"Or YOU, Adella." Alana smiled. "You look amazing in that color and you're pretty much POURED into it! It's nice to see you in something other then hoodies and t-shirts." She teased. "Oh... I should get the music started..." She strode over to her station and laid down a few tracks that would get them through the evening until the concert began.
Eric was still lingering by the bar. Alana shot him a look. WHY was he still here??? Did he have a death wish? She was about to make her way over to him to gently remind him that he was about to find himself in a room of possible human-hating mermaids, but a woman came through the door.
"PEARL???" Alana practically shouted. She jumped down from her station and ran over to her dearest childhood friend in a quiet unprincess-like manner. Pearl's eyes widened and she dropped her studded purse, throwing her arms wide open.
"ALANA BUFAUNA!" She screeched back at the royal princess. The two embraced and chatted up a storm. Pearl had been quite a free spirited subject that met Alana one day while she was in her gardens with her pet sea turtle. The two mer-girls became friends INSTANTLY. Pearl encouraging the once shy Alana to become the crowd savvy diva that she later would become. "Oh... I have missed you so much, girl!"
"I've missed you too!" Alana was practically in tears. "We have to do lunch sometime! There is SO MUCH we need to catch up on!"
"Word." Pearl nodded. "But first... I need to tinkle... where's the... oh, I see it over there." She was heading over towards the restrooms when she took notice of the servers. "Are they gonna be here ALL night?" She asked.
"Ugh...not once the concert starts." Alana answered. "Why?"
"I just hate the idea of THEM skulking around all night! What a relief..." She turned and continued on her way.
Them... humans.
Alana's heart sank slightly. She had forgotten how she and Pearl would go off about humans and how evil they were...how it would be a better place if there were none. She felt the blood rush from her face... as if she had inadvertently kindled a hatred in another person without knowing it. Alana looked over at Eric, who seemed unaware of what had just transpired. He looked up from his drink that he had gotten from the bar and waved, oblivious. She gave a weak wave and turned back towards her station, trying to distract herself.

Ariel laughed at her sister and Pearl Ariel remember really well a time when Pearl got them in a ton of trouble by sneaking off to a club.
"Oh Adella your to sweet honestly they are going to be watching all of us and Alana has never looked more beautiful." Ariel smiled thinking about how nice it was to just be with her family.
"I am glad your singing with me tonight Adella. I am pretty excited to sing with my sisters again and actually show up this time." Ariel giggled. "I guess there is a first time for everything right?" Ariel looked behind her grabbing a glass of wine from the table and sipped it carefully.

Adella chuckled. "Yeah, if only Sebastian were here to see us. He'd be so proud. Surprised that none of us came late, but proud all the same." Attachments:

"Ugh, that crusty old sea-urchine," Andy sneered," I was hoping he hadn't come here so we wouldn't be followed and pestered by him anymore! The one nice thing about this world really...."

"Aw Andrina he wasn't that bad." Ariel admitted sometimes she even liked him. "Still I think Daddy will love seeing us all together and singing to." Ariel giggled she felt so good to be with her sisters and doing something her father would love.

Triton walked into the front entrance of the nice restaurant, tugging at his suit. Alana had laid it out for him, saying it would look "dashing" on him... before she ran off to run errands for the evening. There was an elevator in the lobby to take guests to the top floor. The doors were about to close, but he saw Arista following close behind. He stuck out his arm to hold the elevator so she could come as well.
She looked.... lovely... by human standards. He knew he should say something to that effect... but he would find all of his daughters so much more lovely in their natural state... as mermaids. "You look... sparkly, Arista." He managed, before pressing the button to their floor. He noticed that she had her camera case on hand.
"I wonder how long this will last." He muttered to himself. He didn't like going outside of the shop often.

" Hopefully long enough to make you smile again." Arista smiled at her father and greeted him with a hug and a kiss as she always did. " You look... very dashing, father."

