faefeasts: the midwinter gala - IC

[Her dry voice breaks through, pondering, edged by curiosity masking itself as dullness, or perhaps that is the intent.]

Who knew so many broken hearts could still beat so fiercely. Tell me, what is it you're so afraid of?

You know, I'm beginning to understand why some people seem ready to spit hairballs after these little "events" over the course of the night. Granted, I'm generally amused and don't mind these diversions, but this time, I'll express a mild discontentment. I've much preferred our previous amusements.

[Private wisp to Liv]
As previously mentioned, you were an exception to the diversions. I'm still interested in showing you a proper time, without the need for potions, if you are.

[Private wisp to candles]
My only apology is slight: a previous encounter had me less than forgiving. Still, you were enjoyable even when defiant.

Of course, I would arrive too late to partake in such a party. Pity!

My, that was...

bracing.

[the wisp makes an almost squeaky noise]

As I had thought. I missed the certainty of solitude. If one does not wish to be found, then there are a plethora of options available to them. Tell me, what benefit does being surrounded by the masses bestow?

[The voice is distinctly masculine with an amused lilt to it. For those who know him, there is no mistaking who it is.]

Another ball. Has it really been so long since the last one?

[His voice is deep, rich, and wonderfully, vibrantly alive. It's also a little... off in some not quite defineable way. It has been a while since he has used it and the lack of practice is noticeable.]

I was delayed. A problem arose that required my attention. I trust I did not miss much in my absence.

[Private to the fae]
How much longer must we retain these forms? I have only just come back to mine and already it is so [...] restrictive.

You know, I have always- and this might be my half-baked, human pudding mind talking here- but I have always wondered how the outside of the castle relates to the inside of the castle. Like take for instance you're on the roof. What room are you sitting over? Is it different for everyone in the castle? Say, if somebody rapped on a shingle-

[this is Isegrim very obviously knocking on a shingle]

Would you only hear that sound in one room? Or would it be possible for two people in another room to hear that sound and think it was coming from opposite directions? [knocks again] Questions, questions.

In any case, there's one hell of a view up here.

[The voice curling out from the wisp is familiar to those who have been in the realm as long as broken love has existed. It's a sultry tone naturally, without the intent of seduction, there is a touch of monotone boredom to the words as they make their way into open air.]

Well, well, well. Another Midsummer brings yet another ball, persuading me out from the mortal realm. I do hope you have all been enjoying yourselves to the fullest, and I do mean to the fullest.

[Mavis]

Please tell me the batch at this ball is better than the last.
