Danny slipped away from Desu-chan and found her mask sitting on the food table. Score! She'd gotten a crown AND her mask back. What was better?
With that accomplished she skipped back out the door, eager to find her friend. Hopefully he'd still be waiting at the lake.

Eris' proximity did not put Riley ill at ease, but she certainly did wonder if the horsewoman was playing a mindgame with her. She loved mindgames, naturally - but she loved them more when she was on the giving end.
Riley was a giver.
She turned her head to look over at the photo booth Eris mentioned, her brow furrowing in confusion. She'd been sure Eris was flirting, until now. Now, she had to wonder..
Did you.. desire a picture with me, my lady? She asked in rare innocence, as she turned back - only to find herself in the presence of another shocked face. This one took Eris' hand, and Riley felt the ease of familiarity between them. Riley gave Invictus a pleasant gaze, and her hand. A pleasure. And I suppose you could say yes.. I missed you. All of you. I still do. Let us change that. Are you.. the lady's consort?
Oh dear.

"Now hey hey hey!" Enzo stopped dancing to step back and glare at his 'date' and the two other woman, "I was askin' real questions here! Important questions!" He straightened his jacket indignantly, even as the horsewoman-heir seemed distracted by more ritzier company. "You blowin' me off just like that? What happened to Madam Pres?" He snorted, glancing back to Mjoll with a displeased look. "I wasn't doin' anything, doll, don't you get worried."

"To be honest, we were expecting you to do just that. However, our true dances will belong with you, Aisa, and Cymbeline - as they should. The best for our Queens." he smiled, patting Eris's hand as it slunk around his arm, before taking the one that was offered to him by Riley and kissing the back of it in a very familiar gesture.
"Your inquiries do puzzle, Lady Mindflayer." he answered at first, his brows furrowing together slightly. Had she..forgotten...somehow? He wasn't sure, but never the less, he offered Riley a bow - enough for respect, but not to denote any status between them.
"To say we belong to Eris - and Aisa, and Cymbeline - would be a great understatement. However, yes. That is the case." he answered calmly.

The Reaper ghoul was really getting into the dance, and enjoying being there with a crowd, even if the only one she knew was the horsewoman from earlier. Shaheen also looked to be enjoying herself, more than she had since Mitzi first ran into her. She gave the horsewoman a big grin, until the other woman brought up her date. Ugh, Shaheen must have missed him stomping off in a huff. The ghoul snorted. "Close enough. The jacking idiot ditched me as soon as you left." Was that bitterness? Yep. She shook her head, though, her hair flailing around a bit, shaking away thoughts of him. "So I guess I'm free for the evening, if you just want to dance, or even try to hunt you your horseman." Any other dancers I guess

Freya peeked out from underneath the DJ Booth, and gave Willow a broad smile. "Yeh forgives me if I dance with yeh..?" She wasn't about to make Herryk pay for her mischief, but she didn't see a problem with dancing with Willow for it.

Willow nodded, "And if you pay to get my dress cleaned." She frowned not sure how well cleaners liked glitter that wasn't meant to be on dresses, "I doubt it'll all come out of my fur."
Her tail flickered slightly as she smiled offering Freya her hand. She wasn't completely unreasonable but Willow wasn't going to be the only one glittered if she had her way with it--- Mjoll gave a chortle that was mixed somewhere between pleased with herself and nervous, when Eris' fingers brushed against her cheek. "Oh, good. He's been quite the pain." She returned his glare with one of her own. Important questions or not it was rather disappointing that he choose to behave in such a manner around one..... two.... there was a pause as Invictus showed up.
"Oh Please do, behave Enzo." She sighed giving another quick bow. "You should respect those of higher status than yourself." She included Riley in this for surely the Heirs wouldn't consort with her if she wasn't.
She took him and dragged him off excusing them as she did, "Please Excuse us, if you change your mind on my offer you know where to find me."
"Lets go get a picture, Doll." Maybe that's make him clam down.

