V laughed and helped Audrey up. "I think with my balance I would be able to do that.She smoothed out her dress and looks around feeling that some one is looking for her. "Is it just me, or do you feel like some one is looking for one of us?"

Lai bit her lip and eyed the man handing her the glass of wine cautiously "Well...I suppose...I did sorta...sure" she took it, and grinned. "I'm uptight..i'm sorry. It's my line of work, not used to trusting anyone..." immediately she'd said it she felt it was a bad idea. She resolved not to give anymore away, at least not tonight...
ooc: alek, i feel i owe you an apology...for stuff. I'm sorry. I'm glad we're friends again, ne?
----
Sin wandered around the room, vaugly wondering if anyone would bother to come over to her. She smiled at the others, Phire and Mocha, doing their 'thing'...especially Mocha. Ahh well, that was her way, she supposed...
----
Seraphita climbed onto the small stage at the back of the room, perparing herself for 'the introduction'...

Ryosei scanned the room behind his mask. He saw nobody he could recognise at a glance...but wasn't that the point of a masked ball? He didn't really expect to know anybody anyway...for all he knew the invitation wasn't even for him.
Taking an appetiser from a passing waiter, he nibbled at it, simply gazing around him and enjoying the general atmosphere. His fringe was starting to hurt him...he wasn't used to pulling it back so far, or so tightly. He grimaced, hoping he could find a time and place to rearrange it before the night was over.
He sat down at the side of the room, watching, waiting for something to happen. He turned to the person on his left. "Hi, enjoying yourself?" he asked in a friendly voice. The man grunted and left his seat, off to mingle. Ryosei turned to the person on his right, a cat-person in a feathery mask, and shrugged, grinning. "You can't please everybody," he said.

"I guess not.." Kotei replied softly, ears twitching. He curled his tail around his leg, and didn't look Ryosei in the eyes... sipping at his vodka, his cookie already demolished.
....
Mocha was sidetracked from her seductions by a gesture from Sin. Smirking, she winked at Slither, and stalked back to the other woman, her hips wriggling as she went.

Ryosei raised an eyebrow, before turning his head forward again, staring straight ahead, looking miffed. The catperson didn't seem to want to talk either. Didn't anybody want to talk? Why was everyone so boring here? Did his strange blue fringe deter them? "Hmmph."
It wasn't HIS fault he had a blue fringe. He had tried his best to conceal it for tonight. Staring directly ahead at the crowd, he sat there, bored out of his brains.

Kotei raised his eyes to the other man. He offered a weak smile, and cleared his throat. "I'm Kotei.." He announced softly, and extended a paw timidly. "I don't believe we've been introduced.."

zenzetra felt discouraged, then he remembered his old friends cloud and ghuent.
cloud would probable tell me to "hang loose" and "be assertive" and ghuent... well he wouldn't even think he would just go right out there find her, ask her to dance, and be successfull
zenzetra steped out to the crowd looking for the "girl in light bright green" to present herself.

[OOC: Don't worry about it Ser, technically I'm at fault too, so I accept your apology (for stuff) if you accept mine (for being an ass)]
Matthias's smile grew even wider, "Oh don't trust me, my profession also deems that I shouldn't trust anyone, or that anyone should trust me, but I'm sure that we could work around that," He stole another glass from the same waiter, who cursed his stupidty and walked off to get another, "Pardon me for saying such a corny line, but have we met before now? Stupid question without knowing what each looks like," He rotated the glass between his fingers before continuing, "its just that...I'm sure I've heard your voice from somewhere before now..."
*** ***
Aura smiled as Mika's mind clicked into recognition, it was her, what was she of all people doing here and more to the point why did it have to be this night, she answered both these question with one answer, "So I see my little plan worked."
Of course, Mika thought to himself, Aura would never simply ask someone to meet with her, she always wanted to play the spy, ever since they were both came into being, "Why did you call for me?" He asked in his cold detached way.
Aura smiled, at least he hadn't lost his happy humor along with his power, "Well I wanted to see how you were doing, that's all." She smiled on through this lie.
"It hath been sixteen year since my punishment, since my rebirth as...this of flesh and blood, and now I'm acursed with a body of a boy till all light cease to be. Why wait so long and why bother at all, as no one of our kind could ev'r risk being seen with I...not unless it be of dire importance..." Mika knew the rules of his former-people well, anyone caught communicating with an exhiled Spirte could be charged with treason and de-winged themselves.
The lady of black smiled, while it was true that she had come to see how he was doing as a human, it was also true that she came bearing a message that he may or may not have wanted to hear. From an alcove of her dress she produced an evelope with a wax seal on it, Mika recognized it instantly as the mark of his clan, the element of fire with a set of wings rising above it, forcing it into his hands she spoke softly, "This is from Guardian Moloch, he told me that you should not open this until you are back on your ship..." Mika looked up from the document, "He always had a soft spot for you Obustus...a little like myself." She lent in and kissed him on the cheek, pulling away quickly she wiped something from her eye, "Now let's enjoy the party huh? I'm sure some of your friends are around and I'd like to meet some of the people who have been taking care of you."
Mika was shocked, more so than ever before, in fact he was so shocked that he did not resist at all when Aura started dragging him across the room in a beeline for the bar.
OOC2: Aura Mitsu will be just an innie-outie character, nothing big....gish

