Azura merely nodded, not trusting herself to speak. Cecil's whispered words, as mundane as they might seem to another person, sent shivers down her spine and for several moments she forgot to breathe as they started moving. 'Just follow my lead' An unspoken promise that he wouldn't let her make a fool of herself. At first, her movements were ridged and about as graceful as a newborn calf moving all stiff legged as it attempted to learn to walk. After completing the circuit a few times following Cecil's gently guiding hands there was a noticeable improvement. Quite simply she had become so absorbed in Cecil smiling down on her, how close they were standing, his hand in hers, the other on her back and the feeling of his should beneath her had that she forgot to be nervous. She started to breathe again, her body becoming much more relaxed which made for a much better dance partner.
Cecil closed his eyes with her as he was enjoying the moment, moving a bit closer as their steps still followed a perfect rhythm as they continued with their dance. He continued to turn and step with her as he placed his forehead against hers as he looked into her eyes. He slowly felt his face get red before he slowly stopped with her and brought his left foot back and slowly dipped her backwards, his hand keeping a firm grasp upon her shoulder blade as he soon whispered. "You look beautiful Azura." He whispered to her as he looked down at her. He was tempted to kiss her, but he slowly began to bring her back up and onto her feet.

I know nothing because I know too much... ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The falcon, still red in the face, and clearly uncomfortable in the fashion that he hadn't the slightest clue what to say, looked between Narx, Danae, and Maru at his side. He was glad to hear they had been enjoying themselves, at least until the cold interrupted their time on the balcony. A small smile managed to break through the stiffness of expression and it was followed by a soft nod. "I'm happy to hear it." It wasn't surprising for him to learn that Narx had gotten cold first. It was a bit if a chilly evening, but his sister had the added protection of her feathers. One less serious than Asger might have chosen to direct some lighthearted jests at Narx, however, teasing was not a skill Asger had really picked up on. It wasn't something he had ever been able to fully comprehend and often misinterpreted joking for seriousness and vice versa. The topic would be moved forward before he would have gotten the chance anyway, as Danae addressed Maru. She was perceptive as always, picking up on his true identity despite his girly attire. Narx didn't seem to be in that boat. Then again, even Asger hadn't been able to recognize Maru right away. Though, there was something he recognized right away and that was the look behind the smile. Asger knew his sister well enough to take an educated guess at the true workings of her mind. He knew her protective nature and had seen it come into play on several occasions before now. She was fierce when it came to protecting those that she cared about. A trait he admired in his sister but one he also knew could get out of hand at times. Even as children she
In a passive attempt to direct his sister's attention away from the poor boy who likely hadn't the slight clue the exact extent of what he'd gotten himself into, Asger gestured to the table behind him where Auburn and Reika were sitting. "Narx, Danae, these are the other too members of our team. Auburn, and our leader, Reika." Turning back to his sister and her date, he would then gesture towards them ready to reverse the ibtroductions. "Auburn, Reika, this is my sister Danae, and Narx." He wasn't exactly sure where their relationship stood at this point. They seemed pretty close but he wasn't sure if they had patched it all up yet after her recent memory loss. He didn't want to be the cause of another near mishap, so he kept it short and to the point. It flowed into the conversation rather well, which was lucky for him. He usually wasn't very good at reading social cues but he had timed it right just this once. Hopefully he succeeded in drawing attention away from Maru, even if for just a moment, without rousing suspicion that it had been his intention to do just that.
With introductions out of the way, they moved on to the prospect if thenpictures their parents would surely be expecting. That part didn't surprise him. It was something he was expecting to happen at some point in the night. Rather, it was one key word that caused the heat to return to his face and sapphire eyes to widen. Were they on a date? Neither of them had asked the other... but they had been intending to dance. That did that mean? For one so intelligent this was information he was severely lacking in. He found himself stuck between a rock and a hard place and the pressure of it all was weighing down on him in a rather uncomfortable fashion. Denying it would mean possibly hurting Maru again, but leaving it as is would lead Danae to believe he had found a date without thinking to tell her. Not to mention... it could possible put the integrity of Maru's fair skin in danger. "We're not... We were just..." Twice he tried to find the words to explain the situation and neither time did he succeed with his attempts. In the end he let out a soft sigh, drawing his back wings in closer to him and running a hand through crimson locks. Maru didn't have any more luck with an explanation than he had himself. "Pictures, yes. I think mom and dad would really appreciate that." After all, their son had just returned after being thought dead for nearly a year. Finally reunited with the daughter at Beacon, as it was supposed to be from the start. Or, at least from that very moment Asger had de ided to become a hunter, rather than a scientist or a researcher like everyone had always thought he would have been. The reason for such a drastic chang of course being his little sister.
