Okay, anyone is allowed to join this RP, despite its location, but I'll get to details in a moment. There will be no post order just yet, but if enough people join, it will become necessary. Make sure you're considerate of everyone else who has joined.
Setting
This takes place a little before the events of Crisis Core. ShinRa is still around, SOLDIER and Turks included, everything is pretty much normal, Sephiroth, Angeal, and Genesis are pretty much how they used to be, no one's dead, certain people haven't met yet either. Please, use your common sense to decide if something is appropriate or not. If you have questions, just PM me. Also, don't try to take over the thread for others, PM me or others included when you want something to happen, just so that it's fair, people may want to do things without any interruptions at the moment.
What's This Thread About?
Well, there's not much of a story to it, though it could turn into one, it's basically meant to be fun. Anyway, President ShinRa will be celebrating his, shall we say 50th birthday? With a Masquerade Ball, whether people like it or not, they have to dress up and attend the party to please the money-grabbing, power obsessed fat old man. Though, who knows? We could get some party crashers or something. I just really want everyone to have fun! So, please join!
Extra
Masquerade garments will be required, should be funny seeing everyone all dressed up xD
You can post just about anywhere in ShinRa HQ, though the Masquerade ball will be held in the lobby decorated with fancy lights, carpet, chairs and tables, followed by a long table filled with food and drinks on to the side of the room. Alcohol is allowed, though if your character is underage... well, who cares!? xD
To join this rp, please post who you will be rp as, and just type up an intro. No permission necessary to join.
I'm going to be RPing as all my characters in this one to really give myself a push. |

