Come All Ye Lads and Lasses Tis Time To Celebrate! (TAG: ANYONE)

Cedric couldn't help but laugh, he knew that when they would be alone Garrett would make him pay for that evening, but it was so funny to see him so embarrassed!
"Really full of surprises!" Cedric smiled at Nita, then turned to the others "Details.." he chuckled at Kayley's statement then laughing again at Soma's words: shy and cute? He smiled and turned to Garrett to see his reaction. That evening was really full of surprises!
When Akhesa moved behind them he followed all her moves, he couldn't deny but be a little surprised by her question and by Soma's answer.
"I don't know if we should be honored by your choice..." he turned his attention to Soma "We are surrender by so many lovely ladies... does this mean that we are the fairest?" he laughed giving a slight nudge at Garrett.

Garrett would have liked to disappear in that moment: on one hand there was his brother who kept talking inappropriately and on the other hand there was the Martell's siblings who kept hitting on them - or was just an impression? -
He crossed his arms and sighed as Soma identified him as shy and cute, why?! He crossed his arms and sighed, he could feel his brother's look on him so - just to not look rude - Garrett gave Soma a quick smiled then moved his look away, wondering when he would be free to punch his brother for that evening.
As Akhesa moved near them and Kayley, he raised an eyebrow as they spoke. What kind of people he got into?! He sighed again and turned his attention to Cedric who was talking inappropriately again. He replied at his nudge giving him a stronger one, why?!

Nita laughed by Cedric's reply off Soma's choice, but she also noticed that Garret seemed uncomfortable. Nita smiled toward Akhesa as she commented her cheeks. In fact, she atually felt tired. And a bit emberassed. Did she really look like that she was too drunk? She blushed.

"Maybe some fresh air could help," she said after a while.

Garrett seemed ready to sink into the floor if it meant getting away from Soma and Cedric's teasing. Kayley just smiled. Some people might have found Garrett's anti-social tendencies to be a bit off-setting, but she found them charming. She actually found his bitter sarcasm a little humorous. However, she noticed that Soma and Akhesa were looking at her. It took her a moment to remember who Elia Martell was. She had read all about the history of the royal families. Elia had been murdered and raped by the Mountain, and he killed all her children as well. Oberyn managed to get him to confess to the crime before he got his head smashed in. Apparently, it had been quite a gruesome sight. However, the fun spark in Akhesa's eyes soon returned as she asked Kayley to dance. "Oh, um, okay," Kayley replied after a moment's hesitation. She wondered if the dances at Winterfell were the same as the ones here. And while she was good at dancing, Akhesa seemed to be a pro, the way she spun on her toes and moved from side to side. Kayley just hoped she could keep up with her.

Akhesa laughed between the reactions of the twins and the adorable little Nita not to mention her now soon to be dance partner it was a very fun evening she couldn't help but enjoy it. Setting her glass aside no longer caring for it she gently patted Nita's shoulder "You are already outside dear lady, hehe perhaps what you need is a cute peasant boy" she teased before chuckling moving to step around to face Kayley as she continued to smirk "Do not worry little wolf, I shall lead" nodding her head at that as she held out her hand to Kayley to take her into the dance.

(Jim in the hizouse y'all)

Jim had to admit, he liked parties just as much as the townsfolk he so often mingled with did. Odds jobs as a slightly anonymous but certainly charming young man had earned him a few secret invites to some pretty, eh, "indelicate" parties. It hadn't taken much of a struggle for him to come peer about. The believed-slave of Kida's abscence was hardly noticed. Upon mentioning to her, quietly and discretely, that some of the younger and more wild of the nobles had begun disappearing, Kida had rolled her eyes and muttered, "Follow them." Thus, here he was.

