Adelaide~ 

We were dancing when Nyx, Apollo's Cber's, captcha flies over. The tiny perches on Apollo's shoulder and asks what he's doing. Apollo answers shyly, his cheeks flushed red, "1'm d4nc1ng, N4k41." Then Nakai looks over at Phox, whom I consider my sister. Nakai asks <iisss> <thaat> <aCapt> <tchaa?> Apollo says he thinks so, and I nod my head. I smile as the dragon flaps over to Phox. "That's my sister," I whisper when Nikai is flying above phox's head. "0h." Apollo says, and we both blush as the 3 of us start dancing again. 

Phox~

When I was partway up the stairs, a small dragon captcha flew over my head. <Hhiii!> He startled me when he said it. <Iii'mm> <Nakai!> <What's> <yoour> <namme?> "Phoxx" I answer. "waant tocom ewith meeto theba lcony?" I ask. She nods her head and I start walking up the stairs again. Nakai flies above me. I open my wings and fly next to her. We fly up to the balcony and see another captcha, I recognize her as Hazel, Leafy's captcha. "ooh,hi" I say. She looks at us as I land. "H-hiii" she says. smile at her.

Finally decided to join this thing.

Name: Sunflower

CBer's name: possibly wiser

Æ or CAPTCHA?: AE!

Gender: Female

Age: 17

Appearance: I am Black. I have decided to go natural for the occasion so my hair is in a short (but stylish) afro. Minimal makeup, but I do have some eye shadow and lip-gloss. I can sometimes glow when excited. Wearing a gorgerous yellow dress that I comissioned Possibly to draw and that she's going to post hopefully sooner rather than later.

Personality: I'd like to believe that I am outspoken and outgoing but still considerate and kind to everyone around me.

Who you are coming with/partner (if applicable): Well, I'm dragging David to the ball, if that counts! Just as friends though. 

Other: No shipping as of now. I will ask, if interested. Also, I'll be scouting for David, since he's stubborn and won't admit that he has feelings.

Name: David

CBer's name: possibly wiser

Æ or CAPTCHA?: AE.

Gender: Male

Age: 17

Appearance: Ugh, do I really have to dress up for this? Fine. I'll be wearing a suit or something. It's not that exciting. Possibly will draw it. Oh yeah, I'm Asian. So. Whatever. I don't really know why that applies but Sunflower says that gives people a better idea of what I look like. Also, I can change into a red panda. And I might, if I get too fed up with human-ish beings.

Personality: I'm self decribed as cynical but Sunflower has been known to call me moody. In other words, I don't really want to talk to you and I'd rather not be here at all.

Who you are coming with/partner (if applicable): Sunflower is dragging me to the ball. NO, that does NOT mean we are together. I do NOT like her like that. Or even like her at all. EVER.

Other: Please no shipping. I am really not interested.

Does this mean we get to post now? Great!

~Sunflower 

Possibly Wiser, the sweet girl that she is, hired the pumpkin coach to take us to the ball. Unfortunately, they had a little bit of traffic getting out of the storybook. As a result, David and I arrived late. The coachman opens the carriage door and offers his hand to assist me. My yellow dress flows around my sandled feet as I step out. David ignores the offered hand and gets out on his own ungracefully. I sigh. "David, now you have to give me your arm."

"What?" David asks. "Why?"

"Because that's what a gentleman does when he escorts a lady to the ball!" He gives in after I step purposefully on his toes. As we walk to the entrance of the mansion, his suit shimmers in an otherworldly way, the embroidered red pandas seeming to move. "Possibly did a good job on your suit, don't you think?" I reflect. "You look nice."

"Whatever," David says, but I can see that he stands a little straighter, proud of the elegance. "I'm just glad I don't have to wear a dress."

I laugh, surprised. "Did you just make a joke?" I tease him. "Do you make jokes now?"

He huffs. "No." He glances at me and then mutters. "You don't look terrible either. But your glow is hurting my eyes."

I grin. David is really a softie inside, and he can recognize how much I am excited for tonight. Light glows around me. Neither of us have had the change to meet many AEs, so we're both a little nervous about first impressions. But as we walk through the doors, I just know that it's going to be great!

~David

When we get inside, Sunflower immediately spots the promised chocolate fountain. She literally lets out a light show and rushes over to it. A few people notice and are dazzled by the lights. She begins conversing with the others there, a smile on her face. I hesitate, unsure if I should follow. Eventually I wander over to the food table. A jar labled jalepiños attracts my attention. As I am opening it, an energetic AE in strange purple garb with pointy ears approaches me. "Are you going to eat those?" she asks sweetly.

I bristle, instantly on guard. "Yes. Why do you care?"

She doesn't seem fazed, smiling brightly. "Want to have a contest?"

I am about to growl at her to go away, but I remember Sunflower firmly instructing me to be nice and Possibly's hopeful face as she was stitching the red pandas onto my suit, even using a little bit of stardust to give them an extra shine. I sigh. "What kind of contest?"

"An eating contest, of course!" she exclaims. "Who can eat the most jalepiños without needing a drink of water!"

I finger the red panda on my sleeve. "Fine. But I'm warning you, I'm used to some pretty spicy stuff." 

Note: Joan, please let me know if this is ok for Puck!

Oops, sorry, I've kind of been procrastinating on posting on here :P

Jarnen--

Delphine struggles to get off the bench and falls back onto it again. "I'll be fine here! Wait! Can you maybe help me get to the ballroom?" 