Narx would waste no time in their little photoshoot, almost immediately snapping a free shots of him and Maru. Asger would somewhat awkwardly drape an arm over the boy's shoulder in order to make things looks bit more natural. He would do the dame when it came time for him and Danae to por together. He was a bit less awkward as he wrapped his arm around his sister, smile a bit less embarrassed. Then of course it was time for Narx and Danae to have their turn. Asger would step forward and take the scroll from the boy, waiting fir the two of them to get together. Just as spin as Asger had taken over with the scroll, Narx froze, cutting himself off midsentence. Narrowed eyes would peer around the ballroom, searching for some unknown source. Blue hues would study the guy, trying to analyze him, read his expression to detirmine the cause of such a random distraction. It was clear he was looking for something, or someone, but impossible to tell what, or why. "You okay there, Narx?" Asger would question, a look crossed between a genuine curiosity and a bit of concern on his face. His eyes would then drift to his sister, trying to detirmine whether she know the source of it all or if she was just as confused as he was. However, before he could get an answer, he would bit farewell to Danae with a kiss on the cheek before abandoning them all. Asger looked after him for a moment, looking confused before return ing his gaze to Maru and Danae.

She made broken look beautiful and strong look invincible. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Ridley was still laughing softly to herself at Adam's spectacles as they made their way onto the dance floor. The jokes about pineapple, caramel, and a while sleeping of ridiculous puns. Him using his emptied soda cup as a crown was quite literally just the cherry on top of it all. His laughter and the commented caused her golden hues to narrow in suspicion as she slowly tilted her head to give him a half-hearted glare. "Right, I'm sure you aren't. There must have been something else unexplainable hilarious to chuckle about." She commented, feigning an irritated tone. One could imagine she would have gone as far as to cross her arms over her chest if her fingers hadn't currently been laced so gently between his own. In all reality, she was only teasing. She would hold the frown for just a moment but eventually a smirk work crack her lips and the glare would falter. "My size is a secret advantage. Short but fierce. Just means you won't see me coming until it's too late." Flashing him a playful wink she would let out a soft laugh. The statement wasn't far off. It wouldn't be the first time she used her short stature to get the sneak on Adam, and it certainly wouldnt be the last. It was just another part of this playful game of banter that was a constant between them. A moment later he would turn away from her, pinching the bridge of his nose as he mumbled under his breath. She would watch him curiously for a moment, raising a dark brow as he shook his head full of dreads. "You aren't going to turn into a werewolf or something, are you?" She questioned, clearly a bit concerned. It trying to bring some humor to the situation. "Because, if you are some strange mythical creature and you're about to go through some crazy transformation... well... you probably should have clued be in before asking me on a date." The raven haired girl would start to laugh, golden orbs sparkling beneath the glistening chandeliers. However, she would stop short as she was suddenly twirled around. Managing to keep her footing despite the surprise of it all, she would nod a bit as she came around to face him once more. "Follow your lead, right." There was an attempt at a smile, but she suddenly found herself all too aware of just how close they were, and how much closer a dance would bring them. The thought alone caused her heart to pick up tempo in her chest.
"You sure you there's absolutely nothing I could do to make you hate me?" She would question, the mischievous smirk slowly working its way onto her lips as she used the teasing to help disguise just how nervous she truly was. "Not even something involving... pineapple?" The smirk would transition into a devilish grin as she spoke of Adam's most hated fruit. Just as soon as she managed to regain her composure with the playful banter, they were moving into dancing positions. As he spoke, he led her hands the the proper places, her free one resting gently on her shoulder while the other remained collapsed in his. A soft pink heat would creep up her neck and slowly into her cheeks as she felt his hand slip gently behind her waist. The color only deepened as he hesitantly brought the other option to light. It would bring them that much closer, just that much more intimate. Ridley wasn't opposed the idea, rather she found it tempting. Her mind kept wandering, trying to imagine what it would feel like to be held within his arms. Her heart faltered, skipping a beat before racing within the confines of her chest. The option was left to her... but what would he think if she chose the second? Would he think it was weird? Would it ruin everything? For one so daring and brave in almost every situation, she'd suddenly lost every bit of nerve she had in her. Peeking up at him, red cheeked and all, she managed a small smile and a nod. Retaining their current position, at least for now. However, it seemed he had caught onto her analytic gaze while she had been trying to interpret the correct dance moves. His tease was gentle, kept soft so it was just between the two of the. In a rather child-like fashion she woukd stick her tongue out at him teasingly, but after a moment a more genuine smile would find it's way to her lips. "Just don't lead me astray, Adam Argent." The words were teasing but her tone was tender. Adam was one of the people she trusted most in the world. If she could trust him to have her back in combat, letting him lead her through a dance was all the simpler. So that's just what she did, following his steps and they seated along the dance floor, and luckily she managed not to step on his toes.