The waltz, danced to the faraway and barely audible sounds from the main hall, came to a gradual stop with the kiss.
In spite of Calder telling him how happy he was, there was something...tense about the embrace. Barth fought through the blustery embarrassment, and sent a slow, ponderous hand to run his claws gently through Calder's hair.
"Yesss," he said simply, nerves coming through with the hiss.

"Well I guess that is fairs.." Freya mumbled, standing up and taking Willow's hand. The song playing didn't seem very likely for two ghouls to dance to, but they probably had little choice at this point. Freya was going to end up slow dancing with Willow. She shrugged and took lead. Because she's just that manly.

Smiling, and feeling giddy and yet his insides twisting, he continued on. "I want you to be very happy too. No matter what happens. I want you to do what makes you happy." No matter if his decision wound up turning badly.
"Promise?" He whispered.

The horsewoman gave a soft, warm little laugh at Riley's innocence. "Oh yes. So I may keep it and think back on that moment often~" she replied patiently, golden eyes glittering a little mischievously as she gave the ghoul a pointed look. "Promise me you'll grant me this one pleasure?"
Shifting her attention to the horseman beside her, Eris' smile broadened at his answer to her statement, unsurprised that he had guessed as much. He, as well as the other two former-heirs, knew her better than any in this world -- much more so, now that their numbers had dwindled. Pressing a little closer against the other Protector's side, the fire-wielder laughed a low little laugh in response, clearly quite pleased by his reply. "You know me well," she offered, tilting her head up slightly to offer him a little smile, "Although I was quite pleased you received the recognition you deserved. King Invictus indeed."
Invictus was clearly confused about the demon's odd behavior, but Eris made no move to alleviate it. It was Riley's choice whether or not she discussed her ailment, and was certainly not her place to explain. Instead, she turned to the tentacled ghoul, pausing thoughtfully after Invictus' reply before adding her own comment. "You could very well say the heirs are quite close, yes," she crooned, her tone of voice indicating that that wasn't the half of it. Invi was quite correct -- it was certainly an understatement.
Sighing a little, at Enzo's insistence Eris turned her attention momentarily back to the good-looking boil, giving him a slightly annoyed look which furrowed her brow. "Important questions which are quite ill-timed. Should you be asking for a dance, or offering a flattering compliment, you would not have been so 'blown off,'" she half-snapped, straightening a little. Ohhh, Enzo was in for it now. Sliding her hands from about Invictus' arm, the Protector took the few steps to cross their distance, eyes flashing as she spread her wings a bit. "Furthermore, you are embarrassing your 'date,' who happens to be my kin."

Willow nodded, "Better than a cat fight at least?"
The Byakko allowed Freya to lead, she didn't mind it was a slow dance. It might've been a bit odd, but Freya did owe her and it'd give the Tigress a chance to plot.
"It was kind of a funny joke." She added, now that she wasn't as mad as she had been.

Kiwi answered Muka with a nod. "I don't mind at all, feel free to ask me whatever you like." After all, he did love his clan, and talking about it, while somewhat painful, helped to ease his spirit and keep it's memory alive.
When he was dragged onto the dance floor, Kiwi took to the "silly dance" easily, tossing in a few whirls of the traditional Famine routine, his bangles jingling merrily. Turning to see Willow approaching, he waved, pulling her onto the dance floor to join the group.

There was nothing more that he could do for Aymet right now, Thackery decided. He wasn't really good at medicine like Malodore was, and if pouring ice on him wasn't helping...well. That was the extent of his expertise. He bid the dracolich goodbye with a nod and pressed back into the crowd in search of Tomo. With the night drawing to a close, he felt a slight urgency to be sure that they had their picture taken together; no other image would be quite as perfect a fit for the PROM 2012 frame that he'd made, all purpley and patterned to match their masks. It wasn't until he reached her that he realized he had completely neglected to bring the tiny sausages. He'd failed his kitsune quest. He let out a little whine as he touched her arm, regretfully bowing his head. "Hi, Tomo. I came to see if you wanted to maybe take a picture with me, but I forgot to bring the little sausages because I ran into some other people that needed help too, and I'm really sorry! But...um. Oh! Maybe we can get some on the way back?" Yeah, potential save!
