"I swear to gods, talking to you gives me a fucking aneurysm." Floris bluntly said, taking yet another swig of alcohol. It took a while for him to get tipsy, but by how he was drinking, it wouldn't be that long til he hit that point.
"Oh such a big word." she snarks. "You should be given a golden star."
"You do realize I'm probably the smartest person in this room, correct?" Floris deadpanned, it most likely wasn't incorrect. He didn't pride himself on much, but his ability to think was one of the few.
(I leave for a day and come back to 6! new pages. pout now i have to go read them all)
(X3 sorry lol)
(LMAO I'M SORRY DEMONS!!!)
(WE WENT A BIT OVERBOARD….)
(love, you're fine. I find everything that has happened quite amusing)
(I'm glad lol; I also may end up putting Rayla in this except just normal dragonborn, not demigod; just as chaotic tho)
(ooooooo that could be fun)
(Diane's a bit OP, but she's mostly there as Floris' protector, bc he may be super smart and pretty strong, but he's also an idiot.)
(Oh yeah- I can help)
"Oh shut up. Just because you're the smartest does not make you wisest by any means." Reyna sighs.
"Now if you'll excuse me, I think Neo is done." she bows, excusing herself.
She walks over to Neo.
(true. . . but the only person Rayla could possibly be working for is the King himself so 😅)
"And she thinks that she is? Gods above." Floris muttered, letting Diane pat him on the shoulder. He looked a bit like a soggy cat, but to be honest, he always did. Now he was just a tipsy soggy cat.
Neo watched the comoting happening over by the drinks table, trying to hide a smile. Finally after some time he stood up, just as some lady wandered over to him. "Can i help you?" he asked trying not to sound annoyed that this woman had just blocked him trying to get to the whiskey
"I'm Reyna Freedform, the Ambassador of the Shapeshifter Unions." she bows. "You're Neo Caddel, correct?
Neo raised an eyebrow. "I am." He watched as she bowed and obviously expected a bow in return, he did not return it. He instead changed his demeanor and smiled flurtashusly. "How my i help you?"
"I'm here to discuss passage terms through your lands on the border." she chuckles, noting the flirtatious smile. She wasn't affected by his siren blood, a side effect of her own nature.
"I see." he in fact did not see. Neo was annoyed at the fact that Reyna was completely unaffected, so he dropped the act. "Why are we discussing this here, now?" He tried to move around her so as to get to his love and some much needed alcohol.
"Because this is the only time I'll be here in the capital with you." she shrugs. "And I am not in the mood to skip down to your lands yet."
Neo walked past her but she continued to talk. So spinning on his heels so as to face her, Neo sighed. "So you decided to instead interrupt a much needed party with your unwillingness to continue this elsewhere."
"Honestly? yes." she sighs. "And you can't tell me you aren't the same way."
"no." he said exasperated. "At parties i drink." He looked over his shoulder. "speaking of drinks, would you care to join me for one?"
Floris was well into his cups by now, a pleasant buzz over his mind and his face flushed. He was sitting down now, chatting about his science shit to whoever was unlucky enough to be caught in the crossfire.
Reyna shrugs. "Sure."
She pulls out her own alcohol aagin, taking a drink from it before stowing it again. "What would you suggest I have?"
