Sue danced with Heath, very pleasantly surprised by her fellow host's fancy footwork. "You're good at this..." she complimented. The nomad joyfully grinned.
Victoria was still sipping champagne, still staying close to Arashe. She liked his company... whether she chose to deny it or not.

"Really? I picked it up a while back, waltzing was kinda different than others." He moved coordinately with his fellow dancer, holding out his pinky. To best someone, you had to be fancy. And you know what they say; When in Doubt, Pinky Out.
"My oh my, you're excellent as a host should be..." He spoke to her. 1-2-3hup! 1-2-3hup!
(I CAN SEE THE PIXELS, b***h.)

"Well, Milord Rhys did instruct me in my etiquette training." Sue grinned proudly as she was spun around. Dancing sure made her dizzy... she admitted that. It was fun though... very fun. She could see why Lycians liked to do this!
"I wonder where you learned from though, Heath." the nomad was very curious. "After all, I heard you were a mercenary before joining the Eyris crew. Unless... mercenaries... dance too?"
It seemed odd to her, as she heard in societies like Lycia and Bern, dancing was only reserved for lessons to nobility, royalty, and... others with the privileges of wealth.

Isadora thought for a moment. She was unsure if Harken was still alive or not. In addition, she wasn't even sure if Harken existed in Learania. If he did, was she still engaged to him?.... Or not?
A streak of pain ran through her heart as she thought about it. Even though she loved Harken, Isadora was unsure about Harken's existence right now. It was not that he was becoming a figment of her memories. It was that he was becoming a shadow and anchor to her emotions. Would she continue to remain faithful and loyal to the man who disappeared from her love life twice? Or would she set her heart free and move on?
Before she could replied to Ninian, a man with long black hair appeared and introduced himself. Startled by his sudden appearance, Isadora took another look at the stranger. Where did he come from? She thought. Judging from his appearance and his entrance, Isadora arched her brow.
For some odd reasons, he reminds me of Master Legault. Isadora thought as the stranger let out a smile. Avoiding Ninian's question, the paladin let out a smile. "Yes, Mister Lance. I am Isadora and this is Ninian. It's nice of you to join the wedding. Do you know the bride or the groom?"
Before she had the chance to hear his reply, there was a dark shadow looming by. Curious as to what caused the shadow, Isadora turned her attention to the source. A look of surprise spread over her face when she saw a huge man in the black tux approaching them.
St. Elimine.... He's huge. Isadora thought shockingly. Never had she saw anyone.... Well, besides Ganon...... Any human to be this huge. The man stopped in front of the group and let out a bow to her, asking if she wanted to dance with him.
Oh my..... was all she ever thought off.

Durbans noticed her hesitation. It was either due to his size, which was not uncommon. Or it could be with the strange way he came from nowhere. He had no form when it came to this. Damn you St.Elimine! Wherever you are, you are probably laughing your a** off.
"Perhaps I have presented myself rudely," He stated. "Or perhaps you are appaled by My size. If I may, You seemed to be troubled by something. I thought perhaps a dance would help. Perhaps I was mistaken." He bowed again politely and turned to leave.

Surprised by his behavior and manners, Isadora immediately spoke. "W-wait!"
Isadora went up to the stranger and said, "My apologies for my behavior, sir. It was rude of me to look stupid at you. I was surprised by your size when you've came. I've never met anyone who was as about the size of a wyvern. However, I should have known better than that. After all, one should not judged a book by it's cover."
"In addition, you were right before. I was troubled by something. Something that I couldn't decide whether to let go that was part of my past or not." She then tried to look straight in the eyes, even thought it was hard for her to see it well with his eyes underneath the headband. Isadora let out a small smile. "However, I will accept your offer to dance. After all, this is a wedding and a celebration such as this should not be a burden."

Lance stopped and thought a bit about Isadora's question. He needed to come up with a sane answer that wasn't far away from the truth.
He guessed he didn't have to disclose all the details. "I'm not really on any of the sides, but if anything, I'm here because my friend is a good friend of the bride. I came to make sure he didn't try to ruin the wedding or anything!" Lance chuckled to make it sound like a joke.
A shadow covered Lance, and he heard a deep voice asking Isadora to dance. "Hey, I was..." he started, but he stopped himself when he saw the sheer size of him. Sweet Fortuna I ain't gonna mess with that!
Instead, he turned to Ninian. I'm more into Ninian's type anyway... "Well, if they're gonna dance, then may I have this dance with you, Milady?" he said while bowing politely, smiling reassuringly to her. Lance was impressed with himself. It's not every day he managed to keep a straight head for so long.

