Did he have any idea who he was talking to? Royal guard or not, there was a [i]murder[/i], not a drunk! For a mortal he was taking all of this rather calmly, and had absolutely no sense of urgency whatsoever. Eris would've been furious, but he had to admit that getting his bearings together took up much of his focus. Maybe he had given himself too much credit, it had been some time since he shifted and it clearly required some fine tuning. He'd have to fix that during his time here. Finally straightening himself out, he ignored the sensation in his chest as he managed to level a glare onto the guard. Biting back the urge to yell, he opted for something of a calmer response. [color=ccff99]"I didn't say drunk. If it was a drunken student, no one would even look in their direction considering this is the first taste of pseudo-freedom in their lives and it's inevitable that they're indulging themselves. I wouldn't have come in such a rush to report an inevitability to a [i]royal guard[/i],"[/color] His voice was low but much steadier now, no longer leaning on the wall completely. [color=ccff99]"In case you didn't hear me clearly, there has been a [i]murder[/i]."[/color] It was hard not to be annoyed, but he didn't appreciate not being taken seriously. Pushing himself off the wall entirely, he started walking in the direction of the ballroom. [color=ccff99]"Assuming my mage and Plant Boy have managed to keep the coast clear, we better hurry before more people notice,"[/color] He insisted, quietly hoping Alderman hadn't strangled the kid or made things worse.
