Rosaria smiled to herself. Nuallán was incredibly sweet with his worry for her, but she knew her boundaries and would be fine. However, the continuous actions of the human would not be tolerated again. To truly lay it down, one’s sweet nature had to dissipate into ice. She gave him a warm smile and quickly assured him all would be fine. Afterwards, Nuallán introduced himself and offered his additional instruction, which she appreciated. Next, the geokinetic human began to speak to her delight.

Caelan introduced himself to the group and explained he was 26. [color=00B764][i]So young![/i][/color] She was elated to hear he had some practice with a sword. He was already ahead of the game and could perhaps aid the other two. From the manner of the rambunctious one, she could assume he too came from a background of combat. With the way he had wielded a knife and expected enemies to be surrounding him, she had confidence that his bad behavior could translate quite well. 

However, Sohpie was a tiny one. Rosaria was afraid she might be the least suited for this. The girl‘s mind seemed to be scattered as she took in things around her. It seemed as if she had missed the introductions; or had cowered from it. Rosaria sighed but let it go for now. It was best she let the young girl relax and take things in. After all, this was overwhelming. 

Once they approached the stall, Nuallán again asked her not to worry and she looked at him. 
[color=00B764]”I know, Nuallán. I trust you to do so. You and I are a great team together. I am so lucky to have you to care for me. I can only relent so much with these gems in my care.”[/color]

Rosaria observed as Sophie and Caelan both approached the table. Sophie seemed to enjoy one of the dresses but didn’t ask to buy it. Instead, the kind girl took the time to check up on the dark-skinned boy. Rose appreciated that she wasn’t the only one giving him a chance. She smirked to herself as she heard Caelan asking Nuallán to buy her the dress. Did Caelan have a little crush? She couldn’t help but giggle a little out loud as she turned to face the two men. [color=00B764]”We will certainly buy it for her.”[/color]

She glanced toward the table and scanned it quickly, allowing herself to briefly lose focus on the others. As she finished buying what she wanted, a female voice reached her ears. She glanced over to see Aurora, their spiritual advisor, bounding up to them. Another strong elf to help protect them and the humans was not going to hurt. A delighted smile crossed her face as her expression melted like a kid on Tirrus. [color=00B764]”Of course Aurora. I thank you for accompanying me.”[/color] She smiled and made sure no one else had overheard her and sighed in relief. When the dress was bought, she handed it to Caelan and winked. [color=00B764]”Here you go, handsome.”[/color] 

Rosaria turned to Nuallán and tilted her head to one side. [color=00B764]”Do you fancy anything?”[/color] She then glanced at the other humans. [color=00B764]”If you’re all ready, we can continue now. Aurora, if you like anything, please let me know.”[/color] Then, Rosaria relaxed, although she kept a vigilant eye out for any oncoming danger. [/color]

[color=lightgray]Tigerlily stared with raised eyebrows at Éliane. [color=violet][i]What happened now[/i]?[/color] She turned to glance at the red haired lady and remained stoic. [color=violet][i]What[/i] was she?[/color] Her appearance betrayed much but not enough; there weren’t animalistic traits, no elf ears, and she definitely didn’t have wings. She blinked and turned back to the elf. For now she wouldn’t waste her energy on it, but would keep an eye on the gal. She smiled as she listened and wrapped an arm around her shoulders comfortingly. Her innocence and naivety was refreshing; yet, it allowed people, such as this ginger, to prey upon her. She allowed her friend to continue speaking without interruption. Once finished, she began to reply,

[color=turquoise]”Éliane, it’s great to see you! I’ll save stories for later. But first tell me, what are you doing on this godforsaken island? You are far too good for this shallow den, love.”[/color] She patted her head and turned to the next speaker. She grimaced at the sun but didn’t let her expression fall otherwise. She didn’t have time to ponder; Éliane was now introducing her to the female ginger. Tigerlily smiled sweetly and gave her a kind nod. 

