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.

"A pirate. Or... as close to one as I could get, watching movies in the Media Library. Hopefully they're more or less accurate."

He looked first at her costume, then to the stick of dynamite. Dynamite?

"Oh, you've got to be kidding." He was trying not to smile.

"A pirate? Ohhh, must be a pirate from way back in history on Earth." Whenever Allenby thought the word pirate she pictured a seven-foot Russian with eyebrows the size of Mothra.

As for trying not to smile? Allenby didn't even bother with that. "Whaaaat? I'm supposed to be Alfred Nobel! How are people supposed to tell if I don't carry one of these around?" She casually tossed the dynamite from one hand to the other.

"Yes, back when they had oceangoing pirates, anyway. That was an awfully long time ago."

He laughed. "So, how many people so far got the joke? And does this mean you're officially sprung from the brig?"

"Didn't know they looked like this. It musta been tough to keep this whole getup clean on a boat like that."

If possible, her smile became broader. "Yup! I'm free as a bird, and it looks like just in time as well." She twirled the dynamite. "As for this, I've had to explain it a few times. I guess not many people get the connection."

"You'd think so, wouldn't you? Maybe they only wore this sort of thing on special occasions. Otherwise, the coat might get caught on something. They might even drown."

"Nobel Gundam, Alfred Nobel... what's to explain? Speaking of which, is your Gundam good to go now?"
