Kasida pursed her lips as she was watching the prisoners being counted. Her eyes narrowed a little bit while she smiled some more. "Come on then." she said as she was running a hand through her hair. "Come on." she hummed to herself while she looked out the entrance way. "Let's take them through the back." she added while starting to walk out the ship while her wings were flexed out.

Kasida strutted out while she threw her head back with a bit of a smirk. "Now then." she clapped her hands while starting to walk them out with a bit of a smirk. "Time for us to go." she smirked to them while starting to walk towards the back entrance. She easily knocked while letting the one guard swipe on her badge she had so they could be let in. "Bring them in." she called over her shoulder while starting to walk on inside. Inside was a bright pink humanoid female. While she was bald, she made up for it by dressing up in shimmering fabrics that made her seem radiant. Tattoo markings on her skin glowed bright as she looked to see Kasida and Collis come in with their prisoners. "Collis! Kasida! Darlings!" she chirped happily as she sauntered toward the bounty hunters with a grin. "Oh, you clean up so well!" "It's been a while..." Kasida managed to say as the pink woman jumped up childishly to kiss their cheeks in her native greeting.

Kasida smirked a little, "Yeah, how have you been? What have you been up to Mivienne?" she tilted her head to the side at the shorter woman while her eyes narrowed playfully. Mivienne laughed while her purple lips curled up with her smile, "Oh, you know, alien trafficking is all in a days work, plus you've been missing out on the parties I've been throwing... Where's...?" she raised her eyebrow at the absence of Harlan. Kasida gave her a stony look, which made the female go quiet, then she waved her pink hands dismissively. "Alright, go have some fun, food is being guarded so assassins don't poison things...it's only happened once this month." she laughed some more.

(Is the other part of the rp over? With the Nolina, or will we circle back to it somehow? Just asking because this rp is kinda stale for me, but feel free to continue. I'll add a new character maybe, idk, because I made Jocelyn because Amaryllis wanted to rp with Jason and Amara. Tell me what you'd like.)

(Kk do you want to rp as Amara and Jason to get to char? I'm gonna introduce a new character now),
Garen awoke in what looked to be a dusty janitorial closet he was suspended in large glass vial-like container filled with a clear viscous liquid that made movement hard. Garen was from a planet orbiting the supernova, Ether. The star exploded shortly after their rescuers came, but, the 'rescuers' we really slavers. Garen was part of the race Althaer. Altheaers were not the most dangerous creatures in the galaxy, but were up there. Standing at three foot two, most weren't impressed. Althaers wdre ofte sold as pets because of their appearance. they have two sharp teeth, big ears, four pitch black eyes, four legs, two of which could be used as arms,but and soft fur covered their entire bodies -Garen's was white -, except their razor sharp claws. Garen knew what was about to happen if he didn't get out of this vat, he was gonna get auctioned. He smashed the glass with his fist cheap glass he thought to himself. Garen then found an outfit that more or less fit him. It was a red jumpsuit that was formal enough. He then walked out into the party.

"That's a shame. You do throw the best parties in the community." Collis mused. Though they didn't go to many parties, it was nice to go once in a while. "You better be careful. The next thing you know," Your best friend will be tearing out your lovers throat, "you'll have someone take it a step further. Poisoning can only be done so much, I mean, it's not cheap to purchase the good stuff either." He pointed out with a small laugh. "Well, thank you for inviting us to your party." He thanked, listening to the soft music that mulled on behind the voices. He did another scan of the room, this time picking up on the habits of the people. Maybe a fifth of the crowd was dancing, another portion hovered near the food, not particularly talking to anyone, while the rest of the group were socializing or playing picked in a corner of the room. He listened to the music, it was a moderately paced song. They'd probably be due for a slower song soon. He and Harlan had mainly done the rumba and other simple dances, but he wasn't the worst with more formal dances. He may love killing, but he enjoyed dancing to -as long as it didn't last excruciatingly long. It served as a good distraction and knowing a guy could dance did wonders with easing the tension in a room. There was just something non-threatening about it. "Mi-" He was cut off as another walked over. This male had caremal colored skin and his eyes were a deep Crimson with black flecks. He had light blonde hair and slightly pointed ears. He had semi-fangs and was about 6'2. He wore a black suit with a silver-gold colored shirt underneath and under that was a white shirt with a standing collar and a white tie tucked under it. He wore white gloves and removed them to extend his hand to the brightly colored woman. "Lady Mivienne, it would be the greatest honor if you would dance the waltz with me on the next song. I am pleased you have invited me to this party you're hosting, I've heard of the great stories that surround them." He charmed. Collis' eyes narrowed as he watched the man, unsure of what to make of him. "S-Sir Damian!" A woman explained, pushing through multiple people. "Please, do not run off like that. You're a nobleman, you should show more- oh," she stopped a moment, seeming to realize she was intruding and she took a step back, "Please forgive me, My Lord, I hadn't known." The man, Damian, brushed it off and had returned his gaze to Mivienne. Oh great, a nobleman was whisking off the host. Wonderful.

