    (Bookmark, and Resisting)Glamour 1 Willpower Spent

    None could deny that the monarch was Fairest, of that Cei was certain. Most all that Cei had encountered held an air about them, that almost mimicked the incubus' own. The trickiest part for the Incubus was gauging whether or not it was Pride or merit. Of course Monarchs usually had merit to hold their title, of that the Courtless would not deny- but he had no plans to succumb so easily, to the prodding or the attempt to instill fear.

    So it was that Cei took a slight step closer- not too close to intrude on personal space, or to attempt to intimidate, but enough to show quite clearly the lack of effect the Monarch's purely mundane attempt had.
    "That would be something to see indeed, had I enough that something this simple might give you mine. But I will not deny your claim to fear, Rhodes." Was it a trick of the light, or did all the eyes on Cei's armor seem to somehow turn to stare at Rhodes? Not glare- just look, unnervingly. Though the Incubus wasn't such to believe himself stronger than the Monarch (well... in terms of Fairie ability, at least), this small success was enough- and a lovely exhale at the feeling of it. This wasn't like harvesting, but it was satisfying nonetheless.

    "And I will not deny your position, Monarch- I am glad to see someone willing to express their title so readily. I look forward to the challenges within and in assisting this Freehold- and to seeing what else you possess." Not said with malice. A warm smile as Cei scanned the room to see who else, if anyone, might wish to converse. He noted the 'darling,' and was curious at their connection- but wouldn't prod further yet. This had been enough.

    Softly shimmering gold flakes catch the light whenever she moves, delicate gilded and diamond scales extenuate the luminescent sapphires that are her eyes. The ocean lives in Sera's eyes, perfectly cut sapphires, gleam in the light. Deeper shades always shifting like the tide. The scales trail up to her temples and forehead. Her hair reaches down her back, brushing the back of her calves, spun silver and gold. Perfectly placed streaks of sea green are seen throughout her hair. Very fine diamond dust falls loose from her hair when she moves, reflecting rainbows from the light. The scales on her hands are dulled by the simple fact that her hands are translucent. There was an iridescent scale like skin that pulled delicately up from her ears. The membrane shimmered and created three curly points.

    Treasured Nix

    There was a smile offered to Sonnie and a nod.

    Feeling the chill from his Mantle, she wants her cloak back, as her long skirt rustles with the breeze. It was hard to ignore the whispers, their words cutting. But she pushes them to the side, focusing on what was in front of her.

    Rhodes words hit close to home, the Freehold looked out for one another. It was the way it had always been, and the way it would continue to be. But him stepping into his role as Monarch? It was kinda hot.

    A gloved hand accepts his, “I’d love one.” Seemed Rhodes was done dealing with the new guy. Sera was curious about him, because he was new. But his arrogance was grating.

    And as Cei stepped closer, her own Mantle picked up, the warm breeze and petals swirling around her feet, the wild flowers dancing, the depth of her sapphires deepening.

    “Simple?” asks the Nix, a slow smile appearing, “That’s cute.” One didn’t have to give when it was easy to take. Oh, how easy it would be to take his desires and twist them.

    But she was already done with him, her attention moving on. And she spies one of the new guys, an Autumn if she remembered right, sitting alone. She has to wonder what happened.

    Mask:

    An alluring young beauty, Sonnie Wu is 5'2" and lean-bodied, with a light, nimble step and eyes that seem to say "Hey, you know what would be fun?" Her reddish-brown hair often seems slightly unkempt, and an amused smile regularly plays on her lips. Sonnie is usually dressed casually or for outdoor activity. She almost always wears a pair of red leather tabi boots.
    Mien:

    To the eyes of Fae, Sonnie's feet are like those of a monkey: Toes as long as fingers, with one on each foot being opposable like a thumb. A long monkey tail protrudes from the base of Sonnie's spine, covered in hair the same shade as her head. It appears to be prehensile, and often moves to react to her mood and dances about when she speaks, like people who "talk with their hands." Finally, her brown eyes turn golden.

    The simian Beast, munching of some sort of goblin fruit that looked like an pale yellow eggplant with wiggling tentacles, eyed the exchange between the Fairest: Rhodes, Seraphina, and the newly arrived Cei. The social dance the Unicorns seemed to be doing would be strange if they were any other Seeming. She smirked as Sera threw a little shade, and shook her head at the silliness of it all.

    Then she got into a brief tug-of-war as her fruit grappled at her nose. Sonnie freed herself quickly, but held the alien vegetable at arm's length and looked at it suspiciously. "Rude," she huffed, and then aggressively bit the offending tentacle off and ate it with smug satisfaction.

    Yes, Fairest were definitely the weird ones.

