Lucifer

Still hiding behind tiny Ruby

Ruby

I'll have you know I have accomplished one of my goals! I apparently am a teen aged boys wet dream!

Abbadon

Why??

Ruby

good question

Lucifer

She's good cover

Crowley

You did not tell me if it can be posted in Bunker Ruby, he wants to but is waiting for permission from you

Ruby

Doubtful

Crowley

Raises both hands

Abbadpn

whispers back Yes my 25 hours are up. The holiday is done. And I'm going home.. but thank you

Lucifer

Raises 4 hands

Ruby

Sorry....if it makes his day, who am I to deny him that?

Abbadon

Lol What?

Crowley

I will say it in here cause its funny. Dean's son Logan ((IRL)) is 17 and was doing Unicorn Nicknames for the group last night for shits and giggles. Ruby got UniBooby

Abbadon

I wink at you missed you all

Lucifer

Peeks out are you flirting with me carrot top

Abbadon

Lucifer

I don't really remember... when I have a bad episode... of my bpd I tend to blank the day sorry...

Abbadon

Lucifer

Me too..I'd be lost without the escape

Abbadon

She will be…So don't lose it. And we won't let you slip.

Lucifer

Didn't know you felt that way Carrot top Pats head

Abbadon

I punch you in the neck I'll be even more bored if you won't be here for me to pick on

Lucifer

Coughs and laughs then tosses you across the room into the wall the feeling is mutual

Ruby

Grabs the popcorn and a chair to watch WWF wrestling right before my very eyes!

Abbadon

Omg I miss this!! Being reasonable was getting this badass character no justice what so ever

Lucifer

We are in a site with 3 demons and the devil pretty sure we are going to beat each other like 50 times a day 😂😂

Abbadon

I fly to the other side landing on my feet and one hand like a cat kind of sliding. I smile you just have to punch last do you? I charge right at you trying to knock you down

Lucifer

I teleport out the way and watch you run head first into the wall tilting my head a little how did you think that was going to work!? Charges toward you

Abbadon

It's not just that. With this war on hell I was so alone with all the humans and all the drama. No way to be bad for me. To do all out!!. And yea. I like doing that with you. You make me think harder and try to be more creative

Lucifer

aww thank you I like doing it with you too

Abbadon

my smile turns to a laughter as I can't even talk anymore. I hit the wall and it does nothing to me. I look at you coming at me and jump above you to the other side. Vanishing mid jump

Ruby

Can I opt out of that part? I'll just cheer the winner on

Lucifer

Places my hand on the wall stopping myself before I head butt it and looks around 🎵run rabbit run rabbit run run run Lucis coming out with a loaded gun 🎵

Abbadon

I appear next to you scratching your eyes out and vanish again

Lucifer

I managed to duck my head before you touch my eyes, though getting a scratch on my forehead. I lick the blood dripping down and laugh come on coward you can't just hide and not fight.

Ruby

Ducking out for a bit. Gotta tidy up. Abaddon, let me know when you feel like writing.

Lucifer

See ya sweetie have fun

Abbadon

I appear on the other side of the room not hiding. Just trying to surprise you. Let's see how Good you really are. I vanish again and come at you from behind I swap your feet from under you and then slam you to the floor. ok

Lucifer

If you announce that then of course I'm going to be prepared Jumps watches, you fall under me then I pin you down and smirk you need better tactics maybe bite your tongue before attacking. Always going to be 1 step ahead of you

Abbadon

I use my feet to hit you in the neck and pin you to the ground if you think that this is going all out you are mistaken. I'm just having some fun. Finally, I have someone that can really make this a bit of a challenge I won't use my powers this is going to be pure combat

Ruby

thinks to myself....I'm going to stick to my Krav Maga dvds

Lucifer

Looks up at you while laughing finally having fun and spits out some blood All out? Meaning killing each other? Even though you can't kill me but I can easily end you? Don't worry you're not worth it yet, I'm just having fun Places my feet on your stomach and kicks you off me, then jumps up and punches you into the wall too

Abbadon

You just Said Krav Maga and my mind went 🤯. I love this group

Ruby

I really do have Krav Maga DVDs....just need to dust them off

Abbadon

I feel THAT. Finally something is happening. I fly to the other side of the room and my breath escapes from me. I taste the metallic taste of blood and saver it. I slip to the ground laying there

Lucifer

Laughs and walks over to you red really is your colour Holds my hand out

Abbadon

Just faking me being out. I hold your legs with my hands. I'm so not done yet. I raise you up on my shoulder and them flip you over my shoulder to the ground stepping on you this is what you fell for? I look at my shirt and my hands with the blood I do look great in red I smile

Lucifer

Smacks my head and back on the floor, feeling something as I cough and laugh loudly looking up at you taking a moment to breath hey ill give you that one Licks blood of my lips and feels the warm liquid under my hair. I wrap my arm around your ankle and drag you to the ground hard, punching you in the stomach when you hit the floor

Abbadon

I hit the floor. Hard. Can't breathe and then I feel the punch and all the wind in my lounges is out. I cough blood trying to laugh and when i smile my teeth red. I feel it healing as we both laying on the floor I use your head to get up squeeze your face. When I'm on my feet I hold my hand to you more?

Crowley

Is watching while reading my grimoire You bleed you clean it

Lucifer

Pushes my hands on the floor, pushing myself and sitting there for a moment, wiping my mouth with the back of my hand, feeling my wounds heal. I grab your hip and pull myself off the ground. I then pull my fist back and punch you in the jaw. I look at Crowley great wise words from the ex King

Crowley

Flips a page It is relaxing not having to deal with the dumbasses, let Ruby solve that issue

Ruby

I flipped through the manual yesterday. I believe you left out the chapter on "dumbasses."

Crowley

must have been left out when I made that copy, so sorry

Lucifer

The original has it

Crowley

it does, she didn’t ask for the original

Lucifer

I burnt the original

Crowley

thus why she didn’t get it, she got a copy

Ruby

I should have guessed. Smirks at the surprise with the Grimoire as well

Crowley

I figured, but I dont see anything missing yet so there’s that, I really only need the one spell, the rest mother has in her books and I copied them, I can do so again

Ruby

I smile bigger

Lucifer

You have Sam you don't need anything bigger

Ruby

Indeed

Crowley

I dont wanna go to work in a few minutes lol

Lucifer

THEN DONNNNNTTTTT

Ruby

I knew you were stalling....

Abbadon

I put my hand back when I see you won't take it. I see everything you do and then feel your weight on my hips. And I miss your punch as it hits me right in the jaw. I hear a Crack and when I smile I feel the hurt and my head is a bit dizzy. I mentally shrug it will heal. as I see you are distracted by Crowley I hold your hands and rip them off. Slapping you with them. I can't breathe. This time from laughing why are you hitting yourself?

Lucifer

Looks down at my now stumps bleeding all over the floor, wincing a little at the pain this is the 2nd time I've lost my hands! Closes my eyes while my hands smack me, blood going everywhere from you messing with my newly ripped off hands. While you're distracted by a childish tease, I kick you in the knee, snapping your leg back, the bone popping out of your skin

Crowley

Im taking my mini me with me. gonna see how many complaints I get from customers cause its funny when they think Im a devil worshipper

Lucifer

👀 Well I have no complaints

Abbadon’

Lol.. they can go and- fill the blank

Crowley

She fucking is, so when we place orders for ourselves the computer won't generate the discount code if it's under our name. So we use fake ones, I use supernatural, tonight, I'm debating Lucifer cause the cook I hate is a Christian dick who is a major homo/Trans phobic douche

Abbadon

my laughter is cut off by my losing my leg grip on the ground as you kick my knee and I can feel the skin ripping and I drop your hands. I feel the pain of my bone snapping. Another bone break that hurt. I like it. That's going to be fun. I snap my bone back and take a deep breath from the pain all the while I jump on one foot oh that's better as I put my feet on the ground I let it heal ok big boy. I smirk red works on you too.. it matches your eyes. But I haven't seen them yet. Should I give you a stick?

Ruby

I thought so. Military being required. It teaches you a lot about yourself. I think a 2 year hitch should be required over here

Lucifer

So you can break it again? My hands heal as I wiggle all ten fingers, then flash my eyes teasingly you mean these bad boys I crack my bones and ready myself for another blow

Abbadon Did you do it too?

Ruby

Air Force

Abbadon I smirk. Of course I wanted to break it again that was fun. I see you getting ready and I hold my hand and tap you on your forehead. Good!!! How was it?

Ruby

Was an aircraft mechanic until I became allergic to the chemicals you clean the engine parts with. Cross transferred to administrative until enlistment up

Crowley

Diesel mech. Until Obama

Lucifer

When your hand connects to my forehead, I grab it and twist it around, snapping your wrist and arm, placing it behind your back, pressing your face against the cold brick wall, grazing it as I do

Crowley

Bio Mom was an abusive alcoholic, so I left, my adopted momma helped me do it and paid the legal fees

Abbadon

I'm brother did something similar. I love that you were a mechanic. That's fascinating

Ruby

Eh, wasn't at the top of my list. But they had to show how "diversified" they were and that's where they put me. Took away my chance to go to England as well.

Abbadon

From my hand. My wrist. My arm. And than my face.. I can feel My teeth grinding the wall as you put my head in to it. As I know you are close to me from behind I use me leg and kick up crutch (empty one?). My face burning from the graze

Lucifer

Let's out a gasp, pushing more against you and the wall, slicing your skin off on the wall not the worst pain I've felt down there before, have you met Charlie Bends your arm further up your back do you give?

