July 7th, 1893 — The Shapeshifters Ball; Hawthorne Hallow; Irvingly
One of the most delicious things about this event was how decidedly illegal it felt when one considered the no-magic rules of Irvingly. He couldn't get in trouble for it either since it wasn't his event. He had invited along Ford as his plus one, having used the dress code as an excuse to spoil his lover. It was going to be Fords birthday in a couple of days anyway (not that he was stopping at an outfit and matching accessories when it came to his gift giving). Another fun thing about this event was the chance to have an audience. They were in the gallery now where Tycho had demonstrated his skill as an animagus. It was oddly something that came fluidly to him but he supposed the same could be said about every animagi here. He transformed back into human, complete with his feathery costume that was a nod to the raven he was able to shift into.
With a grin, he rejoined Ford as another animagi took his place. "Did I look impressive?"
Stop the time and make it still
Hold you like I always will
