Open Veni, vidi, vici

[Shane Ackley]

Shane headed into the great hall, he’d gone for something a little more fun this time around, a roman emperor, a toga, and a laurel wreath crown. He was wearing sandals that he knew were appropriate for looking close to what the real ones would’ve looked like, but the whole thing, in his mind was just the perfect costume for someone like him. The boy walked around the room, being very careful about how he moved, trying to act more emperor like, king like. The Hufflepuff eventually stopped by the snake table and grabbed some grapes and what was clearly some juice, but he’d just pretend it was the sweet nectar of the gods. Shane found himself a spot to sit in, where he could easily just watch over the room, eat his grapes and just let himself look for something more interesting to do. Someone perhaps to speak to or spend a little time with. Perhaps Lina was about the place - though with her it didn’t end how he was kind of hoping this would end. ​

 

[Sapphire Michaels]

Sapphire was bored once her boys were off with each other. She sighed, wondering around, before spotting a cute boy by himself. Well, that could be fun. She wandered over cautiously. "Hi," she greeted him with her best smile. "Would it offend the nobility if I sat down?" She flirted lightly.

 

[Shane Ackley]

Shane looked towards the girl who walked over, she was dressed nicely, a little hipster for his taste, but nicely. It was difficult to then discern what her costume would be. But he smiled at her words, a little smirk at the fact she appeared to be flirting with him, oh yeah, Shane was happy with that. "Only if she sits so far away," He moved the chair next to him out and let the flirty smirk sit on his features, "Tell me about this costume of yours," ​

 

[Avaria Lockwood]

Dang it

 

[Sapphire Michaels]

Sapphire smirked. Finally, someone to pay aattention. She sat next to him and flipped her hair, giving him a coy smile. "I believe it's called the 'hipster' look." She crossed her legs and let her hair fall over her face a bit. Sure, she could listen to Diana. But she wanted someone to pay attention to her little hints and make a move. "But as royalty I'm sure you already knew that," she flirted lightly.

 

[Shane Ackley]

Shane looked at her outfit, so he'd correctly pinned the look, but this meant that she didn't usually dress like this, but how did she dress. The girl wasn't in his year, and definitely not his house, so he wasn't sure he knew. He leaned towards her, and brushed the air from her face with a flirty smile on his face, "Of course I knew." he told her holding her gaze for a moment, and letting his gaze move to her lips before meeting her gaze again, "it's cute, but I think you'd make a better queen than some hipster," he told her with a flirty tone, he reach up to his laurel wreath and pulled it off his head, holding it out to her, "I'm Shane or Emperor Shane or Caesar, if you feel so inclined" ​

 

[Sapphire Michaels]

Sapphire chuckled, biting her lip as he brushed her hair out of her eyes. This was much more like it, she decided, pondering the crown he held out to her. "Sapphire," she responded, taking the crown and placing it on her own dark hair. "Everyone should be a queen at once," she said idly, reaching up and twirling a strand of his hair around her finger. "I suppose you could call me 'my lady', if you wanted," she said innocently.

 

[Shane Ackley]

Shane smiled as she took the crown from him and placed it on her own head. "Queen Sapph," he said almost testing out the words. Shane noted that she was as interested in this as he seemed to be, and he had to assume that she didn't want much of anything else. "You should be a queen your whole life," he let his finger gently move down her face, "My lady," he smiled, keeping the light and flirty look on his face, "Can I, an emperor, ask a favour from my Lady?" Shane leaned in a little closer to her, his gaze briefly moved to her lips with a keenness before he looked back up at her. ​

 

[Sapphire Michaels]

Sapphire let a small smile cross her lips as he ran a finger down her face. "Perhaps," she teased, "But my reign ends at midnight," she opened her sapphire eyes, giving him a coy grin. She ran a finger lightly down his chest as he leaned closer. "Oh, I dont know," she bit her lip, trying not to smile. "Is it a good favor?"

 

[Shane Ackley]

Shane smiled at her, unable to stop himself, especially as it just seemed that she was as interested in him as he was in her. At least for this moment, for now, "Oh it's pretty nice, I'd just like to ask for a kiss from my lady," he had never really be a subtle person, he aimed and tried to get exactly what he wanted. He didn't think it wasn't what she wanted either, he was sure she wouldn't mind a little kiss, "If it helps, I have been told I'm the best kisser of all the emperors,"​

 

[Sapphire Michaels]

Sapphire giggled at his straightforward request. "Oh, that is a good flavor. And quite a boast," she grinned impishly. "I wonder who's better, the emporer or the riff raff," she joked lightly, mostly to herself, before leaning in to kiss him. She paused just shy of his lips and placed a finger over them. She leaned back a little, sapphire eyes sparkling. "I do think that is a favor to be won. Besides," she leaned back, trailing her finger slowly down his lips and chin, "Perhaps it would be better one when I'm escorted back to my castle. Without so many commoners about," she hinted idly, winking and turning back to survey the party.

 

[Shane Ackley]

Shane felt himself smirk as she leaned in, only to stop a little short of kissing him, instead thinking that he should earn it. He playfully rolled his eyes, and though he hadn't been at the event long he just nodded. He got to his feet and offered out his arm to her, "I will do my duty and escort you back to your castle," Shane replied with a flirty tone, if she didn't want to kiss in front of so many other people, he wasn't going to force her. If she wanted somewhere private, he was more than happy to do that. ​

 

[Sapphire Michaels]

Sapphire laughed as he stood and offered her his arm. Well fine, then, if he was that eager. She stood, lacing her arm through his. These parties were always boring anyway. "I know a few shortcuts," she smiled at him. "I'm a prefect, you know, I know how to get around." She also knew where Chrys and Onyx wouldnt be. She had plans of her own, she didnt want to interrupt her brother's. Again. She motioned for Shane to lead the way.

 

[Shane Ackley]

Shane smiled at her, "Oh a prefect, should I be careful," he began to lead her out of the great hall, "but don't you worry, I also definitely know how to get around," there was a little smirk on his tone, a flirty expression on his face. He would let her point him in the direct he needed to go, but he was definitely, firmly taking the lead.​