Abbadon

Can't speak. I flip u the finger no way I'm hellI use my entire body to push you and me from the wall smashing you on the opposite one. The pain in my arm is growing but I ignore it

Lucifer

My back cracks against the wall as I growl in pain, not letting go of your arm, kneeing you in the back of the knee, blood dripping down the wall behind me Come...on carrot top...take the lose speaks into your ear with a laughing tone

Abbadon

The pain in my jaw and my face did not heal yet. And I grunt as I try to release my arm from you're grip. Moving against you. I hit your face with the back of my head trying to break you're nose. The hit hurts me too eat me

Lucifer

I hear my nose crunch from the impact of your head, blood dripping down my lips as I suddenly release you, covering my nose, cracking it back in place, laughing at the pain shit nice shot

Abbadon

I'm dizzy from my own blow. And it takes me a sec to realize you left my arm. It's dangling on my side as I hear what you say but it's like an echo. I miss a step and sit down. I feel the back of my head with my hand and it has blood on it. I smile. Still sitting on the floor Never give up. I learned from the best I keep my smile on, but I feel a pinch in my chest as Cain’s name pops in to my head

Lucifer

Smiles covered in blood trying to catch my breath, sliding down the wall and sits on the ground, my back resting against the wall it's okay to give up Abby, remember we are just having fun Snaps my fingers and a bottle of water appears in my hand, one in front of you as I down my bottle, the water turning red from blood

Abbadon

Looking at you. I nod this is fun. But my training are so carved deep in to my bones. Into my soul. I'm never gonna be able to get rid of them. I can't be weak. Never. the fact that I'm doing it for fun. Not giving it all of me is hard as it is. Not to try to win. Just to try and have a little me back you know? why am I telling him that? He doesn't care. I try and get my head straight. To put the wall back up. The wall that his name just cracked. So i take the water with one hand, as the other is still dangling, and spill it on my face just to cool off

Lucifer

I place the bottle down and tilt my head a little listening to unleash some inner thoughts Cain isn't around anymore Abby, you dont have to try so hard anymore. You don't have to try anymore at all at least. Not against us. Them. Just the ones who are part of us. Cain is dead. Staying dead. You're not his soilder anymore.

Abbadon

he listened? And he is nice?. I nod my head. I block my thoughts from you as the way Cain made me feel pops into my head. It was different. I put everything he was to me back in a box in my mind and release my mental Barriers. you don't understand. I don't try to do it. This comes to me as a second nature. I do try to hold my self back cause this is important to me.. somehow.. I don't know it's so confusing. I hold my head and flinch as I used the hand who was still healing

Lucifer

I crawl across the floor, putting my hand up a little as to say I surrender and not to attack. I sit in front of you and place my hands over your wounds, my hand glowing as I heal you

Ruby

Are you two still at it?! I think it's time for a draw. Save some for another time. I shake my head

Lucifer

We are done Glares at you finishing healing Abby

Ruby

Same time tomorrow?

Lucifer

Me vs you, your tiny majesty

Ruby

"Riiiiiight....uh....no!"

Lucifer

That's what I thought Smilez

Ruby

"I don't have to be in that kind of shape to do paperwork"

Lucifer

Paperwork, 😂 nah you're just to weak to fight me.

Ruby

"I find no reason TO fight you Lucifer." I shake my head at the child before me

Crowley

Aren't we all?

Lucifer

Thank you

Ruby

"Weighing what I know about being an adult vs the carefree life of a child, there is no contest"

Abbadon

confused at what you are doing i let you get close. I feel my wounds heal as you put as you put your hands on me. The warmth from you healing me is nice. And the fact that you did that just like that makes me feel better about all of this thanks. it's not enough but that's all I got. For now. It's not a draw. It's something else. But as Lucifer said. We are done

My opinions on every Dream smp character (/rp /c! /lh)

THIS IS NOT ABOUT THE CREATORS THIS IS ABOUT THE CHARACTERS AND THIS IS ALL SAID LIGHTHEARTEDLY!!!

Dream - die.

George - Does he even exist??? I think he just stays asleep in a shroom forest until Dream XD drags him out for “fun time.”

Sapnap - Pet Killer. >:( But is engaged to Karl and Quackity who are both cool so I guess it’s fine.

Callahan - All knowing and terrifying, but fantastic and great.

Sam - What the fuck??? Is??? Going on with this man??? He’s fucked up. I don’t think hes a bad person but he needs someone to tell him to fucking stop, because he has done bad shit, even if I dont think he’s bad, like, what in the fuck. I kinda wanna bite him.

Warden - IM SORRY IM SORRY DONT KILL ME FUCK SHIT PISS BALLS IM SOR

Sam Nook - The best Sam. I’d kill and die for him. irl. /gen. This is not a joke. I love this robot. SO MUCH. Love so muchh. <333

Alyssa - Exists? I think???

Ponk - I don’t know a lot about her but I want to know more and I know they are WONDERFUL AND DIDN’T DESERVE WHAT SAM DID TO HIM, SAM WHAT THE FUCK, THIS IS WHY YOU NEED TO BE PUT IN FUCKING LINE, PONK WAS SO NICE TO YOU EVEN AFTER ALL THAT, WHAT THE FUUUUCK

BBH - Bit fucked up. Not that pleasant.

Tommy - Big Man. Always correct. Don’t argue with me about this, I'll bite you. And he probably will too. He reminds me of me when I was in middle school and because of that I will side with him always.

Tubbo - Awe, what a little lad! Oh, he’s a bit fucked up. O-oh… he’s a LOT fucked up… Still a little lad though! Also pretty gender. Also according to literally every single “WHICH DSMP CHARACTER ARE YOU?” quiz I take I’m him, so that’s cool!

Fundy - I hold you very gently and tenderly but also very far away at arms length just in case.

Punz - Punz

Purpled - Funky fucking alien boy!!! Good builder, really cool, deserved better, I got really sad when Quackity blew up his UFO because it looked fucking sick and if it was mine I would have cried.

Wilbur - Seems very polite, but also maybe a little unhinged…

Ghostbur -pspsppssps sweet man so polite come back to me please pspspspspspspps come here pspspspspspspss yes I would love some blue now come closer pspsppspspspspss

Revivedbur - Sir please do not fuck this up I’m rooting for you because I know you can do great things please do not make me regret this please sir I believe in you please

Schlatt - Drunk bitch. Fuckin died. L.

Skeppy - Wait what even is your lore? You got corrupted by the Egg at some point but did you do anything after that?? Do you even still EXIST????

Eret - King, Queen, Royalty at its finest, you have tried so hard and I love you for it, also you’re violently gender and kinda pretty ngl so I may be biased but stfu you fucking kill it you funky fucking Herobrine ily <333

Jack Manifold - ON THAT JACK MANIFOLD GRIND! THE JACK MANIFOLD GRIND NEVER STOPS!

Nikki - Babe ily you deserved better, I may be rooting for Revivedbur but if you wanna punch that mf in his undead face I fully support you ily ily ily

Quackity - YOU! YOU!!! FUCKING YOU!!! I’M GOING TO VIOLENTLY ADORE YOU!!! YOU ARE SO FUNKY!!! YOU’RE ONE OF THE ONLY CAPITALISTS I WILL ACCEPT!!! FUCKMAN!!! LOVE YOUR WORK ON ALL THOSE WARCRIMES!!! <3333333

Karl Jacobs - Funky Time lad! Also really pretty. And kinda gender, but only a little bit. Those cool drawings of his old skin that the fandom came up with where he's a weird colorful rubber-hose-armed marshmallow human thing are more gender than what he is now, though.

Hbomb - Furry /pos. Seems nice enough.

Technoblade - BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD! TECHNO NEVER DIES! LOVE ME AN ANARCHIST OLD MAN PIG WHO WILL DESTROY ANYTHING IN HIS PATH! Also Piglin /pos.

Antfrost - Furry /neg. He’s actually fine, but I don't actually have much to say about him.

Philza Minecraft - is quite old, he is married to a woman, which I find interesting. I love him but would also like to punch him, just once. Just one little punch. Nothing super hard, just a little punch. Love ya, Dadza <3

Connor - Sonic Kinnie. I know he has lore but I cannot understand it and only know 1/10 of it so I can't actually say much about him. He seems depressed all the time though, so I feel bad for him.

Captain Puffy - The best Father I have ever seen <3 Also the only semi-fucking-responsible adult??? Like Sam used to be too but then he… yeah… I love her!

Viky - Doesn't exist in cannon I think??

Lazar - Does he exist in cannon either????

Ranboo - YOU!!! You <333 YOUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!! I love you!! You make me a little sad sometimes but also INCREDIBLY happy!! My little hypocrite <3 my little walking contradiction <3 also REALLY gender, VIOLENTLY so. And Enderman /very pos.

Foolish - I like you! I don’t know much about you, but I’m learning more! I like your builds and attitude! Nice man :)

Hannah - I know literally NOTHING about you at all but I want to because you seem so badass and cool holy shit

Slimecicle - FUCKING WEIRD ASS SLUDGE MONSTER FROM THE BEGINING OF TIME???? YES PLEASE!!! SO GENDER!!! SO COOL!!! LOVE!!! LOVE LOV ELVOEKJDENJJW!!!!!!!!!! I love this fucking man <3333333 Filled with bones and meat and not slime at all <333333333

Michael McChill - Dream Stan /neg I don’t know much about this guy, actually, pretty neutral on him.

Michael _Beloved - Nice boy! Very polite! Probably could kill me if he wanted! Good lad!

Michelle - Oh she would whoop my ass. Great and fantastic!

Yogurt - babeyy,,,,,, boi,,,,, come hereee,,,,,, pspspsppspspsspspsp,,,,,,, i love youuu,,,,,,,

Foolish Jr. - Seems energetic and excitable! Good lad!

Finley - Fantastic, wonderful girl!

