*this is a transcript of a live roleplay*

<Dulce Periculum> Dulce Periculum felt the pull of what was a final sign this was happening. Sada was insistent this was what one wore to Mardi Gras in Rio. Dulce was still questioning it. Last she heard Sada had never been out of Canada. It was a good thing she was being summoned because she was certain there was no transportation that she could possibly fit into. The dark eyed female said to smile a lot and to be happy. What had she gotten into? With a slight stretch of her neck she did just that. With pearly whites blindingly bright she walked in with Hantu. http://www.remezcla.com/wp-content/uplo ... 914523.jpg


<Cristiana> “Oh hello!” Cristiana is surprised as she comes out of the office carrying a tray of drinks toward the sectioned off VIP area. "I will be right back. Just making sure the performers are getting everything they need."


<Hantu Raya> Hantu Raya Dressed up in his morbidly papal costume, his infernal excellence, also known as Hantu Raya, accompanied his wife into the Metronome club his dark costume an interesting contrast to her gaudy colors. http://i.imgur.com/gCan9cv.jpg


<Dulce Periculum> Dulce Periculum felt like a float landed on her from a misguided parade. She rolled her shoulders back and leaned into Hantu to whisper in his ear. "Who are the guys in the robes behind you?"


<Hantu Raya> “These are the ghouls “


<Cristiana> Cristiana comes back out less one tray looking at the couple that entered into the building a tad early. It was a good thing she came prepared for early arrivals. "Greetings! Don't you two look darling?" Since she knew Dulce, she offered a hand to Hantu, "You must be her other half. She speaks so highly of you."


<Dulce Periculum> Dulce Periculum nodded and then sent her icy blues to the one responsible for such an event. “Thank you for the invitation." Her brows found each other briefly at her forehead as she looked to Hantu. He went rather quiet.


<Cristiana> Cristiana smiled brightly at Dulce, "Oh this is one of many. You are welcomed in here at any time though."


<Dulce Periculum> Dulce Periculum smiled gazing around. "I shall remember that." If she didn’t tip over then the night would be a success. "Please feel free to come with Quoth and visit the restaurant as well."


<Cristiana> Cristiana nods, "I will have to sometime, although I don't think it would be his cup of tea. Sitting there watching me eat, but I will most certainly be there."


<Dulce Periculum> Dulce Periculum eyed the crowd growing at the bar. "I shall give the staff word to expect you. If you would pardon me, I think a drink may be a good place to start." She winked at the woman as she stepped back and turned hoping as she made her way there she didn't sideswipe anyone unknowingly as the beast of a costume went with her.


<Cristiana> Cristiana waved her off as she went to find a drink at the bar. A few of the flame throwers lite the way toward the bar for her, careful not to set the outfit on fire.


<Cristiana> Cristiana waves to Zoey as she comes in. Another early guest arriving.


<Zodiac> Zodiac *waves back as she awakens*


<Cristiana> Cristiana waves to Zo, heading over she hugged the woman tightly to her. "Lovely to see you." Seeing Doc she smiled and waved, "Hello Mr. Doc."


<Cristiana>Cristiana smiles and waves to Nix, the feathers catching her in the mouth. She blew them out trying to lick her dry lips. "Oh this outfit might not have been the best of choices! Hello Nix."


<Phoenix> Phoenix grinned to Crissy, offering a wiggle of her fingers. "Hey. I'm sure you can hack the feathers off if need be."


<Cristiana> Cristiana chuckles despite the get up she is wearing. "I suppose but it is supposed to be more festive and less annoyance."


<Doc> Doc who had entered as quietly as possibly nodded to Cristiana who made note of his entrance. He was dressed in his usual business suit, along with a mask that he wore. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v36/a ... phomet.jpg


<Cristiana> Dulce and Zoey were here at one point. I do hope they will return.

<Cristiana>Cristiana heads over to Doc holding out a bunch of beads to him, she smiles as she offers them to him. "Guys are the ones who hand out the beads tonight." Cristiana gives him purple, gold and green glass handmade beads.


<Phoenix> Phoenix snickering, she smoothed down the sides of her feather-patterned dress, trying not to seem too amused. http://tinyurl.com/mfc9qnh


<Doc> Doc grins behind his mask, "Thank you...” He turns his attention and Nix and dangles the beads... "What ya say?"


<Phoenix> I've got nothing to flash.


<Cristiana> Cristiana chuckles. "Do you know the meaning of those Mr. Doc?"


<Phoenix> Phoenix pressed her lips into a frown. "Unless you're into 12 year old boys... Then I'm sure I've got exactly what you're after."


<Doc> Doc is grinning as he turns back to Cristiana, "If I say no... Will you demonstrate?"


<Vasik> “I'M HERE TO PARTAY!!!" A young, fiery-headed boy burst through the doors, donning a red shirt and black tie with shiny black dancing shoes.


<Doc> Oh god.


<Cristiana> Cristiana grabs another set of the purple, gold and green beads heading over to Vasik, "Here you are Mr. Vasik. Men are the keeper of the beads tonight! You will know who to hand them out too." She glanced to Doc laughing, "Maybe to my husband... "


<Vasik> "Hey, shut the **** up old geezer."


<Zodiac> Zodiac *blinks back awake* who let Richie Cunningham escape?


<Phoenix> Phoenix blinked. "What are the beads for?"


<Cristiana> Cristiana looks at the two keeping a mental note to watch them, "Ok the beads have some meaning..."


<Vasik> Vasik "Hmm, this'll be fun... Can we pass them out to other men or just the women?" He winked in Doc's direction.


<Zodiac> Zodiac *looks at Doc-giggles*


<Doc> Doc sighs. He turns an exasperated look at Zodiac. "Et tu


<Cristiana> Cristiana explains, "The purple was for Justice. The gold was for power. The last color, green was for faith. When you see someone exhibiting these behaviors reward them with a set of beads."


<Zodiac> No, no. just tell me later


<Doc> Doc’s gaze snapped back to Cristiana, "What the ****? I thought you got flashed..."


<Phoenix> Phoenix opened her mouth to say something, then snapped it shut before hiding a fit of giggles behind her hand. "If someone deserves a good slap, is that considered doling out justice?"


<Cristiana> Cristiana chuckles, "If a girl is so willing I think it will show ... Faith!"


<Vasik> "Alright, thanks baby. Here's one for you." Vasik loops the gold one around her neck, still around his as well. "Woops, seems like we're stuck."


<Zodiac> Zodiac that’s a gold set, cause boobs equal power *laughs*


<Doc> "It's clear it is going to be one of those nights...”

<Cristiana> Cristiana looks to Nix and nods, "I think that is a perfect example!"


<Phoenix> "A night you get the **** slapped out of you? Think so, Doc."


<Zodiac> Now, now. He is just being a man.


<Phoenix> "Even more reason."


<Doc> Doc looks at Zodiac, "See... feast or famine... it's obvious it a famine night."


<Zodiac> Zodiac *pats his shoulder in sympathy*


<Vasik> "Bahahaha!" Vasik untwined himself from the necklace and turns to Zodiac, "How about a dance beautiful?"


<Phoenix> Phoenix "I'm sure that one's got something for you," she wiggled a finger in Vasik's direction.


<Zodiac> “Besides a bad rash? *looks at the young man curiously*


<Cristiana> Cristiana chuckles watching on, getting another set of beads ready in case someone else decided to join in on the festivities.


<Doc> "yea... He's the Spawn's larva... he knows better."


<Vasik> "Maybe you could teach me." He grabs Zodiac's hands, winking.


<Zodiac> “Perhaps in a while, I will like to dance, but not now. Thank you for asking though”


<Vasik> "I have faith you will." He wraps a green necklace around Zodiac's neck.

<Zodiac> “Why thank you” *smiles brightly*


<Cristiana> “Aww now that is sweet!”


<Cristiana> “And here my Queen Ho Zo thought the only beads she was going to get were mine.”


<Zodiac> “That is two so far!”


<Cristinia> Cristiana smiles and waves at Soleil as she joins in the party. "Hello! Welcome to the Mardi Gras Extravaganza."


<Phoenix> “The ladies should definitely get beads to give out.”


<Cristiana> “Well I thought of getting pink beads for the women to give out.”


<Vasik> "I agree."


<Phoenix> Symbolizing what?


<Zodiac> “I ain't touching that one”


<Cristiana> Cristiana motions with a nod toward a box half hidden behind the end of the bar.


<Vasik> * Vasik swoops over to investigate.


<Zodiac> “Oh dear, Doctor Nilson. Have an eye towards the exit?


<Cristiana> Cristiana thinks it over "If the girl thinks the guy is worthy enough to get them!"


<Zodiac> Zodiac define worthy

<Cristiana> “Soooo... if you guys want to whip those ones out, then by all means be my guest!”


<Vasik> "If Doc stays I see that as worthy. So Doc, you want some pink beads dangling around thy neck?"


<Phoenix> Phoenix snickered.


<Doc> "What... and leave all the lovely ladies to him? Pfft. I just want to look... plain and simple... and I may get slapped in the process." then Vee "Sure...”


<Zodiac> Zodiac *inspects the necklaces* “Pretty”


<Cristiana> Cristiana goes over and pulls out the box of pink beads, gives a handful to the females in the room.


<Phoenix> “Slapping is so cliché.” Phoenix wrapped the pink beads around her wrist.


<Cristiana> Stylish Nix, very stylish!


<Phoenix> “May as well use 'em until someone worthy waltzes by!”


<Cristiana> Cristiana waves to her someday to be future daughter in law. "Hello Klara."


<Cristiana> “And where is Simon this evening?”


<Zodiac> Zodiac *slips the assortment into her belt sash and lets hang for easy finding*


<Doc> Doc half turns at the name, a grin widening behind his mask.


<Klara> Klara waves to Crissy "Not sure, I haven't talked to him, he's probably held up playing his new guitar I got him. I left him a text so we shall see if shows up”

--The following transcript was a live chat roleplay--

<Cristiana>Cristiana looks to Zo with a grin. "I do believe you owe me some beads..."


<Klara> “Can I do anything?”


<Zodiac> “This is true, but all I have is pink” *laughs as she drapes a set around Crissy's neck*


<Cristiana> “Ohhhh have some pink beads the girls get to hand out to the guys. The guys have purple, gold and green... “


<Zodiac> “I need a gold yet”


<Cristiana> Cristiana wears the pink beads proudly. "Oh baby! And you know I earned them!"


<Zodiac> “Yes, you did. So brave you was” *giggles*


<Klara> smiles and shakes her head


<Cristiana> Cristiana wiggles her brows, before winking. She set off to have the help start handing out the drinks specially made for this evening. "Drinks are served. Remember, dark glasses for those ... who have tolerances."


<Zodiac> “Ooh, thank you” *takes a glass*


<Phoenix> Phoenix slipped over to collect a glass before taking a dainty sip. "I'd love a tolerance..."


<Klara> “Crissy, Where's Quoth? I don't think he liked my costume suggestion”


<Vasik> "Mmm, much obliged." After taking a sip, Vasik licks his lips to the direction of Klara, winking.


