Aliquam: The Tailor’s

“Are you sure this is alright? The whole ‘pick whichever one’ deal… Everything in here’s a lot more expensive than I thought it would be.”

"He must be rich if he's hosting parties all the time and offering us to pick whatever clothes we want," Amy responded to Aria's concern. Her eyes were half-slit, aloof almost, as she perused through the clothes the tailor's offered after having her measurements taken. Aria had chosen a lovely red dress for herself, one that outshined Amy's current silky crimson by a longshot. "Wow," she muttered to herself, before resuming her search. The cleric had always considered her dress to be relatively fancy, at least for how low-class she and Trixie were, but with what she'd seen both at Vandrell and here at Aliquam - how much fancier could dresses get?

Soon enough, Amy emerged donned in a green dress, silky with layered frills. She stood tall in front of a mirror, running a finger along her side. Like the silk she wore at Los Paraisos, this one matched her eyes - except was much more... gaudy. Still, she felt beautiful in it, and had no plans to return it after the party ended.

“Um, Amy? Could you help me pick a dress, please?” Amy turned to see Estelle cooing from afar, still unsure of what to wear but slightly bedazzled for the flair in Amy's dress choice. Amy smiled softly. Seeing as she never wore anything but dresses, she had a keen eye for them, although she typically preferred plain and casual. Usually Selan or Aria would be preferable choices, she'd think, but seeing as the latter was already assisting Xandra...

With Aria already claiming red with white hints, Amy had the perfect idea in mind for Estelle's color scheme. She only hoped Estelle would agree. After digging through dresses to match Estelle's measurements, she emerged with two. Both were white with red hints, opposite to Aria's. The first one had subtle red flames (instead of vines) along the torso, while the other had the same style of flames along the bottom hems (instead of white vines). "How about these, Estelle? White's not my color, although I think they would make your hair stand out quite a bit..."

Once Estelle had made her choice, Moira waltzed by soon enough in her own outfit, proud of what she had chosen. Amy clasped her hands together. "Nice choice, Moira. Looking to score some free drinks?"

Amy had taken the time during this dress up segment to lighten up, as she had been moderately quiet since their arrival at the Academy. However, her overall suspicions for what was to come next were as high as ever. Still, at least she would be keeping the fancy dress this time (she planned).


Xandra patted Trixie's shoulder and gave her a grin before moving on towards Aria. "It's almost like we're going undercover, a group of superheroes on a stakeout." She had no idea what kind of impact such a statement would make on little ol' Trixie.

The prankster was rearing to go for a dress even while Lily was trying to get measurements. Soon enough, she had vanished into her own little aisle for young teenagers her age and, surprisingly, her size. The next time she had reappeared, she was glomping Lute from the side and knocking him right over.

"Oooh! Oooh!" she called as she ran to the virtuoso, before both had crashed to the floor. "Marcus is right! You're pretty!! White suits are so prettyyyy!" When she realized she was on the floor, she quickly got off of him and dusted herself off. "Ooph, sorry Luke! But look at my dress! Look at it! I SAID LOOK AT IT, WHY AREN'T YOU LOOKING." She whirled around a bit before jumping on top of one of those chairs people sit on when trying on shoes. "It even has a cape!"

Then she leapt off it and buzzed to where Syed was at - where a particular accessories section was nearby. "Now to find me a mask!"
Callin next post~

EDIT: Sorry it's taking a while. My mama called ^^; but I'm still working on it so I haven't vanished or anything haha
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BUNS



Aliquam: Academy of the Arts - Theatrical Hall

"Hey! Hey, don't laugh at me!" Trixie quipped back at Syed. "I just saved Luke's life and I--whoa!" Sebastian reared back for a moment before letting go of Lucien's underwear. The summoner plopped to the floor, though he was too ashamed to stand himself up right away. When he did, he thanked her and called her a hero - just as Lute did moments before! Trixie had gotten off Sebastian's after Lucien had fallen, and with his gratitude she struck a pose - puffing out her chest and dusting off a shoulder. "It's nothing, really. A hero's gotta do what a hero's gotta do!"

She watched as Rose spoke with Dalia, though they were too far from any of them to understand anything they were saying to one another. Thankfully the chaos and calamity had died down by this point, as even Sebastian had resigned himself to silent glaring. At some point, Rose strutted away from Dalia towards the double doors where the rest of the guilders stood by. With her horse in tow, she excused herself - something about needing to search for and punish her dumb brother - and left the building with her horse. Trixie waved as she ran off. "Byeeee Pretty Lady!"

