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.

"Well good luck with that one. You'll need it." Not like it's someone else's responsibility to deal with her self-esteem issues, though.

"Ah it's cool, I always enjoyed a good challenge," he teased with a warm smile.

"Tho, if that's how ya like it, it wouldn't be fair of me to tell you otherwise. I jus' think ya could use a little more confidence. You're really a nice gal. Pretty, strong, warm and nice to be around. Don' you go downplayin' yerself yeah?"

"I know, I know... It's just not always the easiest advice to follow."

He smiled and nodded, "Specially if you've been tellin' yerself that for years. But hey," He lifted her chin gently to look at her, eyes locked on hers. "I'm here to tell ya otherwise. Jus' you know, lemme know if I'm ever crossin' that line yeah?" he smiled warmly at her.

She blushed again. The only one who had ever touched her quite like that was Athrun... she didn't know how to feel about it. "Mm. If you ever get on my nerves too much, I'll say something."

"Deal then," he laughed lightly before letting go, putting one step between them. She seemed apprehensive, albeit sensitive, and he wouldn't want to make her feel more uncomfortable.

Instead, he gave a polite bow, holding her hand gently and kissing the back of it with a gentle peck before standing straight.

"It was an honor to have you by my side for the dance." He gave her a playful wink and a smile.

Hand kissing is a little more comfortable for her, the awkwardness melting away. It was nice and formal in her mind. "I had fun out there... glad I ran into you here."

"Pleasure was all mine," he added with a smile. "I'm really glad you could enjoy yourself, I'm sure that was the purpose of this party."

"Tho, I have to say, I enjoyed myself a lot too."
