Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted July 27, 2021 Author Posted July 27, 2021 The king's attendant ran a hair through his brown locks. "Shoot, miss, you're just gonna be makin' me blush all night, aren't ya? You's a good friend."
Channelknight Fadran Posted July 27, 2021 Posted July 27, 2021 (edited) Standing up on tiptoe, she placed a kiss on his cheek. "You are too." Wendy replied, stepping back down, then left to do her job. "See you later, Nico." Edited July 27, 2021 by Channelknight Fadran 1
Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted July 27, 2021 Author Posted July 27, 2021 Nico lit up brighter than ever before, barely able to mumble the words, "See ya." His fingers traveled to where she'd kissed him and would stay glued to his face for the next several minutes while he thought on what had just occurred. The rest of the world seemed fuzzy, as though he'd been drinking, yet at the same time, things seemed clearer than ever before. It was, it was, it was... Oh, it was wonderful. "You've never danced with me like that before." All the brighteness in the room seemed to drain. Stars, not tonight, please. "'Livia..." "Well, yes, who else. I raised you, Nicolae, don't you think I'd want to be there for your first crush? A shame she has to die, since you didn't follow my orders." Nico glared. "You wouldn't lay a hand on her." The much older woman smiled, shoving him playfully but hard. "You and I both know you could never hurt me. You're too much of a coward." "Maybe so, but I know I'm not a whore; You are. Shoulda figured that a long time ago. Now go away. Doesn't you have work to do?" His new apparent backbone did not seem to impress Allivia. She cackled at him, beginning to back him into a corner. "You really like this girl, don't you, Nico? Defying me, cutting up your arms to go to sick bay and see her? Yes, I heard all about that and I'll admit, this new relationship is starting to really get on my nerves." She grabbed him by his tunic, pulling him in close enough to feel her breath on his face. "I'll make sure she suffers, Kimby. She'll wish the Raveness was working on her and it'll be weeks before I finally let her die. I hope you liked that little kiss she gave you, because it's the last time you'll ever see her again!" Nico flinched, bracing to be hit. And Allivia smiled. "Oh, good boy. Good boy, Nicolae. You know exactly what you're supposed to do. And you know, it's not all bad. I'm a better kisser anyway." She locked lips with him. Nicolae squirmed. No, he thought, desperate. His stomach churned, but something had changed in him since the last time she'd pushed him around like this. Hardly thinking, he stomped on her foot hard with the heel of his boot. She released him immediately to cry out and the moment she did, he shoved her into a cart of food. Nico didn't even look back to see the crash, but he heard it as he ran back to where Ivian was sitting. When he got to his post (almost having lost his hat in his flight) he was panting slightly and Allivia's lipstick was smeared on his face. 1
Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted July 27, 2021 Author Posted July 27, 2021 Quote I mean I guess so. Probably not IRL, but you should have a chance to RP
Channelknight Fadran Posted July 27, 2021 Posted July 27, 2021 Quote There's no way that two mischevious young children like Katie and Arabella would let something like a set of rules stop them from enjoying a ball. 1 hour ago, Zephrun's Imperium said: When he got to his post (almost having lost his hat in his flight) he was panting slightly and Allivia's lipstick was smeared on his face. "What in mal was that?" Ivian asked.
The Ward's Guard he/him Posted July 27, 2021 Posted July 27, 2021 14 hours ago, Zephrun's Imperium said: "It'll let me know you really care," Riva said after an eyeroll. "I don't care," Caden lied once more, "I'm a military general, and we don't like dancing. Even if that dancing is wonderful."
Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted July 27, 2021 Author Posted July 27, 2021 Riva chuckled. "Yes, Caden, it was indeed wonderful. I'm glad you admit at least that much. You're funnier than you give yourself credit."
Channelknight Fadran Posted July 27, 2021 Posted July 27, 2021 "Come on!" Katie giggled, pulling Arabella along towards the ballroom. "They have lots of tasty stuff there! Like apple juice!" @Vapor

Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted July 27, 2021 Author Posted July 27, 2021 Nico sighed. "Assaulted. Sir."
Channelknight Fadran Posted July 27, 2021 Posted July 27, 2021 "Well, ah..." Ivian watched a group of servants flock to the scene. "Seems that you held the fort rather proficiently. Well done, I suppose."

Caden used the glass to try and hide the grin that was leaking onto his face despite his best efforts. 1

"Thank you, sir," he said tightly. Just now, The Ward's Guard said: "I'm not-" He sighed, taking a sip of the drink. "You're insufferable, you know." Caden used the glass to try and hide the grin that was leaking onto his face despite his best efforts. "Look! Oh, oh, oh, I wish I could save this moment forever. Look at that charming smile!"
The Ward's Guard he/him Posted July 27, 2021 Posted July 27, 2021 Just now, Zephrun's Imperium said: "Look! Oh, oh, oh, I wish I could save this moment forever. Look at that charming smile!" "Oh hush, you're making us look approachable." 1
Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted July 27, 2021 Author Posted July 27, 2021 2 minutes ago, Channelknight Fadran said: "Now did you need something?" "No..." I just don' feel safe nowhere else righ' now. 1 minute ago, The Ward's Guard said: "Oh hush, you're making us look approachable." Riva sat up and looked around. Her eyes locked on an unfortunate young noble. "What are you gawking at?" she demanded. The poor boy squeaked. "Uh... uh... Lady Raven, I-" "Oh, shut up." He quickly ran way and she hissed after him. "There." Riva looked back up at her date. "Much better."
Channelknight Fadran Posted July 27, 2021 Posted July 27, 2021 "Then why'd you come back here? You only had dance and then let her abandon you?"

Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted July 27, 2021 Author Posted July 27, 2021 "She's working," Nico explained. "I doesn't wanna bother her."
Vapor she/her Posted July 27, 2021 Posted July 27, 2021 21 minutes ago, Channelknight Fadran said: "Come on!" Katie giggled, pulling Arabella along towards the ballroom. "They have lots of tasty stuff there! Like apple juice!" @Vapor "And lots of sweets?" Ara asked.

Ivian looked around the ballroom and made a mental ratio of working waitresses to relaxing waitresses: approximately one to five, it seemed. Just now, Vapor said: "And lots of sweets?" Ara asked. "Yeah!"
