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.))

Only words are effective at a distance. Charming as I might be, there is only so much that words can do.

[He matches that grin with a smirk, almost like a challenge.]

[noherald]

Oh? Is that an offer to show me what you can do without them, then?

[Look, no one has limitless willpower. Arhen is absolutely not immune.]

Because I might be inclined to take you up on it.

[serpentis]

[Oh, it's on.]

Perhaps I'm looking to take your words from your throat, to see if I can keep even a coherent sentence from leaving your lips. Would you still be so inclined, knowing that my intentions were so impure?

[And he smirks, pleased with himself.]

[noherald]

Of course I would. You're forgetting one very important detail, Dorian.

[Arhen's own grin is exceedingly self-satisfied, with all the air of someone who's fairly sure he's about to win.]

I know exactly what you like. If one of us is going to be left speechless, I don't think it'll be me.

[serpentis]

[Well. He can see why Dorian in Arhen's world liked him so much. He wasn't a shrinking flower of a man- despite his delicate appearance, he had teeth when he cared to show them.]

That sounds nearly like a challenge, Arhen. I invite you to do your best, as it were. You know how to find me, should you care to take me up on that invitation.
