Re: 8pm-10pm speedy_devilbat May 30 2008, 10:05:50 UTC

Sena spluttered in surprise. "E-eh?" Damn it. Wasn't he even allowed to find his friends?

Blackmail doesn't work on me, you know He wanted to say.It was true though- blackmail on Sena didn't work. Hiruma knew that well. After all, that's why he never blackmailed Sena into doing anything- all he had to do was ask Sena or threaten him into doing things. Though, at this rate, threats were going to lose their magic on Sena fast. Still...cameras...he never really liked them ( ... )

Re: 8pm-10pm fuckingdevilbat May 30 2008, 14:35:12 UTC

Hiruma simply nodded. Damn, there were a lot of people here already. It made him slightly uncomfortable, but he didn't let it show.

He took out his camera (well, Sena's camera) and started recording, "SMILE FOR THE CAMERA, BIRDIE!" He made sure he captured her whole look, "Very Cinderella-y. Kekekekekkekee. Oh, and neither of you try to leave. I've given very specific instructions to our friends, the guards ( ... )

Max blinked the flash away and gave one last glare before going away. The dress had an open back, so she left her wings slightly out. Not too far that she'd whack someone with them, but enough that you could see the beautiful colorations she loved so much.

She was glad neither of them knew she had stashed clothes on the grounds before her entrance. They might steal them just to torment her. It was bad enough she could barely walk (her feet ached abominably) and that flying in the dress was awkward.

Breathing to keep herself from lashing out at the crowd (she was suddenly glad she'd agreed to get over her crowd fear. It made ignoring her fight-or-flight response a lot easier) to keep them away.

Luckily no one had tried to kidnap her for some freaky genetic experimentation. Already a plus.

Stalking was probably the best way to describe Hisanori's movements as he made his way towards the group that was assembling. At the very least, his expression was actually appropriate for the occasion and for most present it would surely do a convincing job of persuading them that he was thoroughly enjoying himself. He looked no different than what he was used to (As it had been a long time since he had been seen in anything but very nice suits), with the exception of a mask that emphasized the strangeness of his face: on the right his actual face showed, light-skinned and smiling as always. The left, though, was covered with a black mask in the contrasting shape of a stern frown.

"Would you look at that, 'Special' Miss Bennet and her group of friends in person." He nodded a very slight nod in greeting, "And her date, of course. Hopefully I'm not interrupting any business among the lot of you."

Re: 8pm-10pm fuckingblondie May 30 2008, 18:55:35 UTC

"Well it's not like Max will be too miserable for too long," Claire said, pointing at the entrance where one Danny Fenton had just walked through the doors. "She can go be with the date we forced on her."

Grinning over at Hiruma and Sena, she nodded. "Or you could just pull a mysterious stranger and keep changing every ten minutes. Though that might turn into an inconvenience," she laughed softly.

So much for not saying the right thing. Hiruma got a smile as if to say yes, well done, that's perfect, you didn't even add profanity, before smiling down at Kisa again. "Who's here with you ( ... )

Re: 8pm-10pm blazebrother May 30 2008, 21:03:22 UTC

"Well sorry then, hopefully I'm not interrupting any socializing and having fun among the lot of you." Even if nothing of real interest was going on, hastily-conducted research via old journal entries combined with a desire to see and more importantly hear some of the more popular residents of Rivelata made this whole event seem worthwhile.

If he was capable of doing so, Hisanori would have given a puzzled look when introduced to Hiruma. It had nothing to do with the way it was done, but that it existed in the first place. Did Claire really think that he didn't review any of the numerous journal entries about this hot little item, or was she just following his instructions about formalities? Maybe it was just for the benefit of the other guy. "Yeah, I've read a bit about the two of you while flipping through old journal pages-" A slight laugh broke the statement in two. "-Your involvement with each other for this event was apparently really exciting for some people."

Re: 8pm-10pm speedy_devilbat May 30 2008, 22:34:22 UTC

He smiled sheepishly at the next words, resisting the urge to beam at the duo. "S-sorry."

Relieved that there was some way to get out of these godforsaken heels, he nodded before sweatdropping. He had done that before. And well, knowing that there was a change of clothes upstairs...suddenly, he didn't feel so gloomy anymore. Being shooed away as a another man came walking up towards them, he walked off himself, waving over his shoulder.

