Coronation Ceremony & Gifts

[kaolinandbone]

The gentle but insistent tink-tink-tink of a silver spoon against a teacup carries through the crowd, followed by a clear, confident voice as Lioncourt addresses the gathered guests.

"Ladies, gentlemen, and other various but no less incomparable sentients, the main event of the party will begin shortly. If you have a coronation present for the Lady Lioncourt and have not yet placed on the central table, please do so now: everyone is likewise encouraged to take a seat on one of the benches if they wish to observe the ceremony."

The kobold approaches Lioncourt, smiling quietly and a little misty-eyed. She ignores the crown entirely as she crosses the last few feet, and pauses for a moment in front of the vampire before nudging her forehead gently with her snout. Then, still wordlessly, she takes the crown and places it carefully on Lioncourt's head.

Lioncourt looks up, disbelief flicking across her face for an instant - then joy, pure exhilarated joy. She stands, practically glowing with excitement, the color back in her cheeks.

"... It's a bit tacky to do this myself, but... Long Live The Queen!"

She punches the air, a grin on her face, and hugs Lurker around the shoulders.

"We've had enough doom and gloom. My kingdom now has the best Queen it's ever had, and she wants presents."

She turns to look at the pile of gifts, a mock-contemplative look on her face.

"Let's see, whose gift should I open first...?"

The kobold hugs Lioncourt back, not quite able to contain a giggle, and retreats back into the crowd.
