Fairy Fanfic Festival

[stringmods]

Who: Everyone signed up here!
Where: It's a secret to everybody.
When: February 14th-16th
Summary: The most terrible romantic day of the year has arrived!
Warnings: Lingerie and fluff

You awaken in a dark room.

...To the sound of giggling.

"Ohmygosh, they're finally awake!" The shrill voice elicits an uncontrollable wince of pain; as the lights flicker on, the wince is liable to evolve into a full-on expression of abject horror. Everything is pink. The bed is pink. The walls are pink. The flower petals are pink. The confetti and streamers are pink. The enormous scented candles strewn about everywhere are pink.

............The tight briefs and/or lingerie that may or may not be on your body in place of your own underwear are pink (You do get to keep your clothing, so this part is optional if you don't want to play it - your characters can wake up in their normal bedclothes or day clothes if you like. However, if your characters do wake up in sexy underwear or their PJs, their normal clothes will be in a nearby dresser.)

Before you have too much time to consider exactly what's going on, the voice sounds again.

"We are going to have so much fun! We just knew the two of you would be perfect together. No connection to the outside world whatsoever! No need to thank us! Now, we'll just be here in the corner and you two can just... oh, you know!"

The fairy blushes and sighs longingly.

"OK! Good luck!"

'The two of you'? What t --

Right about then, you realize someone else is in bed next to you.

[The event has begun! Please refer to this post to see how things will go. If you prefer not to have fairies directly involved, they will very generously allow you a little time ~alone~ if you ask, though they will return. Otherwise, they will be scribbling notes, drawing and narrating your "steamy romance" (romance may not be as steamy as implied). Characters can attack the fairies all they like, but it will have no effect, as they're projecting themselves in with magic while they watch from the safety of their little pixie laptops.

Remember that you control the fairies and what they say. We've created an npc account pixielove and you can find the password here, so have fun! You're free to use the account or not at your discretion.

Additionally, for the 14th to the 15th at night, anyone stuck together will not be able to contact the outside world. Don't worry, the fairies will let everyone know you're safe!]

"No. It all actually happened."

Just be glad she glossed over the fact they got to the other planet in the first place using meteors to teleport.

[dontrunawayfromliving]

"...man. I just had to deal with a giant monster that was gonna eat the world."

[ladieswhodresslikemen]

"...kay, explain how someone let a monster get that big in the first place."

[dontrunawayfromliving]

"He had it built in secret using materials funneled from the Reprisal Squad's missions."

[ladieswhodresslikemen]

"...did you give the guy what for for doing that, too?"

Seriously, guys, don't make monsters.

[dontrunawayfromliving]

Sarah glances to the side.

"...yeah. In the end, he was just looking for a place to die...left a bitter taste in all our mouths."

Have fun~!

[pretty_pink_ribbon]

[She blushes and sputters for a few seconds before she finds words for that.]

Ex-excuse me?!? When the heck did I suggest that?? You're the one who brought up snogging!

[bear_necessities]

[He holds up the book.]

My memories...

[He opens the book and pulls out a black feather.]

Cooro.

[And then a piece of string.]

Nano.

[And then a flower.]

Aoi.

[There are many other things pressed between the various pages, but he figures those were enough for examples.]

[ding_bots_are_done]

Well, maybe they'll get tired of this and go bother some other people.

[ /optimism! ]

You know, I don't think we introduced ourselves yet. I'm Agatha. Agatha Heterodyne.

[swordsaintseta]

Maybe... Although they certainly went through a lot of trouble just to do this.

[He shrugs- and then blinks at Agatha.]

Oh, that's right! We didn't!

[With a sheepish smile, he bows politely.]

Soujirou Seta. It's nice to meet you, Agatha. Ah...well I guess the circumstances could be better, but..!

[unbroken_chain]

Kotoha is going to stare for a few moments, turning that over in her head, before standing up abruptly and walking over to the drawers. Rummaging through, she scrounges up a length of pink ribbon before heading to the bathroom and closing the door.

There's the sound of water running - a faucet, maybe - before she reappears, hands behind her back as she walks over to Senri. Placing one hand on Senri's shoulder, she gives him her sunniest smile as she places what's in her other hand on top of the book - a lock of chestnut brown hair, neatly bound with a pink ribbon.

"Kotoha."

[teddious]

[Th-that was it, wasn't it? It was really exactly like in the movies! He has come so far now!

He moves yet a bit closer to her again.]

Now we're missing a sunset and a beach.

[mementodagger]

[Yurick grumbles, his scowl growing more pronounced as he concentrates.]