And then some guy with blue hair said he was throwing a party later! Yay! Trixie was super excited to go, but then Dylan's sudden snap at him killed her mood instantly. "Geez Doc," Trixie mumbled beside him. Though her face was turned away, her eyes lingered on his form. "I've never seen ya so scary before." Fortunately Amy pulled her away by the ear (similarly to how Rose pulled Angel's) before she could say much more. She didn't even have time to question who on Ddaear that freaky glasses kid was.

It wasn't long before the group was ushered into the theater. Trixie chose a seat between Amy and Lucien, and watched as the summoner plotted his revenge on Sebastian. He looked awfully evil. "Hey. Hey. No supervillainy stuff during the show." She bonked him with one hand, and tutted him with her other. "I got my eyes on you, Mister Dark Knight."
EDIT: Aaaaand posted! I'll be back in the morn. Have a good mornight, ever'body :D


Aliquam: Academy of the Arts - Courtyard (Dalia's Group)

"Now, I don't see any reason why your friends wouldn't agree to come. Free food, drinks, and entertainment. ..."

After what happened in Vandrell last time a rich stranger invited them over? Of course he wouldn't - but Amy kept her mouth shut. Maybe it's a favor for Dylan, to make up for whatever the hell had gone down between the two. Regardless of his motives, the way he carried himself with how eager and sporadic the invite was... Amy could not bring herself to trust him, and she would proceed to the party later with utmost caution.

Amy gave Moira the eye when she said 'they' were the weird-looking ones of the group. Though she assumed with the way Moira was gesturing that she was referring to herself and Syed, so the cleric made no comment on that. Once the berserker threw the building doors open, Amy walked right on in - only to have her hair and dress shoo to the side as a blur dashed straight passed her. Lucien crashed into Moira on the other side of the cleric. Well, that was fine and dandy, but then a horse started charging right at them as well! And... gave a wedgie to Lucien??

Amy's face contorted into one of utter disgust. But she wouldn't dare try to help her teammate. Because that's not at all what clerics do.



Angel wouldn't bother to help either. Instead he remained standing there by Marcus, watching Rose talk to Trixie with an almost motherly tone. He shook his head with a pleased smug on his face. "Didn't think that'd work out the way it had. Hey, how long are you guys planning on staying here? There's a ball being held by Mister Patron over here tonight - he's always trying to bring in as many people as he can. You know, bragging reasons. You should totally come though. Really interested in learning more about the whole guilder thing. And I'd love to stay and chat right now, but..." his eyes loomed back over to his sister, who had returned her attention to Lute. "I've got some unfinished business to take care of. Before my sis ruins it again."

A die rolled out from Angel's sleeve, which he then chucked into the air and caught it. With his sister still distracted, he lazily made his way back to the door. He gave Sebastian a pat on the head, rubbed his hair, bid the rest of the guilders a goodbye in some language unknown to them, and waltzed right out the door. "Keeeeva~ enjoy your tours for me. I'm done for the day," he called, hands behind his head.

On his way out, Angel noticed two soldiers seated nearby, munching away at their meals. Angel saluted to them with two fingers (his way of waving to people) before continuing down and out of sight into some other building.



Trixie released a loud sigh as Rose's tone of voice dropped to one much more hospitable. She rushed to help out the virtuoso - literally rush, as she did her best to sprint to and from picking up and replacing things that had gone out of place. Except she realized halfway through that the (not broken) instruments she worked with putting back into their boxes... had broken from the forcefulness of her trying to shove everything into the box. That tuba was going to break apart at any second. With a nervous laugh, she backed away from the box and looked to Lute. "Um, um, yeah, you can, um, take care of the rest from here. And I'm going to, um - oh! - make sure Lucy doesn't die. Yeah? Okay. Good plan, great plan."

She rushed straight passed Rose towards where the horse had ran to. Luckily for her most of the other students who had been walking about before their arrival had gotten far out of the way by this point, so there was no one for her to crash into. Once she reached Sebastian, she leapt onto his back (and landed on her stomach, versus in an upright seated position). Trixie then fumbled her hands around his neck.

"Mister Horsie, please drop him! You're gonna make his face all red and his head hurt and stuff if you keep holding him like this!" she wailed.

