video; un: diva

[colorature]

It's going to be my birthday soon! August fourth, to be exact!

_{[Yes, hello. Sorry Nysa once again for being subjected to Diva. Here she is, the backdrop of her video one of the Nadril caves, (pre-lit thanks to the natives), which wouldn't be anything special if it didn't look so...warm. Diva's wearing nothing more than a simple white dress with blue accents and upon closer inspection at what's behind her there's green growing on the cave floor, along with what looks to be a hardy species of wildflower peeking out from various cracks in the rocky floor.]}

I'm going to be a hundred and seventy...um..._{[Yes, you heard her right.]} a hundred and seventy five? Maybe six or seven? I don't really know exactly but you can't fit that many candles on a cake so does it really matter?

_[Haha.]

Anyway! I found this really warm cave and I want to have a masquerade party in it! My lover helped me barter for food, instruments and even drinks! I also found an old record player with a few records, but I'm not sure how to use it...Surely someone can figure it out, no?

_{[And if you don't believe her - wait for it - she'll show off her hoard of goodies. There are indeed a few crates of food items, bottles of various types of alcohol and even what appears to be an old upright piano and a few acoustic guitars and one or two other unopened instrument cases. There also seems to be a box full of various fancy party masks as well. Yep, she wasn't joking.]}

I need singers, musicians, dancers, cooks, people who can mix drinks and others willing to do some heavy lifting! I have a box of decorations too so if you've an eye for decor I want your assistance as well!

_{[Anyone want to blow up some balloons?]}

You don't have to worry about dressing too fancy and as long as I don't want to kill you you're invited so please do come and RSVP!

_{[ooc: mingle now up!]}

Is it?

_{[That gets a small laugh out of her. Was it really that impressive? Perhaps by human standards it was.]}

What if I require both? What instruments do you play?

[conqueredhearts]

It is! Even with how old I am!

[Of course he laughs again.]

I confess I am best with the instrument of my own voice. Though I am most familiar with the ancient songs of my kingdom. Ah but they are beautiful and full of variety since there were so many cultures represented.

[colorature]

How old are you?

_{[She seems to perk up at the mention he's a singer. She wasn't expecting that.]}

You sing as well? In that case you must sing for me! What was your kingdom called?

[conqueredhearts]

I am well over two thousand now, I should think.

[Spirit stuff. It makes ages all funky.]

Then I shall sing for you! It would be an honor! And my Kingdom began in Macedon where I was born and then I extended it out as far as Persia.

[colorature]

I see. I'm quite young in comparison then.

_{[Practically a babby. Ah, but those are names of places she recognizes.]}

You're a king then, I take it? I've heard of those places before. I'm a queen myself, but I've no kingdom to speak of, just a people.

_{[And then because it makes sense to further introductions with a name-]}

I'm Diva!

[conqueredhearts]

You are but that means so little. You could easily be a grown woman all the same.

[He just laughs now.]

A pleasure to meet a Queen! I am Iskandar! Even if you have no kingdom, it is still an honor.

[colorature]

I am all grown up, or at least as grown as I'll ever get!

_{[Ah, you're flattering her...don't mind her as she puffs up a bit, delighted.]}

Iskandar...I'll be sure to remember your name.

[conqueredhearts]

I imagine so if you have reached this age and still have this beautifully youthful face!

[Here. Let him just flatter more. Though he really does mean it!]

And I will remember your name as well Diva! For I hope for us to be friends.

[colorature]

You flatter me.

_{[Not that she's complaining...keep doing it.]}

As do I. If you're that old though, you can't be human...so what are you?

[conqueredhearts]

I merely speak the truth, I assure you.

[Don't worry. He's very free with compliments.]

I am a Spirit! Though, I once was a human many, many years ago.

[colorature]

So...you're like a ghost?

_{[THAT'S...spooky but also cool?!]}

You're pretty solid for a spirit!

[conqueredhearts]

Something like it. Though I am more the embodiment of my soul! Which is why I am solid!

[colorature]

The embodiment of your soul...that sounds rather complicated.

_{[So she won't...worry too much about it. Yeah.]}

[conqueredhearts]

I suppose it is actually! I really don't think about it that much. I am solid and able to do a great deal and that is good enough for me.

[colorature]

_{[Works for her!]}

I suppose that's all that matters in the end.

[conqueredhearts]

Isn't it? This way I can still have a good time with all of my friends! New and old!
