(Idk. Maybe the next day? And haha no, it's actually a reference to "Icarus" by Bastille lol, though I can see why you might think it's a Hamilton reference. I…don't really need to talk, if you're worried I'm not doing well? I'm fine, I just fell in love with the song and wanted to use it. But thank you anyways)

@Vuclan-is-tired

(Oh! Of course love! And yeah, let's skip to the next day. Although I have an idea if you want to hear it. It would happen a little before or after the ball depending on timing.)

@Vuclan-is-tired

(So, basically what I was thinking is that Aki attempts to bring Renee I can't do the accents for the life of me since my computer hates me but in order to do that, he lost most of his memories, and had half of his heart taken. Now he has bonds with the devil that will come and haunt him later on in the rp. Does that sound good?)

@Vuclan-is-tired

(Yeah, he does. Unless you don't want him to. I figured it was a way Aki could try and help Lucien feel better. Plus necromancy is forbidden, so Aki would get himself in some deep shit.)

@ElderGod-Icefire

(Alright!)

The day of the ball had dawned sunny and beautiful, though Lucien felt far from it. It was only an hour until the ball now, and he felt sick. He would have to pick women that would be good queens tonight, and then make further narrowing down later. But he didn't want a queen. He wanted…he wanted a king. He wanted…Aki. He had already changed into a fresh suit, his hair brushed neatly.

Aki wasn't sure how he felt about the ball. He was excited to mingle with people, but at the same time… This ball was for Lucien to choose a bride. Which meant that this would be the last day Aki got to be affectionate with Lucien. He ruffled his pure white hair, his ears twitching a little. He tucked his tail away before glancing at himself in the mirror. He was wearing a long robe, the one his master wore when he was master magician. He looked over himself. Somehow wearing Zephyr's old robe made him feel better, like his old master was close to him.

@ElderGod-Icefire

Lucien looked over at Aki, tugging on the sleeves of his shirt. I can't do this. He closed his eyes for a moment before walking over to the other male and tucking his arms around Aki from behind. He leaned his chin on Aki's shoulder. "I don't want to do this." he said softly. He meant the ball, not hugging the man that he…that he loved.

@Vuclan-is-tired

Aki shut his eyes, taking a deep breath. He needed to relax. He needed to calm himself down. He instantly leaned into Lucien, a small sigh leaving his lips. "Neither do I…" He whispers, looking up at the other. He turns around to face him and kiss his lips gently. He looked up at the other, a tear slipping down his cheek.

@ElderGod-Icefire

Lucien gently wiped the tear away, his own eyes heavy and reluctant. He knew better than to cry, though. "You'll still…no matter what happens tonight, we can still…" he didn't know how to say what he meant. He hugged Aki close, closing his eyes. "You'll stay with me still, right?" he asked softly. "Please?"

@Vuclan-is-tired

Aki leaned into his hand, holding it as he tried to gather himself. He hugged Lucien tightly before nodding. "Of course I'll stay, as long as you'll have me." He whispers as he stayed close to the other. "I promise." He whispers.

@ElderGod-Icefire

Lucien nodded a little bit, holding Aki close. "Okay." he said softly. "Thank you." he pressed a kiss to the top of Aki's head, running a hand through the other man's hair. He didn't want to stop this. Didn't want to go down to the ball and pretend that everything was fine, he could dance with and marry a woman.

@Vuclan-is-tired

Aki leaned into him, a soft, shuddering sigh leaving his lips. "Of course." He whispers, his voice barely audible. He didn't want to leave Lucien's side, he didn't want to have to watch him marry a woman, and leave him alone again. God he just wanted to stay here forever.

@ElderGod-Icefire

He didn't want to spend the rest of his life sharing a bed with a woman he didn't love. It wouldn't be fair to either of them. This man in his arms was the only person he wanted to share his bed with right now, and maybe forever. He pressed his mouth to the top of Aki's head, holding him close.

@Vuclan-is-tired

Aki trembled, clinging to Lucien. He didn't want to be alone again. Never again. Lucien was all he needed and he would lose Lucien forever. A pained sigh leaves his lips as he looks up at Lucien. "Kiss me… Properly please…" He begged, holding onto Lucien for dear life.

@ElderGod-Icefire

Lucien nodded. He leaned down to press his mouth to Aki's, one of his hands moving to cup the back of the smaller male's head. The kiss was gentle and sweet and, at least for Lucien, heartbreaking. He didn't know how much longer he could have this. Could have Aki with him and near him and in his bed. His arms tightened around Aki.
