☽ ostara prism | event w/ jade & illya ☾

✧ Marked with the delicate change of the once barren trees, it had now been a full year since Desirée had returned to Earthland from the three years that she had spent waging the apex of the interdimensional war within the crystalline atmosphere. This year's winter months felt much longer than she had remembered them being, even if the frosted chills that gusted across the horizon were just as ordinary as they ever had been within the earliest months of the year- there were no seasons within the holy realm of Chrysalis, and though that was quite the change of pace in itself, getting used to the seemingly endless expanse of her native world and its constant changes once again was starting to get more and more simple for the reigning pink diamond. Though bearing the crown of queendom had quite the charm on its own, there was something special about the way the world of magecraft existed to her- she had a soft spot for the world she was born within and both it's magical and mundane properties, something nothing could change.

Aware of  the one-year anniversary of her descent back into the world's fluffy white clouds from the cosmos above being today, the guildmistress of roses found herself within the streets of Oak Town to celebrate her many blessings that had manifested into existence within the past year, originally something she wished to do in solitude. However, upon her arrival, it became clear to Desirée that now would be anything but the time to reflect upon these magnificent accomplishments alone- there was a spring festival bustling within the town of ethereal legends, an opportunity in itself that she would be unable to pass up. Parties were one of the idol's favorite events to attend, especially those that would involve communities of mages coming together peacefully in order to achieve elation.

Making an appearance at a spring festival like this one felt like destiny to the pink-haired songstress. During the nighttime prior Desirée had released a new single produced entirely through the crystalline resonance and wavering lights she was capable of refracting out of her demon slayer lacrima- it was known to the world as Ostara Prism, and though the song did not consist of lyrical artistry like most of her songs would in some ways, she felt as though it would be a stellar anthem to lead the delicate blossoms of spring across Earthland and beyond (link under post header image ♡).  It seemed to be doing well upon Fiore's newest music charts, currently ranked at a three- an appearance at a festival like this would be an opportunity to further promote her newest spectacle of magical composition by song and slayer magic. Nevertheless, before she would make an explicit appearance in the crowds, she wished to accomplish the one thing she came to the town to do. To reflect on the past and the future that was yet to come.

Sitting upon one of the largest statues that lined the curved stone roads of the town of trees, the guildmistress would find her legs dangling off the side of the statue as she would begin to paint away at the surface of an egg with an art set that had been given to her upon her arrival at the town's gates, delving into her own thoughts. The statue that she had found herself within the grasp of, quite literally as she had been sitting upon its cupped hands in all of her lustrous glory, was a depiction of one of the first to hold the title of a Wizard Saint. This was one of the many individuals that the demon slayer had looked up to that had been from the surface of the planet- it was the pink-haired girl's biggest aspiration to become a God of Ishgar one day, and though it did not seem as though that day would come soon as she still had many things to master within her endeavors, she did not feel as though the title would be impossible to conquer one day if she worked hard enough. Desirée wished to be reputably known for more than just her decade of musical experience- she wished to be known to be one of Earthland's ethereal success stories in relation to magical skill, something she would never cease to seek out again. It had been almost five years since she had been named a Rising Star- and so much had changed since then, it didn't even feel fully real to her. Her life had been a dream come true, and though dreams were always accompanied by looming nightmares, it felt as if it had been quite some time since she felt the dread she had felt in years past. Though the war was raging on across the borders, life was finally beginning to feel comfortable and at ease.

"All finished~! ♡" the guildmistress would exclaim to her companions that would lay together scattered about within her lap, "what do you guys think? Too pink? ✰"

Holding her hand outward in front of her gaze, which would be accompanied by the fluctuating beams of light that would cascade outward from the galaxy diamond upon her forehead, she would show the bioluminescents and her crystalline beast the finished egg that she had decorated within her temporary solitude upon the statue's heights. It would appear to resemble an egg from one of the species of fauna that lived within the crystal realm's cosmic lands- it was to look like that of a gemstone serpent egg, looking to form geometrical shapes on the sides that almost made it look to no longer be in the shape of an oval. Within these designs, there would appear to be streaks of solidified pale pink light, which would appear to be lustrous and near-white within the sunlight. It would seemingly resonate with the clothing that the gemstone queen had worn to the festival; under a fluffy white coat imbued with thousands of brilliant glowing diamonds, she would wear a sundress that would appear similarly geometrical, constructed entirely of fluctuating pink light and prismatic rosy diamond gemstones that would shift through glimmering hues with each second that would pass. Above the galaxy diamond that would rest upon the center of her forehead, illuminating the slits between her flowing pink bangs, remained the ethereal diadem of the crystalline race in its prime, a glowing construction of white and pink diamonds that represented her status within the other world as a Queen- it would have extra diamonds and various forms of quartzes dangling down from its sides, attached by strings of light that would fluctuate with her delicate movements.

"Well,  I'm satisfied by it~," the gemstone queen would smile as she would stand from her resting spot in the statue's hands, "let's go add it to the display at the tent over there~! ♡ Shall we get going, Lumi, Luna, and Rose?"