___________________________
___________________________ Saturday, 10:00pm"Hey! Kyrie! You ready yet? C'mooon! I wanna get to the booze before anyone else, yo!" a fiery red head called from outside the 2nd Class SOLDIERs room within the ShinRa building. Typical Reno. Always one to be present when there was alcohol involved, he'd do pretty much anything for the stuff, even if it meant dressing like a complete moron, then again, it wasn't like he was the only one dressed so... he couldn't even describe it.
His attire for today's event resembled that of the devil, charming yet quite sexy, complete with the devil tail itself, courtesy of Kyrie, who helped him shop for it. Being Reno, his attire was less than tidy, he wore it just like he wore his Turks uniform, two buttons up top unbuttoned, shirt untucked, he wore a tie for today, but it was loosely around his neck.
He let out a silent groan before lightly tapping on Kyrie's door again, his 'date' for the night, friendly, of course. They be just going as friends. "Kyrie! Come ooon! The beer will be gone by the time we get there!" he whined like a small child, now... it wasn't that Kyrie was taking too long, it was just Reno was way too impatient, she had only been getting ready for ten minutes.
It was then Kyrie finally responded to Reno's complaints. "Alright, I'm coming out now," he could hear her soft chuckles as the door handle clicked, slowly opening. Reno cocked an eyebrow as he moved away from the wall he was leaning against, eyeing the sight before him. She did actually look quite good, yeah... maybe not his type, but still good. "Kyrie, you look like an angel," he smirked slyly with a wink, taking in her angelic attire.
Kyrie just laughed and playfully punched his arm. "Well, duh! That's the whole idea, Reno. We agreed to this, you dumbass!" she returned his smirk. The dress that she wore seemed to wrap securely around her chest and stomach, it was white, her favourite colour along with silver embroidering. For the first time ever, her hair was tied in the style of a low side ponytail that rested on her right breast with a white ribbon, her bangs nearly covered the left side of the mask, and only slightly on the right.
Reno's hair was a bit different, too. Same style, just with a few black tips on the spikes, just to add to his style of choice, it'd wash out in the morning. "Okay, let's go then," Kyrie smiled as she held onto his arm, pulling him along. The two walked along the halls, heading towards the lobby where the President's birthday party was being held, why he had chosen a masquerade ball was a mystery to everyone, and unfortunately, there was no getting out of the dress code for anyone. Both Kyrie and Reno didn't seem to mind though, it would be quite a fun night.
"So, do you think anyone will recognise us like this?" she smiled over at Reno, who was practically desperate for a beer, he broke out of his obsession and looked at her. "Me? They might do, though they might not, as for you, well, even I hardly recognised you, but... I guess we'll see, no one really pays attention to others around here, yo!" he smirked, lightly punching her arm, Kyrie just smiled. "I'm guessing you just wanna get on over to the bar, huh?" she smiled, knowing that he would "I can't believe there's gonna be free drinks."
Even she couldn't believe it, but Reno didn't care, he was delirious about it. "I know, right!? Finally, someone out there has finally answered my fuckin' prayers!" he punched the air with excitement, suddenly wanting to get to the party sooner. "Okay, calm down, Reno," she smiled, ruffling his hair "oh yeah, guess that means I can drink, too". Reno raised an eyebrow, staring at her skeptically.
"You sure? I mean, you're only--" she finished for him "okay, well I'm almost eighteen, only two years younger than you," she then rolled her eyes at him "not like age has ever mattered to you, you told me that you drunk when you were fourteen, and yet you're trying to get at me drinking at a legal age? Honestly, Reno."
She then mimicked one of his famous snickers all the while whilst smirking playfully at him, Reno returned both and put his arm around her, much like a playful older brother, he was somewhat protective over her, too. "Whatever, squirt!" he chuckled, after all, he was a good few inches taller than her, perfect for older brother material. "So, you gonna be dancin' with all the guys?" he flashed her a devilish smile, she just looked up at him, eyebrow raised. "Unlike you, Reno, I'm not the type to jump to one guy to the other, or in your case, girls."
Reno stammered offensively, before showing off a pout. "Heeey! That's not fair, I'm allowed to, besides, I'm older, so nyah!" he gave a pretty weak excuse as he stuck his tongue out at her, oh yes, this was pretty much a brother and sister relationship, Kyrie just smiled and laughed, shaking her head at him as they nearly reached the lobby.
"Whoa! Check this out! Must've cost quite a bit, yo!" Reno said quite enthusiastically at the sight. Red carpet had been rolled down the stairs, ending at the entrance, there was two long tables of food on the left and right side of the lobby, even desserts and a chocolate fountain, there was a bar over at the side, a stage on the right of the stairs with an band playing some classical music, Kyrie seemed happy with the choice of music, though it would change during, she could tell by the guitars and drum kits that were placed at the back.
It really was quite beautiful, the moonlight peeked in from the windows, crystal chandeliers hung from the ceilings, and silver banners with the words "Happy Birthday" on them. As for the people attending the party, near enough everyone had dressed up and all of them with masks to the point where neither of the two could regonise anyone... Even the President was wearing one, if not for his belly they wouldn't have knowon, everyone surprisingly had made an effort. "So, what do you have mind first, Re--" Kyrie blinked as she looked beside her, Reno was long gone, she frowned, her eyes immediately wandered over to the bar and pretty much, yup, Reno was there already ordering a drink.
Kyrie placed her palm to her forehead and sighed, she decided to just stand there for a while. "Thanks a lot, Reno" she muttered, watching everyone else go about their business.
Azalea on the other hand had been placed by the President's side, after becoming a success she had to remain by the fat asses side like some form of trophy, she found the idea tedious and droll. With each person that walked down those stairs, she had analysed immediately and soon confirmed their identities behind their masks, noting their choice of clothing and knowing instantly the materials used, where each piece of jewelry originated from along with where each outfit had been bought - she was honestly that bored, she saw no reason to be here and was so rudely forced to wear something she was uncomfortable in - her black dress making her appear paler than usual.
Her icy gaze darted over to where the President sat above everyone like some sort of merry king, stuffing his face with food at his personal table. And this buffoon was the head of this entire company. Ridiculous. |

