He sits, waiting for the moment the darkness around him isn't so cold. Regulus is his domain, the nocturnal realm lit only by fireflies and the moon. He cannot complain; it is his kingdom and he loves everything within it, yet it can be lonely. The other fairies of the Dark Realms mock how he yearns for more. Yearns for the light and Glamour, claiming all he craves is a star.

Stars he has. By the thousands, yet they are nothing more than twinkling lights to him now. No, what he craves is a companion. Someone to talk to and philosophize with. Not one of these Shadowed Fae who only thinks of their next meal, next drink, next debauchery. They can keep that in their little realms and leave him and Regulus alone.

On the solar eclipse, Jungkook can leave Regulus. When the sun no longer pierces the sky, a gateway is opened for him to slip into the Light Realms, the normal Fae realms. He waits patiently, the moon creeping closer to the bright sun, and soon a Light Realm comes into view. He recognizes this floral place for the festivals it consistently throws. He can often hear the music playing from his own realm. The music plays now, alluring flutes and ecstatic fiddles filling the air with a glorious dance that draws in dozens of Fae. Jungkook plucks a flower from his planet, tucking it in his pocket as the sun and moon align, and he can step out of his realm.

The first thing he notes is all the Glamour in the wind. This place is thick with magic, the wild essence clinging to food, drink, and Fae alike. The fairies all are beautiful, the Glamour creating unique looks with their face, hair, and eyes. The gowns and suits worn are over the top as well, some twinkling like fireflies, some moving with an invisible wind, some bejeweled heavily. The Dark Prince keeps his gaze down, slipping lightly through the flickering shadows as people drink and laugh and dance around him. This was not quite what he had imagined...

"V! V, quick come help with my dress!" a shrill voice cries, the command drawing the prince's attention when he sees a Fae completely void of Glamour. His hair is curly chocolate brown, and not a vibrant pink, green, purple, blue, or fiery red like the other Fae around him. It is messily draped over his simple almond eyes, yet there is something ethereal in his beauty. Something Glamour could not change. The boy keeps his pearl-white wings tucked behind his back as he runs around, not flying like some of the others do. He is intriguing for sure, and as Jungkook steps off to the side to watch the partygoers, he finds his eyes drawn back to the ethereal boy with no magic consuming him.

Taehyung flitters fairy to fairy, wanting to make this Flower Festival perfect. Even if he can't participate in it this year. When he hears a fairy call him he appears, fixing the tear in her gown with a simple needle and thread, though she could've used her magic.
