(1906) Summers Ascent

[Circe]

Circe had different ring tones for her phone depending on who called her. So she knew it was Cole texting her, so she decided to check. Whatever joy may have come from that knowledge died on seeing the message. Circe even unbottoned her coat as narrowed eyes glared at Fawkes off where he was by himself. Circe needed to backtrack on what she'd taunted Titania with and did so quick. Her voice was hard, "On second thought Titania, safest ta avoid bein' alone with him right now," nor did her glare ever stray from Fawkes.


Amusement was gone from the Fairest, she was ready for a psycho to cut loose at any moment. Her glare then turned towards Richard Price. Who seemed to be getting a call of his own. Circe didn't care, "Are ya aware of this problem Richard? How bad is this gonna be?"


Because if Richard had ordered Fawkes to snuff out Cole, Circe wouldn't hesitate to air the issue and draw her gun. If he didn't, Circe still had no problem with telling the others what the problem was.

[Sonnie Wu]

Sonnie, having located some shrimp cocktail at the buffet table, made herself a plate and wandered back to the general grouping of changelings. A healthy-sized shrimp (because obviously Rich wouldn't cheap out and skimp on the shrimp) was nom'd as she looked to Sasha and smiled, "No worries at all. You're totally killing it in that dress!

She raised an eyebrow curiously, "Pictures and a... lion fountain? Nope, I just arrived a minute before you did. I don't think anyone has been out back yet. Does the fountain look like a lion? I'd like to see that!" Another shrimp was devoured.

[Krakenbox]

Origins I'd review continuity? The date of this thread is June 20th Summer Solstice Circe does not recieve future texts?

[Origins]

ooc: D'oh! I mixed up how continuity works with ES and Stickies. For some reason, stupidity probably, I thought ES was in continuity on date of first post but that is the other type. My bad, disregard Circe's previous post completely. Sorry <bows head in shame>

[Rhodes]

The Dread Lord smiles at Sera. "I am something of a fan myself," he whispers.

Circe is as playful as ever. "Gunpowder? Subtle for you, isn't it? And just where would you get such a photograph?" Rhodes pauses, and holds up a hand. "You know What? Forget it. I don't want to know." he chuckles. "Back in a moment."

The Dread Lord slips off the bar, returning with a red wine and a lemonade, handing the lemonade to Sera. "There you are sweetheart. If you would excuse me, I have a little business to take care of before enjoying the party."

He turns to the other Monarchs. "King Richard? Lady Sasha? I have a few things for each of you."

The Dread Lord reaches in to his jacked and pulls out three envelopes - two in a similar hand marked for the Winter and Summer sovereigns, and a third for Richard in a different hand.

"Sadly, Mr Moon has been taken away, but he did ask I pass this along to you this evening," he says to Richard, then looking between them and handing them each an envelope. "The matching ones contain copies of the agreed Oath for each of you." He turns to Richard. "I realise this is Summer's event, so please, announce it when you see fit. I would ask, however, given magics and pledges are Fall's domain if you would permit me to perform the actual swearing of the Pledge, I would appreciate it."

[Seraphina]

There were times when Sera was reminded how distracted Sonnie could get. This was a prime example. But, she shrugs, it was still an endearing quality of the Beast.

She looks surprised at what Sasha says, “Doubts? You always look amazing in what you wear! Always perfect for the occasion.” She compliments with a smile. And hearing her talk more, the Nix felt a bit underdressed. Maybe she should have gone with one of her more fancy dresses? She glances down at her more summery dress, frowning ever so slightly. But quickly smiles, “No, not yet. But I’d love to take a stroll back there. I enjoy fountains.” Maybe it was the calming sound?

Grinning at Sonnie, “Maybe we should all head there? Take a look.” She offers.

Accepting the lemonade, she smiles, “Thank you.” Seemed there was business to take care of, and she nods, placing a hand on his arm, “Try to not have too much fun.” She says with a smile and wink.

Looking to Sonnie and Circe, “So about these activities,” she begins, “what made Summer decide on them? I have to confess, I’ve never shot any type of gun before. Can it be done in a dress?”

[Circe]

Circe smiles happily at the Dread Lord's accusation of subtlety, but the smile grows to include a lot of teeth when her shipping scares him. The gunbunny loudly shouts the answer after him despite his request to not, "INTERNET!"

And then Seraphina had her attention, "Huh? Oh! Committee decision. Basically who can do what," she was talking with her hands moving as usual, "And how well. Ya shouldn't have problem. I won't say it'll look hot though Sera," she shakes her head, "It is really hard ta look hot with a pellet gun. But no recoil so the dress should come out fine. I honestly can think of a way yer dress could get ruined by a BB gun," the elfin Fairest shrugs while eying Seraphina's dress. She was being entirely honest about that too.

Her eyes did dart away to note the arrival of the red Ogress.

Penance's attire got a raised eyebrow and ear from Circe as the woman seemed to have taken her advice that blue on red was a good color for the Autumn Ogress. She then focuses on Seraphina with a phrase that entered her head, "And ain't no reason ta kick ass in all yer finery. Do it with style!" A blue hand gives Seraphine a thumbs up.

[Titania]

Brief pleasantries are exchanged with the party-goers, who on their part have almost settled in groups. Like always the ladies look dashing and the gentlemen dapper in their suits.
Circe's spicy inference would have been dutifully ignored if not for the burn that rose in the Telluric's ears. Considering their past encounter and the fact she was wearing his jacket, the Bright One decides to join the Elemental by the patio.