<Klara> Klara giggles going to get her own glass


<Doc> Doc leers at Zodiac from behind his mask, spinning beads around his hands, "What do you say."


<Zodiac> Zodiac *grins a bit* “Well Doctor. You are simply a cornucopia of surprises sometimes”


<Cristiana> Cristiana shrugged, "He will be here shortly." She noticed someone else joined in the party. Since she didn't know him, she went over with a group of beads in hand offering a bright smile, "Hello and Welcome to the Metronome Club. The men get beads to hand out to the ladies in green, gold and purple. The women get pink beads to hand out." she motions toward the pink set she wore.


<Vasik> "So Klara, what do you say? A toast?"


<Doc> “You give me way too much credit... but alright... " he nods toward a corner.. "Looks private..."


<Klara> “A toast! What should we toast too?”


<Zodiac> “Private? Son, you gonna make history here.” *gets up and moves to where he sits. Pushes his drink over and sits on the end of his table*


<Phoenix> “Axel!”


<Vasik> Vasik crosses drink arms with hers. "To beauty."


<Cristiana> Cristiana grabs another set of beads and a glass of Tiger Paw wondering what the heck was even it in.


<Vasik> Vasik *Stares deeply into Klara's eyes*


<Axel Rosen> As the beads are handed to him he just sort of looks down at them with a rather confused look on his face. Social interaction is something he really only tolerates for the benefit of others. His head nods once, thinking he understands and then makes his way over to Nix. She seems to have spotted him already, but, then again, he's rather hard to miss.


<Phoenix> Phoenix beamed, abandoning the drink table to make her way to Axel and unwinding one of the pink sets of beads from around her wrist. Once she'd reached her partner, she looped the necklace around his neck and carefully pulled the man in for a light kiss.


<Klara> Klara smiles and blushes "Um to beauty”


<Zodiac> Zodiac *takes one of her pink sets and drapes it over Doc's neck. Glances about then smiles as she undoes her top and gives the Doctor a five second viewing, she then buttons up quickly* “Only man in this town who ever got that view.”


<Doc> “Well in that case...” Doc leans back, and get comfortable. "I am not going to complain...” As she drapes the beads, he lets his eyes rape her for five full seconds, "You sure you're only into women?"


<Vasik> Vasik dinged glasses and took his drink, gulping it down in one go. He released his arm from Klara. "How about a dance?"


<Axel Rosen> As her beads go around his neck, he kisses her back. His hand holds unto the item that Cristiana had given him a few moments ago. As the kiss parts he figures it's probably appropriate to place the ones he has around her neck. Doing so, he makes a side shift to stand beside her, and look over the crowd.


<Cristiana> Cristiana looks at Zo gasping wide eyed, wondering if anyone else seen that. Instead of making a scene, she gulps down the drink in one gulp proud of her Queen Ho Zo mama. Getting out there and socializing.


<Zodiac> “Ah, I think the real question is-I think you are still married, dear” *smiles softly*


<Klara> Klara takes a sip of her drink "That sounds nice" taking his arm as they went to the dance floor


<Doc> Doc quietly, with reverence, draped all three of his beads about Zodiac's neck. "Not so much famine after all.”


<Zodiac> “Thank you, kind sir”


<Phoenix> Phoenix had seen Zo's little show out of the corner of her eye, but her mind seemed to refuse to process it. Instead, she simply laced her fingers with Axel's and sipped her glass. "I didn't think you'd come, but I'm glad you did."


<Doc> Doc is still processing what just happened...


<Vasik> As the song slowed down to a halt, Vasik wrapped a set of beads around Klara's neck, purple. "I think you did this dance justice."


<Cristiana> Cristiana if she wasn't married, and the top wasn't such a pain to get in and out of, she might have been opening to gathering some beads herself, but she feared for the men’s life from her husband. Or well at least their eyes, so she kept her top securely on.


<Axel Rosen> "I honestly considered not coming, because... you know... people", he pauses for a second then leans against her, bumping against her just slightly, "But I figured if you were going to be here it would be worth it."


<Kleo> Kleo slipped through the entrance to Metronome, the height and width of the purple feathers adorning her head dress and shoulders making it somewhat difficult. Her appearance was extreme compared to those she could see, but Kleo never cared to stand out- when you were covered nearly head to toe ink, you tended to stand out no matter what. Besides, she had a reason for the barely there ensemble she wore- she'd been in the carnival parade. It was nothing new for her, she'd danced in a few when she lived in New Orleans. Still, each time was an exhilarating experience and Mardi Gras was among her favorite Holidays. Her hazel gaze scanned the room, recognizing several people from affiliations and run ins around the city. Her hand lifted in a general wave as she walked toward the bar, greeting Cristiana, her boss at Enchanted. "Happy Mardi Gras! http://imgur.com/6DUKk0I



<Quoth> Quoth walked into the Met, feeling a bit more ridiculous than usual. Considering that the Killer had often attended such events in drag, he thought that was really saying something. But tonight he had taken his get up rather seriously, having to combine his abilities to make the costume authentic as possible. Much of his power usage had come from that of the shifter. Using alter ego and monstrous to help shape himself. He had leaned down his face, giving him a gaunt, hungry appearance. He had also slightly elongated his limbs, and leaned his muscles. Not that his muscles disappeared, but, that he just crafted a more worn looking appearance. Rather than thick and built, he had those gangly thick, and ropey muscles that you associate with field workers. He had also used these powers to change his eyes, giving himself the vertically slitted eyes of a snake, the irises mostly black with streaks of a vibrant yellow. His final touch of 'magic' was to alter his hair. He didn't change the curly long mass of his hair in its base nature. No he left color and such alone, but instead grouped his hair into many thick locks which willed into well maintained dread locks.


<Cristiana> Cristiana beams at the woman walking in. She knew the woman quit well, seeing as she worked throwing people out of the wedding boutique. She smiled, waving to her handing out the pink beads to the woman. "Hello Kleo."


<Doc> Doc looked at Zodiac for a long quiet moment. "Impressive." He knew if he said anything else it would not come out right. Less said the best. He just nodded.


<Phoenix> Phoenix beamed, half-turning to flutter her lashes at Axel. "Aww... Thank you," she whispered, bumping her hip back against his in the direction of the drink table. "You should get something to drink while you're here. Maybe toast to your lovely fiancé."


<Quoth> Quoth had gone through all this preparation even before picking out the rest of his costume. His first stop had been to have his new face painted into the traditional skull of a voodoo priest. http://media-cache-ec0.p i n i m g.com/236x/ ... 1930a0.jpg coupled with his modifications he was confident in how well it looked, even if he wouldn't have an opportunity to see it. Around his neck he wore a bone choker that had a pearl rosary dangling down from the center. The cross hovered at the center of his chest, carved from ivory, with a large snake coiled around the crucifix. He wore a simple leather vest that he left open, displaying his chest. He chose a pair of fitting leather pants, mainly because he couldn't think of anything else, and of course had gone with a pair of heavy boots.


<Zodiac> “Thank you again” *sits back down and sips her drink*


<Quoth> Quoth after a long moment hovering by the door, the killer swallowed. Giving a twirl to his cane, an oak carved walking stick, shaped as a spiraled python with a skull in its mouth for the grip, and adjusting the black top hat he wore, he moved through the crowd to find his wife


<Cristiana> Cristiana when her husband walked in she brightened up instantly, the smile plastered from ear to ear as she grinned like the Cheshire cat to her husband. She went over kissing him firmly on the lips, but also slipping beads to him.


<Zodiac> “Whoa, Baron Samedi just showed up”


<Klara> Klara smiled at Vasik blushing "Thank you" relieved her top did not have to come down wondering what Simon would think if she did. "You're a great dancer"

"--The following transcript was a live chat roleplay--"

<Kleo> Kleo took the beads Crissy offered her, winding them around her wrist- there was no use trying to fit them over her head piece. "Thanks"


<Quoth> Quoth slipped his arm around his wife, graciously accepting both kiss, and beads. He grinned and waggled his painted brows at Zo. "Evening to you to, Zo."


<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen looks at her for a second, the idea of drinking isn't really something he's into. He's only ever drank once, and he wasn't a fan of it. Then again, why not. His eyes begin to scan around through the group of people in order to look for a drink. Toasting and making things so public though, he'd have to give that more thought.


<Zodiac> “Hello, Mr. Quoth”


<Vasik> "No, thank you." He kissed Kleo's hand, ringing with the clatter of the pink beads.


<Cristiana> Cristiana in the moment Axel went looking for a drink a tray arrived at his table. The staff meeting the needs as they were supposed to do, in a timely manner. Crissy pulled back from her husband, his face paint left lingering on her white lips. "Have fun love."


<Phoenix> Phoenix arched a brow at Axel, figuring she knew well enough what he was thinking. While she waited for him to make up his mind, she raised her glass, pointedly flashing the large, black diamond adorning her finger.


<Cristiana> Cristiana the glint of the fire light shone off of Nix's ring, caught her attention immediately. "Nix ... is that a... engagement ring?"


<Vasik> ‘Damn, now THAT'S a woman’, Vasik thought to himself as he eyed Kleo. He sized her up with his amber eyes, slowly moving up and down, and made his way strutting towards her. "Hey gorgeous... love the... ah..." He looked down at her curves. "outfit."


<Cristiana> “Everyone, remember to get your vote in the favorite for the costumes!”


<Zodiac> http://www.scenicreflections.com/ithumb ... _orl18.jpg


<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen just gives a slight nod to the question of the host of the event. He's never really been one for words. The statement about costumes makes him look down at himself, yeah he wasn't getting dressed up either. His eyes close and he decides not to get a drink. Instead, he snakes an arm around Nix.


Kleo http://imgur.com/6DUKk0I


<Phoenix> Phoenix pressed her lips into a thin line, trying her very best not to laugh at Axel's reaction even as she leaned into the man's side. "Yes it is, Crissy." She said this very seriously, as if it were a matter of grave, solemn importance. "Isn't it pretty!?"



<Kleo> Kleo’s perfectly arched brows lifted as she noticed a man walking pointedly toward her. She'd been ready to dismiss him, as she'd had to do countless others that night- but he'd called her "gorgeous" so the least she could do was give him a chance. She smiled lightly. "Thank ya! Made some of it myself." she replied, holding out her arms to show off her cuffs, and lifting a leg to draw attention to similar adornments on her ankles


<Vasik> http://img.costumecraze.com/images/vend ... -large.jpg


<Cristiana> Cristiana wrote down on a paper what one person whispered, slipped the paper into her bosom. "Congrats Nix!" She waved over another round of drinks, this time champagne for the happy couple. "Please enjoy!"


<Lyana> Lyana came in wearing her costume, and smiled as she waved a bit embarrassed by it. It didn't quite cover her entire body, and this was the last one on the shelf. http://www.clothlands.com/images/clm6/12273.


<Zodiac> Zodiac *smiles* hello, Lyana *waves*


<Lyana> Lyana waved to Zo, and grinned. "Nice costume."


<Zodiac> “Likewise”


<Doc> “Hello Lyana…” *he was at the same table as Zo*


<Kleo> adornments]


<Lyana> Lyana wave at Doc, and moved over to their table.