He took up a mug of something pungent smelling and pretended to sip. The trick was to act drunk, but be perfectly aware, a skill he had mastered long ago. The alcohol never touched his lips. The people partied on. He raised an eyebrow at Prince Soma's strip, not at all surprised to see him and Sinbad here as well, and bothering a young maid, no surprise their either. Ahkesa Martell, no doubt the house of this harmless party, earned a side-eye for her mention of the House Targaryen, but when nothing of insult was said, Jim continued to slip through crowds as if he was going somewhere, never a wallflower attracting attention, nor a dancer doing the same.

For the time, as always, he was unnoticed. Or so it seemed.

Madeline's curiosity had won another time. Instead of returning in her room she followed some of the young nobles out of palace, wondering where they were going. She could believe that they were going outside... in the city... with the mobs! Usually Madeline, a Lannister, would have been outside with at least a guard, but not tonight. For tonight she would have act like a 'normal' person, hiding her name and ancestors.
She watched everything with great interest: people were dancing, drinking, singing... it seemed fun after all. She could easily recognize some of the guest of the coronation mixed with the folks, sharing the fun with them.
She continued to walk with her head in the clouds, smiling time to time to herself at the different scenes she could see. It was when she bumped into a boy that Maddie finally returned to the ground.
"I'm sorry!" she quickly said trying to clean the mess she made, unfortunately the drink that the boy was holding spilled everywhere on them.

"If I'm to get a boy, then he has to sing 'The Bear and Maiden Fair' for me," Nita said to Akhesa and chuckled. The Bear and Maiden Fair was Nita's favorite song. Nita barely noticed a Young boy among the crowd, but when she blinked he was gone.

Soma chuckled softly at the other twin’s comment of them being the fairest, tilting his head at the twins. “It would seem that you are. Surrounded by so many ladies and getting my attention.” Soma remarked, winking playfully at the twins. It was humorous to watch the twins, seeing that the twin that had joined in on the group; was grinning quite a lot at his quiet brother. It seemed that he was enjoying the embarrassment of his twin quite a lot. “No need to be shy. I don’t bite…much.” He chuckled a bit as his eyes glittered with dark amusement and thrill. If the twin was going to be a challenge, then he wasn’t going to be helping his case one bit. Just like Naveen Greyjoy. Oh how Soma desired challenges and enjoyed the ones who seemed so spirited like the other twin. He grinned lightly as he noticed the shy twin nudging back the other a bit more roughly.

"I'm not... shy..." Garret needed to point it out, it seemed like the whole situation was going out of his hands "I think only that my brother drunk too much and we need to go back at our apartments..." it was the occasion to finally leave without causing too much troubles. He didn't like how things were turning and Soma was becoming a little too much creepy for him.
"Good continuation"He made a few steps away holding his brother, but Cedric laughed and took him back into the group.

"I'm not drunk!" Cedric laughed "And we CAN stay a little more." he said watching his brother. He knew that Garrett was trying to run away, avoiding all the human contacts. Bt he needed to meet new people and make new acquaintances.

(OOCL eheheh, be afraid 8D *huggles poor Garret* xD)

Soma laughed a bit as he put his hands up and waved them a bit. slightly in defense. "I was teasing you." he simply remarked, flashing the young man a light grin. He knew that he was making the young twin very uncomfortable. It wasn't hard to notice due to his forced expression and body language. The Martell was just a bit sadistic in seeing how long the twin would last. Not for that long it seemed. He slightly smirked as the twin tried to leave the group with his brothre, who just pulled him back in laughing. "You must enjoy yourself just like your brother. Converse. Interact." He remarked, shrugging his shoulders as he moved his hand around at the surrounding area.

((*joining the hug* hehehe!   ))

Garrett snorted and crossed his arms as Cedric pulled him back in the group. "I don't think I had drunk enough to be like Cedric.." he replied a bit sarcastic "One of us has to stay sober to bring the other at home..."
Cedric turned to Soma then to Garrett, nodding at Soma's words. Seemed like both of them were enjoying to 'torture' Garrett. "Ooh... shut up!" he chuckled "There's nothing wrong in having some fun... Am I wrong?" he asked giving an accomplice smile to Soma.

