[D4 LE] Information Event: Eyes wide shut - Roleplay thread

[Susumu Sumiko]

"Tricky." Rei murmured, looking at her. "I fear that Emerald-chan might be a bit too on the nose. And yet, I find myself drawn to it, somehow. What do you think of that one?"

Taking a drink, he shifted just a little closer. "The Golden Frog is a fine establishment. I often go there myself. There's a booth by the window that I particularly like to have a drink in, sometimes with company. A good variety of drinks, too."

He turned his smile back on his companion. "But if the Young Lover is your drink of choice, well then. Perhaps we should get you another." His teeth flashed playfully at her.

"Hmm, Emerald-chan? It does have a very strong meaning, I quite like it" Sumiko nodded "I'll allow it."

"Hmm, a booth in the window you say..." She turned slightly to look at the man as he drew closer "it would ruin the mystery if I found you there, yet it would be interesting to see if you could tell who I was. Maybe I'll meet you there sometime and test the theory, we can share a Young Lovers together" there was a grin at the wording "or maybe you will not realise it's me, yet still make the same offer?"

[Usagi Rei]

"Hmmm." Rei tilted his head, considering that. "It seems to me that even if you met someone at a booth who looked rather like Mysterious-kun, and I met someone who reminded me of Emerald-chan, there would always be that little thrill of uncertainty. An uncertainty that could only be satisfied when we enjoyed that Young Lovers together." His lips curled up at the corner.

Tilting his head, he regarded her. "Until then, I may be offering drinks to a lot of women. Fortunately, even on World of Dreams, I don't think there's many who have your lovely green eyes."

[Miya Nishida]

The Little Fox stared at the Mystery Man rather vacantly. It kinda reminded them of the Usagi but not quite.

"Errrrr I don't think I've met them."

The Crab hint had not been ignored, he just hadn't talked to any Crab on the planet as yet.

"Oh, you really don't? I would have expected that he would be recognized immediately everywhere. He's been the talk of the town lately, Kitsune-Tan."

[Asahina Hinata]

"Oh, you really don't? I would have expected that he would be recognized immediately everywhere. He's been the talk of the town lately, Kitsune-Tan."

Now gossip was something the lil fox had more than a passing interest in, and it was hardly difficult to come by it on a Scorpion world.

"Oh the one that's stalking Yakumo-samaaa?"

[Boogiepop]

The woman raised her brows curiously at the language and let out a chuckle. "I suppose they potentially could, especially when they come from a haunting presence such as you. Charming too, of course." She would indicate Yuji and Kimurahime in turn, or perhaps at the same time.


Susumu Kimurahime

"While my prince is indeed haunting as he is majestic but I believe he only strives to make leave the fondest of impressions with the valuable time you've spared with us, my lady." Kimurahime would say with a deep of her head before looking over to Yuji with a loving smile. "A part of me will be a bit disappointed if this acquaintance will go no further than tonight."

[Susumu Yuji]

The woman raised her brows curiously at the language and let out a chuckle. "I suppose they potentially could, especially when they come from a haunting presence such as you. Charming too, of course." She would indicate Yuji and Kimurahime in turn, or perhaps at the same time.

"While my prince is indeed haunting as he is majestic but I believe he only strives to make leave the fondest of impressions with the valuable time you've spared with us, my lady." Kimurahime would say with a deep of her head before looking over to Yuji with a loving smile. "A part of me will be a bit disappointed if this acquaintance will go no further than tonight."

His gaze back to Kimurahime showed all the affection in the galaxy. Yuji's posture straightening. That appreciative look moving back to theie new acquaintenance. "I would agree, my darling. If our blossoming conversation grew into a bouquet of... friendship." Those red eyes catching the dim lighting of the hall.

"Perhaps if the moments absconded here are a delight, there's always a way to secure our own hidden garden of delights elsewhere."

"Perhaps if the moments absconded here are a delight, there's always a way to secure our own hidden garden of delights elsewhere."

The woman chuckled at Yuji after another small sip of her wine. "Such choice of words...Shadow-san. There are just so many ways I could take that statement, not that I don't appreciate the effort in them. However, I will admit that you have me at least a bit intrigued. It seems you know what you want but are you so sure about what you're getting?"

[Utaku Yesugen]

"So one must earn the privilege, neh?" Sak7ra danced along gladly....until she accidentally stepped on Yesugen's toes. "Gomenasai Neko-sama!" The alluring temptress perspna quickly shattered.

"I would assume it's uncommon for anyone to be forthcoming with their emotions to everyone they come across," Yesugen said blandly. She had nothing to prove to the nice-smelling stranger, after all.

The step on the foot, at first, she took as part of the game. Perhaps it still was. Nonetheless, her training kept her from screaming out of pain. When death came for her, it was likely that nobody would hear it. "Please refrain from repeating that. My foot isn't invulnerable."

Thoughtfully drinking from his cup, Yuji raised an eyebrow, though that likely wasn't discernable beneath the mask. "That is part of the enjoyment, the mystery. It adds to it all." The faintest bite of his lip, pressing into Kimurahime's side. "And it would be more what we are getting, and giving, Golden one."

