Welcome to Gaia! ::

Aoaka stopped outside the door, and pulled nervously on a bit of hair. This would be the largest gathering he'd been to yet, and he found he needed a moment to steady himself.

Then, he pushed open the door, and walked inside, looking around for anyone he knew. He didn't expect there to be many. From his initial glance about the room, he didn't see anyone at all that he knew, and his heart quailed a bit. Maybe he should just slip back out...

But he decided to stay and drifted along the wall of the room, his dark coloring blending him into the shadows. He found a comfortable place in what appeared to be some sort of sitting area, and just watched the comings and goings of those at the party.

Alturius scratched the back of his head. "Only when there's a pretty girl involved, usually I just like to discuss philosophy, or politics, or both..." He chuckled and shook his head. "I mean, you're outragously attractive and well, I thought you might like it..."

Alturius of course, was not going to mention that he probably wouldn't remember her name after he left the party.

Polgara smiles, and starts to promise Kaelin she won't, when she sees a familiar figure walk by the Nursery door. Her heart skips a beat and she gently moves Dil and Mel out of her lap and stands. "I promise I won't Kae, now uhm... could you watch these three? Kay! THanks!" She hugged her daughter and was gone before Kaelin could say yes or no to the matter.

Polgara lifted her dress up a little bit and practically ran after Aoaka, when she got within walking distance she let her dress down and walked, then tapped him on the shoulder. "Hello there... Stranger," She said in a playful tone.

Lucius nods slowly and sighs. "Okay..." He shakes his head a little bit, and squezes her hand back. "I promise."

Kaelin jaw drop slightly watching her mother take off. Shaking her head she laughs before she leans back watching the kids. It should be too hard to watch them play tag.

Dil smiles then pokes Mel before he takes off running. He knew this game, they both played it all the time. Mel squeeks before he looks at Laugh-A-Lot wiggling his finger.

Kethara smiles then pulls at his hand as she takes biting at her bottom lip "Think we can find a more comfortable place to sit?" she was in alot more pain then she was really letting on. But she didn't want Lucius to feel bad, so she did her bes to hide it.

Starry walked into the hall, looking around the area, Junior close to her side. She knew that he would want to be part of the party, even if Seraphim wouldn't want to be. She had left Seraphim in the tree with the sitter, though hopefully she wouldn't let him out of her sight again. "Junior, keep an eye on the plushies." she said handing him Yukio, Arubella, and a snow leopard plushie called Rua.
Junior looked up at his mother. He was now loaded down with plushies, and only one of them looked decent in the least and that was the one that had a bag stuck to it. He sighed and continued to look up at Starry. This would be torture having to drag around a bunch of plushies, though at least he would be able to meet other pae, and possibly a few girls.

Starry had been plushie sitting though she didn't know why she had been asked to do such a task. It was almost as if there was something special about the plushies that she had been asked to take care of. She herself was holding onto Yukio's double who was yet to be named, so that Junior wouldn't have to. She was still thinking of a name that didn't sound to much like one of her family memebers.
Junior sighed yet again, this was not what he had intended to do when he agreed to come with his mother. Since she was near him he wouldn't speak at all if he could help it. He did realize that he needed a way to carry around these plushies that wouldn't let him loose them. This would be a challenge since he had no idea where to find such a contraption since he had no idea what it would look like or even what it would move like. He found a chair in which to hide from Starry from and took the oppurtunity to get into it. He took the spare plushie from her aswell, intending to let Niday name it for them and then scooted the chair in so that no one would be able to find him unless he wanted them to.

Reira paused, somehow unable to flat-out refuse. "Not everyone wants the same things you do..." she repeated, as if that actually answered the question. She was cornered, both physically and in the conversation. She didn't realize that she was hurting his ego, or else she likely would have thought she was hurting his feelings as well, which would be mean, and something she just couldn't do.

Laugh-a-Lot shrieked, jumped up and dashed away from where she had been, around a little table set up for children to sit and color at. She danced around it, giggling, and tried to avoid Mel.

"I don't know!" Reira blurted out. "How am I supposed to know? The thought never so much as crossed my mind, and here you come, trying to pull some stunt... " Reira glanced about, gathering her thoughts. She was beginning to realize that she was reasonably doomed, in a teenaged confused drama sort of way.

Reira realized that the last thing she wanted to be doing was fighting; it made her feel about as far from being a princess as she had ever known. The right thing to do was to work things out peacefully so that everyone ended up happy. There was really only one way that seemed even remotely possible. And he had said 'excuse me,' after all...

"You're excused," she replied. She reached up to his face with one hand and placed a feather-light kiss on his lips, with every intention of going back out to enjoy the party, hopefully with no hard feelings.