Shroud - I LOVE YOU. I WILL FIGHT ANY WAR YOU ASK ME TO. I WILL KILL MY FAMILY FOR YOU. SHROUD SUPREMACY. AAAAAAAAAAAA.

Mexican Dream - Eyyyyyy look at he! Look at the he!!! I like he :)))) he’s cool.

Dream XD - Oh so you’re THAT kind of asshole. Love it. 10/10. Also biblically accurate angel inspired designs for this mf??? So gender. Violently gender. Love that shit.

Drista - YOU!!!! ARE!!! SO!!!! COOL!!!! I WOULD KILL AND DIE FOR YOU!!!! LET'S BLOW SHIT UP TOGETHER!!!! CHAOS!!!!! ARSON!!!!! YES!!!!!

Mamacita - p, prett y wom an,,,

Mumza Kristin - If anyone doesn't like Mumza I’ll cut their body into fourths and burry the pieces under a Denny’s <3 She’s so poggers.

Friend - Friend! :DDD

👑 We are here to introduce ourselves. I'm Ryan, and I'm the prince in charge. Let me start by saying we are not a DID system, we are merely Sunny's sides, much like the Sander's Sides show on YouTube. I am his creativity and love of acting, and the main side in charge. I am a prince after all~

😎 Hey, sup, yall, I'm Remy. I'm Sunnys sass and his addiction to coffee. Don't get in my way, I'm straight but act Hella gay lol

📚 I am Kayto. I am sunnys logic and his love of learning and puzzle games like Portal 2 and maze games. I'm also the one of the group who like documentaries and Game Theory.

💫 HIIIIII!!!! I'm Joop!! I'm his ADHD and his hyper fixations on aaaaaaaaaalllllll his favorite hobbies. I love singing, and dancing, and instruments, and drawing, and painting, and rp, and puppiesssss!!!!! Ryan's better at keeping me focused on the creative stuff, but I love keeping everyone on their toes of what I wanna do next!

🦨 Hello~ I'm Trashman. I'm his gross and stinky creativity. (I'm the one that comes up with ideas in the bedroom~~ hehehehe

Trashman!!

🦨well its true~

You dont tell people that!

🦨oh well~

🌧 *sigh* Anyway, I'm Ximmens. I'm Sunnys depression, anxiety, and the quietest in the group. Okay bye

💭 Im Kyle. I'm basically the "go-with-the-flow" side of Sunny's personality. Im also the peace-keeper between the others, so when a fight breaks out I try and keep everybody calm enough to work through our issues.

💞 Hi, lovelies, I'm Mom. I'm Sunnys morality and love for his family. Even though his family is mostly found family ^_^

🧡 Hey, everybody, I'm Dad. I'm another facet of his morality, and his "dad-friend" side. I'm the one that likes to take care of the others and make everyone feel loved

💙 Heeeeyyyy little dudessss! I'm Blue! I'm Sunnys confidence. Ryan and I had to leave for a while, but were back! We are back and better than EVER!

🌙 Hello, I'm exhaustion. I'm basically his love of sleep, and sunnys ability to fall asleep anywhere. But if something needs to get done or if a friend needs help, I help keep him awake at night to make sure what needs to happen happens. No matter what time it is.

💘 I am Lust. I am sunnys romantic side, and, well, his lust. I make all of Trashman's wonderful ideas more romantic and beautiful. I'm what makes him obsessed over Cass, his fiance. I love when two people find each other and are a perfect fit. Its the most beautiful thing.

🌸 *sits and wags tail happily* (Hi there! I'm Sweetie. I'm a dog! I'm Ximmen's therapy dog. I love making people happy and just being a shoulder to cry on. I dont even need to say much, just be there and it helps!)

💥 RUFF RRRRUFF!! *pants happily and runs in circles with a toy* (Hi! Hi! Hi! Wanna play?? I'm Candy! I'm Joop's dog! I run around and love to play! Whenever someone's feeling sad, I'm the part of sunny that will make a silly face or say something silly to make them laugh!)

And thats everybody! Or at least everybody who's shown themself to me. I'm Sunny, and these are my sides! Thank you for reading, and we hope to talk to you guys more soon!

its ok despite all my essays n angst i actually enjoy fluff/comfort the most so have some amongst some toast (i think thats what tubbo said his ghost vers would be?? idk but it is cute) hcs KDNSK

bc alive tubbo has such a difficult time with it i think toast would be bad at dealing with the whole "im a separate person from the alive version of me" deal, it takes a while for him to stop but he does because its painful to refer to himself as tommys best friend or ranboos husband or michaels father and just have that deepset regret when someone has a beat of silence and toast has to go "..or i used to be, i guess, haha"

he starts having fun with it, though. makes his own name for himself, does things he maybe wouldnt have done while alive. experiments with being a ghost, looks more into limbo and the afterlife and what even causes the separation. he doesnt drown himself in it, not truly bound to expectations like alive tubbo was. still works anyways, because he wants to, because tommy deserves his best friend back and ranboo deserves his husband and michael deserves his father. he isnt quiet when he firmly says that the true main reason is because tubbo deserves to be alive and happy and experience his life as himself, and that above all hes doing this because he deserves to find a way for them both to exist, to be happy and their own people and loved by themselves no matter who else loves them.

theres a connection established eventually. if we're to take rp/mc rules here, only one can really be around at a time, toast has to be off while tubbo is on and such. they make it work. if we're to take complete creative liberty, they coexist peacefully, even if awkwardly

tommy learns to be quieter for tubbo, holds a torch for them both whenever they walk in the dark, holds tubbos sleeve when tubbo cant see because he doesnt want tubbo to wander blindly but knows tubbo wouldnt want to be touched and risk reacting harshly to stimulation with touch too. ranboo helps him get used to stimulation again, lets his particles be soft glowing lights for tubbo to contast the bright fireworks, makes him earmuffs for when things are just too loud but tubbo doesnt want to block everything out completely. michaels already quiet, but foolish and his kids help set up fairylights in michaels room and michael makes blanket forts so tubbo can touch the ceiling of them as he lies down and he can exit at any time

its hard, sometimes. but tubbo makes it through, even in the times where others arent around to help. maybe limbo broke him for a bit there, but tubbos good at building, he can build himself back up -🎭🎪 (oh also tubbo being surrounded with soft things in general. the empty endless sky isnt great for keeping warmth, but fluffy blankets and big fur lined coats are)

TUBBO WITH SOFT THINFS TUBBO WITH EARMUFFS..... GOODNESS

( HEIDY, 23, SHE/THEY, CST. ) ☆ Open your hands and hope to catch a star, KIM JANGJUN, and it might just grant your wish. At TWENTY FIVE years old with an odd resemblance to SONG KANG, you don’t seem like the type who should be caught in a town like this, but who am I to judge? I’m sure there are others who are just as RETICENT yet MAGNANIMOUS and INSOUCIANT… although, really, I don’t think anyone else could remind me so much of RIPPED JEAN JACKETS, A SMILE NOT QUITE REACHING HIS EYES, and CAR DRIVES WITH NO DESTINATION. It seems you’ve lived here for ALL YOUR LIFE working as AN INNKEEPER AT DOTORI INN, but didn’t I overhear you wishing YOU COULD FIND YOUR LOVE FOR ART AGAIN the other night? Oh, I’m mistaken, hm? Don’t worry, your secret’s safe with me; a little wish has never hurt anybody.

alignment : lawful good

━ ˙ ˖ ☆ BACKSTORY !

son of kim seokcheon and jo minsu , their first born , pride n joy with shining qualities and the potential to become starlight bay’s shining light by the time he could talk. grinning ear to ear no matter the face that looked down at him and never once hesitating to stick his arms out for a hug.

grandson of kim minsoo and ahri , starlight bay’s actual pride n joy. the town’s favorite elderly couple aka owners of the dotori inn. these are the ones to thank for jangjun’s gracious upbringing. not that he had a negative relationship with his own parents , he loved them just as much as the next loved child , but any chance he’d gotten he’d run right down to the inn to greet the guests ( regulars and newcomers alike ) alongside his grandparents and quickly became seen as one of them.

for as long as he or anyone could remember , jangjun was a frequent enjoyer of the arts. painting , drawing , mixing water with mud to make his own modeling clay — you name it. the simplest and most accessible form of self expression and gateway for those growing emotions. instead of talking out his feelings in a way he didn’t know how or dealing with an emotion as heavy as they came , he’d use these various forms of art to center himself in any way they allowed. it became something he enjoyed so much that he knew from such a young age what he wanted to do. he wanted to take what he loved and use it to help people. it felt unique , like he’d discovered something no one had ever done before and was putting something into the world that could make such an impact it would change it. it wasn’t until he was older that he realized what he wanted to be was an art therapist.

for years , jangjun stood along his grandparents and helped around the inn whenever he could. his own room granted in the old house in which they stayed not far from it. he was happy to be in a place where he was always helping people as he was taught this was the most important thing you could do , not only for others , but for yourself. ‘ what you put into this world is what you will get back. treat others with tenderness and you will never have to wonder who you are. ’ words of wisdom passed down from his grandfather and practically engraved into the back of jangjun’s brain.

along working at the inn , jangjun focused intently on his studies , never once slipping away from his enjoyment of creating. a teasing rumor had it the kim’s cloned jangjun at birth to be a prodigy of some kind because you’d find him in so many places at once. dotori inn by sunrise , and as the day progressed , you’d catch him around every single corner of town , always on the go and always seen putting a smile on the face of anyone he passed by. by the time he graduated high school , jangjun was presented with the opportunity of a lifetime. he was granted a scholarship to nyu , such a prestigious school known for their sought after art program. as eager and excited as he could be ( and already two trips to new york under his belt ) jangjun felt like he was on his own path.

that is , until , his grandmother became sick. faced with the challenging predicament , jungjae already knew what lied ahead. the choices were unfair regardless , but he had two. continue on to nyu and allow his younger sister to hold back on her dreams to stick around the inn .. or give up his own and resume as the kim jangjun dotori inn knew and needed. for him , the decision was easy.

