55 (Mickey's Surprise Party)

[her_mouse_jesty]

[Minnie has purposely turned the Video on today, pausing in her Olivine chores to talk to her friends.]

Hello, everyone! I hope you're all having a magical day! My little home is in tip-top shape again, and it sounds like things are peaceful once more in the land of Johto and Kanto.

Now, the real reason why I'm calling is that thanks to my dear friends Ventus and Xion, I've realized even though I've almost been here for two years, I still haven't told people the real, detailed story of how my darling Mickey and I met! I thought it'd be a nice little story to share.

In my home world, the Disney Kingdom, I was the princess. I was expected to marry another member of royalty, or at least someone with a high status. I also had many knights to protect me and the kingdom... although back then, we called them musketeers. One day, I was nearly killed by a falling safe! I was so frightened that I demanded the Captain of the Musketeers, Pete, to specially assign me bodyguards until I could feel safe again.

So he brought me three musketeers to meet and approve of. First was Donald Duck, who would later became the royal mage. Then it was Goofy, who would later take Pete's place as Captain. Then... the shortest one between them, the most handsome man I'd ever seen in my life, he stepped forward... Our eyes locked, and... and...

[She dreamily sighs, leaning back so far it's really only a miracle she's still standing... And, uh... she appears to have drifted off. You may need to snap her back to reality. For those interested in Action, Minnie was supposed to be sweeping front porch of her home, but got so caught up in reminiscing that she's dancing with her broom, pretending it's her king. Walt the Charizard is napping on the sand nearby.]

Aw, that's so sweet!

[Completely ignoring all the namedropping of famous Disney characters for the moment, because there is LOVE AND ROMANCE to gush over.]

Tha's like a real fairytale romance. Only without th' evil witch or big bad wolf tryin' to eat anyone.

[All spoken in the exact same dreamy sort of tone.]

_{[... Awh. Heather's not much of a romantic, but... well, for Disney characters, she can make an exception. She ate that stuff up when she was little.]}

... Uh... Earth to Minnie! You there?

[her_mouse_jesty]

[That manages to get her attention back, and she giggles.]

Well, there was still a villain in the story... Pete, the Captain of the Musketeers. He wanted to take my throne!

[She stops, as reality slams back into her. Blushing deeply, she giggles as she faces the Pokegear again.]

Oops...

[Normally Lightning wouldn't be interested in a story like that, especially when she's stir crazy after over a month in the Center, but this time it gets her attention. Well. That and there's something a bit more pressing.] Minnie, you're going to fall over if you keep standing like that.

[Video]

[her_mouse_jesty]

Ah - !

[She DOES fall... but thankfully she was close enough to a wall that she doesn't go down, and leans on it.]

... Oops.

[Video]

[soggypastry]

[...yeah why is she not surprised, Mama-Minnie. Really.]

You okay?

[Video]

[her_mouse_jesty]

[She blushes, embarrassed.]

Yes! I was just lost in good memories...

[Video]

[soggypastry]

Maybe you should do that sitting down next time. Hitting your head if you fall isn't going to do you any good.

[Video]

[her_mouse_jesty]

Do I really seem that absent-minded...?

[Aw Mama, dancing with a broom looks fun, but he's totally captivated with this story and wants to know the rest, so he must ask!]

What happened next?

[Video]

[soggypastry]

[Headshake] More distracted than anything. It's easy to lose track of your surroundings when you're remembering things.

[her_mouse_jesty]

[Whoops, hello reality. She stops, blushing.]

Oh! Well... My lady-in-waiting, Daisy, came into the room with some snacks for me. But the boys got a bit overexcited and jumped her, thinking she was trying to attack me with a cheese knife. I managed to correct them before they did any harm, and allowed them to escort me and Daisy as went out to ride in the village. I could see that Donald was easily smitten with Daisy, but that's another story.

[her_mouse_jesty]

i just wanted to strengthen my friendship with everyone by letting them know more about me... I guess one shouldn't do that with chores.

[video]

[ex_aeroga402]

Gosh, sounds like it was destiny then.

[Two romances in one meeting, what are the odds?]

[video]

[her_mouse_jesty]

Yes! Exactly! I knew it was meant to be, for all of us! I told Daisy that when we were in the carriage ride. She tried to dissuade me from pursuing a romance with Mickey, since it was forbidden love... but that just sealed the deal for me~!

[video]

[ex_aeroga402]

How come? I understand love at first sight, but I don't know a whole lot about the rest...

[Video]

[soggypastry]

Not with sweeping, at least. It would probably work better if you'd been cleaning the counters and had something to lean against while you talked.

Re: [video]

[used_trick]

Heh. Betcha ya whooped him good though, right?

[That's how this kind of fairytale goes, after all. As long as it's not set in Gotham.]

[Video]

[foolishwren]

_{[Heather just grins back, in her usual crooked way.]}

That's a real cute first-meeting story.

[video]

[her_mouse_jesty]

It's a little difficult to understand if you've never felt love... but, sometimes... when you're told you can't have something, it just makes you want it even more!

[video]

[her_mouse_jesty]

My darling Mickey did that! I then imprisoned him until I thought he was safe to let out...

[Video]

[her_mouse_jesty]

Does that mean you want me to keep going?

[Video]

[her_mouse_jesty]

Heeheehee! Wasn't it, though? It was so romantic! He was standing tall, saluting, looking so brave and noble...

[vulpesvivus]

Er...are you okay?
