The Court of Aurora (Afina and Moore)

[Anastasia]

I'm going to call for a Charisma check here as part of the way of determining this.

[Nephrite]

[22:36] <Nephrite> roll 1d20+11 pure charisma
[22:36] <Kobot> Nephrite rolled 1d20+11 pure charisma --> [ 1d20=3 ]{14}

[Anastasia]

The entire conversation stops as Moore poses his question. "Thank you, but no," she smiles. "I am currently being courted by another - it's quite recent - and dancing with another would reflect poorly on that."

The redhead giggles, "Oh, you're adorable in that outfit," she gushes, "Can you dance when you're flying? I'd dance with you?"

The green haired nymph gasps at that, but doesn't comment. The brown haired one chuckles and smiles.

[Ebiris]

"There were others that held more personal power or commanded larger followings, but they're gone and Ilsenine yet remains. That speaks to her Majesty's mettle if nothing else," Afina says, taking a small sip from her drink.

[Nephrite]

Moore smiles and bows gracefully to Skye. "Of course, no offense meant to you or to your suitor, Lady." He turns his attention to the red-haired one. "I'll certainly give it a shot. I think I can manage." Moore says with a smile.

[Anastasia]

Afina finds its a fairly mellow drink as it goes. No danger of a repeat of the Court of Stars, you think.

"Oh yes, she's a survivor," Crystal murmurs, then frowns. She drinks and then says, "A bad turn of phrase. She's endured so much and still stands strong. She's the Queen our court needs, one who has been tested and proven strong."

Virylle's good cheer dims, "Yes, I heard rumors of her being a devil hostage. Are those true?"

[Anastasia]

The red head smiles and goes with Moore to the side, where several couples are dancing.

Quick question, any relevant skills here?

[Nephrite]

I can do anything relevant.

[Ebiris]

"Aside from myself, all of the Lifasan pixies here have been captured by devils at some point," Afina answers. "Though the indignities her Majesty suffered go beyond the pale, and would have doomed the Crusade were it not for the weapon carried by the human Sylvie."

[Anastasia]

I'm looking for something related to dancing, like perform: dance or similar. If you have that, roll it.

[Anastasia]

"It's...unpleasant," Crystal murmurs, finishing her glass and fluttering off to get another. "Do either of you want a refill?"

"Please," the blonde says, then, "I heard...rumors. Terrible things."

[Nephrite]

Due to Bardic Knack I can literally do anything called for, so I'll use that for Dancing.

[12:34] <Nephrite> roll 1d20+23 Perform: Dance
[12:34] <Kobot> Nephrite rolled 1d20+23 Perform: Dance --> [ 1d20=11 ]{34}

EDIT: It's apparently rounded up, so that should be 35 if it makes some significant difference.

[Ebiris]

"Not for me," Afina says, still having a fair amount left in her glass. "It's no secret," she then tells Virylle. "Her Majesty deserves better than to be whispered about or pitied. She's overcome Hell's depredations and we will grant her her redress."

[Anastasia]

As you talk, you can see Moore on the dance floor. He's joined by a red headed nymph, the two starting a slow dance. Immediately Moore's easy technique and grace get attention, skillfully taking command of the dance floor.

"Yes, but one hardly goes and asks about something like that to her face." The blonde looks at the dancing duo, "Well, well. That pixie knows how to dance."

[Nephrite]

"I do apologize for pulling you away from Lady Skye's review of the clothes." Moore says with a smile to his dance partner. "I did not catch your name, however, so you have me at a bit of a disadvantage."

He continues to do elegant yet easy moves so as to try and not put off an air of superiority. He wants to make sure everyone continues to have a good time!