🚨 🚨 POSSIBLE CONNECTION MAYHAPS ? — saving his sister’s future was not the only thing holding jangjun back to starlight bay , but a lover. another person in his life that wasn’t so easy to leave behind but an easy consideration to stay. to make it even angstier ? they broke up not long after he gave up on nyu to stick around.

fast forward to current times and you’ll still find him present at dotori inn to this day. rumor has it he’ll be the one taking over ownership once his grandparents are no longer able to. but anyone that knows him well enough knows that’s not what he wants. anyone that knows jangjun to his true core notices how he no longer leaves home with the same paint residue on his clothes , no longer has that smile that reaches his eyes anytime they’re met and no longer carries that same passion that he once did. you’ll still find him helping around town and putting those in need above his own , of course. after all , it’s what he’s been taught his whole life to do. everyone always talks about the stars that fall over starlight bay and the wishes they grant you , but perhaps this is what was written for him in them all along.

━ ˙ ˖ ☆ PERSONALITY + TIDBITS !

sooooo as u could have guessed if u read any of the above gibberish is YEA jangjun puts everyone and anyone above him and would give you the shirt off his back if that was what u needed

he very much prides hard work though ?? like he’s not so much a pushover as he is just a very forgiving person and is willing to put issues to the side if it meant the greater good ....

if u are an asshole and ungrateful no he will not give u whatever u want or do anything u ask of him. he will simply tell u to learn how to do it on ur own BUT he will be willing to show u how <3

always outside .. always working on something or talking to someone .. always found absolutely anywhere and everywhere like seriously u just saw him at the inn an hour ago ? that’s great ur about to bump into him again at ur mom’s house because he agreed to help her fix a leak in her sink

ALSO HE HAS A DOG ... his little baby boy named cherry whom he plasters all over his social media. love cherry n jangjun loves u its a simple world we live in

a big part of his friendliness and eagerness to help others and make sure they are ok DOES come off as flirting i will nawt lie ? and u know what maybe he is just naturally a flirty person but he means well and wants people to feel like they have him whenever they need or want him ? SUE HIM ? SDDMDNCMCN

so sorry to the ones he lingers around a little too much and brings soup to ur door from his grandfather and always asks if u need help with whatever ur working on and u think there is something going on . no im sorry baby he just lives like that in 2021 can u believe

treasures his friends so greatly and yes , again , will bring u food twice a week and make sure ur eating well and not doing ur favorite activities alone i wish i had a jangjun truly 💔

UMMMMMM and .. umm and um ? he’s sweet and loves helping and he does it in a way that won’t let u take advantage of him and he just wishes for the growth and happiness of those around him. EXCEPT if ur mean / think u can just take and never give. if that’s the case then screw u - from jangjun

truly i hate this i wrote so much for no good reason … but anyway if ur like me & prefer discord for plotting u can add me @ heidykins#0016 and we can plot there ! but if discord is nawt ur jam we can plot over tumblr ims as well i just might be harder to reach there so pls be patient with me 🥺 anywayayayayyaya im SOO excited to be here & write with u all im so sry for the MESS of this intro she’s not so sexy but thats ok because i think jangjun makes up for it so um come plot with me <3trea

Random ask time! Care to name ten fics, any fandom, that you have or plan to reread? (Not necessarily your top ten because top ten is hard but ten that you genuinely enjoy.)

hi lynse i can’t believe you slightly switched the ask subject from what you were contemplating sending in dms. yes i do care to do this!!! fics follow

these are arranged in literally no order whatsoever except vaguely the order I remembered they existed and tragically they will mostly not be readable for you lynse on account of us sharing fandoms basically never. but in any case!!! let’s go!!!!

A Professor and a Student - LeDiz - Pokemon Anime (Alola) - multichap, complete - Professor Kukui’s pov outsider on Ash, through interstitial set during the first season of Alola anime. This fic is the fic that got me into pokeani in the first place, and I have reread it all the way through at least once and specific chapters genuinely so many times. it’s good! it’s got so many fun reveals! it’s even got a surprise plot! if someone is in pokeani fandom though there’s like a 95% chance they’ve already read it, so it’s kind of pointless to recommend

Broken Rules and Consequences - Redring 91 - Doctor Who (All Eras) - series, ongoing i think - This is one that i’m planning to reread rather than one i’ve already reread: I first read it back when i was originally into dw, in like 2013, and honestly lynse the timing was probably right for me to have recced it to you back then. in any case i have a friend who vouches for its continued quality, and it was straight-up the only dw fic i kept up with for several years after i first fell out of the dw fandom. it’s a really excellent exploration of all the times the doctor has met their past and future selves, and i highly recommend it. it’s also very long, so watch out!

An Unexpected Greeting - kimirice - Pokemon Anime (Alola) - threeshot, ongoing - it’s a fic in the “cynthia runs into ash in alola and dumbfounds his entire class” genre and it’s a good one. my favorite one. i reread it whenever i want to feel serotonin in my bones. serotonin does not go in bones. whatever, this fic is such a joy, it’s pretty short, please read it if you too want serotonin in your bones on account of revealssssss

Phone A Friend - TheBigCat - Doctor Who (Seventh Doctor Era / Gallifrey Audios Era) - oneshot - this is another “reread when i want serotonin in my bones” fic. it really is amazing just how much joy can be stored in a single 1K oneshot, it makes me so happy, that’s ace’s space dad........... wahhh the au - everything’s fine tag on this one really carries it right into my heart

dreamt you a kinder future - Sixteenthdays - Dream SMP - multichap, ongoing - my FRIENDS forcibly got me into the damn MINECRAFT RP. this is all you will see of it on this blog ever because i do have SOME dignity left but if you HAVE gotten bodily dragged into caring about the block men yourself please do enjoy this time travel fixit about pre-plot Dream getting dropped into post-Doomsday era canon and dealing with the fact that his future self is evil and ruined all his relationships. its very good i reread the ranboo chapter regularly

The Red Coast - Maldoror_Chant - One Piece - oneshot - genuinely hilarious pov outsider on post-skypiea straw hats via some idiot bounty hunters who think they‘re easy prey. it’s a lot of fun and it took me three entire rereads to catch the punchline, which i am still mad about. please read this fic i am shaking my fist at it

Though She Be But Little, She Is Fierce - Izzyaro - Pokemon Anime (Kalos Era) - multichap, abandoned(?) - a few years after the kalos crisis, Bonnie sets out on her own pokemon journey. told through the eyes of her very alarmed traveling companion, who so incredibly doesn’t know what to make of her. yes, it only has two chapters and hasnt updated in years. i do not care. the chapters stand alone as oneshots and this fic has done so much for me. its like 90% of the reason i write bonnie the way i do its such a joy

Keeping a Welcome - Gramarye (ao3 | ffn) - The Dark is Rising Sequence - oneshot - did you ever wonder, gee, zeph, why do you write so much loyalty content? and why is it all Like That? well, the answer is that i read this fic at a formative age and imprinted on it like a baby bird, and then subconsciously was shaped by it for the next decade. genuinely it is SO good. it’s so good guys. guys it’s so good im going to cry just thinking about it. o a t h s ,,, wahhhhhhh gramarye is probably my favorite fic author ever i love their stuff SO much. so much. i am going to cry im telling you!!!!!! (also while I'm here I also recommend everything else theyve ever written, especially the Eirias Triad, which i have reread probably as many times as there are fingers in my house, and which is only not on an entry on this list on account of me wanting to keep it at one rec per author)

Nah - soomin - One Piece - oneshot - the straw hats have been stuck in a time loop of their entire lives for many, many years, and boy are they having a good time causing chaos. this is one of the only op time travels that i feel like accurately captures what would actually happen if luffy did a time travel, and i love it. they’re having so much! infinite retries for the best adventure ever!

Insomnia - tikitikirevenge - The Legend of Zelda (Majora’s Mask) - multichap, abandoned(?) - novelization of majora’s mask with a twist: instead of resetting the three day loop every time, link gets exactly 5 cycles, and the whole thing is a stable time loop. its true it hasnt updated since 2015, but it was my favorite zelda fic back in middle school and i still reread it every few years to confirm that it’s just as good as i remember: it somehow always is. and every time, i forget just how agonizing (complimentary) the link&tatl friendship slowburn is like dear lord does this author know how to write a slowly developing relationship hh i wish more people would read this fic it’s really just very good ok dont mind that its abandoned just before the snowpeak temple

#i feel very much like i am committing a grave betrayal with how few of my friends' fics are on here but my friends write things that cause m #e to have emotions. i have enough of those already!!! i dont need more emotions!!!!!#long post #recs #zephflix original #chatter tag #asks and ask memes #pokemon #pokeani #doctor who #sighs......#dream smp #i GUESS that tag has to exist on my blog i GUESS #one piece #the dark is rising sequence #the legend of zelda #majora's mask #i tried to keep these summaries short but i feel like they got longer as i got further down the post. whoops #sorry this took so long to answer!

Fan-Fic FAQ

Thank you for the tag @greyhavenisback

1. How many works do you have on AO3?

2. What's your total AO3 word count?

121309

3. How many fandoms have you written for and what are they?

Only been on Ao3 for less than a year…

So right now It is 90% Haven with a few things for Resident Evil, Final Fantasy VII, and Lord of the Rings/Silmarillion thrown in.

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Kissing Scars- (2485 words) HAVEN. First story that I ever posted up on Ao3!