Lizzie Murphy. Pushing it to the back of her head, she turned to Nym. His words caused laughter to bubble out of her. The war. She rolled her eyes at the comment. [color=turquoise]”The war? Don’t get me started, Nym.”[/color] She grinned and then nodded in agreement at the end of his sentence. A cheeky grin split across her face as she added, [color=turquoise]”The dark elves can kiss my tail.”[/color] 

Her mind was racing as she noticed Helio. He had to stare at her as if he had seen a ghost. She wondered what had been going through his mind. Tigerlily watched breathlessly for a moment while her mind slipped away. [color=violet][i]No, stay present…[/i][/color] She gritted her teeth and retained her normal attitude. She laughed loudly and smiled at him. [color=turquoise]”What a fine gentleman. I’ll keep that in mind, Mr. Magnificent Helio.”[/color] She then curtsied to him and turned her attention to the rest of the group. 

As the other woman introduced herself, Tigerlily smirked. She recognized the woman’s tongue and was appreciative of her craft. However, food and rum was not something she could turn down. She sighed; did this woman not have any amas?  Was she….?  [color=turquoise]“I suppose I can join you. Also, did you get all your belongings robbed?”[/color] She scrutinized her expression and smiled kindly at her. [color=turquoise]”What a pity if so.”[/color] Her voice was calm and sympathetic. 

The man that had been introduced as Barboda began speaking.. Her gaze shifted to him and eyed his helmet. What was the tin man hiding? Was he a Dark Elf? She narrowed her gaze but didn’t let the smile drop. Another individual to keep an eye on. Her head began to ache for everything. However, he possessed a ship - a beautiful one - and she couldn't pass it up. If only her parents knew what she was doing…. She snickered and paused to assess the group, specifically Helio. 

Helio had obnoxiously commented on Barboda, causing her to snicker. She knew she wasn’t the only one suspicious. His attitude and jokes were familiar. She had to stop herself from thinking too forward though. An aching in her chest caused her to go silent until she was able to draw several deep breaths again. All the flair and attitude was a masquerade and she saw right through it. He was quick to make his purchase and saw out of the corner of her eye as he turned around with an accordion. He hadn’t changed after all.

Tigerlily approached the Odds and Ends and began to take a look for herself. She picked out an [url=i.imgur.com/VLZ0dIa.png]outfit[/url]for herself. She smiled in delight at the outfit. It would be far easier to switch to her mermaid form. With a grin, she reached out and took the parrot, which swiftly climbed onto her shoulder.  Tigerlily grinned at it and tilted her head. 

[color=turquoise]”What shall I name you?”[/color] She inquired, and the parrot chirped and nipped at her ear. [color=turquoise]”A wise choice. I’ll think about it.”[/color] 

She snickered and turned back to face the rest of the crew, specifically Lizzie. [color=turquoise]”Lass, I bought you an outfit. You must blend in.”[/color] She winked at her as she handed the [url=i.imgur.com/y7edhka.png]clothes[/url], her voice low enough for only them to hear. Next, Tigerlily bought more stuff for the boat and knew extras wouldn’t hurt.

She then moved next to Helio, and her voice was friendly and sweet. [color=turquoise]”Magnificent Helio, allow me to teach you how to play that.”[/color] She gently put her hand over his and smiled. [color=turquoise]”What say you, once we get settled on this fine vessel?”[/color] She winked and moved ahead to board the ship. [/color]

[center][h2][color=92278f]Helio[/color] and [color=mediumturquoise]Tigerlily[/color][/h2][/center]
[color=92278f]Time:[/color][b] 10 years ago [/b]
[color=mediumturquoise]Location:[/color] Roshmi Grand Hall
[color=92278f]Music:[/color][url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hTvc3f83Ws&ab_channel=Ma%C3%81ngelesCaroLassodelaVega] The Second Waltz[/url]

[hr][color=lightgray]Not attending the Grand Roshmi Ball as a nobleman or woman was blasphemous. With its gold and glittering atmosphere, it was truly magic at work. Beautiful, shimmering gowns and dashing young gents danced all along the glistening floor, which was intricate with detail. The wealthy attended the bi-yearly event from all over Avalia, for a multitude of reasons like finding appropriate suitors for their offspring or negotiating with fellow successful businessmen.

