[constellates]

fairy tale au meme welcome ; one. come up with an au for your character of choice and leave a top-level. royalty, paupers, villains, enchanters and enchanted all welcome! two. tag a friend and come up with a vague storyline and pre-existing cr if you so choose three. pick a prompt and let your story unfold! prompts ; one ♫ once upon a time... do you believe in love at first sight or do you need to walk by again? how does it happen? in a small provincial town, in a land far far away, in a castle's quarters? what does a normal day look like? are you taking care of the horses in a stable when one runs off or do you have an urgent message for the king? is there where a curse is woven or even when one is lifted? what does happen to the frog prince after he gets his legs back? every storybook needs a beginning. two ♫ a winter's ball... or a summer's ball! or a spring's ball! really, there always seems to be a good enough reason for a ball, don't you think? the violins are gently playing, the floor is filled with delight partygoers, and the chandeliers shine bright above you. the classical magic is in there air. are you the royal putting on the ball? a pauper invited and waiting for your chance to meet the monarch in charge? or are you more preoccupied with scavenging what's left of the dessert table? oh these people don't know what they've got until it's gone! three ♫ true love's kiss... or if you'd rather, true love's first hand holding, true love's first admittance, or even the confession? but there can be no confession without a proper setting. is it festival day? is it time for all the lanterns to fill the sky? where's the sweet acoustics and flowers blossoming? don't be afraid to take this step. four ♫ daring swordfights... there has to be something else in there that manages to get your heart pounding. where have your adventures taken you? at the very top of a castle, swords drawn against each other? on a pirate ship with nowhere but the ocean to run? in a chase across the tops of tiled rooftops as you chase after a treasure you've been looking for? are you facing down the stare of an angry dragon, who may or may not be your cursed friend? either way, welcome to the action scene option. en garde!

[Shirayuki isn't a princess, but she is a pharmacist, which means that it's her job to look after the injured. Which means that if Chiaki has quite literally tripped over himself in his infatuation with the prince(ss) (and I mean, who could blame him?) then she's the one who is going to help patch him up.

But she's a little curious as to why he's hurt in the first place. Shouldn't a knight be a little more...capable?]

So...how did this happen again?