[Miya Nishida]

Now gossip was something the lil fox had more than a passing interest in, and it was hardly difficult to come by it on a Scorpion world.

"Oh the one that's stalking Yakumo-samaaa?"

He clapped, "Exactly my little Kitsune!" He took another sip of his sake and continued: "So who should we figure out next?"

[Asahina Hinata]

He clapped, "Exactly my little Kitsune!" He took another sip of his sake and continued: "So who should we figure out next?"

The fox bit their bottom lip as they looked around the room trying to figure out another mask to try. It was not helped by genuinely not knowing who any of the participants were.

"Oh how about the dancing cat over there!?!?!?!"

The dancing cat that was recovering from being stood on . . .

[Hotaru Sakura]

"I would assume it's uncommon for anyone to be forthcoming with their emotions to everyone they come across," Yesugen said blandly. She had nothing to prove to the nice-smelling stranger, after all.

"So sory, I didn't mean to!" Sakura was not quite panicking, but damn close enough. "Can I make it up to you?"

[Boogiepop]

Thoughtfully drinking from his cup, Yuji raised an eyebrow, though that likely wasn't discernable beneath the mask. "That is part of the enjoyment, the mystery. It adds to it all." The faintest bite of his lip, pressing into Kimurahime's side. "And it would be more what we are getting, and giving, Golden one."

"Of course, we wouldn't be here if we didn't commit and revel in the mystery of the night, which both of you wears so well," she said before taking another sip of her glass. "You lovely couple do put on a good show but I suppose the real review will come after the curtain drops, hm?"

[Utaku Yesugen]

"So sory, I didn't mean to!" Sakura was not quite panicking, but damn close enough. "Can I make it up to you?"

"There's not much to be done," Yesugen said. Unlike her dance partner, she didn't feel panic. Or much of anything. "I will move forward."

[Susumu Sumiko]

"Hmmm." Rei tilted his head, considering that. "It seems to me that even if you met someone at a booth who looked rather like Mysterious-kun, and I met someone who reminded me of Emerald-chan, there would always be that little thrill of uncertainty. An uncertainty that could only be satisfied when we enjoyed that Young Lovers together." His lips curled up at the corner.

"The thrill of uncertainty" Sumiko repeated, a grin on her face "well then, perhaps you will share that drink with her once again in the future. Perhaps not. Keep your eyes peeled and a surprise might be waiting for you."

She raised her drink.

"But the drinks now are real and can be shared. A toast perhaps? Also If my eyes are such a giveaway though, I'll have to buy sunglasses. They are quite unique I must say."

[Hotaru Sakura]

"So sory, I didn't mean to!" Sakura was not quite panicking, but damn close enough. "Can I make it up to you?"

"There's not much to be done," Yesugen said. Unlike her dance partner, she didn't feel panic. Or much of anything. "I will move forward."

Sakura bowed once again. "You are right Neko-sama. I hope I didn't ruin your evening."

[Susumu Yuji]

Thoughtfully drinking from his cup, Yuji raised an eyebrow, though that likely wasn't discernable beneath the mask. "That is part of the enjoyment, the mystery. It adds to it all." The faintest bite of his lip, pressing into Kimurahime's side. "And it would be more what we are getting, and giving, Golden one."

Yuji's arm slowly slipped behind Kimurahime, his hand finding the small of her back. "And I am sure you would be a discerning judge, to best give that commentary." A slow blink as he watched the Golden one for her reaction. Yet he always kept sight of his wife at his side.

[Utaku Yesugen]

Sakura bowed once again. "You are right Neko-sama. I hope I didn't ruin your evening."

"You ruined nothing," Yesugen said, her tone failing to really convey how little she cared about a minor inconvenience. "This place is cramped. It was bound to happen to somebody."

[Boogiepop]

Yuji's arm slowly slipped behind Kimurahime, his hand finding the small of her back. "And I am sure you would be a discerning judge, to best give that commentary." A slow blink as he watched the Golden one for her reaction. Yet he always kept sight of his wife at his side.

"Oh, I know that I will fit into the role very well." She said with a polite smile. "I'm hardly a magistrate by any stretch of the imagination but you could say that I know very well how spectacles are managed."


Susumu Kimurahime

There was a small smile on Kimurahime's lips at the attention given by her husband and she would turn to half-whisper to Yuji. "Perhaps, we could consider meeting her outside of the party without masks. If you find her worthy enough of a guest, my prince? She might not be a Scorpion, however..."

[Susumu Yuji]

"I do. I'm glad she appeals to you, as well, my darling. A Scorpion or not, she is exceedingly charming." He answered Kimurahime in kind, nodding his head before looking again to the Golden one before them. His head tilted slightly, the smile firmly affixed, promising more than just simple pleasantries.

"What do you say we get away from these masks, and seize the night for ourselves?" Yuji's eyes fell to that Golden mask, "And get to know each other a little better?"
