(1803) Spring Coronation

[Coco]

"I suppose one could say that I'm 'pretty bad', and if you don't believe me, just ask Sasha, there," Coco said to the blue elf ( Circe ), an odd glint entering her eye.

She'd noticed how the Winter queen had avoided greeting her. Well. The feeling was mutual.

Turning back to the Spring Queen (and shooting Mhairi a wink on the way), Coco put on her flashiest of smiles.

"Yes, my Queen! I was, indeed, once a member of this most hospitable Freehold, though I must say that it is a wonderful surprise to find one as worthy as you wearing the Crown. Your predecessors were not as worthy, though I suppose there is little point in speaking ill of those who are no longer here. Besides, Spring is about the present, is it not? About renewal? Well, I wish to renew my time here in Sacramento, and my place amongst our most enticing and august of Courts! Though, if you would wish to discuss such a pledge at another time, I understand. Everyone is vying for your attention, and apparently the quest for bitchin' tunes has begun."

[Mhairi Ankaa]

Mhairi feels bad as her attempt at a distraction see a to prompt panic, comfermed as the Antler Crowned Darkling asks after songs.

"I can belt out a tune, but maybe the MP3 player would be better," if it could play in the Thorns. "But maybe Seraphina might serenade us?" the wisp ask a sly smile upon her lips. To hear the Spring sing, was always a treat, but to have her perform for her Queen's Coranation...that would be magical.

[Seraphina]

Then the talks turns to singing and songs.

But drinking songs weren’t her thing.

And then Ingrid asks, there was a shake of her head, “I don’t know any drinking songs. But if someone knows some and has the lyrics, I can wing it. Or I can sing.” A shrug. Bitchin tunes she didn’t really know, nor would they fit her voice. At least not in her opinion.

Looking back to Sasha, “We still have to go shopping sometime. I’d love to see how you pick out your clothes. Cause they’re always soo amazing!” and always fit the Fairests body so well.

Grinning to Circe, “It is such a handsome coat.” She agrees, a light squeeze of John hand. A little bit of pride because she helped him pick it out.

As Coca then points out Sasha could verify her being pretty bad, sapphires glance over at the Winter. She did notice that the Dancer avoided greeting the Wasp. Which was curious. Maybe some bad blood of some sort? A misunderstanding? But she was curious.

Smirking as she looked the Mhairi, “I can do that, but it won’t be bitchin tunes. My voice doesn’t really work for most dance music.” But she could serenade.

[Quick]

"Yes to drinking. No to songs. Never been my thing. Plus, can't really sing. Not. A. Note." he says, offering a shrug in lieu of apology to Winter and Spring Sovereigns.

"See? Circe's got it covered." he says, taking another sip. Is Circe flirting, too? Spring must be in the air.

"Sera! Yes! You should totally sing. It's the Season for it." he says, smiling first at Sera and then winking at Ingrid.

[Circe]

"Yo Sasha!" Circe looks at Sasha and points with her free hand at Cosima, "She fibbin'? And girl," this was directed at Cosima, "My standards for bad are a low. Seen too much big evil and big propriety. Mostly I say screw it."

Ah, here was a chance to have fun with her house guest. Yay. "Oh it very much is Sera," as Circe speaks she takes a position on the side of John opposite from Seraphina. "Perfect for such a gentleman as John her," grinning widely, "And it turns out he is very much a handyman," screw wide the blue skin of her lips were stretching practically from ear to ear, "Well, I suppose I can get quite handy too at times."

The elf next pulled out her smartphone and quickly looked up both songs. And found a third one, "Oh hey, there's a song about Tequilla too! I didn't know that. But got the lyrics!" After a moment she turned her head to John, "Heeeeey? Ya wanna selfie of ya between me and Seraphina?"

[Ingrid]

If anything was simmering in the background, on this occasion the normally astute Darkling missed it. Ingrid was too busy winging it. Managing a gathering of the Lost - even such a tiny one - was harder than it looked when you were in the middle of it.

Ingrid took the out offered by the group with both hands.

She smiled. She beamed. She gushed. "Well!" She purred to Seraphina , "I detect that your moment has come! If thats your desire."

She fastened her face toward the Fairest, her face glimmering with hopeful exuberance. And maybe an encouraging nod. Or two.

[Coco]

Oh. Ok. Sure.

That was fucking great.

Like, yeah, ok, Coco had given the Queen an out, but the least she could have done was acknowledge it, couldn't she?

The facade was gone now. No more dandy, no more knight errant, no more charming fairy courtier. It was time to get her goddamn drink on before she opened her stupid wrists again and sprayed the blood on everyone...

With all the attention directed toward the Siren, Coco took the opportunity to scoot down to the end of the bar, hop up onto it, and then swing herself over so she could get her choice of the beverages available. Coco didn't even care that there were no labels. She just grabbed a bottle, popped the cork out, and went to town.

[Mhairi Ankaa]

A smile, as the others raise their voices in a bid to get Sera to sing, "It dosen't have to be a bawdy drinking song. Sing whatever you like. However you like it." wasn't that the point of Spring?

Coco's...Coco is easy to spot as the Wasp hops over the bar top and grabs a bottle from the shelf.

Buzzing with worry and adrenaline, "Sera can sing, we can dance? Yes! Dancing! Maybe Never Have I Ever, after?" looking around the room, "Anyone know other drinking games?"

[Seraphina]

Seemed even John was game for her to sing.

Not that she minded, she loved performing. But she didn’t want the attention on her tonight, it wasn’t her night.

It was Ingrids.

A private smile was offered to John.

Looing to Quick, there was a grin, “But when I host a karaoke night for the Freehold, you’re going to join in right? Come on. It’ll be fun!” she tries to tease and encourage.


Flirting? Teasing John? Trying to make the guy blush? She wasn’t sure what her aim was.

Did the elfs words bother her? No.

“Well, having someone handy around is always a good thing.” But if there was bait for another response, she wasn’t biting.

Sapphires then move to Ingrid, “If my Queen wishes me to sing, I shall sing.” A bow of her head. This was about Ingrid, and Sera was determined to make sure she knew it.

Smirking to Mhairi, “I’ll sing, but I want in on Never Have I Ever! It’s a fun game!” that was the rule, she’d sing, but she wanted in on the games.

And so she begins to sing. It wasn't her best and she knew it immediately, and wanted to crawl under a rock. It was good, but not her best. And to her, if it wasn't her best, it wasn't worth sharing. But it was too late, so she continues her song.