<Cristiana> Cristiana brings out more beads. Pink for the girls, Gold, green and purple for the men, and hands them to the new comers. "Hello Lyana, and Simon it's about time!"


<Zodiac> “Have a seat” *scoots over a bit to make room*


<Vasik> Vasik tilted his head to capture the... points of interest. In her costume of course. "Wow that must have taken talent. Here, for your hard work." He adorned her with violet beads, more to match her outfit rather than for meaning. He knew she deserved it, maybe not for justice, but definitely for dedication.


<Phoenix> Phoenix beamed, taking the offered champagne and sipping happily.


<Klara> http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-3EaPacdJjWs/U ... 1600/1.jpg (right one)


<Cristiana> Cristiana listened to the next vote whispered to her and made a mark on the paper before slipping it into her bosom and moving on.


<Doc> Doc stayed relaxed back in his seat, content to listen for the most part.


<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen takes the beverage, then looks at Nix for a moment and then down to the drink. Silently, he's asking her if there is some way she's drinking this and not vomiting all over the floor. Granted, he doesn't have to worry about that. He sips the drink, tastes nothing at all. Something that has happened since his turning, able to eat like humans, like allurists.


<Klara> Klara walks over to Simon "About time you got there and kissed him

<Kleo> Kleo laughed and nodded at Vasik. “Just a bit, I'm better at other things for sure." she stated, bowing her head so that he could bead her. If he wanted to fight to get them over the feathers, she'd let him. She had the idea he probably didn't mind, anyway.


<Lyana> Lyana sat in the booth, and just watched the crowd. She kept mostly to herself.


<Phoenix> Phoenix was sipping, tasting, and then spitting the liquid back into the glass. It was all very subtle, if not all that classy. At least she wouldn't be sick. "You staying anywhere I can steal you tonight?"


<Simon Ward> Simon Ward stepped in wearing a pin-striped jacket black in color with grey lines. Canary yellow gloves, tie and hat adorned on his head. The rest of his clothes were flat black, which was slacks and a button up shirt. A lit cigarette was in his mouth. Adorned over his neck were several beads that matched the color of his hat, gloves and tie. His hair was tied back and he stood looking like one Mr. Nancy. Gods didn't need to worry about skin color so Simon kept his face as is.


<Simon Ward> http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb2013 ... 1_1280.jpg (except yellow)


<Zodiac> Zodiac *excuses herself and heads to the bar, comes back with drinks for all at her table*


<Zodiac> Lyana, Doctor *serves them and sits back down*


<Lyana> Lyana grinned and took the drink happily. She sipped slowly at it. "Thanks, Zo."


<Cristiana> Cristiana makes note of the costumes and who has cast a vote.


<Phoenix> “You know... I think it's Doc's turn to flash the ladies.”


<Klara> Klara laughs and applauds "Come on Doc show us what you got!”

<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen looks at her for a moment, "I told you I'd be at the apartment from now on." He smiles at her then takes another sip of the glass. He looks at Doc, after the suggestion. His eyes then avert away from the main part of the room, looking to the door. He'd rather not see anything like that.


<Zodiac> “No problems, dear”


<Cristiana> Cristiana joins in "Show it Doc!"



<Doc> Doc nods his thanks to Zodiac, "I uh... don't drink... But thank you...” He hears his name and smirks, "What and make you all run screaming? Cristiana would be rather annoyed with me for that."


<Zodiac> “If you are going to do this, do it with style-Doctor”


<Klara> Klara eyes Vasik "You're next”


<Simon> Simon Ward nods to Cristiana, "Mom." His eyes shot to Klara. Eyeing the woman up and down him tossed her one of the beaded necklaces just because. Then he waits to see if Doc was going to earn some beads.


<Kleo> Kleo in her heels was able to see the door ahead of her. Her eyes lit as she saw Zakar.


<Klara> Klara grabs the beads and winks at Simon flashing him a grin going to grab them both drinks


<Zodiac> “Get the right kind of music on for this man, Crissy!”


<Phoenix> Phoenix didn't really want to see it either - she had eyes for one person in the room, and it certainly wasn't Doc. Grinning up at Axel, she leaned in to press a light kiss to the man's cheek. "Good. I just wanted to make sure I knew where to harass you later. You don't have to stay if you don't want to."


<Vasik> Vasik snaps his fingers to the music, taking Klara's hands into his free one, bobbing his head to the music. Oh, this would be a grand night. Especially to dance beside Doc.

<Zakar> Zakar slipped inside and cast a glance around, taking in the people, feeling a bit self-conscious dressed as he was. http://img.costumecraze.com/images/vend ... -large.jpg


<Quoth> Quoth , having made his appearance, and noting the wave of pressure about to head in Doc's direction, wisely sifts through the crowd as inconspicuously as a 6'11'' witch doctor could to sidle up to the bar.


<Cristinana> Cristiana lots of people she didn't know were coming. She handed out more beads to the men, especially the new comers. "Hello and Welcome to the Metronome Club!"


<Zakar> Zakar nodded at the woman though he didn't know her and returned the greeting, "Hello and thank you."


<Doc> Doc would be so disturbed if he knew what Vee was thinking... thank god he is oblivious.

<Klara> Klara giggled as Vasik took out for another dance. She stares at Simon and mouth's 'I'm gonna make you earn your beads honey'


<Simon Ward> Simon Ward smiling at Klara he nods to Vasik, Zodiac, Doc, and Lyana. Seeing Klara get taken away Simon raised a brow then moved through the crowds. A familiar witch doctor stood out near the bar, "I said 'Ooooh Eeehhh Ooooh Ahhh. Ting, Tang. Walla Walla. Bing-Bang."


<Vasik> Vasik As soon as they made it to the floor, he whispered in Klara's ear. "Hold on one moment babe, there's someone who has to join us. How about a threesome?"

--The following transcript was a live chat roleplay--

<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen shakes his head for a second, turning back to look at her, still avoiding the situation going on with Doc, until the desire to see him flash has passed. "I'll be here as long as you are." He nods just once, finally finishing off his champagne. He places the glass down and then rolls his neck.


<Klara> Klara blinks "Um ok"


<Vasik> He suddenly rushed towards Doc without a warning and tackles him, grappling his arms and tugging him to the dance floor.


<Cristiana> Cristiana smiled at him, "Quite welcome sir. Please enjoy the festivities. I assure you the drinks are safe." She winked departing. The food however, was not safe.


<Zodiac> *cracks up as Doc is removed*


<Lyana> Lyana scooted over and bumped into Zo. "So how have you been, Boss?"


<Klara> Klara laughed as Doc was drug out to the dance floor "I can leave you two alone if you'd like


<Vasik> "Nah, the more the merrier! Ain't that right Doc?"


<Zodiac> “Oh, not too bad I guess. Think your tyrant of an employer can get a dance later on?”


<Cristiana> “Please remember you have one vote for the female and one for the male ... For the costume contest!”


<Doc> Doc is grappled and dragged. "What the ****!?..." He grips Vasik's shoulder with a death grip, and he attempted to grab Klara's should as well, as he steadied himself. "Wearing a prosthetic Vee... can barely ******* walk... much less dance...”


<Zodiac> “Yay! I want to watch the floor show for now”


<Kleo> Kleo thought about who she was going to vote for, staring at people without shame


<Lyana> “I would be delighted to dance. You may be the only one to get one.”


<Zakar> After carefully looking around, he caught sight of Kleo's eyes and smiled widely as he headed toward her, nerves vanishing as he looked her over with appreciation, "Kleo! You present a sight such as none I have ever seen!"


<Phoenix> Phoenix smiled up to Axel, a contagiously happy light in those honey brown eyes. After a moment, she nodded and tugged the man over to one of the empty booths, collecting a fresh glass along the way. As she slid into the booth, expecting him to join her, she caught sight of Jonah and waved.


<Jonah> Jonah slipped in and headed for a wall, merely wanting to watch for now and nodded at Phoenix


<Zodiac> OOO! *sees the big fellow* Hello, Mr. Jonah!


<Phoenix> Phoenix waved Jonah over, because lurking against the wall wasn't any fun at all.


<Klara> “Oh come on Doc, you're doing fine just hang on to us”


<Cristiana> Cristiana heads over to Vasik who tried to tackle Doc. She stood behind Vasik glaring in his direction. Her eyes fixed on the man, lips firmly pressed together. "Excuse me." She didn't need security at the moment but if she did... trouble.


<Vasik> "Aww don't be a pussy. Just move your hips old man! Move your arms! Move your ***! MOVE SOMETHING! I'll give you a gold set of beadssss."


<Zodiac> *leans against Lyana-laughing at the dancing*


<Kleo> Kleo knew Zakar would find her- she just had to be patient. As he praised her, she spun for him, giving him full view of the feather and jeweled attire. Finally facing him again, she leaned to press a kiss to his cheek. "A good sight, I hope?" she grinned. "I see you got into the Holiday spirit as well- nice!"


< Jonah> Jonah laughs and nods at Zodiac, shaking his head at Nix, not wanting to interrupt.


<Lyana> Lyana grinned at the sight. "Vasik... You may be in trouble."


<Klara> Klara giggled at Doc


<Vasik> "You're excused!" Vasik giggled with giddiness.


<Cristiana> Cristiana taps Vasik on the shoulder, "Sir, off. Now."


<Vasik> "Aww, but we were having so much fun..."


<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen slips into the booth next to his fiancé. His eyes close and he places both his hands unto the table. His eyes close, before looking over at Jonah. He smiles at the man, and waves.


<Doc> Doc smiles rather coldly at Vee "I am shooting Cat when I see her. Have you ever walked with a prosthetic? It’s ******* hard. Why do you think i was sitting...Don't get me wrong... I like dancing... "


<Cristiana> Cristiana eyes narrow on him, "So will my security if you do not behave. Got me!?" She gave him this one warning.


<Jonah> Jonah waves back at Axel, confused by the amount attention he was receiving.


<Phoenix> Phoenix rested her head against Axel's shoulder, frowning at the snippet of conversation she overheard. "What prosthetic does he have? Prosthetic balls?"


<Zakar> Zakar laughed as he bowed politely and did a passable, if slightly Arabic sounding, imitation of a creole accent as he leaned over to kiss her cheek, "Miss Kleo, you look downright delectable this evening. How you been these past few nights?'"


<Klara> Klara looks at Simon and wags a finger at him "Come dance with me honey”


<Simon Ward> Simon Ward seeing that Crissy was calling for security Simon moved to the woman and cleared his throat eyeing Vasik. He wasn't security officially, but he was protective of family.


<Cristiana> Cristiana stepped in front of her child, motioning she had this. Normally people only needed one warning. "We good sir?"


<Vasik> "Okay..." He pouted, giving leverage to Doc's bad side, walking him back to his table. If not for his sake, for Cat's, even though it was an empty threat, as always. "B****s always be ruining' my fun", Vasik mumbled.


<Axel Rosen> "Who has prosthetic balls?"


<Zodiac> *stops laughing* why are you in need of a prosthetic limb, Doctor?


<Phoenix> "Doc as prosthetic balls."


