Sofia's Adventure Journal AU (Sofia the First's Pov)

Enough is Enough P2

Amber's Pov.

"Oh, where is she, James?" I asked. "You know don't you?!"

"Yep! But what makes you think I'm telling you anything, Sisterly Epitome of Excessive Persuassiveness?!" He countered back crossing his arms back. Thankfully back Baileywick broke up our catfight in the banquet hall as Sofia suddenly entered the room.

"Ah, Princess Sofia, you're just in time to pick the plates for your party." announced Baileywick.

"This one's nice." said Sofia pointing at the plain white plate all the way by James who was smiling.

"Uh, if you were a Duchess or a Countess." I remarked. "But you're a Princess."

"What's wrong with it?" inquired Sofia.

"Yeah, it looks alright to me." James backed Sofia up right there.

"It's too small, too plain, and too simple." I responded glaring at James.

"You need something like this," I stated as I picked up the gold plate, and held it up in front of them, both Sofia and James squinted at the golden light beaming blindly at him.

"Really?!" asked Sofia trying to constructively correct me on my error now. "Isn't it a bit shiny?"

"Of course, that's whole idea, Sofia, when your guests sit down to eat you want them to say,

"Brillant!" James said the girls didn't know he was eating a swan shaped cookie of the dessert tray.

"Exactly, Brilliant!" I agreed with him.

"I don't think that's what James was referring to. Okay, Baileywick, we'll use the gold plates."

Sofia checked off the plate settings with her quill on the clipboard pad Baileywick gave her himself. She checked off the white goblets with the golden trim. The golden soup bowls were placed on the gold plates at the sound of me clapping my hands.
And the white teapots with the golden trim were also brought out. Sofia also checked those of the list and yawned. Teacups with gold trim and white body were also set in place on the tables. Sofia also checked that off too.

A few minutes later, Sofia complained curiously. "Amber, are you sure this isn't too much? It looks more like a Feast than a Tea Party!"

"Ah, Sofia!" I exclaimed. "You can never have too much of a good thing."

"You can say that again." said James.

"James, did you eat all the cookie, Samples?" asked Sofia unsurprised.

"Sorry, but they're great!I They looked like swans, and tasted like cookies. You know I can't help myself, Sof." says James. "You know me when it comes to meals and the desserts my stomach and belly is a bottomless sack."

"Except for when it comes to vegetables, James."

"Actually, you can't say that about James anymore." Sofia corrects her. "My Mom's finally got him to eat broccoli, carrots, and even sweet potatoes, and he'll eat a ton of them now. In fact he loves the Mayan coleslaw now."

"Yeah, that salad is just awesome." James agreed.

"How big were those cookies?" I questioned my brother.

"About ye big."

The width of a golf ball. Outrageous kitchen work.

"No! Oh, that won't do. They need to be about ye big!" I responded.

"I thought this was Sofia's party." James reminds me again.

"It is, but I'm just helping." I answered, and turning to Sofia I asked her. "What kind of cookies would you like, Sofia?"

"Well, the guests will be hungry, and we don't wan the cookies to be too small, so I guess make 'em as big as we can. Maybe tennis ball width for the swan body of the cookie."

"Wonderful!" I agreed with her. James glared at me.

"Your actions which catch up with you, Amber." He warned me.

"This is fun, what's next?" I asked.

"The floating tables," Sofia informs me. We went up to Mr. Cedric's tower. The door was open which was unusual for this time of day even for the Royal Sorcerer.

"Mr. Ceedric!" Sofia greeted him kindly, and he got a bit jumpy, and demanded to know, "Princess Sofia, and Princess Amber, surely, they teach you how to knock at that Royal School of yours?" He asked both of us.

"Oops! Sorry, the door was open." says Sofia apologizing.

"We've to ask a favor." I began, then I bumped Sofia in the side. "Go ahead, Sofia."

"Do you have a spell that can make things float?" questions Sofia.

"Do I have a spell that can make things float?"
