Wedding Dance

[raihnstar]

This was the easiest part. Later she would have to change outfits, and dance with Victor in front of the audience... this was a piece of cake. She and her husband To Be stood besides each other, wearing identical smiles of merryment, and both looking stunning. She was decked out in a beautiful shimmering white gown that fluttered around her allthough there was no wind. The temperature was perfect, and the sun shone through the canopy of leaves, bathing everything in a golden soft light.

There was, of course, a decided unease in the crowd. There were several Night Fairy's and Light Fairy's, each trying to be on their best behavior and mostly avoiding each other. In a small, beautiful cluster in the corner the vampires were standing, chatting to each other with strange fluidity as always. They carried the same dangerous power that the Night Fairy's did.

The King and Queen were surrounded by diplomats, mages, subjects... For protection, to weedle something out of them, to gain favour...

There were a few lonely people scattered throughout the hall, of course, and they looked out with shadowed eyes, clearly not wanting to be here. All of them nursed fairy wine in their hands.

And of course...last but certainly not least...The wandermage. He hadn't been invited, merely showed up (as he always did, to events he deemed necessary). The Queen frowned slightly at the man, who was surrounded by people speaking to him. He was replying eagerly to all of them, causing gales of laughter, winking at some of her younger fairies, discussing things in quiet voices to a few of the guests that nobody else could hear, or tried to hear. The wandermage stuck his nose in everybody elses business, whether they asked for it or not, and usually managed to come out with whatever he'd wanted to achieve.

And Kassidy disapproved of him mightily. Somehow he managed to bed one of her ladies in waiting every time he came here, and not only that but he'd spoken against her about this wedding...and now he had the nerve to come!...Not that she'd expected him not to. Her eyes swept over the tiny crowd that surrounded Neil and her eyebrows rose an inch. He'd brought pixies to her wedding!! He was crossing boundaries, the jerk! If she found any jewels missing she'd know who to blame!

Kassidy tore her eyes away from the bunch forcefully and smiled dreamily at Victor, thanking her good acting skills yet again. A little chime sounded from above to get everybody's attention.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, Guests and Fairy's! You may now step forward to offer your congratulations to the King and Queen of Fairy land, and offer them a few words!

Kassidy groaned in her mind. This was the longets part of the night...standing here with that fake smile, listening to their false congratulations...

But it was the easiest.

["Parker!"]

It was a magnificent wedding. Everything was calm, people laughing, everyone seemed to be enjoying everything. Mostly everyone that should be here was. His dark faries were keeping themself controlled, he insisted that they be on their best behavior. They were doing okay, and most of the light fairies were good too- he smiled with amusement as he'd catch some glares from them. They were all pretty in shock, dissapointed, outraged, or rather quitet about the whole thing. They knew that she asked him first- and how could anyone resist to a beauty such as her?

As they were announced to be allowed a few words. He put his arm around Kassidy lovingly as his dark eyes adverted down to her's before flickering up to focus on anybody coming foward.

Izarus being who he was, was not alone this entire night, wheter it was with the other vampires, his new bretheren, Though he thought they were all a bit too gloomy, there immortality must've gotten to them. oh well he was in their numbers now.

Izarus looked around at all of the glasses of wine that the others were drinking, He kind of missed food, but blood was pretty tasty too. He looked down to his chest as he fixed his suit coat. He really hated suits, but people said he pulled them off. He had on a pinsriped suit with a baby blue dress shirt and a pink tie of all things.

He sighed as he smiled down to Taylor when the annoucement came on. "Well i must go congratulate them." He looked up and made his way to the front to speak with the queen fairy and the king fairy. He cleared his throat as he bowed. a smile on his face as he walked closer to them. His pearly white fang sticking out for all to see.

"I am so happy to hear that you two have resolved your diffferences and found happiness. I trust this means no more war correct? You are probably aware of my intentions on stepping in, but now that you have solved it, i can rest easy. Let's hope it stays this way." Izarus grinned as he stood tall totally unfazed by their political power, he may have worked for the king and queen, yet he still saw everybody the same way. people.

[raihnstar]

((Yet he still saw everybody the same way. People. That he could eat. *cough*))

Kassidy smiled brilliantly at Izarus, well aware that her own counsul was listening. "We think of the war's end as more of a bonus, to be honest." she said breathily, but her tone took on a hint of an edge when she continued, "If it had not been for my and Victors love the war would have gone on indeffinitely...no matter what your good intentions were, Peacemaker." she ended this with a short smile and a quick lfit of the eyebrows. She grinned up at Victor following that statement, hoping he found it as amusing as she did that the humans continually tried to interfere in their wars. She smiled back at Izarus, "You'll find we're not so easily persuaded or dissuaded into doing things."

