Folen smiled, "Perhaps it's you then, if you're so sure." 

He glanced around the courtyard. "There are a lot more people here than I realized."

"None of the right ones." 

14 minutes ago, Hawks said:

Asher nods "ah the worlds hardest question" she says amused.

-

"Have any caprisun?"

"Exactly," Gail sighed. "I'm leaning towards the potatoes with cheese and bacon." 

-

"Right over there."

"How coincidental!" exclaimed Bacon. "So did I!" He pumped Asher's hand vigorously. "I am Bacon the Bard, Narrator Extraordinaire!"

"Lady Bug!" exclaimed Bacon. "Glad to see you are still alive and haven't been eaten by withergeists! Er, you weren't eaten by withergeists, were you?"

Bacon scratched his ear, feeling vaguely discomfited. It felt almost as if someone was speaking blatant untruths somewhere...

Lady Bug smiled. "No, I wasn't. Would you care to dance? For old time's sake?"

He smiled.

Uh . . . sure. For me. You can have the alcohol this time.

-

She did indeed.

-

She smiled and nodded. I do.

-

"I'm sure more are coming."

Two more unspecified people showed up.

"No, aw, come on," she whined. 

-

Bat nodded. "So, uh... could you teach me?" 

-

"Ah, but they're not the right ones."

Taeidin butts in with and handful of mushrooms. 

"Why would you want to have cake?"

She waves and walks away grabbing one.

18 minutes ago, Hawks said:

"Dang okay. Well, for the record I'm not plotting a thing!"

2 minutes ago, epl2 said:

"Why would you want to have cake?" 

"Because I happen to particularly like cake, why else?"

[Through The Living Glass She/They]

6 minutes ago, Mag said:

"Ah, well, my goal is to eat as much cake as possible."

"Alright."

He summoned a cake.

3 minutes ago, Bird Furious said:

"No, aw, come on," she whined. 

-

Bat nodded. "So, uh... could you teach me?" 

-

"Ah, but they're not the right ones." 

He smiled. Nah.

-

She laughed and led him over to the dance floor.

You've really never danced before? Not judging or anything, she said with a smile.

-

"Who are you looking for specifically?"

Just now, Mag said:

"Dang okay. Well, for the record I'm not plotting a thing!"

"Because I happen to particularly like cake, why else?"

"That's a good reason. Why aren't you plotting?"

[Bird Furious she/her/un/important]

2 minutes ago, Hawks said:

she hums "I'd probavly get yogurt."

-

She waves and walks away grabbing one.

"I'll stick with potatoes. I don't like yogurt." 

-

Smbol waved goodbye.

"Who are you looking for specifically?"

Beosta whined at him. Then she broke away and sprinted for the drinks. 

-

No... not really. He blushed. 

-

She shrugged casually. "I don't know. Someone interesting, I suppose." 

[Immortal Platypus]

Platypus was not at the party. This should be considered a good thing. Neither was Hacob, oddly enough. He'd usually come to things like that, if just to annoy people. Quite strange.

 

- About 150 pages ago - 

Platypus walked around, taking a break outside. His idea for the emulsifier seemed to work, but it wasn't quite right. He had managed to combine a few, but they weren't stable. They'd quickly broken apart. Still, it was progress. Perhaps... perhaps he simply needed to be like the material. He could change. He didn't have enough pure Luxite to make Light, so it was time for Dark experiments. First, he would need to leave behind something in case it went wrong. He didn't like being an Ennuller, and he'd never tried being a Withergeist, so if something was wrong... that'd be bad. Eof... yes, Eof would work. He would drop it off with Eof.

"fair" she walks to the table grabs gail her food and some yogurt for herself before returning "here"

[Mags she/they]

3 minutes ago, Through The Living Glass said:

"Alright."

He summoned a cake.

"Yay!! What kind is it?!"

2 minutes ago, epl2 said:

"That's a good reason. Why aren't you plotting?"

"Not smart enough," Folen replied as he cut himself a slice of cake. "Plus I know it would probably fail."

2 minutes ago, Bird Furious said:

"Exactly," Symbol sighed. 

4 minutes ago, Through The Living Glass said:

"Something tells me you ought to take your own advice and try making some friends."

He sprinted after her and wrapped his arms around her waist.

He towed her backwards.

-

She smiled and held out her arms.

Give me your hands.

-

"I suppose I don't cut it, do I?"

He took a sip of the pineapple juice.

"Mm. This is good."

1 minute ago, Mag said:

"Yay!! What kind is it?!"

"Chocolate."

"Something tells me you ought to take your own advice and try making some friends."

"But how are you supposed to know what to do next?" 

Confusion spreads over Taeidin's face.

"Oooo lovely! My favorite is red velvet, but this is just as good."

Folen frowned. "I don't, I'm a little too simple for that sort of thing."

[Through The Living Glass She/They]

1 minute ago, Mag said:

"Oooo lovely! My favorite is red velvet, but this is just as good."

The cake became red velvet.

"Red velvet is just red chocolate, is it not?"

"But..."

Taeidin scrunches his face up, trying to understand.

"Red velvet is just red chocolate, is it not?"

Taeidin turns to them. 

"It also has vinegar and buttermilk added to give it a unique flavor."

"Thanks," Gail said. She moved over to an armchair and sat down in it. Qodi hopped off to who knew where.

19 minutes ago, Mag said:

"Something tells me you ought to take your own advice and try making some friends."

"Friends," she scoffed. "I don't need friends. I have plenty of aquaintences."

He did so.

"Oh, you're fine. But you're not plotting."

Asher sat in a chair infront of her.

Atlas wandered looking for a younger looking person to talk to.

-

"Oh, you're fine. But you're not plotting." 

No! Not again! he laughed.

-

She put one of his hands on her waist, then put one of hers on his shoulder.

Then she started stepping from side to side to the beat of the music.

There.

-

He shrugged.

"I guess not."

Hearing the screaming, Taeidin rushes over. 

"What," he said, "is a cherry cola?"

He was nowhere to be found.