Ridley couldn't help the small laugh that escaped her lips at Adam's misunderstanding of the metaphor, but the sentiment behind it was sweet. "Belle with an E." She explained softly, but as he continued with his compliments she could feel her face slowly growing warmer. Breath catching in her throat, all she could manage to do for a moment was blink up at him. "I... um... Thank you, Adam." Voice soft, golden hues would shift to the side for a moment, not quite able to retain eye contact. That same smile was still plastered on her face though. She couldn't seem to quite fight it off. If it kept up like that, her cheeks were going to be hurting by the end of the night. After a moment she would return her eyes to his, peering up at him through her lashes. An inkling of that mischievous smirk she often wore snuck it's way into her expression, clear indication that she had something up her sleeve. "So... is dancing with me just as good as caramel?" She would tease, wriggling her eyebrows up at him playfully. She would laugh softly to herself for a moment, but the teasing had merely been a distraction. Both for him, but for her own nerves as well. She would suck in a deep breath, a look much akin to determination crossing her features. Heart racing in her chest, she would slowly wriggle her hand out of his, taking a step closer so that she could rest that hand on his other shoulder. She could feel the blush that was feeling her cheeks, but she forced herself to maintain eye contact. However, just before she let her hand rest on his shoulder, she would poke him gently in the nose, smirking playfully. Once again, using the teasing to help distract from these confusing feelings she couldn't quite explain. "You clean up pretty well yourself... You... look really nice tonight and I'm glad that I got to be the one to come with you."

Life, is like the ocean. It can be rigid, or it can be still... ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
A slight nod was about all she could manage to his question of her well being. That, and an attempt at a nervous smile. Truthfully Daenerys was delighted and greatly looking forward to this moment, but she couldn't help the panic rising in her gut, bubbling thickly in the cauldron and threatening to spill over. There was always that fear of messing up, the anxiety if doing something wrong. The mind could be an evil things, often times her worst enemy. Such as in occasions such as now when it played the worst case scenarios on a constant and foreboding loop behind her eyes. It made it hard to focus on much. Even Feng's bit of advice had been heard and retained but not fully processed. Before she could have even attempted it, let alone respond to it, Jentel had come face to face with them, only just missing her panicked questions. There was a strange mix of anxiety and excitement building up in her stomach, and while she still couldn't manage words, her expression loosened and the corners of her lips twitched upwards in a smile. The smile only grew as Jentel reached behind d his head and a familiar unzipping sound filled her ears. The mask would come off and the jellyfish would be met with a wonderful smile from Jentel, no longer hidden behind the mask. She could always tell when Jentel was smiling, even when most of his face was hidden. The crunch of his eyes or the tine of his voice were always clue enough, but nothing would quite compare to actually seeing his smile unveiled with her own eyes. There were other implications of why the mask might be coming off. Once that Dani tried bit to think on too hard because just the thoughts sent her heart racing and her stomach flipping as it was swarmed with what felt like a thousand little butterflies. It was hard to keep the thought completely off her mind and everytime it inched it's way back in those winged creatures would preform gymnastics within her gut and her cheeks would grow slightly warmer.