Re: 8pm-10pm fuckingdevilbat May 31 2008, 00:04:11 UTC

"Oh good! Fucking ghost boy is here! We just have to make sure we get a hold of her later." He grinned evilly.

To Sena, he gave a slight wave goodbye. No, he wasn't so heartless. He pretty much felt Sena's panic and frustration with the whole event lifting. Good. Hiruma wanted him to be very embarrassed, not completely miserable. It was a party, afterall.

Hiruma's mind immediately started clicking when he saw Hisanori approach. This man was obviously bad news. He definitely didn't trust that smile.

Reminded Hiruma too much of himself.

But he didn't say anything, or show any expression. He simply grinned, "Well, I couldn't tell you why they made such a big fucking stink about it, to be honest."

Re: 8pm-10pm blazebrother May 31 2008, 03:04:53 UTC

"People just need something to talk about other than the current political happenings, I'm sure." Hiruma's lack of expressive shift was slightly worrying. Were they really playing the same game with each other, or was he just reciprocating? It couldn't really be tested unless he could say or do something to make Hiruma react visibly. It would be difficult to pull off without being too obvious, so Hisanori simply decided to continue, "That's the reason we're here, isn't it?"

Re: 8pm-10pm fuckingblondie May 31 2008, 03:45:39 UTC

The idea of this being Sena in an 'adventurous' phase made Claire chuckle softly, as did the way Kisa was acting towards Hiruma. Either he was really good with children, or Kisa had a blind eye to what wasn't being good with children ( ... )

Re: 8pm-10pm blazebrother May 31 2008, 04:55:35 UTC

"Nothing special?" He saw that as poor wording on Claire's part, given their only previous conversation when she had been fairly insistent of otherwise. That was as far as the questioning on that subject was going to go, for now - his goal wasn't to be unsettling or bothersome or even rude. Not this time, anyway.

"Even though anything between you beyond what's right in front of us right now is just gossip," he loved gossip, "You've done a great job coordinating. You match very nicely." Matching. Like his and Himura's flawless poker faces. This was like having to deal with a younger and significantly less round version of his former boss.

"Oh, and I've only just arrived." Wasn't it obvious? Out of anyone except maybe the guards, the hostess of the event should have been able to keep track of who entered and left.

Re: 8pm-10pm fuckingdevilbat May 31 2008, 14:13:22 UTC

"che, people talk, Hisanori-san. They babble and they don't ever say a real word, ne?" He grinned, looking devilish as ever. Yep, this guy used the same Poker Face that Hiruma did; a never ceasing smile. He would be a hard nut to crack.

He faintly wondered who would crack first.

"Kekeke," the tail of his costume swished in a sort of pleased manner. How HAD he rigged it to do that? Oh well, a question for another day.

"Ah, well, I hope you have some fun or whatever, then! Kinda hard to keep track of the comings and goings when you have to make small talk." A low blow? perhaps.

Re: 8pm-10pm fuckingblondie June 1 2008, 00:49:31 UTC

Poor wording? Hardly. Claire dismissed it with a shrug.

But really, this guy was far worse than Hiruma on the all smiles and no frowns basis. At least Hiruma had other facial expressions.

This guy didn't.

"Oh thank you." Gossip. She wondered what exactly he was referring to in terms of the two of them and what people were saying, but it wasn't as if it mattered particularly.

Nodding to Hiruma's comment, she smiled over at him before nodding her regards to Hisanori.

It was still going to be a long night.

Re: 8pm-10pm blazebrother June 1 2008, 01:15:04 UTC

"I suppose they do" was the simple blind agreement of choice, even if he heavily disagreed with what was being said. To him, every word, every truth, and every lie was important. There were so many things he could pick out that were wrong about that short statement that he didn't even know where he could begin to oppose it. He bit his tongue, though - corrections were reserved strictly for close associates. These people were free to say as they wished for now and possibly ever.

The more he heard Hiruma speak, the more he was determined that there probably was more to their relationship than what they were willing to admit. Really, why would a proper hostess select someone so... rough around the edges to accompany her if there wasn't something more to it? Whether it was relationship related or not, there was definitely something there. He needed more hints to put his finger on the exact nature of it, and it was obvious that this wasn't the right time to collect those hints ( ... )