"This is stupid. I don't see why all this is necessary," Rufus mumbled, setting his bow-tie straight with little effort. As always he looked nearly flawless in his tidy white suit and his perfectly tied black bow tie; clip ons were for hooligans and dumb asses. He always preferred the look of a hand-tied tie. "So the old man turns 50... People should be trying to poison him by now for his idiocy. What's worse is I don't understand why I have to bring a date!"
Dezzy shook her head from the other side of the bathroom door, putting on the finishing touches to her costume. "Because your father threatened your inheritance if you didn't show up with a girl at your side... you know if you REALLY wanted to piss him off you should have asked a guy. I know PLENTY of gay guys around here that would have LOVED that," she joked, finishing the last curl in her blond hair. As she excited the room she was met with the sight of one of the most stunning men she knew; she wasn't particularly into blonds (or really it was more accurate to say she didn't really care about guys in general) but she knew a good looking man when she saw one. White was always a good color on him. He looked so sleek and gentlemanly. "Very nice, sir. You dress up well!!"
Rufus turned away from the mirror and smirked. "As do you, Damani. Purple always was a good color on you... though the irony of the angel wings isn't lost on me at all," he shook his head and sighed. While his mind tended to focus on other things, occasionally he realized that he was still a hormonal teenager... Dezzy was a very attractive young woman. The light purple dress had a push up affect on her cleaveage, giving the taller man a decent view of her goods. He shook the thoughts out of his head. Part of his heart belonged to someone else, though he'd never tell who. "Thank you for coming. I know you'd rather be locked in your room with your computers, but socialization is good for you."
"I know that. and I wanted to go... just the guy I wanted to take me didn't ask me..." she frowned slightly before slipping her mask onto her face. She and Rufus didn't often see eye-to-eye, however they had a similar goal of seeing new leadership in the company... and if this was the best way to keep peace between them, she would roll with it. Besides there was a certain red head she was anxious to see.
Together they headed down to the main lobby where all the action was going on. Everyone seemed to laugh and joke and be getting along. "Well this is... eventful..." Rufus groaned, leading Dezzy down the stairs. "Get ready for the shitstorm when it happens... because nothing goes smoothly... ever." |

___________________________
___________________________ Kyrie soon smiled and chuckled softly at Reno's sudden disappearance. "Absolutely typical," she murmured, adjusting her pearl white mask, smiling warmly as so spoke "Reno will be Reno." She held her hands together as she wandered through the crowds, watching as others enjoyed themselves and some certain others definitely seemed rather 'cosy' with each other, she couldn't help but smile at the sight - even if some of those people were ones she absolutely hated with a passion. Reno on the other hand was chatting up the barmaid though was greeted with a swift slap with his next line, Kyrie turned her head as she heard an audible yeowch! which didn't stop her at all when it came to bursting out laughing while her form nearly passed another couple, a particularly young but pretty girl dressed in purple and a white suited male, neither of them could she place her finger on.
Reno grumbled something at the bar lady before grabbing the alcohol and glasses before looking around. "Dammit, where'd she go?" he cursed, barging through the crowds to find his friend, though it wasn't long until he spotted two dots of white, no one else had exactly dressed in that colour and neither would they dream of doing so, white was just... so plain to him and not exactly fitting for an event like this unless people were getting married - he questioned his friend's tastes sometimes. As he neared closer, Reno couldn't help but recognise... It was obvious that the taller bloke was Rufus Shinra himself, and the other... there was something about the female that he felt a feeling of familiarity. He knew how much Kyrie disliked the President's son, and this was a masked party so... he decided to call her by her middle name which she never told anyone.
"Hey! Nevaeh! I gotcha drinks, yo!" he smirked, heading towards her which in turn caused her to stop in front of the blonde couple and turn, she returned the smirk but softly. "Ah! So that's where you went, you should know better to run off like that, Red," she chuckled, waving a finger at him, unaware that the couple was now behind them. Reno just shrugged, handing her a glass of white wine typical smoothly. "Yeah yeah, though it don't take a genius to spot you, Nev!" he smirked coolly, running a hand through his hair as he swigged his beer, though through the corner of his eye, he couldn't help but pay attention to the blonde in purple. |