The band began to play a waltz, which guests gradually started to step in rhythm to as they moved across the room. Nearby the dance floor stood an elegant, young lady.

[color=mediumturquoise]”Sir,”[/color] [url=https://i.imgur.com/PjpkToy.png]Tigerlily[/url] was grinning from ear-to-ear as the male elf bowed in front of her. She was holding back giggles unsuccessfully. There was a small crowd of fairies and elves alike, gathered around her, all seeking her validation and attention. She was used to gathering extra attention yet it still overwhelmed her. It was the curse and blessing of being a siren. [color=mediumturquoise]”I am going to go sit down-”[/color]

[color=gold]”Miss, you’re too beautiful to be on your own.”[/color] The elf replied, moving his arm to her. [color=gold]”Allow me to help you.”[/color] Her parents, Vera and Orion, were watching with amusement, none of them intervening to aid her. They’d hoped she’d find a willing prince to marry and settle down with so they could connect their kingdoms and prosper. Unbeknownst to her, her parents didn’t have their daughter’s well being in their mind. [color=gold]”Miss, I do insist-”[/color] He tried taking her arm again, but she moved away with a scowl.

[color=mediumturquoise]”I dare say, there’s many other women here, my gentleman. This one is going to go sit-”[/color] She paused and turned to see a red-haired fairy coming toward her. She stared at him, unable to hear the boys calling for her attention, or trying to pull her towards them. [color=mediumturquoise]”[i]Oh who is that?[/i]”[/color] Tigerlily wondered aloud as she turned to face him as he approached her, fighting through the crowd.

The red-haired fairy cut his way in between the two of them, stumbling out of the crowd. He straightened up with a sly, self-confident smile and bowed. [color=92278f]”Good evening! Ah there you are, my sweet. So charming and making friends quicker than a mouse scurrying away from a cat!”[/color] He raised his brows, locking eyes with the demihuman for a moment before taking Tigerlily’s hand gently, [color=92278f]”May I have this dance, fair maiden?”[/color]

Tigerlily watched as the fairy came toward her with a confident smile. She couldn’t help but grin and was glad the veil could conceal her blush. Then, quickly realizing what he was doing, beamed. She sighed in relief as if she had been waiting for him to intervene and save her. [color=mediumturquoise]”Well you know being popular is hard, as I’ve told you before.”[/color] She replied with a grin as he took her hand. She watched him bow and had to bite her lip not to laugh, [color=mediumturquoise]”You can have anything darling, I thought you’d never ask.”[/color] She curled her fingers over his and stared at him with a grin.

Helio smiled genuinely at her reply and pulled her close into a dance, matching the waltz’ tempo. [color=92278f]”I’d ask if we have met before, but certainly I’d remember those enchanting eyes.”[/color] He told her softly. 

Tigerlily set her hands on his shoulders, her gripping tightening. She had been saved only to be in the arms of another hopeless man vying for her attention. Tigerlily felt irritation rise, but quickly pushed it down. She might as well try to have fun tonight. Besides, this fairy was very easy on the eyes compared to her other suitors. She managed a grin as she moved in tempo to the waltz as well. [color=mediumturquoise]”We have not.”[/color] Her voice was light and playful. [color=mediumturquoise]”Seems as though fate pulled us together now though. Thank you for saving me. It was a noble feat.”[/color] She told him, then asked, [color=mediumturquoise]”What’s your name, handsome?”[/color] 

[color=92278f]”All in a day’s work, darling. My name is Helio Millinia, of the River Kingdom. And what do I call you, enchantress?”[/color] Helio inquired lightly, swinging her around. 