"Yeah, of course," I reply. I help her to her feet. "Do you want to lean on me...or should I carry you...or something?" 

I feel really bad that the beginning of the ball is not going well for her. And I mean, I haven't gone into the ballroom yet either. But I don't mind. I am the Æ of the host, after all! Anyway, there'll be plenty of time later to have fun. And, Delphine is really pretty, although I think she wasn't open to relationships with boys. And I really shouldn't be acting like a playboy around every girl I meet. Look how that got me with Chilly and Gem. 

*Hazel*--

I reach the top of the balcony and I'm about to peek out the double doors that lead to the outside half of the balcony when I am interrupted by a couple of other CAPTCHAs. Since they both have wings, they fly up to the balcony. "Ooh,hi" says one of them."Hiii," I say. "Whoo aree youu?" 

"I'mmmm Phoxx," says the one who said hi to me. "I'mmmm Nikai," says the other. 

"I'mmm Hazel," I say. I brush some crumbs off of my poofy pink skirt. "Ummm, what aree youu doing uppp here?"

Stargirl-

This...is so awesome. 4p0110 and Adelaide and I are having so much fun. Dancing the night away, stomachs full, bodies warm, it's amazing. I'm so happy. I grow hungry. 

"I'm going to get some food. I'll be back soon," I promise.

I head over and grab a smiley-face cookie. I beam back at its frosting face. My feet shuffle to the end of the table, hands picking up something of everything along the way. Tofu, strawberries, jalepenos. Balancing the paper plate(s) on a corner of the table, I make 3 milkshakes with the, well, milkshake maker. I wait for the ice cream to melt into a liquid, and look around. 

Cem-

Haha! No one cares if Penny screams hello! Well, I did. I need to loosen up. I emerge out of the mass of angsty AE/CAPTCHA bodies. Immediatly, I see a black girl with the most beautiful yellow dress. She's literally GLOWING. Amazing. I walk over and say, "Hi! I'm Cementha. Everyone calls me Cem, though. Well, everyone I know. Your dress is amazing. How are you GLOWING?" I clap my hand over my mouth. Talking too much again. I don't even notice that I'm not breathing until she says-

~Sunflower

I laugh at Cem's exuberance, flattered. "Possibly, my CBer, says that I'm light contained in a human form. Sometimes a little light shines through, I guess. Oops!" A glow emerges from my fingertips and I laugh again, a little nervoulsy this time. "I'm Sunflower, by the way. It's a bit on the nose, isn't it? What does Cementha mean?" The girl says something through her hand that I can't hear, then realizes that her answer was muffled and drops the hand, taking a deep breath and responding:

btw, Sunflower's dress is on the way. I just need to finalize a few things and then ink it. David's will take a little longer because of the embroidered red pandas. The things I put upon myself! Speaking of David, I won't post for him just yet since Joan hasn't given the go-ahead.

"Um..I don't really know. I guess Sirfire just made it up. She made up all of our names, I think. Stargirl, Cem/Cementha, PennyPacker....though Penny is a real name," I explain. Wow. I made a friend! "Sunflower is on the nose. Quite appropriate. Hey, do you want some food? I'm kind of hungry." I hope for a yes as I wait for her answer.

Harper~

People gradually start dancing as Penny and I shake our booties. I feel like I'm with Phox all over again. Except, I felt different. Like...like....my stomach is flopping and my heart is pounding and I have a lot of energy.  Penny's eyes are closed as she shakes her head back and forth, her hair flying around her head. I blush when when I look at her.  She opens her eyes and looks at me. I look away quickly and boogie, too. I smile a tiny little smile as we dance next to each other. 

That feeling.....I feel like....like I likde Penny.

I’m soo glad Rigel said yes! Wow. He is soo handsome. I, wow. Just wow. He glances over at me as we arrive at the ball. Dolphin hired a dragon to get us here. She’s amazing. I’m really nervous, but I step off and immediately neglect to remember to help Rigel down. Oops. Rigel doesn’t seem to mind though, as he’s grinning and has already started toward the ballroom. “Did you hear that there’s food?” He says. “Maybe there will be dog friendly chocolate!” I grin and say, “immmm surre there issss. annnd vensn!” We walk in and immediately bump into someone. “ooops, sorry!” I say. “It’s okay! I’m Stargirl. What’s your name?” “immmm vixen” I notice she is holding a smiley face cookie. She says...

 

Is this an okay representation of Stargirl?

Nihil~

I laugh to see my brother's little cocoon open, revealing him and his girl, Vivian now fondling a rose. I'm impressed. My brother is better at this than I thought. I lean back and close my eyes. Niko does the same.

"So, I'm still kinda confused," I start, "What is your situation, exactly? Are you an entirely different person who possesses Rhaksha's memories, or no?"

submitted by Nihil and Lux
(February 29, 2020 - 4:58 pm)

Niko~

"Not exactly," I answer. "I'm a different person who possesses Rhaksha's memories, and the same personality."

"Ah." Nihil opens one eye. I wink, and she smiles slightly. "Is it the same with Alex?"

"Yep. Although the wording of our personalities is a little different."

Nihil~

"That is helpful." I smile. Niko smiles too, and looks quickly down into the fray. I wonder what he is thinking, but I'm personally enjoying just BEING that I don't disturb our personal silence.

... I have a problem.
