Mmm. Warmth. She was still chilled from the trip over, and being Gallian, she didn't mind closeness one bit.
"I haven't seen Gallia in a while... I hear Skrimir hasn't set anything on fire or broken any more walls though. And Phoenicis?"

Rei's eyes widened at Rhys. How could he avoid the question like that, when REI was the one who probably managed the funds?
"Hey Rhys, why not tell me how much money it was? Come on.... you can tell me! I'm the Chosen of Tethe'alla, after all. And besidse! If you don't tell me, I'll hurt you." A sadistic grin crept across his face, making him look like quite the deranged Zelos.

Madriana sits in a chair somewhere.

Soren looked to the side with a soft exhale. He stilled his tongue, uncertain of how he should respond to the dethroned dragon queen. Dethroned, he thought to himself. What a curious thought to pass my mind. For I...and my stronger and wiser self...are throneless heirs to an impossible legacy... He glanced toward Melethia. "You shouldn't worry..."

Deciding to avoid the creature that had brainwashed one of his few friends, and bide his time in approaching her himself, the boy made his way towards the punch bowl. He stooped to run his fingers through the fur on the wolf's head before scooping her some punch and setting the cup where she could reach it.

Tacitus felt that Sue was troubled by something. "Susan...perhaps you should sit down, or watch from a distance... I can imagine how you must feel..." Tacitus looked around to see if there was a distinguished reason why she might be feeling troubled, and came upon the sight of the older version of Soren. "Yes... moving elsewhere would be a good idea, indeed... Sacaeans are not used to such social activities..."

Siegell rolled his eyes, not at all convinced that she could stop him doing what he pleased if she tried. "I am Siegell Mersetag. That is my Wyvern, Shastah," he murmured, pointing to the silver-scaled beast, "And I am on my way for some refreshment. Very... nice... meeting you, Adele," he sneered before doing his best to walk away, hoping to the dear goddess she wouldn't tag along.

"A contraption? Not bad," Rhys said, nodding. "I can't be the only one conjuring up roses all the time!"
He paused for a second.
"As for my entrance... Like I said, with the falling, um... a small group of people I'd hired just for this stunt let me fall off one of the wyverns."
He leaned a little closer, making sure not everybody heard.
"After I fell off, two mages would let loose with some Fire spells, making the 'fireworks'. Then, as I approached the ground, I used some rare stuff--Warp Powder. It's not easy to get one's hands on, but I managed."
He leaned back again, and smiled.
"At 4,000 Gold for the whole thing, I think it was a bargain."
Oops.

Stefan looked over to the entrance, "Blast, it's Maln..."
"Father Renault! Do you even know of what we speak?"Stefan spoke fairly rapidly, trying to distract himself from the slow dance songs being played. It was quite obvious they couldn't do anything so flashy at the moment.

Sue's gaze shifted to Maln for only a second, but then it went away from everyone once again. She looked to Tacitus... for a signal.
But for now, she was still trying to sort out the strange thoughts... words in her mind. The Resistance were like Bern, the Conquerers. They wanted to take FEF as Bern took Sacae. Why would she talk to them as if they were friends? It made no sense at all.
Even General Roy said it wasn't the way to peace.
"I'm... wrong? No... not wrong. Must... when I get the chance..." Sue had more dark thoughts while fixing her gaze upon Rhys.

Amelia smiled warmly over at NoMetal. "Thank you. I'll keep that in mind," she told him. "Why don't you go dance? I think the orchestra's about to begin a rather upbeat tune."
As if on que, the tempo picked up, and the violins began to sweep back and forth across the courtyard, flutes drifting along underneath them. Amelia tapped her foot in time with the music.
Amelia listened as Rhys explained his entrance. At the end, she smiled wide. "That's amazing! And... I guess it's a bargain, but I suppose we deserved to splurge on something after trying hard to be frugal for so long." Amelia looked around at the courtyard. "Ah... mostly."

Alcyone couldn't help but tense up slightly and turn her gaze to the side as Roy led her onto the dance floor. She mentally cursed at herself for her unknown reaction to everything. She should have said no, but the dance floor did give her a better view of many of the partiers.
The morph wasn't sure what had commanded her to act in such a way. Her thoughts drifted to what had flashed in her mind before... Her unknown past. Sadness flashed in her eyes momentarily, but as quick as it had come it vanished returning her expression to what it was a moment before.

Ed emitted a delighted sound, one that a wolf was not normally capable of. She rubbed her head against Older Soren's hand joyfully before nabbing the cup carefully with her teeth and withdrawing to the shadows under the table, where she lay and started to lap up the fruit punch. Hopefully no one kicked her while she was under the table.

"A warm welcome I presume, Stefan." He gazed around, scrutinizing a few things.