Soma snickered, rolling his eyes playfully at hearing the twin's sarcastic reply. "Oh come now. He doesn't seem to be that drunk." he remarked, inspecting the twin named Cedric, not really seeing him as a complete drunk. Maybe a bit influenced. But that was all that Soma could gather from his antics and appearance. He laughed out in pure delight, shaking his head quickly at this. "Is it that hard to drag back a drunk relative or friend back home? Didn't seem too hard for me some times." he added with a witty smirk. Some then nodded his head to Cedric. "You are not wrong in the least."

"Little wolf." It seemed like everyone thought Kayley was little, no matter where she went. She tried not to get in a tizzy over it though. Akhesa meant it affectionately. Then again, everything she said seemed to be with affection. She was just so pleasant to everyone. Kayley wondered how she did it. But she tried not to think too much. Dancing and thinking were hard to do at the same time. As she spun around, she saw Soma talking to Garrett and Cedric, the former twin looking like he wanted nothing more than to leave this place. "Poor Garrett. I wonder how long he'll last," she said, laughing.

Garrett glanced at Soma, wondering how many times he had to carry or he was carried home because of alcohol.
"It's clear that you have more experience than me.." he stated "But if it's a good thing or not; I don't know..." he smiled sightly, in the end who was he for judging others? The only important thing was to be a person of honor, then how he liked to pass his time wasn't his business.

Chel had been standing to the side, doing exactly what she was told to do. Her arms were a bit tired from the heavy platter that she'd been holding. Music was playing loudly and people stumbling around, obviously affected by the wine. She found it particularly amusing how the people of Westeros held their liquor like children. She muttered under her breath and continued to pour goblets of wine. Throughout the nigh she felt as if she had faded and become one with the paintings on the wall. She was just praying for the moment where she could return to her chambers.

At some point a boy stood close to her. She eyed him- finding him vaguely familiar. Ah- He was the boy who trailed behind Kida wherever she went. Probably a servant of some sort. When he collided with another guest she instantly set her tray down, and took a rag and scurried over, scrambling to clean up the mess they'd made.
"Don't, my lady." She lowered her brows and looked up at Madeline. One of the rules she was sure to follow was to never let the nobles clean up their own mess. She widened her eyes as if to tell Jim to pick up a rag as well.

Madeline almost jumped in surprise as one of the servants came to help her with that mess.
"Thank you..." she smiled embarrassed as Chel started to clean, obviously asking to do the same at Jim.
Her whole plan to look like a 'normal' peasant didn't work, since the girl immediately called her 'lady'; probably she saw her around the Red Keep and Maddie could swear to have seen that servant at the castle, probably she worked there.

Jim's eyes flicked between them uncomfortably, mouth surprising dry at the situation which he had not expected. Normally, if Jim was to have happenstance occurrences, they would be planned. Spontaneous conversation was not one of his strong points. Alas, here he was anyways.

"Ah," He smiled with amusement at Chel's less-than-subtle insistence for assistance. "Of course." He grabbed the rag from her pocket, nodding to the Stark lady as he helped mop up. The part of him not frayed around the edges for the unexpected mishap was laughing at what his half-sister would think of his predicament. The thought brought a much more natural smile to his face.

Madeline observed as the two started to clean, the boy seemed some how surprised at the beginning but then he immediately started his job.

"Do you work at the palace?" Maddie asked after a few moments of silence. Maybe they were at the service of house Targaryen or maybe of some lords that came for the event.

Akhesa smiled letting out a little giggle when her dancing partner mentioned the poor mormont boy "Knowing my brother? they both will not last too long against his charm but they will have good fun, Let boys be boys and let girls be girls I say after all you only live once why waste it? in Dorne such things are not uncommon. Westeros is too full of secrets and hiding how one truly feels for my tastes, I am simply here to liven it up" nodding her head at that while she took the man's role in the dance gently leading her partner. Having some fun and twirling her "mmm my first guess was better you move more like one of great cousins then my great aunt, that is a compliment for the Sand Snakes were lovely warrior women in their own different ways. Have you ever thought of learning?"

