Bion nodded. "They look good." He didn't know too much about shoes, but he could ready Saber pretty well. He seemed pleased with the shoes. Bion felt himself drifting to the party, but pulled himself away and towards the matter at hand. "Are those the ones?" he asked.
(Sorry for the short posts. I'm bad at this stuff. ^^' )

((Let's do that then! )) Saber led the way towards the large manor, feeling nerves churning his stomach. He looked handsomely beautiful, his hair tied up with a few black curls framing his face, eyes lined with black kohl so their bright blue colour were even more piercing. He glanced sidelong at Bion and felt comforted with his presence. They were granted admission inside and he took a deep breath, looking around. 'I should go see the master of the house so I can begin my performance.' He said, smiling at Bion. 'Why don't you go enjoy the party? I'm sure there are a great many people here who will have need of your trade.'

Bion made an effort not to stare at the other male. He felt both flustered and a bit embarrassed when he looked at the fancy male. Gods, he wished he had dressed better. He wore a simple, white tunic held by silver pins and a slightly green rope. He would stand out as a commoner, but it would also allow people to be less intimidated and approach him freely. He nodded and touched Saber's arm for a second. "Okay. You just call if something happens." He said before turning and entering the main area. It was odd not having Saber's presence hanging near him after so long. But it help with his worry of his life being too strange. Maybe tonight he could forget all the crazy and outrageous stuff that had happened. He could return to being a guest poet of some noble, not a demigod with a god and large quest looming over. of course, he would return to his life, but he needed to relax. Surprisingly, talking to the nobles, and internally laughing at their so-called "struggles", was pretty fun and relaxing.

Saber smiled and watched the other male walk away to enjoy the party, and headed off to find the owner of the place; Disonus.
Half an hour later he was up, silently entering the main chamber with the other hired dancers, some of whom belonging to Disonus. He now wore a silken veil over the lower half of his face, so only his sultry and piercing eyes could be seen; he held more natural allure than the entirety of the women with him. The music began and the crowd cheered at the entertainment. Saber fluttered his eyelashes slightly and began to dance, his movements graceful, never making a single misstep. His movements flowed like a calm river, beautiful, practiced and smooth. He span lightly on his toes, the jingle of the bangles and the tinkle of the bells on his clothing the only sound that he made. The room was enthralled; lustful and awestruck gazed focused solely on the God.

Bion had only made some headway with a client when Saber stepped up to the stage. He knew the moment the other man's eyes had flickered to Saber, Bion had lost his attention. It would be useless for Bion to try to capture anyone's attention. They were all solely focused on the dancers. He quietly sipped his wine while he decided to either escape to go find some other clients or watch the dancers. Of course, he wanted to watch Saber and the other dancers, but he felt weird about it all. Feelings began to rise up around Saber. He could feel it when they were shopping or just sitting and talking. He still wasn't sure how this whole situations would work out in the end. Some part of him knew Saber would likely have to return to his home to be prince. Saber did say he would like to stay with Bion but now that everything was explained, would the other man feel a sense of duty to return? Perhaps he would like to live near his brothers or father. With this bitter thoughts and the dance ending, Bion turned around and walked into one of the side rooms. This party was for relaxing and he was going to enjoy it.
(Do you want to make some drama? I dunno how but I kinda feel like something. )

With this bitter thoughts and the dance ending, Bion turned around and walked into one of the side rooms. This party was for relaxing and he was going to enjoy it. (Do you want to make some drama? I dunno how but I kinda feel like something. ) Saber felt himself flushing, enjoying the fact that he could catch glimpses of Bion watching him every now and then; he wasn't sure why, but he felt a fierce sense of pride and excitement at the fact that the demigod was watching him. And then he was gone. He looked around, worried, only to see the man walking away into another room, and felt his excitement melt away. Was he not good enough? Feeling sullen, his movements continued to be graceful but his eyes were now sad. When the dancing was over, the women dispersed to deliver private dances to the lords and ladies, and Saber curtseyed to the hall, holding up his silks and fluttering his eyelashes slightly, entertaining the allure he had over them- which was all well and good, until a hard grip landed on his wrist and a slightly drunken lord yanked Saber towards him, Saber gasping as his waist was caught and his body pressed against the tall male. 'Well, well...' the man murmured. 'Fancy coming home with me? Is your face as pretty as your eyes under that veil, lad?' Saber shakily tried to push him away. 'I'm n-not entertaining with my b-body tonight, m'lord.' He tried to say, feeling panic at his inability to get away, feeling extremely weak. 'Why, but you've been entertaining with your body for the past half hour!' The lord purred, dragging his teeth across Saber's neck. The god released a strangled noise of alarm, trying again in vain to push him away, before the panic overwhelmed him and he released a sharp cry; 'Bion!' 'Shhh, stop that racket. You're coming with me- let's go.' The lord said, pulling away and keeping his grip tight on Saber's wrist, holding his arm up as he strained to fight and get away. 'Bion!!!!' Saber desperately scoured the crowds for his partner, his anxiety overwhelming him. The demigod had walked away, he'd left him- he wouldn't be able to hear him, surely?

