Ducks! Thank you so much for these wonderful machines. I have been able to find so many delicious tidbits. It's simply divine. Look, someone has even seen fit to write a novel about me. Or perhaps about our dear Lady Maccon, but I understand I feature prominently. As well I should.

Now, according to this wonderful website known as "TV Tropes," my world is an example of what is known as Steampunk. Isn't that simply the most darling thing? How dreary to think that your worlds do not have, say, dirigibles, or aethergraphic current. I am terribly sad for you, buttons!

My goodness, I just had the most stunning idea. I don't know why I didn't think of it before! You must all come for a party. My townhouse is more than large enough to accomodate an intimate gathering of just us ducks! Of course, I must insist on proper attire, but I'm sure that is no trouble. Shall we say the 31st of March? I will, of course, send out a more formal invitation in the future, but since this is somewhat short notice, do consider this your 'save the date' card. Of course, I will require some of you to worldhop guests to my location. That won't be a problem, will it?

My goodness, I am aflutter. I will have to commission a new outfit for the occasion!

[ETA: I've updated Lord A's ooc info post on the ball here. Please read it for more info (even if you read it before! Updates at the bottom!) and feel free to ask any questions there.]

A novel? This must be someone's terrible idea of a joke.

[atadflamboyant]

Now, now, my dear! Your exploits are certainly noteworthy!

[allseeingeye]

A party? How fun.

[atadflamboyant]

I do hope you'll enjoy!

[im_wavin]

Oooo Party???

[atadflamboyant]

A party, my -- goodness. What, exactly, are you?

[cravats]

A novel, my lord?

[atadflamboyant]

A novel, Dolly!

you're still here ?

[atadflamboyant]

Gingersnap! I've missed you terribly!

[glass_secret]

Hm, I've heard of Steampunk before, but it never really appealed to me. But still, sounds like fun. Hopefully I won't be too busy by that time.

[atadflamboyant]

It would be splendid to have you, my dear.

[heretocollect]

A party? ...I don't have anything to wear!

[atadflamboyant]

Well. We'll have to change that!

[starofchaos]

My, how kind of you, to invite so many.

If you desire it, I will assist in bringing some of your guests.

[atadflamboyant]

La, that would be wonderful, sir.

[glimmerous_fop]

If I can get away I'll gladly come.

[atadflamboyant]

I do hope you can make it.

[originaldragoon]

Though I have no intention of partaking in such an event, I could help in providing worldhops for your guests.

[atadflamboyant]

That sounds splendid my dear, but I insist you come in for at least a bit of refreshment.

[lanternlooking]

A party sounds like fun!

Um...but what exactly is Steampunk?

[atadflamboyant]

Apparently, madam, I am steampunk. Octopi, I am told, also feature prominently.

[wasabloodknight]

There's a book about you?

[atadflamboyant]

Kitten, can't you read? Not about me. About my dear friend Alexia!

[notasinglelady]

What's the party for, sir?

[atadflamboyant]

Why must it be for a reason, dear?

[p_a_r_a_d_o_x]

TV tropes? I've never hear of that before.

[atadflamboyant]

Try googling it.

[doesitwithtrees]

A townhouse?

[atadflamboyant]

Yes, my dear. Unfortunately a man in my position would have little use for a country estate. Though I suppose the threat of exile would keep the drones in line...

What is a "party"?
