WEEK THREE SCENARIO

[potatomance]

ᯓ⭐ WEEK THREE SCENARIO

Today, you will find those signs from last week all over the castle, big red arrows, bright blinking arrows, bold black arrows, all leading you down a corridor to That Golden Door Again.

And there's the sign!

ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK (10 Points per Scenario Completion)

Should you choose to enter, you'll find yourself in the role of a fairy-tale character! All of the classics, maybe some you've never heard before, but it's the same as before. Sort of. You're now in an outfit befitting of your character, the NPCs still have cursed Riri Voices, and some of you may be... well, stuck in some predicaments! Some of you might even have changed forms entirely!

So why not help your homies out? Why not give them a Happily Ever After?

Because you still can't olly out until you get through a scenario, even if that means waiting for someone to kiss you. :)

Once you've achieved a scenario, thinking of leaving the setting entirely will get you back in the castle.

Among the list of scenarios are the following, though players are welcome to also come up with their own:

- Attend The Ball with someone
- Safely make it to Grandmother's House
- Escape the Witch's Candy House
- Free Rapunzel from her tower
- Kiss the sleeping princess
- Kiss the frog
- Just Fucking Kiss
- Perform an underwater musical! (You can breathe, it's fine)
- Conspire to poison someone!
- Save someone from being poisoned!
- Have a dramatic sword fight!
- Do a knightly declaration of love!

And so on.

You can act out the scenarios pertaining to your roles or you know what, maybe Red Riding Hood was evil all along and the Fairy Godmother decided to do a dramatic sword fight, we're not here to judge.

Well! I've never seen such a beautiful princess in my kingdom. You must be a stranger from a far-off land.

[At the ball, surprisingly extravagant and luxurious, Prince Charming Manuela waits to meet no small number of Riri-voiced suitors, all vying for her hand in marriage. Her emerald green and white royal finery matches the ballroom decor. She bows to the complete stranger and offers her hand.]

Frankly, you'd put any princess I played during my Opera career to shame.

[bewrightback]

You really think so? I- I didn't think I had such a knack for it!

[He rubs at his head sheepishly. It's high praise, as he can imagine Manuela playing many a lovely princess, especially witnessing her owning her current princely role.

(It may not be my thing, but it's nice to know I can pull it off. Oh wait, I should get into character.)

With that, Phoenix daintily reaches his hand over to accept hers.]

Nice to meet you. Charmed, even. Where I come from and all that's not important. Being here right now, that's what matters.

[alcoheal]

[She's played opposite many princes before, but she's never had to take on the role for herself. When she tries, it comets naturally: All she has to do is think about tropes and actions she might find charming in a story. Besides, in this situation, she doesn't have to worry about coming on too strong...probably.]

By the end of the night, fair princess... I will learn all your secrets.

[She bows with a royal flourish, takes his hand and... plants a kiss on the back of it. This may be the cuddle impulses taking over more than the scenario role itself, but either way, it both scratches the itch and tells more of the story. Still bent, she raises her gaze to him.]

Do you dance?

[bewrightback]

[Phoenix tries to take on a regal stance as she kisses his hand, his cheeks coloring lightly. She really is putting on the charm! He answers her first statement with just a mysterious smile, as if daring to unveil his tapestry of secrets.

(She doesn't know that I'm really just a commoner. She can't know!)]

Of course. As a princess, I... know all about dancing and all the steps involved, and I can't wait to do it! [Phoenix struggles to remember the last time he did any kind of dancing...]

[alcoheal]

[He's really getting into this... I'm impressed. Given his strong personality, maybe Manuela shouldn't be too surprised.]

Then I'd like to ask you for this dance, Princess. I'll take the lead.

[Still gracefully holding his hand with just the tips of her fingers, Manuela steps back toward to dance floor where the dozen dancing Riris have parted for them. It's easily the confident swagger of a charming price as much as it's a reassurance that she can manage the dance just fine on her own.]

I must hear all about you.

[bewrightback]

[He is Trying!! An attempt is being made! At least one thing he shares in common with his character is actually being clueless about attending a ball. And in feeling utterly charmed!

His smile turns a little nervous as she leads him to the dance floor, and he gives a soft chuckle at her question.]

What is there to say? My favorite color is blue, and I... I've been looking forward to this ball quite a bit! It took a lot to get here.

[alcoheal]

Did it now? What sorts of challenges did you face on your journey to the ball?

[She pulls him into closed position, so they're face-to-face, very close, and able to simply get lost in one another's eyes...or so the script would call for between the prince and her surprise "princess."]

You must have been meant to arrive here. It's destiny. I hope we can dance together all night.

[How hilariously bad is Phoenix at keeping up with the waltz she's leading? That'll change the tone of the line.]

[bewrightback]

It was a bit of an epic journey. I had to... um... solve a troll's riddles to cross a bridge. And then also solve a minotaur's maze? There was a surprising amount of solving on this journey! [A meek laugh.] It felt like the world was keeping me away from this ball tonight. From you.

[He looks into her eyes, trying to deliver that as passionately as he can!

While his feet are doing the exact opposite. He doesn't know what he's doing, and he's likely to have stepped on her foot at least once so far.]

Wait, all night? That- that seems like a long time! [For someone with a midnight curfew!]

[alcoheal]

So you're smart as well as beautiful, is that what I'm hearing?

[At that very moment of princely charm, Phoenix's foot lands on her own. At least the royal costume is completed with boots, not heels... but heels are still doing the stepping. Manuela's voice drops to little more than a stage whisper, still incredibly loud and full-chested.] Would you just - would - step back when I come forward!

Ahem. All night pales in comparison to forever, don't you think?

[bewrightback]

Well I'm not one to brag, but I guess I know a thing or two... Ehehe!

[Just not about dancing. He feels the full force of her stage whisper and sheepishly tries to adjust himself while whispering back to her.] Right! My bad! Um, got it!

True! Very, very true! Those are different spans of time alright! Like... until midnight. That's another span of time. I wonder if this party will even still be going at that point!
