Delphine~

“I mean, I can go, or I can stay and hang out with you for a while. I'd feel bad just ditching you though. D'you think you'll be able to walk again soon?” Jarnen asked me.

“I—err—I guess I might be able to walk soon...” I thought for a minute, “I'll just be fine here alone.. You can go if you want, and I encourage it!” I smiled to Jarnen, wincing a little. “Or... you can stay here. No—”

I looked over to the ballroom, watching everyone socializing and dancing, “I... erm... It's fine...! Please, do go. I wouldn't ever want to ruin your experience.” I got up from the bench and winced, falling back onto the bench. I forced another smile onto my face, “I'll be fine here! Wait! Can you maybe help me get to the ballroom?”

~~~~

Delphin-

“Hello... I'm Arabella....” the girl said, looking down.

“It's a pleasure to meet you, Arabella. What're you doing here, just asking? I thought you would be out there socializing?” I eyed the ballroom, watching some people talk and dance. I then eyed another room with food in it and saw some people over at the chocolate fountain. I eyed them, trying to get a closer look.

Arabella sat back onto the chair and watched me with curiosity. I shuffled over to the side, getting a better view of the two figures. Arabella popped up, walking over to me, “Oh... Those two AEs are Magdalene and Alec...”

I turned and smiled to her, “Want to go socialize with them?”

Download~~

"Download!" She calls. "Oh my goodness. You...you look beautiful. " I'm overwhelmed with joy that I've found Song. She waited for me, and that warms my heart.

"Not as beautiful as you," I reply. And it's true--everything about her, her beauty , her kindness, her softness--it is the most wonderful thing in the world. 

She blushes, and I take her hand. I want to spend the night dancing with her, before I have to leave. 

"Sybill has been thinking of changing my name," I say as we dance. "She was thinking maybe Crimson, Vinyl, or Petrichor. Possibly even Cobra. I personally like Vinyl, but I wanted to know what you think."

Song~

"Not as beautiful as you," she says. I want to thank her, but I'm so stunned and flattered I can barely get the words out. She takes my hand, and we begin to dance.

Usually, this would make me super nervous. But with Download, it feels so natural, and so right. Here we are, her with little lightning bolts dotting her skin like stars and me with no shoes and both of us decked with flowers, dancing together. There could be nothing more beautiful.

"Sybill has been thinking of changing my name," she says. "She was thinking maybe Crimson, Vinyl, or Petrichor. Possibly even Cobra. I personally like Vinyl, but I wanted to see what you think."

"Hmm..." What do I think? I think she is amazing, I know that. I think she deserves what she likes best, not what I do. I want her to have everything she likes best, really. She would desrve it.

"Well, Petrichor is a pretty cool word, I think... but it also sounds kind of mysterious, and powerful. Just the sound of it, you know? Petrichor.

"I like Vinyl too. Petrichor doesn't sound much like something I would... connotate with you, I guess? I mean." I bite my lip. "But, Vinyl just seems so perfect for you. The sound, the feel. You know?"

~Sally~

Just as I was looking around the crowd of AEs and noticing how awesome they all looked, then an AE approached me. I was surprised, yet excited, considering the fact that usually I was the one that usually approached everyone, not the other way around. Maybe he would want to be friends! Wouldn't that be cool? Me and whoever-this-person-was, against the world! Well, not really against it, more like in the world. But still. He said, "Hi! I'm Alex, one of Nyx's AEs! You're Sally, right?" 
I flipped out. So he does want to be friends! "Yeah, I'm Sally! I'm one of Dusk Sky's AEs, along with my sister. Isn't the ball amazing? Do you like rainbows and kittens? What's your CBer- oh wait, you already told me. Are you one of the energetic ones too, or one of the angsty shy people? But it doesn't matter, because we will be absolutely great friends!"

~~~~~~~~~~~

Welcome to how Sally introduces herself to everyone! By bombarding people with questions.

"Uh, sur3," 1 4nsw3r. "W3 sh0uld h34d b4ck t0 th3 b4llr00m th3n, uh... d0n't y0u th1nk?"
"Oh... yeah, sure."

