King Aragorn of Gondor Posted October 20, 2019 Report Share Posted October 20, 2019 (edited) Nym bounded down the stairs, going to get food, when she found the room was filled with strangers. " Umm... hi?" She said. @Sorana @ShadowLord_Lith @Wyndlerunner @Sherlock Holmes Edited October 20, 2019 by Aragorn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Sorana Posted October 20, 2019 Report Share Posted October 20, 2019 (edited) Shana nodded, relaxed a bit when she heard his description of the wedding. Just signed a document. "Well, that's your party." She repeated a bit weakly and used her mobile to start the music. Not too loud - not yet at least. "And he looks brilliant." She grinned at Jace and shot James a wuick smile, asked him a glance to stay quiet for now. She turned in surprise when she saw someone new coming down the stairs. "Hi. Who are you?" She replied cautiously, sent Mahad to search for Ben and shifted her weight to be able to move fast. @ShadowLord_Lith @Aragorn @Wyndlerunner Edited October 20, 2019 by Sorana 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyndlerunner Posted October 20, 2019 Report Share Posted October 20, 2019 James turned around to the sound, and saw a new face staring back at him. "Hi, I'm James" he said with a welcoming smile. @Aragorn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowLord_Lith Posted October 20, 2019 Report Share Posted October 20, 2019 Jace grinned as well at the newcomer. "Hi! I'm Jace. Who are you?" He walked up to her, holding out his hand to say hello. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She shook the proffered hand. Whew, she thought, at least I got through that without stuttering.

ShadowLord_Lith Posted October 21, 2019 Report Share Posted October 21, 2019 Jace grinned. "That's awesome! I also have no idea what that means, but I'm guessing it's a radiant thing. I think I'm a lightweaver." He smiled. "You actually probably know more than I do- welcome to the house." He shook her hand back, letting his arm go limp so it be all noodle and funny if they continued shaking hands. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you live in one of the other houses then? Or figure it all out on your own?" She continued to ask questions, unsure what else to do to keep the conversation going. New people. So many new people and she wasn't even able to handle the ones that lived here already. Tiredly she leaned against a wall, figured she could leave at one point soon. Mahad was floating in the door leading to the living room. As soon as Jace had given her a sign, some sign that he liked it, she could head over to Ben, sit down next to him and hope he replied. Nervously she glanced at him again and then smiled at Nym. Wasn't her fault that she was on the edge. @ShadowLord_Lith @Aragorn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lunamor Posted October 21, 2019 Report Share Posted October 21, 2019 22 hours ago, I think I am here. said: Rob nodded. “It is pretty great.” He paused, thinking of what to say next. It seemed Ben was as bad at idle conversation as Rob was, which was somewhat relieving. He hadn’t talked to Ben much, in fact, it seemed his main connection to him was through Shana. But even Rob at least knew that it never hurt to make new friends. Or, at least, try to. “I wonder if anyone’s going to make a speech,” he said. “That would be nice. I hope everyone isn’t expected to, though- I didn’t prepare anything.” Idly he started going over outlines for potential speeches in his head. Just in case. He thought them at Glint so he could help remember them. Having a spren with near perfect memory was pretty useful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope everyone isn’t expected to, though- I didn’t prepare anything.” “Me neither,” Rob said. “I mean, I can definitely think of something on the spot, but all these descriptive words, feelings and emotions and such...” He shrugged, let Ben fill in the rest. “I don’t think I ever thanked you for healing my burns?” He asked, looking at his arm. There was no scar fortunately. “I owe you.” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You saved me from those Voidbringers yesterday-“ He tried not to think how close things had been. ”So we are definitely even.

AonEne Posted October 21, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2019 Cassie studied her bookshelf, eyes narrowed in thought. The old history book about the first signs of Radiant activity in America? Nah, not right for the occasion. The realistic fiction novel with a hint of mystery? She didn’t know if they would like that type of book. The fantasy of dragons? No... That’s it! Her hand latched onto The Art of War, pulling it from the shelf. This copy was new, not like the worn one she’d bought from a library sale, which slanted over on her desk. She’d been given it a few years back, and it was one of those things where you didn’t want to say you already had it, so you just smiled politely, left it in your room, and never touched it again. Perfect. She heard people walk inside downstairs and froze momentarily. They’re here! Moving quickly, she plopped the book in a glittery gift bag she’d picked up earlier, then stuffed pink tissue paper all around it. Cassie grabbed the bag and headed down. “Hey!” she said excitedly when she reached the gathering, trying to show only happiness, as if she hadn’t been told she was the murderer of her own spren hours earlier, as if yesterday hadn’t been the most disastrous prom night to ever occur. “Congrats, you guys! This is so awesome. Here, this is for you two.” Hoping her grin wasn’t too much, she held out the sparkling bag to Ax, thanking the stars that gift bags weren’t hard to throw together last-minute. @Sherlock Holmes @everyone else 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
overlord stick Posted October 21, 2019 Report Share Posted October 21, 2019 (edited) Flid stood off to the side, not sure what to do. He'd never been to a wedding before. Were they all this strangely casual? I feel like this should be a bigger event. He thought. Perhaps after yesterday's fiasco, what everyone needs is a chance to relax, and entertain themselves. Bliss responded. He fiddled with the armbands in his pocket he had made for the couple nervously. He had spent a while trying to shape them right, but he'd wanted to do something special for the two of them. I hope it's good enough... Flidmir, these are good people. They will graciously accept your gift, you do not need to worry. Edited October 21, 2019 by Lord Furret 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Sorana Posted October 21, 2019 Report Share Posted October 21, 2019 Shana nodded. "Without my spren, I would be lost." She smiled at Nym and relaxed when she heard Jace next words. Everything was good. Apologetically she took a step towards the living room. "I'm going to Ben." She informed Nym. "You can come along, but I have to see how he is." She stepped into the living room and paused when she saw Rob there as well. The two most important people in her life in one spot, talking to each other. It was wonderful. They were a family, and Nym with her spren would fit right in. Wordlessly she waved at the two of them and then sat down on the floor in front of Ben reached up to take his hand. She didn't want to disturb them, but going away again was no option either. @Lunamor @Aragorn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AonEne Posted October 21, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2019 Quote Cassie doesn’t have a lightspren, if Lopen comes to talk to her, but she does have a dead Shardblade, which would probably make him not like her (like how Syl didn’t like Adolin having a Blade). Come to think of it, everyone’s spren would probably have a more negative view of Cass now, even if they knew her before. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
