    Feisty, she was, and temperamental. But Donatiel loved nothing more than a good surprise--except, perhaps, to guide the resulting storm.

    Without moving, without catching the eye, he was at once downstairs, in mid-stride to his dearest, cradling her, her legs wobbling, her eyes glassy, her self gone from the room for less than a blink. She fell into his waiting arms, and he held her close. Her mouth moved sparsely, trying to form words. He heard plenty of words... Although, fair to say, none were spoken.

    "Hush now," he whispered, "hush. It's all right, my dear. I'll take care of you. I'll take care of everything."

    The others would scarcely notice a change. There was hardly a change to notice. Slight. Subtle. The erasure of a few steps, a soundless scream, and the errant spark of panic. Panic? What panic? His daughter was discussing a party! No panic to be had there. And oh, so sweetly she cooed, tugging at his pant leg even as he held the Lady.

    "Oh father, may we please have a party to celebrate our guest's arrival? It would be so much fun! We do so seldom get guests, and it would give her a night she'll never forget. Please Father, may we? Pretty please with a cherry on top?"

    He saw her lip quiver on the last word. She'd stopped herself, before something morbid slipped out. Such a good girl. And sweet as could be... It was hard to say no, sometimes. This coming from someone who, technically speaking, had no heart! Surely, her charm was otherworldly...

    "I... I will retire early."

    ... And yet, it seemed her wish was not in the cards.

    "I'm sorry, sweetie," Dona said, patting his daughter's head, "but you heard our guest. She must be tired; I suspect the forest is quite a trial for a lone young lady. Perhaps she would consent to a spot of festivity after a good night's sleep."

    He turned to the girl. She'd held his gaze well enough, though he had noticed her wavering. He wondered: Could she face one's bare soul at birth, or was she nurtured to?

    "We have a room ready and waiting. Daxam, would you kindly?"

    'He' bowed ever so, acting out 'his' place in the scene to the nearest approximation of what 'he' had already done. Dona turned back to his wife, and murmured in her ear.

    "You should be resting as well, dearest. Come now; I'll return you to your quarters."

    Pressure. Slight, subtle, as it was; as it must be. Her head would hurt. Not suddenly, not enough to be questioned, but too much to bother speaking. She would not cause trouble again this hour. He began to usher her out; he'd return her to her proper place, then sit down with the others for dinner. Simple enough.

    No, the fuss is about the Zebra and Hashiyan version.

    And, to a lesser extent, the Lon version.

    And, to the extent of only one person (which is me), this lovely lady's Matryoshka dance.

    The biggest problem with the text coloration is that I may have to copy it from one medium to another, make alterations, edit certain portions... I would just rather have the raw paste data be as clean as possible.

    Are they? Jesus Christsgtfsdgsdgdf

    Ok I guess I'll have to fix that. Stay tuned, there may be an edit incoming.

    EDIT: Edit completed! Alex is now a Derse dreamer and Kieran is a Prospit dreamer.

    Ok, finally got around to adding everyone's profiles to the list, in the proper order, and (imo) with much neater coding. I also have everyone's Lands, Denizens, and dreaming planets decided; working on the Consorts presently. You might notice that some people's classes/aspects have been changed; don't mind that, I just wanted to come up with one-syllable synonyms for the titles we had, since that's the official format. Everyone will still function much as they may have expected to before. Aaaand I had some other stuff to announce but I forgot. sdfsgsdg.

    P, I understand you're trying to express yourself, but I'm afraid your choice of text colors is just too much of a hassle. Please stick to plain yellow.

    And... can we all use the format provided next time? ._. Sifting through all the fonts and sizes is a nightmare. I provided an outline for a reason, y'know.

    Anyway, here's everyone's Land and dreaming planet! If you'd like, you can start working on a planet-specific outfit. Just remember to use the proper settings/pencil tool if you're using Photoshop!

    Reality.

    I would immediately break it 'cause I'm a clumsy fuck

    >Assume your loved one needs protection
    >Deprive them of all potential for struggle and conflict, thus all potential for self-betterment
    >Y'know, because I love them!


    Oversimplified, but it's something to think about.

    Two people knew more than me, but did not connect the dots from there.

    Let me try this again.

    Does anyone have a ♀ Dratini with Marvel Scale?