Alex~

"Yeah, I'm Sally! I'm one of Dusk Sky's AEs, along with my sister. Isn't the ball amazing? Do you like rainbows and kittens? What's your CBer- oh wait, you already told me. Are you one of the energetic ones too, or one of the angsty shy people? But it doesn't matter, because we will be absolutely great friends!"
I grin. I was already excited, and finding out that I was right for once about who an AE is lights me up even more.
"Yeah, the ball is great!" I answer. "Isn't the food sooo good? Kittens are awesome, Vivian wants to get one but Niko won't hear it. I'm so one of the energetic ones! Niko's the angsty one, his only friend is Nihil, Porcelain Dragon's AE. Angsty sides with angsty, I guess. I think they're up there!" I point to the ledge where my brother and Nihil are sitting. "Isn't it weird that Niko's always dressed in almost all black? But I guess Apollo actually dressing in all black is even weirder. Hey, who is your sister? I can't remember. I actually don't remember anyone's names very easily."

Harper~

There's nothing much to do on the ledge we were perched on. Most people had someone to dance with. It dissapointed me a littlt bit, I really wanted to, umm, date......I looked around. I asked Phox if we should, like, meet people. She said okay, and brought us down. I looked at everyone and shuffled around, not a clue of what to do next.

Adelaide~

"Hi. U-um, want to dance?" Stargirl asks. She is looking mostly towards Apollo, but I can tell she isn't just talking to him...I hope.

"Uh, sur3. W3 sh0uld g0 h34d b4ck t0 th3 b4llr00m th3n, uh....d0n't y0u th1nk?" The boy, Apollo, replies.

"Oh......yeah, sure," Stargirl answers.

I start to slip back into the lounge, sensing how akward my presence is. I step towards the room as Stargirl gets up.

"Wait.....please come with....i-if that's okay wirth you, of course......" Stargirl says to my surprise.

"Oh.....ok, sure," I answer and step out towards them. We start heading towards the ballroom.

Phox~

we sit until Harper wants to go mingle. I fly her down as soon as she does. She looks around, I do the same. Everyone looks like they are having a fine time with the people they are hanging out with. Me and Harper are both social, but neither of us know who to walk up and talk to. So we just stand, planning our next moves.

Apollo says something like "Y3s, but sh01dn't w3 g0 t0 th3 b411r00m?" II say, "Okay, sure..."  No one's ever said hi or anything to me... I can't wait to see what the night brings. I ask Adelaide. "Do you want to come? I-I mean, you don't have to..."

Ugh, Night Vision, Reese, and Sage have already formed a little group, talking amongst themselves. I thought making friends was going to be easy, but it seems like it won't. Dejectedly, I take my cup of chocolate and head back into the ballroom. Maybe-*gasp*  MAYBE! I just need to cast a wider net!! I scream into the air, "HELLLOOOO!!! I! AM! PENNYPACKER! AND WHO IS READY TO DAAANNNNNCCCCE???????" I skip into the middle of the dance floor and wait for people to start walking townards me.

Hi! I know I'm not totally supposed to be here(sh) but I'd like you to meet my new AE who would like to join the ball!

Name: Cementha, but everyone calls her Cem.

Gender:Is questioning it, but is pretty sure she is a girl.

Age: 14-ish

Personality:Kinda proper, until she gets around her friends. Then, she lets loose and likes to laugh. Fiercely protective of the people she cares about. She isn't afraid to get in a fight.

Don't forget!

Oh, and she would love love LOVE to be in a romantic relationship, though she isn't pushy about it like Penny.

Appearence: Waist-length mousy-brown/light orange hair. Light brown eyes. Average height for her age. To the ball: A 'light pink '50's inspired poodle dress with red high tops. She'll also be wearing a mold-colored satchel that clashes with her outfit.

Who you are coming with/partner:(if applicable) (whatever that means) Um, Stargirl and Penny Packer are already there, so...

Other: Nah.

Amyway, whatsup?

