"Why ya waiting for her? And I drunk 11 or so glasses last night. Tasted like strawberries....I'm surprised I didn't go out on the ball floor..." he said leaning against the wall after getting up.

"You... don't remember?" Luc gave a note of disapproval. "Probably for the best, for now. But to the real matter, I have something to discuss with her."

[Tyrant Sage]

"Mmmmm? Something I should remember? Anyway whaddya want to talk to her about? ooooooohhhh....."

"You're remarkably curious for someone who should be more concerned with trying to keep the noise down. But very well," Luc leaned in closer to whisper his next words. He didn't want Reika to hear them at all so Luc could have the advantage of surprise in the negotiations. Though there was the chance Alferis would blurt things out anyway. "A business deal." Luc drew back away.

[Tyrant Sage]

"Business deal? You're awfully dirty for a knight..." he said very quietly. "As her bodyguard, I'd like to know what kind of deal you're making with her....did she do ok at the ball last night?" he said clutching his head.

"It's unflattering how lowly you think of me. But perhaps, you haven't had the greatest of comparisons," Luc was appalled that he had suggested something like that. But it was within the acceptable limits. "You're her bodyguard hm? Well, it's something that she would be free to tell you about afterwords, but until then I shall keep it secret. As for her conduct, well, it wasn't the worst of everyone present so there's that." Luc had seen worse in similar events, and Alferis himself wasn't a contender for person of the evening.

[Tyrant Sage]

"Hope she did better than I did...what'd she do? Did she fight with someone or be rude to some nobles?" Alferis looked over Luc suspiciously. He was a knight and he was under no obligation to spread word not to spread word about her severing if he heard. Making a deal with Reika was pretty much unheard of in the group, let alone a knight.

What is this man after?

As the sunlight shone into his eyes, Damian awoke. Sitting upright with a yawn, he looked around. He was the only one in the room, lying in a decent sized bed.

'Good thing I stayed away from the drinks last night, else I'd be one of the poor saps with a blistering hangover...' Damian reminded himself thankfully. A small pulse in his head told him the punch must have been spiked, but that aside, it barely registered anyway.

Seeing his regular clothing was not with him, Damian figured it was likely still being held near the change rooms. Straightening his current clothing out, Damian exited the room, and entered the hallway.

'And there he is. Guess I won't need to look for him.' Damian noted, as Ixion walked down the hallway in his direction.

"Ixion." Damian called out, to get the dark druid's attention.

"I will do it. Teach me to control the Gae-Borg."

As the sunlight shone into her eyes, Aiya awoke.

"Owwwwww..." She whined out, the brightness of the morning sun sending a searing pain into her still recovering mind.

Burying her head under a blanket, she began to complain at herself.

"Nnagh! What an idiot? Why did I have so much alcohol...?" Aiya then remembered the shenanigans of the night before with Irina.

"Well, I guess I must be feeling better than Irina, at least..."

The Dark Lord of The Sith Ixion

Ixion: (Damian? Huh.)

Ixion stopped and turned to face Damian. The look on his face was exceptionally calm rather than stern. He seemed almost friendly for a change.

Ixion: So you've decided to accept my offer then? Well you aren't the only one. The headmaster was able to decide for herself that she would offer her weakness at least some resistance after our little talk. With that, I've decided to bring both of you should you choose to come back to the fortress in Halton. There I will do my best to help you master the Crimson Lance, and help the aloof one gain an edge over her own condition. With any fortune, I will succeed.

[Ether]

"The headmaster is going as well? That is likely a good thing, I suppose. Prolonged exposure to her oppressive mana network should help with my resistance to it, even if I don't train with her." Damian replied, seeing that the usually serious man seemed... happy?

"Anyway, I guess we will have to meet up somewhere. When and where do you want me? I'll assume we'll either warp or fly to the base."

****************

"I guess I should get out of bed..." Aiya told herself, bracing for the shining barrage that awaited her sensitive irises when she removed the shielding blanket from atop her.

"Three... two... one..."

The blanket's protective shade was gone.

"Nngh...! Stupid sun... why couldn't it have been cloudy? Okay... I can do this... I just need to get used to the light, and ignore the figurative poleax digging into my skull..."

"Alf!" exclaimed Esphyr, stopping her pawing at the vomit upon her shirt. "I don't want to be mean, but Rekia isn't exactly in the groups favor and you are a merc. What is your price?"

[Tyrant Sage]

"Price for letting him talk? Nnnhhhh....Don't see why. Although I'm low on cash....tell you what. You pay me 10 gold if you want to talk to her and if she doesn't tell me about what happened, you have to tell me afterward."

Ixion: After my meeting we will likely depart. If Stephanie is not with me when it is time to leave it would be best if one of you gathered her up.

Isotov

With Rita and Cess sitting at the table, Iso was left a bit startled.

Iso: (Okay ... this can only go badly or strangely. Just stay calm.)

[Psych]

Rita and Cess:

"Zzzzz. Mr. Nomad! Where are you! I had the worst nightmare that you were a woman! I guess I drank too much." Rita rolled off the table and fell asleep in Iso's lap.

Cess walked back over and began sipping his juice.

Charlotte woke up with a smile on her face and new resolve. She walked to the common area to find Esphyr pawing at the vomit on her shirt.

"Oh hello Esphyr. Jace is supposedly in his manor today, so you can go talk to him about the whole stealing business. May want to change your shirt, though I don't really care what he thinks."

Morgan woke up and furrowed her brow in frustration. What are we doing again? she thought to herself. What's the plan?

"Indeed. I need to talk to him." sighed Esphyr. "Charlotte. You have a spare shirt I can borrow? Don't worry if I don't fill it out, but I think you're right about the appearence."

[Script]

Luc Altair

Before Luc could respond, Esphyr had interrupted and brought to Aleris' attention payment. Luc didn't care for a price--the joys of tax and military money--but paying for it could easily be seen as Luc being overeager to talk to Reika. That wasn't a good idea. "Payment? Do you really think my business so important as for it to require money? Ha, how amusing, really," Luc dug out a small purse and brought out the coins. "Maybe it is, maybe it isn't."

[kdanger]

"Oi, isn't she your friend/sister/puppy/whatever?" Kelas asked Cess, irritated that he seemed to just be watching. She grabbed Rita's collar and hauled her upright again, shoving her so she wouldn't fall off the table again. "I think she needs a leash. I'm done eating, you ready to go?" she asked Isotov.

[Phoenix]

Isotov

Iso had actually managed to get some food in his stomach before Rita and Cess had arrived, and with a possible incident about to unfold, he was satisfied with just that. Lunch or dinner couldn't be that far away could it?

Iso: Yeah, I'm ready when you are.

[Tyrant Sage]

"I need to buy something very critical for me......Oh god it hurts....Good morning Charlotte....Sorry for being an ass last night."
