"Szívből üdvözlök itt minden testvért"
from Dance of the Vampires by Jim Steinman & Michael Kunze, Krolock welcomes his guests to his ball
This little intro will be posted before everybodys post about the ball, so feel free to skip it if you've already read it and know what's going on. We wrote this one together, all of us who are going to tell about the dance.
3.
Margaret Anna - umm... simply a party? Maybe a birthday party? With chocolate :)
The
girls were really sweet and
Brother, too. He didn't even mind my
being very bad at the dancefloor. I stepped quite a few times on his
boots to be honest. And not only while we were learning it. But after a while - it must have been a miracle, I thought first - it didn't happen anymore, well, only very rarely. It turned out he memorized my mistakes and took care not to put his boots in the way of my boots. :)
I did not dare to dance with anybody else for fear of being laughed at or worse, pitied. Brother handled the whole thing as if it was a completely natural thing. Sadly, I was really nervous all the same. Then I realised that he was talking to me.
'Just don't think about it.'
'Huh?'
'Too much thinking. Let it go. Sister says so, too.'
'I'm trying.. oops, sorry... I'm concentrating but... sorry...'
'Told you you think too much about your feet. Don't.'
I did my best to appear happy but apparently my best afforts were not enough because a little later, he spoke again.
'You know what. Need a new sister.'
'Oh, I'm perfectly fine. Sis is well too. She befriended some other Elsa dolls.'
'Lots of girls here. Pick one.' he insisted.
'It doesn't really work like that. They are nice and all but not my sisters.'
'Can't help if you refuse to be helped.'
'Elsa is so special. I do not know, why but it's a huge difference if Elsa and Anna dolls are sisters or Belle and Mulan dolls.'
'Wouldn't think they look like sisters.'
'Oh, then Aurora and Rapunzel. Elsa and Anna simply work as sisters. Like they have some special sister magic.'
'There is an Elsa in the house.' he pointed out.
'Rrrriiiight. But she already has a sister.'
'Picky about the numbers?' he wasn't annoyed, he simply wanted to know if that was the problem.
'It's not that' I sighed 'It's that, Dolly... Dolly is... you know.'
I could'n say that aloud... I can't even write it down. :( Maybe I'm jelaous. Meanwhile he thought the whole thing over.
'Ask Meritre to get another Elsa.' he suggested 'It'll take a while. But she'll get you one.' he smiled encouragingly.
'Thank you.' I smiled back.
I wanted to sit down and think, but alone so I picked some other corner, not Sorghoktanis bench. Daphne wondered for sure what I was doing there, I noticed she kept looking at me. But I had to think it over. Get a new sister? Treat them like a toothbrush, old one's not here, let's get a new one? That just doesn't work like that! But the more I thought the worse it seemed. Left all alone... no Meg, don't think like that. Happy thoughts, happy thoughts. Maybe this unknown Elsa wouldn't like to have a sister. But maybe she would love to have one. By the time Vester turned up again I felt that maybe asking Meritre a few careful questions can't hurt. But it turned out I didn't need to ask.
'Meritre would love to add a coronation Elsa to her collection.' Vester told me. He didn't tell me though where he picked up that information and I just assumed he talked directly to Meritre. Just like him, trying everything to make others around him happy. After that I felt like walking on clouds. Or more like dancing on clouds.
'Told you it'd be better if you don't think about it.'
He was right, I did much better during this dance round.
He didn't mention the sister thing after that but I couldn't get the idea out of my had.
After all, Victoria is not Dollys first sister, either and she's from a set, too. (Meritre: for details, see Sister story) And who knows, dolls change, maybe... maybe... I mean, miracles do happen, don't they?
Well, one miracle did happen. Mireben's moving out and she gave me the little bearbrother she came with. Not the miracle I was hoping for but he's definetely cute and keeps me busy.
