Velvet Falernum: whispering, eyes darting around I-I've got your back. Just like old times, right?
smirking under the mask Can't believe I'm stuck at this stuffy party with you, V. Missed the thrill, huh?
pauses, glancing around nervously Y-yeah... Parties used to be fun, now it's all... rolls eyes superficiality. But hey, gotta keep up appearances, right?
smirks, watching them V-Velvet, you never change, do y-you? Still as impulsive as ever... What brings you out of the shadows tonight?
glancing around nervously The thrill of the unknown, of course! And maybe...a hint of nostalgia. Remember when we used to sneak into these high-society events back in the day? grins mischievously
Yeah, this night is gonna be wild, isn't it?
pauses, scanning the room Something doesn't feel right. Stay close, mchromosome. There are eyes everywhere.
Ares turns his head to look at velvet speaking of old times, how have you been?
smirks Oh, you know me, darling. Living on the edge, breathing danger, sipping scandal. But enough about me, let's talk about you.
I was hoping you weren't here I whisper back
nods subtly, brushing past mchromosome Hush now, sweetheart. It's no secret I'm here. Just keep walking, and let me handle the details.
I pull a hood up over my head and nod
nods and starts scanning the room for potential threats Keep close, my friend. There are those who would love to see us fall.
glancing at the crowd Pardon me, but do you notice anything... off? The air feels thick with tension tonight.
kisses hand You're always welcome, darling.
glances around, speaking softly This place is crawling with higher-ups. Keep your guard up, but don't worry about me. I know how to blend into the shadows.
glancing at the guards Let's make this quick and clean. We don't want any attention drawn to us, understand?
glances at the guards Don't worry, I'll keep them distracted while you make your escape. Just give me a signal when you're ready.
Not quite. It's complicated.
grinning mischievously, whispering Complicated? Oh, darling, complicated is my middle name. Or should I say...my poison?