<Doc> Doc having righted himself finally, balanced, aided by Vee, said to Zodiac, "Swords are very sharp...”


<Zodiac> oh I see *nods* enough said


<Kleo> Kleo’s head piece threatened to fall off as she threw her head back in a laugh. "Thank ya again, sir...you look rather appetizing yourself." She winked at him. "I've been doin alright, had a few ups and downs but things seem to be gettin back in order. How bout for you? I think ya need some private Creole lessons."


<Cristiana> Cristiana turned to her son, nodding. "Thank you." with that she went back to hosting the party and greeting the two new comers. "Hello Mr. Jonah and Miss...” She halted forgetting Macaria's name. She gave them both beads, girls got pink beads while guys got gold, green and purple.


<Lyana> Lyana stood up and went for her beads. She didn't get any earlier.


<Macaria> And thanks, I think. https://24.media.tumblr.com/38d5774095b ... o1_500.jpg


<Jonah>Jonah looked down at the beads and then back up, not knowing what they were for.


<Vasik> As soon as Doc was situated, Vasik made his way to Cristiana. "Here" He mumbled, looking down like a child, holding out a set of gold beads. "For power."


<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen nods his head at Nix's statement but says nothing.


<Lyana> “How do we use the beads? Just ask if someone wants them?”


<Cristiana> Cristiana waves over a tray of drinks for them to enjoy, "Miss Macaria. I will be sure to remember next time."


<Phoenix> Phoenix lowered her voice, sounding rather sad. "This explains so much..."


<Zodiac> “You give a set to someone you feel deserves them”


<Lyana> Oh? But isn't there something they are supposed to do to deserve them?


<Cristiana> Cristiana takes the beads smiling at him, "Thank you Vasik."


<Zodiac> “That’s for you to decide”


<Cristiana> “Ok... the bead system. I will explain it.”


<Zodiac> “Yes, ask Crissy”


<Lyana> I need color sets...


<Simon Ward> Simon Ward looked to Lyana, "As the former Nalins resident typically people flashed privates for them or gave them out whenever. Rules may be different here," he said trying to be helpful. Moving through the crowd Simon went to Klara, "I don't want to pry you away from your dance."


<Cristiana> “The purple was for Justice. The gold was for power. The last color, green was for faith. When you see someone exhibiting this, you give them the beads. Or, as you wish, in some cases a woman showing off her bosom will also get the beads.”


<Zodiac> “Sad to stoop to such a thing”


<Zodiac> *looks at Chrissy and laughs*


<Lyana> Lyana laughed.

<Jonah. Jonah nodded slowly, mostly getting it


<Lyana> “It's why I came, to see some boobies! *Lyana teased.*


<Vasik> Vasik makes his way around the room, scoping out the new recruits. He overhears something... ("You overhear some people talking about how most of Harper Rock's long-standing businesses are closing down.") That would be too bad for the Met, but he was sure it wouldn't come to that.
<Cristiana> Cristiana wonders off to her husband giving him a quick flash of her bosom. She looked up to him smirking making sure her back was to enough of the room no one else got the show. However she did lose her tallies in the costume contest.


<Vasik> He heads to the bar for another drink, snapping his fingers for attention.


<Cristiana> Cristiana watches a drink appears before the man, the woman sliding it across the bar to him.


<Vasik> He swirls around. "So what if men show off theirs?" He smiles widely with slitted eyes denoting pure evil and kink.


<Zodiac> Well *looks at Doc* I hope the other end of that sword got the worse end of the deal


<Cristiana> “I suppose they would get some beads too ...”


<Simon Ward> “We get them too. I expect to get some beads soon.”

<Zakar> Zakar watched with almost blatant appreciation as he replied, "I believe I'd enjoy private lessons. Long's you're the teacher. Seems like we always manage to miss seein' one another 'less it's to beat on each other in the cage."



<Quoth> Quoth used the beads she had given to him earlier to catch his wife, pulling her up against him, where he more formally decorates her with the beads before stealing a kiss.


<Klara> “I've been waiting for you to get here baby”

<Lyana> Lyana would pass out beads if she could get some.

--The following transcript was a live chat roleplay--

<Zodiac> “Oh, dear. They got boxes of them up at the bar”


<Simon Ward> Simon Ward eyes her dancing partner, "Mmmmmhmmmm."


<Doc> Doc nodded, "Your hope has been fulfilled.”


<Cristiana> Cristiana kisses him lavishly, smiling as she did when he was around. "I love you." She whispers to him.


<Zodiac> Good for you. *smiles*


<Zakar> Zakar had been listening to the explanation about beads and wondered if he could get a woman to flash him, specifically one woman.


<Zodiac> Speaking of handing out these pink things, if you will excuse me for a bit *slips out of the booth and makes her way across the room*


<Doc> Doc smiles at her "Thank you.” He knows she will be pissed as hell when it becomes clear.


<Vasik> Vasik finishes his third drink swiftly and makes a break for the dance floor once again, this time ripping off his top and releasing a barbaric bellow of excitement, dancing to the music.


<Vasik> "COME ON LADIES IT'S TIME TO DANCE!"


<Zodiac> *gets a pair of drinks, walks to where Jonah is standing and offers him a glass* hello, dear friend


<Phoenix> Phoenix arched a brow at Axel. "Dancing?"


<Kleo> Kleo nodded as Zakar spoke, unwinding the string of pink beads on her wrist. She worked the strand over his head, and adjusted them on his chest after they settled. "Course I'm the teacher. We can start with some basics, and advance as we see fit..." she waggled her brows, trying to keep a straight face but finding it difficult. "Ooo yes, cage times...good times, but true- the only time we seem to be able to find one another. You owe me a night out on the town I think?"


<Jonah> Jonah had returned to the wall after the bead explanation and smiled as Zodiac joined him, taking a glass. "How are you?


<Lyana> Lyana got up and went to the dance floor. She kept beat to the music and danced wildly.


<Zodiac> “I am well, and yourself?”


<Jonah> Jonah shrugged, "Well enough."


<Kleo> Kleo stayed right where she was. She wasn't dancing unless Zakar was dancing- she was enjoying their conversation


<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen nods his head and then makes his way out of the booth. Dancing isn't horrible, he's just horrible at it. He has absolutely no rhythm.


<Klara> Klara smiled "mmhmm, I was wondering what was taking so long. How do you like my outfit?”


<Zodiac> *looks at the height difference between them. Grabs a chair and drags it over. Climbs up to be more eye level with the giant* I was told we was to give these to special people. *drapes a set of the pink over his neck*


<Quoth> Quoth gave his wife a wide smile, as they pulled slightly apart. His hand came up to brush at the chalky white pigment transferred to her lips. Leaning in again he tilted his head, to nip her ear, gently holding her lobe captive while whispering sweet nothings. Pulling back once more he chuckled and wiped at another spot where the dye had rubbed off on her cheek. He knew that there was plenty of the gunk on his face that he didn’t have to worry about a little rubbing off here and there. "Heh... maybe I should have rethought this costume."


<Simon Ward> Simon Ward grinning as he eyed the outfit, "Makes me miss home. Mine's from Literature but the character likes N'aleans. I had to."


<Zakar> Zakar looked down at the beads as they settled against his chest, then back up at her with a wink, "You gave me these without me "earning" them. Now, as to the night on the town, I've been looking around for the ideal place to meet up, but without you telling me what your interests are....."


<Cristiana> Cristiana looks at him like he is the only one in the room with her, her knees weakened as she leaned against him, "It's perfect, and so are you."


<Jonah> Jonah smiled at the beads and the manner that they were draped on him. Sorting through his, he found a green pair and returned the favor.


<Klara> Klara kissed his nose "I like it. I decided to go daring and hoped to drive you wild" *she moved in close to him


<Phoenix> Phoenix slid out to join Axel. Luckily for them both, she had plenty of rhythm to go around. With a teasing roll of her hips, she tugged the man into the center of the room before looping her arms around his waist. "Just follow my lead."


<Zodiac> “Thank you, kind sir. Despite anything you may think, you are a man of character, and those are rare in this place


<Kleo> Kleo smirked. "You earned em when you walked in lookin as good as you do...but if that's not good enough for you, feel free to earn them again...and again, if you wish." She thought on the second half of his statement. "Well...I like ta eat, but that's not exactly helpful. You know I like fightin, and I like dancin...is that any help?"


<Jonah> Jonah thought that she knew him too well if she knew his doubts without him having even thought them. "Poking around in here?" He asked jokingly, tapping a nail to his forehead.


<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen nods his head to her statement and then he leans his head toward the floor, following her after taking a step back. This is really the only instance in which he would take a following role, but his lack of dancing experience means he'll have to.


<Zodiac> We talk, the rest is easy to figure out even without telepathy *smiles*


<Vasik> Sweating, disappointed by the lack of attendance on the dance floor, Vasik made his way for a booth and slammed down, spreading his legs wide, clothes over his shoulder.


<Lyana> Lyana worked her booty to the music and smiled to herself as she danced alone. She looked to the bar, and stopped dancing long enough to get herself another drink.


<Nevaeh> Nevaeh wonders in heading toward the woman she intended on seeing at the party. She wore http://www.cu2nite.com.au/ldc/blog/wp-c ... ge-Red.jpg to surprise the woman, and a little black mask covered her eyes. She smiled to Ria. "Surprise."


<Simon Ward> Simon Ward a soft smile pulled at his lips, "I do. You're very vibrant," he pulled her close trying hard not to smudge any of the paint or pasties.


<Jonah> “Am I that transparent?”


<Zodiac> No just that focused. *hops off the chair and looks up at him* aren't you going to ask me to dance?


<Klara> She wrapped her arms around him not caring what kind of music was on, just glad to be next to him, having him hold her close.


<Zakar> Zakar contemplated the idea of earning them and decided that if he had to flash his goods, he wasn't going to do it in front of random strangers....or was he..., giving her a wide grin, he removed his vest and removed the shirt from beneath it before putting the vest back on, now shirtless.


<Quoth> Quoth grinned, unraveling one arm from around her. He reached to his side without taking his eyes off of her, and plucked up his ornate cane. Without needing to look he reached behind him with it, over the bar top, and stored the cane safely away on top of one of the hidden coolers there. He slid the arm still holding her to her hand and brought her into a little spin so that her back was to his chest. The hand that had been putting away the cane slipped over her hip to her curvaceous backside, giving a discreet grope as he whispered. "Far from perfect." Leaning forward into her so she was forced to take a step he guided her towards the dance floor.


<Phoenix> Phoenix silently let her body follow the beat of the music, using it to guide Axel's steps. She wasn't the best dancer, but she knew what she was doing. "One night, we're going salsa dancing whether you like it or not."


<Marcaria> Macaria blinks. A lot.

<Jonah> Jonah canted his head to the side, smirking, and putting on the false accent he had used with her before. "I'm afraid I hadn't yet found the line I'm sure has formed to wait for your hand."


<Vasik> Vasik eyed Zakar from afar, whistling at the change of wardrobe.


<Axel Rosen. Axel Rosen thinks on this for a moment, any dancing makes him nervous because it's not something he's used to. Whether he likes it or not isn't really something that has to be added, because, he would do it for her if she wanted him to. "Seems fair."


