She looks to Brynn. “You aren’t from the rippling court, are you?”
the soldier’s right leg has some horrific scar on it, like a burn or acid. She’s discussing something with the servants, before noticing Paia and giving her a strange look.
"No." brynn is frustrated that she isn't being left alone. Paia backs off, looking away and whistling
*just gonna boink this*
*oops, sorry!*
”knew it. You’re lucky you get to attend one of these things…” she mutters.
the soldier chuckles slightly, turning back to her conversation.
*time to write a big thing!*
"I wouldn't call it lucky. My silly friend waved her magic wand and dragged me here. I couldn't care less for parties, though a warm drink is always nice. But paia missed all of the frills, I suppose."
“Ungrateful…” she mutters beneath her breath.
She grumbles, clearly offended. "I'll have you know I—" Paia interrupts her, startling her from behind. Brinn unclinches her hand from the steak knife she grabbed out of instinct. *the check?*
15
”you’ll have me know what?”
*oooooo* "Nevermind." Some kind of illusion seems to be surrounding the two, most likely connected to an object. If you squint hard enough, you'll see that their fine clothes aren't really there. Paia wears a simple blue dress and brynn is in a tattered military jerkin. The only thing that seems to be real is their masks.
Realizing this, she is a bit confused. “W-… what are you even wearing?”
Brynn elbows Paia and the spell gets stronger, and the two are in their fine clothes once again. They both have different, simultaneous answers to the question "It was her idea" "Clothing!"
“I-… you didn’t even bother to wear any fine clothes…”
the atrium quiets down as a bell chimes throughout the Opera house. Descending down the left staircase of the atrium is an extravagant woman with a pleasant smile on her face. With fair skin, deep blue eyes, one eye lighter than the other, and silvery white hair with streaks of blue, she captures the attention of the entire ball immediately. She wears a dark blue suit sort of outfit over a white vest and a Jabot. She has a blue sash over the vest, with a big bow. Her leggings cut off before her knees, and she wears a heavily layered skirt, longer and with more fabric at the back, all varying shades of blue. Her heels, her suit, and her black and blue top hat are adorned with metal flourishes, the top hat almost having a crown- like appearance. Her left glove is black, and her right glove is white. She descends halfway down the staircase, clearing her throat.
”welcome, People of The Rippling court, and those of the mortal realms…”
*I can't really think of an actionable response for Felix here, but he's definitely here.*
Bookwyrm is also here, and he grabs the mouth of his pseudodragon, forcing it to be quiet.
*I've got a question: if people here have multiple characters, can I introduce my black pudding guy, Glob? He's chaotic neutral, and knows what is and isn't food. He has three categories for things he finds: food, potential food, and friends. Also, he speaks simply.*

"I can explain!" paia whisper-shouts. "We didn't have any on hand, so magic was our best option. But I assure you, I was invited." she pulls out her invitation and shows it to the lady. Sure enough, the letter is addressed to Paia Andrash. *SPOILER DO NOT READ EXCEPT FOR ARCHFEY*
Princess Paia Andrash.

So yeah, the Rippling court is heavily based and inspired by Fontaine from Genshin impact, although I am changing it so that they’re more my characters.

Brynn's defensive manner melts for a bit and gives way to something that might be remorse

Felix is at the Rippling Court ball, carving a mouth hole in his metal mask.
With Archduchess Aurelia wrapping up her speech, the ball is now in full swing. The theatre doors are open and there seems to be some sort of magic show going on, like with card tricks, rabbits out of hats, et cetera, but everything is turned up to the extreme.
Archduchess Aurelia is mingling with the guests, and sees Felix. She kindly waves, and twirls over to him. “Welcome! it is a pleasure to have you here! If I remember correctly, you came from that town in the mortal world? What was it called? Gah, seems it left my mind… no matter, you’re here now! How are you enjoying yourself?” Despite being a supposed archduchess, she is very theatrical, like a stage performer.

He stops filing at the metal helm and looks up at her. "I've never been to a place like this before, so I didn't know what to expect. I didn't have anyone to bring as a plus-one, since my best friend has neither the anatomy for formal wear nor masks. Overall, I'm... well, I'll be completely honest, I don't really know what to do. My family held balls a little like this all the time, but they never let me participate. I don't know the etiquette or understand the art culture. I feel... left out. I don't know, that's probably too much information."
