I tried to kill the pain
But only brought more
So much more
I lay dying
And I'm pouring crimson regret and betrayal
"And will he not come again?" N/A
"And there is pansies, that’s for thoughts." Have these people no shame?
"O, you must wear your rue with a difference." Slightly disgusted
 ❀ Cosette entered the great hall warily. Instantly, she was assaulted by the sent of roses, the sound of love songs, and hundreds of sickeningly sweet couples sitting far too close to each other. A small flicker of disgust crossed her face as she made her way through them, sticking to the wall when possible to avoid crowds. Eventually, she managed to get to the tables. Stopping, she looked around to see if Dante was already there, reaching up to tug at her sleeve.
❀ She was wearing an outfit her mother had sent for the purpose. A long, red gown with a wide white silk belt that was tied in a bow at the back. On the belt and hem, blackwork embroidered flowers intertwined. On her arms, to hide the incriminating black tattoo, she wore long white opera gloves that went up to the dress's cap sleeves, letting no bare skin show. Around her neck, a simple diamond necklace hung, a ruby drop in the center of the pendant glittering like blood. Matching earrings hung from her ears. Her long silver-blond hair was done in a braided bun, with a slightly curly lock framing either side of her face. She wore no makeup save a hint of blush to color her pale cheeks. On her feet, occasionally peeking out from under the floor length skirt of the dress, she wore soft white silk dance slippers with tiny pearls decorating them.
❀ Not seeing Dante, she found an empty table away from most of the action, and carefully sat, shaking her head in response to the house-elf who came up to ask if she wanted something to eat.
"Alack, what noise is this?" Sorry it took me so long to post this! And I hope you like her outfit! ^_^
My God my tourniquet
Return to me salvation
My God my tourniquet
Return to me salvation
I'm dying, praying, bleeding and screaming
Am I too lost to be saved?
Am I too lost? |

It took Dante a while to get himself ready. Staring at the tux that he had worn many times when he had gone out with Xenos had left him a little stunned. He would stroke the soft fabric as he recalled those wonderful memories. A soft smile would cross his face and then a flat expression replaced it as he pushed down the tears that threatened to erupt. With a cough to clear the lump in his throat He corrected his tie then with one last look in the mirror he left. When he reached the room he cringed. It was to...romantic. He almost left until he saw Cosette was there waiting. He hated it here so soon after all that had happened but he wasn't going to stand up a friend for selfish reasons. Standing straight as he has for years, showing his breeding, he walked to her table and smiled. His smile was sincere. He was learning to be a better person at least with his friends. Cosette was like a sister to him as Charon was like a brother. He needed to hold on to these two no matter what. For they were all he had to keep him tied to the world. He laughed quietly as he knew at one point he liked Cosette. Had things gone differently then perhaps they would have been coming to this dance as a true couple.
"You look absolutely lovely Cosette" he said lifting her good arm and hand and kissing the the top of her hand before sitting down. His eyes wandered around the room, the grimace showing for a moment before his smile replaced it when he looked back. "I think they got a little out of hand with the decor don't you think" he laughed. OOC: So sorry I took so long XP and I love her dress :3 hope you like his tux

❀ Cosette smiled when she saw Dante approaching. He seemed a bit troubled, but she said nothing of it. When he kissed her hand, she once more had that irrational burst of panic. To hide it, she giggled coquettishly, mockingly imitating the other girls there as she tossed her head. "Oh, you'll make me blush...!" she cooed in a false, breathy voice, doing her best to shove the guilt-ridden image of Iolanthe from her mind.
❀ At his comment, she nodded, a pained smile of her own appearing. "It looks like a pigmy puff vomited on the place," she agreed dryly, "but I'm not sure where else to go. The maze is probably filled with couples doing even worse, as it's easier to hide from the teachers there..." Her disgust at such behavior was clear. "If you would prefer it there, however, I suppose we could go there. Or elsewhere, if you have any ideas..."

"And will he not come again?" Dante
"And there is pansies, that’s for thoughts." I hope I don't get in trouble for this...
"O, you must wear your rue with a difference." Thoughtful
❀ Cosette hesitated at his suggestion. Her words earlier hadn't been a lie, she had been instructed to socialize and attend the ball...on the other hand, her parents had told her to get close to Dante, and to do that she should go with him... But like him, she was growing sickened by her surroundings, and technically she had attended...
❀ "A walk sounds pleasant," she agreed at last, rising gracefully. A half-mischevious, half-serious glint entered her eye, and she put her finger to her lips in a shushing motion, trying not to hate herself. "You must promise not to tell anyone, though. Imagine what they'd think, us two going off alone on St. Valentine's day... " She set a small smile tugging at her lips. "I must admit, I never thought I'd hear the word 'lovey-dovey' ever coming from your mouth," she teased lightly. Smoothing the creases from her dress, she asked, "so, where shall we go?"
"Alack, what noise is this?" So sorry it took me this long! What should happen next, do you think?
