A strange creature skitters by her, turning to look up at Tiana as it passes by. It's a strange beast with unnaturally blue, velvety skin and wicked-looking red eyes. Two antennae sprout from its head and twitch as if detecting something.
All of a sudden, it snaps its head toward Tiana. The creature doesn't seem to have a mouth, just those two eyes as it starts to skitter toward her.
just what did tiana do in life to warrant this? first it was encountering a frog turned prince , then some heartless , and now this ... this .... whatever this was. ❝ breath tiana , costume party. maybe its just a costume. ❞ she tries to steady herself but her voice is wary and tiana takes a cautious step back , her hands reaching for something , anything but only manage to grab onto air. her eyes widen as the creature moves ever so closer yet she is staring at the grotesque monstrosity with a clear disgust and wariness but also a tinge of curiosity ( was it a some other form of heartless , a conjuring from the shadow man , or something much more horrifying? ): all tiana could do was have her body ease back slowly and hope her heart did not give out on her from the fright. the alleyway is dark but the unsettling redness of its eyes eyes seem to glow with an otherworldly luminescence , only add to the creature’s eerie presence.
the young women's arms move awkwardly , trying her best to keep her composure as the thing seems to change shape. ❝ nope , wrong this definitely ain't no costume. ❞ she murmurs, her voice a bit more steady despite the unsettling sight. the peculiar creature skitters closer, its blue, velvety skin shimmering slightly in the ambient light. tiana takes a moment to assess the situation , tiana's heart quickens ( its the only sound she can hear ): but her expression remains composed (now if the composure is from her courageous heart or flight or fight taking hold she couldn't say ): even so , neither one of her parents raised a coward --- her daddy was a hero and her mama always told her that she was her daddy's daughter alright.
❝ now look here i refuse to have any more weird hoodoo voodoo mess up anymore of my night. so ... so-- ❞ it was then that she spotted a branch and rushed to pick it up , never taking brown eyes off red. taking up a defensive stance , tiana tries her best to harden her resolve given the circumstances , even the greats had to fake it at some point , right?her hands tighten around the branch , cause the skin on her palms to turn white. watching the creature’s antennae twitch, trying to gauge its mood and intentions. ❝ i will use this , i will so just stay back if ya know what's good for ya. ❞

"Hauh. It's so loud here. Hey, uh, ma'am, do you have a spot in here that isn't... a concert?"
no matter how many times tiana was enveloped in the sounds of the lively jazz band played from the stage in the main dining room , it sent a jolt of excitement in each of her steps as she waltzed from guest to guest personally welcoming every patron to the physical embodiment of her dream come true. every table was covered in bright , patterned tablecloths ( made from only the finest fabrics royal money could buy ): and each one is festooned with a small centerpiece of mini Mardi Gras masks and beads. tiana's palace was a love letter to everything she held dear: i. the dream her and her daddy shared that was finally made real , ii. the unique culture that was the southern creole of crescent city louisiana , and iii. what put new orleans on the map : mardi gras. every piece of decor has been carefully selected by yours truly ( with added opinions from naveen and her mama naturally ): every piece of space was filled with the finest artworks , the stage adorned with colorful twinkling lights, and the people in elaborate feathered masks. every wall was decked out in festive green , purple , and gold decorations ( featuring intricate murals of past mardi gras parades and masked revelers ): but it wasn't just the live venue that had folks from all matters of creed and color coming , no. the true star of tiana's palace was her food.
creole cuisine was the kind of meal that stuck to one's ribs , made them feel the love and labor with every bite. the scents of cajun spices and fresh seafood filled the air , mingling with the sweet aroma of pralines and beignets , drizzled with a house made vanilla caramel honey it was her most renowned dessert for a reason. between the sights and sounds of clientele engaged in animated conversation, their laughter , slightly , rising above the music as they enjoy their meals. truly , a marvel to behold. but , as tiana is walking further away from the stage , a young boy grabs the hemline of her dress , his face is turned buried into the nook of his shoulder blade , seemingly , trying to silence the music of the roaring twenties. she is taken aback by his words tiana would've never guessed one could be a guest of her restaurant and find what made new orleans well new orleans unwelcoming. ❝ well suga its mardi gras season , won't find too many places all quiet like down norlins. now , how someone like yaself find ya way to tiana's without wantin' all this fuss about? ❞ she asks but it isn't so much a question as a statement. new orleans was her home --- the bread and butter of both her livelihood and dreams. still this waitress turned ceo and princess was always willing to help someone in need , no matter how small nor grand. if its one thing her parents instilled in her from a young age is doing onto others as one would themselves. ❝ come on honey bun, ❞ she extends her hand waiting for the male to take it. ❝ might not be the most comfortable seat in da house but it will be a lot softa on dem ears. oh and if ya hungry i got just the thang , no concert needed. ❞
