festive rainbow mirror summoning!

[incanted]

There are now one dozen Bells.

They and most of their friends are all here on Planet Rainbowsand II, to celebrate the addition of Sarion, the elf one, and Aurora, the one with a sister.

"'Cause she's so cuddly?" asks Aurora weakly.

[cardistry]

He laughs.

"She is, I can see why the Joker wanted me to hang out with her if things got fucked up with us."

[incanted]

Aurora snuggles up to him. "So the emergency procedure, if there's ever a desperate hurry and no more time to argue, involves having Jane banish you to Origin?"

[cardistry]

"That's... probably the best emergency procedure if you really feel like you absolutely have to do something right away. I won't like it much, but... I'll hang out with Queenie and wait for you to come explain."

[incanted]

"Okay. And with any luck it won't come up." Snuggles.

[cardistry]

"...The only way I can think of for it to come up is if we were arguing about something and got interrupted by something else," says Brilliance, "in which case you probably don't want me to go hang out with Queenie, you want me to stick around and help you deal with the emergency."

[incanted]

"Would you do that? With the argument still unresolved?"

[cardistry]

"Um, yeah?"

[incanted]

"Okay then."

[cardistry]

He hugs her.

[incanted]

Hugs!

[cardistry]

Huuuuuugs.

Amariah wanders by and conjures a little golden trophy, cup-shaped on a wooden stand, and deposits it into a bewildered Aurora's hand and wanders away.

[cardistry]

"What the fuck," giggles Brilliance.

[incanted]

Aurora peers at the trophy, then checks for an engraving.

It says For Excellence In Grownup Problem Solving.

She sporfles.

[cardistry]

Brilliance also sporfles!

[incanted]

"Wow," says Aurora.

[cardistry]

"Should we maybe ask her to explain that," wonders Brilliance, "or should we just put it on a shelf somewhere and admire it occasionally?"

[incanted]

"I have no idea. I don't even have a shelf that I would consider suitable to hold an award of this magnitude."

[cardistry]

"Also," says Brilliance, "important question for Amariah who is apparently eavesdropping on us, is that award for us or just for you."

[dark_light]

[Both of you,] says Amariah from her just-barely-within-earshot vantage point.

[cardistry]

"In that case, thanks!"

[incanted]

Aurora laughs and puts the trophy down someplace out of the way - it's not like anyone's going to steal it - and then gives Brilliance a kiss.

[cardistry]

Brilliance kisses back. Mmmmmmkiss.
