Welcome to Gaia! ::

So this man thought he could make off with his Queen of Shinies, eh? Criofan wasn't going to have that. What bothered him more than Devyn strolling off with Erylia, though, was that Erylia didn't seem to really acknowledge him. That made his blood boil. Perhaps that was why she had been missing. She had found herself a new King.

Well then!

Criofan was about to storm over to the duo and sweep Erylia away, but then he realized that wouldn't be very wise in his wobbly state. Shaking his head, he decided that he should probably invest in a glass of water first. The tipsy leprechaun made his way back over to the buffet table to get some water instead.

Texas sighed. That didn't really let him know if she was competition or not. It seemed this Haru and this Tristen were. Unfortunately, the last time he said he would return, he had left and never had returned. For some reason, with all of these people, Texas had a sinking feeling the same would happen. He loved Hyacinthus, but so did so many others. "...Alright." He sounded a bit dejected, but he wouldn't fight him.

"Yes, actually." Magnus smirked. "What do you say we go bother these stupid sappy peoples? They bore me." He hummed innocently. "And if we bother them, the celebration will be so much more interesting. And they'll never tag us either. You can never tag a god." The confident faerie stuck his nose in the air.

Christopher just grumbled as he looked up at Adora, feeling like a chatisted boy who been caught with his hand in the cookie jar. "Listen Adora... if you really want to go, just say so. Don't stand there looking hopeful because I'll never get it until later," he growls lightly. "Maybe I should be a little nicer," he suggested, but narrowed his eyes. He shuffled his feet as he groaned. "Would you come to the party with me?" he muttered under his breath, half hoping she wouldn't hear and half hoping that she would.

((I didn't read it all, but if anyone talked to Zoe just let me know.))

Jazz saw some many hidden faces. It was hard to know who was who. They all looked so nice and happy. "Cheer up Zoe tonight might be our night." She said as she then spied a fae walking towards them.

"You say that to often Grandma," Zoe winked and shook her head. She wished she had known more people then she did. SHe did feel oddly out of place.

Apollo walked over to someone he hoped with Dayht. "Nice eveing my lady." He told her with a smile and sorta bow.

Rain looked at her and smiled. "Well, don't worry if you step on my toes it will be okay. It's really ment for fun. Oh, okay I'm Rain." He then nodded and put out his hands to take her's and dance.

Aspen followed behind Takeko. "Hey!" He waved at her and walked over. Aspen was dressed in a black suit with a green shirt and a simple black mask. He scratched at it a bit as he wasn't used to wearing clothes. "You look beautiful!"

Haru swayed this way and that. He wondered who everyone was with the masks on. He just couldn't figure it out. Haru wandered around hoping to bump into Hycinthius or Yukio. He wasn't sure who would be here or if they would recognize him.

Alicia wandered into the party with a nervous sigh. She was still very new to the Isle of Telrunya and wasn't sure how to act or behave. She rather hoped she would see her Mom just to guide her, but she knew it was time for her to be on her own.

((Alicia is alone if anyone wants to join her. biggrin Her outfit: http://mardigrascostumes.com/fo56614.jpg ))

Kane rolled his eyes tiredly. This femme wasn't one of the brightest he'd run into...though that wasn't saying much, considering. "No, I don't. I prefer my solitude, thanks. And I'm no one's 'meat shield,' so get that idea out of your head. I'd much rather to feed you to some unknown beast myself." Harsh words yes, but this was Kane. He flashed her a malicious smirk, his own tail twitching at the situation and the familiar feeling of a showdown...even if one under different circumstances than normal.

Devyn chuckled softly. Mysterious? Well, he could play that game, if that's how she wanted it. "I have many names depending on the user, milady, but you may address me tonight as Devyn." With a graceful gesture, he let her lead the way to the dance floor, taking her hand and placing another on her waist once they were in the middle of the crowd. "I only hope that one such as myself will not offend a graceful beauty of your stature with my clumsiness." With a cheeky grin, the demon immediately swept her away gracefully, putting everything he had ever learned into charming this femme.

Serefina smiled again, feeling a bit better the more that she and Rain talked. "No, I'll try not to do that at least. Just forgive me if I stumble, okay? I don't know much about dancing on land. Is there a certain way it has to be done?" She glanced around the room for a moment, watching the other Pae'il, though she didn't seem to notice any similar patterns between the dancers. She continued talking, turning back towards Rain. "See, in the water, you sort of...feel the music. There's no rules; you just feel the music and move however the current moves you." She smiled warmly, thinking about it and how much she enjoyed dancing in the lake. If only there could be a ball there one day instead...

Takeko spun around at Aspen's call, smiling warmly and moving to greet her mate. "Aspen!" She leaned in close for a quick kiss, blushing lightly at his compliment. "Oh Aspen...you look quite handsome yourself."

Melek began making faces and squirming more in his mother's arms. Oh Guardians...more old Pae luff. He'd had enough of this. He wanted to explore the party. There had to be something more entertaining than this to preoccupy himself with.

With a nod, Esmée draped her arms over his shoulders. "Of course." She pulled him a bit further onto the dance floor before turning her head to listen to the music. Once she got the basic rhythm, she turned to Bneut and nodded. He was free to lead her if he wanted, even if he couldn't really hear the music. Esmée had heard that the deaf could "hear" music by the vibrations in the floor. Perhaps he could, too?

After finishing two glasses of water, Criofan felt a bit less foggy. Now it was time to watch Erylia and her new catch again. Like a hawk, his eyes bore into them, but he made sure to stay further away this time. That way, when he launched, neither of them would expect it. It was better that way, and admittedly, it made the whole thing a bit more interesting for the devious leprechaun.
