Chapter 1
The end of Spring in Buffalo, New York. It was a time of year that meant many things to many people. For most, it meant that the weather was finally going to be nice for a little while before the blistering heat of Summer. For Changelings, the last three weeks of the season was a non-stop party as the Spring Court celebrated their season's ending with an even more out-of- control cascade pf debaucheries than had heralded its coming.
One of the more somber events was the Freshers Ball, a large party where every Changeling who had been in Buffalo for less than a year was brought together in order to build camaraderie…or at least that was the reason that everyone said out loud. The unspoken truth, however, was so the Summer and Winter Courts could put faces to names.
Currently this year’s group had been gathered a bit early and now stood in the communal hollow used for social functions staring at each other in awkward silence while Roxie Tellura and her boyfriend Bruce Halford were setting up the last pieces of the music system.
The room itself was huge, hollowed out of the hedge and currently festooned with vibrant color changing flowers of all kinds. on a dais was a throne shaped from thousands of silver and emerald vines.
“That’s about it… there is just one more little thing†Roxie’s spiral galaxy eyes twinkled mischievously, the constellations that covered the midnight black surface of her skin glittered as she leaned in close to Bruce while she ghosted his lips with a smoldering kiss using this as a distraction to fasten a name tag to his shirt. "Have fun"
(alright guys your chars are all guest's at this party, so smooze, talk to each other you are all wearing a name tag that states 'Hi, my name is ________')