"Dorne sounds like an interesting place," Kayley commented. That was the most she could say before Akhesa spun her around. But she did mean it. Dorne sounded interesting, and different, from other places she had been. Maybe she could convince her father to take her there one day. Although she was surprised when Akhesa asked if she had ever thought about learning how to fight. "Oh, um.." She stumbled over the question for a moment. She hadn't really told anyone that she wanted to learn how to fight, and she wasn't sure if telling a stranger was the best thing. What if her parents found out? "Oh, well...I think every little girl wants to learn how to fight at some point," she replied as she managed to keep moving her feet in time to the beat. "But only a few actually get up and do it."

"oh hush now... dont be shy about such things, honestly my dear you will not find a better person to tell your secrets to for I am too rich to be paid off, to stubborn to be tortured and too uninterested in intrigue... Consider this dance part of my formal invitation, should you ever wish to venture out from under you parents wing you would be welcome in my homeland" She said with a tone of playfulness in her voice as she continued to dance with the young lady, sneakily pulling her in a bit closer "I couldn't fight, never had the talent for it... my brother on the other hand is a excellent spear man with more then the one he keeps under his pants" chuckling at her own lewd comment "I apologize that might have been too vulgar for you pallette.... simply a bad habit of mine, I speak my mind. I find holding back ones thoughts exhausting and not worth the energy, I find myself a terrible 'lady' but a proud woman. As for the fighting, you never know till you try~"

Akhesa almost seemed to know what Kayley was thinking, and that worried her a little bit. Was she really such an easy book to read? Maybe she would have to work on that. No doubt Odette had seen that in her and that led her to tricking her. She was interested to hear that Soma was a pretty good fighter though. She remembered that Oberyn Martell had been pretty good with a spear as well, and was infamous for coating the tip with venom so that any blow would prove fatal. "Do most people in Dorme speak as freely as you do?" she asked, stumbling for a split second as Akehsa pulled her a little bit closer. "It seems like everyone on this side of the world has secrets." Heck, even Kayley had things she didn't speak about to anyone.

"oh Dorne has its own secret keepers and dealings of course I only think you would get rid of such things far north past the wall or far east into the Dothraki sea. But it is much more accepting of certain things I believe that simply comes from out heritage. After all one does not get founded by a warrior queen without some residual difference between those founded by first men. If you truely want to know all the things you should come, the Water Garden's is the most beautiful place in the world and little Sands and other houses run about everywhere tis like having one grand family" Akhesa chuckled "for better or worse sometimes but tis not truly ever bad. If you wish I could even steal you away from your winter hold, that way tis I that would be in trouble not you" smirking and gently leaning in speaking in a low intimate whisper with her piercing blue eyes gazing upon her "you are very much worth getting into trouble for"

Soma tilted his head to the side, smirking a bit before nodding. "Sure. Let's both think that. Perhaps tonight will give you more experience?" He suggested with a light chuckle, shrugging his shoulders. His blazing molten gold eyes rolled slightly at the comment of having more experience being a good thing or not. His eyes traveled slowly from the twins over the males and females at the party before falling upon them once again, gleaming with a sense of gleefulness and thrill. "I do quite alot of things that are not viewed by most as good. But alas, I has no care. I enjoy my life to the...fullest." Soma remarked, flashing the twins a delighted smile. He then glanced over at his sister dancing with the young stark girl, chuckling a bit at the sight and how close to the two's bodies were while conversing.

Nita felt a bit sorry for Garret, who still seemed uncomfortable while Cedric seemed to have fun. At least she started to feel better while she drank some fresh water. She smiled and said "thank you," to a girl who had given her the water.
