「 ♔ 」 "How you honor me so! You are what they call a ‘natural beauty,’ no? But I also must ask what your armor is for? Are you a knight queen of some type, or are you just trying to fool me?"
"Ah--! my armour. Well, prior to arriving this city I was a knight of the halidom of Ylisse. However, I have grown quite attached to my armour hence why I wear it regularly."
[ ♬ ]—— “Ayup, one of the greatest in Japan!” Ibuki smiles with brightness, self-confidence spilling from that short sentence. Clapping of hands follow the conclusion to the song, with Ibuki joining them cheerfully, and after the noise dies down, she flickers her attention back to the other girl.
“You’re a guitar expert too? Ibuki can recognize a rockin’ appearance when she sees one: that hair is the kind of wild Ibuki can dig!”
Japan, that was a name she have heard of so many times yet unfamiliar with herself. However, it was nice to be recognized within a country -- if she wasn't so hung up about being perfect all the time in the past she would have appreciated the kingdom wide acknowledgement a lot more than she had.
"I have actually not played a guitar before, my apologies. I am familiar with the harp though." An awkward flash was sent towards Ibuki briefly.

Today she had invited Stahl over to cook dinner with her. However she had suggested that he arrive a couple hours early because she was hoping to spend more time with him. After all, it has been quite some time since they have last seen each other in person so it was natural that Cordelia wanted to get all the quality Stahl time that is possible!
She had bought an abundance of food in order to accommodate Stahl's large appetite. After all, she could not afford to have her husband starving on one of their first nights together after something that felt like forever.
Her ears would then pick up some knocking noises. Instinct told her it was Stahl, she had peered over and stood up before opening the door. Just then she felt a tingling sensation on her neck ii it was a bug, apparently. However, she was quick to dismiss the bug and a smile formed naturally on her face whilst seeing Stahl.
"Hello there. You came a bit early," her eyes looked inside her apartment. "It's a little messy but, come in."
&&HIATUS NOTICE.
assessment period is coming and the mun, chrissy will be incredibly busy. i apologize to all the people who i am currently threading with (seeing that im already kind of slow) but i will be placing cordelia on a FULL hiatus--meaning, i will not be posting for quite some time until my next break. thank you for all your patience, my rp partners, all of you are the best!
To a degree it was painful to watch Cordelia at parties. Stahl wanted to interject so many times, wanted to approach the Pegasus Knight and tell her to enjoy herself, to not mind what others were thinking of her for once. Stahl could only imagine what kind of pressure was on her shoulders, he wanted to lift some of it and ease her burden, but how? How was he supposed to do anything when he was clearly invisible outside of the battlefield? An average man like him had limited powers, and his best efforts weren’t enough to let a smile appear on Cordelia’s face.
However, times changed. Their relationship was different now, it was like a dream come true, just that reality was sweeter than any dream or any candy in this world could ever be. Tonight would be different, tonight none of his efforts would be in vain!
Tonight, none of them would have to even try. In a way, that is. They just had to be themselves, enjoy each other’s company and relax for once. There was no war that lingered in the back of their minds, no people to please, no prince or knights to be chased, it was just them and that was more than enough. Stahl’s heart already skipped huge beats, he really hoped the ball’s music would drown it’s loud beats. Geez, how embassing.
”Oh, these rascals.” He chuckled, her touch sending shivers down his spine. "I pray they’ll know their place. At least for a few minutes." Concentrating on your own appearance was very tough, when you were fully enchanted by someone else’s. Luckily, there were no magicians able to read his thoughts around, nobody was allowed to catch up on Stahl’s “teenager having his first crush”-thoughts.
The cavalier nodded in agreement. "Then I am confident that this will be a splendid evening. I have no doubt that this chance will go to waste and I am happy we were granted with it. Thank you already, Cordelia. This night means a lot to me." His chest swell with pride and joy, slow steps got them closer to the entrance. "I will try my best to not do."
She was absolutely right about that. It amazed him, actually, that his feet didn’t hurt after all that secret practice. Tomorrow they could fall off for all he cared.