"Agreed." Adella nodded, before she caught sight of Arista with their father and gasped. She LOVED the dress she was wearing! It reminded her of the night sky, glimmering like starlight. Despite its dark color, it made her glow and Adella noticed that it caught the attention of the humanized mermen in the room who were all gazing at her. Adella had to chuckle at that and she thought the suit their father wore made him look very handsome. She briefly thought what their mother would think if she saw him like this, but had to shake her head free of it. No sadness tonight... Attachments:

Alana was busy around her station as her father came in. He didn't have a smile on his face. But he looked so handsome in his midnight sky blue suit with black shirt and silver tie. He had been apprehensive about it... but she had convinced him to be daring.
She cued up a song that sounded regal and royal, to announce the arrival of the Ocean King. Everyone who had arrived so far, which was a decent sized crowd turned and applauded. Alana grinned to herself as he waved awkwardly, shooting her a glance over the fanfare that said 'We are going to talk about this later, tadpole.' She let it fad into another song after a few moments. She wanted to go up to him, tell him how wonderful he looked, but the other sisters were clustered around him at the moment, paying compliments. She figured she should let them have their moments with him tonight, being as how she LIVED with him.
She scanned around the room, to see Gill nervously along the wall, sipping punch, while his chocolate colored eyes were fixed on Arista. Alana sauntered up to him. "Hey Gill!" She greeted, trying to make him feel welcome. She could tell he felt out of place in a crowd.

Ariel went over to her father, "Daddy I am so glad you came." She gave him a hug. "You look so handsome." Ariel told him she had the feeling he wasn't exactly happy about this but maybe he would be when he daughters sang like the times back in the sea kingdom.

Adella had gone over to compliment the Ocean King on his handsome appearance until a very familiar voice grabbed her attention.
"Princess Adella?"
She turned to see someone she hadn't seen in such a long time, blinking in surprise. "Wade?!"
The young merman in question grinned, apparently thrilled that she remembered him, but bowed respectfully nonetheless. "I'm glad to see you haven't forgotten me."
"How could I forget?" She was still a bit stunned that he was here, though it shouldn't be surprising. It was a ball for MERPEOPLE after all. Her first and only merboyfriend... It brought up a lot of memories of the two swimming in the palace gardens, sneaking kisses whenever they could or just trying to find the time to spend with him.
The decision for them to split was mutual, but she could tell there was hesitation on his part. He clearly didn't want to break-up with her, but respected the decision nonetheless. She had felt for him once, but that fire died in her a long time ago. Now it just seemed odd to see him here, dressed in a black, formal suit with his blonde hair slicked back.
"You look great in that suit!" She complimented, trying to feel a little less awkward.
"Thanks! You look gorgeous..." He briefly gave her a once-over, before gently taking her hands in his, "...but then, you always do."
Adella would have blushed at that if this was before, but she only smiled. "Thank you. It's good to see you again, Wade."
"Same here." The music turned into a slow waltz and Adella could already tell where this was going, "Do you want to dance? You know, just for old time's sake?"
Adella could tell there was a separate agenda to this than just a simple dance. She could see that he still cared a great deal about her. On the other hand, what could it hurt to dance just this once?
"Sure." She replied, letting him lead her out to the dance floor.

Triton blinked at Ariel. She was stunning... just like her mother. "As do you... beautiful, I mean." He took in a breath and sighed, the Tim Ocean's side of him dreading fancy social gatherings. He would rather be at the garage fixing a bike... a fishing with Opal. But that man didn't exist. Neither did those comforting memories...
He turned to see Adella be led until the dance floor with a young merman...Wade was it? Dear Neptune, it had been AGES since he had seen the two together. They suited each other so well. A small grin crept across his face as we watched them dance.

"Thank you Daddy." Ariel smiled, "Oh we have such a fun night planned all for you Daddy!" Ariel giggled. It was so much like the balls in Atlantica she missed them so much.
As much as Ariel loved being human home was home and she would never hate it. Even if she sometimes felt it was a prison Ariel loved it and she was proud of being a mermaid. No matter what others might think she hoped this might show her father that more then words because Ariel sometimes had a hard time talking to him.

Ariel spotted her eldest sister coming into the ball. "Attina you look so pretty." Ariel smiled at her.
"This night is really going to be fun don't you think?"
