[ okay so... Leo.
I'm wondering if we could have this cool dynamic between Zelos and Zacharias where Zelos either:::
A. Hates Zacharias' guts because he is becoming close to Leon(in which case I would want this to remedy through some cool scene between them during the mission). this is the one i like more but don't let that give you a bias xD
or
B. Absolutely loves him because Zach brings him snacks alot or something like that xD
It's really up to you to do whatever! I just thought something like that would be funnnn to rp ]]

With his fears subsiding to nothing more than a dormant spark, Zacharias decided to once again become aware of his surroundings. Zelos sat solemnly in his chair, and was currently being chided by his ‘older cousin’. He appeared to also be wearing something from the very carriage heist that Zacharias had just been pondering about moments before.
A golden watch, one which Zacharias had intended on keeping initially, but had ended up deciding to toss it to Zelos - who had been flying overhead. The dragon-like creature had caught it in his paws, and shortly after the three accomplices had fled the scene.
A glorious day, one which Zach looked back upon fondly.
Shortly after the heist, he had gotten to understand the mysterious Leon a bit better. They had talked for a while, and both ended up showing each other a few slices of their magical abilities.
A few.
Telekinesis? Of course, she had already witnessed on multiple occasions what he was capable of in that area.
Anything else? Absolutely not.
Snapping back to reality at hearing his own name, Zacharias lifted his head towards Leon. She was asking him how he felt, but in that god-awful - albeit extremely accurate - noble accent of hers.
“Oh, no worries at all,” He began, distancing his mind from what had just happened moments ago. When everything had certainly not been fine. “Tonight’s just like any other gala, really. Prepping the food, serving the drinks, cleaning up drunken people’s messes.” Zach said that last part quietly.
“And you, madame?” He added, hoping that his response had been acceptable. To Leon, it didn’t matter, but to the people surrounding them…
Needless to say, it would be less than favorable if they were both exposed.

Well crap.
She wasn’t actually intending on him awnsering nor responding back.
How was she? Well she wanted to answer oh I’m fine, but it turns out that I can’t escape this gala, that the woman who caught me stealing a dress is probably on to me, and now the prince’s babysitter is here babysitting a 100 year old dragon-child.
But that would be just a tiny bit suspicious.
Though she hated that little prince, and his family.
That would be treason to even so much as mumble. Though her gaze flickered back up, before she sighed.
“I’m-“ her voice sounded silent for a moment, “I’m going to be fine,” she said, looking his way, “This castle just reminds me of...” what, her family? “Reminds me of home, is all.” She forced it out, wanting to bang her head into a table for the dumb response, “We’ve been in the kingdom for a few days, I guess I’m just homesick.” She said with a small laugh.
If someone didn’t know her, the excuse would fall through easily, it fit perfectly with a homesick girl. But those who knew her better? Like Zach and Zelos, she may be as easy to read as a book.
She was slightly uncomfortable as well, being near Eldred. She remembered that her father, the prince many years before she was born and Valdera was overthrown, had mentioned Eldred and having known him.
Her thoughts soured again, her father, from what she heard, was a much more mature and outgoing prince than the current one. Too good to even come and speak to the guests? She had no clue that his mother and father expected such of him, but either way it annoyed her.
Baring some resemblance to her father, she didn’t like being near Eldred, it would be a very long shot, but if he even so much as got the inkling she was a Valdera, she could e dead, and probably would be. Though he didn’t seem to notice anything thus far, she was still paranoid.

Something was off with Leon, that much he could tell. Her words - although still thick with a noble accent and well fluctuated - gave Zacharias a hint as to what she was thinking.
She was worried, no doubt from almost losing Zelos at an insignificant party. What had she came here for, anyway? Food? A few special items, maybe?
Judging by her eyes, which Zach had learned to read well, Leon was uncomfortable in that given situation. And although he didn’t know about Drusilla or Eldred’s connections to the girl, he did know that she needed help in getting out of there.
“Ah, yes, I’ve been seeing lots of nobles from the surrounding kingdoms…” he began, trailing off slightly as he measured his next words to give Leon advantage over the situation. Anything that she would be able to use to leave the gala. “Do you, by any chance, live in Ronan? That’s quite a ways away, even by horse.”
To the others, it would appear he would simply be making small talk(although that may as well be putting him in an odd position, seeing as he was disguised as a server), but to Leon it would likely be seen as an escape hatch. Zach knew Ronan to be the closest neighboring kingdom to their own, and if Leon was mentioning homesickness then she probably had some sort of backstory already concocted.

