Lunar had been surveying the crowd when a tap to the arm caught her attention. "Hmmm?" Lunar said as she turned, her eyes lighting up upon seeing Wuxtry. She took note of the small dragon and his attire, and how overall adorable he was.
"Hiya Wux- wha-what?" Lunar gasped, taken aback by the question- as harmless as it was. She watched with curiosity as the dragon's face flushed. Though it seemed impossible, the dragon appeared all the more adorable.
"Aww Wux." she cooed gently, a small blush appearing on her own cheeks, "Well, since you asked so nicely~"
Lunar leaned in, placing her hand on his shoulder, and placed a quick kiss upon the dragon' cheek.

I don't think it was possible for Wux to blush anymore than he already was, if he could his head might have exploded. He was shocked at first, but then a huge smile appeared on his face.
He couldnt believe lunar had actually given him a kiss!! He was going to give her the chocolate anyway, but decided not to as it was pretty much half melted after being in his pocket the whole day.
He gave lunar a tight hug, then bounced away back to his little group, wax still coming out slowly from his horns.

Echo walked in the ball room and smiled, her eyes bright with excitement. She had her freshly cut to her mid back and a ball gown in a beautiful blue swishing when she walked. Her wings where decorated with jewels and flowers for the occasion. She stopped for a second to readjust her blue and green flower crown before she continued moving, spotting many people she knew. She moved to one of the corners of the room and found a few chairs. The girl took a seat and happily watched everyone dance.

Tapi was pissed.
But then again, when wasn't she?
The ballroom doors slammed open, the skirt of her dress swirling around and revealing flashes of mutlicolored eyes below that definitely weren't blinking.
Definitely not.
Behind her the lantern creatures seemed slouched in exasperation, as if they themselves were somehow already tired of the woman's antics. "Keep those doors open." She told them, blue eyes piercing without the normal barrier of her shades to hide them. The lanterns nodded and resumed their standing, seemingly staring away, though it was hard to tell as they had no eyes of their own.
"You shouldn't cause such a commotion dear." Problem purred from beside her, rising up from Tapi's own shadow in her normal attire. The leader scoffed, bare arms crossing over her elaborate dress to glare at the smaller woman. "Look, you've already upset the children." The nightmare gave a laugh that to anyone else might have been pleasant and only slightly teasing but to Tapi sounded only mocking. Her eyes flickered over the room, catching the startled and frozen forms of her cultists.
With another scoff and a wave of her hand a stage rose up against the wall near the dance floor, the leader making her way towards it with Problem close behind.
"They'll be fine. Let's just get this shit over with before I have to snuff out someone from sheer boredom."
(for this event bear with Problem and I as we need to post together for a few announcement related things)

Gabriel had been busy this evening mingling with different people, Lola, Tea, Winston, Falsetto and Dreamer just to name a few and just had a drink to recover from his last dance, when the leader stomped into the dance hall. There was no other word really. The vampire went stiff in his posture and grabbed his drink harder. Seeing the leader this way was definitely not good and Gabriel didn't look forward to anything she was going to do, and as it looked, it was something important. He watched Tapi's every step closely, just to make sure he was far away enough from the leader to not get smoked to death. The only thing he found a bit sad was, that he hadn't seen Problem before. Gabriel would have asked her for a dance, but Balls didn't seem like something the older cultist would enjoy much in the first place, so it was no surprise for the man that she hadn't shown up. As he nervously drank from his drink, he heard someone step closer and at first he actually was scared a bit, shoulders jumping into tension, before he saw it was Serena. "I do not know what's going on." He whispered to her.

Scorpius , raganiazumi
Serena had stopped mid dance with Scorps, hand still lingering on his shoulder as she watched Tapi enter the Ballroom. Her brows furrowed in worry. She didn't look happy at all, and even Serena new that it was never a good think if Tapi didn't look happy (although, she couldn't help but notice, her dress was gorgeous) "I'm sorry Scorpious, you must excuse me!" She said, turning to her former dance partner. "Maybe we can pick this up again at another time?" She leaned forward and gave him a small peak on the cheek before she hurried away. She didn't even wait for an answer. The Vampire was standing at the bar when Serena spottet, and quickly strode over to him. She wanted to ask 'What is going on?' but the question must have clearly been written all over her face, because Gabriel answered before she had even opened her mouth. She looked even more worried now, hooking one arm under Gabriels "I hope it's nothing bad." She whispered, despite all the odds speaking against her.

Lunar was standing around now, mingling here and there even dancing with Nylios at one point before returning to her friends. Heels were a nightmare, and how she had been talked into wearing them she had no idea, but none the less she was having a great time. Seeing so many cultists together was incredibly refreshing, especially seeing them happy and laughing. It all seemed so great and then who would walk in but the cult leader.
Lunar almost ducked into the shadows, prepared to leave if anything unsavory were to happen, before calming herself. Exchanging worried glances with those closest to her she took a deep breath. "Well," she sighed, "If we die tonight at least we can say we were killed by something beautiful."
She looked around nervously. Her joke might not have been well timed.

Echo looked up at Tapi's voice and found her on a newly formed stage. She stood up herself, and took a few steps forward to try to get a better look at what their leader wanted to discuss. She let a smile grace her face for a second at Tapi's dress before she went back to almost military attention.

