The mention of Lianna's lost sight did cause a look of concern to come across Drake's face. For someone with no use of one of her senses, she seemed rather comfortable in her setting. Obviously the errant twitch or sudden outburst would be due cause for alarm. Something like a loud trumpet blarin- [color=00F8FE][b]BBRRRRRRRRPRPPPP[/b][/color]. As if on cue with his mental train of thought, a sudden burst of noise came from the prince and Drake couldn't help but slightly wince at the preceedings. [color=greenyellow][i]Wasn't this supposed to be a regal and relaxing event? Why is so much happening?[/i][/color] Drake at least appreciated the addition of some more sweets as he noticed more guests flooding into the main area.

Turning his attention elsewhere, he motioned towards Alexander. [color=greenyellow]"The dinner last night was truly that bit of marvel? It would seem many events are turning more...exciting than expected nowadays."[/color] There was a pause as he took a brief sip of his tea. [color=greenyellow]"But no matter, I appreciate your compliments, Sir Deacon. I do like to keep my ground when things get shakey. Best to be on solid footing when defending oneself."[/color] 

His body shifted to direct itself towards Sadie, who had just excitedly inquired about Drake's possible attendance to this masquerade. He already had plans to go but to hear that she would go as well made him rather excited. He flashed a charismatic smile to ease her possible worries before taking her hand in his. [color=greenyellow]"I would be delighted to go, especially if you plan to attend, Princess Camilia."[/color] His voice dropped a little low, as if to flare a hint of charm in his speech. [color=greenyellow]"And thank you for such kind words. I will make sure to heed both yours and Sir Deacons advice."[/color] His voice returned to its usual cadence, and his gaze once again met Alexander's.

[color=greenyellow]"Well I do appreciate your company, Sir. I do not wish to keep you any longer than you'd like, but if there is anything else you'd like to discuss before you take your leave I am more than happy to share some more words."[/color] He would give the man some due time, and he didn't want to outwardly shoo him away, but there was a part of him that wanted to enjoy some of his time with Sadie. He had a feeling at the party it might even be more chaotic than it is here so whatever social time he could spend with her he would gladly secure. Yet all the same, Alexander was not rude nor would Drake try to usher him out like an unwanted puppy. If anything he was curious if Alexander had any other notions to approach aside from complimenting the two of them. He kept a friendly smile on while gently holding Sadie's hand aloft until he would feel it pull away, then he would separate his fingers and let the Princess' hand return to its resting position should she choose to.
