Enchanted Aquatica---the Prom [WIDE OPEN Y'ALL]

The day had finally arrived for her big event, and Starfire couldn't be happier---or more nervous, actually. She was certainly not an expert on the inner workings of a prom, but it couldn't be too terribly complicated, right? As long as the people could eat, dance, and talk, it should be a reasonable success.

With that in mind, her decorations sprung from her mind into the large dome all around her, transforming a grey Sensorium into a beautiful underwater world, one with clear waters and free from the possibility of a shark attack.

The first change was the scent of the air, shifting into the comforting salty scent of the seas. Then the ground beneath her feet became a hardened sandstone, maintaining the gritty texture while remaining easy to walk upon---except for the smooth dance floor, of course. The grey dome transformed into a flowing bluish-green, rippling all around with fish of all colors passing in the background. Some of the 'sky' faded into a violet tone over the dance floor, lit by glowing circular lights in every color. Suspended in midair, they almost looked like motionless fireflies, though they sometimes swayed in tune with songs.

Tables arose from coral in all colors, rising from the ground and twisting to provide a flattened surface on the very top---rounded ones for guests, and long tables off to the side containing shell-bowls of food. Chairs were large floating clam shells with well cushioned interiors, some large enough to hold two people. More comfortable spongy places to sit were also littered across the area, notably by the large shell-shaped enclosure that was the promised swimming pool. It too was lit by the floating lights, providing what she hoped was a romantic atmosphere.

Finally, the glowing stage above the dance floor couldn't help but attract attention with its chairs. Six royal thrones and one plush chair of all colors directly in the middle rested in the back of the stage, leaving the front open for announcements. Just off to the side of the stage stood the DJ's table, with even that machine painted to match the soft underwater glow of the scenery.

Everything finally seemed pleasing to Starfire. With one last change, dressing herself in the formal attire of the prom, she sent out the signal to everyone and waited. She hoped they would have a wonderful time.

Ronnae nodded, "A lot of my siblings live by that rule... Heck, a lot of the adults in the family do as well... I guess they've seen enough wars to have adjusted to that lifestyle."

"I've been around enough soldiers myself to see plenty of it. Of course, some just use it as an excuse to get drunk and screw around," she said, meaning screw around in its more... literal form.

Which in turn flew right over the girls head of course! Now she was imagining them making mistakes.

She, nevertheless nodded, "After some of the things my soldiers saw during our wars, I can't say I blame them... Specially the ones who joined me for the investigation of Ulduar..." Her voice trailed off almost in a whisper, and she visibly shivered, unbeknownst to herself.

They made plenty of mistakes too, though the Desert Dawn guerrillas and her own troops were generally pretty amazing.

She realized that she'd led this in the direction of something that wasn't making Ronnae too comfortable though, and set a gentle hand on her shoulder. "That was then and there. We're at a party now."

Ronnae blushed and nodded, letting out a small sigh. "Y-yeah, I forgot... it's kind of easy to dwell on the past, specially when war is involved."

"War changes people, but it doesn't have to change us completely. Just have fun here, and don't worry for now." She gave Ronnae's shoulder a pat.

She placed her hand on the one on her shoulder and smiled up at Cagalli as she gave her hand a gentle squeeze, "T-thanks Cagalli. I appreciate it."

[identity profile] allnaturalseed.livejournal.com 2011-08-10 11:18 pm (UTC)(link)
"Any time you need me, I'm here," she replied with an honest smile.

[identity profile] ronnae.livejournal.com 2011-08-10 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Ronnie couldn't help but blush and smile, she was certainly making her feel at ease and that was something she appreciated greatly, specially about friends.

She found herself leaning and relaxing against Cagalli in a comforting manner, "I h-hope you're e-enjoyin' yourself as well."

It was a little unexpected, but she rolled with it. "Eh... well enough."

[identity profile] ronnae.livejournal.com 2011-08-11 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
Ronnae giggled and turned to face her friend, "Aww c'mon I bet you have a lot of suitors~ And you totally deserve to have a lot of fun today jus' like everyon else."

[identity profile] allnaturalseed.livejournal.com 2011-08-11 12:33 am (UTC)(link)
Cagalli shrugged. "I scare most of 'em off, y'know. Just because I'm nice to you doesn't mean I'm all that agreeable."

[identity profile] ronnae.livejournal.com 2011-08-11 12:35 am (UTC)(link)
"I think you are, and a pretty cool person too~" she said happily. "Nice and fun to be around."

[identity profile] allnaturalseed.livejournal.com 2011-08-11 02:20 am (UTC)(link)
"H-hey, I'm not here to get a big head you know," she protested.

[identity profile] ronnae.livejournal.com 2011-08-11 02:28 am (UTC)(link)
Ronnie stuck her tongue out playfully and laughed, "Why not? I think you're amazing, that has to count for something right?"

[identity profile] allnaturalseed.livejournal.com 2011-08-11 02:42 am (UTC)(link)
"Something, yeah..." she trailed off. "I mean... thanks. I guess I should be grateful for people that'll compliment me."

[identity profile] ronnae.livejournal.com 2011-08-11 04:30 am (UTC)(link)
Ronnae tilted her head curiously and looked at her friend concerned. "You alright Cagalli?"

[identity profile] allnaturalseed.livejournal.com 2011-08-11 05:02 am (UTC)(link)
"No, sorry. I need to remember where I am too sometimes." She's fighting the Ohm, not her own nation's crappy politics now.

"It's fine, I was jus'... I was jus' worried."

[identity profile] allnaturalseed.livejournal.com 2011-08-11 03:18 pm (UTC)(link)
"It's really not a big deal. Promise I'll tell someone if it is."

[identity profile] ronnae.livejournal.com 2011-08-11 03:27 pm (UTC)(link)
"Well... if you promise... I guess that's okays then~" she regarded her with a pleasant smile and gave her a light hug before blushing and moving back a little.

[identity profile] allnaturalseed.livejournal.com 2011-08-11 06:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Cagalli hugged Ronnae back. "I've got more people to talk to here than back home too. It'll be fine."

[identity profile] ronnae.livejournal.com 2011-08-11 10:20 pm (UTC)(link)
"I'm glad." Ronnae looked out at the party and smiled, "And at least for today, we can all enjoy ourselves. So if you need anything, just poke me~ I'll be around."

[identity profile] allnaturalseed.livejournal.com 2011-08-12 12:57 am (UTC)(link)
"Yeah, I'll make sure I poke you."
