Kyoto & Co.ParticipantNo. No, no, no, no, no! Avy, I shall NOT let you drag me to a…ball. *shiver*
Oh Quentin. It’ll be a chance to make new friends!
I don’t have “FRIENDS!!! :DD<3”
Me?
You don’t count.
You child. Okay fine. I’ll do the shopping for a month.
…really?
Really. You won’t have to be anywhere involving a chip and pin machine or groceries.
Fine. But I’m here to watch in the corner and observe people, not dance unless I absolutely have to.
Okay. But try not to show off.

Age: Around 16-18
Appearance: She has chocolate brown skin with a few freckles sprayed on her cheeks, almond brown eyes, high cheekbones, full lips, a button-esque nose, and dark eyebrows. She has dark brown hair that is fluffy and loosely curly, with a natural light brown streaks/fade down to about the middle of her back. She’s slim and average height. She’ll be wearing a black women’s tux suit. The bow with the suit isn’t like a normal tux bow, but it’s much looser, and a bit more stringy.
Last name: Abney
Your date: She doesn’t have one, but she will be DJing
Your middle name: The initial starts with a D
Your CBer: Kyoto
Your personality: Avy isn’t super chipper and talkative. Don’t get me wrong, she’s definitely nice and social, but she just likes to observe and wait until she has something to say before she talks, although once you get to know her, she does talk often. She’s an ambivert. Avy laughs and smiles often, but she’s also sometimes sarcastic and accidentally rude to arrogant and ignorant people. She’s a strong advocate for what she believes in, but strongly prefers peace over war.
Your first name: Avy

Age: Around 16-18
Appearance: Short, wild tousled hairstyle-his hair is a flaming natural red. He has fair skin and a lot of freckles, and has dark green eyes. He’s pretty tall and is slim but has an athletic build. He will be wearing a dark blue tux.
Last name: Sherinford (oh yes I did)
Your date: He doesn’t have one. Not yet at least- AVY!
Your middle name: He has several. Let’s go with Euan (like Ewan) for now.
Your CBer: Kyoto
Your personality: Quentin doesn’t really get human emotion. Meaning, half of the time he doesn’t realise if he’s hurting someone by his words. He’s bitterly sarcastic and sardonic, and extremely smart. He talks often and can sometimes be arrogant or hypocritical. However, on some days he’s more human towards the people he actually cares about. He gets bored easily, especially around people he doesn’t like, and his mind moves ten times faster than his mouth. Although he may be smart, sometimes he doesn’t think before he speaks, and he’s overly observant of everything.
Your first name: Quentin

Leeli-StartingParticipantWell, AEBALL! said we could start after four and a half CBers commented with their Æs, and since we've passed that point, I thought it would be okay if I started. I hope that's okay with everyone.
Far~
I thought a ball would be enjoyable, a chance to get out, to meet some people. And, since Seren was going to come…
Well, I'm afraid I didn't exactly think this through. As I walk up to the building, I realize it's huge. I'm suddenly very uncomfortable. I'm not sure what I was expecting, but I wish I had stayed back home, in the woods.
But I'm here now. I take a deep breath, and walk in.
The doors go straight into the ballroom, which is huge, and elegant, decorated beautifully. It makes me feel small. I glance around quickly, but I don't see Seren anywhere. I am one of the first ones to arrive, however, and soon a few more people arrive.
I drift over to the refreshments, located at the end of the Ballroom, near a door that I assume leads into the battle room. I glance over the assortment of strange food and decide I'm not hungry. So I begin to pace, slowly.
Devin~
I don't think Nymph is coming. She never signed up; I don't blame her. I know she prefers her woods. So I'm going stag. But I'm fine with that. It'll be nice to be able to go to ball without my nerves standing on end. Maybe it'll give me a chance to pull some pranks. I'm always nervous around girls. They're so unpredictable, and you never know what they're thinking. Except for Wren. I almost always know what she's thinking.
The ballroom's huge. I immediately find the refreshment table and help myself to a handful of cookies, shoving them in my mouth before anyone can notice how many I've taken. I realize too late that maybe the way my cheeks are bulging is more noticeable than eating the cookies one at a time.
Meh. At this point, I don't really care.
I notice Far's over here, too. He's pacing, and he looks nervous. I almost feel bad for him. It's his first ball, and he's already got a date, although I don't think she's here yet. I was surprised he wanted to come. I thought he'd rather hide in the woods. By the way he looks, I think he's changed his mind about the whole ball thing. It must be awkward, being the only elf here yet. I'm sure he'll feel better when Seren gets here.
I wander over to some seats pushed up against the wall and sit down. I need to plan out my first prank.
Wren~
As I walk into the ballroom, I wonder why I'm here. I don't have a date, I'm socially awkward, and I basically have no friends. I'll have to interact with people on a large scale. I'll probably be miserable.
Leeli said that maybe I'll meet some nice people. But I kind of doubt that.
I suddenly think of Storm. Silver said he'd be gone for the winter.
I can't wait for spring.

Viola?ParticipantSecret
SecretAah! Nymph! Come quick!
What?
It's Devin! We missed his invitation! Do you want to go?
*reads post* Seems like he's fine without me. Uncomfortable around girls, too.
… *form stretches and twists uncertainly
That's… Wow… How are your bones…? The ligaments–muscles, feathers, how are you producing all of that? Magic or something, I know, but wow.
*shifts into a rock*
Well, that was just out of spite, wasn't it. *laughs*
So, in short, I think Nymph's not coming, no, but don't take it personally. I would offer you striped carnations if I had any.
-
LeeliParticipantAh, I understand completely. I'm sure Devin does too, although he'll be a little disappointed to have to prank everyone by himself (it's a big job, best done by two or more, but he will certainly manage).
Striped carnations?
It's a flower.
No hard feelings, Nymph!
Wow, that was slightly out of character…
Aw, shut your pie hole. *submit*
-
Viola?ParticipantSecret
SecretHuh, my post got edited. I thought what I'd put was allowed.
Striped carnations, yes. Carnations have different meanings according to their color, which is due in part to the Victorian era, in which they were used to send coded messages between those in romantic situations. Basically the question would be a yes/no question or an invitation, and the recipient would send back a carnation. Red meant yes, yellow meant no, and striped meant regretfully, no. Other colors represent other things–white carnations are for pure love and good luck, purple are for capriciousness, and pink are for a mother's love. Red carnations have extra meanings, too–light red is for admiration, and dark red is for deep love and affection. For my bouquet, I would have chosen white and red stripes, to say that I'm sorry, she's not coming, but good luck, she still likes you, and I ship you. 😉
*to no one* Wow, that was a lot… But I am free! The carnation-color-meanings lecture has been delivered! The prophecy has been fulfilled! Okay, not that last part, there was no prophecy.
*elbows* Hey, can't a shifter get a word in?
Nymph! I thought you left.
Nope. You were wrong.
Alas, ''tis so. I was distracted by carnations, and failed to observe the rock remaining at the edge of my sight. Although you're not a rock anymore.
Mm. Thanks, Devin. See you later.
*whispers* Oh my gosh she said see you later is she planning a date is she planning the lessons oh, I forgot about the shapeshifter lessons, maybe I should say something about that–
Shipping corner. *hits submit* 7

SilverwaxwingParticipantI know, Wren. I miss Storm so much. Leon just doesn't cut it.

WrenParticipant*nods sadly* I think about him every day. Leon is a great person, but he can't replace Storm in any sense.