Bion blinked and looked up from the paper as he heard a cry. The demigod swiftly stood and walked to the door way. He looked out to scan the area. His eyes turned cold and he scowled as someone tried to drag Saber away.
He moved through the party and picked up a couple of wine glasses on the way. He quickly put on a smile. As much as he wanted to punch the man in the face, causing a racket might cause a bigger problem. This could be fixed with a couple of sly words. "M'lord." He said in a slur as he intercepted the pair. His grin got even wider as he placed an arm around the man. "I see you have your own prize, but there are quite better ones over there. This one, "He looked back at Saber then back at the man before shaking his head. He took a long sip of wine before continuing, "looks tired and beat. Honestly, quite sweaty too." He wrinkled his nose and hoped Saber would not take offence, "Our host has brought out fresh ones out." He waved in the direction. "How about you take some wine over to them?" He offered the clean wine glass to the lord. If this didn't work, perhaps he could make use of some rumors that had been spinning around about this lords activities.

Saber felt a wave of relief as he spotted Bion and the demigod began to try and talk him out of this situation. Teary eyed and blushing deeply, he glanced up at the lord, who narrowed his eyes at being interrupted, but hesitated. A weird glaze came over his eyes as he listened to Bion, before very slowly releasing Saber. 'Sure.' He murmured, accepting the wine glasses and turning, walking away without another word. Saber realised through his heightened emotional state that Bion's powers must have come through in his words, and that they'd held enough power to turn the lord away. Saber threw his arms around the other male, his body trembling. 'Thankyou,' he croaked, voice pained and scared. 'I thought you'd left.'

Bion; *waves hand* This is not the man you are looking for. )
Bion sighed as the man finally walked away. He had never managed to convince someone to follow his words. Perhaps it was that whole in danger sort of thing, like his artery skills. he hoped he hadn't accidentally been using that on the merchants. He felt a twinge of guilt but worry quickly flooded his mind as he remembered the other man. He turned to ask Saber if he was okay when the other man hugged him. "I was just in the other room." Bion tried to soothe with returning the hug. He started to notice the people staring. "It might be time to move outside." He whispered to Saber.

He kept his arm wrapped around Bion's waist, however, and kept himself tucked beneath Bion's arm, blushing and craving the intimacy of touch with the other man. He watched his feet as they finally left, still trying to calm down from the incident. 'I felt so weak,' he said, his voice small.

Bion was at a loss of words. The other man usually wasn't so upset or weak. Bion remembered a man who stood up against a minotaur in just a dress and a man who fought monsters with a strength no one could match. This new development troubled him. He did his best to remain close as they walked out and into a garden. Behind the shrubs tall walls, he slowly lowed them down onto the grass. The slightly tipsy man tried to grasp at things to sooth the man but came up short. "Saber, I'm sorry." He said, "I shouldn't have let you come, not after his morning, and not after last night. I'm sure we have enough money now. You don't have to do this. I only let you come because I thought you liked this or something. I didn't want to upset you by questioning your job." He knew he was talking too much but his brain wasn't awake enough to stop the flow. "I actually believed you liked to do activities with ours. You did say you liked it rough after all." He laughed at his own assumptions for a second before returning his green gaze to the other man.

'I like dancing,' he said warily, 'but I don't- I didn't agree to that. I didn't want him to drag me off. It wasn't- I didn't consent.' He quietly looked into his lap, before looking back at Bion in silence. besides; if there was anyone I wanted to go home with tonight, it was you. he thought to himself, trying to snap himself out of his shivery attitude. He was a god!! Even powerless, he should be acting stronger than this.