Love Lost and Love Found- (13775 words) HAVEN. Most read fic on Ao3 so far!

Harmless Flirting?- (4185 words) HAVEN. Sweet, sappy, angsty, all rolled into one!

Giving Thanks For You- (4637 words) HAVEN. Yes, another Nuke story- I have an addiction!

All I Want for Christmas Is….You?- (3159 words) HAVEN. First Three Gulls Story I ever wrote!

5. What's the fic you've written with the angstiest ending?

I have a collection of oneshots. One of them is an angsty piece that actually has the warning of “no happy ending found here.” It’s a small thing of only a few hundred words but yeah… angsty Duke feels all around!

6. What's the fic you've written with the happiest ending?

Almost all my stories have a happy ending or at least are well in line for there to be a happy ending in the readers’ mind when the story ends. As far as the happiest? I’d have to say Love Lost and Love Found- runs the full gamut of emotions and Duke saves Nathan. A close second would be Making a House Into a Home- small little thing but its part of my Three Stars of Haven works (Duke/Nathan/Dwight) and is a sweet sappy thing!

7. Do you write crossovers? If so, what is the craziest one you've written?

I usually despise crossovers but I have read some that are winning me over. I have not gotten to the point of writing a crossover yet, but I am considering the possibility, which is a big thing for me!

8. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

Hehehehe Ummm yeah. Nothing toooooo hard yet, I read it but am still getting to the point of being able to write it well. But yeah, there’s some smut and plans for many more. And who know, I get one year under my belt finally maybe I will be able to write it more easily!

9. Do you respond to comments, why or why not?

Yup- every comment gets at least a thank you reply of some kind. If a comment is nothing but a negative troll then I delete it and move on.

10. Have you ever received hate on a fic?

Thankfully no, but less than a year into posting my stuff online so I am sure they are to come eventually.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Nope.

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

No though that would be awesome!!!!

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

Not fully- the amazing GreyHaven has helped me plot out sections and scenes before. I would LOVE to do rps and write fics that way again!!!

14. What's your all time favourite ship?

Since I mostly write Haven stuff tight now I will rank my three faves for the fandom:

1 Nuke- Nathan and Duke

2 Three Gulls – Nathan, Audrey, and Duke

3 Three Stars – Nathan, Duke, and Dwight

15. What's a WIP that you want to finish but don't think you ever will?

Any of them? I have… *glances at WIP list* eeep! 6 different stories I am working on for various characters and pairings in Haven…. So yeah I will get them done eventually…. Life is just being a bugger right now and my brain is only letting me get out drabbles and 1k word oneshots. But I will take what I can get. At least I am still writing right?

16. What are your writing strengths?

I’ve been told its characterization, blending angst and fluff, story/setting creation, and conveying emotions/toying with reader and character emotions.

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

Aside from getting past brain blocks to actually write I struggle with dialogue at times and overthinking certain scene sand details that get me stuck when they honestly probably don’t even matter to the reader or to the grand scheme of the story.

18. What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic?

Nope, I don’t do it. I don’t speak any other languages so I don’t trust myself to do it correctly. I might imply another language is being used. “Duke showed off his mastery of the Japanese language again by….” But beyond that, naw. I write in English.

19. What was the first fandom you wrote for?

First ever was Lord of the Rings when I was like 8 or 9. Wrote for dozes on fandoms (mostly animes) when I was in college. A year ago I got back into it after a 12 year break and its been mostly Haven ever since!

20. What's your favourite fic you've written?

Hmm. Hard one. I don’t have a lot to choose from yet… so I kinda feel like Im lacking anything worth being overly proud of yet. I really like Love Lost and Love Found because of the premise and emotions and all… and I am proud of any of my Three Stars fics – This is My Christmas Wish, and Making a House Into A home- because I had to create a name for that pairing as nothing existed for Duke, Nathan, Dwight. It’s kinda nice to help bring a great rare pair to the fandom.

Tagging, with no pressure- @lawlessferalgay @divingintohope @lovingmoose @mythoughtsaretroubled

@ anyone else who wants to do this and hasn’t been tagged.

info taken from the research conducted by @/tower-of-deceit, all recorded responses were and remain anonymous. just some psychoanalysis of the fandom’s opinion on c!dream, since i ran through all the answers to one specific question and picked up some interesting patterns. (link to original post) /dsmp /rp

people who don't like c!dream have said these things about c!dream enthusiasts in the survey (enthusiasts being apologists, sympathizers, and enjoyers, they didn't use these terms but it was easy to sort either way). picked up some rough stats and intriguing responses based on reading every single entry on the sheet.

90% "enjoyers are ok, apologists aren't"

3% "enjoyers are ok, sympathizers and apologists aren't"

2% "don't care, to each their own"

2% "i don't understand c!dream sympathizers"

2% "i like sympathizers' analyses"

1% "apologists are ok"

that three percent interestingly enough seems to display a rather large bias.“He was always a villain … claiming that characters like Wilbur and Tommy made him a villain … It's these people I can't stand.” "the second you say he's misunderstood or the real victim or that wilbur...is the real manipulator..." this is very biased and not based on objective evidence. c!wil's not ‘the real manipulator’ whatever that is, but he did manipulate c!dream into becoming a villain, (courtesy of cc!wilbur being a genius writer and actor) setting the trend for how c!dream would act later on. another person said. "people who excuse his actions or try to say that the others ‘turned him into’ a villain are where it crosses a line." there is evidence c!dream was in fact turned into a villain. he was a misunderstood good guy shifting towards morally grey up until the 16th when he snapped full villain mode. this fall from grace was in no way his own choice, and he was villainized for long beforehand.

it is interesting to me that people deny proof because they feel such strong negative emotion against this character. "i respect their opinions as long as they dont sympathize w him or think he's morally correct." is another one of the clear anti-sympathizer anti-apologist ones. "why though? he has no backstory ... he wants power and complete control and there are no established plot reasons for him to want [one big happy family]." "theres a lot of mystery surrounding him and i can see how it would be fun to theorize abt him and stuff. but i dont trust sympathizers lol" people are strongly misinformed about c!dream, either unintentionally or intentionally, which i find interesting.

“if you unironically call yourself a dream apologist / sympathiser??? get well soon” "if you like him bc u think he can be redeemed/he's not a bad person ... get help" “that’s fine lol but also are you okay ?? do u need someone to talk to ???? is everything alright ????” honestly, all of the people saying c!dream sympathizers need help reminds me of jawsh’s statement that all stans are mentally ill. that’s an (insensitive) insult, not an argument.

"I strongly encourage those who like him to get some therapy" i actually was at my therapist's yesterday and she said liking fictional characters is a-ok. your point?

most of the people who are confused honestly just don't seem to have the information about the character's actual arc, which i think says a lot about the fandom. "i am confused, he's almost irredeemably evil" "I don’t really know why you’d like c!Dream ... he’s not exactly meant to be super sympathetic" "I’m confused by people who see him as sympathetic. He’s only ever done people wrong and doesn’t regret any of it." “I wish they had more of his reasoning to base their sympathy on” “I simply dislike the debates on morality, whos good or bad, where the question often is ‘is dream really that bad?’ Or ‘could there be a way he is justified in this?’ and the sympathy to him where he clearly shouldnt get any.” “????? I would say its because hes a jerk but people who really like him dont really seem to think of him as a jerk so im really not sure” so many people have no idea about the actual character or the enthusiasts’ reasoning, it’s honestly kind of sad.

reponses like “they’re wrong” and “they’re crazy” genuinely cracked me up the first time i read them, sure buddy-

either way, you’re allowed to feel uncomfortable around or dislike c!dream. it’s just the harassment c!dream enthusiasts face (proven by this research) and well, it does grind my gears a little when well-written characters get misunderstood, i must admit.

either way, have a nice day,

- ruby

((there are some pictures in the fic, and I tried to equally distribute them but it didnt really work so theyre like kinda randomly scattered haha))

It’s tonight. It’s tonight. It’s tonight.

That was the sole thought running through my head as my maids helped me get ready for the welcome ball. I was happy that I at least knew some ladies. I smiled, remembering the nice breakfast I had with Aiko, Cal, Debbie, Devon, Emma, Izzy, Maddie, and Theia. They were all wonderful ladies and I was happy that I had their company tonight.

“Lady Aricia, you can look now,” one of my maids said, and I opened my eyes, looking at my reflection in the mirror, not recognizing the girl that was staring back. My hair was let down, with a deconstructed brain running in it. My eyes were done smokey, and I had on a pale pink lip gloss and minimal bronzer. I was in a pale pink dress- more like a gown, and it fit me perfectly and gently brushed the floor. I had on pale pink heels, which made me look taller then I was, and made sure that the dress wasn’t completely trailing on the floor. All in all, I couldn’t believe that the girl in the reflection was me.

I smiled, and hugged the nearest maid, repeating my ‘thank yous’ to her and all the other maids.

“It wasn’t a problem, Lady Aricia” they said, grinning at me

“Thank you so much,” I said, hugging them all again once more. They assured me that it wasn’t a problem, and then quickly ushered me out of my room.

I smiled at their behaviour, and started slowly walking down the stairs and to the ballroom, making sure not to trip on the hem of my dress.

The last thing I needed tonight was to make an utter fool of myself.

I walked into the ballroom, and was in awe. It was decorated beautifully, with tables upon tables of refreshments, and people in fancy dresses and suits, mingling around.

I saw Cal and the other girls speaking in a circle, so I decided to go and join them. Right as I walked up, they all smiled at me.

“Girls, you all look so wonderful in your pretty dresses!” Cal exclaimed, looking beautiful herself in a magenta mermaid style gown.

“Aw, thank you Cal! You look beautiful as well!” Maddie said, smoothing down the skirt of her mid length black dress with a gold bodice.

