a very grand opening

[warningdoor]

[Suddenly and without warning, a door appears in front of you. It's pink and there's a poster taped to it.

WELCOME TO TEEN GIRL PARADISE!
Beyond this door is our grand opening party.
You will be dressed accordingly.
Hope you like pink!
Scribbled underneath the poster text in pink glitter pen cursive, someone has written ps: no boys allowed! ♥ but it doesn't appear to be particularly serious. Except for how it is and the party that lies beyond the door has been restricted to girls only. Preferably teenage ones, but we're not that picky.

Upon entering the room, your character will be dressed in something princess-y. It doesn't have to be pink, that part of the poster refers to the state of the room.



It's very pink. To the side of the room, there is a buffet-style table of food. It mostly consists of sweets such as impossibly tall pink cakes and cookies and no less than four kinds of pink punch, but there's also tiny sandwiches and fruit platters as well as cheese plates. And, for some reason, a whole roasted pig. What? Girls gotta eat too.

Aside from the tables set up for eating, each of which will fit four people at it, there's a dance floor if you feel like dancing.]

Comments

[willfindme]

[It only feels appropriate that the first comment on this musebox comes from the very beacon of hope herself! Madoka is currently just wandering around the room, taking everything in.]

Wow, it's all so pretty!

[willcatchyou]

[Homura walks around the party cautiously, examining all of it for shady business before enjoying anything. After all, there aren't that many other people he--

Wait. That voice sounds familiar, but... No, it couldn't be. All this stuff she'd like is just getting to Homura's head. Right? Obviously though it couldn't hurt to check...

She rounds the corner and. There she is. Just standing there. There's no way it's not her, even in how absurdly pink everything around her is Homura has spent a long damn time learning how to pick her out of a crowd. Homura wishes she could do something cooler than what she does, which is kind of just. Freeze up. And ask.]

Madoka?

[willfindme]

[Madoka turns, and her face lights up when she seems Homura.]

Homura, you're here too!

[willcatchyou]

[Okay so. It's her. It's her it's her she's here.

Homura would like to play it cool here. Homura is utterly incapable of playing it cool here. She just sort of says new frilly dress be damned and RUNS UP TO HUG MADOKA OH MY GOD SHE MISSED YOU SO MUCH EVEN THOUGH YOU WERE OMNIPRESENT AND STUFF]

I thought you were...

[She has no idea how to finish that, really. Dead? God? Gone is probably the word, except she never was. The word tangible never really crosses her mind but seems to be the important one.]

[willfindme]

[Madoka just kind of lets Homura hug her because she knows that becoming the embodiment of hope and everything was kind of rough on her too. But once she got the hang of how to actually exist in multiple places at the same time, everything got a little less weird. She still hadn't been that great at first, but all it took was a little practice. She'd been practicing so something like this could happen and now it had.]

I did too.

[wonttell]

[Lyn is not super-weirded-out by the party overall. The food is pretty good - she's eating some now. It's the dress that's distressing, all frills and restricting bits. Also it's... kind of boring? Yeah. Not many people here yet.]

[wascrying]

[Florina beelines straight for Lyn because familiar face and she's just really not equipped for parties.]

Lyn?

[wonttell]

[She brightens at the familiar face]

Florina! How are you?

[wascrying]

I'm . . . okay. [She's wearing something that looks like the Kaylee dress in purple and white.] But, um. This dress is kind of . . . extravagant?

[wonttell]

Yeah, I'm not a huge fan of this one, either. [WANNA GO GET OUT OF THEM WINK WONK?????] Any idea where we are?

[iceinsidemysoul]

[SO EXCITED SO EXCITED SO EXCITED. Anna seriously loves parties (especially now that they can have them!) and this is no exception. She's in an awesome dress, and there's food and people and everything is awesome ok. So awesome. The most awesome.

Don't mind her, she's just over by the food table gettin' some punch and trying not to vibrate right out of her dress.]

[lanternstho]

[Rapunzel has found that she really likes parties too, since getting her kingdom back and all. She walks up next to Anna because TALKING TO PEOPLE YEAH!!!]

So which punch is the best? [There's more than one okay it's a valid question.]

[iceinsidemysoul]

I like this one because it's got little orange slices floating in it. [That's 100% a valid reason to prefer a punch.] They look like little suns floating in a pink sky or something.

[lanternstho]

Well, that works for me. I'm... pretty fond of the sun, myself. [She grabs some] How do you like the party?

[iceinsidemysoul]

It's great! I love parties, but my sister is kind of uptight because she's queen and stuff so we didn't used to have parties until the time we had a party and Elsa accidentally made eternal winter, which kind of sucked but everything turned out okay in the end.

[Did she take a breath while she was talking? What.]

[somethingsomethingswords]

[Sayaka is just sort of. Casually leaning against a wall and eating a piece of cake. It's very tasty.]

[somethingsomethingfood]

[Don't mind Kyoko standing next to you. She's got a towering plate of food that she's burning through.]

[somethingsomethingswords]

Which plate number is that?

[somethingsomethingfood]

Two. [She thinks for a moment.] Maybe three.

[somethingsomethingswords]

At least it doesn't look like there's enough for you to keep other people from having any. [She sticks her tongue out at her. Oh u~]

what

[serice_ebooks]

[A somewhat noisy BANG heralds the arrival of someone who's as pink as the decor. Probably even worse than the decor - violently pink, almost tastelessly so, and definitely against sensibilities.]

[Such a description can apply equally to the the person herself, as well.]

Huh! Didn't think that something like this was in the Togie Mount district! You'd figure that the sticks in charge would have, like, called the police on the painters or decor people...

[She eyes the food plates and begins making her way over to those tables.]

Maybe food safety, too? How long's this been out for? Actually...

[Sunlight♥Memory, the Magical Girl of the Central Genaralos Boroughs, stops in the middle of the hall for a second, looking around.]

...Anyone home?

[withenthusiasm]

[Sure, there's people around! In fact, one of them is waving enthusiastically. She's slightly older than a lot of the people milling around, in the state of twentysomething where she could be 20 or 25, and wearing a ridiculous purple gown.]

Hello! Did you just get here?

[serice_ebooks]

[Serice turns around to face the person gretting her!]

>purple

_WHAT_

Uh, yeah! I got this weirdo invitation and all and I'm done with my business for the day, so I figured 'eh!' and went for it. I'm Ser―― Uhh, I'm Sunlight★Memory, magical girl of the Central Boroughs! What's your name?

[withenthusiasm]

Lilly! [She says it with an excessive amount of enthusiasm. Actually, she says everything with an excessive amount of enthusiasm.] It's pronounced with enthusiasm, because there's an exclamation point after it.

It's nice to meet you, Sunlight★Memory.

[If it sounds like she imitated the inflection and pronunciation of that name, she did. It's in her programming.]

[serice_ebooks]

Hi, Lilly!。 [She coughs and edges away. Weird people are weird.] Eh, I tried. So, what's the deal with this place, anyway? Like, who's the owner and stuff? Seems pretty, uh. Out of place. But it's all right! I mean, the food looks okay.
