Take Back the Crown


Lilith laughed and took the bread from her head and took a bite. "Y'know just because they look fun to bother, doesn't mean you should." She said, grabbing a pastry and doing the same thing. Just placing it onto his head. She crossed her arms and chuckled.


@Danika


Lucas grabbed a pastry plate and ran around the room, throwing it at random folks. His laugh filled the room, as he threw a jelly pastry at the tall man, Yaroslav. He turned and threw another one at Oceana.


@Lo Alyssa @OlKaJa77
 

Yaroslav felt a pastry hit the back of his head and he whipped his head around to see Lucas laughing, betrayal!


"Young prince," the man knelt before him, "I do not wish you as an enemy. Let us form a peace treaty." He said, scooping the child up and setting him upon his broad shoulders.



Hjalmar was expertly dodging throws, but there were so many people in the room, it was a useless endeavor. He was still drenched in all sorts of beverages and foods. Two tomatoes hit him in the chest, and he purposefully fell to the floor, groaning and chocking as if it was a stab to the heart. He pulled on the princesses leg, "Princess," he gasped for breath, clutching the red stain on his shirt, "I've been hit." He sputtered, trying not to smile, "I-I'm dying, There's-" He lifted his tomato stained hand, "so much blood..." He looked into the distance, "I-I can s-s-see a light."











While chaos broke loose in the dining hall, Svetlana smiled and calmly sipped her mead. Not even moving her hands to block the food catapulting towards her, a shield of magic did that for her. If she got involved, she would be perfectly capable of ending it. But she thought she'd let them have this at the very least.

 

Lucasta knelt beside Hjalmar, and decided to play along. "No, Hjalmar!" She clenched his shirt, desperately. "Don't go into the light! Stay with meeee!" She whined, lifting her right hand up to her forehead, dramatically. "Don't die on me!"


Lucas smirked and giggled. "Alright then. But you have th run around the room, so I can at least hit everyone with these pastries. Deal?" He asked.






@Lo Alyssa
 
The elf felt the pastry hit her thigh, and dodged another fling of mashed potatoes.


Still, she decided on another target; a certain fluffy-haired man down and across the table.


She picked up a round ball of strange, sticky grain and flung it at a dwarf nearby. It spattered open; smudgy mass of grain bursting forth to release a dark chocolate cream inside.


The elf maiden grinned sinisterly.


Perfect.


Oceana grabbed the entire plate and proceeded to fling them at Alo as she yelled,


"This. Is. For your earlier. impudence! You. Mangy-haired. Human. Cretin!"


With each phrase the elf chucked another strange dwarven dessert with deadly accuracy, all of them flying straight for Alo.


@Danika
 
Alo shrieked. "I donnae know what you're talking about!!" He yelled snarkily and ducked a little bit. Then he hugged Lilith's legs out of pure fright. "LILITH HELP ME PLEASE. HELP. SHE'S GOING TO KILL ME WITH FOOD!!!"


@OlKaJa77 @Queen of Fantasy
 
Oceana was about to throw her last ball of goo when she slipped on a stray puddle of gravy.


"Ahhhhhgh!"


She cried as she fell, the dessert she was holding splat right on her right eye, leaking chocolate across her nose.


"Ugh" she groaned from the floor, starting to feel the fatigue that she had accumulated during the day.


I'm gonna get attacked with so much food, she thought in dismay


closing her eyes.


And yet, a part of her was fine with just lying there, covered in sauce and feeling potato in places potato shouldn't be.


She didn't even bother removing the sticky grain ball from her face.
 
Alo turned around a bit. Then he saw she was on the floor. He started laughing loudly and threw a roll at her.


@OlKaJa77


Valeiah was still under the table. It was so peaceful under there. No food was hitting her, only little scraps. She was just able to enjoy her food without having to defend herself.
 
Lilith laughed through the entire scene. "Oh gosh. This is quite the amusement." She chuckled. "Get up, Alo." She said, grabbing the collar to his shirt and pulling him onto his feet. "And don' you dare mock her, you ignoramus." She shoved a pie into his face, staining a red/purple juice on his face.
 
Bo stayed at Phaedra's side, throwing whatever food he could find within reach at the dwarves surrounding him, and his eyes caught sight of Yaroslav parading around with little Lucas atop his shoulders. What a great idea! There was a way to use his height to his advantage! It wouldn't spare him from getting food on himself, but perhaps if someone sat atop his shoulders, they could pelt food at people below from above...