I nodded, “You all look beautiful!” I exclaimed, with a smile.

They all thanked me, and Izzy took her chance to speak, “Thanks Cal and Aricia! I agree, you all look so gorgeous!” she said, looking very happy to be here in her red one shoulder gown.

“Thank you so much, Cal! You look wonderful as well! You all look perfect!” Debbie said, smiling in her light pink to dark pink ombre dress.

Aiko grinned, “Thank you! Everyone looks so beautiful tonight!” she exclaimed.

Cal smiled, “So, how’s everyone feeling after the eliminations?” she asked

I smiled, “I’m happy I’m still here! I was so nervous during my interview, though”

Madelyn shrugged, “Well, I’m relieved that I’m still here, but I’m still a tad bit nervous”

Izzy nodded, “I am so relieved! I thought I was going home!” she said, with a laugh, lightening the mood.

Cal smiled, “Aww you girls, I would lay down my life before I let you get sent home. I don’t know what I’d do without you all, you have all made me feel so safe!”

We all gushed over her compliment, and agreed that no matter what, we would stick together.

“Hey, Isabella,” Madelyn started, looking towards Izzy, “didn’t Dom say he enjoyed your conversation?”

Izzy nodded, “He said something like that, yes! But we kind of had a difficult talk”

Cal frowned, “About your mother? I’ve heard how she is, Izzy”

Izzy groaned, “Oh gosh, you heard about her as well,” she said, bringing a hand up to her forehead.

“Oh no, what’s the matter with your mother?” Madelyn asked breathlessly, suddenly getting pale. I was about to ask her what the matter was, but I refrained from doing so, not wanting to put her into a position she didn’t want to be in.

Izzy frowned, “She doesn’t like the royals and organizes demonstrations against them and all that. I hope I convinced Dom that I don’t share her opinion!”

Madelyn sighed, “Oh, I see”

Izzy looked at Maddie worried, “Madelyn, are you alright? Would you like something to drink?”

Madelyn shook her head, “Oh, no, no. I’m fine! I was just worried for you, that’s all”

Izzy gave Madelyn a reassuring smile, “Don’t worry, I am fine!”

“I heard she reacted badly to you being selected, Izzy. I’m surprised it wasn’t on the news.” Cal said, and turned to look from Izzy to Madelyn, “Mads, you don’t seem fine, what’s- oh your mother…”

Madelyn frowned, “Yeah…” she trailed off, not liking the toping of conversation

Debbie frowned, not happy with her friend seeming so sad, “What is it, Mads?” she asked

“I’m so Mads. Debs, her mom is no longer around” Cal said sadly

Madelyn nodded, “Yeah, she passed away when I was 9”

We all hugged her, expressing our condolences, until Cal, Aiko and I decided to grab some drinks.

Suddenly, Cal had an idea, “How about after drinks, we divide and conquer? I want to see if Prince Evan will dance with me”

Madelyn nodded, “Okay, I’m a little nervous to go talk to all of the royals. I may try Alina first, since she seems nice”

I nodded, and had an idea, “Hey Cal, do you need a wingwoman?”

She frowned, “Whats a wingwoman? That sounds fun though, I’ve never had friends or flirted with a boy before but I’ve always admired Prince Evan’s literary nature.”

“A wingwoman is a friend who just goes with you to help you out when you’re flirting with someone!” I explained, laughing a little at the absurdity of the word.

Cal laughed as well, “Alright sounds fun! And Mads, you should try Princess Callie too! Just give her flowers and she’ll love you!”

Madelyn grinned, “Oh yeah! I’ll try that! Ooh, how about we take a polaroid together!” she exclaimed, getting really excited. We all huddled around the camera, and made funny faces as Madelyn snapped the button on her polaroid camera.

Just then, Theia walked up to us with a glass in her hands, trying not to spill her purple drink on her beautiful white dress.

“Have you guys tried this fruit punch? It’s the best” She gushed, chugging down some more.

Izzy laughed, “No I haven’t yet! I should get some though, does anyone else want some?”

Cal shook her head, “No thanks, I’ve already spilt some on myself. This is why you don’t trust a blind girl to get drinks. Thank god Isla made this dress water- well juice proof just in case. And the colour matches me dress!” she added, with a chuckle.

Theia laughed, “Yeah, the colour does match! Do you need any help?” She asked, smiling

Cal shook her head, and Emma complimented her on the functionality of her dress.

“I know! Isla is a god send. Anyways, are you all having fun?” Cal asked

Emma nodded, “Definitely. This ball is… well, incredible!” She said, and we all laughed at her awestricken expression.

Theia agreed, “I’ve never seen something like this before!”

We all nodded, and I felt rather thirsty, so I went over to the drink station, and just then I saw something that made my jaw drop.

No. Way.

There pitchers upon pitchers of drinks, and one pitcher in particular grabbed my attention. I picked it up, and poured its contents into a glass, needing to taste the drink to believe that it was there.

I added caramel sweeteners, just how I had it at home, and took a sip, moaning at the taste of my favourite beverage in the world.

Iced Coffee

I poured some more into my glass, added some more caramel, and walked back to the girls, feeling absolutely elated.

“Guys, have you tried the iced coffee! They had it hidden in the back, but oh my, if you add some caramel sweeteners, its tastes amazing!” I gushed

Izzy laughed, “That sounds like something Debbie would love!”

I grinned, “That’s great! Maybe I’ll take her there when I see her!”

Theia beamed, “Caramel sweeteners? There’s stuff like that! Oh my god!” she exclaimed, as excited as I was.

I nodded, “Yeah, its amazing!”

Just then, Madelyn came back to the group with the iced coffee in her hands, and took a sip.

“Ooh, Aricia, this coffee is good!” she exclaimed, hurriedly drinking some more.

I laughed, “I know right! Slow down, though, we wouldn’t want you to choke!”

Cal frowned at her coffee, “Oh no, I’m going to be up all night now!” she complained, “But… coffee also gives me a boost of confidence. I’m going to ask Prince Dom for a dance! Dancing with a blind girl would be quite the experience!” she said with a laugh

“I’m scared to ask him to dance!” Madelyn exclaimed

Emma smiled, “You both can do it, I’m sure he’d have a great time!”

Cal turned to look at Mads, “I’ll tell him you want to dance after me,” she said, smiling at the look of relief of Madelyn’s face.

“Hey, do you guys mind if I take pictures of you?” Emma asked, smiling. We all nodded, and posed for the pictures, laughing hysterically.

“You may see me with my camera later too, for some candid shots” Emma said, smiling.

Madelyn laughed, “Me too, I can’t let Emma have all the fun!”

Izzy smiled, looking at them with awe, “You are so passionate about photography! That is lovely to see” she said, and I nodded in agreement.

“Thanks Isabella,” Emma said, “I figured while I’m here, I though try to take as many pictures as I could to remember”

“Do you two have any problems with your camera?” Cal asked, “I would love to advance on the technology!”

Emma and Maddie both nodded, and arranged a time with Cal so she could fix their cameras for them.

Emma grinned, “Oh look, Cal! You can ask Dom now, he’s not talking to anyone!”

I nodded, “Yeah! Go for it, Cal! Good luck! You’re going to do great!” I exclaimed, smiling.

Cal smirked, and smoothed over her dress and hair, “Alrighty then, have fun ladies, but not too much fun! This girl is gonna take down a man”

I laughed at Cal’s comment, and we all said bye to her as she walked off towards Dom.

I excused myself, and made my way over towards the drinks station, so I could grab myself some more of that heavenly iced coffee.

I’m going to be up all night now

I shook my head, and reached for the pitcher of iced coffee, but I jerked my hand back when I felt another hand. I turned and looked at the person, who was wearing a beautiful pink dress.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t see you there!” I exclaimed

She shook her head, “Oh no, it’s alright, go ahead! I already had a lot of this glorious thing” she said, laughing as she held up her cup, “I probably have to stop now, cause my nerves will suffer later!”

I laughed, thankfully finding someone who enjoyed iced coffee as much as I do, “It is glorious! And I think I may have had a bit too much myself! Anyways, I’m Aricia, its great to finally properly meet you!” I exclaimed, and extended my hand.

The girl took my hand, and shook it with a smile, “Hi Ari! I’m Debbie! Aren’t we in the same hall?”

I nodded, so that’s where I’ve seen her before!

“Yeah, I think so! I think we’ve seen eachother around but never spoken,” I said, and she nodded, “So, Deb, tell me a bit about yourself!”

“Well, I’m from Sota, and my family has a farm there” she said, with a smile, “Where are you from, Ari?”

“I’m from Lakedon,” I said, smiling at the mention of my home province, “I used to live with my father, but I got kicked out when I entered the selection. Oh well,” I shrugged, “Its probably for the best, though. He didn’t even care about me and I could barely stand him. Anyways, what did you grow on your farm?” I asked

“Oh no! I’m sorry to hear that,” she said, a sympathetic look on her face, “My dad didn’t react well either when he found out that I’m going to apply for the selection,” she sighed, “Parents are complicated” she concluded, and took a small snack from the table.

“About the farm,” she continued, gratefully moving away from the topic of fathers, “we are more focused on milk products but we have vegetables too, such as potatoes, tomatoes, corn, carrots, lettuce… you should come visit us when this is all over!” she exclaimed, talking animatedly.

I nodded, “I’m sorry that happened to you! And of course! I’d love to visit”

Deb smiled, and turned around to see people dancing, “Look, there’s prince Dom! He looks even more handsome tonight, don’t you think?” she giggled, and I laughed along with her

“Yeah, that he does” I laughed, and gazed at the dance floor.

“Hey, Deb, I’m not a great dancer, but do you maybe want to go dance with me?” I asked, with a smile.