[charismaticcryo]

"Hey look it's Victor! lets go over there!"
"not just yet Korrex, he is busy with guests." Rorek nodded to the white haired man and the others in line behind him.

Rorek took a small sip of his wine, and scanned the crowd, he was rather alone at the moment, he had just got here after all. This was what he usually did at social event, hung back till he accessed the crowd.

Rorek's turquiose orbs scanned the crowd behind his rectangular frames. His white hair falling neatly around his head, and yet it had an air of style as it stuck up in some areas. He had on an elegant white suit that was made from a soft white material. it was almost blinding how white it was. he of course sported his usual long dress coat that hung around his calves and buttoned around his navel. every about Rorek screamed elegance and sophistication. hard to believe someone like Korrex was also in that head.

["Parker!"]

Victor let Kassidy speak her mind to mister Bouef. A new vampire he was, very nice man indeed. His intentions were only for the better. He nodded at Kassidy then to Izarus with a brilliat smile,

"Thank you for your regards, Mr. Bouef."

He nodded as he gave and amused smile- even though he wasn't that amused. It was quite rude to say you would interver with a war that did not concern you or your race. He passed it by though, not showing any distaste at all.

[rawr small.]

[charismaticcryo]

Izarus nodded as he turned to leave. A smile on his face. He had more senses for public affiars now, and yet he purposely said that he would intervene in something that was not his buisness, that was just who he was. Up front and never lying.

Samantha, spymaster of the king and Queen, hung back in a corner moodily. Most of Lady Knight's guard had gone to surround the edges of the forest, and Lady Knight herself was chatting it up with some other wind spirit that happened to be present, leaving Sam quite alone. Her eyes drifted back and forth through the people, examening them with interest and keeping notes of who seemed the most aware, who seemed the least aware, who kept closest to royalty, who hung back. A stately man had just arrived, and like her, was looking over the people with interest. Curiously, and rather uncharacteristically, she wove her way through the crowd until she reached him. "Finding everything well enough, then?" she asked, her eyebrows raised slightly. It was slightly chillier where he was... enough to raise goosebumps on Sam's flesh, but she payed it no mind. After all, she was used to the icy winds of the North. The cold didn't bother her.

The Spymaster beamed up at Rorek cheekily, linking her hands behind her back. She was wearing a purple dress veiled with black lace, and heels. Which she hated. Heels stopped her from running, and...stuff. Mostly they made her taller, though, which was fortunate, considering that she wasn't /really/ the tallest person in the world. And she needed stature to level with these people. "I saw you looking." She clarified after a moment of silence.

((okay so Iz is a vampire now? *doesn't know what happend but sees the connection between ex vampire girlfriend* Okay i can deal with that. Oh and if Neil or anyone *coughDaxcough* should wnat inside info...Jamie is the most excellent spy in the world ^_^ She can turn into animals too since she's all growed up ^_^))

<sub>Pink eyes scanned the room, spotting more than one point of white hair. He grimaced, his eyes avoiding the place where his heart stood. He feared if he looked at her he would die from the shock of it all. He made his way towards Loki who was wearing a white tux with a black tie. He said it brought out the black of his eyes more. Dax sighed, grabbing his friend arm and leaning close. He whispered something to his ear.

"Put it back...I saw you, we are not here to steal things Loki. Try not to fill you're pockets with anything we didn't come in with. Please."

Dax sighed heavily, clapping Loki's shoulder. Dax himself was wearing a black suit with a light pink undershirt and purple satin tie. His eyes sparkled brillinatly in the lighting, his purple gelled hair was like strange fire. Of course their wings were free on both Loki and Dax, in case they needed to make a quick get-a-way. That was a noticable difference between Pixies and Fairies. Fairie's wings were like butterfly wings, extending from the back, while Pixie wings were more like moth wings and trailed down the back. Occassionaly Pixie wings were like dragonfly wings and couldn't be retracted to a down state, other pixie's were born with stranger types of wings, fairies too were sometimes born with odd wings, but for the most part Pixie wings almost seemed like tailcoats from the shoulder to the back of their legs, ready to snap up in a moments notice. Loki shrugged, hand slipping fluidly from his pocket and replacing a vase. How the thing ever fit in his pocket was far beyond Dax's understanding, but Loki had trained himself in special sorts of theif magics. Dax sighed, moving away. He bumped into someone and turned to appologize, almost moving away before the person caught his arm. He turned, looking at the woman seriously. She was stunning, but as he watched her her looks changed and his mind turned around the name 'Jamie'.

