OOC: it fits somewhere in the time line, honest
Christine sighed softly as she smoothed the long flowing part of her dress, trying to get the wrinkles out. She could hardly believe that the day had come - she had reached "maturity" for the lack of a better term, and was now old enough to take her place as ruler of the realm, of course, her father would continue to rule until she finished at Red Fountain.
She allowed 'Beauty to pin a few flowers in her hair, before she turned away from the balcony, not wanting to see the crowds much longer. She turned and walked to a different balcony - one overlooking the woods. She held her hand up, letting a small bird land on it. "I want the magic of love again - The look of longing in his eyes - All the wonder and surprise - Of knowing that the best is yet to come - I need the magic of love again - Give me a magic wand to wave - Tell me the magic words to say - To bring back the magic of love - No illusions - He's a man who has many dreams - But it's so confusing - To be always in between - I want the magic of love again - That subtle sorcery of the heart - The fire his smile used to start - That makes me feel I'll never get enough - Give me a magic wand to wave - Repeat the miracle that gave us - The wonderful magic of love," she sang, her voice pure.
She laughed as the bird trilled along with her singing. With a gentle wave of her hand, the bird flew off. It was a mere twenty minutes before she had to head down and take part in one of the most boring ceremonies known to man. She personally would have loved to have done away with the whole spectacle but tradition stated it must be done.
She gracefully picked up a small bit of her gown in her hand, raising it just enough that you could just see her slippers and made her way down the stairs. She managed to keep an air of calmness and contentment on her features, all the while masking the disappointment of not having heard from her team one way or the other if they were going to be in attendence.
As her foot hit the final step, she heard voices coming from the next room. Curious, she silently made her way to the doorway and peered in through the crack in the door. Her eyes widened in surprise. Her boys did show! Oh, they were horrid, the lot of them for making her worry, but she still loved them.
She silently pushed the door open and cleared her throat softly. "I'd like to thank you for coming to share this day with me," she said politely, before allowing her true spirited nature to break free. "And if you ever plan a stunt like this again, don't. You nearly gave me heart failure, I honestly thought none of you would show," she said, giving them a cheeky grin.
OOC: tags, Brandon, Sky, Riven, Karina, Tash, and any other nobles (or non-nobles) that feel like taking part
OOC2: the ceremony will be as shown here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronation_of_the_British_Monarch