[ oof, that was really short but it's gotta be my last before I head off to bed.
Also, if Leon does take the escape hatch, then we will probably want the king and queen to be poisoned pretty soon?
Just cause I want Zach to be able to react to that hehe, and he'll probably be helping Leon leave ]]

Her eye’s scanned him for a moment, yet his words about seeing nobles disturbed her. He was playing along to her being a noble, but only Zelos knew how close to the truth the statement really was. She looked at Zelos next, wondering what he must have been thinking.
“Oh yeah,” she said, turning to him, a bit shocked and surprised, “We do life in Ronan,” how in the world did you know that’s the place we planned to say we lived in? she didn’t say that, but she looked all kinds of shocked, “How did you know?”

Zacharias shrugged his shoulders, "Just the next kingdom over," he said, looking around idly. He didn't exactly judge Leon's decision - at least not outwardly - but did internally note that he would've gone for a much further kingdom. Less people arriving from them meant less people with the ability to see through your lies.
Then again, it seemed that both Leon and Zach were both currently in the clear.
Maybe not from Drusilla, though... Her prying eyes and odd inflections when speaking to Leon sent off alarms in his mind. Something was off about her. She knew something.
And Zach didn't like it.

”Yeah.” Leon noted matter-of-factly, her tone almost normal to itself, casting an almost bored glance at Zacharias, oh wait that was boredom not almost bored. “What about it?”
Her snark really met no bounds, and she was already frustrated by this point, the act was diminishing quickly, though was still there, at least partly.
She was in the clear, and if Drusilla wanted to suspect anything, let her, if she decided to turn in Leon, Leon would escape, or be long gone before anyone would catch her. Her name, at least the last, was a fake, and no one except a select few knew of Leonela.
Basically, she wasn’t scared of Drusilla in the least. But she was already way past annoyed. Her gaze was filled with the emotion as well.

Internally, Zacharias was narrowing his eyes and scrunching his nose, wondering why on earth Leon was beginning to omit her cover. Truly, this girl was one of the most unpredictable people he knew. Externally, however, Zach kept a calm look under the sudden scrutiny of Leon's words. He wanted to pinch her, wanted to signal for her to stop.
Had she given up? Had she simply decided to make a quick escape after finding Zelos? Whatever it was, her change back into a mostly-normal tone lead Zacharias to believe that getting caught mattered little to her.
It didn't matter much to Zach that she was doing this, except that her words were quite literally dragging him down with her.
"Uhh, I-" Zach stammered, trying to come up with a quick response. Why did she have to be so difficult? "Just that... I've seen lots of guests here from Ronan."
Well, shit.

Leon was tempted to snap out at Drusilla, tell her to stay in her own business and go off and ride her damn carriage back home and die. But right before she could get the words out, Zach responded again, and she could tell something about him was off.
I really want to out him right now.
It wasn’t nice, but it would be fun.
Her gaze locked on him, once more, contemplating her actions. Before she had the faintest of a smirk on her face, “Really?” She questioned, raising an eyebrow. Before glancing at Zelos, “Have enough of your trout?” She asked, eyebrow still raised, before she backed up, “Because I’m hungry for macaroons,” she commented with a smile, “Madame Drusilla, why don’t you speak here with Eldred until we return? I could even bring back those cream puffs I saw you munching on earlier. I’d hate to leave you without company, but it seems you know Sir Eldred,” She offered, before standing up, and stalking off just like a spoiled noblewoman would do, leaving without even affirmation. Watch Drusilla follow that!
She hoped Zelos and Zach both got the message, blazing blue eyes narrowed.
