beauty & the beast montage
One moment, your character was minding their own business, and the next? Perhaps they opened the wrong door, appeared out of nowhere, or maybe, in a decidedly rare occurrence, they were actually escorted. The choice is yours. Either way, they seem to have found themselves at a formal party.
Spread out before them is a large ballroom. The decorations look like something from a fairy tale; high ceilings supported by stone pillars, walls adorned with gold trimmings and white silk curtains, and a high balcony overlooking an ornate marble dance floor. To the far end, a special stage has been set up, where a small orchestra fills the room with classical waltzes. Overhead, a large crystal chandelier illuminates everything with droplets of rainbow light.
To the sides and on the balcony small clusters of people make leisurely conversation and sip champagne. Several busboys carrying silver trays can be seen taking and delivering drink orders, regardless of age. Several couples choose instead to dance; the most graceful tend towards the middle, while the more inexperienced do their best to stay in the places they will be the most unobtrusive.
Should your character choose to go outside, they will be met with clear, starlit skies, a cool breeze, and a lavish rose garden. Several small tables are set up, lit by candles, where waiters take orders for a full-course dinner. Some of course, choose instead to gather near the ever-present Cod Fountain. Several pieces of strange currency can be seen at the bottom of the fountain; it seems that it's a popular place to wish for happiness.
THE RULES:
-Your characters' clothing with be replaced with formal wear, though the degree of formality is entirely up to you.
-Don't go having epic duels and destroying the building and what have you.
-If you please, you can use NPCs, but you will have to write them yourself.
-Standard "DON'T BE DOUCHEBAGS TO OTHER PLAYERS" disclaimers apply.
-????
-PROFIT!

Re: At the side, sipping champagne
"Little love? Little love? This little love you're talking about did not happen overnight, thank you! I was with him for a year with my brother, and then with other people: we traveled all over our world, saw so many things! But through it all, Aang was the person he was meant to be. He went around trying to solve people's problems, and he would do anything he could to make the world a better place. And the thing is...when he looked at me...he sees me, loves me and everything. He's...so amazing. I love him."
She smiled to herself. "Yes. I really do."
Re: At the side, sipping champagne
Alright. Katara may have gushed, but Nura...Nura swoons. "Oh~, he sounds absolutely stellar," she resorts to her 31st century slang vocabulary. It sounds playful and gushy all the same. It also makes her sound somewhat like a teeny-bopper. But she goes with it.
"I'd love to meet your Aang sometime. And for you to meet my Querl." She takes another sip of champagne and then smiles cheerfully. She raises her glass. "To us: fierce girls who met the men of our dreams and then some."
Re: At the side, sipping champagne
Katara didn't mind the word-she also didn't know what it meant, but she figured it was something like awesome, so she went with it. "He's one of a kind, and even saying that doesn't really do him justice. But I better stop myself there: if I don't, I'll be talking about him all night, trust me!"
Katara nodded, and clinked glasses with Nura. "You better believe it!" She took a sip, then put her drink down. "That's enough for me. Anymore and I won't be able to walk out of here without falling all over myself!"