The few minutes it took to get to the entrance and gain approval to get in passed by in a flash. Pleasant music reminding him of Ylisse filled the room, the few people he knew and caught a glimpse of seemed to be having fun. There was also a huge buffet, Stahl mentally scolding his stomach for already demanding to be filled.
Carefully, Stahl let go of Cordelia, bowed and offered his wife a hand. "May I have this dance?"
In the past it was all about seeing Chrom, Lissa, and the Exalt—Emmeryn enjoying themselves, being safe and away from potential assassins. Of course, it was stressful. She was a Pegasus Knight, the most trusted guards on the side of the exalt and the Ylissean royal family. She did not have it bad, or so she thought since there were people with heavier roles such as Frederick. Not only was he their steward but at the same time he had to keep all the knights in check and the exalt safe from any sorts of danger. Ah, those days—she missed them maybe just a little but definitely not at the occasions of tonight.
However, with Stahl it almost felt different—he had taken her out of the high stress zone for the moment, even if it was a moment she found herself captivated with him. It had occurred to her that she had thought about Chrom less and less as the days went by.
Tonight was not a night to be worrying over if Chrom was still around and safe, or to frantic about how the other Shepherds were doing. It would be a long night but she had it all to Stahl for the time being and she was content with that. Cordelia for once had entrusted her senses to believe that the others would be doing fine and she should just drop everything and spend the quality time with her husband that she never got to spend with in the past.
“To be quite frank, you already look dashing in your natural form.” A smile surfaced her face as she watched the strands stay down for the moment. “Though for the sake of the event it would be most appropriate if they would behave for the time being, yes?” Despite being adults, it felt like everything in her life had taken a step later—her first love, her first dance, and perhaps even her first date with her husband. Nothing appeared to have gone in order, yet everything felt so right.
She allowed her slender fingers to stroke along his jawline at how hard he was trying to keep his promise. It would not have mattered if he had stepped on her (though that would probably hurt quite a bit), to her it was a night for the two to truly relax and enjoy themselves—she was not going to let little setbacks like that to ruin the moment.
“I guess the scientists of this city have their moments. Albeit being used as social experiments is not the best but to be able to make up for the time we never got to spend with one another is splendid.”
Her face flushed in awe as her husband offered her to dance. Albeit she knew the moment was to come and she had predicted it, somehow a part of her was still anxious and perhaps even giddy about the situation. Shyly she had nodded initially before flashing him an approving smile at his gesture. He was attractive—so very attractive tonight.
“ Yes of course you may, my dear.”
「 ♔ 」 “Is that so? My, how I envy you… People would kill to look like you, you know that? You ought to be a little more proud of yourself!”
" I am very flattered milady! And I would also say, you look quite nice yourself. "

He would never get used to dazzling events like this. Stahl had attended a few parties in his life, mostly been there to enjoy the free food and listen to Cordelia’s performances in case she played the harp, but those factors aside he was not into them that much. Stahl liked preparing and helping out better than attending, however, today was different. This whole event was.
The cavalier wouldn’t miss out on a chance to properly spend time with Cordelia. Hive’s everchanging layout and the distance between their homes made it difficult to see each other on a somewhat daily basis; as if the lack of time spent with each other back in Ylisse wasn’t tormenting enough already. Though, Stahl didn’t want to be too bitter about it. They were granted a marvelous chance to make up for everything they couldn’t do, the set stage was amazing and no way would he carry negative feelings with him to the ball! A smile bigger than usual was glued to his face, eyes sparkling in excitement. It’s been ages since Stahl felt joy bubbling up like this.
"Ah —- yes, of course, my bad." Unconsciously, the man leaned against her faint touch, eyes closed for brief seconds. He really tried his best to look proper, but his hair decided to thwart the cavalier’s plans. Well. Cordelia might have fixed it for several minutes, but knowing himself it’d be a mess again soon.
