THE GALA ON ADSUM (Mingle Log)

[serpentis]

Who: Anyone and Everyone!
Broadcast: Nope!
Action: A ballroom on Adsum
When: 2/21, Evening-Night



[And the night has arrived! Dorian put out an open invitation, and anyone who is interested is welcome to dress up and meet up for a night of dancing and fawning over each other. Make sure to wear your best, everyone! It's a very special episode of Drift Fleet!]

((OOC: There was an open invitiation, but even if your character never replied or has had personal contact with Dorian, feel free to assume he's let them come along or be dragged along by someone else! I'll be tagging some threads, but if you want a thread to be closed, please just say so in the header.))

Well, that was the downside of having everyone want to sleep with me. Got tiresome, eventually.

[heresyandlace]

[heh. his grin only sneaks wider.]

Ah, I suppose it might... if you aren't used to dealing with that on a regular basis.

[onlyanapple]

It's less not being used to it and more of the fact it was clearly Atroma-based shenanigans causing it.

[heresyandlace]

Mm, of course. What fun is there in a rigged game?

[onlyanapple]

Exactly. I won't feel like I've earned it.

[heresyandlace]

Is that what you're up to tonight? ...Looking to earn it?

[onlyanapple]

I'm out to get drunk off my face, actually. [He flashes Tek a sharp toothed grin.] But hey, if I earn myself a little nookie in the process, I won't be all that broken up about it.

[heresyandlace]

[he was going to say something clever, something sly... but he suddenly trips over one of the words coming out of Crowley's mouth, and kind of cracks apart into giggling.]

'Nookie?' What a ridiculous word! ...Please tell me you don't actually call it that...

[onlyanapple]

Depends on the situation really.

[He shrugs, sulking a little because boy does he not enjoy being laughed at. ]

[heresyandlace]

[oh, the sulking is positively adorable. and Tek reaches out to place a light hand on Crowley's arm, almost reassuringly. which is something he doesn't really do. maybe he's trying to manipulate him or something.]

Oh, don't frown. It doesn't suit you at all.

[onlyanapple]

[Yeah, Crowley's looking at that hand as if he's expecting it to start..oozing something. ]

Who said I was frowning? This could just be my face.

[heresyandlace]

[he takes his hand back as if it had never been there in the first place... though his smirk widens a little.]

Well, whatever it's doing... it looks much better when it's smiling.

You should go back to that.

[onlyanapple]

[So rude. He'll start smiling. Stepford-ly.]

Is that better~

[heresyandlace]

[still grinning, he shudders.]

Oh! ...No, you did somehow make it worse.

[onlyanapple]

[ Crowley's stepford smile turns into one of his regular shit-eating smirks.]

Careful what you wish for, Tek.

[heresyandlace]

Yes, yes. Lesson learned; you've made your point.

[but that grin sticks around, especially now that Crowley is matching it again.]

[onlyanapple]

Are you certain? You don't need a lesson recap, or anything?

[heresyandlace]

Oh, I am absolutely positive.

...It would be a shame to mess up your current expression, anyway. It looks too good on you.

[FLIRT flirt flirtflirt flirt...]

[onlyanapple]

[He chuckles.]

My, aren't we turning on the charm today?

[heresyandlace]

Naturally.

I wouldn't want you to feel less interesting now that you're not drawing admirers in like a giant magnet.

[not that he actually thinks Crowley's ego is in any danger.]

[onlyanapple]

[That would, admittedly, take a rather mighty blow for his ego to be even slightly dented.]

How considerate of you. I never knew you were such a bleeding heart.

[heresyandlace]

Oh, yes. I am a very kind-spirited creature. I like to help.

[can't you tell by the smile?]

[onlyanapple]

[Such a smile, he approves of that smile. ]

I can tell. You're such a helper.

[heresyandlace]

[see, this is why he likes this little demon, on occasion. Crowley makes this kind of thing effortless and fun, when he's not being a crab.]

Well, now that there is no longer anything toying with my mind or affections... is there anything else you'd like help with?

[onlyanapple]

[Crowley flashes Tek a sharp-toothed grin.]

Oh? Are you offering?