___________________________
Rufus idly spoke to the collegues that recognized him and vaguely introduced his date for the evening as a friend. No one seemed to recognize the blond, but then again Dezzy didn't leave her cave too often. To him this was boring... He hated these types of parties, but for the son and heir of the President to not even show up? That would have caused a ruckus. He wasn't so easily lost in a crowd as many others.
Dezzy however was having a blast. No one recognized her and she gave little hint to who she was as she danced with various men that she barely recognized... of course it was part of her side-job working for Rufus that she actually know who was wearing what and why, so it didn't take long of course... Eventually she ended up standing next to Rufus listening to some dull conversation, playing her part like a good girl before she heard a familiar voice. "Yeah yeah, though it don't take a genius to spot you, Nev!" She turned her head, automatically recognizing that drawl and that red hair. Reno wasn't hard to hide, and he looked dashing in his suit... even if it was a bit messy. That's part of what she liked about him so much, besides the fact he knew all the best ways to get out of the building and they had the best adventures.
Rufus also heard Reno and was about to turn to scold him on his loudness, when he spotted the most beautiful white dress he had ever seen; while he didn't recognize the woman wearing it, he knew she had to be as beautiful as the dress. It was distracting. The girl seemed to be talking to his red-haired employee though... what would any woman see in that troublemaker? While he was loyal he was also obnoxious.
"Geeze Reno, way to be louder than the rest of the crowd," his blond date stated with no loss of sarcasm in her voice. Dezzy wore an impish grin that Rufus had seen very few times in the close to 10 years he had known her. She seemed to hold some sort of affection for the Turk, and Rufus wasn't sure what to make of that |

___________________________
___________________________ Reno was in the middle of downing his drink until a familiar voice reached his ears, Kyrie looked on in surprise as he began to choke, coughing and spluttering while she patted his back. "Whoa, take it easy there, Red," she couldn't help but smile as he made the most unattractive sounds as he choked. Sighing, she placed a hand to her forehead as he composed himself while she repeated her famous line. "Reno will be Reno," she smiled with a chuckled before lowering her hand and watching the Turk approach the two - whilst being dragged along that is. Reno pretty much had the biggest grin you had ever seen as he stopped in front of them, Kyrie copied while smiling at the two new people.
"Well, hell! Hardly recognised you there for a moment, Dez!" he grinned, giving her a light but playful shove whilst holding the neck of his bottle in his hand whilst Kyrie placed her wine glass down on a nearby table. Remembering he had left her out, he gestured over to Kyrie, grinning. "Oh, Dezzy this is Nevaeh by the way! A good friend o' mine! Took me a while to drag her outta here, careful, she bites," he snickered, winking back at Kyrie before focusing on the lovely blonde female before him, the brunette couldn't help but tilt her head... what was that wink? She knew it had some familiarity... Reno was hiding something. Though instead of pondering it now, she shook her thoughts from her head before smiling at the two blondes.
"Ah... my apologies, it's a pleasure to meet you, Miss Dezzy, I must say you look lovely tonight," she smiled knowingly, looking over at Reno, mimicking his smirk "Reno here has told me a lot about you, a little too much if you ask me," she placed a hand to her lips as she giggled softly, her voice held a kindness only reserved for friends of Reno's, her attention then turned to the male "And this must be your date, a pleasure to meet you."
With that, she held out her hand in hopes to greet him with the shake of the hand, Reno saw this and his grin widened. Oh, she is gonna kill me when she finds out...
Deciding to play his game a little longer, he turned to Dezzy, speaking in his usual silken smooth voice. "So, I take it this guy beat me to asking you to this fine event then?" he smirked, putting on his best charm "Nevvie here had no one asking her so I decided to be... merciful," he chuckled, dodging a slap from the white clad female "Hah! 'Cause o' shit like that! The guys are terrified of her!"
Kyrie just rolled her eyes. "Easy coming from someone like you, Red," she scoffed, glaring playfully at him. Reno just stuck his tongue out back at her before looking at the two blondes, an evil idea hatching in his devilish mind of his.
"Yeah yeah! Hey! Since we're kind of an odd match, hows about we switch dates?!" |