Usually not caring about his appearance that much, Stahl wanted today to be different. Not wanting to be a shame, he picked out the most fancy and affordable clothes, even made sure to eat properly before they went to the ball so he wouldn’t spend most of the time next to the buffet. Cordelia always looked beautiful, but today even more so. To him, she shone brighter than all the lights in this museum combined.
"Me too, honey. I really appreciate this chance to spend time with you, and I am happy we got re-united in time. I would not have wanted to come to this city any later and miss this out. Thank the Gods for allowing us to share this moment. Shall we proceed and make this evening as amazing as can be?" Before offering an arm for his wife to hook into, Stahl quickly fixed his mask and tie. "Do pardon me already if I step on your feet, Cordelia."
Though the odds that he’d mess up were very slim, after all each night unless yesterday’s were spent practicing for this very moment.
Shamefully enough to say, Cordelia could not recall the last time that she had truly enjoyed a party with the people around her. After all, she was either too busy performing or goggling over the sight of Chrom whilst doing so. In the past, it almost seemed like everything she did was to impress a prince that she had thought to love but did not. Today would be different, she knew it would be.
Things were not easy for the two of them. Cordelia knew it was not easy for her to grow accustomed to such a foreign place that was far away from home but she knew, it must have been equally as hard on Stahl as it was on her. Though, tonight was not the night for her to be bitter or salty about the ‘what ifs’ but rather a night for her to truly relax for a change—a thing she had not considered since her entry as a young Pegasus knight since she had vigorously attempted to impress the veterans in every aspect possible. That alone, had driven her to the point of not being able to truly relax herself for even one moment and to top it off the war a while back at home was no better. Perhaps she had learned how to care for herself more but nonetheless, Cordelia never had a moment to truly relax and not worry about anything.
The smile on Stahl’s face only allowed the fainter one on her lips to grow. Never had she enjoyed contact this intimate with another individual yet with him, it almost felt too nice for her own good. Albeit that Stahl was not who gave much thought about his appearance, it was nice to see the effort that he had placed into tonight’s outfit.
“There’s a few loose strands hanging out,” tactical fingers allowed themselves to lightly brush the strands down to the side. Even though Cordelia knew that they would not be in such a neat shape for now, she had at least hoped it would look presentable as they walked into the ballroom together. “It should stay for now.”
“I have heard nice things about this event from others who have spent more time within this city. I do have faith that our night would simply be a wonderful one just by being within each other’s company.” Gingerly, she would hook her arms with his, as she could not help but to stifle a soft chuckle at his comment. “You are pardoned and forgiven ahead of time dear, though I do have faith that you would not step on my feet, yes?”
If anything the red headed knight knew that, the ‘average’ Stahl would have practiced so hard just to feel better because Stahl had believed that he was not as outstanding as her—which, she would always take in the liberty to disagree with.

The night does not begin when Sinbad dons the last of his jewelry and exits his apartment. It does not begin when he enters the museum, masked as per the requirement, and floats about the main hall. It does not begin with the music, with the food, or with the entrance of any particular individual. For Sinbad, the night does not truly begin until there is a beautiful woman in his arms. The first steps to allowing the night to begin are simple. With a gentle smile on his face, Sinbad extends his hands to a beauty in red.
“May I have this dance, miss?”
If it were not for the occasion of this event, Cordelia perhaps would have turned down any potential people approaching her for a dance. After all, dancing was not within her expertise and neither was she particularly talented in this aspect. But somehow, she found comfort with the anonymity of the mask she had worn over her face. Needless to say, she would flash a gentle smile at the other who had requested her to dance with him.
" Yes, you may. " The red head only felt herself let a smile grow before she took allowed her hand to be placed on top of the other's. Cordelia could only pray to herself that she there wouldn't be any hiccups within the process of dancing with this stranger.
The displays of the museum had dazzled the red headed knight. This was not her first time to a party as such but perhaps it was her first time participating in such events. The mask on her face fitted snugly, though part of her found some form of discomfort--ah, there was not much she could do about it. After all, it was apart of the dress code.
