Lucien laughed a little at the comment she gave Lute, then leaned close to the virtuoso. "It's probably a compliment, good job." He whispered before tapping his friend on the back and giving him a huge grin. The summoner returned his attention to the three ladies. "I'm from Falone." Lucien stated in reply to the question. One of the girl's raised her eyebrows. It was posh city, one of the reasons he had left. Memories of his parents forcing him to attend all sorts of lessons came back and he had to bite back a scowl, that place was the epitome of boring and he didn't regret leaving it even one bit. "It's not as grand as people make it out to be." He gave them a grin, then focused his eyes on Leah. "Now that we've told you where we're from, I'll have to ask, are you from heaven? Because I think I'm looking at an angel." The girl stared at him before choking back a laugh. Well that was a cheesy pickup line, in fact, it was so bad it was kind of funny. She laughed a little but waved it off. "So are you three students? What kind of art do specialize in?" Leah winked. "Artists are always so [i]hot[/i]." Gods, Lucien's mind began working in overdrive "Syed's a uh, a sculptor, yeah a sculptor who makes awesome things out of machines." He began stammering under her melting stare. "L-Lutes a musician and I'm part of the theater group." The lies didn't sound so bad, right? One of the girls sighed dreamily before leaning towards Syed. She ran a finger down his shoulder, "so what kind of sculptures do you make?" They were so dead, Dyn save them all. --- [img]http://i.imgur.com/ZEQcnsM.png[/img] Dallia introduced them to a beautiful woman named Rose and the woman seemed to recognize Trixie. Xan chuckled as she watched the prankster introduce herself so energetically. It helped ease the atmosphere and in a way settled her nerves. "Pleasure to meet you," she stated with a nod. Her eyes flitted from the student council president to all the students mingling and enjoying themselves in the background. Many of them had smiles on their faces and laughter was present at every turn. Despite her negative on view on Tobias, the party was generous. Rose mentioned something about another ball, the people at the academy must have been into these sorts of things then? Everything looked so pristine and while she felt a little out of her element she was determined to enjoy the evening with her friends. "We were just planning to look around, but aside from that we're doing well." She gave the woman a smile. "What about yourself?" Wait, it was polite to return the question right? Unless, they were supposed to mind their business. Then again, despite all the fancy decor the woman in front of them seemed friendly and Trixie appeared to like her quite a lot.