((Hmm...first time trying to roleplay in this guild. Hope this goes okay. I'm not familiar with all the characters of FE.))
The reddish haired Miledy stepped silently into the reception premises. Late. She was late. Indeed, at the beginning, the strong willed lady had been unsure of whether she truly wanted to go to the reception. Her morals and duties set her straight. Though she didn't know Tibarn and Ayra well, she was still acquainted with them as fellow FEFers. It wouldn't due to not congratulate them. Thus, here she was, without her wyvern, Trifunne, at the reception.
Miledy sighed. This was one of the rare times that she was dressed up. From the music coming from inside, she could tell that people were dancing. She had probably already missed most of the formalities.
Miledy noticed a cloak on the grass. She was now under the tree that Ephraim was sitting in.
((I'll change the post if I'm wrong about the cloak being on the ground.)

Looking over, Ziaram noticed someone come nearby, and head for a tree, so he decided to move over there, in which he saw Ephraim, and someone new. "Mind if I join you two?"

Isadora had gotten a strange look on her face and Ninian immediately regretted asking the paladin what she had. Fortunately, Isadora was saved having to answer by the arrival of two men Ninian didn't know. Shy, and intimidated by the sheer size of one, the dancer remained silent. Isadora left to dance with the large man, leaving Ninian and the other man by themselves. Ninian turned her attention to the other man when he addressed her.
"Well, if they're gonna dance, then may I have this dance with you, Milady?"
Caught off guard, she didn't immediately answer, surprised by his bow an form of address.
"Oh please, just call me Ninian," she told him. "I am not a noble here." She paused. "Yes, I'd love to dance," she added, smiling as she extended her hand towards the man.
"You did say your name was Lance, correct?"

Score! Lance cheered inside. He was afraid Ninian would get intimidated by his shiny eyes, but that didn't seem to be a problem. Rising his head, he took her outstretched hand and gave it a light kiss. "Ninian then. But I did not call you Milady for your social standing, I called you Milady because the beauty you radiate left me humble beyond words, that Milady was the only thing earthly enough to describe you."
...somehow, that whole line felt clichéed, and left Lance a bit embarassed over his choice of words. And her words left him a bit in thought. "Not a noble here", she says. That means she's a noble somewhere else, doesn't it? Does that mean this Ninian is married to Lord Eliwood then?
The thought that Lance was dancing with someone else's wife, Lord Eliwood's, nonetheless, made him feel like some sort of creep. But, as luck would have it, Lord Eliwood wasn't here, she had said yes to dancing to him, and she didn't know that Lance knew about Lord Eliwood.
"Yes, Lance. Lance Dartel, at your service, Miss Ninian."
Still with her hand in his, he led her out on the dance floor. He bowed as according to waltz customs, then placed her hand on his shoulder and his hand on her torso. Aah, a subtle and soft touch, as one would expect fro-...Stopping himself mid-thought, he brushed all of that aside. This is a dance. Nothing more. "I've heard you're quite the dancer, Miss Ninian. I'm not too shabby myself, so let's enjoy ourself to the fullest, shall we?"

"Mmmm. Its alright. You are not the first to have such a reaction. I pride myself in my strength," Durbans replied evenly. "However, unlike your assumption, I believe that ones cover should reflect what is within. You... had a sad vibe. Though you may not show it, it emenates from you." He gently took her hand and led her in a formal manner to the dance floor, as Elimine had taught him. "One as graceful as Elimine, and as honest as Roland should not have to hide such feelings." He then realized he was being brutally forward, and she did not even know his name yet. "Forgive me if I am forward. I do not waste unnecessary words. I am Durbans, who is called Armads."

((Deleted my earlier post anyways since Hat is busy XD so I"ll just make a new one, don't worry about it Lise ))
For a majority of the time, Ephraim had ignored the party and went his own way in a tree. If he actually knew where Sophia was, he'd ask her for a dance...but even from a tall tree which he sat in, he couldn't even pick her out within the crowd. He heard something shuffle against the grass and looked down beneath him. A new face seemed to have caught on to the cloak which he had left at the base of the tree.
The prince stood up on the arm and hopped from one arm to another and landed a bit toward the bottom but still remained in the tree. "Have I been found?" Ephraim joked. The red haired lady looked up and he waved.

Miledy looked over as a man posed a question on if he could join the two of them. Two? Miledy thought quizzically, but the cloak on the ground answered the question as Ephraim called out in the tree.
Remembering her manners, she looked up and smiled slightly. "Quite so," she said. She remembered seeing a picture of the king before, and if her memory served her correct, his name was Ephraim. "Enjoying the view?" However, the other man who had posed the question was unfamiliar to her. "I don't mind," Miledy commented to Ziaram.