Garen made his way to the center of the room, still trying to gain his bearings, when all of the sudden he bumped into an excrutiatingly tall man. Garen had never seen anything that tall before, heck he didn't even have a real name last week. Then he was called 626. &. "I'm so sorry, but could you tell me what star this planet is orbiting? I'm from the Hog's head galaxy which is much further than andromeda, and got invited here. The issue is, my navigation broke down awhile back, and it won't lead me back to Hog's head. It can only navigate the milky way at the moment, and I'd like to see if i've come to a planet that's mapped it yet. If not could you point mr in the right direction?" Garen came up with the lie on the spot, and knew the biggest hole, Hog's head was 20 years away. Garen about 20 in earth years, but 6 in Ether, the planet had entire dark months, where the species had to migrate in order to escape the cold.

Collis had to peer down to see Garen properly. Isn't this one of those pets people have been getting into? Who let it loose? He shook his head and was about to return his attention to the group when Garen started talking. Alright, definitely not a pet then. "You should stay and enjoy the party for now. It's only just begun, it would be rude of you to leave so hastily." He said, pointedly. He knew Hog's Head. That was way to far away, and to arrive at the party, this creature would have taken note of where he was or he would have ended up on the wrong planet. Andromeda spy? Council spy, maybe. He definitely wouldn't be suspected as an assassin, so maybe that's it. He shook his head, not really caring to think about it more than he had to. The thought that Garen may have been an escaped prisoner didn't occur to him.

Garen knew how thin his lie was, but walked off anyone. He saw the man that captured him enter the supply closet, then walk out almost immediately after cursing under his breath. Garen decided to take some action and walked back to the man. Pulling on the leg of Collis' pants he asked "Hey... How much is it gonna cost me for you to distract someone?" There were about 700 credits in the jumpsuit, and Garen knew how expensive these high end bounty hunters tended to be.

Garen gestured toward the man searching the room, holding a rifle. "He's got it out for me" Fear shoje in his eyes as the man spotted him in the crowd. Garen hid behind Collis. He made a soft growl i'm roasted glac burger the thought sent a shiver down his spine. (glacc burger is a fast food chain)

"Hey, you stay here." Collis said, placing his hand on Garen's shoulder. He made his way over the the man, extending his hand in greeting as he came over. "Hey, I'm Collis, it's nice to meet you. I couldn't help but notice that you were eyeing my pet. I just got him, maybe... two months ago? That sounds about right, I really can't be bothered with trifle things like that, though. You know, there were actually five others who looked exactly like him, I was actually thinking about giving him an identification chip. I mean," he paused to look the man in the eyes and spoke with an adage of coldness, "I wouldn't want anyone stealing him." Then, in a lighter tone, he continued, "Anyway, I heard that the Council is grasping for straws in the Great War, as I've heard some people call it. It's a shame to see the Council pushed back to far, I mean, without them, the Milky Way wouldn't have flourished so much. I've had the privilege to see recreational parts of the Milky Way," Granted, it was not by invitation, rather, a crash landing, "It really was beautiful. Now, don't get me wrong, the Andromeda System has a beautiful galaxy and its planets are amazing, but I'm not so much of a fan on how they're destroying the planets." He rambled on about the 'Universal Politics'.

