Oh, quit fussing, Dewdrop
"Is this necessary?"
"It's the Harvest Gala, so yes, it is. Now stop fussing like a larva and hold still."
"And these... garish outfits are necessary too?"
"It's a formal event, so yes, they are! People will be expecting us to look nice."
"Do THEY enjoy dressing up like this?"
"Only if there's enough fermented berries to go around. Now don't be like that, dewdrop. It'll be fun!"
"Princess, you have many talents. Lying is not one of them."
Hornet learns that dating the crown princess does have a few downsides. Downsides like being dragged along to stuffy social events and dressed up like a doll. And these parties are so dull! Nothing like the ones in Deepnest. Not a single death or horrible beast breaking in to eat everyone. For shame, Atta, for shame.
Didn't even get to bring her nail along to "liven things up." You're lucky you're cute, Atta.
Meanwhile, you just know Dot is having a way more fun night than her sister. Not being first in line for the throne has its upsides. No stuffy parties for her! What's she up to instead? You decide.
Nooooot thrilled with how Atta's head turned out in this, but after redrawing it like five times, you eventually just have to say "good enough."
Also took the idea of fermented berries from this excellent fanfic: https://archiveofourown.org/works/1.....full_work=true
