Lavender grimaced. Out of all the people to approach, it really had to be this guy, didn’t it? She lifted her fox mask just a little and pointedly picked up the glass of wine to take a nonchalant sip.

It seemed an age for the man to make his way across the floor, an age of suspense. Slow, taunting, teasing even where his movements but then he was there. Tattooed and scarred knuckles fell upon the table as he learnt heavily over it casting a large shadow over Lavender. A deliberate silence held the space as he waited for the mask to twist his way, waited for the attention to fall on him. His piercing gaze ever present. 

“[i]How’s the drink?[/i]” he asked, voice low, a bit gravelly but warm, just like the smile on his face that reached those blue eyes. “[i]Any of these yours?[/i]” he added as he looked around at the many younger looking tavern occupants. “[i]Not sure I should even serve them, but around here it’s hard to guess at someones age. Like you, and the mask only makes it harder.[/i]”

His grin was a well practiced grin. Friendly, welcoming, confident, charming even. Perfect white teeth, a strong jaw line and those blue eyes. It undoubtedly got him out of much trouble in the past, but judging by the way he used it, likely into just as much.

He turned to the boy sitting beside her and playfully slapped him on the chest with a flick of his wrist. 
“[i]Boy, you herd the girl, get her a hot drink.[/i]”