Garen watched as the man tried to sidestep Collis. Once he made eye contact with Garen and he couldn't help but burst out laughing. The man cursed under his breath "how much did the little fleabag pay you for this?" He had been putting up with Garen for months, and knew the antics he often caused. If Garen wasn't contained, this party would end sourly. Not wanting Garen to get loose he kicked Collis in the shin and kept running. Seeing this Garen stopped laughing and ran on all four through the party, up the wall, and into the rafters. The man let out an enormous string of curses and stayed looking up as he returned to the party, slinging his rifle onto his back.

Collis narrowed his eyes and walked over, grabbing the man's shoulder and squeezing it. "There are people here who don't know about the black market and have never been a part of it. Unless you want the Andromeda System and Council on your tail, you better stop before someone contacts the authorities." He warned sternly, keeping his voice low so only the man could hear him. Then, he turned to the onlookers and in a loud voice he spoke, "I'm sorry everyone. My friend up there," he gestured to Garen, "was being a bit of an annoyance, so a skirmish broke out. I do hope you can forgive us." He honestly didn't care for any of this, didn't really know why he was still putting on this charade. If anything, he found the idea of turning Garen into a pile of ashes exciting, but he really didn't want another fight with Andromedans nor Council members. "Anyway," he started again in a hushed voice, "I think you can handle this pest without giving away the whole slave trade thing." With that, he left the man and made his way back over to the small group he'd been in before Garen had rudely interrupted.

"Collis, would you want to..." Kasida looked over her shoulder to realize that Collis had gone off to do what he did best, cause trouble for others. She should have known that he was going to do it eventually. She looked away while she grabbed a drink from a passing server, starting to sip on the sweet drink carefully. She wanted to crush the dainty glass out of frustration. How in her right mind think it was okay to ask him to dance with her? When they would come to these parties, there was always something, or someone, Collis had to do and get himself into some trouble. The young woman fiddled with her glass for a moment or two, trying to keep on a pleasant mask for once. Mivienne kept on chuckling and laughing while she placed a hand on her heart as Lord Damian made his way over to her. Of course she had to look up to make eye contact with him, easily giving him a gracious nod. "The pleasure is mine." she laughed, then she paused at the sight of a woman fussing over him. "Have I distracted him from something important?" she narrowed her eyes ever so slightly, while her voice was more cold than usual. That was when she heard the commotion and Collis calming the crowd. How dare he. She glanced back to Lord Damian before straining a smile, "I must attend to my guests, I will meet you on the dance floor if you have some engagements you need to attend to." she said before pulling away and storming her way to Collis, who was returning. "I should hope that you keep your little escapades more discrete." she told him, her voice sounding sickeningly sweet. She may as well have been holding a knife to his throat. "I figure this is why you want to be laying low, you should keep that in mind." she added while stepping back to give him his own space.

Damian shook his head. "Nothing that can't wait." He returned. Mivienne was always a pleasure to be around, her laughter seemed to lighten the air around them and she was always a supreme hostess. He was surprised to hear the commotion, but dared not diverge his gaze, as to not be rude. He frowned when she said that she must leave and he let out a soft sigh. "I suppose it is only appropriate then. I wish you luck." He said. Damian changed his focuss to see what the problem was, but it seemed to be resolved for the most part, the only thing left was the thick tension that laid weight to the air. He turned to look at Kasida and called up a friendly smile. "I don't believe we have met yet, I am Damian Rouse, a nobleman of Drarith." He introduced. He waited for her to give her name in reply before continuing again. "Seeing as Mivienne had business to attend to, would you honor me with a dance? A waltz simply cannot be waisted." He invited, holding out his hand to her as the music changed to that of a waltz. -- Collis flinched as Mivienne approached his sternly. "That was not one of my prisoners." He corrected, gesturing to the man with the shot gun. "It was his and I was only trying to keep a fight from breaking out. Be grateful I stopped that guy over there before he started shooting, then we'd have Council and Andromeda System soldiers to worry about." He waited for her to rebuke him, an unamused look to his eyes.

