"Here you are," comes a male voice as a gentlemen in a tasteful but stylish suit hands you a flute of champagne. It turns out it's Flynn Scifo, your date at tonight's New Years Eve party. A rather high-brow affair with elegant dresses, fancy suits, very good food, and lots of champagne. Maybe you've known him before tonight, or maybe this is the ( Read more... )

For being a country girl, Gemini cleaned up rather nicely. Red hair was tied back and curled, her form clad in a shimmery silver dress with matching flats and gloves. She supposed perhaps he asked her out because she was an actress and he'd seen her on stage; it would make sense. However, he hadn't torn his eyes away once that evening, and he had been the perfect gentleman.

At his compliment, Gemini smiled, taking the glass of champagne. "Thank ya kindly, Flynn. I've had a wonderful night so far." Some things about her couldn't be changed much, and her Texan accent was one of them, but he didn't seem to mind. And much to Gemini's surprise, she found herself more and more attracted to him as the night passed.

Flynn smiled, not minding her accent in the slightest, and raised his glass slightly to her before taking a conservative sip. Flynn hadn't seen Gemini before today, but something about her made him feel compelled to ask her to join him at tonight's party.

"It's odd," he said, his gaze not leaving hers. "This is only the second time I've celebrated the coming of a new year like this. We didn't celebrate a new year like this in my world. I quite like it."

"Really? Do ya celebrate some otha way?" Gemini took a sip of her own drink, liking the way the bubbles danced on her tongue. "This is my first time evah spendin' New Year's with someone like this..." A date on New Year's was something she had always daydreamed about, but this had gone above and beyond her wildest dreams and fantasies. It was quite amazing, really.

And now we BS some kind of celebration for Flynns world XD divine_streak December 31 2011, 01:43:49 UTC

Flynn nodded. "We do. Though it's become something of a mere formality in recent years, each person is expected to make a wish for the future. It's a quaint little tradition, and people have begun to lose interest in it the older they get."

Though there was a quality to Flynn's voice that said he had a special fondness for the tradition. "Though I prefer to treat a wish as a goal that one has to work towards bringing to reality. I'm afraid I no longer believe in miracles."

There was a note of solemness in his voice as he said that, but he returned his gaze to the beautiful red head with an earnest smile on his lips. "I'm glad I was able to help accomadate you then. It's a pleasure for me to spend tonight with someone as well. Especially someone like you."

Now, Fuu has gotten to know Flynn to the point that she would have agreed to the date under normal circumstances.

Being asked out when he clearly seemed to her eyes as though he was under the influence of something might have given her pause, but (un)fortunately, the chocolates she had been tasting when he had arrived were also laced with a weaker love potion - not enough to have her fall as deeply as he had, but enough to simply be happy to spend more time with him.

And indeed, so far the date had been as good as her love potion-induced fantasies: every bit the perfect gentleman she knew him to be, and as for how he had only taken his eyes off her to address the waiter or to reassess their surroundings, well, she had done the same. And she liked being seen by her date as the most interesting thing in the whole Hotel.

"Thank you, Sir Flynn. I must say, you look quite dashing yourself, especially tonight," she replied.

Flynn chuckled as he took a sip of champagne.

"You flatter me," he said simply before reaching across the table to take hold of her hand. "Thank you for agreeing to come to this celebration with me. We don't have the likes of it at home, so I'm happy to spend it with someone I consider a dear friend."

Fuu took a sip of champagne as well, reaching out with her hand and feeling the warmth of his own. "And thank you for asking me to this celebration. It has been even more wonderful than last year's with you by my side."

Carol had been thrilled. Taken by surprise and charmingly flushed, but thrilled that he'd invited her. Her mind had very briefly gone confused at the way her heart fluttered of course, but the love drug she'd been fed was potent. Before the young woman could even blink, she just didn't care that a perfect stranger was garnering such a reaction from her. Now, here they were, with him looking so handsome and she dressed in lace finery.

"Thank you," Carol said, soft and sweet, as her bare fingers curled around the delicate glass. Not for the first time that evening, she was acutely aware of his unwavering attention, her bright lips lightly curling.

"You look wonderful too," she praised, gingerly smoothing a hand over his crisp suit jacket. "Very strapping."

Flynn smiled at her compliment, but flushed ever so slightly at the feel of her hand over his body. No matter how heavily aphro'd he was or how potent the love potion was, Flynn was still Flynn, and he blushed like mad in response to a woman's affection. The best the hotel could hope to do was lessen it.

"Thank you Carol," he smiled. "I'm so happy you agreed to come. I'm sure the thought of spending the evening with a complete stranger was less than appealing to you. Especially in a place like this."

With that said, Flynn took hold of her free hand with his and raised it so he could place a kiss on the back of it. "Thank you for giving me the oppurtunity to prove myself."

She found that adorable, really. Not to mention it made her feel less self-conscious about her own near perpetually rosy cheeks. Carol was certainly accustomed to catching the attention of the opposite sex, but this was the first time it had made her heart beat so wildly. It was as wonderful as it was frightening.

"Oh... on the contrary, actually..." Her gaze fell, just for a moment really, shying and peering into her glass, before it met his once more. "I feel quite giddy in your company. And safe."
