Re: Port Vega: Meet & Greet Dinner (Posting Order: Aurora, Mara, Lightning Rod, Photon, Random NPCs)

(Photon)
Was still in bodyguard mode since that is what Aurora wanted him for right now.? ¡°Good with dessert pretty boy, she will let you know when it is time.? For now, simply enjoy the fair that is placed before you.¡±? He said doing his best not to be cold but he was already in a mood for some reason.? He just simply didn¡¯t feel right and couldn¡¯t put his finger on it.? Maybe it was simply time to press his relationship with Aurora a bit further.? They had been together long enough for her to know he wasn¡¯t going anywhere and she was the one he wanted.? He couldn¡¯t make it any plainer if he stenciled it across the sky.? Yet, something was pressing on him that he couldn¡¯t shake as he sat with this group.? He looked at them thinking perhaps this would be the group that would take over the city with.? Something that would make him clash with his family and yet he knew that he had to deal with them at some point as he wasn¡¯t willing to wait for his father to hand him the keys to the city.? He was going to have to make his own.
He didn¡¯t try to over hear the chatter between Mara and Aurora.? He wasn¡¯t interested even in girl talk right now, which was his fav.? It wasn¡¯t telepathy but knowing when someone liked him or someone else did help him out tremendously even momentarily some days.
(Aurora, Jordie, Liza, Misty)
The trio noticed Devi speak to Aurora then leave.? Jordie knew that she would need to be removed from the data base.? He would take care of it after the meal.
Aurora felt the shift in Photon.? She reached a hand over to his arm and once he leaned in, she quietly asked, ¡°You okay?¡±? Before he could answer, Mara was speaking to her.? Aurora looked over at Lightening Rod and simply shrugged.? ¡°I think he wants to impress you.? He is a youngest whose breeches are too big.? He will learn to control his, powers and emotions¡or he will be dismissed from the group.? He is unfortunately trying to impress the wrong person.¡± She said as she indicated Misty, who was trying desperately to get the lads attention.
Misty simply gave Photon a nod, before turning to Lightening Rod, ¡°Aurora will let us, or rather you, know what your next step is before the end of the night.? The rest of us have been with her for a little while now.? She doesn¡¯t like showoffs, though, so might want to keep that in mind.¡±
[Mara]
"You're certainly right about that," Mara answered to Aurora's indication of wrong impressions.? The boy indeed seemed to teetering on the edge, but whether it was excitement, fear or something else entirely is not something she was fully vested in finding out.? The amount of guests staying was already whittling down, so if had to admit to herself, was a bit disappointing.? Was this all the city had to offer in terms of competition?? She could easily fillet every single one of these newcomers without breaking a single sweat.? Drip poison in their food.? Jordie and Liza she was somewhat familiar with, though on a surface level at best.? But she didn't know Misty nor this young blood either.? She was sure Aurora wouldn't miss either if she ever gave Mara the command.
"I suppose we shall see, won't we?"? The last part was said mainly to herself, but she knew her friend understood clear enough.? With that, she returned to her food, every now and then her eyes flicking over to the end of the table.
(Lightning Rod)
Roddy frowned slightly at Misty's comment that Aurora didn't like show-offs and that he should keep that in mind.? "How'm I supposed to impress her then?? Or anyone else?" The blond youth picked grumpily at his food.? "I just wish she'd start talking about what she has in mind.? And what we're likely to get out of it."
He glanced up the table at where the ones who seemed to be top of the pack were sitting.? The one called Photon seemed distracted for some reason, as if chewing something over in his head that he was having trouble resolving.? Aurora and Mara, on the other hand, were carrying on some quiet conversation.? And Roddy got the distinct impression that at least part of it was about him.
It was hard for him not to stare. Aurora was, he had to admit, fairly impressive.? But the snake-eyed woman unsettled him.? He got the distinct impression that she could - and would - kill him without a moment's consideration if Aurora said the word, yet he still wanted to get closer to her, to be able to gaze into those lidless eyes and get the full impact of her scrutiny.? His skin tingled all over at the very thought of it.