Kasida stared boredly into her drink while she was trying to will herself to just do something. Anything. Parties were never much of her thing, and it was already awkward enough with the tension in the room. She had to keep her wings more or less pressed at her side, which wasn't too comfortable to begin with anyway. She glanced about to see the aftermath of how the little pet was now hanging around the rafters. How amusing... She frowned more and looked back to her drink before she was soon figuring out that someone was talking to her. She looked down with a stone expression before smirking a little. He was maybe an inch or two shorter than her, so of course it was a bit funny to see that he was asking her about wanting to dance. "You're sure about that?" she raised an eyebrow while she set her empty glass back on a serving plate, "I'm Kasida Nydia." there was no reason for her to give out her last name anyway, maybe he wouldn't even recognize it as being from some noble clan. "I'd like a dance." she added as she extended her hand to him with a plain smile. Mivienne narrowed her eyes all the more before she rubbed the side of her bald head for a moment or two. "You bounty hunters and your little escapades..." she muttered, already feeling a headache come about. Oh well. She tapped her chin. "I suppose a way you can make this up for me is to give me a dance." she said as she held her hand out to him. "It's only a waltz, and it's only customary that you dance with me as a host." she told him while she expectantly waited for his response. Besides, she figured that she would be able to trade dance partners sooner or later.

Damian was a little taken aback by her initial response, but didn't let it show on his face. "Well, Miss Nydia," he began when she'd finished speaking, "thank you for accepting my invitation to dance." He gently took her hand and lead her to where a few people were already starting to dance. He pulled her right hand up and pressed firmly against it with his own and with his right hand, he placed it on her waist, careful to try and not make her uncomfortable. He waited a few beats before leading her into the rhythm of the song, pushing against her hand to go backwards, leading her to the side, pulling her forward slightly with a gently pressure on her waist and so on. He loved how everyone found their own rhythm while staying in step with the song and how, despite people being so close as they passed or spun, were able to keep from brushing against them. Yes, he found the waltz an elegant dance. "How are you this evening, Miss Nydia?" He asked as they danced. -- "I suppose that's fair." Collis said with an amused smile, taking her hand. He quickly studied the way the other people were moving before falling into rhythm, leading Mivienne best he could. They were dancing a makeshift waltz, but, he was sure, onlookers wouldn't be able to tell. Quick, quick, slow. Quick, quick, slow. He repeated those words in his head as to not make a fool out of Mivienne while dancing the waltz.

Kasida chuckled slightly as she was easily walking along with him. She carefully flexed her wings a little while starting to find some kind of rhythm with the waltz. It felt so foreign to have a male be this close to her and she wasn't killing him or anything like that. Her violet eyes narrowed a little when he started to talk to her. Great, she wasn't one for civilized conversation. Her family had tried to instill those lessons into her, but they had little effect on her war driven ideas. Besides, she wasn't sure what to even say or do while dancing. "I'm doing well, your lordship." she said neutrally. She wasn't going to even try mentioning to him that she had no idea what he wanted out of this interaction anyway. -- "Of course it is, my dear." Mivienne said with a slight smirk as she brought him out to the floor and easily place a hand on his shoulder while grasping his free hand in hers. It was clear that she was the one taking the lead anyway, but no one was going to dare question her about it in the first place. She easily felt herself smiling and already feeling better about the night. "I must ask, where's Harlan, I'm surprised she isn't here to strangle me... You know how she gets." she told him easily.

"That's wonderful to hear, Miss Nydia," Damian replied, leading her into the next set of steps. "You needn't call me your lord, since we are from different planets." He added, not wanting her to feel tense around him. -Though, the fact that she did add that last part made him curious. Most people neglected formalities like that unless it was a planetary custom. "By chance, would you happen to be of a noble family yourself?" He asked her, not able to stifle the curiosity that passed in his voice. -- Collis let out a short sigh as Mivienne began leading him in the dance, their waltz looking more natural now, though, if one was paying attention, it would be easy to see who was leading. Anger burned in his chest at her next comment, but he quickly quelled it and spoke, in a cold voice, "She's dead. -Happened during a fight on our new Andromeda Ship." He purposefully neglected to mention that it was Kasida who killed Harlan.