<Zakar> Zakar gave Kleo's words consideration as he stood there, shirtless, "What we need to do is find a place with a mosh pit. I think that's what they are called. Then there is dancing and fighting at the same time.....which sounds kind of like sex...in a strange sort of way."


<Zodiac> Silly. Doc is missing a leg and Lyana is just getting warmed up *wraps her hand around his* c'mon


<Simon Ward> Simon Ward moving with Klara he smiled at her, "I am going to earn some beads tonight. Just as a warning." He was going to do that and probably earn some eye rolls.


<Paige> Paige levitates in.


<Doc> Doc rises and moves with deliberation to the host and hostess, "Had a lovely time... Thank you for the evening."


<Lyana> Lyana just watched from the bar.


<Cristiana> Cristiana stumbled a bit as she was spun around, the man pressed her body to his. A place she was more than happy to be. She let him lead the way toward the dance floor, "But... but..." if she remembered at all she was hosting the event!

<Lyana> Paige! Hi!


<Paige>Paige stares suspiciously at Doc.


<Paige> Paige nods to Lyana.


<Doc> Doc nods to Zodiac, stares at Mako and limps out.

<Nevaeh> Nevaeh looks down to what she wore, then to Ria. "You like?"


<Macaria> Macaria grins, "Hard not to, really."


<Zakar> Zakar whipped his head around, wondering who was whistling and why.

--The following transcript was a live chat roleplay--


<Vasik> The shirtless fiery-headed boy rushes to Doc. Aww, don't leave just yet..." He eyes Paige in a taunting, kinky way.


<Klara> Klara And just how do purpose to do that? I've been holding on to mine, earn away


<Jonah> Jonah let her tug him to the floor. "How're we dancing?"


<Phoenix> Phoenix paused mid-dance step to hug her partner tight. "And you'll get to pick the next date night activity."


<Nevaeh> Nevaeh snickers, "Save the Hardness for the guys! How about some s'mores!"


<Paige>Paige is unamused by the mischief in Vasik's eyes. "Good evening," she whispers to the redhead before levitating past him and toward her sire.


<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen turns his head to Paige as she comes into to the room. He can sense her as soon as she enters. He sends her a missive as he continues to dance with Nix. He turns his head to Nix, "Oh? So bloodshed will be involved?"


<Quoth> Quoth merely kept up the progression. His hand slipped up from her shapely rump to trace along the length of her spine, letting her momentarily feel his extended claw like nails. "You can wave at the door from the dance floor for the length of one dance."


<Kleo> Kleo’s interest was piqued by the removal of clothing Zakar was doing. Muscles like she liked them, strong shoulders, too. "If only I had more to give than a strand of beads. Oh wait, I do..." she pressed lingering kisses to each of his cheeks in turn. "That's my way of saying I approve, if there was any question." a slow grin formed on her lips. As he tried to explain mosh pits, the smile became another laugh. "It does sound like sex...ain't nothin wrong with that. I can look up some concerts later. Or sometimes, clubs can be like mosh pits..." she glanced toward the dance floor


<Phoenix> Phoenix nodded, trying her very best to seem wise. "If you'd like to take a hunting trip, I'm sure I could arrange for Doppel to track down some fade beasties for us." Had she known Paige was in the room, she'd have greeted the woman - alas, her back was turned and they shared no true blood bond.


<Zodiac> Easy for now *takes his left hand and puts it to her waist, slips her hand into his right* easy grip there. *then pats his hand on her waist* you will feel how I move here. Slowly begins to guide him*


<Paige> Paige The orange eyed vampire sits and watches the dance floor as she converses with her sire in her head.


<Cristiana> Cristiana a shiver ran the length of her spine reminding her of a night oh so long ago. The core of that night was etched in her memory as one of the fondest nights of her life. She gave a weak nod, giving up bothering to wave to anyone new coming in.


<Simon Ward> Simon Ward saw those words as permission so he t took off his shoes, socks and then handed them to Klara. "Hold these," and he undid his pants walked out to the middle of the floor. His pants were around his ankles then he whistled with a high pitch, "Bead me!" So, there Simon stood in the middle of the floor with no pants on and the man wasn't wearing any underwear.


<Macaria> “I could go for some more of those s'mores.”


<Paige> Paige glares at Vasik.


<Jonah> Jonah fits his hand against her waist and lightly takes her hand. He has some gentleness in him despite his size. Pulling her close to him, he follows her lead but smirks, having had some experience dancing before.


<Zakar> Zakar thought he could get used to kisses, both on the cheek and other places if she kept it up. He was no stranger to dancing, he could after all do the Charleston and seeing where her glance went, he chuckled and gestured to the floor with one hand while holding the other out to her, "Would you like to dance? With me, I mean?


<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen continues to dance with her, "It was a joke, I'll be sure to plan something special for the next date." He nods a little bit, before the song finishes. His head nods over to Paige, before he makes his way in that direction. Once close enough he smiles at the woman. "Would you like a drink Paige?"


<Nevaeh> Nevaeh offers a hand for them to head toward the bar but stops short of the naked man on the dance floor. “Oh never mind."


<Zodiac>*looks up at him* see? You holding out on me. Also, I seem to remember telling you once I would have you on the dance floor, but I think you laughed about that


<Macaria> I’ve been trying to avoid him. He doesn't seem quite... right.


<Klara> Klara mouth dropped open as she dropped the items he handed her and went over and placed her beads around his neck "you can pull then up anytime


<Paige> Paige quickly stops glaring at her former roommate so she can nod up at Axel. Her orange eyes remain respectfully lowered. Warm, fresh blood would have been preferable.


<Cristiana> Cristiana eyes flash toward Simon angry. She tensed against Quoth. "Simon..." the word was a warning but she didn't bother leaving Quoth. Though she did face palm.


<Vasik> Vasik, still shirtless, struts over to Vasik, ignoring Paige, and whispers in his ear. "You can have my beads all you want, and the ones on my neck, too."


<Jonah> Jonah shrugged, twirling her. "I laughed for a few reasons."


<Vasik> *struts over to Simon


<Nevaeh> Nevaeh nods catching one of the servers, asking for the drinks.


<Quoth> Quoth weaved them through the crowd. The closer they got to the dance floor, the more he let the beat of the music pumping from the speakers dictate their steps. By the time they had reached the floor, they were already fully in step. Following the rhythm, he quickly turned his wife again, bringing them chest to chest to chest, his hands smoothly finding their place on her hips. At her urging he eyes Simon. "Hope you aren't expecting a game of ring toss..."


<Phoenix> Phoenix followed Axel's nod and spotted Paige. Offering a warm smile, Nix trailed after her partner, "Nothing wrong with bloodshed." And then once Paige was within earshot, she greeted her with a "Nice to see you again."


<Kleo> Kleo slipped off her head piece, stashing it somewhere safe, then took Zakar's hand without hesitation, her fingers sliding between his. In the shoes she wore, her gaze was practically level with his. "Would love to dance with you" she responded, allowing him to lead


<Zodiac> *rolls back into him* I am sorry to have assumed you had never danced. Shows you how deeply I do and do not peek into others minds


<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen leaves the two of them for just two seconds in order to get Paige a drink, and Nix another. As he makes his way back he responds to the statement of bloodshed. "I agree, but we can talk about it later." He's not good at speaking publicly about things, though he's not sure why.


<Nemesis> Nemesis entered the club roughly almost two hours late, her hand linked in Blake's arm. Unfortunately, certain... events had held the couple up. As she peered around at the number of people who decided to attend the event, Zoey lifted her head slightly to steal a glance at her love. "No backing out now, you know." She smirked lightly, then proceeded to lead him closer to the music. http://imgur.com/a/0Iiik#0


<Simon Ward>Simon Ward pulling up his pants he looked at Klara, "You did say I could earn them." Pulling up his pants then taking his shoes Simon dressed himself. Then the newly earned bead went up. A nod of apology went to his mother. Typically he would have stayed like that for the night, but the start of moderation.


<Paige> Paige bows her head respectfully and whispers to Phoenix, though her voice does not carry above the crowd. "The pleasure is mine. I hope you are enjoying the party, ma'am."


<Jonah> Jonah continued to sway with Zodiac. "I trust you. Can peek in to mine whenever."


<Lyana> Lyana giggled at the thoughts in her head.


<Klara> Klara pressed one of her pasties tighter to her breast "No I asked how you were going to earn them ding dong.


<Zodiac> “Out of respect that I do not, but thank you”
Zoey's outfit: http://imgur.com/a/0Iiik#0


<Simon Ward> Simon Ward flushed at the correction, "I umm...uhhh...sorry..." he looked down.


<Zakar> Zakar boldly darted in for a quick peck to her lips, leaving her enough time to pull back or turn her head if she chose to do so. Maybe she'd let him kiss her and if she did, he was going to really plant one on her, not just peck her lips. As he led her to the floor, he was thankful that he had taken time to learn to dance, even if it might have been deemed improper back home."


<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen gets the feeling that the party is getting a bit too crowded. He looks around, trying to decide if now when he should take his leave is or not. He eyes Nix to figure out her feelings on their surroundings. He breathes in.


<Vasik> Rejected, Vasik shrugged it off and made his way to the center of the floor, singing with the music with the siren's voice, the pied piper, dancing suggestively.


<Blake> Blake stepped through the door of The Metronome with a hand on a sheathed sword that hung from a leather belt that encompassed his waist. His other hand was on the hip of the beautiful woman by his side. Looking around he averted his gaze from the bright lights of the dance floor and smiled. The large plumage that extended from his hat giving him the look of having a few extra inches as he looked down at Zoey. A simple nod given to her as The Captain smiled brightly, his identity partially hidden by the overly intricate and glinting mask he wore. "I did make a promise..."

-The following transcript was a livechat roleplay-

<Klara> Klara giggled "It's ok, I'm practically naked in this outfit anyways, and at home you can earn more beads" *she winked as she walked towards the bar


<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen looks to the male, the one making a show of himself, and wants to tell him that desperation suits no one well. He shrugs his shoulders, it's not his place.


<Lyana> Lyana finished a few drinks and slipped back onto the floor. She took off a pink bead and hanged it on Vasik's neck. "Dance with me?"


<Cristiana> Cristiana’s body weaved with his, a hand on his thigh rubbing the muscle under the pants he clad over them. She ground her hips into his midsection with a deliberate ease. Her other tiny hand wrapped around his neck playing with a tuft of hair peeking out.


<Jonah> Jonah "So how have you been?" He asked as they danced.


<Zodiac> Doing the usual. Helping people answer their questions about yesterday and tomorrow is all


<Kleo> Kleo was caught off guard by Zakar's kiss, but like holding his hand, she responded without second though or regret. Her fingers curled over his shoulder, pointed nails digging into the skin as she kissed him back gently. When she drew back, a grin remained and she grunted, gently nudging him onward, toward the dance floor


<Vasik> "With pleasure." His chest was sparkling with drips of sweat, illuminated by the color-changing dance floor. The beat was hard, vibrating the droplets lower and lower. He would not touch Lyana, but dance around her with his gyrating hips.