"That would probably be for the best." Soft words would answer his question, but she hadn't seemed to have caught on to the extent of the meaning. The tiny huntress to be had been so distracted with her own thoughts, she hadn't even seen Jentel leaning down and growing ever closer. Not until she felt his arms scoop her gently off her feet, one just under her knees and the other cradled around her back. Her heart would falter, skipping a beat before racing forward once more. For just a moment amethyst eyes would meet with amber, growing wide before she quickly dropped her chin. Locks of pink hair would conceal the vibrancy of her cheeks, but only partially. Face painted in red, a small smile tugged it's way onto her lips. Embarrassed a bit, but she didn't seem to mind. Once again, the ability of speech had been stolen from her but the way she relaxed just so slightly within his grasp was indication to her comfort with the situation. At the very least, it prevented her from having to worry about toppling over her own feet on the way to the dance floor. It wouldn't take long for them to reach their destination, at which point he would gently return her to her feet, the girl taking extra caution to make sure she actually had her fooring a d that she wasn't stepping on the skirt of her dress. That was the last thing she needed, to ruin the night with the embarrassment of a ripped dress or a broken leg.
Nodding in regard to his question, she would place a trembling hand within his own. "Y-yes, lets." She sparse words were about all she could handle in her nervous state, but she was trying her best. She let Jentel lead her through the steps but the first few were rather rough. She found herself narrowly avoiding stepping on his feet. On the brightside, for a girl that didn't even quite break a hundred pounds, if she did slip up it couldn't have been entirely too painful full fir him. Still, the nervous jellyfish was stumbling and losing her balance. Once she even had to hang on to him to avoid falling flat on her butt. "S-sorry." Cheeks warm with the embarrassment of her own clumsiness, Dani would let out a soft huff of air. Loosening her grip on him just enough that she wouldn't pull him down with her, she would pause for a moment and take the time to get back on pace with the steps. Feng's previous words would ring through her mind and violet eyes would close for but a moment, picturing something that had always calmed her. A happy place. The ocean itself, the flowed gracefully and danced like nothing else in this world. Her cheeks were still slightly pink when she opened her eyes again, peering up st him through her lashes. She looked just slightly calmer and as she moved her feet ince more, following his lead again, the steps were significantly smoother. Granted, they were still a bit clumsy and she faltered here and there, but it was a wonderful improvement from her first attempt.
As they continued their dance, she would feel his hand begin to slowly slide down the small of her back to her rear. The movement brought a whole new level of fire to the blush in her cheeks and at this point she gave up hope on the prospect of have having a normally colored face again. She just hoped she didn't look quite as ridiculous as she felt, all hit and flushed. "Its quite all right." She would manage in response to his own apology, voice soft but lacking the nervous stutter that often found it's way into her voice. Meeting his gaze, golden orbs such a stark contrast to her own violet ones, she would give a small nod to his question. "I... I think I can manage that." The words were followed by that of a bright smile. While she was still no expert in this field, the fact that she hadn't fallen over yet was an accomplishment in and if itself. The longer the dance, the less stiff her movements got, his own presence and leading touch was bringing her a sense of comfort. He was calm and confident, but gentle and that's just what someone as timid as Dani needed. Despite the nerves that caused her hands to tremble and her knees to wobble, Daenerys was really quite enjoying herself. This would be her first real dance shared with another and by look in her eyes ir was another memory she was burning into her mind, to cherish for all time. It was truly a special night, even if it had gotten off to a bit if a strange start and her dancing skills were hardly even subpar. The racing of her heart could not be ig ired, wings of a dive flapping so anxiously against her ribs. Mind wandering and entirely toi aware if just hiw close they were, always finding itsway back to those heart-fluttering implications brought to light at the removal of his mask. The beautiful melody Feng was singing only added to the mood.

Auburn didn't really expect any sort of argument from their Captain in regards to the dance, not that any would have swayed her. She was out of her element as it was and even the prospect of dancing made her uncomfortable. When the two pairs in front of her started actually conversing though, she picked up on Maru's defensive embarrassment and the girl's protectiveness before Asger introduced them. She didn't really bother to acknowledge it though. She finished her food and grabbed her plate, standing up. As she neared Maru, she put a hand on his shoulder briefly.
"Maru, relax. Don't let anyone's opinion affect you. You are who you decide to be, and, as long as that does not interfere with another person's life, it does not matter. If someone finds fault with who you are for any other reason than that, they have no place to judge you. Opinions are harmless unless you allow them to affect you. You are you. And to hell what someone else thinks. Remember that."
With that, Auburn started to return to the service table to refill her plate. For no discernible reason though, she had a feeling something was off and her guard was instantly up. She'd long since learned to trust her instincts and did not question it or show her concern, but, even as she loaded up her plate a second time, she stayed alert for something. It might just be her paranoia kicking in, but, better to concerned for no reason than have reason but fail to prepare. She waited for the little photoshoot to end before approaching the table once more and retook her seat, her plate just as heavily laden as the first time around.
