Mocha looked over her shoulder at the man following. She smiled, her sleek black hair spilling over her slender shoulder. Licking her lips, she seated herself, with some drammatic flourish, crossing her coffee-coloured legs at the ankle. She waited for the man to come to her.
....
Kotei nodded politely. "Yessir.." He stammered, fiddling with his glass... the ice clinking, soft noises that dissolved almost as soon as they started, much like his idle thoughts. He cleared his throat, seeking for something intelligent to say... "Ummm... I like your mask.." He offered, a wobbly smile stretching across his feline features.

"Hello there..." Aura nodded courtly at the lonesome lady, "You seem extra depressed this evening...anything I can do to help?"
Mika stood slightly back as Aura had told him, he had no idea why she wanted to explore his connections, other than pure curiosity. He watched them intently, taking small sips of the 'disgusting' drink. Reaching into his cloak he pulled the letter out after turning it over a few times and staring at it in a vain hope that it became see through, "What couldst thou want with me, Lord Moloch?" Noticing a few people looking at him, Mika gave off a glare that made their eyes find something else less moody to stare at.

Matthais looked around the some people, he idley chatted to some nobodies, "Oh hey, yeah it seems their getting ready for something or other....yeah kinda boring yeah...but these social events always are huh?" He smiled slightly before looking back at his new friend, "So...what's on your mind....ermm...." Matthias thought for a while slightly confused, "Actually we haven't been formally introduced, have we?"
Bowing in a very gentlemanly fashion he scooped up Lai's hand and kissed it gently, "My name is Matthias Reims....who are you my breath of fresh air?"

V turns and sees the person who has just said something to her and notices it's Zenzetra. "Why hello..." She says laying her mask below her chin. "Having fun?"

Kaori looks up at the young woman. She had never seen her before. "Oh hello..." she said, standing up and curtsying. "I was just...angry...so you might say, of not finding anyone I knew to hang around with..." She smiled. "I am Kaori, and you are...?"

Slither made his way to the mystery woman, pulled a nearby chair to himself with flair, and seated himself upon it with some difficulty due to hs tail. As it was, he eventually managed to curl it under his cloak. He leaned across to the heavily tanned woman and remarked, looking into her eyes... "It's a tiring night, isn't it? What one needs is a drink to perk himself up." He motioned to a man passing who resembled a waiter. "Do you drink?" he inquired.

"Well Kaori....I'm Aura Mitsu," She said warmly, "I know that feeling all too well," Aura then walked over to Mika and dragged him over to Kaori, "but then I found my Obsustus here," She hugged his arm warmly while he just rolled his eyes, "We then saw you and he said he knew you..." With one hand she pulled his scarf from his costume revealing the all too stern face and the all too familiar tattoo, "Does this ugly mug belong to you?"
Mika rolled his eyes again, "Good evening Kaori, I am sincerly sorry for this ruse...some people find great joy in keeping people in the dark," He threw a look at Aura.
"What? I thought this would be a nice gesture, bringing two friends together again," Aura winked at Kaori, "I prefer him with the scarf on don't you? Atleast then he looks as if he is having a good time."

Kaori let out a warm laugh. "It does not really matter to me..." Kaori said. "He's quite nice...with or without the scarf. Although..." She smiled. "It doesn't seem this is true this night...Well, I don't suppose that my opinion would matter, at least not to him..." She looked at Mika and smiled again. She then remembered what Aura had called him. "Obsustus...?"

Lai blushed slightly, and fiddled with a strand of golden hair. "My names La-....Laire...." she lied (or La'ied...). After all the purpose of this ball was to remain anonymous until the end, if at all possible. And she had no doubt most people in this room would know her name.... She hadn't heard his before, however. Not so far as she could tell. She looked around, sipping her drink. "Kinna...'seedy' place isn't it?" she surveyed the darker corners of the club, hoping she wouldn't have to do the right thing, and go all 'law enforcement'ish. She sighed.
------------ Seraphita took the stage, and gave a peircing whistle. She watched the room turn to her. Slowly, she spoke. "Welcome to tonights masked ball! Here are the rules you must abide by...do not reveal your name, if it can be helped, or any particular details about yourself, your profession, etcetera..." she smiled 'This, would give everyone a clue to who you are, and thus defeat the purpose, wouldn't you say?" she cast her icy gaze about the room 'WHen the clock strikes midnight, and unmasking will take place. Whoever you are with at the time, will unmask you, and then the ball shall conclude, when the hourglass explodes...' she pointed to the object behind her. 'Let the night begin!" with a expulsion of silvery smoke, the hourglass began to turn...

Audrey watched Seraphita on the stage. Something was different about the tone she spoke in, but she quickly dismissed it as excitement and looked around, trying to spot someone to talk to. She was becoming restless having nothing to do, and noone to speak to. Seeing noone alone and not wanting to interrupt peoples conversations, she made for the drinks table and picked up a glass of silver-coloured wine, quickly moving aside. Sipping it, she stared up at the hourglass and blocked out the noise around her. The sand trickled slowly. She had an ill feeling about this night. 'You're overreacting.. nothing is going to go wrong...'

Seno downed his second glass of...something. Bored he looked around once more. This was certainly not his cup of tea. It was then when he eyed what looked to be an equally board women, Audrey. He looked at his clothes and gave himself a once over before approaching.
"You look twice as bored as I am, but no way near as lost. Got any clue on who the mysterious invitation giver is?"

Mocha brushed her hair back again, arching a slender eyebrow. "Depends..." She purred, "On who's buying it..." She licked her lips, feigning boredom, crossing her legs.
...
Kotei tensed, and a hot blush swept across him like a wildfire. "N.n..no.. Ma'am.." he stuttered, eyes wide, extremely aware of the woman's hand on his back... which was finding it's way down slowly...

Audrey turned to face Seno and smiled. "bored..? no indeed sir.. Just meditating amongst the pandemonium." She allowed her eyes to wander over the character. "..I do believe Seraphita sent it, though I am unsure why. She's not really the kind of person you would expect to give a ball as grand as this.."
****************
Phire trailed her long fingers along the small of Kotei's back. "Good to hear.." She raised her voice. "And what about your friend...? Surely beautiful creatures such as yourselves have no reason to remain this placid while there's a party going on.." Phire lowered her eyes and stared at Kotei, feeling him tense up. "sssssh.. calm down.. I'm not going to hurt you..."

Ryosei blushed, upon hearing the announcement of the woman on the stage. He and the catboy Kotei had already exchanged names...allthough his wasn't real. I guess that's one less surprise for midnight.
Ryosei was about to thank Kotei for the compliment before a woman slipped her arm around his new acquaintance's neck and whispered something in his hear. A friend? Kotei had stammered a reply and blushed. Probably not... Ryosei thought, reminiscing the last time he had been at Sephira Nu, remembering the dancers. His concentration was broken when the woman raised her voice and included him in the conversation. Ryosei felt himself turning red, although he wasn't exactly sure why...hadn't he wanted a conversation in the first place? Maybe she isn't a 'dancer'...maybe she's just very friendly.
Not exactly sure how to react to the woman's question and compliment, Ryosei simply smiled awkwardly and gestured for a waiter. After all, when you're eating, you aren't usually expected to talk...