Perhaps this was Hive City's way to make up for the lack of time she got to spend with her family and her loved ones. It came to her attention that never did she and Stahl have a proper wedding dance--never had they had the liberty in engaging in such close contact with one another, yet tonight was an opportunity that had presented itself. Tonight sounded perfect--the ball, the dance, and their little moment of intimacy. Albeit Cordelia was not one to show affections publicly, she wanted to let the other man know that she was just as excited as he could be.
Cordelia angled herself to face Stahl as her finger tips gingerly touched his face, with a soft smile bestowed upon her lips she would gaze into his eyes intently. Then she would notice the uncleanliness of his hair and simply stifled out a series of gentle giggle.
" Allow me to fix your hair momentarily before we enter the room, dear. " Her slender fingers would reach into his greenish-brown locks and she would pause momentarily. " You know, I'm so happy we managed to have an an opportunity like this. We, never really spent much time together back home--or at least like this. "

WINTER BALL 2015 OUTFIT.
&&DRESS TO IMPRESS.
reckless driving was the closest she ever needed to come to flying. oddly, she was the sort to wear a helmet at times, though the days where she could test the limits of the road with her hair flying out behind her like some chasing comet’s tail or a stretch of arched combusting wings were those when she felt the freest, tearing with bladelike precision through oncoming traffic, dipping with the full brunt of her weight to steer at her clearly illegal speeds, coming so close to kissing the asphalt and burning out entirely …
it was a practice she was in love with. it was one nina fantasized of when she took her cocky steps through a nearly deserted parking lot that evening, only to find another nearly fitting her stature studying what could have been her own personal pegasus.
she was a woman attractive enough to earn her wings. nina imagined she wouldn’t care to have those arms laced between her blades, but something in her knew that was far from an option. the look in the stranger’s eyes was one of longing, but one of a woman who knew what it was really like to fly. still.
“ wanna go for a ride? ”
Fatigued, Cordelia was growing tired with each footstep she had to take down the streets. If anything, she needed a place to rest-- -- -- but where? A long sigh was let out of her lips as her eyes grazed over the surfaces of the streets for somewhere that seemed to be a plausible place to rest for the red head. She was out of luck at this very moment and that was very discontenting. It was times like this where she had wished her Pegasus wasn't as small as he was right now but, she had to carry on.
It felt as if somebody had stopped to call her. Naturally, the red head would draw her attention to the other red headed woman. A ride? That certainly sounded nice. At the very least her tired feet could get some rest but at the same time, she was not all that trusting of a stranger who had approached her out of the blue.
" A ride on your motorbike? " Cordelia had hoped that was the right term. She wasn't exactly sure what it was the only information she had access to was that it appeared similar to a bike in which she owned.
ᴘᴀʀᴀʟᴏᴜɢᴜᴇ ᴏᴏ5: ғᴀᴜx ᴘᴀs
"Aha, I should have assumed such.Their structure is not that different from horses, it would be odd for their dietary habits to be vastly different. Please, wait but a moment."
As he raised up his left arm, a white cloth that seemed to give off a faint glow unraveled and extended itself outwards. While its base was still on Faust’s arm, the part that had extended out formed a circle in the air. A runic symbol appeared within this circle, and from it, several long objects appeared. Each around 9 inches long, a bundle of several different colored carrots, some orange, some purple, some yellow and some white. While Faust was aware in modern times the common variant was orange, in his time the most commonly seen was the purple tint. Though her appearance was more similar to his time than that of the modern era, he would not wish to make assumptions. This coloring could only be seen from the tips and ends of the vegetable however, as the bundle itself was wrapped within a thick coating of green lettuce.
"I was unsure of the pigment natural to your region, but I can assure you that despite a small variation in texture, these are all as natural as can come. I would not wish to see such a beauteous creature be deprived of sustenance longer than needed. If anything else is needed, do not hesitate to ask. It would be nothing but a pleasure to help you with whatever you need."
“It’s not that different from the horses I have seen cavaliers and paladin ride. In fact, my husband is a cavalier and frequently our steeds would feast on the same meals when we are low on supplies.”