Tigerlily laughed and let out a broad smile. [color=mediumturquoise]”Nice to meet you, Helio. I’m Tigerlily, of the Aquarian Kingdom.”[/color] Her voice became hushed yet confident, as she spoke of it. It was rare to hear the name of it, as it was exclusive to only aquatic demihumans. 

Helio’s eyes lit up with intrigue, [color=92278f]”Ah. A mermaid. How mystical.”[/color] He mused,  [color=92278f]”I’m almost under the impression that you may not have heard of me. That would be impossible, of course. ”[/color]

Tigerlily wrinkled her nose. Heard of him? What was he, the prince of Avalia? She frowned at him and stared at him. [color=mediumturquoise]”Sorry sir I haven’t heard of you before. You’re a little too forward for my taste.”[/color] Her expression turned surly as her tone changed. She leaned in with narrowed eyes, [color=mediumturquoise]”The impossible has become the possible. Sorry to disappoint you.”[/color] 

[color=92278f]”If you couldn’t tell by my famous, violet eyes,”[/color] He tapped near his eye and leaned in closer, [color=92278f]”I’m the prince of the River Kingdom,”[/color] He was whispering in her ear now, his warm breath on her neck.

Tigerlily raised her eyebrows and listened as he spoke with amusement. His breath on her neck made her nervous and she grimaced, cringing away from it, [color=mediumturquoise]”Oh I see now. I must keep this in mind for the River Kingdom should I venture to it. I won’t be forgetting this now, Prince Millinia.”[/color] She retorted sarcastically, but still wasn’t entirely relenting her guard.

Helio suddenly gestured with a slight head tilt and sway of his eyes to the side, [color=92278f]”All eyes are on us.”[/color] Some of the guests had cleared space for them and were watching them intently now. [color=92278f]”You must not have noticed since your eyes have been locked on me.”[/color] 

Tigerlily glanced around after he spoke. Surprise filled her eyes since she hadn’t noticed the ballroom had stopped to stare at them. In her peripheral vision, she saw her parents watching as well and didn’t try to inspect their expressions. She knew how they felt about fairies.
 
Helio suddenly turned her in a graceful swoop, interrupting her thoughts. After pausing to stare down at her face, studying it, he stated matter-of-factly, [color=92278f]”You have fallen for me.”[/color] He grinned smugly down at her as he pulled her back upward.

[color=mediumturquoise]”Oh my,”[/color] Tigerlily inhaled when he turned her in a swoop and was stuck staring up at him. She wrapped her arms around his neck to keep from falling.  [color=mediumturquoise]”Well dear Helio, on the contrary, I'd say you were the one falling in love with me.”[/color] She smirked at him, then gestured with her head in the direction of a nearby man, [color=mediumturquoise]”That feline demihuman looks ready to swoop in at a moment’s notice and sweep me off my feet. What do you think about that? Are you going to allow it?”[/color]

Helio smiled at her question, looking off into the distance as he continued to dance with her, one hand on her waist and the other in her hand, his touch gentle, [color=92278f]”Perhaps I am.”[/color] He listened to her speak for a moment before stating, [color=92278f]”Many men show interest yet you come with no date, I presume. And you know why?”[/color] He looked at her again and said, [color=92278f]”A lady with a sharp tongue like yours does not allow for anyone to swoop her off her feet if she does not wish for it.”[/color]

Tigerlily held her hand over his and the other one around his neck.[color=mediumturquoise]”For a charming and arrogant prince, you’re also quite observant.”[/color] She let her grin dampen to a soft smile. [color=mediumturquoise]”You have your own admirers and yet are without a date as well. It seems as if fate has pulled us together. What do you think, Helio Millinia? Such a fine lady as I wouldn’t allow that, you are correct. He doesn’t have your charming eyes.”[/color] 

[color=92278f]”Arrogant? How presumptuous of you. ”[/color] Helio playfully retorted, [color=92278f]”But the charming part I must concur with.“[/color] His brows raised at her next statement and he leaned in closer again, his voice hushed, [color=92278f]”Because I came here looking for a worthy suitor, among other reasons. Are you worthy of gazing into my charming eyes for the rest of your days? Fate is a fickle woman, after all. “[/color]

