A Ball

[Jack]

hey so this is a ball. Anyone can play anything. i'm gonna just make a charrie. be original! 'Course you all are but still.

[Jack]

Edana sat near the fountain, her making eddies in the dark liquid. She was invited so the Gods would not be angered. But no mortal would tough her, the youths looked at her with frightened eyes, and the girls covered their mouths with hankerchiefs and fluttered their eyes, like scared horses. Fools, she would not eat them lke her kelpie friends would. She was above all that, she was a goddess.

((...*jaws theme plays* OMG!! Elien what're you wearing?!
Elien-What do you mea-*looks at self AAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGHHHHH!!))

Elien was leaning against a wall near the grand staircase thing, wearing an elegant blue and purple dress. She looked very angry and had her arms crossed.

[Jack]

Edana meant Fierce in the old tongue. Her name described her perfectly. She Watched as her hand transfrmed into her water form and back. The skin became slightly tinged with blue and shiny, like a fish. Her eyes were unlike mortal's, having thin slit pupils and unearthly blue.
her hair had small lights in it, divinely made crystallized water droplets.
Edana watched Elien and held in a laugh, she looked absolutely uncomfortable. Eda got up from her spot at the fountain and made her way over. "My, you look uncomfortable. Is there anything I can do?" She kept a straight face, the smile she held in tugging at the corners of her firm mouth.

Elien looked over at Edana and grinned grumpily. "Yes, you can blow this whole place up and get me my fighting outfit." she said, laughing a little. "I hate these stupid balls. They're so annoying."

[Jack]

Eda nodded slowly. "Yes, they have no love for difference here." She said nothing of her immortality. Mortals became uncomfotable when they found that they had been talking to a goddess. She wanted only to be normal, not to have people fawning over her.

[Skie Loon]

Elien nodded back. "Yes, I didn't want to come, my friends made me. They're blackmailing as payback for knocking all of them off this really tall tree." she said, grinning. "no one got hurt of course, we grew up in trees so there was no chance of that. But they still got angry, took my sword, hid it, and threatened to never give it back unless I go to this stupid ball, 'appropriately dressed'." she said, grimacing.

[Jack]

Edana could hold it no longer. She laughed heartily. "I'm sorry.... I've been waiting to laugh all day. Mother and father don't usually laugh. Seeing as they're too busy with their worshippers." she stopped laughing suddenly and covered her mouth, a look of horror crossing her features. She kicked herself mentally, of course Elien would know that worshippers were for gods. They didn't worship mere mortals.

[Skie Loon]

Elien looked confused. "Worshipers? What? Are your parents Gods or something?" she asked.

[Jack]

"No! Forget I even said that," she snapped. Eda sighed, "I'm sorry, sore subject." She rubbed her brow. Hopefully Elien would not push the subject. It had always been a sore subject. once they knew you were a goddess, everyone thought you would bless them, make miracles.

[Skie Loon]

Elien shrugged "Ah whatever." she said. "So what are you doing here? And what are those little lights in your hair? They're supah cool." she said, grinning.

[Jack]

"My Father gave them to me. He's uh a sailor. He goes all over the world." She fingered them lightly. Mayhap Elien wouldn't notice her eyes as well, how was Eda to lie about those?

[Skie Loon]

Elien nodded "Wow, my dad was a blacksmith. Made my sword. That's why I came here. Cuz it's special to me." she said angrily. "Oh I'll pay them back." she said, grinning. "Oh yeah."

[Jack]

"Was? Surely he is still alive?" Eda's face filled with concern.((whoo, stupid one liners!))