Max looked over to tapi with his jubilent expression and before long he found conflict whether he should stay or run. He wanted to talk to Jeu and others like maybe lunar, but his boxers instincts were all over the place. Sensin impending dread from the beautiful leader that he was sure was just going to ice him just by looking at him. I guess that's why all these different species are subjugated by the boss. There was the slight fear, but underneath that was an odd mix of respect and reverence to him. Also it was a bit odd as in that outfit she actually resembled his sister. A shudder leaves his spine and he thinks. Well thank god, after that comparison he saw tapi is kind of a familiar grumpy guardian. Although that maybe false. He looks to Jeu curiously, unsure of what to do or say so he just followed Jeu nodding "god, she looks nice and is terrifying in a way

As the doors shut behind her, it hadn't been so abundantly clear that Eve didn't interact with many of the cultists until she entered the ballroom. She never thought of herself being shy of all things, though her current awe of all the small chatter and dances in midst of her own solitude (though it was brought on entirely by herself), she realized she hadn't been very outgoing either. Itching the nape of her neck nervously, she scooted a bit away from the entrance so she wasn't blocking anybody's way and debated to herself whether or whether not to interrupt someone to introduce herself.
However, her thoughts were interrupted as the cult's leader entered. It was obvious she was not in the greatest mood, and the fallen angel reeled away and her previous worries were forgotten while trying to stay out of Tapi's way. In the process, she didn't see the cultist behind her, and proceeded to bump into them and stumble, thankful she had opted not to wear heels. "Sorry!" she squeaked while attempting to regain her footing. "I d-didn't mean to bump into y-you."

There was definitely...something, about feeling all their souls flicker in unease at her presence. It was something Tapi never really got over- a bad habit she should fix. Hiding a too happy smile behind a cough she walked to the center of the stage, standing not so high above the rest of them yet seeming to loom nonetheless.
"Alright you sh-" a small flick of one of Problem's tentacles to her arm had the leader sighing and throwing a glare at the older woman. "Alright everyone," she said, sarcasm dripping from her voice. "Welcome to our one year anniversary, blah blah blah, have fun dancing, blah blah blah, there's going to be activities, so on, so forth, etc." She hated this kind of shit, it was almost as bad as paper work. A shudder ran through her at that and her flame flickered just the slightest in annoyance.
"I have a few announcements to make in regards to the recent additions and changes to the manor and our," she paused and squinted, not wanting to say her next words. "Cult, as we're known to be. Firstly," Tapi jerked her thumb to the side, indicating the doors and the lantern men standing outside them. "Those are our new butlers, if you will. These guys are magical constructs that are being set up both in the manor and the forest. Think of them as pawns in a chess game. They're pretty much useless asides from what they can do, partly which is being our first line of defense. The two out there are our prototypes, explicitly made for this event. My, associate, and I make them so if you have a need for an extra hand, swing by my office and we'll discuss that." She sighed and rested her hands on her hips, turning to look at Problem momentarily.
The other seemed distracted, white eyes narrowed slightly and head turned to stare at one of the walls. Leave it to Problem to start day-dreaming in the middle of a speech she'd made Tapi do. With a huff the leader looked back at the crowd and waved one of her hands in a vague gesture. "Like I said, they're still prototypes so we have a few things to fix."

Aly ducked into the bathroom a bit after Tapi stormed in, footsteps light and her dress making soft swishes as she moved. Sighing quietly, she pulled her wings close against her and slid against the wall towards the crowd, anxious to be out of Tapi's sight. She spotted a few of her friends in the crowd as her eyes flickered able nervously, and she scuttled towards them, keeping her wings up around her as to not attract any notice with the glow of her hair.

Lola suddenly felt a bit of tension. Of course Tapi was here, that pretty much solved the question "why is every cultist suddenly tense as hell?". Lola walked to her friends Serena and Gabriel (raganiazumi ). She was more or less calm, her ears only twitching here and there as she read the mood in the room. She looped an arm around Gabriel's waist as she got to them, and placed a hand on Serena's shoulders. "Relax you two" Lola knew enough of Tapi's antics to assume nobody was in trouble....yet. "It's probably an thing for the ball" she shrugged. "I doubt something is wrong" She thought about it for a moment, looking at her friends and her ears drooping ever so slightly "But if it eases your minds, lets stick close together until Tapi's done with whatever the hell she's doing"

'Well this was unexpected' was the only thought that crossed the knights mind as he saw his leader and another companion of her's, walk in. He had been able to dance with various different cultist so far and his nervous had finally died down and replaced with content and he finally found himself in conversation, having snacks and most of all not stumbling as he danced with many beautiful people . From the whispers he gathered that the other was Problem and that Tapi was pissed so that was that. Politely he gave a soft smile before blindly walking towards Nylios, Lunar and others who were around them. Oh boy their leader was talking about the the latern butler that lead them here. His eye glanced back at the talk of the subject before going back to look at his leader and Problem who seemed not to really pay attention surprisedly. Prototypes? Did they have problems then, and if so what were they? He wondered as he took another glance toward them.
