MASKTOURN

Lacey fiddled with her earrings again, mainly taking time to distract herself since she was getting a bit bored. Well. More bored. Okay she was totally bored but she for once didn't wanna be too obvious about that. The whole death game obviously makes it a bit hard to be social for some people.

11:45 PM

@Twig | Seki / Aarni @soul | kallum 🔥 + peregrine 🎭

"Hello, I love your earrings!" A voice chimed near Lacey. @Barry|Lacey🔦+ Levi🫠

She blinks, immediately putting on a smile as she looks towards where she heard the voice. "Thank you. I inherited them from my grandmother." @Twig | Seki / Aarni

"Oh, that's cute! I mainly made mine myself", Seki smiled, and gently flicked their ear, making the dangling earrings and chains jingle softly. They were wearing a longer robe, a more feminine shape, though it still left part of their fluffy chest and back exposed. They had a golden flower in their hair, near the base of their ear, and a few small pink diamonds in their hair. @Barry|Lacey🔦+ Levi🫠

"Wow really? That's one of the things I never got the hang of." Sbe giggles. Playing with the hem of her skirt. The dress hugged her gently. Tight enough to show her figure yet loose enough to make it not uncomfortably so. The main accessories she wore here the earrings yes, but the waist belt to her dress was ornate as well, the two carved in snacks entangled with one another. "I'm Lacey by the way. Figured I'd introduce myself to get names out of the way." She states, playful expression evident even with the mask covering half her face. @Twig | Seki / Aarni

Seki laughed brightly. "Nice to meet you, Lacey, I'm Seki!" their tail swung happily. "You seem a bit lonely, no-one asked you to dance yet?" @Barry|Lacey🔦+ Levi🫠

"Well things haven't quite started yet. And it's not like I'm expecting many to be in a dancing mood." She waved her hand, giggling. Gosh she was glad it hid half her face. She was good at smiling away her awkwardness. "What about you? Anyone you've met so far that you hope to see here soon?" @Twig | Seki / Aarni

"Oh no, dancing away your worries is the way to live", Seki chuckled. "Nah, I just arrived. Took a bit to figure how to work with all these robes and knicknacks." They twirled around lightly, the light fabric flaring out and their accessories clinking and gleaming. @Barry|Lacey🔦+ Levi🫠

"I get it. It took me a bit to figure out how to get this dress on by myself." She giggles. @Twig | Seki / Aarni

"Well, you figured it out well, I'd say", Seki grinned, swaying their tail tip in a friendly way. "I haven't been in a fancy party like this in a long time. I prefer a bit more casual environment, but this is an unique experience, at least." @Barry|Lacey🔦+ Levi🫠

"I've been to a few. Mainly when trying to go on online dates. You wouldn't be surprised that I was looking for one to my high school reunion." @Twig | Seki / Aarni

"Oh, really?" Seki chuckled. "How'd that go? I never made it yo high school so I wouldn't have that opportunity." When the announcement came, Seki's face fell into a sombre, hateful stare as they listened to Naiyta. They didn't know enough people to have much of a reaction to any of the matches, so after the Lifebringer syopped talking, Seki only huffed. "Huh? I was wondering how someone could write my name so wrong, but sounds like they gave me a whole new last name, huh?" @Barry|Lacey🔦+ Levi🫠

"Yeah... I think they modified my middle name???? Weird." She raised an eyebrow hearing who who was paired with.... yeah she has no idea who this Invo guy was. @Twig | Seki / Aarni

"Huh, yeah? Weird shit..." they huffed. @

"There does seem to be a lil bit of a theme with the name modifications don't you think? At least for some." @Twig | Seki / Aarni

"Oh? Hmm, well, I guess, a lot of them had a similar ending." Seki put a hand on their chin. (edited)

12:13 AM

@Barry|Lacey🔦+ Levi🫠

"Yeah. Wonder why that is." @Twig | Seki / Aarni

"Eh. Whatever, I guess", Seki shrugged and turned to smile to Lacey. "The fights aren't today's concern. Do you dance?" @Barry|Lacey🔦+ Levi🫠

"Occasionally, yes I do." She chuckles she chuckles. Brushing some hair from her face. @Twig | Seki / Aarni

"Nice!" Seki grinned. "Would you feel like getting loose on the dance floor, or would you rather wait to be picked up by a younger cavalier?" he chuckled. @Barry|Lacey🔦+ Levi🫠

"Who says I only can dance with one person tonight?" She playfully crosses her arms under her chest, leaning towards Seki. "Well? Will you lead, or should I?" @Twig | Seki / Aarni