She grinned, and we both grabbed eachothers arms and made our way to the dance floor, grinning.

We both went over to the dance floor and waiting for the next song to come on. When the next song turned out to be another slow song, I groaned.

“Are all these songs going to be slow?” I asked, dragging a hand down my face.

Deb giggled, “I’m afraid they will. I wish we could change the rhythm a bit! Something to make us move more!”

Suddenly, the song changed, and something a bit more upbeat begins to play. I look towards the guy who was playing the music, and he shot a wink towards me. I rolled my eyes and turned back to Debbie, “Hey, this is actually danceable!” I exclaimed, and moved along to the rhythm.

Debbie starts moving along with the music as well, and we were both laughing at how terrible our moves were.

“So, have you talked with some of the royals?” she asked, smiling.

I nodded, “Yeah, aside from Dom, I’ve spoken to Percy, but that’s about it!”

She gave me a knowing smile, “Percy! How is he, I haven’t had the pleasure to speak to him yet. I’ve only spoken to Evan and Alina”

I rolled my eyes at the look on her face, “He’s cool. You should talk to him when you can. How are Alina and Evan?” I asked

She smiled, “Alina is the sweetest person on earth! Evan is not a talkative man, but he’s a good guy”

We both continued talking about other trivial things, and we eventually both went our ways. I was getting tired of all the dancing, and my feet started hurting, so I made my way over to one of the large windows, and looked out. I saw the vast expanse of the palace grounds, and I could even see the beach!

“Lady Aricia, would you like to dance?” a voice asked from behind me, and I turned around faster than the speed of sound. When I turned around, the face of Dominic Schreave was staring back at me, his eyes glittering in the light.

“Sure, but I should warn you, I’m not the best dancer,” I said, and he nodded.

“Don’t worry about it, we don’t have to do anything too crazy,” he said, smiling at the relief on my face.

“That’s great, thanks!” I exclaimed, and he nodded, pulling me out to the dance floor.

“So, how have you been enjoying the palace so far?” he asked, starting to move us in a dance. I placed my hands on his to stabilize myself, because as I mentioned earlier, the last thing I needed tonight was to fall while dancing with the Prince of Illea.

I smiled, remembering all my experinces in the palace so far, “Its been nice! The food is wonderful, and I’ve spoken to a lot of the ladies, so I’m in good company,” I grinned, remembering my day with Izzy, and my chat with Percy, “Also, have I told you that its beautiful here!” I exclaimed, smiling at his laugh. It was truly a beautiful laugh, and I found myself thinking that he should use it more often.

“Probably,” he said, with a chuckle, “So, I hear you’ve been seeking company with people other than the other selected,” he accused joking, raising his eyebrow with mockery, his eyes glinting with amusement.

I laughed, “Well your cousin did seek me out and talk to me in the music room”

He smiled, “Yeah? And what did the two of you talk about?”

I shrugged, “Nothing much. We just talked about music, and he helped me out with a piece. Nothing big.” I said nonchalantly, trying to keep the smile off my face.

“Anyways, enough about me,” I continued, trying to get the topic of conversation off of me, “How are you enjoying the selection so far? Do you think you’ve found your future bride and queen?”

He shook his head, “Hmm.. I don’t like to think of it in terms of that. I prefer to just have fun with it as I go”

I nodded with understanding, “Well, that’s a nice way to look at it. I bet it reduces the pressure that you probably- and most likely- have on your shoulders”

He nodded in agreement, looking down at me, “Absolutely it does”

I smiled, changing the topic of conversation to something more lighthearted, “So, any new music that you’ve listened to recently?” I asked

He laughed again, its melodious sounds filling my ears and making me content to just be like this forever. Dancing with Dom, in a ball with my friends and plenty of iced coffee.

Sounds like heaven to me

“Not really,” he said, and I was wondering what we were talking about again.

Oh yeah, I asked him if he liked any new music! Come on Aricia, get your head back in the game!

“Oh, well I’m still loving the classics, so if you finally decide that they aren’t boring,” I said that last part in air quotations, quoting that Dom had told me that he thought classical music was boring during our interview, “then you can hit me up” I finished

He laughed, and agreed, and we both continued swaying around as the songs changed.

“So,” I began, and Dom diverted his attention to me, “Are you enjoying the ball so far?” I asked, and he smiled.

“Absolutely,” he said, and looked me up and down, before his eyes met mines again, “Are you starting to get a hang of this dancing thing?” he asked.

I laughed, the idea of getting used to all this seeming absurd, “Well, not really. I think I’m better at other things rather than dancing,” I smiled, “Have you been dancing since you were a kid?” I asked, and he smiled

“Yeah, just lessons to be able to survive at balls like this” he said, looking around the room.

“That’s nice. Do you like dancing?” I asked, because in all honesty, he seemed like he belonged on the dance floor.

He shook his head, “Nope, not really. But its alright when theres a gorgeous girl in my arms” he added, smirking.

Woah, that escalated quickly.

I laughed at the absurdity of my situation. The heir of Illea was flirting with me?

I shook my head, trying to stop my laugher, and looked at him, “Wow, Dominic, are you trying to impress me with your compliments?” I asked, smirking.

He scoffed, “Obviously. I’ve got to start weeding out girls somehow, so I’ve been trying to figure out which girls are made uncomfortable by my compliments.” He explained, and I nodded.

“I see. Has that been working for you so far?” I asked, smiling.

He shrugged, “Mostly”

I nodded, and asked the question that I have been dreading all night, “That’s good. Have I passed your test?” I asked, slightly nervous for the answer.

He nodded slightly, smiling at my predicament, “I think so” he concluded, and I released a breath that I didn’t know I’d been holding.

I smiled broadly, “Phew! Now I think I can stop worrying about embarrassing myself in front of a prince” I said, laughing.

He nodded, smiling, “Well that’s good”

We both continued dancing, the smiles never leaving our faces. After a few songs, Dom and I both agreed to stop because I, for one, was tired. We both said our goodbyes, and I walked around the ball room, so I could refill my glass with some iced coffee.

Oh boy, I was going to be awake all night

I got to the refreshments station and refilled my glass with the heavenly iced coffee, and I drank it down in one gulp. Just as I was about to grab some more, I saw a tall figure standing by the window that I occupied earlier. His dark hair was slicked back, and even without seeing them, I could imagine his bluegreen eyes twinkling in delight.

I set my glass down, and made my way over to him, trying carefully not to trip on the hem of my gown.

“You’re looking lonely, Mr. Schreave,” I said, and he turned around, smiling, “Care to dance? I’m not the best, but maybe I can give you something to laugh about.” I asked

He nodded, “Yeah, okay, sure,” he said, and we both made our way over to the dance floor, our hands finding their places as we begun dancing.

“How are you enjoying the ball so far?” I asked, slightly preoccupied with my attempts to get into a comfortable position.

He nodded, smiling down at me, “Oh, it’s been great. How about you?”

I grinned, reminiscing on the events of the night, “It’s been wonderful! The iced coffee is heaven! The only problem is the dancing…” I trailed off, slightly embarrassed, by my dancing ability- or lack thereof.

He shook his head, laughing, “You’re not that bad, you know”

I smiled in disbelief, “Well, thanks! I’m just happy that I’m not falling all over you,” I laughed, and watched his eyes light up as he laughed as well.

“Yes, that’s very good,” he said, leading our bodies on the dance floor.

As we were dancing, I remembered something that I wanted to tell Percy, but I hadn’t had the chance to.

“I forgot to tell you that I can play the piece completely now without a problem! Thanks for all your help,” I said, referring to the time we spent together in the music room.

He smiled happily, “That’s great!” he exclaimed, seeming happy that I could finally play the piece completely, “Soon, you’ll be just as good as me.”

I nodded, silently agreeing with his statement, and subconsciously assessing my own ability, wondering if it were possible to be as good as Percy one day.

As I was daydreaming about my possible musical future, I felt Percy’s gaze resting heavily on my face, his head cocked to the side.

I should probably stop daydreaming whilst dancing with princes

“So,” I began, shaking my head to clear the image that was appearing, “are you working on any new pieces as of late?”

He shook his head, “Not really. I don’t have much time for the piano anymore”

I frowned, trying to imagine my life without playing the piano or the guitar. For me, music was just a pastime, but an important one that I couldn’t possibly live without.

“That’s a shame,” I said, understanding Percy’s situation. Sometimes life gets in the way of things we really want, but sometimes life gives us the things we really want, and we should go along with it either way.

He shrugged, and his trademark smirk quickly appeared on his face.

Oh great

“Yeah, but now I have more time to spend with gorgeous girls,” he said almost seriously, though I could detect the undercurrents of humour in his voice.

I rolled my eyes and laughed, “Wow, only you, Mr. Schreave, can pull compliments out of nowhere and still make them work”

He grinned bashfully, happy that I noticed his secret ability, “It’s a skill,” he drawled, chuckling at the end.

I laughed, realizing that nobody could work their words as well as Perseus Jackson Schreave ((ooc; currently dying of laughter because of that middle name hahah xD))

“What else do you like?” I asked, trying to gauge the full personality of the boy I was dancing with.

He shrugged, “I don’t know. I mean my dream is to travel the world,” he said, nonchalantly.

I made eye contact with him, and relished in how his facial expression changed when he was talking about traveling. His features softened, and his eyes seemed to glimmer even more, with unspoken adventures hidden behind them.

“I’ve always wanted to do that as well,” I said, “I really want to visit Europe! It seems like such a beautiful place!”

He nodded, “Yeah… it is. Or the parts I’ve been to, at least. But there re so many places I’ve never been to.” He said, almost remorsefully, as if he felt bad that he hadn’t gone to those places yet.