This is so exciting. Twisting my bag in my hand, I climb up the stairs and enter the door. I walk straight through the coatroom, since, well, I didn't bring a coat. I walk in JUST as Penny Packer screams "HELLLOOOO!!! I! AM! PENNY PACKER! AND WHO IS READY TO DAAANNCCCCEE? Oh  my gosh! What is doing?! What was she thinking? It's obvious how obnoxious the greeting is. Everyone is staring and rubbing their ears. My face reddens in mostly anger but a little bit of embarrasment. I clench my fists and start to walk over, pull her aside, and scld her. But, taking a breath, I think back and remember Puck throwing confetti nd yelling hello. Maybe it didn't come off as annoying, just cute. She is only 10, after all. I decide to fade into the shadows and see what happens. 

(Admin., the text above is bigger than usual. Can you try and fix it? Thanks!

Harper~

I heard a girl yell-everyone did-"HELLOOOO! I AM PENNY PACKER! AND WHO IS READY TO DANCE!!" I look at Phox and smile a bit. She nods and makes a little shooing gesture towards the middle of the room where Penny stopped. I waltzed up to her, glanced back at Phox, who looked lonely. Then she turns and dissappears into the crowd. I look back towards Penny. People are looking at her funny, but I smile at her. I  walk up near her.

"Hi! I'm Harper! I'll dance with you, if you'd like!" I say, and wait for her response.

I have to go, I'll post more later!!

Ah, someone walks over! She smiles and offers to dance. I recognize her as Harper. I smile and say quietly-since everyone is staring at me-"Thank you." Regaining my confidence, I bust into a move- THE W              V                                                                                                                                            A          E.

@Leafy, Phox goes to find Hazel, btw. 

Adelaide~

Me, Stargirl, and Apollo. We stepped into the ballroom as Stargirl's sister, Penny, yell, "Hello! I! AM! PENNY PACKER!! AND WHO IS READY TO DANCE?!!!!" I couldn't tell what Star thought of it. Everyone was staring at her like she was crazy, but then I saw Harper walk up and the two of then start dancing. They look adorable, and others start dancing in their groups again. We dance together on the outskirts of the crowd, Stargirl, Apollo, and I. I smile.

Phox~

Harper walks to Penny Packer and they start dancing together. Then Adelaide shows up with Penny's sister, Stargirl, and a boy named Apollo. I smile, happy for them, but I feel a little pang of jealousy. I walk into the crowd and I see some stairs leading up to a balcony. There's a girl up at the top and I recognize het as Hazel, a captcha. I start to climb up the stairs.  

 

Phox says nnixw. Nyx? NYX?? Or twix, or something. You're confusing.

@Spellbound Phox said my name?? That's so weird and cool! Anyways.... EnTeR CAPTCHA!

Nikai~

Nyx and I finally reach the end of the long walk to the mansion, and my CBer leaves me to fly in by myself. I'm definitely not nervous or anything, but I'm a little worried that if I walk, someone will fail to see me and I'll be smushed. 
I reach the doors and perch above them, scanning the ballroom. I see Niko sitting on a ledge with Nihil, Alex talking to and AE I don't know, and Vivian standing with Lux kind of half dancing, even though it's not a slow dance (I think.). Then I see Apollo, dancing with two other AE girls. I fly over and perch on his shoulder, startling him. <Apolo!> I cry. <what> <aree> <youu> <doing?>
Apollos face turns red. "1'm d4nc1ng, N1k41." It takes me a moment to process what he said, since Apollo is sometimes really hard to understand, but I figure it out pretty quickly.
<oohh!> <youre> <realy> <good!> I say. Apollo smiles, in a funny way. (He's actually super embaressed but like I said before, Nikai isn't very smart and wouldn't notice.) I look over at a stairway, losing my train of thought. <iiss> <that> <aCAP><TCHA?> I ask. (She saw Phox walking ip the stairs.)
Apollo follows my gaze. "Uh, y34h, 1 th1nk s0."|
<okay> <Iwill> <seyou> <later!> I flap my wings and fly over. <hhii!> I say, surprising her and starting to fly circles around her head. <II'mm> <Nikai!> <whats> <your> <name?>