___________________________
Dezzy smiled. "Actually I was WAITING for you to ask but you never did so I decided to go with my coworker instead," she knew vaguely of Rufus and Kyrie's dislike of one another; she had watched enough of their all-out battles in the cafeteria on camera to know that this would either be a lot of fun or a total disaster... still... eventually they needed to patch it up... "Ooh Reno that's a wonderful idea!! How about it guys? What do you think?"
Rufus looked down at her and then looked at Reno like they were a bit crazy. He didn't even know who this girl was... either way the whole point of coming to all of this with Dezzy was for information purposes regarding their mission... either way, he supposed it wouldn't hurt. "I guess, if you're okay with that ma'am," he shook her hand and smiled at her. "By the way that dress looks very lovely on you. I always loved the color white myself..."
Dezzy winked at Reno and linked her arm in his. "Sounds delightful! If you need us I'm sure we'll be over at the bar!" She literally started to drag her red-headed friend away. "If this goes the way I think this is going to go, I owe you a kiss." |

___________________________
___________________________ Kyrie blinked in surprise, looking over at the tall red-haired Turk, her brows furrowing into a frown as she shook her head whilst crossing her arms. "Honestly? Just like that? You're practically giving me over to a complete stranger," she protested, though she didn't exactly want to ruin Reno's company with this young lady, so sighing, she reluctantly agreed. "Very well, you kids have fun now," she smiled typically, shaking her head as Reno was practically dragged off by his new date, once again she repeated...
"Reno will be Reno."
At the bar, Reno was already downing a new bottle whilst smirking as he leaned forward and spoke in a hushed tone. "So you knew it was her, huh?" he grinned, referring to Kyrie as he looked over where the two now awkwardly stood together, he smirked smugly at the young blonde before winking "I think I'mma need that kiss to resurrect me, once she's done with me I may as well be picking my own grave." He let out a snort before watching various others dance but only for a while until his attention turned to Dezzy again.
Meanwhile, Kyrie remained standing there, occasionally looking over at the tall blonde before he finally spoke to her about her attire. "O-oh! I... uhm, thank you," she smiled warmly, dusting some imaginary dirt off her dress as she looked away awkwardly "It is a lovely colour, so pure... innocent, my father always loved it on me." It was then her eyes locked onto the red and blonde haired couple, shaking her head once more. "It seems Reno has finally met his match," she chuckled, looking over at Rufus "A shame he's stolen your date for the evening."
She was only teasing as she stood at his side before watching the rest of her co-workers dance a waltz. |

___________________________
Rufus didn't really mind Dezzy leaving with Reno. He figured if the Turk showed up she was bound to do it anyways. Her little crush wasn't really a secret around the office. Everyone knew about it, with the exception of possibly Reno.
"It's okay. She doesn't socialize a whole lot... I've known her since we were kids... we don't see eye to eye most of the time, but I trust her more than I trust anyone else in my life. They're a good match," he nodded and gave a small smile before looking around at the other dancers. "Ahem... would you care to dance? I'm a bit out of practice, but I guess there's no time like the present to get reacquainted..."
Dezzy giggled and nodded. "Oh this is so worth it! ooh look he's asking her to dance!!" she giggled and clapped like a little child. She was having too much fun watching the awkward couple who didn't even know each other. "So you think she'll figure out before midnight when everyone takes their masks off??"
She untangled some of her blond hair out of her feathered mask. "I'm glad he convinced me to come here. I think he just felt bad because I was moping and wouldn't focus on my work because I didn't get to have fun like everyone else... but now I get to hang out with you too!!" she really was happy to be able to spend time with him. He always put her in a better mood, no matter how bad her day was. She just wished she got to see him more. "They make a cute couple... ever think we could weasel them together without masks on?" |