Kaori was getting bored of arguing with herself in her mind, so she decided she might as well get a drink, to spice up the argument. She ordered her drink, and took a couple of sips. She looked out at all the people as she sat at a stool, crossing her legs.

Slither perked up at the woman moving towards him. He had very little experience in the ways of human woman, but he knew exactly what he had seen. Wiggling hips, a seductive wink...
He smirked to himself. He knew that the only reason a human would act towards him like that was if she didn't know what he was. And right now, he was at a masked ball, so she obviously thought that his face was his mask. The thought was almost tragically funny.
He stood and followed her, weaving his way through the twisting crowd. Who knows, he thought - maybe the night would be more interesting than he had thought...

Ryosei perked up. Allright! It's about time someone decided to talk. Turning to the masked feline, he shook the outstretched paw in a friendly manner. "I'm Rumm," he said. Good...don't use your real name. This way, if something embarassing happens, nobody recognises you outside... "Pleased to meet you. Enjoying yourself?"

(ooc: everyone is perking up! ;D)
zenzetra was still looking... still trying to find the girl.
"right now just about anyone to talk to would be nice...", he said aloud.
with that he went up to the band and requested something alternative. then he sat down took out a deck of candoovian cards and started playing a game, keeping all the cards in his hand not lettinbg a single one drop as he shuffled through them in an attempt to break this slumpish attitude he was in.
"is anyone realy out there?"

At the bar Aura order two drinks, Mika looked about himself then at the letter in his hand, after stuffing it into a crevice of his cloak he took another look around, the bar was quite crowded now so much so that he lost sight of Aura on several occasions. She finally came back with two strange concoctions, "Here we go," she beamed, "One thing these mortals know how to make is a drink worthy enough to die of."
Taking a sniff of the liquid Mika almost lost his eyesight, it smelt disgusting, he looked at its pale color, it looked disgusting, he was about to take a sip but thought that two out of three was enough for him, "Dost thou think that our first meeting in almost two decades should end in mine?"
"What? You can't......oh yeah...." She had completely forgotten about his ties to the world, "Well I could take it back, if you want?" Her hand went out to take it.
Mika retracted his hand shaking his head, "No, I think I'm in good sted should I go..." He smiled and took a deep gulp........it tasted disgusting, "That shall teach me..." he whispered under his breath.
Aura looked up from her drink, /disgusting/ she thought, she looked around the party again and strangely enough on a stool nearby she spotted someone, "Hey isn't that girl over there a friend of yours?"
He looked up and saw someone familiar, "Yes, that is...."
"Kaori...." she said matter of factly, quickly adding, "right?"
Mika looked at his companion strangely, "How did you know tha...."
"Let's go talk to her!" Before he could argue Mika was dragged off again, heading straight for Kaori and her self-service arguement.

Kaori took another sip of her drink and sighed. Her head was beginning to ache, too much arguing. She shook her head, and now she was not arguing with herself. She raised an eyebrow at nothing in particular and eyed her drink.
'How...interesting that argument had been...' she thought to herself. 'How sad of it to stop...'

Phire scanned the room for any interesting beings to.. talk.. to. she spotted a pair sitting down and sauntered over to them. she hovered behind the catboi for a secon, listening to their 'conversation' before sliding her arm around the catboi's neck and whispering into his ear. "Do you plan on sitting here all evening..?" She smiled seductively, biting her lower lip waiting for a reply..
