The Gathering

IC
Characters: EVERYBODY
Summary: It's been a year since Chaos was defeated and the world was saved. So, naturally, it's time for a reunion party, right?
Location: Lindblum Grand Castle
Date: November 1st, 1806
Style: Up to you!

About two weeks ago, an invitation was sent out via skyphone to all of the sky people of Gaia- and a select few natives, too. It invited everyone to Lindblum, for a one year anniversary celebration of Garland's defeat. Such an event couldn't pass by without a celebration, after all. Yesterday, airships had been sent out to the far corners of the world to pick up everyone and bring them to Lindblum. Even the most reticent and party-hating of adventurers won't be able to avoid this. It is a worldwide celebration. Besides, it's best to celebrate with friends.

The Lindblum castle is covered in decorations for the occasion. Most are plain and themed for the upcoming winter, though for some reason, moogles feature rather prominently. Tables set around the ballroom are covered with snacks and foods, from snowmen to more moogles to- are those cookies shaped like Garland on a chobobo? ... Maybe it's best not to ask.

In the center of the ballroom is a clear space for dancing, and musicians sit off to the side and play for those who want to dance. To the side, there are tables for those who are looking for a simple conversation or who are taking time to eat. And, of course, for those who want to get away from everything for a while, there are always places in Lindblum to slip away to. But why would you want to do that, when everyone is here?

"Don't say that! He's looking after Amber right now, so I hope he's keeping the trouble-making to a minimum."

One could never be sure with Zidane.

As Blank led her onto the floor, it was easy to fall into step with him. They had a sort of ease and comfort with one another, something Dagger couldn't say she had ever shared with any of the other Tantalus brothers. "I worry. She's not even two-years-old, but I think she's taking after him," said Dagger, in an almost conspiratorial way.

Zidane could attract trouble wherever he went. It was a well known fact. Of course, married life and parenthood had quelled the mischief slightly, but there was still plenty of trouble-making in the king.

He couldn't help but smile as they danced. "Oh she's going to be a fine little thief when she's older, you can count on that." Hey, he's got to encourage his favourite niece!

His only niece, Dagger might have reminded him. At least, for the time being.

"Don't even start that," Dagger replied, with a obvious tone of exasperation. "She's... a princess, I can't have my daughter running around picking the pockets of nobility at social gatherings."

She shook her head lightly, as they turned across the floor in time with the music. "We'll able to explain such behavior away for a while, but someday it will stop being childish mischief, and become a serious problem." Dagger turned out, and in, in time with the draw of the violin strings. "I already see so much of him in her... but there's got to be something of me there, too..."

Wait... Did it actually sound like it bothered her? Even just a little?

"She is very much like you in many ways. She's going to be beautiful just like you and graceful. She's a wonderful little princess, don't worry. The world is going to adore her and love her as much as we do." Aw, Dagger, don't let her sticky little fingers get you down.

Blank smiled. "Everything will work out fine. Trust me."