"Dont look so surprised, I do this all the time. Anyway, about the girl. Is it true? I mean, Neil's talked about you a few times, sad story. I wanted to know if I could do anything to help?"

The long brown haired blue eyed girl in front of him was how he remembered first meeting Jamie, but it didn't last for long and she tossed back electric blue hair, light emerald green eyes dazzeling him. It was such a strange combination but it matched so well. Her dress was a thin thing, almost transparent and a soft blushing pink right down to her knees, perfectly formed calves running down into strappy magenta heels. He looked her up and down. What a strange woman. Jamie smiled innocently though, a sort of 'cheer up' smile. Still the same old Jamie from High School.</sub>

((Pleeeeeeease someone talk to Loki, I wnat to play him soooo badly!!!! and anyone is free to come up to Jamie and Dax, especially Neil ^_^))

[raihnstar]

Neil had been listening solemnly to a night fairy speak for about five minutes, when he suddenly whispered something into his ear which made the fairy burst into loud laughter. The weather mage grinned at him and walked off, to be immediately mobbed by about ten more people. Another ten minutes passed and /finally/ Neil managed to pull away by glaring at anybody who got near. The mage was indisposed. Or...out for lunch, or something. He stumbled towards Dax, taking a few quick breaths, "Sorry, sorry! Couldn't get away." he apollogized hastily, wincing when his hair sparked and popped loudly. Silently, he wished there weren't so many trees here, and glanced up to where the King and Queen were thanking guests for their congratulations. "We'll have to go up soon, you know. It's required of all of us. Especially of me, seeing as how I wasn't exactly...ah...invited." he shrugged and flashed Dax an encouraging smile.

There was a little gaggle of women trailing him surreptitiously and he glanced back at them, winking with merry blue eyes. They giggled and walked away, but not before he caught the eye of one of them, asking a question with his eyes. The fairy girl blushed and nodded before sprinting off to join her friends. Neil wasn't sure if he bedded a new girl every time he came here because it was fun for /him/, or because it was fun to watch the Queen's expression of fury when she saw him leave with one of them. The fairy's themselves didn't mind his promiscuousness, because they were quite the ah...free spirits, themselves. "She probably won't be happy I've brought a pixie to the wedding-- TWO pixies to the wedding...so try to be on your best behavior. That includes Loki, too." he added, glancing at the pixie, who was making a b-line towards a small table with magical artifacts on them.

There was a small pop besides him, and a little fairy sat on his shoulder, "Wandermage. Surpised to see you here." she drawled and then giggled. Miiera looked at his company, "Who's /she/?" she asked of Jamie jealously. Neil flicked her off his hsoulder with two fingers (gently, but not gently enough that she'd stay on), and she reappeared besides them larger. She'd been about to comment on Jamie again, but Dax had caught her attention now. "...Do I know you?" she finally asked, "I...have I seen you before?" she asked, her voice troubled. Where had she seen him? Something to do with the Queen, of course...but...who was he?! She frowned, trying to remember.

[charismaticcryo]

((Yep Izarus is a vampire now!))

Rorek was taking another slow sip of wine when he noticed movement, well everybody was moving, he noticed somebody keep moving, in his direction. He was about to ask Korrex if he noticed the woman also, but like always Korrex was seeing and thinking as he was.

"Don't look now Rorek I think someone wants to talk to you! and she is quite the looker!"
"What she is just a looker? She isn't hot or anything?"
"Oh don't get me wrong I would mount her faster than a horny dog, but she looks too pretty to just call hot out right."


Rorek smiled to himself as he watched the woman close in on him. He lowered his glass as he looked down to her. When she said she asked if he was finding everything alright he just smiled and looked around once before fixing his gaze back on her.

