[attr="class","illeana i"]there's a subtleness to the way her body practically melts all tension away when is close by. it's by no means the familiar proximity she prefers but she's sort of a noticeable figure even without a mask. the white hair and scar tend to give her away without much effort.

a mask hides the rosy flush away, tucked behind ornate decorum and left to simmer across the skin.

"thank you."

it spreads to her ears soon enough and there, it winks at him.

he gifts her something special, then: a break away from his duty. her eyes ignite with an odd sort of mixture, as if torn between delight and mischief. it pairs well enough with the mask to not think twice.

"yes, please."

the smile spreads until her cheeks threaten to break apart.

"i believe you promised me a dance."

and too many people be damned... she softly sweeps his hand up into hers and leads him away from the allure of a crowded dancefloor, away from his post. the scar shifting across her back almost seems to wink at passerbys as they head for an empty display corridor.

masquerade!
dress, mask.

tl;dr |
- :poochywag:
- stealing her man away bye ya'll

Lounging by the drinks with a glass of wine in hand, Gavin is lifted from his thoughts by the faint scent of Lily-of-the-Valley. It strengthens at the approach of one , recognizable not for the butterfly mask but for the flowers adorning her ensemble and the distinct floral aroma of the perfume.
[break][break]

He is amused but not surprised to find she recognizes him as well; they were best friends, after all.
[break][break]

"Hardly," he laughs. "I've turned down a few. You'd have had to fight that handsome gentleman there for my company, had I not stolen away for a drink." He indicates in his wolf mask, smirking.
[break][break]

It does not occur to him that Elisabeth may not realise he's talking about his husband, and not simply utilizing anonymity to enjoy the company of other men.
[break][break]

"But I could hardly reject one such as yourself."
[break][break]

He extends his hand with a flourish, offering.

as they make their way over to the dancefloor, he scans the room for any familiar faces, though quickly finds that it's more difficult than he realizes.[break][break]

the tall girafarig with looks familiar but he can't quite place why. maybe he could if they were closer but it looks as though they're drifting elsewhere, away from the crowd, which is also curious in itself.[break][break]

interesting.[break][break]

now on the dancefloor, his attention shifts back to his date, and it's with ease that they start dancing.[break][break]

A gentle tip back of the glass allowed her to swiftly finish her champagne, depositing the empty drink on the bar counter as Elisabeth turned to with an easy smile.[break][break]

"Well, he wouldn't be the first man I went toe-to-toe with tonight." She leaned towards the underboss, murmuring with a self-satisfied, conspiratorial air, "And he would not even be the last."[break][break]

For all her own private cynicisms on the sanctity of marriage, there was no such expectation of adultery in her at Gavin's invitation to dance.[break][break]

It showed in the way Elisabeth breezily joined him onto the ballroom dance floor in a flutter of champagne skirts -- no intent in her eyes save for the pleasure of a dance with a dear, close friend.[break][break]

“oh, don’t worry, darling. if anyone should be fashionably late, it’s us.”[break][break]
they arrived, stepping out of the limousine to be met with cameras. velda and her ditto were dressed to the nines and tens and whatever other integers. as they passed, louis held a hand up to greet everyone casually.[break][break]
they made their way inside, and velda’s eyes passed around the room, dreamily catching glimpses of familiar creations. she admired the way they swayed in a waltz across the floor, and how the masks added drama. a story to the dance.[break][break]
”i love a good masquerade,” she smiled, offering her hand to her stylishly disguised date. ”shall we, louis?”[break][break]
and he led her to the dancefloor. hand in hand, they were in motion.

Nenet is routinely fifteen minutes late with coffee, as the joke goes, though this time she lacks the coffee. Her golden eyes trained intently on the phone in her hands, she furiously texts her student workers currently manning the telescope - her jaw set with stress, she swears softly at the latest reply. Frowning deeply, she stands in the doorway a moment before exhaling, a few more punctuated texts fired off before she places her phone on silent and tucks it into the gilded clutch attached to her wrist.
[break][break]
Inhaling a deep breath, her expression behind the radiant half-mask of a sun eases and a certain poise overcomes her stature. She's dressed in a brilliant gown enrobed with a gauzy wrap around her shoulders, the creamy silk of the dress accentuated with aureate crystals that catch the light.
[break][break]
Nenet lifts a champagne glass from a passing waiter and allows her gaze to sweep the room, and she easily finds what she's looking for. Zev dancing with some woman; good, he won't have been too bored without her.
[break][break]
Downing the rest of her drink at once, she drops the empty glass onto a passing waiter's tray and sees herself to the couple. It's with a graceful, elegant side-step that she cuts into the dance, a playful wink offered as she takes the blonde woman's place. "I'll take over from here," she drawls confidently before allowing herself to be swept away with the music and Zev.
[break][break]
Her expression turning somewhat apologetically to , she continues, "I'm sorry I'm late, work is insane as ever."
[break][break]
The clutch at her wrist vibrates, and Nenet pauses, appearing deeply torn despite the mask covering her expression. Pressing her eyes closed a moment, she valiantly attempts to ignore the text and says instead, "Have you been having fun without me?"

soon enough, the music starts, dispersing groups as the majority make their way over to the dance floor. and at 's invitation, his nod is almost expected. why would he ever say no to dancing with her?[break][break]

"let's."[break][break]

and onto the dance floor they go, joining many others to become masks lost to music and the moment.[break][break]

In her gold, glimmering dress, was absolutely breathtaking. Even in all her impeccable elegance paled in comparison to the full glory of the sun descending upon the ballroom. The tension in Zev's body melted away as he took Nenet in his arms. He drew her close, the hand at her back slipping beneath the wrap around her shoulders to stroke at bare skin.[break][break]

