Matthias was angry, he was very angry, in fact he was furious, why the hell hadn't he seen this girl before now, even though he had no idea what her face looked like he was sure that she was beautiful, all blondes are beautiful, it's....nature's law or something. He smiled at her in a cultured, charming way....he loved doing this, a rogue he liked being, but he was born with a silver spoon and he wanted to steal all the other spoon's just to make sure no one else was more 'cultured' than he, grabbing a glass of wine from a waiter he read her mind offering it to her he said, "You look as though you want a drink..." He smiled even more, he knew he was going to love this party. *** Mika looked on at the people, gods this was not for he. He hardly saw anyone he knew, not that it mattered really, all he wanted to know was why the owner had invited he, that was his reason for being here. If the sender knew him, then they knew he'd hate this sort of thing, but it would be the safest bet for them, as he does not and now could not know who they were. "A masked ball......I hate it when it is a masked ball," He looked side on into a mirror, "I look like a fool.....what am I doing here...." he trailed off as he noticed a girl in the mirror, was that Kaori? Spinning round he looked at where she should have been, she was not, shaking his head, he entered a position that suited his mood, annoyance. [OOC: Cheap shot Slithy-babe ]

Kaori let out a deep, depressed-sounding sigh, only it was made loud so that people within a thirty yard radius could here. People looked at her and she only let out a smile that all could see beneath her mask that covered only her upper portion of her face.
'Why can't I find anyone...?" she asked herself.

Phire's face skewed as she was pulled out of the sheltered enclosure behind the curtains. She felt embarrassed to be seen in such attire, but decided to make the best of it for the moment. She strightened and tried to stand respectably as Seraphita had taught. "Do you think we'll be able to recognise anyone here Sinny?.. I mean.. I know that defeats the purpose of the ball, but why exactly are we here in the first place.."

"shoes..?" Audrey looked at V's feet, noticing the heels. "Ohhh.. not too comfortable, are they?" She smiled. "You'll get used to them eventually.. I haven't actually seen anyone else as yet.. but I don't doubt that some of them are here.."

Kotei entered the extravagant room shly... dressed in tight, silken black pants, a white silk vest adorned with black embroidery, he was quite the picture of cuteness. His fur shone softly in the ashen light, ears twitching. His eyes shone behind his mask of sequins and many feathers, and he watched all... feeling no need to mingle, no need to talk, Kotei sat on the sidelines, and watched... he enjoyed mask balls. He hoped to hide himself from the prying crowd... his tail twitched, curling gently, occasionally...

The room was rapidly filling was all sorts of exotic masks and dresses. Slither had never understood the purpose of these gatherings.. why spend so much money on elaborate clothes if nobody knew who you were? He stood and wove his way through the crowd, trying to find somebody that he could recognise... somebody... anybody...
OOC: Was that cheap shot directed at me? And what for?

"I hope so," V says moving her feet a little, "Or I hope at least I do not fall off of them."

zenzetra stood up transformed back to the wolf-man, took a drink of the elixer, and put on the mask.
"can't just stand here i have to find her!"

Seno approached the club with a hint of caution in his step. He definately was suspicious of the invitation from the beginning; it was definately something he was not used to getting.
A second bandanna with eye holes cut in it wrapped around his eyes as a make shift mask. A lack of funds prevented him from getting any nicer clothes.
"Here," Seno said presenting his invitation while sizing up the bouncer. What a fruit... In a moment he was inside. "A few familar faces...," He murmured looking around.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ zenzetra drifted over to the bar. his crave for exitement was dieing down, still not finding the girl.
"I'll take your strongest.." he said statedly.
the tender offered him an 80 proof wine & spirits bottle from 200RXX.
"...anything stronger?" zenzetra implored.
the tender tryed to offer a 110 proof bottle.
"stronger...?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ finnaly zenzetra found his special little bottle of intoxication.
"the strongest we have, 200 proof industrial strength..."
zenzetra finished the canister and walked back to the crowd.

Mika still stood without a care for anyone around him, he watched the flickering flame that hung around him intently, it was the only thing that did not bore him. He had been approached and talked to a grand total of ten times, he hated each and every inane conversation, he found it better just to keep quiet and hope that they went away. A little way after his tenth 'conversation' another person came along.
She wore a black dress with matching mask, encrusted by an array of emeralds, but not even together could they outshine the light in her eyes, he found it strange that he noticed that.
She lifted her hand in his general direction, in a voice touched with a southern drawl she spoke, "Well look at that we have matching clothes," He looked side on at her, in hopes that this would reflect his mood. Not to be put off so easily she pursued, "A quiet one huh? Cat got your tongue? Girlfriend meet an old flame?" She waited for a few seconds for any response, "Or do you just hate social gatherings?"
Behind the scarf Mika sighed, "Thou hath just stuck the nail on its head...I now wish to be left alone," with that he pulled the scarf further up and went back into his staring contest with the flame.
The girl nodded her head, almost sadly, turning she walked a few steps, then she stopped and thought for a moment, a short mental conversation told her not to give up too easily, she walked up close to her new 'friend', whispering in his ear she said, "If you hate it so much, then tell me why are you here?"
For some reason his head twisted uncontrollably to face her, their eyes locking for a few fleeting seconds, Mika forced himself to break the spell, looking away he mumbled, "As if thou'd really want to know..."
A wry smile crept across the girl's face, "Try me Obustus...I may surprise even you..."
His head snapping up Mika said one word, "Aura?"

Kotei shrank further into his mask, he just watched... silent. As a waiter wisked past, he snaffled a vodka, and a cookie... consuming both quietly.
.....
Meanwhile, Mocha was chatting up some of the waiters. Clad in a tight deep green dress that contrasted sharply with her coffee coloured skin, she swept across the floor with ease; voice smooth as silk, and twice as cool. Her brilliant violet eyes shifted about the floor, searching for one to talk to... anything to spice things up. Flicking her sheet of ebony hair behind a slender shoulder, she sauntered toward Slither, eyes lowered seductively...

Audrey grinned at V. "I don't think you'll have any trouble.. all it takes is a little balance.." She spun around in an attempt to 'untangle' he dress which had decided to twist itself around her ankles, and tripped over herself, one of her heels catching in the hem of her dress. Toppling to the floor she burst out into uncontrollable laughter. okay.. perhaps balance has nothing to with wearing heels then.."

Kaori grunted as she sat herself on one of the benches set about the room. She rested her head on her hands and frowned. She couldn't find anyone, it was hopeless. She crossed her legs and looked out towards the big group of people.
'Look at everyone...having fun...' she said.