"Yeah I think I am, I am just watching everybody for now. I slightly new to this land and this is the first royal wedding i have been to. Well im sure this is the first one alot of these people have been to. seeing as weddings don't happen that often. What about you? you must've been looking around as well to have noticed me. or do i just stick out?" He asked looking down to his white clothes

[ßlue]

<sub>Jamie stepped back, hand leaving Dax's wrist as Neil took over, talking, jamie eyeing the woman behind him with no emotion. She didn't like them, but knew since she hadn't taken an anonymous fairy form tonight she couldn't try and sneek into his bed when he was drunk. Looks like she was sleeping with the dog tonight. The dog being Loki. She wondered a little what it was like to bed a pixie and couldn't help flashing a smile around at her secret thoughts. Her green eyes flashed to the small fairy who sat on Neil's shoulder after he shooed away his followers. Word of him spread fast. She smiled at the fairy, especially pleased when she was flicked from his shoulder. She crossed her arms, scanning the room drousily and keeping a close eye on things. She spotted Loki and gave Neil a brief 'gotta watch him' look before turning away to keep him out of trouble.

Dax watched as Jamie left, looking back to the fairy as she asked if she knew him. His heart tightened. If she remembered him, wouldn't Kassidy? Couldn't she convince her? His hope was snuffed out. They had to do this somehow, and if a fairy went raving to the queen that she was in love with a pixie it would not help his cause. He simply bowed to her graciously, being humble.

"N...No, I dont think we've ever met, but if you happen to remember, tell me, will you?"

dax gave a small charming smile, some of the charm Loki had brushing off on him. Loki may be a womanizer, but he did have charm when he wanted.</sub>

[raihnstar]

"Either, or." she answered him criptically, grinning. "My friends have all left me and I've got to find a way to entertain myself. Decided I'd find a person who seems to enjoy watching people as much as I do." she told him cheerfully, letting her eyes propel over the crowd again, hearing tidbits of conversations that her ears were sending her and storing them in her brain. "What's your name? I'm Sam." she introduced herself informally, finding her last name bothersome and unnecessary. "Samantha, actually. But that's too many syllables for me to swallow." She grinned, and half rose her eyebrows when an interesting bit of information reached her ears. "Are you quite sure? Put a tick in his ear, then." she said to...well...apparently nobody. But she was speaking to the wind. She looked back at Rorek, as if this was perfectly normal.

"Yes, fairy weddings don't happen very often, you know. Since they're immortal. I don't think I'd particularly like being immortal. Too much trouble to bother with." she admitted, and then her eyebrows rose again and she snorted at what she heard. "Well...I doubt anything important will come of it, but keep a tick on him, too." The conversations she kept having were similar to those people with the wireless cellphones walking around talking loudly in supermarkets. You weren't quite sure they were crazy until you got up close enough tosee the phone...only...she wasn't wearing a phone.

[charismaticcryo]

"Oh throw out the line. I won't leave you. Babe. She will love it!"

Rorek just ignored him as he listened to her. she introduced herself, first with a short version of her name then the full version, minus the last name. "Pleasure to meet you samantha. Or if you want i can just call you sam if you prefer."

Rorek was about to ask something else when she got this look in her face like she was listeneing to something, and then started talking to herself.

"Did you see what i saw? she is just as crazy as you?"
"I'm not crazy i have somebody talking to me when i respond verbally."
"Yeah but they don't know that."

SHe continued on to talk about immortality, and how she wouldn't like to be immortal. when she got the same listnening look and talked to herself or something again.

"Excuse me for asking, but who is it that you are talking to?"

[raihnstar]

Neil turned his head to look after Jamie, confused for a moment, then turning back with a shrug towards Dax and Miiera, who was looking insanely annoyed at herself. "Where have I seen you before?!" she muttered angrily, glaring at Neil as if it was his fault. Neil shrugged, "Maybe in Magikus?" he suggested lazily, keeping his eyes on the Queen. They would have to go up soon...

"Magikus? Maybe..." Miiera murmured, and then snapped her fingers, "Oh yeahhh! You were that boy that the Queen had an ultimate crush on!" she grinned at him. "Long time no see! Tough luck about her marrying another man, huh?!" she giggled, turning back and glancing at Victor sneakily, "He's /cute/ doncha think?" she asked Neil. Neil was looking at the man stonily, "Very handsome." he finally managed to spit out through a clenched jaw. Miiera raised her eyebrow, "Oh, did you have eyes for the Queen too, then?" she asked snarkily. "Personally I prefer her choice of men /now/. She's much too amazing for the likes of a pixie."

Neil glared at her, his eyes crackling angrily, "Is she now?" he said shortly. Miiera winced and then shrugged, "Fine, if you're going to be like that..." she popped out of existance a moment later, leaving Neil looking quite annoyed at himself for losing his temper. "Sorry, Dax." he apollogized for the fairy, feeling miserable for the pixie. "We'll just...get this over with. I probably shouldn't have brought you here..."
