You know... This was the last place I think I would ever make a return trip to

[redcloakedthief]

[So she's back. And in one piece. Heh.]

Now that isn't fair. I've been on my best behavior.

[redcloakedthief]

[Snerk. Have some light sarcasm.]

I pined away during your absence. Can't you tell?

[sweeperesque]

You've always been good at hiding things. Makes me wonder what else you're keeping from me.

[redcloakedthief]

You would be disappointed, probably. My life isn't all that interesting, after all.

[sweeperesque]

Hm? Not just hiding things, but outright lying now?

[redcloakedthief]

Uh-oh. You caught me red-handed this time.

[A shrug, and he is still grinning.]

[sweeperesque]

[And an amused laugh from her.]

My goal in Vatheon is to do it more often, hopefully in a situation that matters next time.

[redcloakedthief]

[His response is flippant.]

I guess I just need to try harder next time, huh?

[sweeperesque]

Well, I'm always up for a challenge.

[redcloakedthief]

[He shakes his head, laughing quietly.]

I know you are.

[A pause, as he thinks for a moment, and then he shrugs.]

I don't think you missed much more, except for the ball and the gender-changing jellyfish.

[sweeperesque]

[... what.]

Run that by me again.

[redcloakedthief]

A ball? Well, you see, Saya, balls generally involve dancing, refreshments and socializing amongst the attendees.

[:D]

[sweeperesque]

[... well, she needed clarification on that too, so.]

Huh, been a while since I've heard the term 'ball' used. Sorry to hear that I missed it. Did you have fun?

Now if you'd be so kind as to elaborate on the second and more confusing half, Matthew?

[redcloakedthief]

[He laughs and ignores the question about having fun. Silly Saya, that's not what balls are for.]

Well, as part of the 'ball', there were these jellyfish that showed up. If they touched you, they turned you into the opposite gender, or put some of the guys here into dresses.

[sweeperesque]

... so I missed Matthew in a dress? Darn.

[And she doesn't sound nearly as disappointed as you might expect. She's pretty glad she missed it, really.]

[redcloakedthief]

You don't have very much faith in me, Saya.

[Nope, he avoided all of the jellyfish. :D It pays to have a maxed out Agility stat.]
