003 // we waltz on your front porch

[serpentis]

Who: Dorian
Broadcast: Fleet-wide!
Action: USE A GODDAMN MINGLE LOG I HAVE TOP LEVELS IN ALL OF THEM kids these days
When: 2/14, night

[Drift fleet, are you ready? Here is your resident charming mage, looking extra charming tonight. He smiles, almost victoriously.]

I do hope you all know how to dance. I have managed to secure an open invitation for myself, and however many guests I wish, to a gala in seven days, on Adsum. Hopefully it's not entirely dull, but they would need at least three murders to make for an exciting evening...I wouldn't hold my breath, were I you.

Do let me know if you're interested. And I warn you, you had better make yourself fit for being seen in public.

[To Jove]
I do hope you have a proper gown.

[To Arhen]
How would you care for a party?

((OOC: Gala IC post! The gala log itself will be posted next Saturday. Also, Dorian is currently afflicted with the pheromones malfunction. Do with that as you will.))

[It's okay Dorian, Kaneis can be your new daddy. It don't matter they're the same age! ]

Glad to hear it.

[There's a pause before he speaks again, his tone a bit lighter but sincere]

And...I will hope for the best. That your homeland will get that poison rooted out of it- as you put it.

I'd imagine it'd take a lot of work, like change in anyone's homeland. But...it's by no means impossible.

[He doesn't know if Dorian is the sort who is already planning to try to change their home. Maybe he is, or maybe he's someone that wants to just sit and complain. Either way, a gentle nudge of hope can hardly hurt]

[Dorian nods softly.]

I will return there, one day, and set it right. I may give my life for it, but...if anyone can change Tevinter, it is me.

[wilder]

That's the spirit. I wish you well. [He nods, he approves! +2]

Though...for now, uh, I don't suppose you're too busy with the whole Gala business to take on appointments are you?

Video

[serpentis]

I suppose I have time for one or two. Just let me know when.

Video

[wilder]

Haha...really probably the sooner the better.

[He pulls on a lock of his hair. If anything...his hair does not seem as long and full as usual, though what remains has been tied back to hide from view so the damage isn't as noticeable]

Turns out dramatic haircuts don't end up looking as good as writers make it sound.

[Dorian makes a small face, sighing.]

Kaffas, don't tell me you took a knife to your hair. Why can't anyone use a pair of scissors? Maker, what have I done to deserve this?

Video

[wilder]

C'mon. If we could use scissors, you'd never have customers.

Besides, I just wanted to try it! For symbolism and ratings and...all that. I left plenty on to work with!

[serpentis]

I suppose I cannot fault a man for wanting a bit of drama, but I can only hope that knife hair cutting doesn't become a trend. It's bad enough that Fenris does it. At least he manages to look presentable.

I can return to the Three Twins tonight, if you wish.

[wilder]

Don't worry. It was fun, but I won't encourage others for your sake.

Thanks. You're a lifesaver.