Tigerlily listened to him speak and started giggling. As he leaned in, she felt her heart flutter again. She found it hard not to smile. [color=mediumturquoise]”I would venture to say yes, I am worthy of doing so. The question now stands, are you worthy of handling a siren? A woman of the sea? Fate may be a fickle woman, but so am I.””[/color] 

Helio paused, staring at her for a moment before giving her a cheeky smile, [color=92278f]”Well why wouldn’t I be worthy?”[/color] He mused, humming the song under his breath as the song began to wrap up.

He glanced down as he felt a tug at his pant leg. His young brother Echo was staring up at him. He smiled wide, letting go of Tigerlily to pick him up in his arms. [color=92278f]”Ah! Hello little bear! Tigerlily, this is my little brother, Echo. Echo, why did you run into the crowd? You know you’re not supposed to come out here with no adults.”[/color] His voice grew stern as he spoke.

[color=AC5FFB]”Mother told me you called for me.”[/color] Echo replied, [color=AC5FFB]”Are you going to find me the dessert cart yet?”[/color] He glanced at Tigerlily a little shyly and smiled softly, [color=AC5FFB]”H-Hi… You’re pretty.”[/color]

That cheeky smile sent her heart fluttering more than before. She went to speak, but then a little boy interrupted them. Smirking, she watched them and then frowned. Helio hadn’t called for him. Suspicion rose as she began to piece it together. Clearly, his family wasn’t fond of species mixing either. She turned to find her own parents scowling at her. 

[color=mediumturquoise]”Why thank you! You look handsome yourself!”[/color] She laughed kindly. [color=mediumturquoise]”It appears this is my cue to leave. It was nice meeting you, Helio Miliinia.”[/color] She stepped back, curtised, and then winked at him. Tigerlily sauntered off to the food table to begin eating to rejuvenate her energy. 

Helio’s smile fell and he stepped forward when she announced it was her cue to wait. [color=92278f]”Wait-[/color] She had started to saunter off and he moved after her, setting Echo down by the dessert table. Running to her side, he took her hand. He moved to say something but Bastian came bounding over, out-of-breath.

[color=gray]”You were right. He’s an ass. But I found him.”[/color] He huffed between statements, leaning his hands on his thighs. [color=gray]”He wants to talk outside.”[/color]

[color=92278f]”Mm. He insulted your hat, didn’t he?”[/color] Helio replied. He glanced sideways at Tigerlily a moment hesitantly.

[color=gray]”Yes, but more importantly, we need to go talk. Come on.”[/color] Bastian pressed impatiently, making motions to usher him with him. His eyes fell on Tigerlily curiously for a moment and then took off in the direction he wanted Helio to follow him. 

Tigerlily had grabbed food and started eating when Helio rejoined her. She had to hide her shy smile when he did. She opened her mouth to speak, when a man came running towards them. Alarmed, she moved back, but soon discovered it was Helio’s friend. She watched curiously as their interaction played out. Confused, she frowned and turned to Helio. [color=mediumturquoise]'' What is going on?”[/color] She munched on her food as she waited for his answer.

Helio moved to Tigerlily’s side and asked softly so only she’d hear, [color=92278f]“Does my tiger like herself a little rebellion?”[/color]

Tigerlily grinned with amusement. Those violet eyes caused her heart to flutter again. She listened to him speak and her eyes widened. The prince was interested in a rebellion? She recovered and whispered back, [color=mediumturquoise]''It's as if you read my mind.’’[/color] She giggled and offered him her hand. 

[color=92278f]”No, no. Meet me outside in ten minutes in the back of the hall.”[/color] Helio took her hand and kissed the back of her palm, [color=92278f]” I’ll share with you my secrets.”[/color] With another flirty grin for good measure, he then took off after Bastian. [/color][/hider]