<Phoenix> Phoenix was content simply sipping her drink and letting other people do the talking for once. Had Axel voiced his thought, she'd have agreed.


<Paige> Paige wore a Venetian mask of white adorned in black feathers and sequins. Her dress was strapless, long and straight throughout. It made her alabaster flesh stand out, and around her neck hung a silver chain with a small blood red jewel. Her ears were similarly adorned.


<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen almost forgot to hand the two drinks to Nix and Paige.


<Phoenix> Phoenix switched off the drinks. "I wish I could still be an alcoholic..."


<Lyana> Lyana danced along with Vasik, as her hips swayed and moved to the beat. She respected his space and danced just out of touch. She let loose as the alcohol started to loosen her up.


<Klara> Klara smiled as she watched Vasik finding her way back to Simon "Feel like dancing some more?


<Nevaeh> Nevaeh smiled as they bought the s'more drinks to them. "A toast to you, for being the highlight of the evening." She raised her glass to Ria.


<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen "Well you could, just have to find a really drunk human, or a dozen."


<Paige> Paige whispers "Thank you sir," and waits for her elders to drink before sipping from her own goblet. She stared quietly at her surroundings and sometimes gave quiet territorial growls.


<Phoenix> Phoenix "You should bring me really drunk humans as courting gifts. Because you have to court me."


<Nemesis> Nemesis glanced toward the bar before she even thought to seek out the friends she figured would be here. Crissy would find her, eventually. "If I'm right... the drinks in those colored bottles are..." She lowered her voice to a whisper. "Safe."


<Macaria> And here was me about to say something similar to you.


<Nevaeh> Navaeh blushes


<Quoth> Quoth groaned slightly at the way his wife moved. His own hips worked in a counter harmony to hers, rolling and gyrating in a way to not mimic hers, but to compliment her. He may have lacked the natural grace of an allurist, but he was a Killer after all, and exercised his body nightly. While it might not have been completely natural, the man did know how to move.


<Axel Rosen> "Have to, huh?"


<Simon Ward> Simon Ward wrapped his hands around Klara's waist, "Lead the way." He followed Klara his eyes were locked on her "Costume."


<Vasik> As the music slowed, he held out his hand to Lyana, kneeling his head down like the white knight he pretended to be. "May I?"


<Paige> Paige made a mental note to use uninvited guest to drag some drunk humans out of their beds for Phoenix later.


<Lyana> Lyana nodded, and took his hand slowly.


<Macaria> Macaria grins


<Phoenix> Phoenix nodded seriously, figuring it was polite not to comment on Paige's growling. "Yes. You have to... win my affections," she fluttered her lashes as innocently as she could manage.


<Klara> Klara hand entwined with his as she found a dark quiet corner of the floor turning into his arms holding him close looking deeply into his eyes


<Phoenix> Phoenix would totally love Paige forever if drunken human gifts were the norm <. <


<Axel Rosen> "A hunting we shall go, but later."


<Zakar> Zakar the grin that curled his lips went from ear to ear as he decided he liked the feel of her lips on his and determined he was going to try that again...after they danced of course. Half distracted, or rather reeling from the kiss, he took the nudge with good grace and soon turned to face her, his steps light and surprising graceful considering his background, "So, tell me about yourself, more than you like to fight and dance, and that you're kisses are pretty enticing."


<Cristiana>Cristiana lets out a soft moan trying to hide the way the man’s body pressed to hers felt, the tingle that ran through her was of sheer delight. She could feel just how happy he was for her to be swaying her hips against him. Her finger grasped that small tuft, tugging the bit of hair as she made contact with his eyes.


<Phoenix> Phoenix nodded enthusiastically.


<Vasik> Vasik's left hand traced Lyana's waist, slowly making its way downwards as his head cocked to one side, closing in tight, noses almost touching.


<Blake> Blake nodded and gave Zoey a squeeze as he nodded. "Drinks sound wonderful but I think there is a fair amount of mingling to be done...this might not actually be so bad."


<Simon Ward> Simon Ward smiling he was happy to be close to Klara. "Getting lonely without me?" dipping her he smiled at Klara as they were close.


<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen sits down at the both that he was recently seated at and then leans his head back against the cushion.


<Lyana> Lyana smiled as she was pulled tight. She looked into his eyes still smiling, and waited for his lead as her empty hand took hold of his shoulder.


<Nemesis> Nemesis had just been reaching for a bottle of vodka when she heard him say those words. She paused and turned to look at him, a smirk pulling at one side of her mouth. "I'm sorry... Say that one more time? I didn't catch it."


<Paige> Paige’s orange eyes regard the bustling area with quiet suspicion. When her sire sits down, she kneels beneath the booth so she can rest her head on his knee. Her mangled throat vibrates with the occasional growl.


<Nevaeh> Nevaeh smiles downing the shot, she motioned for another round.


<Klara> Klara fought the urge to make him jealous "Doc and Vasik were fun to dance with but they aren't you." *she kissed his neck, her tongue trailing up to nibble at his ear. "I like to be in your arms"


<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen shakes his head a little bit as she kneels down and lifts her up in the seat next to him. He grins.


<Kleo> Kleo was not disappointed. Zakar had told her a few times that he could dance- and he could! Kleo was always a bit skeptical when someone claimed this, until she saw them in action. The way Zakar moved had her wondering what else he could do well with his body, but she pointedly avoided dwelling on that too much. Her arms slipped around his neck, and her slim frame pressed close to him- her inked stomach against his bare one. "Hmmm, let's see. I was born on a cold November day, in New Orleans..." she began dramatically


<Paige> Paige tries to return the grin, but ends up baring her lion's jaws instead.


<Vasik> Vasik pulled her in tighter, hips pressed against each other. He curled his head around to her ear and said, to his own surprise, "Just tell me when to stop." He thought back to all the women he had taken advantage of. This was a shock even to him, even if he was putting on a ruse.


<Blake> Blake shrugged and chuckled softly. "Well, given who is here I can handle the new faces and what not. There is at least some comfort and you did have a very compelling argument to even get me here so I figure I might try to enjoy it."


<Quoth> Quoth was torn. The tug of her hand at his hair made him want to tilt his head back and growl, but the flash of her violet irises were simply irresistible. Through sheer force of will, he kept his eyes on her's, while focusing on meeting the undulations of her body with his.


<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen does the same in return. His fangs return back to their normal state of 'teeth'.


<Jonah> Jonah swayed with her a few more times before pulling her close for a moment and finishing the dance. "Thank you for the dance."


<Phoenix> Phoenix slid into the seat opposite Axel and Paige, watching the exchange between them with a strange, morbid fascination. "I have normal teeth," she stated flatly.


<Lyana> Lyana laughed lightly. "Alright." She nodded slightly and licked her lips.


<Paige> Paige spends the next fifteen minutes attempting to get her teeth back in order. Eventually she begins to pluck the sharp lion teeth out one by one, so that normal teeth will grow in her place. She drops each lion tooth into the ashtray.

<Zodiac> “And you are most welcome!” *curtseys to him*


< Vasik> Vasik closed his eyes and began to lightly nibble the lobe of the ear he whispered in to, hands moving lower and slower, exploring the curves of her body.

--The following transcript was a live chat roleplay--



<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen looks at her as she pulls her teeth out. "We're gonna have to teach you the way of retracting those..." He looks at the pile of teeth then turns back to Nix. "But razor sharp mouth of daggers is so much more fun for ripping humans apart.


<Jonah> Jonah nodded and moved to Paige, who he had not seen in a few weeks. Nodding to the trio, he asked, "Can I sit?"


<Nemesis> Nemesis’s eyes twinkled with mischief as she leaned up just enough to brush her lips to the man's. "Maybe you just love me enough to not let me come to such an event all alone?"


<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen nods his head at Jonah, "Always welcome!"


<Zodiac> Zodiac *makes her way thru the crowd back to her table*


<Paige> Paige’s fingertips grew coated with black blood as she yanked each tooth. Fresh normal teeth were beginning to bud already in the seeping gashes. She does not look at Jonah, she is absorbed in her task. When it is done, she finally licks her lips and glances up at him with the usual suspicion in her orange eyes. One bony finger prods at the pile of lion teeth in the ashtray in front of her.


<Cristiana> Cristiana her form swiftly turned to face him, eyes never leaving his. With a step, her hips went wild in the air, twisting and conforming back and for vibrating in the movements. She never once stole a precious moment from his eyes, always watching the depths of his pools. Her tongue darted out licking her lips deliberately.


<Lyana> Lyana gasped and didn't moved. She didn't know that was what he had meant. She was sure he meant with the dancing. When he nibbled on her ear, her neck went flush, and his hands caused hers to tighten on his shoulder. She whispered into his ear, and tried not sound flustered. "Are we dancing or fore playing on the dance floor?"


<Phoenix> Phoenix inched over, leaving space enough for Jonah - not that she took up much room. "Please. I waved you over earlier." She paused, watching Paige work. "Dentures, maybe? And Axel... I'm not a messy eater like some people."


<Zodiac> Zodiac *checks her pouch, inspecting the few useful bits she had procured so far during the evening. Each wrapped separately*


<Blake> Blake grinned and ran his fingers lightly along Zoey's cheek. "Mmm, yes...let's go with that." his eyes meeting hers with a look she knew very well


<Jonah> “Dentures for what?" He asked as he sat.


<Axel Rosen> "Are you calling me a messy eater? You haven't even seen the wor... I left one in the apartment didn't I? At least I leave them on plastic so it's easy to clean up. Hearts just taste too good. All body and delicious."


<Cristiana> Cristiana her form swiftly turned to face him, eyes never leaving his. With a step, her hips went wild in the air, twisting and conforming back and for vibrating in the movements. She never once stole a precious moment from his eyes, always watching the depths of his pools. Her tongue darted out licking her lips deliberately


<Kleo> “Lol”


<Vasik> He softly chuckled. "It's a matter of perspective. Foreplay itself is a dance, but we can stop if you like." The song slowly made its end, sweat droplets nearly all dry. "I must say, thank you for the dance." He bowed and kissed her hand as he made for the restrooms to redress himself.


<Paige> The native Russian does not understand what dentures are, so she looks at Phoenix and Jonah to try and listen to their conversation and figure it out. She enjoys the pain of her regrowing teeth and lashes her tongue over the fresh caps.


<Nemesis> Nemesis shivered faintly, the tremors barely visible as she pressed herself a bit closer to him. "Let's go dance. Maybe Crissy and Quoth will be somewhere within that crowd."


<Nevaeh> Nevaeh looks up waving to Zoey and the man she brought with her.


<Lyana> Lyana smiled and bid him goodbye. She made her way back to her table after grabbing more drinks, and sat next to Zo. She leaned over and whispered in her ear.


<Phoenix> Phoenix sighed, nodding slowly. "You left one in the apartment. Besides, I did see what you did to those hunters that night. Creative, but splattery." She nodded, and then turned back to Jonah. "Dentures - fake teeth or maybe a tooth holder-in-place thing. So she doesn't have to... do... that..."


<Zodiac> *raises an eyebrow*


<Lyana> Lyana laughed and grinned at her.