Levitating downwards with her magical abilities of the cosmos, the idol would smile as she would sight a few of what was presumably her younger fans pointing her out from below, across the crowd's way- her hair would flutter within the wind as she would gracefully descend to the center of the bustling festival streets, optics appearing to glisten the colors of lime green. It wouldn't be but a few minutes of a walk until she'd reach the tent to turn in the egg she painted.

"I wonder if any of our guildmates are here, shall we take a look around after we turn in our painted egg? Oh, I'm so excited we stumbled upon these festivities! ♡"

✧ Taking a few graceful steps upon the streets of the town of remembrance and historic spectacles, the crystal queen's eyes would remain a bright lime green as she would witness the approach of one of her newer guildmates with multiple of her senses. It would become clear to Desirée that Jade was wrapping up her participation in the easter egg decorating contest, just as she was- they both seemed to be headed to the booth in hopes to turn in their freshly adorned shells, something that made the cosmic royalty smile in elation.

"Hi hi hello, Jade~! ♡ I'm so glad we finally have got to bump into each other, I'm sorry I haven't been able to officially meet you sooner," she would raise her hands up to wave with her usual cutesy mannerisms, the swirling lights being projected from the holy gem upon her forehead slipping out with the movement of her bangs in the wind, "for what I presume to be an ordinary mortal, you certainly look the part of your crystalline counterparts up in the cosmos~! ✰ I'm sure the girls in Chrysalis that share your name would love to meet you one day. But anywho, are you enjoying the festivities? I didn't know they were going on until my descent into this lovely town's borders, it was such a magnificent surprise! ♡"

As she would begin to wrap up her rather extensive greetings to one of the guild's newcomers, another would happen to manifest within the crowd- it would appear to be Illyana, another face she had not yet had the opportunity to speak to in the guild's territory. It seemed as if it was destiny for the girl of the cosmos to find these abundant activities within her personal activities- though it was a bit of a change of plans, it was the perfect time for her to catch up on those dedicated to the ideology she had been dedicated to for oh so long!

"Oh Illyana, it's an honor to finally meet you, sweetheart! ♡ Thank you for listening to my music, it really means a lot to hear that it's been able to help you through some troubles- honestly, making music has helped me see through some dark times myself, so saying that is just so kind, thank you~! ♡" Desirée would exclaim excitedly to the sprouting root of the Luminous Rose, her almost endless waves of lustrous pink hair fluttering and shimmering through the soft winds that would wind through the packed streets before adjusting her gaze to both of the newcomers, "but most importantly, it is a blessing to have the both of you freshly in the ranks of the holy pink rose- I cannot thank the both of you enough for expressing interest in the hopes and dreams that our guild will achieve. ✰"

Amidst her speaking to Jade and Illyana, the guildmistress of roses would smile as one of the event's staff would approach her and exchange her decorated egg for a different easter egg, marking that she completed one of the many activities in store for the event-goers, alongside a flyer for an upcoming four-leafed clover hunt. Upon reading the title of this paper, the two bio-luminescent organisms that would float upon her shoulders would squeal and start excitedly blabbering the most random, unconventional gibberish to each other; they were so excited to look for the four-leafed clover they could scream, and while they were, it was rather drowned out by the various conversations happening around them.

"It looks like there is a search for a lucky four leaf clover just up the way in five minutes or so, do the two of you want to come with? ♡ I'd love to spend this festival with the two of you, it'll be such great bonding time for the three of us~!" she would smile and speak in a bubbly form, her eyes shifting into the colors of a brilliant gold in resonation with her determination, "the luck that is said to come from finding one of these things is supposed to be extra magical, oh, I want to find one so bad~! ✰"

Maneuvering the energies that would fluctuate from the holy gemstone that rested beneath her crown of diamonds, the pink-haired crystal would ascend above the crowd and would gracefully flutter up the road to her next destination, leaving a small trail of white and pink stardust behind her within the sky. Her companions would rapidly follow, the two bio-luminescents racing to dive into the hunt. If the two of her guildmates would follow, they would notice that she would wait for them on the edge of the rare leaf-hunting grounds before beginning her search for this elusive sprout of nature, her golden optics scanning the area with demon slayer senses in hopes to somehow spot a clover with four leaves within the abundant stacks of its ordinary counterparts.

✧ After digging and digging through the flora that coated the hill of Oak Town, the guildmistress would sigh as her eyes would waver from the ground upward to her group- the four-leaf clover did not seem to make an appearance to either of the three. While Desirée was not in the least bit upset from the festive ordeal, her bioluminescent organisms that floated around her crown of diamonds definitely were; their pink and green hues would now appear to consist of bright variations of blue colors, accompanied by wispy tears made entirely of holy light and crystalline fragments drifting out of their tiny little eyes. Raising her hand outward to accept the prize of the small easter egg, slipping it into her dress's side pocket to be reacquainted with its familiar twin she already had in her possession. Turning to her peers, she would smile in starry confidence as she would listen to them speak about the events that just had taken place, spotting the flower crowns Jade had constructed from the surrounding flora. They were just so precious that the Queen of Chrysalis could not help but smile and organically increase the brightness that radiated from her forehead gem!

