[ 2013.06.15 23:49:54 ] Rin Kaelestria > /emote looks at Nico now, giving her a nod. "I understand. Thank you for the talk earlier."
[ 2013.06.15 23:50:32 ] Raphael Saint > /emote smiles back at Aldrith. "Good to hear. I know it might sound alien comiong from my mouth, but you deserve it."
[ 2013.06.15 23:50:37 ] Nicoletta Mithra > /emote smiles. "Was a pleasure."
[ 2013.06.15 23:51:00 ] Aldrith Shutaq > Children are happy and safe, the war is doing better, my wife will be spending more time at home and PIE is still in capable hands, and on top of it all the Empire is convinced we are the best thing since sliced cheese.
[ 2013.06.15 23:51:16 ] Tamiroth > /emote bows slightly towards Aldrith and Sepherim and heads towards the ball room.
[ 2013.06.15 23:51:16 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote smiles warmly at Raphael. "Thank you. That means a lot."
[ 2013.06.15 23:51:21 ] Rin Kaelestria > Good seeing you again, and hope to again something. Farewell, rest well, and go with God, Captain Mithra. *politely curtsying.*
[ 2013.06.15 23:51:32 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote waves to Tamiroth as she goes.
[ 2013.06.15 23:51:32 ] Rin Kaelestria > *sometime
[ 2013.06.15 23:52:15 ] Raphael Saint > /emote laughs out loud. "So I heard. Many praises for the venerable Praetoria tonight. Almost makes me wish I was still serving within it. But then I might end up like that Commander Mirra, so I guess there's pros and cons to everything."
[ 2013.06.15 23:53:03 ] Aldrith Shutaq > Hey, it might be fun to watch you butt heads with him. I am sure sparks would fly from those rough chromes of yours.
[ 2013.06.15 23:53:14 ] Nicoletta Mithra > It was good, indeed. *Nico bows and heads out to the ballroom.*
[ 2013.06.15 23:53:33 ] Raphael Saint > Ascentior made the mistake of introducing us. I think he likes me.
[ 2013.06.15 23:54:37 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote laughs. "Oh Lord, I wonder how long that would last?"
[ 2013.06.15 23:54:45 ] Rin Kaelestria > /emote leaves the art gallery after finishing looking at some of the other pieces.
[ 2013.06.15 23:54:49 ] Raphael Saint > And that doorman....wasn't fond of the tip I gave him.
[ 2013.06.15 23:55:06 ] Aldrith Shutaq > Oh, don't tell me... that's what you did to poor Sepherim!
[ 2013.06.15 23:55:09 ] Aldrith Shutaq > You ass.
[ 2013.06.15 23:55:23 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote chortles and shakes his head.
[ 2013.06.15 23:55:29 ] Raphael Saint > /emote throws up his hands in a helpless gesture. "What'd I do?"
[ 2013.06.15 23:55:58 ] Aldrith Shutaq > Do you know how long he's been in the navy?
[ 2013.06.15 23:56:01 ] Aldrith Shutaq > Augh, nevermind.
[ 2013.06.15 23:56:57 ] Raphael Saint > You hired a navy vet as a doorman? Good Lord, the veteran's programs are getting worse and worse around here.
[ 2013.06.15 23:57:21 ] Raphael Saint > Well, good on oyou for giving the poor guy a job.
[ 2013.06.15 23:57:26 ] Raphael Saint > (( *you ))
[ 2013.06.15 23:59:31 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote keeps laughing, clearly enjoying himself. "Ah, I haven't felt this good in a few years.
[ 2013.06.16 00:00:39 ] Raphael Saint > I think those were the only new friends I made today, so I think I did good.
[ 2013.06.16 00:01:00 ] Aldrith Shutaq > You are doomed.
[ 2013.06.16 00:01:08 ] Aldrith Shutaq > You are lucky Sepherim is nicer than most.
[ 2013.06.16 00:02:15 ] Raphael Saint > /emote laughs. "I don't fear those two. If they had any sense about them they'd know I'm not the enemy anyways."
[ 2013.06.16 00:02:56 ] Aldrith Shutaq > Quite. Too many people in PIE worry themselves with harmless people they just don't like.
[ 2013.06.16 00:04:25 ] Raphael Saint > Ah, I used to do the same myself. But I've grown out of that a little bit. 'Matured' I think is what they call it nowadays. It's a real buzzkill.
[ 2013.06.16 00:04:38 ] Aldrith Shutaq > Heh, quite.
[ 2013.06.16 00:05:08 ] Aldrith Shutaq > Anyway, let'd get back into the ball room. I have to shoo the leftover drunks out.
[ 2013.06.16 00:05:37 ] Raphael Saint > /emote laughs. "Alright, alright, I get the hint," he says jokingly. "I can walk myself out just fine!"
[ 2013.06.16 00:05:49 ] Raphael Saint > /emote exits the art gallery for the main ballroom.
So, the positive feedback from this has been absolutely astounding. I'd like to thank everyone who came along with everyone who helped with the execution.
I am definitely planning more events. It looks like we'll be making this ball an annual event from now on, and I have many ideas for PIE-sponsored events. I'm now hoping to run 3-5 events a year!
