*looks over at Med’an and nods* He does look rather excited doesn’t he? Suppose he’s just ready to show off his talents to everyone… hope it goes a bit better than the Guardian test, I wouldn’t want him getting upset again.

*decides to start things off by having a go at a medium-difficulty routine, racking up a reasonable score* Phew! Alright who’s next– oh, Med’an, come on, we need to make this fair! You’ll put everyone off with your perfect scores! *he winks*

*smirks* Oh? Well, I suppose I could make it more difficult for myself. *he rips off a little strip of his cape and ties it around his eyes, directing Liam to choose the absolute hardest possible routine, which he then completes. Facing backwards. His score is utterly perfect still, and he manages to include little variations that aren’t picked up as errors. He finishes and takes the blindfold off, laughing in disbelief at the perfect score on the screen* Oh wow, I didn’t think that would work!

*had been expecting Med’an to fuck up badly, but is just utterly stunned when he does it perfectly anyway, not even able to come up with some response about that because what the fuck*

*claps for Med’an along with the rest of the crowd, impressed* My, it looks like you had nothing to worry about after all! What a talented little thing he is.

Dance mat’s all set up in the courtyard! Come on over, its going to get competitive!

*is practically buzzing with excitement*

guardianoftheparty

*wanders over with Katrana in slight interest, half internally hoping that Med’an somehow makes a fool of himself on the dancefloor, and looks over at Katrana* So, this should be rather interesting, shouldn’t it?

I’m sure it shall be. Ah, how sweet. Med’an looks so excited.

@guardianoftheparty:

*looks over the map* Hm, well perhaps we should go have a look at some of these games? Unless you feel like having something to eat first? It’s your choice.

–

Hm. Why not look at some games and work up an appetite that way? I’m interested to see the little dance and singing contests they’re throwing.

guardianoftheparty

That sounds like a good plan! Well, lets go have a look then. *holds out his hand for her to take*

*takes it, trying not to wince at how clammy his hand is*

*pulls her in slightly, as though in a half hug of comfort, though he’s terrible at that* Oh, I’m sure you’re a perfect parent yourself, don’t do yourself down like that! I mean I can’t say myself that I’m a perfect parent, but I’m sure you’re much better than I am.

–

*just about figures out what the hell Medivh meant to achieve with his weird half hug and smiles, relaxing her shoulders and pretending to take some comfort in it* Well, you’ve manage to keep your child alive so far. That’s more than I can say. And that really is quite the achievement, I’ve heard he was awfully frail as a child. Must be all the mismatched genes. He looks well enough now, but that sort of thing never truly goes away, does it? I can’t imagine how difficult that must be for you.

guardianoftheparty

*just bluffs his way through this* Oh well, I can’t really complain, but it can be difficult sometimes. But well, it’s just something I have to help him through as best I can, I mean he’s a lot better off now than he was when he was younger, but you never know with these things. *sighs sadly and shakes his head before smiling again* Sorry, shouldn’t bring the mood down like this, I mean this is a party, I shouldn’t be complaining!

*nods as he talks* It's a real shame. But you're right, this is hardly appropriate party-talk! The Greymanes have worked hard to do this place up, it would be a shame to let it go to waste. Shall we explore a bit? There's ever so much to do. *she holds the map Liam gave her out to him. It listed places to find specific food and drink, a wealth of games, both sporting and otherwise, music etc*

*is a bit put out by the sudden change in topic, but goes with it, internally not too pleased by the mention of Med’an* Ah yes, he is rather good at dancing isn’t he? One of his many talents of course. I’m sure it’d be very entertaining!

–

I’m sure it would. *she smiles* It’s nice to hear you call him talented. After his… well, rather bad day at the Guardian test the talk surrounding him has been, ah, less than kind. It’s good to know he has his father in his corner, it must be difficult.

guardianoftheparty

Well, I want to encourage him, and at the end of the day being encouraged by a parent is much better than the condemnation of strangers isn’t it? I’m sure that’ll be more of a boost to him than anything really.

