Belle allows Jane to handle the guest list, and warns the kitchen that it will be serving many people, and makes sure that the living gardens are behaving themselves about maintaining paths for people to walk along, and she comes up with an enchantment to augment the castle's set of behavior so it can offer up appropriate music at appropriate times. She flies to Luc's village, and fetches him back, and tells him of the coming festivities, and assigns him to develop an introductory description of what enchanting is so that she can delegate tedious repeated introductory descriptions of it to him. Jane gives her advance notice of the nametag conventions, and she considers an enchanting solution but does not think it is best suited; she wishes the system into place instead.

She does like having wishes.

Nathan's gonna go see how the pile of Jokers is doing, after handing Kerron over to Elspeth.

Permalink

What a coincidence, Amariah's headed the same way.

Permalink

The pile of Jokers is getting along just as you'd expect! They have convinced the castle to produce a bed big enough for the whole pile of them and then some, and they are all cuddled up on it, talking and laughing and kissing and doing various related activities.

Amariah looks for her sweeties and inserts herself thereabouts. "Hi sweeties. All us Bells have wished up powers like Rose's but we have to do lots of enchanting to get auras like hers."

Permalink

"Oh," says Beast, "that's fun."

Permalink

"You can channel through us," Kas says brightly. Petaal nods and cuddles up.

Permalink

Meanwhile, the Joker holds out his arms to his sweetie.

Permalink

"I didn't think you'd object," says Amariah happily.

Permalink

Nathan snuggles right up to his mate.

Permalink
The Joker kisses him.

"I wouldn't mind some'a those special effects myself," he muses. "Whaddya say, hon? Would I look cute as an enchantress?"
Permalink

"You'd make a lovely enchantress, babe," says Nathan. "What're you gonna enchant?"

Permalink

"I have nnnnnnnno idea," he says serenely.

Permalink

"Sounds like a quandary," observes Nathan. "Takes five years' worth of a Bell with no other magic but enchanting to get a Rose-sized aura."

Permalink

"Heh," says the Joker. "Whaddya say, ladies 'n gentlemen?"

Permalink

"I think we should see if anybody wants a lot of stuff enchanted fast," says Alice.

Permalink

"I've got just the girl in mind," says Queenie.

Permalink

"You think Pattern's gonna want Saturn enchanted instead of wished into behaving like a habitable planet?" asks Amariah. "That's a good idea."

Permalink

"I have those!" beams Queenie.

Permalink

"I imagine Pattern's going to want to do some enchanting herself for her own aura, though."

Permalink

"I don't think she'll have trouble finding channels," says Amariah.

Permalink

"Saturn's a big planet," says the Joker. "And we can visit my old asteroid while we're there!"

Permalink

"Is it a nice asteroid?" inquires Nathan. "As such things go? Pleasant tourist destination?"

Permalink

"Oh, it's a cute little place. You should come see it sometime," he says, hugging Nathan.

Permalink

"Sure, why not." Snuggle snuggle.

Permalink
The Joker cuddles up into Nathan's arms.

Everyone else snuggles a little bit closer, not quite all at once. He closes his eyes and smiles.
