I wish, my wish
The snow had finally been cleared from the room, the window fixed. And the snow outside was slowly following suit. It was still almost painfully cold outside, but the snow was no longer actively falling, and the more adventurous could find ways outside through upper floor windows. There was no way to get to the shore or anything, but there were odd glittering things in the perfect fairytale snow. The first time someone would touch one, it would grow brighter and brighter until the light exploded outward. The shards of light flew into the school mostly, but some went elsewhere, over and past the tangles of stuff.
When the light resolved, it and the other glittering things - both in the snow and now in the school - would prove to be small magic lamps. Each would have the name of one of the Missrecalled currently in Auradon, and a colour scheme that suits that person. It might be the one who picked it up, or someone else. When the person for whom the tiny jewelry sized lamp was for holds the lamp and makes a wish, that wish might come true. For a short time.
The wishes would only last the weekend, but What a glorious and bittersweet weekend that would be.

Should the bats have warned Amu that Morgana was a tall vampire/goth looking bird woman? They didn't feel they had to, but then, their sense of normalcy was a bit warped...
"Mistress would only wish for one thing..."
"Two things, but they are really one."
"A very embarrassing thing."
"It would make her happy, yes yes."
"But also very sad, yes yes."
Mwa ha ha ha

"Two things that are one that would embarrass her, make her happy, and sad?" Su asked, confused.
"Wow, she's one weird duck lady," Yoru said, joining them.
"Duck... lady?" Amu asked.
"Maybe she's like Yaya!" Ran said.
Amu nodded. That made sense.
1/3
Date: 2024-10-30 10:46 am (UTC)It started good. Sensible.
"Besides, I've never wished for anything in my life. And certainly not while I've been here. I'm not a child."
... Then it started going downhill with straight up lies.
"The best thing to do with these lamps is dump them in the ocean. Who knows how they'll interpret anything? What if you fall asleep and sleep-talk-wish utter nonsense? What if two people make a wish that contradicts one another? What if I say 'I wish Drake Mallard was here' and it only-"
Alas, Morgana was so insistent on proving her point that it didn't occur to her the lamp wouldn't wait for her to finish the sentence, nor that it would care about hypotheticals.
or was just sick of her sardonic butt.~*~POOF!~*~
In an explosion of purple smoke and sparkles, there stood a young duck in his thirties, casually waving at the girls, all smiles and sunshine. Utau would recognize him from Morgana's phone... except... was it her imagination, or was he 1) slightly taller, 2) slightly more muscular, and 3) covered in shoujo sparkles like a romance manga?
"Hiya, Morgy!"
".................................."
2/3
Date: 2024-10-30 10:51 am (UTC)Not that Morgana had much dignity to begin with, but.
Well.
"DARLINGDARLINGDARLINGDARLINGDARLINGDARLING-"
Without taking a breath and repeating the pet name, Morgana practically bolted at the image of her sort-of-boyfriend....
3/3
Date: 2024-10-30 10:55 am (UTC)FWUMP!
She'd been running so fast that she wound up face-faulting right into the dirt only a few feet away, one of her steel-toed boots almost flying off at the impact.
"...Wha'happun?"
---
Yeah, pretty much everyone in Auradon could've heard that big 'darling'. Maybe even over on the Isle too.
Hence why the bats stopped mid-hover momentarily with matched sighs and weary expressions, speaking in unison.
"Too late."
Re: 3/3
Date: 2024-10-30 11:00 am (UTC)At the loud sound, Amu and her Charas put on the speed. Yoru followed too, curious.
"Duck person?" Ran asked.
"Duck person," Miki confirmed with a nod.
"Nosu-chara!?" Amu asked, much more alarmed than her Charas. She reared back into a fighting stance. A foot above the ground - if that.
"Now I know I didn't wish for you," Utau snapped, turning to face Amu.

Date: 2024-10-30 02:45 pm (UTC)"Aw, that tickles!"
Another slow blink... and Morgana dropped the lamp onto the ground. Then she began to stomp on it repeatedly and bash it with her guitar.
"LOUSY HUNK OF JUNK! I WANT A REFUND! I DEMAND TO SEE THE MANAGER! WHAT'S THE POINT OF HAVING HIM HERE IF I CAN'T MAKE HIM SO FLUSTERED HE SWALLOWS HIS OWN TONGUE?!"
As this mortifying display continued, Eek and Squeak chose to sit on Utau's head, exhausted by the whole ordeal. Wish!Drake just continued to smile cheerfully, as if nothing about this entire situation was weird at all. "So, are you guys friends of hers?"

Date: 2024-10-30 02:53 pm (UTC)"Nadeshiko wished me here apparently, but Ikuto kidnapped me before I could find out how they got the Embryo!" Amu said, crossing her arms. "I didn't lose track of Ikuto, I escaped him."
"And then promptly got lost trying to find her way back!" Ran said cheerfully, waving her pom poms.
Amu flushed, then turned, nose in the air, refusing to acknowledge that.

Date: 2024-10-30 02:58 pm (UTC)After several more hard stomps and crushes, Morgana returned to the scene of the crime, only now noticing the extra additions. "Oi, Eek, Squeak! You were supposed to go after the cat, and instead you bring me Strawberry Shortcake and the seven dwarves?"
Little squeaks of apology.
"Aw, caskets! I've had it up to here! Every time I try to help out, it burns up in my face. I'm going back to my room."
Wish!Drake just sighed happily. "Gosh, you are so pretty when you're mad."

Date: 2024-10-31 03:05 am (UTC)"No, apparently her people just look like that," Utau said, mildly amused now.
"And she's... kindergarten age?" Amu asked, going by the temper tantrum.
Utau smirked. "Nope. Doing a good impression of it though. Apparently we're supposed to believe she's an adult." Utau couldn't resist poking at Morgana after how all knowing high and mighty she'd been just a few minutes before.

Date: 2024-10-31 08:06 am (UTC)... Definitely not to spend alone time with her ghost-man.
"Nice meeting you!" Wish!Drake chirped before loyally following his (?)girlfriend(?). "You've always been so good with kids, Morgy!"
With a resigned sigh, Eek and Squeak hopped off of Utau's head and began flying after their mistress.
Thank you for the thread!
Date: 2024-11-01 09:49 am (UTC)"Yeah, that's why adults ruin everything," Utau said with a shrug.
Amu nodded. "We'll be different when we grow up."
"No kidding," Utau's snort was probably the last thing Morgana could hear before the distance was too much...
