Gregory floated before the Lumpy Space King/Queen, his arms crossed and rolling his eyes. "Now, Gregory," the King began, "It is of the utmost importance that these letters be delivered tonight, so no dilly-dallying!" Gregory mumbled and took the envelopes, flying from the room. He read the first envelope. "Grass Princess..." He mumbled as he sped down toward Ooo. "I'll have this done in no time."

Grass Princess
11/3/2012 04:30:59 am
Grass Princess was starting off her day as usual- taking a walk in the meadows just outside her castle. Her long hair was held back in a single braid that ended in a curl. Long blades of grass and buttercups were weaved into the braid. She wore a crown of the sturdiest grass in her part of Ooo, the gem within a spring colored green. Grass Princess sat down in the grass and started to weave herself a basket. Weaving was one of her specialties- it was also a way to pass the time. Later she'd give this basket to one of her Grass Subjects to use as a house of some sort. Grass Subjects grew quickly- they have to have new homes made for them very often- but this is a different subject, and will be described in more detail later on. A subtle glow surrounded Grass Princess's finger tips and the grass around her began to grow. At the same time several blades of grass were removed from the ground instantly replaced by a new blade quickly growing in it's place. Floating long blades of grass bent in the air glowing the same as Grass Princess's fingers. The blades criss-crossed over themselves and soon a perfect little basket- house was made. "That's good. Little Sprout is certain to love this one!" she thought, smiling. The glow from her fingertips stopped and the little house fell into her hands. She got up and whistled a little tune. In a moment, a small grass subject appeared in front of her. Grass Princess presented the basket house she had made. "How do you like this house, Little Sprout?" She said. 'Little Sprout' looked up at her with big eyes. " For me?" He said, in a small voice, "Oh, thank you, My Princess!". Grass Princess smiled. "Anything for my subjects" She then turned away from him and began walking back to her castle. The mail would be here at any moment! She was looking forward to that package from the candy kingdom. She had ordered a candy to fertilize some Sweet Grass....

Gregory was accelerating down to the land of Ooo, the wind pushing against him as he went into a nosedive. His lips flapped as he went faster and faster, his eyes and skin turning raw. Once again, he felt absolutely alive. Lumpy Space was far above the land of Ooo, but Gregory could make it down faster than anyone else. Soon, however, the moment of pure bliss was over, as he turned a quick loop, hovering above the ground. He moved his lump-hat, which had relocated itself to his lower back, onto his head. Long grass and beautiful flowers were planted beneath him, trees with fruit of all kinds surrounding him. A babbling brook crossed the Grass Kingdom, and Gregory unnecessarily crossed the nearby bridge. The Grass Castle stood before him, dozens of trees twisting into each other, forming towers and buttresses. He approached the tree-fort, but noticed a young girl, covered in leaves, wearing a grass crown. "Letter for the Grass Princess?"

Letter from the Lumpy Space King
11/3/2012 05:04:55 am
"Dear Grass Princess," the letter began, "The Lumpy Space King and Queen cordially invite you to the annual Lumpy Space Ball, in 3 days at the Lumpy Space High School Auditorium, which you will attend as both a guest and as a royal diplomat for the Grass Kingdom. As I'm sure you've noticed, tensions have begun to rise between the Kingdoms of Ice and Fire, and we hope this Ball will help ease the situation. As such, we would greatly appreciate your help in mediating the situation. You may bring any guests you may like, but given the nature of the Fire King, it would likely be ill-advised to bring any grass people with you. Sincerely, LSKQ." Attached to the letter is a key with a red buttons. "PS. You'll probably need a form of transportation. Press the button on the key, and a Lumpy Space Car will appear."

"Thank you-" A grass person tugged on her dress. Grass Princess bent down to hear what he had to say. The Grass Person whispered something into her ear and she got up, nodding acknowledgly. She turned to the LSPerson. "Would you like to join us for tea?"