___________________________
___________________________ As if on cue, the orchestra changed their choice of song and at that moment and a woman began to sing a rather romantic song for a slow dance. She then jolted slightly as he asked her to dance. Say what!? Kyrie blinked, slightly confused as she looked over at him. Was he drunk already or something?
"Uhmm... may I ask why? I mean, they're are much prettier and graceful girls here," Kyrie chuckled, though it wasn't that she was a bad dancer, in fact, she adored the sport even going as far as using such moves on the battle field though she worried in case she was a bit too much for the blonde but she knew she was just making excuses, clearing her throat, she smiled and nodded politely.
"I don't see why not, I suppose that's why we're here, huh?" she smiled in his direction before somewhat awkwardly taking his hand and letting him lead her onto the dancefloor, in the center she faced him still with a smile as her other hand placed itself on his shoulder before allowing him to lead the dance.
Reno, on the other hand, nearly fell out of his chair at the sight. "Oh shit! They're actually going for it! Ah man, I better get started on my will! Leave all my bacon to Nixie," she snorted, taking a swig of his drink before turning his attention to Dezzy, offering her some more nibbles. He laughed at her words. "I dunno, Kyrie's a smart one but even she looked oblivious when seeing him, you'd think she know as he's the only other guy I know that wears white the way she does," he snickered, already knowing what could happen when the masks come off "she'll probably kill me and then kill him, or both at the same time."
He raised a curious brow. "Cute? Pah, I don't think Kyrie would agree, and I don't think dating would be possible, that girl is stttuuuuuubboooooorn!"

___________________________
Rufus blinked for a moment. "Well, frankly," he lead her to the dance floor and began the slow dance with her. "I don't find most of these girls attractive... they're too fake and unoriginal... They only want men for their money and good looks, not for anything else underneath... and that's not good enough for me."
It was true. He had never found a girl he truly found interesting until a certain someone had come into his life- while the girl he was attracted to was stubborn and unusually cruel to him, he found it refreshing not to have someone swoon at his every word. He found women that did that very annoying. "You seem... different than all of them. Stronger, original. It really is nice."
Dezzy giggled and smiled at them. She knew Rufus better than even he realized. He really wasn't a cruel person in the end, even though he had a tendency to be cold and uncaring about the things most people loved and enjoyed... that wasn't his fault. He was raised this way. "Nixie will much appreciate the bacon. I think I can dig up a phoenix down though, if she doesn't slaughter you too badly. Ooooh or maybe!! I can turn you into a half-robot or something cool and you could be my slave! Do all my dirty work for me. Then I don't have to mop the lab floors or anything anymore!" Dezzy smirked at him devillishly. "Hehe sometimes I think I should be wearing that mask, not you!"
"Don't worry Reno. I won't let her kill you. I'd have no friends if she did after all, and then I'd be lonely and reclusive again," she nodded and offered him a hand. "Dance with me?" |

___________________________
___________________________ Rufus led and Kyrie followed, occasionally engaging in conversation from time to time. As he spoke of women and only wanting men for looks or money, she couldn't help be reminded of a certain someone, she looked up at where the President was, no doubt he was up there with him looking down at everyone, in rank and in a literal sense. "Forgive me for sounding rude, but that sounds a lot like the President and his son, while the President is a disgusting perverted moneybags, women still throw themselves at him... at best for his money or to keep their jobs here," she groaned, not particularly wanting to speak of such a matter though she couldn't help herself "... who knows how many bastards he has around the world... Though, as for his son, yes... he is handsome, which I will admit I feel sorry for him there, but not when it seems as if he's following in his father's footsteps."
As they progressed with their dancing, she instinctively placed her head on his shoulder like most females would do during a dance like this, she spoke only for him to hear - not that anyone else could hear over the music. "Such sayings could cost me to lose my job, forgive me, we hardly know each other and I'm rambling," she smiled half-heartedly, appreciating his kind words.
Meanwhile, Reno sat there, still watching the show with interest. "Ohhhhhhhh! Slick move, Ky, head on the blondie's shoulder, I like it!" he chuckled, stuffing more nibbles in his mouth, Dezzy began to speak and his attention turned to her, a look of mock surprise on his face before he let off a smirk. "Oh, so you into robots, huh? I knew you liked technology, Dez, but that's taking your obsession too far," he snickered, flicking her cheek playfully "besides, as I am, I give good warm hugs! Can't get that off a robot!"
He stuck his tongue out at her but then upon the mention of a dance, he couldn't help but stiffen up a bit. "D-Dancing?" he said quite nervously, rubbing the back of his neck "Man, the only dancin' I know is the macarena and the hokeypokey! Or whatever that dance is called!" he grimanced, a little flushed though looking at that sweet face, how could he resist. Half groaning, he gave in as he took her hand and started his way towards the dance floor "Alright, alright, but you owe me for this one! I demand tribute!"

