Surprise!

"A dark wind flows through my veins, If I only had a brain, I could think of ways to explain, Why I feel so much disdain, My heart just can't contain, That none of you refrain, From causing so much pain, All I wanted was a birthday."

AU Role reversal

"Hmmm, I'm not entirely sure this summoner even has any abilities..." Fiddlesticks said, attempting to make his summoner fight the Elder Lizard. Apparently the man was a bit scared to approach the thing and Fiddlesticks was having a hard time even maintaining the link between himself and the paltry excuse of a fighter that was scampering before him. Fiddlesticks took a moment to see if any of the other champions in the viewing box were having the same problems that he was. "How do you attack?"

Winkle wonkle, no one wants to play with poor old Fiddlesticks…

"Well, you don’t come to a bakery if you want to play around," Morgana spat back at the scarecrow who had magically appeared on her counter top. The flock of crows that came in his wake had scared off all of her other customers, so it was safe to say that the Fallen Angel was, quite frankly, pissed. Having a moping scarecrow sitting on your counter does that to someone with so little patience.

Fiddlesticks kicked Morgana in the boob with his... stick leg. Winkwonk.

"Excuse me, Mister! I heard it was someone's birthday today, but I never found out who's it was! Do you think you could help me?"

"Today you say? Hm, no haven’t the faintest. Let me collect my things and perhaps we can search for this deserving birthday person together hm? Per'aps we can giv'em a surprise party!

…now where did I put my brain…"

The Lady of...wait...

[surprisepartyfiddlesticks-blog]

I knew her fears, I knew them all, it was with them that I pushed her against the wall. On my honor, I laid not a hand on her, but pushed and pulled with every fear I could call. 

Hm. Why? She asked why. Well. I don’t know. I was being awfully mean and I’d only just met the gal. Poor Louisiana. Maybe she was right. 

…no.

With her cowering on the ground I decided it was time. My eyes rolled back in my head and I sent out the first dark tendrils of the spell. In full concentration, my drain connected to the young Louisiana. Oh, her life tasted so delicious…

[banishingtheshadows]

Lux fought against her body, managing to not fall to her knees. Instead she leaned on the wall, trembling.

"Stop…" was all she managed to get out.

She stumbled away as much as she could, not sure if Fiddlesticks was still draining her. She hoped the spell ended soon. She felt so…well, drained. 

Had she even walked that far? Walked? More like stumbled, leaning on this wall…Lux shook her head slowly. She felt like everything was made of treacle.

[surprisepartyfiddlesticks-blog]

Ah, I felt so youthful! So vibrant. That should be enough. Hmmm... look at her, cowering on the ground like that sad little puppy dog whose face you had squished up. I'll have to throw her another surprise party someday... 

And with that, I vanished off into the night, truly gone this time. 

[banishingtheshadows]

The Lady of...wait...

[surprisepartyfiddlesticks-blog]

“JUST KIDDING LOUISIANA, HERE I AM."I whispered into her ear from over her shoulder. "FEAR ME!"And from ear to ear released a spectral grin. Her darkest fears erupted, all from within. Demons and darkness and tight, closed rooms, voices all murmuring like whispers in tombs. A mob of crows erupted from my sleeves, the party hat fell from it’s eaves. They silenced her in their feathered-wing-beats, and clawed at her with their nasty-black-feets. 

"FEAR ME!" I CRIED AGAIN, without need for violence, but just on a whim. 

[banishingtheshadows]

Lux whirled around with a yelp. She reached for her magic-

Well shit…she didn’t have any. She’d forgotten about that.

All thoughts were forgotten as the world was suddenly swarthed in darkness. With a cry the girl backed away until her back hit the wall. “What-Stop!"

"WHY?!"

Probably the Best Fiddlesticks bit I'll ever write

“YOUR FLESH IS OF THE HIGHEST QUALITY FOR THE RITUAL."

Fiddlesticks melted into the ground, and after a few minutes I’m sure Lux realized that he was quite gone, and not coming back.

[banishingtheshadows]

Lux jumped at his words, and before she could even reply he was gone, melting into the ground. There wasn’t even a puddle left behind.

"Uh…what…"

The girl stared at the spot that the scarecrow had been earlier, scratching her head in confusion.

I pulled her back to arms length. I had to let her know what was up. “You’re my favorite of all the flesh sacks… except Morgana. She has a special heart in my place." Wait. No, that’s right. Look at Louisiana’s little squishy face though! If I can just… yes, I squished her face like a little puppy dog’s when you see how squished looking you can get it. What a cutey. “Squishy face Louisiana!" Awww!