I nodded in agreement, “Where have you been to in Europe? And the world is so massive, there are many places that the entirety of humankind haven’t laid their eyes on yet. I hope we can see them all one day…” I trailed off, imagining a future where I could travel the world, and see all the sights. Then I imagined a future where instead of going to all of those places alone, a smiling Percy Schreave accompanied me everywhere. Showing me everything from the 7 wonders of the world, to the wonders of sushi.

I shook my head, trying to erase that image from my head, and focus on the task at hand. In my desperate attempt to clear my head of images from the future, I almost missed Percy’s next comment.

“I’ve mostly been to the capitals of European countries. London, Paris, Moscow, etc.” he said, smiling at the old memories that he must have, stored inside the inner corners of his mind.

I smiled, “That’s cool! I haven’t even left Illea yet!” I exclaimed, and the smile slowly slipped off my face as I remembered why. Flashbacks from my past flashed before my eyes, from my parents awful split, to my father not caring about me at all.

That’s why I want to get away, I realized, as I swayed in Percy’s arms, To get away from my past

I looked up at Percy again, just in time to see him shrug, “Most Illeans never leave the country,” he said, a mildly concerned look on his face. If he noticed my slip into the past, he never brought it up. During the remainder of our time dancing, we talked about small things, resulting in me laughing so much that I forgot why I was sad in the first place.

Eventually, my feet started throbbing, and my iced coffee withdrawal symptoms kicked in, so Percy and I concluded our dancing, and went our separate ways. After I finished talking to Percy, I started to walk towards the refreshments, but I realized that I didn’t need iced coffee to clear my head and that I just needed fresh air. I silently stepped out of the ballroom, and aimlessly wandered the halls, until I remembered the balcony I discovered on my adventure with Izzy. I walked around a bit more, until I found the balcony, but something was different about it today. Instead of it being empty, there was a dark-skinned girl standing there, hunched over the railing.

“Hello?” I called out, approaching the girl cautiously, as to not disturb her.

The girl whipped her head around, and looking at the face, I realized she was Lady Ruby.

“Oh, hello Lady Aricia,” She said, tucking a lock of hair behind her.

I walked up beside Ruby, leaning on the railing and letting the wind whip through my hair.

“hello Lady Ruby. What are you doing out here?” I asked, gazing at the moon

“Ohh, I just needed a break, giving my body some time to sober down a bit, but I don’t know if that’ll work,” she said, holding up a bottle of alcohol.

I nodded in understanding, “Ahh, I see. The first step of sobering up is probably to get rid of the alcohol” I laughed, and she nodded.

“Yep, that’s why I need to finish this,” she said, and raised the bottle to her lips, gulping down the whole thing in one go, and placed it on the railing, “So, why did you leave that electrifying party, my dear?” she asked, turning to look at me

I shrugged, “Well, my feet started hurting from all the dancing, and I had to run from my emotions, as usual, but mostly I wanted to stop hearing that music”

She laughed a little, “Its not that bad,” she retorted

I looked at her incredulously, “Well, when you’ve been dancing and listening to it all night, it gets a bit repetitive”

She nodded, “Touché. So, any interesting thoughts about our dear prince so far?” she asked

Which one, I wanted to ask, but I shut my mouth.

“He’s alright. He’s nice and has a good taste in music, except he doesn’t like classical. But, I can probably convince him that classical is wonderful by the end of the selection. How about you my dear?” I asked, winking at the use of Ruby’s earlier nickname. She rolled her eyes at my jab, and responded.

“He seems very nice indeed, but I am not so confident about my time here as you are,” she said sadly.

I frowned, “Why?” I asked. The girl standing beside me right now, even though I barely knew her, seemed interesting.

She shook her head, “Apparently I’m very boring. I talked to Alina earlier and she mentioned that I shouldn’t really worry about that but I don’t think he seems very interested, in me atleast,” she sighed, and looked down at her glass, “Gosh, I wished I had more of that sweet liquor,” she sighed again, seeming lonelier by the minute, “I don’t even know why I am telling you this,” she said, slightly shaking her head.

I shook my head vehemently, “hey hey hey,” I said, placing a hand on her shoulder, feeling immense sympathy for a girl I barely knew, “If you need someone to talk to, I’m here. You should never hold your true emotions inside because they will destroy you”

She looked directly at me and gave me a small smile, “Thanks, that’s very kind of you. I am just so used to barely talking to anyone ever and never even talking about my feelings and thoughts, that it feels so wrong speaking up about anything now”

I gave her a small sympathetic smile, “Yeah, it’ll take some time, but it’ll all work out at the end” she smiled at that, and the look in her eyes made me change the subject, “So, how was your life back home? Where are you from?” I asked, realizing that I didn’t even remember the province that she is from.

“I am from a very small town in Dakota, with a tiny gymnastic club and ballet school which partially represented my entire social contact I received until now. What else is there to say?” she trailed off, looking into the sky wistfully as she thought about her past, “Well my parents are wealthy jewellers, I was born a 4 and trained to become a 2 and am a only child”

I smiled softly, “Oh, that sounds cool. Did you like your life in Dakota?”

She frowned slightly, “It mostly sucked, if it didn’t I wouldn’t have been so desperate to get away. Most people I know aren’t very nice, including my parents”

I frowned back, understanding the part about the parents, “Although that sucks, at least your parents were in your life. My mom cheated on my dad with his best friend and ran away with him when I was young, and after that my dad became a coldhearted man who didn’t care about what I did. So that’s why I tried my hardest to get out of there. If I wasn’t selected, then Id be off to university in the fall, and doing some stuff there just to get away from home,” I concluded, remembering the life that may await me after the selection.

She grimaced, “So apparently both of us have awful parents,” she laughed, equally bitter to her smile, “You know, I came here to live life at its fullest but now that I tasted it, fear is consuming me. I always worry that I don’t have enough time left to experience everything I want to do. And there is always my mothers threat in the back of my mind,” she said, her voice slowly getting softer as her sentence concluded.

I shook my head, “well you are still young. You have your whole life, probably a good 100 years left, and 100 years is a long time,” I looked to her, and seeing the sullen expression on her face made me remember what she had said, “What do you mean, threat?” I asked, concerned for the broken girl standing beside me.

“If I don’t find a husband, I wont e able to go back home ever again. And that would mean my career would be over as well,” she sighed, shaking her head, “But at the moment, I try not to think about it”

I gasped in shock, “Oh god, that’s serious! It’s the same for me, actually. My dad found out that I entered, and I got kicked out of my house…” I trailed, then I thought of an idea, “hey, maybe if the selection doesn’t work out for either of us, we can both be roommates!” I exclaimed, and Ruby’s face brightened.

“We should totally do that,” she giggled, “maybe in a nice little down at the sea so I can finally learn how to surf. It could also be near the big loud city of Angeles, so we could wander through the streets at night, hearing music pulsing around every corner,” she said, dreamily staring at the moon.

I smiled, liking the sound of that, “That’d be great,” I said softly, staring at the soft waves lapping the beach.

“So, have you got any exciting plans for the time you are still here?” she asked, slowly turning her attention from the night sky to me

I sighed, “well, not really. I just want to enjoy all the experiences, and hope that everything works out well. You?”

She shook her head, “I’ll just enjoy making my own choices and trying not to think about how stupid they are,” she said, giggling slightly at something she thought.

I laughed at her attitude, “I agree! You should let loose and have fun,” I said, smiling

She laughed, “I’m trying very hard, ok? My next goal is actually to finally taste some chocolate cake!” she exclaimed

“Ah, we should go to the kitchen one day and try the cake!” I exclaimed, laughing along with Ruby.

She laughed harder when she heard my laughter, “We definitely should. I need someone to protect me so I wont die of a sugar overdose!” she yelled, bending over and laughing even harder. I laughed along with her, not caring if people could hear our laughter from inside the ball.

“Same, Ruby, same!” I said, trying unsuccessfully to stop my laughter.

“We’ll probably die together, just like Romeo and Juliet,” she said, her laughter reducing to a mere chuckle.

I shook my head, grinning at her Shakespearean reference, “Wow Ruby, very pessimistic,” I chuckled, and she laughed as well, “Is there anything that you want to do with your life?” I asked, and she sighed.

“To fall in love? I would also love to finally make friends. I don’t know if I am good at that, and if I’ll be able to put my trust into people, but I really want to try that. And you, Aricia?” she asked

I smiled, “That’s wonderful, but when the right person comes along, you’ll know to trust them. I also want to fall in love with someone who loves me back, and didn’t just settle for me because they couldn’t get someone else, you know?” I asked, hoping she understood, “My dad chose himself over me, my mom chose my dads best friend over our family, so I want someone to choose me first instead of pushing me aside for something or someone else,” I sighed, thinking about my past.

Ruby nodded, “That’s very understandable, Aricia. I am certain that there is a person out there who will choose you, no matter what. And I really hope you will find this person very soon,” she said, smiling softly.

I grinned, “Thanks, Ruby. I wish the same for you as well”

She nodded, thanking me, then shivered slightly, “Shall we go back? Its getting a bit chilly out here,” she said, looking at me.

I nodded, “Sure!”

With that, we both walked inside to the ballroom, and went our separate ways, and as I walked around to grab my long-awaited drink of iced coffee, I realized that Ruby and I could have a wonderful friendship over the horizon.

As I consumed my iced coffee, I spoke to Isabella, both of us talking about trivial things before she retired for the night. I finished drinking my iced coffee as I looked around the ballroom, admiring the beautiful decorations, and everyone dancing around. I stood there, and thought about all the wonderful things that had happened tonight. As I placed my glass on a tray and walked out of the ballroom to head to my room, the thoughts of this wonderful night never ceased to stop playing in my mind.
