DRINKING AND DANCING | ALL MEMBERS INVITED

As much as Masin enjoyed dancing up on Zane, a little more than she thought she would, she turned to check on Emmy and caught site of her sitting on a couch, looking rather miserable. "Hey, hey Zane," she stopped, placing both of her hands on his chest to signal him to stop as well. "Em doesn't look so good... rain check?" she said, biting her lip, before moving away from him and finding her way to Em on the couch.

"Hey, you okay, babe?" she asked, sitting beside Emmy and putting a hand on her shoulder. Although, she did still glance back at Zane with hungry eyes for a moment... but she tried to focus on Em.

@emberlynn, @zane

"Oh, you know. Filing paperwork and sitting through meetings is dreadfully exciting." She said with a roll of her eyes. Really, the only good thing about this job is that she got to boss people around and they thought she was in charge. "Of course babe, why do you ask?" Putting her drink up to his lips and sliding over until she was almost sitting in his lap, Becca smirked. So what if the bartender already knew to make hers a little stronger. She was a professional, not a lightweight.

When he was done and she had finished her drink, Becca stood up, pulling on his hand slightly. "Come dance with me." A flash of her big bright smile and she was off, letting go of his hand and walking to the middle of the floor, hoping he would follow.

He smiled lazily at her.  "Anything to make it stop hurting," he said in regards to her quip about a prescription for a lonely heart.  And then she was asking him to dance, and he leaned over to sniff her neck as if their was perfume on it before pulling back.  She told him to dance with her.  "I'd be much obliged."  He took one last sip of his wine and then took her hand in his, got on his feet and off the chair, and lead her to the dance floor. 

@amaryllis

"Awe, you poor baby." She said with a mock seriousness, placing one arm around his neck and the other hand on his chest. "You just let me take care of that tonight and you'll be all better by the morning." It was almost unfortunate that the club decided to play a slow song before they even got started, but she took the opportunity to press herself closer to Bernie, swaying slowly in time with the music.

@bernard

Zane was left standing in the middle of the dance floor feeling a little abandoned, which shocked him. He shook his head, Was Masin always that...hot? Deciding that he needed to get out before things got weird, he followed after her to say his goodbye before leaving NYSA, "Hey, I think I'm going to head out..." He started, seeing that Ember Lynn really did look like she was about to be sick, "Are you okay? You look terrible."

@masin | @emberlynn

Masin looked up as Zane approached them, her mood sinking a little when he said he was leaving. She turned back to Em and nodded when Zane said she looked terrible. "Enough with the pleasantries," Masin turned back to Zane and reached over, clasping his wrist lightly. "Help me get her home?" she asked. This was a win win. She could make sure Em got home safely and she could also make sure Zane... got... somewhere... safely.

What was in the air around here!?

@zane @emberlynn

Bernie frowned slightly when the music changed to a slow one.  He usually preferred the more upbeat kind of music, but oh well, parties did have slow ones, too, and as a son of Dionysus it was only fair that he knew how to go along with it.  He also liked that she was pressed closely to him.  He put his hands on her waist and leaned his head slightly forward, placing his chin on her shoulder as he moved slowly to the music with her.  "So...do you party a lot?" he asked her.

@amaryllis

He tilted his head to one side and nodded, "Sure thing." A devilish grin graced his features and he helped push through the crowd and toward the door, letting Masin and the Chancellor follow behind him.

@masin & @emberlynn

(( woow so shoort ))

Tylar look at the sky, watching the star glitter like they were twinkling right at her, "Wow, really?" She sighed leaning back, "That's so much cooler than my mom." She laughed, running her fingers through her hair, which was damp from the hot, sweaty club. The damp tresses made her realize that she probably smelled terrible. Even though it was warm outside, the air felt cool on her exposed arms and she shivered slightly.

@pan

He laughed and shrugged, "I'm not so in to necrophilia and getting a girl drunk generally ends in passing out. Never as effective as it is in movies." Taze watched the band playing and narrowed his eyes, "My money is on the drummer. You can tell he's not as in to the music as the others..." He laughed and shook her head, running a hand through his already tousled hair, "But maybe he is just tired..."

@coriander

Cori smiled, chuckling a little as he talked about how getting girls drunk didn't work in movies. "Good, good. I'm glad that you're not like that," she said almost in a business like way, nodding her head many times as she spoke. She laughed at herself. She nodded as he suggested the drummer, "I think you're right. He stepped down earlier, I think..." she tried to recall... "Anyway, that's probably the main reason I actual let us dance," she looked back at him, "Well, and because you're so adorable," she chuckled.

@taze

"Yeah, my mom is pretty rad-hey," he said as he noticed her slightly shivering a little. It wasn't really even that cold outside. "Am I making you uncomfortable or do you just need a jacket?" he asked, smirking a little, for it was kind of a joke even though he really was quite serious about offering the jacket to her. He didn't want to just put it over her shoulders without asking first... wait, didn't guys do that? Gah, too late now.

@tylar

"When I can. I work nights because I enjoy being awake thing, but on my days off..." She let the thought slide as she waited for the music to pick up in tempo. Romantic wasn't exactly what she was feeling right now, even if this wasn't half bad. "What about you? Is this your nightly thing or do you have somewhere else to be?" Amaryllis was intrigued by this guy, that was for sure.

@bernard

Geoff chuckled and leaned over to give her a peck on the lips.  "But you're doing right by your siblings and bringing peace to the realm. You should be proud of yourself," he said.  He was very happy that she was a Magister like him.  They both had the same passion to making sure the island was full of tranquility, and he loved her all the more for it.  "The island is lucky to have someone as beautiful, talented, and kind as you are to care for it, let alone this useless son of Mercury."

He brought her cup to his lips and took a sip of it.  He put it down, shrugging.  "Well, it tastes the same," he remarked.  He was soon out of his seat and following her to the dance floor.  She was urging him to come dance with her, and that smile made him want to do anything that she wanted for her.  "I'm not the best dancer, but if it makes the person who I love the most in the universe happy."  Luckily, it was going to be a slow dance, and so he put a hand against the small of her back and with his other hand took her hand in his.  "Gods, Becca, you look beautiful," he said breathlessly.  "Who am I to deserve you?"  He could never have enough of her beauty, especially after some time of not being around her. 

"You, are a good man. Whatever you tell yourself...you know how I feel." In her own way, Becca did love Geoff. She loved his power, loved his potential. Some days she even convinced herself that she loved him for himself. This was not one of those days. Today he was a means to an end, someone she would probably marry one day so that she could rise up the social structure. If he ever let the dead weight that Accalia had caused in his heart fade away, Geoff could be chancellor some day. Becca had no doubt of that, and when he did, she would be there. Right behind him. Maybe she would even find a way to really love him, but for right now...she needed some fun and soon.