<Zakar> Zakar found he liked the way her skin and her body felt against his. Of course, that lead to thoughts that were more than a little distracting but he shut those firmly in the back of his mind and focused instead on what she was saying as they moved smoothly on the floor, "I like what I hear so far. Being born was definitely a good thing in my eyes."


<Paige> Paige tilts her head gently, raven hair falling to one side in a long curtain.


<Jonah> Jonah "I know what dentures are. Why does she need them...though?" He saw the pile on the table and perked his brow up. "What happened?"


<Lyana> Lyana gave Zo a big grin.


<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen looks at Jonah, "she was having issues retracting her fangs, all thirty two of them." He takes a breath then looks to Paige, "it’s okay, we'll just have to work on it."


<Blake> Blake blinked and looked at Zoey for a moment. "You said party nothing about dancing...I'm gonna have to tack a few extra charges on to your bill later." He grinned mischievously as he offered her his hand and began to move towards the dance floor.


<Jonah> Jonah frowned. "I know the feeling. Can't retract mine."


<Vasik> Vasik returns to the bar for his fourth drink, singing to the music. He eyed Paige from across the room and beckoned with a single claw.


<Paige> Paige nods to her sire and yawns, unhinging her jaw briefly. It cracked back into place and her normal teeth closed with a click. She stared at Jonah. "If you pull them out they heal quickly," she whispered to Jonah.


<Quoth> Quoth finally did let loose the growl forming in his throat, though he was careful to not let the sound carry. When he could no longer keep up with the frantic sway of her hips, his hand slid behind her, cradling her as he pulled her body firmly against his. Leaning forward he brought her into a deep dip, his lips catching hers for precious languid moments. While their tongues danced his free hand roamed her body, not to subtly exploring those delectable curves. Finally breaking the kiss he whispered against her lips, "I think that is our one dance... any more of this and we are going to win -all- of the beads." Straightening back up he was careful that she found her feet.


<Nemesis> Nemesis chuckled softly as she placed her hand in his. "Yeah, yeah... as if you don't get whatever you want in that department as is?" She moved towards the dance floor with him, but looked up just in time to be able to wave back towards her sibling.






<Cristiana> Cristiana gives him a delicate smile, knowing she wore nearly as much as his make up as he did. "If you insist...” She said knowing she too couldn't handle much more but wasn't willing to give the crowd that type of show. "I have... hosting things..." she said flabbergasted in thought and tongue.


<Simon Ward> Simon Ward blushed at the affection and he looked at her, "I was so very jealous," he whispered to Klara.


<Phoenix> Phoenix frowned at Paige. "It'd be best if you didn't have to pull them out."


<Kleo> Kleo’s cheek was pressed to Zakar's and his words won him the faintest nip to an earlobe. "Uh huh. Was definitely a defining moment in my life." she teased. Kleo went on, divulging various events that's taken place in her life. "...I was about 16 I think? When I started getting inked. My parents weren't too keen on it...but I pointed out all the other things I could've been addicted to...and that helped my case."
<Quoth> Quoth gave the woman a playful but firm swat on the *** as they left the dance floor.
Metronome Club 04/03/2014 20:22:00 Paige enjoyed pulling them out, but she did not question Phoenix. "Yes ma'am," she whispers.


<Klara> She smiled as she kissed his neck again "Good, never forget that feeling ever though I must admit it feels good to know you were jealous but no many could ever make me want them like I want you”


<Nevaeh> Nevaeh slips her hand in Ria', "Do you dance?" there was a nervous tension in the question.

<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen nods his head in agreement with Nix, as that is what he's been trying to get at. "We'll work on it together." He, again, smiles at Paige.

<Jonah> Jonah leaned back in his chair. "Just...know that it may not work."


<Paige>Paige attempts to return the smile.


<Macaria> Macaria looks uncomfortable, "Not if I can help it. I like music? I just don't enjoy looking like I'm being attacked with a cattle prod."


<Phoenix> "How do you work on teething together?"


<Cristiana> Cristiana slips about the room handing out more beads. Gold, Green and Purple to the guys and Pink to the ladies. She moved up behind Zoey whispering a hello in her ear but left the two on the dance floor.

<Paige> Paige looks at Jonah quietly.


<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen "Leading by example, verbal guiding." He nods his head.


<Phoenix> "Mind control."


<Nevaeh> Nevaeh was visibly relieved, "A common interest."

<Blake> Blake shrugged slightly. "I return the kindness the best I can." He took her in his arms and kissed her lightly as they began to dance.

<Axel Rosen> "If only I could control minds..." He ponders this for a bit.

<Simon Ward> Simon Ward His eyes narrowed on Klara, "I hate this new found power you have over me."

--The following transcript was a live chat roleplay--

<Paige> Paige will do whatever Axel says anyway.


<Kleo> Kleo took the pink beads pressed into her hand, giving Cristiana as much of a nod as she could. She held them tightly. If Zakar didn't think he'd earned the first strand, he could certainly earn this one


<Cristiana> Cristiana finds her slip of paper and marks off a few more votes. "Anyone else going to cast a vote??"


<Lyana> Lyana leaned into Zo, and drank slowly. She wouldn't be sober to much longer.


<Zakar> Zakar laughed as he spun her around, that slight nip tinging the laugh with a low growl, "I have no in, as you call it. Perhaps someday when I have a life changing event that I deem worth it, I'll get some. Who knows, maybe it will happen sooner rather than later....and if you are an artist, maybe you could be the one to put the ink in my skin."


<Zodiac> Zodiac *slips a purple set over Lyana's neck* just because


<Lyana> Lyana looked down at the purple set. "Yay!"


<Klara> Klara smiled as she slid her second set of beds over his head "Mmmmmm I hope to never use it again my love.


<Vasik> “Not for King or Queen, right?" He yelled across the room, finishing his drink. He was beginning to feel the buzz and giggled joyfully.


<Zodiac> Zodiac *helps hold her up*


<Paige> Paige hears Vasik yell and narrows her orange eyes at him.


<Nemesis> Nemesis rested her arms around his neck as she pressed her slender frame close to his, close enough that she could feel his breath against her lips when he spoke. She smiled softly as she felt a bead necklace being slipped around her neck, and then the words of her friend whispered into her ear. She pressed a thought into the woman's mind, moments before Blake's lips were pressing against her. Her eyes, dusted in a soft blue that matched the feather on her mask, fluttered closed as she swayed into his lead.


<Klara> Klara laughs at Vasik "seems someone is getting a bit toasted


<Lyana> Lyana smiled up at Zodiac, and sighed.


<Paige> Paige plays with the lion teeth in the ashtray again.


<Cristiana> “We need those last minute votes to break up this tie we have going on...”


<Lyana> “So about that dance?”


<Lyana> “A tie?!”


<Klara> “Have a vote off?”


<Cristiana> “We could do that.”


<Klara> “Only if I'm in the tie, I didn't show up half naked for nothing” *giggles*


<Zodiac> “Oh yes. If you are still able”


<Kleo> Kleo smiled as Zakar spun her, the ribbons at her hips rustling. "Ink would look great on you..." she said, and meant it.”I haven't picked up my machine in a while...but for someone like you, I could certainly make an exception. We could work together to bring your design to life on paper, taken as long as is necessary to get it just right...I miss it." she admitted


<Vasik> Vasik signals for another drink, belting out to the music with all his might with the power to sway the masses, the melodic tuning of angels.


<Lyana> Lyana nodded, and stood up holding her hand out to Zodiac. She was feeling good, but not THAT drunk... yet.


<Zodiac> Zodiac *grabs her hand and gets up, smirks as she begins to shake her hips, causing the bells to begin to jingle to the beat*


<Paige> Paige stands and levitates toward Vasik. While her body is enchanted by his pied piper power, her long bony fingers are already poised like claws, and when she reaches him she clenches her fist in his red hair and gives it a violent yank backward.


<Simon Ward> Simon Ward wrapping a hand around Klara's shoulders Simon watched the party.


<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen eyes Paige closely, watching her to make sure that she doesn't do anything against the rules of the party.


<Zakar> Zakar blurted without thinking, "I think all the ink I can see on you looks amazing! I would like to see more sometime and I would happily let you practice your artwork on me. Your body is like a temple with beautifully painted walls, Kleo."


<Vasik> Vasik spills some of his drink. "Ahh, AHH! Hey hey hey stop!" Vasik normally liked such gestures, but this was not the time nor place to negotiate such feelings. "Just... hear me out!"


<Lyana> Lyana giggled at her jingly bells. She jumped and moved to the beat. She rocked her hips against Zo's.


<Klara> Klara whispers in Simon's ear sliding a hand up his leg


<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen continues to watch the scene going on, and moves to edge of the both.


<Cristiana> Cristiana gets up on stage and talks clearly and sharply into the Microphone, "Excuse me... Excuse me...” She paused as the message comes into her head, looking in the audience she spots Zoey and gives her a wink before going on. "Okay! I have the winners of the costume contest...”


<Kleo> Kleo had been about to answer Zakar, but paused long enough to listen to Cristiana


<Blake> Blake held Zoey close and sighed as he danced with her. The amount of people and the way his mind was working was making him feel quite uncomfortable at that particular moment.


<Lyana> Lyana stopped and looked up to Crissy with her arms wrapped around Zo from their dancing.


<Paige> Paige doesn't seem interested in hearing the boy out. "You used your power on me," she growled accusingly in his ear. Her free hand moved up his bare torso and around his neck. Just as she was about to gouge him, her sire came close, and she loosened her grip to stare at him. What did that black eyed devil want? He was interfering with her spite.


<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen shakes his head at her and points back to the booth. "Not now." The only words he utters as he looks to the male, having spared him both more drama, and pain for the night.


<Cristiana> Cristiana announces, "For the men’s costume contest, the winner by far is Quoth! Love, get your sweet tush up here." She claps holding the thin sheet of paper marked with names and lines by them.


<Nemesis> Nemesis didn't want to stop the dance, but she did slow down a little when she heard Crissy's voice come in on the mic. She lifted her head to look at Blake, then back to the stage.


<Klara> Klara claps and smiles

<Zodiac> Zodiac *Whistles and claps* go witch doctor!


<Vasik> "Hey, you fell for it. I mean... hush... I was just singing! What can I say?" He chuckled a little bit, lifting his hands in a defensive, peaceful stance. "I just wanted to know if there was some way we could... you know... figure something out. But..." He eyed the black-eyed sire, "maybe another time..."


<Lyana> Lyana clapped and cheered! Go Quoth!


<Quoth> Quoth flashed a grin to the crowd, removing his top hat and taking a deep bow. Retrieving his cane from behind the bar he then made his way up onto the stage.


<Nemesis> Nemesis lifted one hand to her lips, two fingers pressed together, and let out a loud whistle.

<Paige> Paige’s orange eyes burned with irritation for a moment, but she released Vasik and levitated back to the booth. She sat across from Phoenix and glared at nothing. Work something out. She was not interested. At least, not that night. How did she know that the boy wasn't just trying to make amends for the sake of not being alone at the party? She glanced at the contest winners.


<Simon Ward> “Go Bro!”

<Zakar> Zakar thought he needed to learn to whistle like Zoey and resolved to ask her to teach him how.


