Anna smiled and gave a nod, "I did, but it's nice to have an actual introduction. It keeps things friendly." As Basil held out the rock Anna obligingly took it and took a few steps back, holding the small stone in the palm of her hand. "This far enough?"

She would have glanced back to see how Gunner was fairing with his Ward so far but she wasn't sure if she wanted to see Gabby oogle him, and she probably would. Moroi guys didn't get particularly muscular, especially the royals that ran in Gabby's group, so a Dhampir guy was probably... Well, she wasn't going to go there. She had a Ward of her own to be distracted with rather than with Gunner.

She was pleased with her ward this time, it seemed that Basil was relatively easy going for a royal judging by her lack of prudishness when Anna had introduced herself. That was rare in a royal... at least the girl had smiled and introduced herself. It gave her hope that maybe their Guardian / Ward relationship wouldn't be a miserable one.

Sebastian opened his eyes as he arched an eyebrow momentarily before chuckling and closing them again. He hadn't expected such a simple question and it helped lighten his mood somewhat though his hands still shook and that dark irritation still lurked behind his eyes. "Mm... for such a simple question it doesn't have an easy answer." He hesitated, "I've never actually thought about it before..."

His eyes came open again, "I think... Gold maybe? It's the color auras turn when people are around someone who makes them truly happy... It's the color that I associate with people who are madly in love... in sync with each other. It makes me jealous but at the same time their auras are so bright and warm that it kinda radiates to the people around them..." He coughed, "Nevermind..." He grimaced, "That sounded corny. Perhaps I should have said black... like my soul," he put on a deep and ominous voice when he joked in the last bit.

"How about you? What's your color?"