Rufus blinked for a minute, sighing as he listened to her. Despite being slightly insulted as he was mentioned, he realized the girl didn't realize who he was... and he was fine with that. It was nice to have a moment without being "President Shinra's son". He nodded and smiled. "Word has it he's got quite a few bastards sitting around. At least half of them work for the damn company. He's never been good at keeping it in his pants" he said bitterly, shaking his head. His father's womanizing ways disgusting. Rufus himself preferred to stick with one woman if he ever could. His father's lust for women was part of the reason his mother was dead. "Word has it though that Rufus Shinra isn't following in his father's footsteps. I just hear whispers and rumors though, mostly from Dezzy. Don't worry. I often think these things myself. Most days I wish I could get out of here, but I don't really have a choice but to work for the company... Just remember, not everyone around here is what they seem..."
He sometimes hated what he did, but at the same time he felt it was his lot in life. Someday though his father would be dead and he would bring this company much more glory than the fat bastard ever did.

He sometimes hated what he did, but at the same time he felt it was his lot in life. Someday though his father would be dead and he would bring this company much more glory than the fat bastard ever did.
The song slowed down as she rested her head on his shoulder and he smiled, holding her a bit closer and swaying to the music. "It's been a long time since I actually got to enjoy a dance with someone. I usually don't go to these things... I much prefer just sitting and reading instead if I can help it."
Dezzy giggled. "Well I can cook... I make these wonderful things... I take bacon strips and cover them in PANCAKE BATTER! They're glorious!!" she grin and awkwardly rested her hands on the taller boy's shoulders. She had never really danced before so she just swayed with him on the floor looking every bit of the awkward sigh teenager she was. "Hey, Reno? You know things about the world and people right?" |

___________________________ Kyrie seemed to be staring off into the distance as she followed his steps and listened to his voice, a part of her couldn't help but feel it sounded slightly familiar... then again, she had never really heard people's normal speaking voices except for Reno's, most people just shouted these days and there was quite a lot of difference between the two. A small sigh escaped her as she just shook her head whilst lifting it off his shoulder, beginning to feel slightly uncomfortable though found herself blinking as her body pulled deeply into his. "That doesn't surprise me," she said rather bitterly as she looked away, her eyes deeply solaced behind her crystallized mask, the glittering gems giving her blue orbs the same twinkling effect.
Behind her mask, she frowned, still taking steps though shook her head once more. "I highly doubt that... as it's as you say, they're just rumors, rumors don't always end up being true... they're there to give people something to talk about so their lives are a little less droll," she mumbled with a tut, she couldn't tell him why he hated Shinra so, after all... he was a mere stranger.
Though back to Reno, he found himself somewhere on the dance floor, her deft hands placed carefully on Dezzy's hips as they just swayed side to side awkwardly, getting a few people's un-amused glances but he didn't care, it was all about having fun not how good you could dance! At the mere mention of the blonde girl's invention, he couldn't help but drool a little. "Oh man, that sounds gooooood! Maybe dip 'em in syrup or apple sauce! Ooh boy, I can taste it now!" he said in a slight daze, imagining all the ways to eat such a delectable treat!
It was then her next words caused him to smile, she really was a caged bird, wasn't she? "Heh, don't worry pigeon! I know enough stories about them to help you sleep at night," he grinned, comfortingly patting her back.
