Welcome to Gaia! ::

When they had a moment or two to themselves Nii took a second to take in a deep breath. Her poor cheeks felt sore from smiling so politely at all the guests and during the whole event. She was used to being polite but here she was expected to be the blushing bride and loving wife. When she heard Dev speak to her she gave a small jump before she looked at him.

Niiemh didn't mind the husband she now had, from what she's gotten to learn he was fairly nice. When it registered what he'd told her she let her eyes drop to her glass. "I can't drink.. I mean, I have no tolerance." Nii had dropped her voice to a soft whisper as she spoke to him. To her the glass was more like a prop. Though when she looked back at Devereux she had to wonder if a single glass would give her the confidence he had going.

The redhead gave a small shy nod of her head when he seemed to be in disbelief. Though she offered a very small giggle at his admission to being allowed to drink when he was younger. "I was allowed to for special occasions, it's how we discovered I have no tolerance. My brothers had to help carry me to my room and then teased me about it later." It had been mortifying for her to learn she'd been absolutely foolish while intoxicated.

She looked out at the room then back at Dev. "Nothing dangerous." She felt she should at least put one rule on their game as she lifted a finger from her glass to point at him.

Her eyes followed his fingers from his lips to his heart and then to the talisman before returning to his eyes. When he called her Mrs. Baenraebban she blushed a bright red. That was something she was going to need to get used to.

It took her a second, that included looking away from him and taking a sip from her glass. Nii needed that liquid courage at the moment and it also gave her a moment to calm the blush in her cheeks. Once that was done she looked at him with a side glance. "Truth." That was the safer option, right?

Something she was embarrassed to admit she enjoyed? Nii had to think for a second about that one. Mostly she had tried to make sure that there was nothing that her stepmother could use against her. However, recently she did enjoy sneaking out a bit more. Though she didn't think that was quite the answer he was looking for. "I'm afraid you may find me boring." Niiemh reached up to push a rebellious curl away from her face. "Much like most ladies, I have a guilty pleasure in listening to the gossip of servants. Some things can be rather scandalous." Nii had heard of a tryst or two that way. It was also how she knew about some affairs going on with others, though she never really did anything with the information she learned. "I'm embarrassed to admit I follow some gossip like it's the latest release of a good novel."

She paused for a moment to watch a few of the party goers, even smiling at them when they gave acknowledgement to the newlyweds. Nii's fingers fiddled with her glass before she looked over at Dev. "And you, dear husband? Truth or dare?"