He looked down at Phaedra, noticing that she was now just as messy as he was, his mind quickly piecing together a plan. Maybe with her air-manipulating abilities, she could pelt food at people more easily from above! He grabbed a plate and blocked a fruit that was about to hit her, then turned her around. "Wanna hop atop my shoulders? It might give you a better vantage point to hit people!" He suggested, excitement rising in his voice. He just wanted to step over people with a good excuse, honestly. But seeing people smothered - splat, a tomato hit his face (he flicked most of it off) - with food was good too.



@TeeKay
 
(Dang my laptop broke and I had so much to catch up on haha)


Thora had had her fair share of food fights and had hidden under the table from the moment it started. She wasn't afraid. Oh no. She was born for this.


Maybe it was the dwarven nostalgia or maybe it was the playful atmosphere from her youth, but she couldn't hide her inner nymph tendencies any longer. And she was going to win this food fight.


Betrayals and teamwork were a good enough distraction for her to devise her plan. Hiding under the table saved her from getting hit but oh did it put her right where she needed to be.


As food hit the bodies (often unsuspecting) they would crash to the ground in a crumby, gooey mess. The nymph scooped up all the food that touched the floor. It took some time but she finally had the ammunition she needed.


She rolled out from under the table and leapt on top of the wooden surface, her dress bunched in her hands. Without a single word, but a devilish look in her eye. She spun quickly in circles and let go of her skirt. All of the food she had collected went spiraling through the air. She had collected every bit of food and stored it in her skirt. After so many food fights with her sisters, she had learned to let them weaken themselves before taking them all out collectively. The best way to get them all at once was to spin around and let the food soar.


@ everyone
 
Alo was actually okay with the pie on his face. At least it tasted good. "It's just some playful teasing." He said. "Not actually making fun of her. I don't do that. It's against my code." He was lying.


@Queen of Fantasy
 

"Alo, we all know you don't have a code." She chuckled. Suddenly a pile of food hit her from behind, and knocked her over. She looked behind her to see Thora, who was responsible for the food attack. She jumped up, taking another pie, and throwing it in her direction.





@Danika @plasticlizard022
 
Alo ducked behind Lilith. Human shield. Valeiah, from under the table, used a spoon to flick some of her mashed potatoes at her brother. It wasn't much of a loss, since she still had a whole plate of them. He turned around to look at her. Betrayed? By his own sister?


@Queen of Magic
 
She wanted to call it instinct or practice or even fate, but really the only reason Thora hadn't been hit by the princess's pie was because she had ducked to grab more food. She watched the pie soared past where she has just been standing. She stood slowly and turned to look at the princess. How foolish Lucasta had been to make an enemy as skilled as she. She scooped up a mix of mashed and boiled potatos and began lobbing them


@Queen of Fantasy
 

Phaedra was shocked to be suddenly turned around, not expecting Bo's hand on her shoulder. She gave a wicked grin and nodded enthusiastically.

"Woe upon those who think they can win against us!"

She paused for a moment, staring up at Bo. She flushed slightly. He was definitely going to have to pick her up - how embarrassing. Phaedra had the energy to throw negligible amounts of weight, but to hoist herself up on his shoulders? She got a headache thinking about trying.

"Uhhh.. could you, uh..?"

She raised her arms up pathetically, hoping he would get the hint.

As soon as Bo consented to placing her upon his shoulders, she would create a small scale tornado that would travel up the dining table - throwing massive quantities of food at everyone. It wasn't a strong enough force of air to throw everything, but mostly soups, sauces, rolls, and sliced roasts and the like. Nothing too dense would be moved by the air that Phaedra manipulated. She wanted to coat everyone else in food much like Yaroslav had at first - not launch a full on attack.. not that she had the capability to do so now anyway.

Hjalmar flushed a bit at the princess' touch, but he managed to hide it well enough, "But it's s-s-so... beautiful." He gagged dramatically and made his body go limp as if he died.











"As you wish." Yaroslav chuckled as he heaved Lucas up onto his shoulders, using his magic to cast food at random targets around the room. He laughed, seeing his grandmother carry on with her dinner as if the room was peaceful and clean.