    So it was that Cei took a slight step back- not quite enough to appear cowering, but enough to show the effects of the Monarch’s words... Was there a slight shudder as well, or was it a stray breeze?
    "That would be something to see indeed, were I mortal and… Entirely… defenseless from such acts.... Still, I cannot deny your claim to fear... Monarch" Was it a trick of the light, or did all the eyes on Cei's armor seem to somehow turn to look away from Rhodes? And though the Incubus wasn't such to believe himself stronger than the Monarch in terms of fairie might, there was some comfort to be gleaned from his stature, and in knowing that Cei still held some strengths the Monarch didn't... It was the easiest thing to cling to then, to avoid faltering entirely.

    "And I will not deny your position therein- I am glad, and perhaps humbled to see someone willing to express their title so readily. I look forward to the challenges within and in assisting this Freehold- and to seeing what else you possess." Not said with malice. Cei scanned the room to see who else, if anyone, might wish to converse. He noted the 'darling,' and was curious at their connection- but wouldn't prod further, having learned a bit from this. Not the best way to learn how some of this Freehold worked- and a failed attempt at a meal.

    No physical harm.... Creepy Autumns. Things to watch out for, in the future.

    Mein: Rhodes has pale whitish skin, elfin ears and deep, overly large emerald eyes. Thin black veins broach the surface of his skin like the roots of a tree emerging from the ground. Dark, broad leaves sprout from his wrists, ankles and temples, spreading around the back of his head. Deep red flowers bloom at the temples and wrists.
    Mantle

    Mantle: A breath of icy wind, the kind that penetrates and sends a chill down the spine. Ash leaves in red, yellow and gold spin into existance around him, caught on the breeze. As the wind blows, unnerving whispers can be heard, always coming from a direction just out of one's field of vision.

    The mirthless smile becomes more of a smirk. That's better.

    "Work with us, and all will be well. Against us and some of us are much older than we appear. Enjoy your evening."
    It was done, and everything was as it should be. He was done. Impudent wretches cowed and position assured.

    Spring Queen on arm, Rhodes heads over the the table of food and drink. "Might I recommend this, Sera? It's a rather interesting cordial made from goblin fruit." Of course there were non-alcoholic options prepared.

    The fight between monkey and fruit is a tale old as time. "Who do you think will win? The fruit seems to be putting up on hell of a fight..." he asks Seraphina, amused.
    Flowering Fairest, Mantle: An ever-changing, spine-chilling icy wind, creating spinning autumn leaves and haunting whispers.

    Treasured Nix

    She loved watching Rhodes step into his role as Monarch. He seemed made for it.

    The Nix had nothing to add, most of what she said had been acknowledged anyways. Maybe the guy was overwhelmed by the Coronation, or maybe not. She didn’t know.

    Eyeing the drink, she accepts it. Bringing it to her nose, she smells it, and while she couldn’t identify the smells, it was sweet and wonderful. Taking a sip, again, she couldn’t identify what the taste was exactly, but it was delicious, just the right amount of sweet. Familiar, but different. “This is wonderful! Autumn always seems know where to find the most delicious fruits. Do you guys have a secret grove?” she asks with her eyes playfully narrowed.

    Taking another sip, “But seriously, this is a spectacular Coronation! And the Hollow? Breathtaking.” She did like the Hollow.

    Looking over to Sonnie, she laughs, “I’d put my money on Sonnie. Never come between that girl and her food.” A solemn nod.

    Eyes find the newer Autumn again, “Seems he either liked to be alone, or he’s not enjoying himself.” Concern in her voice.

    "Oh, yeah, Titania and I did some dream adventuring! It was really fun!" she smiled and nodded to Rhodes, responding to his earlier comment.

    While she was distracted with the conversation, the tentacled goblin fruit had wrapped his writhing appendages around both of Sonnie's wrists, locking them together like handcuffs. With a growl, the simian Beast was trying to shake herself free of the hostile edible, waving her arms up and down rapidly. The fruit hung on with tenacity.

    "Who picked this thing? And why did I decide to try it?" Sonnie counter-attacked by sinking her monkey fangs into the flesh of the fruit. The plant pod responded by slapping her in the face with it's remaining free tentacles.

    Truly an epic struggle for the ages.

    Mien

    The elegant and armonious movement of the celestial spheres is reflected upon her hair, galaxies dance across the pitch black background in clockwork-like precision, delicate specks of moondust blaze down in her wake, disappearing just as they touch the floor. Her eyes, like star sapphires, shine in tandem with the globes of light that dance around her, floating like planets swept around a Sun.

    Mantle

    A field of roses under the glistening pale moon of a star sprangled spring night. Occasionally, midnight blue roses emerge from her hair, their petals swept by a gentle breeze, just to fade into the bed of sparkling diamond moondust left in her trail by her mien, vanishing without trace soon thereafter.

    The newcomer was entirely inappropriate, and the Fairest didn't make a point of concealing her disappointment at the upstart. "Hmph", but like a kid in a candy store, her attention was soon recaptured by the flow of conversation.
    "Hmm, yes. We went dreamriding a bit. It was fun and shed some light on Lady Sonja's troubled mind", she says, wrinkling her nose at the shameful rerun of beast vs food.