Weapon(s): Judgement is a massive sword that is 77" long, 14" wide and weighs 54 lbs, but, has no unique properties other than that. Auburn is able to wield this beast of a blade, even one-handed, because of her Semblance.
However, her boots and gauntlets are equipped with mini cannon-like guns that fire off dust rounds. (See Mission for image of gauntlets and boots)
Cecil brought their movement to a slow halt and for a moment Azura thought he was going to kiss her. A whole flock of butterflies settled in her stomach as her breath got caught in her throat. But then he started to lean her backwards in a move she was totally unprepared for. Her fingers reflexively squeezed his shoulder as more and more of her weight was put onto Cecil's supporting hand. Much like when the topic of dancing had first come up, equal parts of fear and thrill filled her as they reached the bottom of the dip. She could only imagine that she must have looked like a fish gasping for air, her expression all shock with her lips slightly parted, but when he whispered to her that she looked beautiful while holding her so all rational thought fled leaving her unable to conjure a reply. She couldn't decide if she was relieved or disappointed when he lifted her back to her feet once more. It wasn't as if she didn't want Cecil to kiss her, but she had never kissed someone before so the thought was slightly terrifying. Maybe a bit more than slightly. The song came to its end and with it the awareness that they were in a room full of people. Part of her hoped Adam and Ridley hadn't watched the whole thing, but she couldn't deny she had rather enjoyed dancing with Cecil. More than enjoyed. "Would you like to go out to the garden?" Her voice came out somewhat breathless, but then to not do so would require remembering to breathe.
Cecil smiled as he looked at her, her expressions were definitely written all over her face as he kept his hand in hers. He was a bit worried about ruining the moment with that kiss and had held off on it for the time being. As the song ended, he heard her question about the garden and nodded his head. "I would love to." He told her softly as he slowly walked with her, holding onto her hand.

Azura didn't speak as they headed outside. While it was true that she was much more comfortable with silence than most people, in this case, it had more to do with trying to catch her breath and slow her heart rate down to something reasonable. The cool night air did a lot to reduce the flush in her cheeks as an added bonus. She wasn't sure when the last time was that she spent so much time blushing. Finally, after a few minutes of walking, she managed to find her voice. "It's beautiful out here. They really did a lovely job."
Danaë posed for the camera as it flashed. She was perfectly fine with her brother touching her, as that was a normal interaction. She just hated others touching her, unless they had permission. Danaë would then snuggle against Narx for the picture with her. Then he kissed her on the cheek, going to go get something to drink. That was normal right? Him freezing wasn't normal, but she would ask him about it later. She noticed that his hand went to his neck. Something must be wrong with it.
He would leave to get something to drink, but she was worried about him. However, he then kissed her on the cheek and her face lit up like a red Christmas bulb. She would place her hands on the side of her face. She was in embarrassed bliss until Auburn decided to say that she was judging him for what he was wearing.
"I have no issue with Maru, and how he's dressed. It is brave of him to do so. I also don't care which gender my brother dates, however, there are rules. You will learn of them later." There were daggers in her voice. She was about protecting her brother, and his heart, as he would do the same for her.
"Ren's semblance is pretty awesome when it isn't, you know, affecting any of us!" Sakura said with a light chuckle. "You and Ren could make the ultimate power duo. Ren makes them drunk and you give them the good ol' One-Two Knockout!" It would be pretty cool to see. Though, then again, maybe not because that only brought up the question of what exactly they were fighting and she hadn't even thought of it yet. "Oh, yeah! When we were in class, Ren totally freaked out when Kali went full on snake mode. He was running around the classroom so fast that I could barely keep track of him!" She laughed. It was pretty funny though she didn't bring it up to Ren just in case he didn't want to talk about it. Sakura fell silent after a bit, leaning her seat backwards so that it rested on it's back legs. Her attention was directed upwards instead of around her as she seemingly wanted to get lost in her own kind of world. That, or she just didn't want to see everyone else having fun. Even she didn't know.

Cecil followed her in silence as his heart rate was pretty much the Cha Cha. He was subtlely taking deep breaths in and out as be embraced the cool night sky with a reasonable exhale to calm his nerves. The moment she spoke, he looked to her and smiled as he walked with her through the garden towards the Gazebo so they could have a more intimate view of the garden. "That they did indeed...we must ensure nothing happens to this garden."