"Sure," Gregory agreed, with some hesitation, "I could go for some tea." He was certain he could get the other letters delivered on time. They walked or floated into the castle together, and sat in the dining room. A group of chefs soon brought them some tea. "Nice place you have here," Gregory said, pressing the moon symbol on his hat so he could properly sit. He began to sip at the tea, which was surprisingly good considering the grass blades and flowers floating in it.

Grass Princess waved goodbye "It was nice meeting you too Gregory!" When Gregory left the room, Grass Princess took back out the invitation. Three days.... Of course she would attend. Parties were fun. And she'd never been to Lumpy Space before. She whistled a tune and a Grass Person that looked of a daisy entered the room. " Daisy, In three days I will be going to the Lumpy Space Ball. " She took a final sip of her tea. " I know the kingdom will be fine while I'm gone, but I'm putting you in charge until I return. " she stood up. "I need a dress for the Ball!" She looked at daisy. "We have three days to finish it."

Gregory looked into his bag at the next letter he needed to deliver. This one was addressed to Billy the Adventurer, but there was no address. He figured there wouldn't be any real way to deliver mail to an adventurer. Attached to the envelope was a note. "Gregory," the note began, "Normally it would be hard to track down an esteemed adventurer like Billy, but there happens to be a meeting at the Adventurer's Hall tonight. He's almost certain to be there, he won't be able to resist the amount of quests. LSKQ." Gregory flew his way towards the Desert Lands, where nomadic adventurers chose to gather.

Billy nodded, and Gregory handed him the letter. Billy pored over it. "What exactly ith the meaning of thith?" Gregory raised an eyebrow. "Uh, well, there's a Ball in Lumpy Space, meant to keep the Fire and Ice Kingdoms from going to war? The fate of Ooo sort of rests in the balance?" Billy pondered this for a moment. "Thorry, but we have much more important busineth to attend to. This just doesn't sound very important. Now, if you'll excuthe us..." Billy turned to leave when Luke spoke up.

He thought it had something to do with his dormant magical energy as a Lumpy Space Person. Her magic seemed to come from a similar source.

"Thank you, Daisy" Grass Princess began down the path that Daisy was going to walk to the Grass Tailor's.

"Of course you're coming, silly! Not only are you my most trusted assistant, you are capable of being the most charismatic of cookies the world has ever known! I know sometimes your candies may seem like a burden, but in truth they are a great asset." Cotton Candy Princess knelt down next to Roy, stroking his head. "I'm sure soon, you'll come to see just how useful they can be. Maybe even at the Ball!" Cotton Candy Princess stood up, clutching the letter to her heart.

Grass Princess stood in front of the door to the Grass Tailor's and knocked on the door.

Zelhara arrived on front of a low-hanging cloud, in front of what appeared to be a door made of clouds. "Welcome home~" she sang, throwing her bag to the ground. A very peeved Ivan stalked out of the leather satchel, glaring at the Nymph. Zel paid no mind, though, for she was busy looking through her fog-closet. She pulled out a schoolgirl like outfit, along with a pair of black shorts.
"Hey Ivan," she called, turning to her trusty friend, "do you think this will be fine to keep watch in?"

Giggling, Zelhara pat Ivan on his head. "To make sure the Ice King and the Fire King don't get into a fight, silly! That would cause a lot of bad shizz to go down." She pat the uniform down, stopping when her hand hit something in the skirt pocket. Pulling it out, Zel smiled. 'Ah, my old locket.... Good memories with this." She sighed nostalgically, smiling widely.

Ivan, on the other hand, sighed out of exasperation. "I suppose there will be no stopping you from giving needless exposition, since I already know it all?" Ivan hunkered down and prepared himself to listen to this tale again.