Yes, but I can't tell how many or what they might be. Definitely not human, that's all I can say.

[He looks about ready to throw something in an uncharacteristic fit of temper. Instead he climbs out of the bed, only to squawk in renewed indignation at the very tight, silky pink boyshorts he's wearing.]

Oh, that's it...!

[Yup, definitely charging a fireball right now.]

[all_wound_up]

[As soon as Teddie says that, there's a voice from beyond where they can see, recognizable as one the fairies from before.]

Bring in the beach!

[It's echoed a few times by other fairies before a big screen loudly and suddenly unfurls in front of the windows, depicting a romantic beachfront view with the sun setting over the water. The scene is animated and everything, with all the sights and sounds you'd expect from the real thing. If they try to walk behind it, though, it's clear that nothing has changed at all and it's just being projected onto the screen from somewhere.]

O-oh... um... th-thank you?

[bear_necessities]

[He just stares for a minute in surprise. The last time someone offered him something for his book this way was when he received the book itself. 'Keep this flower in your book. As long as you have it, you'll always remember me.' Since then he'd simply taken things. Something from every person he wanted to remember.

After a moment, he smiles and very gently places the lock of hair into the book.]

Kotoha. Thank you.

[ding_bots_are_done]

I've met people under worse circumstances. A lot worse.

[Like Gil. And Tarvek. And Moloch von Zinzer.]

Actually, this is pretty pleasant by comparison. It's nice to meet you.

[swordsaintseta]

Well, if you say so!

[He's not sure how things could get worse, but it's probably better not to think about it.]

So, I guess you like to build things?

[unbroken_chain]

Kotoha's smile smooths out into something gentler as she sits back.

"You're welcome."

[bear_necessities]

[One of the fairies squeals in delight. 'Awwwww, that is sooo cute~!'

Senri just glances back up at them in confusion. He's still not sure what these creatures want. As he looks back, he notices the box of chocolates still sitting there. What had she said about it? That you give those to people you like? Now he knows what to do with it. He walks over, picks up the box, and then brings it back over to the bed. He holds it out to her.]

Valentine.

[ding_bots_are_done]

Trust me. No one is trying to kill either of us, so this is practically fun.

[Then her smile turns bright and excited.]

Love it. There's nothing better than creating something new or different with nothing more than your own ingenuity.

[swordsaintseta]

Although at least under that sort of circumstance, you'd know who you should deal with...

[What can he say, he's better at battles than something like this. Yet, he can't help but chuckle a little as Agatha responds, even though her expression speaks for her already.]

Hehe, I can tell! I couldn't begin to figure out how you'd make any sort of weapon out of all this stuff you've gathered, though.

[ding_bots_are_done]

[She grins confidently. That sounded like a challenge.]

Ha! Are you kidding? There's plenty of options here. Watch.

[It's time to get to work. She turns back to their collection of stuff, cracks her knuckles, and then picks up the coffee maker. As she takes that apart, she starts humming. A strange sort of hum. Somehow she's producing two notes at once. She reaches for a coat hanger. He is about to witness the near total disregard for the laws of physics that a spark brings to the table.]

[swordsaintseta]

[He doesn't mean it that way, but he'll watch intently, nonetheless! Soujirou's rather eager to see what Agatha will come up with.]

[themortalhalf]

And Shinjiro kneels down, inspecting Aki's foot for any shards of glass that might still be stuck in there—probably not, because that would have hurt like shit—and starts to clean his foot with the damp towel once he ascertains that there aren't any stray shards of glass in him.

"If they could read minds and shit," he says, now wrapping a clean towel around Aki's foot, and tying it in the best knot he can manage. With any luck, that'll keep the wound from getting contaminated and will coax the bleeding to stop. It wasn't that deep of a cut, at least. "I'm thinking I'd be sharing a room with a different person."

If this was really a love hotel, anyway. Now that he's awake, he feels like he had heard voices before, but he still isn't so sure. At least his ideas are better than breaking mirrors and getting glass all over.

"I'm gonna see if I can find our clothes, then we can look for a way out. Not gonna run out of this place not wearing ugly crap like this unless I have to. But for now, just keep off your foot until the bleeding stops, alright?"

[boxingemperor]

Akihiko sighs, pulling his leg up onto the bed to inspect his bandaged foot briefly before watching Shinjiro explore the room. He was very tempted to ignore Shinji's command and continue to look around, but his best friend's words got him thinking. "Like who?" Akihiko asks, not thinking the remarks through as he probably should.
