"Don't think so," Gaius said. "I just want to know how he got on with Adriana."

Ooc: I'm gonna lurk for a while, you two can have your moment ;) I'll be back when muddy is online
Gaius took Thalia by the hand and led her through the doors. Inside was a marble hall, full of people dancing to music eminating from an orchestra at the end. Together they walked down the steps, listening as their names were announced. Then they started dancing. Gaius wasn't much of a dancer, but let Thalia lead him through the paces.
Adriana chose to wear a light blue-colored dress, that looked about as long as a gown, reaching below her ankles. It exposed some part of her back, but wasn't strap-less.
Gaius brought his face closer to Thalia's. From here he could smell her perfume as they danced togethher.
"By the way, I've found out how to lighten the load of your punishment a fair bit," he said to her.
Rex huffed as he flew around the corner that led to the hall. He saw Adriana waiting to the side of the doors, and smartened himself up. okay, nothing to be nervous about he thought to himself as he walked up to her. "H-hey. Shall we?" He said, holding his hand out.
Adriana smiled and took his hand. She nodded at him, feeling a bit nervous about this. "Hey, just so you know, I'm not that great a dancer," she told him, keeping the conversation rolling.
He looked at her, "then were gonna look like fools together" he laughed and they entered the ball.
Adriana laughed, "Well this should be fun then!" The music filled her ears as she gazed at the partially filled ballroom.
"Really? H-How?" Thalia asked.
"Two things," Gaius replied. "First, channel the slightest bit of Ignis or Aqua around us, to alleviate the temperature problems. Secondly, I'm going to go with you tonight instead of Rex." He was starting to get the hang of the dancing. He looked at Thalia. She really did look amazing tonight.
Thalia smiled. "You'd really go with me?" she asked. Just then she started the slightest bit of Ignis and Aqua channeling. Unfortunately for her, a Magister walked by the door.
Luckily the channeling was too soft to be felt properly, but the Magister turned his head.
"Yeah, I'd go with you. I'd cross the desert in one night for you," he replied.
"Gaius......" Thalia said before blushing.
After dancing for a while, red and Adriana looked for Gaius and Thalia. Rex ran up to them and got between, holding his arm out "may I?"
