, making her wait like this! A frown crossed her eyebrows for a moment as she bit grumpily into the apple. Where was he?! Did he forget?! Was he really going to make her go to this thing alone?!

Turning her attention back to him, "So, how are you doing? How's Beauxbatons treating you? How's Quidditch?" She bombarded the poor guy with questions, since she had not seen him in a little while.