 

Lucas cheered, as he threw piles of pastries at random opponents. "Faster!" He giggled, and tried throwing a pastry at Svetlana, but missed her entirely. "Dang.." He sighed, but continued to swing away, anyways.


Lucasta was hit multiple times by Thora, but instead of throwing something back, she continued to act with Hjalmar. She dropped Hjalmar's limp body onto the floor, and raised her hands in desperation. "Nooooooo!!!!" She yelled, trying to sound fake so no one was alarmed. She stood up, fists clenched and turned toward the group. "See what your war has brought upon us. I shall have my revenge!" She yelled, and quickly climbed onto the table. Being hit so many times with food and ale, her long silky hair was filled with food and sauces and soups. "You shall pay!!" She yelled, then whipped her hair back and forth
(ah hee hee.) and managed to hit everyone with the messy food.


@Lo Alyssa @plasticlizard022
 
"Yeah! Of course!" He smiled, picking her up from her waist and lifting her above his shoulders with a grunt. "I'll hold ya steady while you do the windy thing!" He yelled, holding her legs so she wouldn't fall off, and her arms were free since she didn't have to hold on.


He stood proudly, practically beaming. For some reason, with Phaedra on his shoulders he felt even taller, and it was amazing. He restrained from jumping up and down and instead began to step over people - literally - with his long legs, kicking up food that was piling on the ground and launching it into people's faces with his feet. "HA haH." This was so much fun.



@TeeKay
 
Now Valeiah was getting hit by food because Bo would occasionally hit it under the table. She screamed. "OKAY, BO! STOP PLEASE YOURE GETTING FOOD ON ME I DID NOT SIGN UP FOR THIS. I JUST WANT TO BE LEFT UNDER THE TABLE IN PEACE." She covered her face.


@soundofmind
 
Bo stopped, wide-eyed as he heard Valeiah shout his name. He stepped away from the table, tilting his head slightly to get a look underneath. He sent Valeiah an apologetic smile. "Oh! Sorry!" He noted to make sure to kick elsewhere. He wanted to have fun making a mess, but he didn't want to make anyone unhappy, muc less get on anyone's bad side.


@Danika
 
Valeiah let out a relieved sigh and shoved another spoonful of mashed potatoes into her mouth. She then realized she probably should've thanked him before stuffing her face.


"Thank you!" She meant to say. But what really came out of her mouth was a "Fan oo."





And some potatoes.

"UR WEL cHUM." He said, imitating her jokingly before turning away so he could run around, away from her, and not having to worry about getting food on her.




He laughed and kicked up a splatter of potatoes up onto a dwarf, realizing it was the one who'd caught the roll he'd thrown earlier in her mouth. She looked up at him with a mischievous grin and grabbed a roll off of the table (they were few in number now, that people had thrown many of them) and threw it up at his face. NOW IS MY SHINING MOMENT. Keeping his upper body upright for Phaedra, he squatted just a little bit and caught it with his teeth. He bit into it with a smile and the female dwarf laughed, throwing a slice of pie, hitting him in the face. He shook his head to get it off, spitting out the roll in the process and chewing on the bite he'd taken out of it.
 

Having finished her food and feeling quite anxious to get into a steamy bath, Svetlana slowly rose from her seat. Her eyes were closed, and when she finally opened them, she paused for affect. Only slightly lifting her hands, she elevated every morsel from the floor and the table, even the crumbs. She flicked her wrists, and the food flew into different random targets across the room. She made sure to get the ones hiding under the table too.


Her head whipped back in wicked laughter, which made her really
sound like a witch. She wiped a tear away from her eye, "I think we all need baths now." She chuckled and headed towards the door that led back to Sverrir's home.


Yaroslav wasn't far behind his grandmother, only slightly disappointed that the fight had to be done. He had Lucas on his shoulders, the lad still clutching to a pastry.



"Psst." The man tried to get his attention, "One last shot." He whispered, "Make it good, and choose your target wisely." He said with a smirk.





@Queen of Fantasy (and @ everyone)
 
Lucas nodded at his large friend, and scanned the room. He really, really wanted to try and hit Phaedra, who was also riding on the shoulders of Bo. He smirked and whispered the target to Yaro. He took a pastry in hand, and once close enough, threw it directly towards her face.