She had nodded at his directions and watched what the other was doing. Observing his notions, he seemed to be performing some form of magical acts. It was not every day that she would see people pull out vegetables out of the thin air. Yet, that amazed Cordelia very much as her eyes lit up at the sight. Bedazzled, the Pegasus knight could only be ever so thankful of the male who stood before her. After all, if it was not for him she would have probably had her Pegasus be in the mode of starvation for longer than what was considered healthy for him despite his immensely smaller stature. A sigh of relief was let out upon receiving the vegetables the other had made appear out of the air.
“That is fine, as long as the contents are not heavily disturbed and dangerous it is fine. I do wish to thank you for your incredibly kind acts. It is not often that people would offer to do such things to a stranger on the streets.” The first thing she did was feed the carrot to her Pegasus before looking back at the male. “Again, you have my gratitude for such kind acts. “
Cordelia’s kindness had been something Noire took merrily to heart. Hesitant at first, completely mystified by the fact that such a thing was offered to her. Her eyes clinking wildly before looking upon the other with a brimming smile. Hands tightened to her chest, finding herself relaxing as they spoke. ❝You mean that? If we are to have tea… I would make us some cakes then. It’d be a pity to just have tea… But that is such—I would love it. Perhaps, sometime soon?❞
Noire was one of Severa's best friends, it was only natural that Cordelia would become fond of the archer. Her uneasiness was something she had wished that she could soothe but Cordelia understood how difficult it would be to do so; thus she could only be there to do her best to be kind to the other.
"Of course I do, Noire. I have heard some amazing things about your cakes and pastries, it would be an honour if we were to make some together. Although I am not as skilled as you are I could make some snacks for the two of us too. "
The familiar flash of red hair sent a certain scorching through the dancer’s ribs, and it made him bold as he approached her, leaning causally against a nearby tree and remaining silent for a few moments before finally speaking up.
”You have good form,” he says smoothly, lifting chocolate eyes through silvery hair to get the woman’s attention. “And I speak of more than your performance in the last battle.” Checking his finely polished nails, Inigo offered the soldier a smooth smile. “Won’t you join me for a cup of tea?”
Red hair swaying along the flow of the air of the kingdom of Ylisse, Cordelia could be spot patrolling the city. Though it was not long until she had spotted a familiar face. Inigo, lady Olivia's son who have happened to be leaning against a nearby tree. She would then walk over to approach him but already, he had spoken before she could think of anything to use as a greeter.
"Well I--" a slight blush tainted her cheeks. The Pegasus knight knew about the other's tendency to make flirtatious remarks and yet, she had never expected to receive one herself. In awe, she was trying to think of things to say that would not come off as too blunt or too impolite. "Well, thank you Inigo. Of course I would love you join you for a cup of tea."
She was still not as used to investigating solo as she’d like to be. Her job was usually a two-person sort of deal. But here she was anyway. Really, it felt more like a solo effort as the Yatagarasu than an assignment.
Kay gives a grin in return. “Could say the same to you,” she quips lightly.
What was the person’s name she was supposed to see? Oh well, whomever they were, she had an appointment.
"Hey, Cordelia! I’m Kay Faraday…and I should have an appointment? But if they’re busy I’ll wait!"
This individual sure seemed bubbly enough, it was enough to bring some colour into Cordelia's seemingly dull occupation. A smile tugged at her lips before she would look down at the appointment book. There were several books piled on her desk, but only the one in front of her mattered at that point. After all, it was the key to all the potential appointments her boss would have had.
" Faraday..." She would utter to herself as she flipped through the pages, scrutinizing each column with extreme caution. After all, this was important and she wouldn't want to have the client running off and her boss losing his opportunity at whatever he was doing.
Then, she say the name 'Kay Faraday. A relieved sigh left her lips before she glanced back up at the bubbly girl. "Yes, yes you do have one. Though, he is quite busy at the moment. He should be with you in about thirty minutes. If you wish to wait here you are welcomed to do so. We have tea, coffee, water, and some selection of pop. "