Sighing nostalgically, Zelhara sat on her bed with a soft grin. "Ah, my nymphet days. When I was younger- oh, I dunno, a lot younger- I still lived up in Lumpy Space land. It was only suiting of a Celestial Nymph, wasn't it? Well, I still lived with my mom- dad was out of the picture, 'cause he was being <i>awesome</i> and serving some kingdom- and my older sister. My mom, well, she taught me a lot about healing and stuff. She taught me everything I know. How to sword fight, how to manifest the power of the stars and Lumpy Space into magic, how to do all of it.
"My older sister was close with a couple princesses, so she always knew what was going on. We had a good life. And then I had my first battle. Do you remember who that battle was against? It was a very headstrong, Russian person that stole my locket and tried to horde it with the rest of its belongings~"

Zelhara let out a short giggle. "It was my now very best friend, Ivan~" she sang. As she clutched the locket, Zel pat the ferret on the head. "And that battle was the reason I started adventuring in the first place! It was so fun to go and look for my locket! Then I had to 'fight,'" Zel air quotes, "for it!"

Grass Princess' knocks were answered as the door was opened and she was swept inside. A thin green dryad with red tulip petals for hair began watering Grass Princess' own leaves, rubbing a fertilizing shampoo into her scalp. "Grass Princess, how wonderful to see you again." An stockier Ent with vibrant orange leaves falling around his shoulders approached the princess.

Fall Fashion sighed, as he turned toward the racks of clothing he had around his shop. "Spring Line, be sure to replenish her wax coating. Make it nice and glossy for the Princess!" The dryad quickly wheeled GP over to a massage table, where a tall, bulky ent strapped her down. Spring Line washed her hands as the ent poured a warm waxy solution on GP's back. Spring Line quickly began kneading Grass Princess' shoulders, working the wax into her skin. As Spring Line worked, Fall Fashion approached GP with a selection of dresses; A long purple dress with tulip sleeves, a pink top with a large pink rose hoop skirt, and a short red dress, with creeping vines acting as both a design element and as the dress' straps. "Tell me, Princess, which do you prefer?"

"Good choice, good choice. Now, what to do for 3 days... Hmm..." Fall Fashion stood there contemplating for 3 days.
Meanwhile, Gregory went through several trials and tribulations in order to deliver invitations to the Fire Count and the Ice King. Interesting things almost certainly happened, but we don't really have time for all of that. If any retcons are ever necessary, perhaps a flashback would be in order. Also, everyone easily found their way to Lumpy Space on the day of the Ball. Dressed in a red vest and fez, Gregory acted as the valet for the event.

Leaning against a well place column, Zel's eyes scanned the crowd for any sign of a fight. Her 'date' sat over her shoulder, his own eyes locked on Ice King.
"See anything, moim domashnim zhivotnym?" Ivan asked, cocking his head to look at the ashed-skin girl.
Zelhara shook her head 'no', eyes drooping. "I was expecting battles and a chance to test out my abilities... But instead I get to watch some really bad dancing and two kings passively threaten to kill each other," she sighed.
Ivan let out a short laugh. "You have to wait, domashneye zhivotnoye!"
Zel sighed again, "Waiting suuucks."

Outside Lumpy High, Gregory was parking cars as celebrities, politicians, and nobles in fancy clothing showed up for the Ball. "I can't believe the King asked me to be a valet. I really shouldn't have bothered asking to attend this thing." Gregory said, sighing.
Gregory was bored out of his mind as he greeted the stuffy guests shuffling into the auditorium. He was almost at his wit's end when he saw a familiar face in the next car.

Zelhara pushes away from her spot, huffing. She turns towards the entrance, Ivan on her shoulder, and pushes her way towards it. "Are you leaving?" Ivan asked the Nymph. Zel shook her head.
"Just need some air, Ivs," she responded dryly. "I'm about to die from boredom. As Zel makes her way out, she sees Gregory and, in a fit of boredom, she runs over to him and hugs him. She effectively pushed him away from the car he was opening. "Greeeeeeegooooooory!" she whined. "It's so boring in there!"

Gregory stared at the girl embracing him. "Oh, you." Gregory blew his hair out of his eyes with a puff of air, glowering down at Zel. Gregory began chuckling. Sometimes, this whole Lumpy Space attitude was just too much. Gregory ruffled the nymph's hair. "Bored, are you? Well the fun is about to begin, now that the others are here!" Gregory gestured back to the car.