"It's fine," Zev replied lightly as he graced her with a fond smile. "I know how important your work is."[break][break]

The music changed fluidly from one song to another. Without a pause in his step, he led Nenet in a new dance, just as they had practiced during all those late nights in the Mossdeep Space Center.[break][break]

Compared to the aggression he'd displayed while dancing with Elisabeth, Zev's movements now were calm and composed, as if the wolf inside him had finally been sated with Nenet's arrival. He kept his eyes focused on hers, ice blue on deep gold.[break][break]

Then her phone buzzed, and for a moment, Zev wondered if she would stop their dance to answer it. When she didn't, a sense of triumphant satisfaction filled him.[break][break]

"I have," he said, nodding. "I've had a bit to drink," he added with a laugh. "But not too much, I promise. Not yet, anyway."[break][break]

His smile turned impish, and he winked playfully at her from behind his mask.

The man in the autumnal mask approached Yumi, his stride and demeanor full of intent. She met his gaze with a neutral expression, though her heartrate quickened with every step that drew him closer.[break][break]

When he extended his hand to her, she maintained her apathy while she finished her drink and set the glass down on a nearby Bulbasaur's tray. But then she quirked her eyebrow at Girard, skeptical.[break][break]

"Even the most beautiful woman in the world can enjoy her own company," Yumi replied, haughty, "and it's often preferable to spending even a moment with undeserving men."[break][break]

A smile finally curled her lips, though it was full of challenge. She rose to her feet without the aid of his outstretched hand.[break][break]

"Prove to me you're worthy."[break][break]

She glided past Girard until she was alone on the dance floor, then turned and looked right at him, expecting him to join her there at once.

Oh~ Now that does sound fun.” Barnaby replied, a devilish smirk on his lips. Mars posed a unique opportunity to catch people unawares, when they relied too heavily on fragile anonymity. It was just the kind of juicy sport that Barnaby reveled in.

To ’s other comment, however, Barnaby simply sipped his champagne and whispered teasingly, “... mmm, don’t keep me waiting in suspense too long.

With that said, his thoughts and eyes were refocused on finding their first target of scrutiny. It didn’t take long for them to catch on a particularly extravagantly-dressed partygoer. Was that in such a stunning dress? It was hard to say given her mask, but that was Barnaby’s initial guess. Well, until the woman began to boldly strut toward him and Mars, demonstrating a familiarity that was more than what the musical sensation would have shown.

Summer, you look immaculate in that dress. Your tits? Perfection.” Barnaby complimented in a low tone, just loud enough for their little group to hear, once he realized who had approached them. Didn’t want to give her identity away, after all, in case it was something she was trying to keep to herself.

To her probing questions Barnaby flashed a glinting smile, heightened by the contrast of his mask. “I suppose the Meowth’s out of the bag.” In a warmer, fonder tone, his eyes passed from Summer to . “Would you like to tell her or shall I?

”tell you what, vollans. you find someone who can do my job better, and i’ll step aside.”

which meant never. bo knew his city like the back of his hand. he knew its people and pokemon, grown and baby (some of them at least) and would show up at any hour for it. he was especially dedicated to this second-chance purpose because, above all, he had something monumental to prove to himself.

all this didn’t dispel any self-doubt, but in the face of skepticism, it gave him ground to dig his heels into.

”til then, guess you’ll just have to trust i’ll have your back like i said i would.”

THIS POST FOLLOWS THE EVENTS OF BRIDGERTON IRL
[break][break]
Spending time with was always a blessing Penelope would cherish forever. Whether it be at a masquerade as grandiose as this, or hidden away at their Ever Grade Apartment, they always managed to make something out of their environment. It's what drew her to his side, time and time again.
[break][break]


"Thank you for that," she murmured into his ear, smiling just as she did the first date they spent together, chasing after the stars within Lilycove City's farmer market. "And for this."
[break][break]


Hand cupping the outline of his cheek, Penelope brought him in for a short peck on the lips. A temporary farewell.
[break][break]


"I'm going to go check in on someone. Maybe go and see if you can find your brothers, hmm? I'm sure they're here...somewhere."
[break][break]


Maybe not his twin , but  had to be lurking around here somewhere, right? Most of Hoenn was here already. Or, well, they were supposed to be here already.
[break][break]


"I love you. See you in a bit."
[break][break]


With that, the councilwoman left, moving back toward the bar, where she had spotted a certain blonde ( ) just moments earlier. When her eyes had found him once more, she smiled and planted herself beside him. Arms balancing off the edge of the bartop, she called for the bartender with the flick of her chin, quickly ordering herself another drink ( a pisco sour, to be exact).
[break][break]


"Having fun yet?"

Gunner drank at a leisurely pace, content to relax at the bar and watch the dancing continue. He spotted as she reentered the ballroom and swept toward a pair of men, as perfectly composed as she'd been when she had arrived. They seemed to be chatting like old friends — and even if they were more than that, none of it was Gunner's business.[break][break]

As the song came to an end, he noticed in the crowd with her blonde-haired date. She gave her partner a parting kiss before approaching the bar. Her eyes met Gunner's, and she slid over with a smile.[break][break]

"As much fun as someone can have while on duty," he replied. He gave her a mild, polite smile — or tried, but he wondered if it was, perhaps, looser than usual. Blame it on the alcohol.[break][break]

Speaking of which, he raised his glass at her. "I promise I won't drink too much."[break][break]

Then Gunner immediately took another sip, and his smile widened into a rare grin. No, his spirits were far too high to fully blame the alcohol.[break][break]

"What about you, Miss Livy? Having fun?"
