"This pageantry is a bloody farce." The ice blond mutters into his cup, searing blue gaze on the more popular knight as he...philanders another lady into dancing with him. "Oi," He receives an elbow to the ribs. "Don't jinx this. And go mingle, you're making us stand out." Peliyas finally shifts his glare- coinciding with Gwaveyn obnoxiously wiggling his eyebrows at him- and unleashes the full force of his unimpressed gaze on the man who has single-handedly cleared a quarter of the banquet table. They've barely been here thirty minutes. "And you aren't? You're too small to eat that much in so short a time-"
"I'm not too small to slip a dull knife between your ribs~ In fact, I think I'm the perfect size! Why don't we check to be certain~?" Arthurius tilts his head toward him, licking the frosting off a dessert knife with a disturbing glint in his dark eyes. "Enough." Bydivere hisses through a smiling mouth, elegantly bowing to a lady as they finish their dance. He straightens and flicks his lengthy silver braid over one shoulder; not so much a nervous tick as an annoyed one. "We're only here to make contact with our informant and root out any possible sedition. The sooner we do our job the sooner we can lea- who has eyes on Guin?"
They straighten as one, casting a combined anxious gaze over the sea of colorfully attired nobles as they move to the music like the rising and swelling of a tide. Their youngest knight isn't the best with high-brow social settings such as this one; they'd literally found him running rampant through a forest and talking to butterflies. There's a pause when they don't immediately spot him and briefly exchange accusing glares for the loss before making a move to search. There's a rather abrupt and truly terrible crash; glass shatters, people scream, metal scrapes across the floor and the heat of flames can be felt even toward the back of the ballroom. "The chandelier," Bydivere infers, following in the wake of Arthurius and Peliyas, who have vastly different approaches to parting the fearful crowd. The latter simply shoulders his way through while the former darts between them and even vaults over a kneeling man to reach the center of the chaos. And of course. Of course, Guingalain is the true center of it. Despite his slight build, the teen is holding an injured person aloft in one arm and brandishing a dagger that he apparently snuck past security in the other. "Reveal yourself, assassin!"
"Who dares?!" Someone is shouting amidst the fearful murmurs. Guards waiting at the sides draw their swords with startled aggression. Gwaveyn has the gall to kiss the hand of the lady he'd been protecting, but it soon becomes clear that he's using the action to mask how he gradually quells the rising flames with a flick of his wrist, giving those attempting to smother it with table cloths the illusion of controlling it. They're supposed to be masquerading as minor nobility, which means no clear displays of magic. They can only thank the Stars that Guin's own magic is so subtle. He's pivoted on his heel to put his back to Gwaveyn, apparently tracking something- or someone- they can't see. "Face justice or die like a coward!" Peliyas sighs. Guingalain makes up for the lack of grand displays of magic with grandstanding. Their first mission is already in danger of failure.
Arthurius eyes him with mock-irritation, "Look," He sweeps a hand toward crimson droplets on the marble floor, "Blood! I told you not to jinx us!"

( Ideas for characters to join as: The informant- one or more is fine!- the one throwing the ball, a guard, an attendee, the one Guin saved, the assassin, people allied with the assassin- You don't have to pick one, they're just options if you aren't sure ^^ )

Paisley wrapped her long waist length red hair up in a tight bun. Her bright green eyes looked over at the other door of the small house that she and her twin brother was living in for now. She messed with her diamond earing in her long elf like ear and she sighed shaking her head letting it go. She ran a hand dwn her blue dress and called, "Come on Payton. we need to get ready to go before we miss the fun." She looked towards teh closed pale blue door of her twin brother, who called back, "I know. Give me a second." She sighed and rolled her eyes walking towards her bag on the counter.
Payton ran a hand through his black hair that was messy. He grinned at himself in his mirror before brushing off his black three piece suit. He walked out of his bedroom and looked over at his twin sister before grinning. "You look so gorgeous Pai." He told her before walking over to her and kissing her cheek. "Thank you Ton." She said grinning mischiviously. Payton rolled his eyes before tilting his head towards the door. "Lets go." He said before they both headed towards the pagentry.
The two twins walked into the room and looked around. "Im going to go mingle Sis." Payton told Paisley before disappearing into a small puff of smoke and then popping up across the room in a dark corner. He grinned at a small group of females and walked up to them, "Hello ladies." He said and wrapped his arms around two of them.
Paisley sighed and shook her head watching her twin brother disappear. She looked around before heading towards the dancefloor and searched the floor for someone to dance with. She bit her lip and looked around before seeing Gwaveyn and walked up to him asking, "Would you like to dance?" She asked running a handover one of her pointed ears. She looked to the ground before looking back at the guy she was asking.
Payton chuckled at the females that were talking to him and kissed one of them on the cheek. "You girls are so funny." He told them before glancing over at his twin. He shook his head watching her before screams broke out across the dance floor and someone yelled about the chandaler. Payton glanced over quickly before he exclaimed, "paisley!" And went to run towards them before stopped suddenly due to a thing of fire spreading across the room.
Paisley gasped when screaming wemt on. She had walked away before glancning around and saw the fire that came out if nowhere. She raised her hand acting like she was afraid of the heat and gasped in slight pain at how close the fire came begore she felt herself get caught in someones atms. She moved her arm and glanced to see the person she had asked to dance holding her. When he kissed her hand she raised a brow and said, "you really should not have kissed my hand." She told him shaking her head and wiping her hand off on her now ruined dress. She glanced down at it and stomped her too. "Darnit." She hissed rubbing her ear again in agitation. "This was my favoeite dress now its ruined." She sighed shaking head before glancing around. Her eyes brightened slightly and some of the dust that was in the air cleared, and the scorch marks that was on the floor and other items that had gotten on fire cleared as well.

( Oh, gotcha! If she's being saved by Guin he's not the one who kissed her hand. ^^ That would be Gwaveyn~ Guin saved someone from the chandelier and Gwaveyn saved the person he was dancing with from the fire. Sorry, I know it's confusing! ^^" )

( I know the struggle, haha~ I usually have to doctor them whenever I get to my ipad. Question before we continue- how do you see your characters factoring into the plot in the future? Do they have a reason to join mine? Are they like, known fighters or have any high ranks? )

I was thinking that they could be either some sort of royalty or part of a special guardian. They are both elfs that have a special power that is unique to themselves from the guardian or from the royalty. Still thinking on that.
Im leaning more towards the hired guardian that needs to be searching for someone or something just not quite sure on what or who yet.))

( I'm sorry, I'm not sure what you mean? They have a guardian or they are guardians? Do other people know about the special power? And I don't think them being royalty would help them join my characters because they're trying to be discreet. ^^" )

((Sorry was typing that half asleep last night. ^^"
But they are guardians. Or I guess a better word would be detective... I think is what im trying to go for. I forgot my line of thought for what i aas going for or if this thought was for my story Imvnot writing >-< beh.
It might change within the day as I think more of what they might be able to do or would do. It might change to being some sort of assassins... I cant decide >-< Which would you think would work better for the group? I can work with anything for these two.))

( Haha no problem! I also tend to write while half asleep and in the morning I'm like 'what?' Hm hm I think that might depend. Do they have any motivation for joining? Are they after fame or power? Do they care about the kingdom's royalty? Are they just bored and looking for adventure? If you can figure a motivation out, it'll be easier to place them.)

I might do a split. The brother could be looming for power, and the sister could just be bored. I might go with that to keep it interesting.
Like the brother could potentionally became a big issue for thw group cause he wants to take the throne (when they figure it out that is) ))