Reikka's face fell when Auburn went to get more food. She was just about done with her's but was full enough to feel like being on the edge of diving into a food coma. She figured she couldn't beat someone who was nearly twice as tall and large as her, so she conceded to give up. She did, however, had one thing in mind she wanted to try, and that was the dessert table. She finished what's left of her curry and rice meal and her burger and soon got up to head for the direction of the buffet table once again. This time she went all the way to the end of it and finally got to the table that served icecream, pudding, fruits, and cake. She took a little bit of everything and headed back to the table, where she was just in time to see Narx head off to the punch table and to see Danae take snapshots of Asger with Maru. She wondered if anyone other than Danae could tell that Maru was actually a guy in female form. She figured the lady wasn't acting out of the ordinary, so she must know. Once she was seated again, she looked forlornly at Auburn eating her second helping of food. She just couldn't catch up, but was glad she decided not to stop at just the regular meals. She did manage to convince herself that she had finished plenty and had covered much ground, and so wasn't so disappointed with not being able to eat as much as Auburn. Yes, she would give up and remain humble in her efforts, and she would be content for it.
She started with the cake. It was light, fluffy and looked really good. She took a bite and felt like she just went to heaven, her eyes going into a dazed expression and felt like she could float up and turn into air. It was similar to cream brulee, the texture was beyond smooth. She felt so happy she felt like she would burst. She tried the pudding and icecream, noticing that the pudding had bits of gelatinous sugar frozen into it. The icecream was flavored as the Black Forest, and the chunks of cherry and chocolate really caught her attention, but it was nowhere as good as the cake in her opinion. She went to finish everything and soon there were piles of plates at their table, completely empty and smeared with pronounced food stains. A waiter came by to clear the whole thing away, balancing the plates precariously on his arms and shoulders, taking them all away in one fell swoop. Reikka continued to enjoy her time, wondering how long they had left before the whole Ball was over. She figured it would be okay not to dance, as she was very full and knew that they would probably still lose despite the fact that she would be intended to give it all she had. Just being able to sit at the same table as her team made everything worthwhile, and she felt happy just knowing that they could all hangout together without falling apart.
Auburn with her complacent ways, flustered Maru with his liberal transformations and Asger with his very pleasing manner. She was glad to have met them all and be considered a single unit with them. She had no idea how they would fair in battle together, and she was trying not to slap herself for getting too attached to them, but at this point, she didn't mind at all that she was growing to love her team members as they are. She felt proud as their captain to be able to spend time with them like this. She took a bite of her fruit salad, tasting the tender cream and the burst of flavor as she bit into the fruits. It was a refreshing end to her meal and looked on long after Asger finished introducing Danae and Narx to his team. But what Rei wanted to know was if he considered them as friends rather than just teammates. She knew that with time they could surely become real friends, even though for now she had to be happy with just being included in their circle. Still, she began to wonder how far they can go and what kind of people everyone's parents were, even Auburn who probably never knew her's. She always did wonder what kind of people they had to be to raise hunters and huntresses. Even though she herself never even imagined she would be here barely 2 years ago. Then she was brought out of her deep thoughts by witnessing Narx at the punch table, turning around again as if looking for someone for a second time. That really snapped her out of it, and she grew resolved to find out who's aura it was, even though she had no inkling of where to first look.
All she knew for sure was that it was definitely someone here at the Ball.

Azura Knight
Azura gave a bit of a wry smile at his comment. "Are you expecting something to happen to the garden?" Certainly, there had been the bomb in the gym, but to her knowledge, the perpetrators had been caught and all had been quiet at Beacon for the last few months. Either way, she didn't want to talk about all of that. Not tonight anyway. All of the problems in the world could wait for tomorrow. Unfortunately, small talk wasn't exactly her forte either. "What made you decide to become a huntsman?" She finally asked. It was hardly the lightest of subjects. This world was often a cruel one. It was one that would bring her closer to Cecil though.

She then would grab his arm, wrapping her arm around his. She would then start to pull on him, trying to make it look like he was her date. In a low voice, so that only he could hear. "It took me two and a half months to find you, you Old Goat. What the hell are you even doing at beacon?" She had a smile on her face, so it didn't look like she was trying to take him somewhere private.
