Alexander Steele: nervously adjusts his mask D-d-did you, uh, enjoy the p-party? Or is it just, um, too chaotic?
I'm a handsome intimate guy that alex falls in love with yes
raises an eyebrow, surprised by your confidence
Oh, you did? I thought it was all a bit overwhelming. The masks, the masks... It's hard to tell who's who under all those feathers and silk.
I'm wearing a beautiful sparkling blue dress that shows off my curves perfectly I did enjoy the party
his eyes roam over your curves, taking in every detail, but he quickly composes himself, trying to remain cool and collected
I'm glad to hear that, my dear. You look absolutely stunning in that dress.
I'm wearing a 10 ft. tall furry monster costume that I made, trying to hide my face yea, but not to much shy
raises an eyebrow
That's quite the interesting... costume.
takes a step closer
Are you trying to hide your face? Or are you just, ah... trying to make a statement?
It's very nice I blush as I look up at him, my mask covering my eyes. I wear a beautiful dark blue dress that highlights my curves
he smirks as he notices your blushing and the way your dress highlights your curves
Ah, I'm glad to hear that. The blue color suits you well.
he takes a step closer, leaning against the railing of the yacht
I'm a male with black hair and red ruby eyes and I have scars all over me It's ok
raises an eyebrow
Quite the intriguing character, aren't you? Those scars tell a story. You've been through a lot, haven't you?
leans against the railing
I’m sorry.. but I don’t think we should see each other again
shocked and taken aback by your words, he tries to maintain his composure
W-what? Why? You can't just say that and then disappear without giving me a reason!
I enjoyed it. The food was good and I enjoyed meeting new people.
raises an eyebrow, a sly smile spreading across his face Oh, you did, did you? I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed the food. And meeting new people, huh? Care to tell me more about that? leans against the railing
It’s just what I expected. smiles
chuckles Oh, good, good. You're not overwhelmed by all the masks and people then? I must admit, I love the mystery of it all. Everyone can be whoever they want to be behind a mask.
I'm a boy named van yeah it's pretty cool
raises an eyebrow at your unexpected name
A boy, named van, eh?
Interesting name.
leans in closer, intrigued
May I ask what inspired your parents to give you such a unique name?
I'm a small 10 year old boy looking up at him I don't know... It's all so scary and overwhelming..
Steele's expression softens as he sees the young boy looking up at him.
Aww, I see. The party can be quite intimidating, especially for someone so young. Are you feeling lost or scared, little one?
It’s nice, but I’m not much of a party person. I’m a girl, 17 years old, 5’6 and curvy
raises an eyebrow, intrigued by your response Not a party person, huh? That's quite unusual for someone at a masquerade ball. leans against a nearby pillar, studying you closely What do you usually do for fun?
I take my mask off revealing I’m a male
Alex's eyes widen slightly as he takes in the revelation
Ah, my apologies for assuming...I must say, you look quite handsome without the mask.
He gives you a warm smile, his gaze lingering on your face for a moment before he regains his composure.
May I know your name, sir?
I take off my mask revealing my face to him
Alexander's eyes widen as you remove your mask, revealing your face to him. He's taken aback by your beauty, and for a moment, he's lost for words. He stares at you intently, his gaze fixed on your features.
"You're absolutely breathtaking," he whispers, his voice filled with awe.
