“ whoa - ” caroline mumbled as she almost collided into someone as soon as she turned around, pulling an apologetic smile. “ sorry -- sorry, my bad... or well, we could blame this... thing ? ” she said as she held her hand up to show the glass that she was holding. “ i found this at the bar, it looked like it was boiling and fuming and sparkling. and damn -- it’s good. i have no idea what that is but it’s cool. definitely cool. ”
IT SHOULDN’T HAVE BEEN ALL THAT SURPRISING, to see the high warlock of los angeles at an important party such as this. he had attended many a ball in his time. and what wasn’t even more surprising was seeing him at the bar, sipping a martini that was almost as perfect as the ones he made, almost. he had mingled a little bit as required of him when he had arrived, but then the bar had called to him. taking a long sip, he looked up, recognition showing on his face as the person approached him. “it’s an open bar, it would be a crime if i didn’t test our their bartenders, yes?”
i’m super late but all my characters will be at their event so here are their statuses and lmk if you’d like a thread from any of them!
ben is present as the werewolf pack leader and he hates his entire life because @annabcllc & @rxvenevermore probably got him to wear some stupid costume that the entire pack saw and now will never stop dragging him for. he’ll also be stealing the wallaces silverware and valuables again bc lmao?? ben hates rich people
hal is there bc raven is there and also free food. will probs be taking some pictures too bc everything looks super cool
auden is there due to being close with the wallace family but he wants to go home. catch him in a dark quiet corner sitting alone with a glass of red wine avoiding everyone else
quill probs ain’t there idk i can’t picture him really feeling the party vibe lmao nah y’all know he’s there looking GREAT and THRIVING on being the center of attention
a shadowhunter’s birthday shouldn’t be a big deal for the shadow world of los angeles after all, most of them hate shadowhunters, right ? now, what if it was also the werecat pride leader’s birthday ?
you heard it right, you’re about to face another enormous party thrown by the wallace family, for the twins quill and amalthea wallace. however, it’s more than just a “party”. you’re invited to a masquerade ball. the only difference is, you’re not supposed to step inside with your modern, fashionable ball gowns and tuxes. everything is supposed to be straight out of a fairy-tale, the wallace manor will be designed with all the fancy, elite decors that’ll give you the vibe that you’ve stepped into another era, into so far off land of kings and queens, princes and princesses, knights and dragons. all you’ve got to do is... fit in.
this ball has more purposes than only celebrating the twins’ birthday it’s supposed to bring two worlds ( the downworlders, and the shadowhunters ) together and maybe, just maybe, bring an end to their recent conflict. but when did an event that brought all the species together end without a chaos ??
rules & ooc info !!

august: the moment the attacked started, august jumped in and helped out the best he could. he used his magic to save others from getting too badly hurt during the attack, came out tired but unharmed.
carmen: was by faye’s side when the attack occurred, only a few minor bruises but was relatively safe with her shadowhunter.
athena: wasn’t attending the ball, stayed at home instead, was probably working at greene’s deli at the time. unharmed.
although he’d tried to ignore the idea and view the party as a way of distracting himself, max couldn’t help but think that sooner or later there would be another casualty, another disaster. he figured it was wishful thinking to assume otherwise. spotting a familiar figure among the crowd, he downed the rest of his drink and walked over to her. “katerina,” he greeted his bond partner with a smile. “are you enjoying yourself?” @sxrenssong
ben knows faye is one of those bougie shadowhunter wallace pricks, so the moment he sees her gliding towards him he’s rolling his eyes and downing what little whiskey is left in his glass. “oh, fucking hell. i’m nowhere near drunk enough to deal with this chick,” realized ben as the beaming party host approached him with a huge ( fake ) smile.
honestly, ben was actually thankful towards stella for stealing him away from a conversation he didn’t give a fuck about, but the look on her face stopped him from looking too relieved. “you okay?” he asked once they were tucked into a quiet corner, away from the lively festivities.