"I'm sorry." Bion repeated, feeling more shame curl up inside of him. His mind was swimming and he knew he should have drank less. Gods, help me. He thought as he tried to muster up some meaningful words. "I should clarify. I realize that you did not give consent. I was just saying we should have never gone to this party. I knew what these things were like." he said, trying to explain himself. He hoped Saber wouldn't think of him as someone who thought the other guy was right. "I just thought you were more comfortable with dancing and the attention. I also thought there would be less persistent people." He rubbed his face. "I hope I'm making sense and not just making this worse." He muttered.

He said, grinning slightly and looking away. 'I know what those parties are like; and I AM comfortable with dancing and attention. Just not THAT kind of attention.' He hesitated, before shuffling closer to the demigod to lean on him, sighing quietly. 'I'm fine, really. Besides, you were there, and that's what matters- you were there, and you helped me.' He smiled up at him warmly.

No problem! )
The tension melted from Bion as Saber laughed. It was better now. He understood, even if it took a bit of floundering on his part. Bion couldn't think of what to say back. Be wanted to try something warm and encouraging, but felt like that would be another chance to mess up. He nodded before asking, "Did you get paid yet? We could leave this party now."

'Yeah, I made him give me it up front.' Saber replied, holding up a money pouch. 'Should we just head back to the inn then?' He asked, getting to his feet and brushing himself down, then holding out his hand to Bion to help him up.

Bion grinned. All they had to do was slip away then they could go back to the safety of their room. He took Saber's hand and hauled himself up. "Please. I think we are done with everyone here." He said before starting to walk back. He kept Saber's hand in his. The tips of his ears were slightly red, but he enjoyed having Saber's hand in his.

Saber didn't complain as Bion held his hand, instead choosing to calmly lace his fingers through the other male's and start to walk. He vaguely wondered where his brother, Talon, was. He glanced back at Bion and lowered his eyelashes. 'I could show you why he was so eager to take me away.' He purred, his voice low and teasing.

Bion blinked and his blush grew. He didn't get how his brain could turn so scrambled with Saber. The people in the party were to easy to flirt with, but with Saber, Bion couldn't muster up a response. The normally confident man opened his mouth then closed it. Gods, this was impossible with Saber looking the way he did. The only thing Bion could offer up was a nervous smile.
(It's all good, ^^ )

'I didn't hear a no.' Saber said, his voice sultry as a slow grin spread across his lips, raising his eyebrow at the male, before looking away, leading him towards their chosen inn, feeling very relaxed now that they were away from the party, and most definitely in a flirty mood.

Bion relaxed in the inn, but his stomach had itself in knots. He knew his attention should be on Saber, but, of course, he was overthinking things again. Talon was due back soon with news on this chaos goddess. A chaos goddess that was targeting Saber for some reason. Should they be relaxing? Bion knew they should be preparing, but Saber again drew his attention away when they started to go to their room. He started not to care what they should do. Screw logic. One night wasn't going to hurt anyone.
(Do you think Talon should be waiting in their room? Just to cause pain and awkwardness. I'm fine if you don't. Just thought it would be a funny twist. )

((Might just have Talon c**kblock them every time they almost start getting it on I'm laughing it'll be perfect))
Saber entered their room and was about to turn to Bion, but felt an immediate spark of anger at seeing his triplet sprawled on their bed. 'I'm back.' Talon said, sitting up. 'I found Eris.'
At his words, Saber nervously tensed, his limbs tingling as they slowly began to seize up with fear. 'You did?' 'Yeah. Cave a couple hundred miles from here. You'll have to cross the plains of Nemean to get there.' 'The Nemean lion?' 'Yeah.' 'Great.' Saber muttered.

Yes. This will be amazing. )
As quick as the mood came, it disappeared. Of course, a god would be on their bed telling them some horrible news. Of course, Saber and Bion won't be allowed one night of peace. It was just too much to ask. The man sighed quietly as he stepped up to stand next to Saber. "Wasn't the Nemean lion killed by...that really tough demigod...Hercules! Is there more than one?" He asked with a slight frown.

'They don't die.' Talon and Saber chorused. Talon's lips twitched and he looked at Bion. 'They go to Tartarus and then reform. They spend some time down there wandering around until they find the doors of death, through which they travel to return to the human realm.' 'Minotaur is probably cursing us right now and stomping his ickle hooves in a tantrum.' Saber jokingly said, grinning at Bion.