<Cristiana> Cristiana grabs one of the trophies and holds it out for him. "Here you are my love. And now, for the very tight nit race. It was so close, only one vote made the winner in this. The Female costume contest winner is....."

<Jonah> Jonah watched Paige. "Are you ok?"


<Kleo> Kleo leaned into answer Zakar while the clapping for Quoth was going on. "Thank you...I can definitely show ya more...though there's not much left unseen as I am now." her lips curved upward against his ear. "Painted walls, hm? That's sweet of you...I hope ya enjoy admiring..."


<Lyana> “Zo!”


<Axel Rosen> Axel Rosen makes a note of the statement 'you fell for it'. He nods his head once as he commits it to memory, sure that he will bring it up at a later point in a conversation with the male that seems to have upset his childe. Finally he takes a seat down next to Nix again. His hand goes to one of Paige's shoulders, trying to console her as best he can.

<Zodiac> *hip bumps her* “Shhhh”


<Lyana> Lyana giggled.


<Jonah> Jonah claps for Zodiac


<Nemesis> Nemesis looked around...


<Cristiana> Cristiana turns to grab the second trophy from behind her, then turns back to the Microphone, "Kleo! .... with a very close Zodiac right behind her. Kleo please come get your trophy dear."

<Lyana> “I mean... Look at her folks!”


<Quoth> Quoth gives another gracious bow from the stage before taking his trophy and exiting stage right.


<Paige> Paige leans against her sire's side and nods up at Jonah with a slight blush of embarrassment. The clapping shatters all around her.


<Lyana> “Congrats Kleo!”

<Zodiac> Zodiac *whistles and applauds*


<Jonah> Jonah claps for Kleo

<Blake> Blake looked down at Zoey and simply remained silent.


<Simon Ward> Simon Ward whispered something to Klara.


<Klara> Klara claps and winds her hand thru his arm


<Nemesis> Nemesis peered up at the man and gave a tilt of her head. She sighed and spoke into his mind.


<Phoenix> Phoenix carefully placed her hand over Axel's free one, giving a gentle squeeze. Not that he needed it, Paige did, but she would have felt super awkward groping Paige.

--The following transcript was a live chat roleplay--


<Kleo> Kleo froze against Zakar as she heard her name called. "Oh! I won!" she said into his ear, as if he couldn't hear. She kissed his cheek and muttered a "Be Right Back" before strutting to the stage, and accepting the trophy


<Kleo> Thank y'all so much!


<Vasik> Vasik rubs his neck, avoiding eye contact with the crowd. It was true, he was only singing. He didn't want to cause trouble, but it was deep-set in his nature. He needed another drink to last the night.


<Zakar> cheered and clapped for the woman, thinking he was lucky that he had gotten to speak with and dance with her. She was definitely an attractive woman and he liked her for several reasons.

<Paige> Paige sees Jonah clapping and imitates the clapping. The feathers on her mask bounce some. Phoenix was wise in not touching Paige, who had a curse that gave her a nervous territorial condition which, paired with her animalistic curse, didn't do too well for people who touched her. If she disrespected her elder she would never forgive herself, but she sometimes lost to her instincts.


<Nemesis> Nemesis took Blake's hand and laced her fingers through his own, giving a firm squeeze.


<Lyana> Lyana turned Zo, and started to dance with her again.


<Cristiana> Cristiana tossed Zo a prize of Pink beads, these ones she had for herself had little red lip marks on them. "Zo dear, you look wonderful."


<Zodiac> “There we go *falls back into the groove*


<Lyana> Lyana caught the beads, and slipped them around her neck. “Much deserved”


<Zodiac> Zodiac *catches them* thanks ho! *laughs as she slips them on*


<Klara> Klara walks over to Vasik and hands him some beads smiling "Thanks for the good time tonight"


<Cristiana> Cristiana clears her throat as if that was going to be all. The lights in the room dimmed, "As I promised, a live performance, so I would like to welcome to the stage, for tonight only..... PINK!"


<Kleo> Kleo turned to the other on the stage with her and smiled at him- "Congrats ta you! Love the look"


<Cristiana> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qHpiHSLz7ac


<Kleo> Kleo took that as her cue to leave the stage, carefully stepping down and weaving through the bodies to find Zakar- trophy in hand


<Vasik> His smile picks up wider. "My pleasure, beautiful miss." He grabbed them with his lion’s jaws and managed to flip the beads around his neck. "And for you," he handed her a set of all three colors.


<Lyana> Lyana changed the dance to match Pink's music.


<Zakar> Zakar watched the woman's graceful movements and thought that of all the women gathered there, she had deserved to win. Maybe he was a little biased.


<Klara> Klara smiled "Well thank you kind sire!" *she curtsied and went back to Simon and kissed him deeply


<Nemesis> Nemesis turned in Blake's arms, so that her back ended up pressed to him. She took both of his hands, their digits linking together while she drew his arms tightly around her body.


<Kleo> Kleo gave the trophy a little wave in his face. "Fancy, isn't it?!" she grinned, snaking her free arm around his middle, beneath the vest he wore so that her hand was pressed to his bare back as she smiled ahead at him


<Lyana> ohweohweoh!


<Zakar> Zakar started picking his way through the people to get to Kleo, taking care not to bump into anyone.


<Kleo> oops


<Lyana> Lyana grinned and clapped as the first song ended.


<Blake> Blake held Zoey tightly and simply smiled.


<Kleo> pretendyourswasfirst <<]


<Vasik> Vasik nodded and turned back to the bar. Was it the drink getting to him? Or was it something else? But his mood was slowly degrading. He thought of Myk. If only he had been here this night. Perhaps he could get his mind off of Paige. Why had Paige bothered him so? Their last confrontation... no, he shouldn't think too hard on it. He took a final gulp and bobbed his head to the new set of music.


<Zakar> Zakar nodded as his arm slipped around her, "I won a trophy once, though not for anything like this. I won it for camel racing. My show of defiance as a young man to my family."


<Shidori Kuroko> Kuroko was not really sure what this Mardi Gras thing was but Crissy had told him to come. He wasn't sure what to wear. He'd settled on a sequined tank top and some body glitter. Hopefully it would be enough to not be a party pooper.


<Simon Ward> Simon Ward swirled his tongue around Klara's and when the kiss ended he looked at her.


<Paige> Paige sniffs the air and stares at Kuroko.


<Lyana> Kuroko!


<Lyana> Lyana waved to him from dancing with Zodiac.


<Kleo> Kleo held onto Zakar tightly, looking him in the eyes as he spoke to her. "That sounds like a sight to see." she smiled, fingers flexing around the trophy she was holding, wondering if she should go set it down alongside her head piece so that both hands could be on Zakar. "Maybe we could go riding sometime...racing? Definitely won't be camels...but there are horses and cars." she thought this was a good idea


<Shidori Kuroko> He blinked, hearing his name. "Oh hi Lyana-san!" He waved back. He pointed to the bar and made a drinking motion a la: I'll join ya when I've got booze.


<Lyana> Lyana nodded and smiled.


<Klara> Klara she smiled and noticed Kuroko coming in and waved


<Quoth> Quoth stashed his cane and trophy behind the bar, taking a little extra time to pour himself three fingers of whiskey from one of the colored bottles. Drink in hand he eventually made his way back into the crowd to circulate through the gathering.


<Zodiac> Zodiac Hey big guy! *smiles at Quoth before hugging him* congrats


<Zakar> Zakar caught a faint whiff of sandalwood and looked about, noticing a figure dressed in black and excused himself politely, "Pardon me for just a moment, I see someone I would like to say hello to. Be right back." he slipped away from Kleo and approached Aysel with a warm smile, and greeted her in Arabic.


<Shidori Kuroko> Kuroko waved back at Klara and then tried to get Quoth's attention. He wanted some too!


<Cristiana> Cristiana slipped off the stage to put the voting list up for the king and queen of the Metronome Party. She smiled at the new people coming in a bit sad that she missed saying hi to them. To make it up to them, she slipped them beads. Pink for the females and Green, gold and purple for the males.


<Jonah> Jonah saw AJ come in but paused in greeting her when he saw Zakar go to her, choosing to stay seated for now.


<Shidori Kuroko> Kuroko was distracted by shiny things. He blinked in confusion at the beads Crissy handed to him. "What is these?"


<Paige> Paige follows Jonah's gaze and tilts her head gently.


<Cristiana> “Beads, you give them out to people. ....”


<Lyana> “You are supposed to give me those Kuroko.” *Lyana teased.*


<Kleo> "Take your time." she said, her eyes following Zakar to Aysel. She took the free moment to exit the dance floor herself, stashing the trophy she'd won with the head dress she'd come wearing


<Quoth> Quoth stalled at the end of the bar, Kuroko having caught his attention. He grinned at the man before setting down his drink, "What will it be?"


<Aysel Johari> Aysel Johari gazed at Zakar and bowed slightly. "Wa-Alaikum-Salaam, Sarif El-Sayed." She responded, her voice low as she answered the rest of his question in their shared language.


<Cristiana> The purple was for Justice. The gold was for power. The last color, green was for faith.


<Jonah> Jonah hands Paige a string of purple beads.


<Lyana> Lyana moved back to the bar, and grabbed two more drinks. She walked back to Zodiac and handed her one before moving back to the table.


<Shidori Kuroko> "Ah whatever you drinking Quoth-san!" He still pronounced it ku-wo-su.


<Paige> Paige stares at the beads and puts them on, then gives him a string of gold beads. She attempts a smile.


<Nemesis> Nemesis spun around in Blake's arms so she could press her lips to his lightly, lingering there for a moment. "Let's have one drink. Just one."


<Zodiac> “Thanks. Who’s yer friend? *follows her*


<Lyana> Lyana whispered to her once they got sat down.


<Cristiana> Cristiana watches the performance by Pink at the bar sitting with a cool drink in her hand, beads rolling down the side of the glass to her fingers.


<Klara> Klara snuggles close to Simon listening to the music


<Shidori Kuroko> He looked at the strands of beads. "Um, okay."


<Kleo> Kleo stood upright after stowing away her possession, then turned to face the crowd, picking out the familiar faces


<Lyana> Lyana raised her drink to Zo in cheers.

<Zodiac > Zodiac *does the same*

<Zakar> Zakar returned the bow with a polite incline of his head and spoke softly, enjoying the cadence of the language and being able to speak to someone who understood him. With a warm smile, he continued to speak to her, having missed his friend since they had not spoken much lately.


<Vasik> Vasik laid his head on the counter of the bar, head swaying round and round in circles. Maybe he should head back, but he had come this long. He had to see who the king and queen were. He had to feel a sense of completion for the night.

<Quoth> Quoth nodded automatically reaching for the same red bottle. It was only at the last minute he thought better of it and grabbed the bottle of SoCo sitting beside it. He tossed a few cubes of ice into the bottom of a wide glass and poured Kuroko a generous helping before setting the glass in front of him.

<Aysel Johari> Aysel Johari had a confused look on her face as she gazed around, gloved hands neatly folded, she leaned slightly closer, her tone questioning as she asked him what was going on.