Seki laughs lightly and swings her tail. "Whichever youu'd prefer, darling. Though I must say I'm not entirely sure how you dance to medievalcore, so I would have to improvise." They offer their fuzzy hand with a bright smile. @Barry|Lacey🔦+ Levi🫠

She takes it, giggling even more. If her eyes were visible behind the mask, they would notably be a bit brighter. "Lead the way." @Twig | Seki / Aarni

Seki bowed lightly, their tail playfully squisming, and led Lacey to the dancefloor. @Barry|Lacey🔦+ Levi🫠

She bows back, the skirt of her dress swaying slightly as she walked with Seki to the dance floor. Hopefully her dancing skills weren't rusty. @Twig | Seki / Aarni

Seki took a moment to listen to the music. Their ears tickes and they nodded to the rhythm slightly. Then thry shifted their hold on Lacey's hand, and respctfully put a paw on her waist. Then he started leading the dance with a peppy step, though trying to take it slow at first so Lacey could get the hang of the patterns. @Barry|Lacey🔦+ Levi🫠

It was pretty easy for her to pick up the pace as Seki led them, taking a bit longer to get the rhythm in time with their's. Helping with the adjustment of their hand positions, her bracelets jingled against one another. @Twig | Seki / Aarni

Seki smiled, and got into the swing of the dance the longer they went at it. Their ears bopped gently with their bouncy steps, and their tail swung smoother with the flow. They chuckled, grinnig happily as their dance soon resembled almost like a barn dance or a joyful frolick in a folk celebration. They didn't care if it was unconventional or not suitable for an older gentleman. If they were going to die anyway, there was no use fretting over such insignifigant things. The point was to have fun and enjoy life while it lasted! @Barry|Lacey🔦+ Levi🫠

Lacey seemed to agree, giggling and laughing as they danced, the ends of her hair slightly getting a greenish hue, gently radiating a subtle glow. Gold earrings swaying along with the both of them. But Lacey did still think of the previous talk she had with the other contestant. With the Lifebringer. She wasn't going to give up on getting out of here just yet. But she had to play along. "Looks like someone is really experienced!" She teases again. @Twig | Seki / Aarni

Seki chuckled with a grin. "Is that a compliment, or a jab at my age?" Seki winked. @Barry|Lacey🔦+ Levi🫠

She tilts her head cutely. Giving a slightly crooked smirk as she does. "Well I'll let you decide which you like more." @Twig | Seki / Aarni

Seki stuck their tongue out a bit with a smirk and narrowed eyes, and twirled Lacey around. "Dancing is my passion. I've done it since I was a kid. You're not bad at it yourself, heh!" @Barry|Lacey🔦+ Levi🫠

"Well having to go to multiple quinceaneras for family and friends really helps with that." @Twig | Seki / Aarni

"Oh, family parties? Did you like those?" Seki asked, not yet too out of breath regardless of the energetic dancing. @Barry|Lacey🔦+ Levi🫠

"As much as anyone can after the 13th one. And that's just the celebrations of quinceaneras. I'm a bit of a social butterfly." @Twig | Seki / Aarni

Seki laughed lightly. "Oh, I see. I always preferred parties outside the family circle, but I suppose celebrations are usually fun." They twirled Lacey again. @Barry|Lacey🔦+ Levi🫠

She quickly twirls before stepping closer, closing the gap between them as she twirls the both of them. Seeming surprisingly light on her feet. "They can be. It all is dependant on you actually enjoying the party to have fun at one~." @Twig | Seki / Aarni

Seki let out a joyous yelp as Lacey twirled them. She laughed, tail squiggling. "Suppose so, and if you enjoy the company." @Barry|Lacey🔦+ Levi🫠

"Yep! Luckily for you I'm enjoying myself right now." She laughs, trying her best to twirl Seki herself since they were slightly taller than her, especially with their ears. @Twig | Seki / Aarni

Seki giggled and pressed their ears down as Lacey twirled them around. "Woo!" They laughed, and after a little while more dancing, they slowed down and sighed. "Thank you, dear, I enjoyed our dance and your company a lot! But I think I'm gonna take a break now, heh." Their tail wiggled happily, but they did seem a little tired. @Barry|Lacey🔦+ Levi🫠

She does a playful curtsy as she speaks, "Well, I'm glad we had a nice dance. Rest well, Seki." @Twig | Seki / Aarni

"Yes, and you have a great rest of the night, Lacey!" Seki did a little curtsy as well, bowing his head, before waving and grinning, before heading to the sidelines. @Barry|Lacey🔦+ Levi🫠