Amy shook her head and facepalmed from the side. "Trixie, what on Ddaear are you..."

"Shhh! Amy, shhh! I have a charisma skill of +10. I got dis. Ahem - please Mister Horsie, please!"
Wait how did you become non-magical magical boy
That's an oxymoron
Get a frikkin refund, man

EDIT: Post is up! It's meh today, and I've spent more time on it than I would've liked trying to come up with something good lol, but at least I got 'er done now haha.

This is the relationship between Angel and Sebastian:

HIT ME UP, BABY

Aliquam: Academy of the Arts - Courtyard (Dalia's Group)

Amy turned her head when Tobias extended an invite to his ball. Like Syed, she was outright dubious of his motivations. The last time nobles welcomed them - absolute strangers for all save one this time - into their arms, the results of that were less than enjoyable. She couldn't imagine what the ties between Dylan and Tobias were like, or what on earth explained the motivations behind Tobias' invite or Dylan's out of character slap. Regardless, Amy couldn't stand men like Tobias, much less trust them.

Estelle had already moved to Dylan to talk with him about what's more comfortable to him. Amy trusted both of them to know what they were doing, and she would go along with whatever their decision was - whether it's to avoid causing a scene with upfront suspicion, or to keep an eye over everyone while they were there. In the meantime Moira called the cleric, but it wasn't enough to shake her from her thoughts. Of course the idea of free alcohol enticed the berserker. It enticed the cleric too, to be fair. But...

Hooked under Moira's arm, Xandra reiterated the redhead's suggestion to find the others. Amy nodded at this. "Yes, let's." She kept her leery eyes on Tobias as she passed him by, towards the building Keeva's group had taken off to. Simon was equally despicable, but at least he was direct with his perverse intentions.


Aliquam: Academy of the Arts - Corridor

Angel cringed every time Rose called aloud his accented name. It hurt his pride more than she hurt him physically. The way she called it with such anger, the way she pronounced the glottal sound in between syllables... Angel rubbed his head upon dropping to the ground. "Geez Rose, you say it so nastily. Like it's a disease or something." With that still fresh on his mind, he basically ignored Rose's accusations about his gambling habits. Yeah they were true, but seeing as she already moved on, he couldn't give any less shits about that.

While Marcus helped pull the man up, Angel chuckled aloud at Keeva's side remark about losing her groupies. "No worries, darling. I'll just tell her everyone was KIA by Miss Student Council. She'd understand." He winked at the wind mage once he was back on his feet - "Thanks for that, by the way." - and proceeded to dust off his suited attire. Only after he was back on his feet did he look to where his sister marched off to, and responded to Marcus' question. "Uhh... You guys said you were guilders, right? They should be fine. Maybe."

When Angel looked back to Marcus to shrug, he immediately caught Aria in his peripherals and let out a low whistle. "Damn. Didn't think so many fine women would be into the guilder thing. That's pretty neat." Angel reached out his gloved hand to her, palm open and friendly. "Dollie probably said this before, but the name's Angel. Hope you guys have been enjoying your stay here." He looked back to Marcus again. "That goes for you too, buddy--hey, where's the pipsqueak going?"



"Uhmmm ma'am?"

Trixie had managed to maneuver her way all the way towards the sound room. She stopped upon reaching Sebastian and wrapped her arms around one of his front legs, half-relying on him as a shield, and half-because she took a liking to him too. Even though her braided hair was uneven again due to all of the slobber on one side of her face. Thankfully she hadn't noticed.

"Hiii. We're Dylan's bestest best friends." She twirled one foot behind the other, hoping her forced cutesiness would appease Rose's anger. "Could you stop yelling like that, please? It's really scary and... and unladylike and... pretty ladies should not be acting all scary like this. Cuz like... they didn't mean it. So... please stop... please?" She smiled nervously.
Hullo, I haven't caught up on the ICs yet but it seems on the ooc at least, things have picked up a notch? :D

I'm gonna work out for a bit then come back and write a post. I should be back in about an hour? I'll post after Pacman - I hope my disappearance last night didn't hold anyone up /o/

EDIT: Post is up, sorry it took so long! Dunno if anyone ever mentioned to Angel yet that they were all guilders, but I'm sure someone probably told him while they were summarized walking to/from the statue room. If my post bugs anyone, I'm more than happy to change it. XD
