“ I’m just a little birthday boy, you’d give me the funny three numbers at the back of your parent’s credit card as they merrily slumbered to me, the lil birthday boy, it’d be something I truly enjoyed c’maaaah. ”

     Wortox snickered at the mime’s signs, pretending to take a sip from the empty cup he’d nabbed earlier   ( he had no intentions of upsetting his insides for the poison mortals considered a delicacy, no siree! ).   He’d been expecting something more flashy when he’d first heard of this quaint event. The few parties he’d seen and attended in past   ( though rarely invited )  had always been so colorful and loud! Still, it truly did seem as though his mortal companions seemed to prefer it simple. What a terrible shame.

“ Tu n'es pas drôle, mon cher ami! ”   he playfully complained, tsking with a wave of his claw,   “ Besides! I quite assure you that our most lovely of queen’s has nothing on me, that indeed I’ll guarantee! I, for one, think we could use some more excitement to brighten us all within our confinement. ” 

     His words were truth, but he knew that, ultimately, he wouldn’t do anything too drastic if it upset his friends. Carelessly, he dropped the empty cup onto a nearby table and with a twirl, Wortox draped an arm across Wes’ shoulder after their little display. 

“ A dance you say? Dance, dance, dance our sorrows away! I like the way you think indeed, but are you sure you could keep up with little ol’ me in lead? Hyuyu! ”

“ Itsy Bitsy Spider! ”

     Wortox shouted from outskirts of camp, waving a claw wildly in the air before appearing closer to Webber in a cloud of red. A wide, toothy grin on his face that promised nothing but mischief. 

“ My, my, It feels like it’s been quite some time! Why, do my eyes deceive or is it the truth that I perceive? Have you gotten taller, little crawler? ”

    He couldn’t recall how long it had been since he last saw the spiderling. Keeping track of time had never been of his interest, really, and in the end what did it matter if it’d been hours days or years? It would always be a delight to catch up with friends. 

     ...Especially with the pranks he’s been brewing in his mind.

     Wortox, for one, merely snickered as the lights went out, perfectly calm with a smile as things started to change. How strange!

     Why, even the Queen herself seemed surprised by this change! Was this the work of those in disguise? With Their plentiful eyes? The ones he’d heard so much of throughout his travels? He had a feeling this was a mystery that was yet to unravel! 

     How very strange indeed.

     In the distance he heard ol’ Krampus’ hearty laughter, even fainter the cries of his nearly forgotten mother. Well, that's not a very nice prank to pull! Alas for Them, he’d long come to terms with his past. Still, he waved merrily to the shadows with a toothy grin before turning his back and returning to his mortal companions.

     While he had been anticipating something more interesting than a simple ball, and quite interesting indeed this would be, he would hate if things were to end in needless bloodshed. He’d rather been enjoying his time frolicking with others, thank you very kindly.

     But still, how strange, how interesting, how wonderfully intriguing!

Constant Ball prompts – accepting!   [ @cease-starvation​ ]

“ Hyuyu! ”

     Wortox snickered at the mime’s concern, perched on top a chest he kicked his legs and stretched out languidly without a care in the world. The whole ball ordeal had made him considerably cheery. Finally! Something delightful to look forward to within this odd, odd world.

     Quite a shame that his dear companion seemed to hesitant to agree with him.

“ Oh my, rest assured that you’ll be quite alright throughout the long night! ”   he sing-songed, “ I simply cannot foresee that our dear and lovely Queen would wish to ruin her own ball with such a massive brawl. ”

     ...though it would be a fairly amusing prank to pull, one that he would probably consider if he were the one in charge.

“ But! Even if that were the case, ”   he winked, giving them a smile full of teeth that would’ve seem the furthest thing from reliable to anyone else,   “ You’ve got ol’ Wortox to get you out of the place. ”

“ How much wood would a moose and goose bring if a goose and moose could bring their flocks and herds and friends hither and thither? Would the geese and meese merrily join hands or would the geese fly away and leave behind the meese to have naught but themselves for company ? ”

     Despite being the one to bring hither the odd little device, in finding it again he was not as precise.

     Wortox hummed nonchalantly, tapping his chin at thought at the question. A bit rude he found it, but he was willing to let himself apart of this bit. In the end, he merely shrugged and see-sawed his claws.

“ It’s never a fun prank to be had, seeing your companion perish, quite sad. ”   He dragged a sigh,   “ But death is the inevitable end to be had, if i stopped to think about it, hyuyu! I’d be driven quite mad! ”

     He snickered, if only because he was already a bit loony. But it was the truth, for once, he must say. Not to mention he’d already failed to save... He’d seen so many lives lost in his time, caused some and thrives off of it, even. It was his curse to bare, in the end.

“ Truly is a sad sad truth, mortals are so awfully vulnerable, aren’t they? ”   he murmured, mostly to himself,   “ Worse so when they refuse to let me help. ”