[banishingtheshadows]

Lux peered at the scarecrow in obvious confusion. “I…uh…thank you, I think," she finally replied in bemusement. “I-Wait, what are you doing? Stop that!" she exclaimed, yanking herself away. She rubbed her cheeks, muttering, “Ow. What…What was that for?"

Awww! She loved her party! Old Louisiana warmed my little ol’heart. I wrapped my arms around her in a gracious hug. “Oh Louisiana, you silly goose, I’ve missed you so much!" She’s so squishy. I love it. 

[banishingtheshadows]

"I’m not-" Now that her shock had worn off, Lux was only confused. “I’m not Louisiana! My name is Lux-"

She cut herself off again as Fiddlesticks hugged her. “I…Uh…thank you?"

She hadn’t noticed me, Fiddlesticks, standing here in the dark. Hmmm. And she looked so sad. What could cheer up the ditsy Demacian? On second thought, she wasn’t very ditsy, I just needed to… consonate. That’s shamefully close to consummate. Am I even able to? … Better not try to find out. WAIT! A surprise party for the lass! Indeed! Wot wot cheerio old gal! Stop that. 

I began concentrating with all that I had. A party! YES! A SURPRISE PARTY FOR… LOUISIANA! 

I erupted next to her in a haze of balloon animals. “LOUISIANA! SURPRISE!" The balloon animals died down after a second. 

[banishingtheshadows]

"WHAT?!?!?!"

Lux uttered a scream, jumping in fright. After a moment she recognised the loud racket. 

"Fiddlesticks! What?!?!"

She whirled to face him.

"What was that for? And who is Louisiana?"

[surprisepartyfiddlesticks-blog]

The Lady of...wait...

Lux couldn’t handle the pampering of the infirmary nurses any longer, and despite their protest, she signed herself out after a few days. On careful feet she made her way around the halls of the Institute, trailing her fingers along the walls.

Her meandering path took her outside, where she found herself in a nondescript garden. With a soft sigh the girl sat on the bench, staring at a flower bush nearby. She could smell the fragrance rising from the flowers, and see the pretty petals, but she just couldn’t appreciate the natural beauty for what it was.

Almost absently she reached for her magic again, a sort of perverse checking. She knew it was gone, but she just couldn’t help but look for it. Sighing heavily, she raised her hands, watching the sunlight dance over her fingers.

A week…of no magic…no League matches, no representing her people…

If only it had been worth it.

But no, Varus was long gone, and her efforts had been in vain.

"Swiggity swag, Summoner..."

[noxusrising-blog]

Unflinching, Darius wiped the slop from his face. 

"What are you? Twelve?" 

[surprisepartyfiddlesticks-blog]

*continues scarecrowing*

[riven-the-exiled-blog]

"Twelve years old and still more mature than you." With that, she took some Lo Mein, throwing that as hard as she could, which wiggled through the air until it landed on his already greasy hair. 

"And a damn better warrior."

[noxusrising-blog]

Darius kicked back the stool he was sitting on. "Catch this, you defector slut."  With that he lifted the entire table and slammed it down on Riven, taking that opportunity to calmly gather his ax, and serenely leave the mess hall. When he got back to his room casually picked a noodle out of his hair and wondered aloud “All because she couldn’t pick a table that Fiddlesticks wasn’t dicking around on. Even that table probably tastes better than this stuff." 

[surprisepartyfiddlesticks-blog]

*is knocked over by table*

[noxusrising-blog]

"Hey Golden Child, you could have sat anywhere, you chose to sit under him," Darius chimed from a table noticeably Fiddlesticks-free. 

[surprisepartyfiddlesticks-blog]

*continues standing silently*

[riven-the-exiled-blog]

God, the Noxian prick from hell. Lovely. “Well if it isn’t Mr. Sunshine himself." Riven was so tempted to pick up the steamed dumplings and flick them at his ugly face. Hmm… Picking up the squishy ball of dough between two fingers, the Exile flung it, the dumpling soaring through the air before hitting his cheek with an unattractive squish. “Compliments of the chef." Riven giggled.

[riven-the-exiled-blog]

The white haired exile walked into the mess hall, sauntering slowly in thought, before casually grabbing some Chinese food- always the same order. Beef Lo Mein, steamed dumplings, and two fortune cookies. Two because if one was bad, then she could always eat another. She needed the extra luck. Setting her tray down on a table, her eyes narrowed on the particularly stupid looking scare crow that was posed atop the table. “Get off the table, Fiddle." Riven sighed. Maybe she could use his legs as chop sticks…