"Lumi, Luna, and I couldn't find it either, but it's alright~! ♡ I'm sure whoever found it deserves it much more than I do," the pink-haired slayer would clasp her hands together as she would speak to the other Luminous Rose members, her gaze looking up toward the sky with golden optics, "besides, even though magic has quite the impact on the realms that get to experience it, I feel like the stars up in the cosmos are leading all of us to a lucky reality, even those that don't see it yet. Just like the light at the end of the tunnel, I think there is luck there too, even if the tunnel is super long and hard to get out of. ✰"

In the golden eyes of the girl of pink diamonds and hers alone, the sky above her would not consist of the ordinary blue tones and the clean slate that those of Earthland would experience during the daytime- she would be able to sight an ocean of brilliant white stars in a sea of pink in its place, granted by the crown gem of the crystal realm in order to see its brilliance from afar. While she was capable of granting anyone the ability to do so with the effects of her magic, she felt it was a bit too soon to introduce her guild to such unordinary things, though was sure to allow it to manifest within her crystallized brain as a constant reminder of the other world she additionally resided upon. The stars meant more to Desirée than one could fathom as they had singlehandedly changed the trajectory of her life forever- the day one fell from the cosmic realm into the seas beyond Rose Garden was the first time she ever felt that much of holy gem radiance, and though many years had passed since that occurrence, she had never allowed herself to forget what she felt and experienced on that day. Though it would be hard to forget such an exquisite event being that it ascended her into crystalline queendom within the cosmos.

After she had finished her shpeal about the stars in the sky, her gaze seemed to pull her into a bit of a hyper-focus on what was above, delving into feelings of nostalgia as she would stare into the stellar mass of pink and white light the others could not see. However, this would soon change as Jade offered her one of the flower crowns of the clover blooms, which would immediately break Desirée's focus and cause her to gracefully look down from her gawk into the sky.

"Oh Jade, thank you so much~! ♡" she would excitedly exclaim to the girl in hopes to accept the gift, quickly slipping it onto her head to rest just under her crown of gems, "it's pink, too!"

Raising herself off the ground a few feet within ethereal flight, the gemstone queen would smile as she would spin toward Illya once more and would raise her hand out to manifest a small circular ripple accompanied by a magical circle, closing her eyes for a brief moment. It was clear to the guildmistress that the girl was seemingly avoidant of making eye contact and was a bit apologetic for not finding the clover- it was something that made Desirée the tiniest bit upset, though unnoticeable, as there was nothing to be apologizing for in her eyes! Therefore she had an idea, and though she was a bit self-conscious as she did not wish for it to be silly, she decided to go with it as soon as it crossed her mind. Envisioning a small pile of pink diamonds each individually shaped in the image of a four-leaf clover, out of the rippling magical circle would float into the air small crystal constructs that reflected just what she was imagining, about twelve in total.

"Illya, this is for you~! ♡ If we weren't able to find it today, this should do just the trick until we each get to find an actual four-leaf clover of our own! They say holy pink diamonds are the brightest in luminosity of them all, ✰" she would begin to speak to the girl as one of the clover gems would make its way in front of Illya in levitation, waiting to be plucked, "oh, and for the flower crown and your hard work searching, you get one too Jade~! It's like a trade~! ♡"

Passing out the levitating charms of gemstones and pink light, she would disperse them evenly upon those in the group and any visible pets, including her own, though her senses would once again be off-put. However, it would not be from an awkward space gaze but from her nose; somewhere close she could smell a freshly opened bottle of some kind of liquor with her slayer senses, alongside some really really vibrantly scented cooking. It would cause her eyes to become developed in a rosy pink color in contrast to her typical golden. Though there was not a need for consumption of anything other than light and cosmic radiance for those of gem-kind, Desirée still enjoyed the old ways of living she experienced for eighteen years of being an ordinary human mage. But eating by no means compared to drinking.

"I smell liquor and some probably super yummy food! ♡," the girl would exclaim, quickly rising into the sky about ten feet above the hill's surface as she would begin to scan the tents, eventually spotting the shots being poured at a bar with her slayer senses, "it's at the tent with the green pattern and pink tip~! ✰ Let's go you guys~! ✰"

Bolting across the sky with such speed that it almost looked like she teleported, Desirée would arrive above the tent after leaving a wispy trail of light and crystalline fragments and would rapidly levitate downwards, allowing her heels to clack against the concrete below. It wasn't her intention directly to leave Jade and Illya to catch up on their own, though the scent of the booze caused her to make carry out rather drastic actions in order to quickly get what was abnormally slipping her mind for once- it was the tiniest bit embarrassing for her to think about, leading her to quickly order a bottle of champagne (which coincidentally was in a glass decorated in pink ribbon-like patterns) and take a few heavy gulps straight with no chaser. Burping after doing so, she would let out a sigh and would begin eyeing the food before grabbing a small puffy pastry of sorts and stuffing it into her mouth to mask that grotesque taste that came from that strong pink champagne. To her surprise, one of the event staff would come up and award her with two additional small easter eggs- probably one for each mega gulp.