Oh, most certainly. And how good of you to do so, when the same luxury was never granted to you at his age. I suppose as parents it comes to us to avoid the mistakes our own parents made when we were children. *she sighs a little sadly* Though I don't have to worry about ruining mine. And I doubt I'd be able to ruin yours. He's been very well raised. *she smirks and sips her drink*

*notices the glare from Liam and just raises his eyebrows in response, before turning his attention back to Katrana* Hm really? Now that sounds exceptionally interesting! *picks one of them up and tries it, nodding in approval* Wow, it does work rather well, what an interesting enchantment! Simple, I assume, but effective enough. Perhaps I should look into doing something similar for one of my parties, though perhaps slightly more than just giving the feeling of flying.

—

That sounds intriguing, I’d love to try what you made. But I must say, I do like the simplicity of this one. It’s minimalistic, just a little treat for the senses along with the sweetness. Some things work better on a smaller scale, I find. Not to say that more extravagant magic is any less, of course!

guardianoftheparty

Well I mean yes, sometimes smaller things can be better, of course, but the majesty of bigger magical spectacles is always something to behold! I’m sure I can show you that with ease at some point, though it might have to wait until we’re somewhere a little more private. *he winks at her*

*has to stop herself from almost choking on her drink* Ah, well, I'm sure that can be arranged. *she is handed a map by Liam and looks it over, grateful for the distraction* Goodness, they've opened the whole manor for this! How sweet, they've put a dancefloor on the landing. I'm sure we'll see your son there. He's quite talented at it, I hear.

*as he’s been doing with most people he’s come across since Kil’jaeden gave him the power, he rather vaguely looks into Katrana’s mind, but doesn’t find anything out of the ordinary or strange, so just continues with the conversation, suspecting absolutely nothing* Well, I unfortunately had a few setbacks with my recovery, but thankfully it’s all done now. Which I suppose is very good, since you won’t have to be lonely any more now I’m back to full health! *he smirks and puts his arm around her as he says that*

—

*smiles through the persistent disgust that pretty much everyone gets whenever Medivh is nearby* That is good news. Although I’d hate to pull you away from your work too much– there must be an awful lot to do, especially with Argus in the sky.

guardianoftheparty

*shakes his head, still just smiling at her* Oh it’s fine, you don’t have to worry about that. I mean, what could be more important to me than spending time with you?

*raises an eyebrow and chuckles* Saving the world, I’d assume? But I’m sure you and your mother have the situation under control already. Ah, but enough about that. Its a party! You must try the cocktails they have– Queen Greymane is quite a talented mage, and many of the drinks are enchanted.

guardianoftheparty

Of course we have it under control, I mean we’re Guardians, aren’t we? It’d be rather hopeless if we didn’t have everything completely under control already! But yes, enchanted cocktails you say? Now that sound like my kind of drink! Lead the way then!

*smiles and does so, leading Medivh to the drinks table. A lot of people are gathered here, including Liam, who is handing out maps of the manor to people with important party locations clearly marked. He gives Medivh a slight glare that Katrana does not notice* Ah, the blue one is particularly lovely. It's enchanted to make you feel as though you're flying while you drink it.

@guardianoftheparty: *his smile actually changed when Katrana walks over, turning a lot more genuine* Ah, it really is lovely isn’t it? But I have to say, not nearly as lovely as you look today. *he winks at her at that* So, how have you been since I last saw you? --- *chuckles at the compliment* I've been well, though a little lonely, to be honest. It's very good to see you up and about again, even if it did take quite some time for the damage to heal.

guardianoftheparty

*teleports into Gilneas where the party’s being held, not particularly looking too pleased about being here, especially when he doesn’t immediately see anyone he knows, but steels himself and strides right on in, putting on that horrid cheesy smile of his as he goes*

*spots Medivh wandering around and sighs, steeling herself and planting her usual fake smile on her face before approaching him* Oh, Guardian, you made it! Rather lovely what they've done here, is it not?

@guardianoftheparty: Thank you, it’s very kind of you to think of me like that, and I promise, I’ll try to be a lot more interesting next time you visit! *he winks again at that, but then yawns again, his eyes drifting shut* I… *whatever he was going to say next is lost, his words a mumble as he actually goes to sleep near instantly, the sedative acting as intended* --- *the moment Medivh drifts off she wastes no time replanting the dragon eggs around the chamber, tucking them into every available hiding spot. That done, she heads to the balcony, vaults over the railing and transforms, flying off*

#thank god I didn't have to fuck him this time

@guardianoftheparty:

Hm, I suppose I should drink it now then, since you did come all this way to bring it for me! Thank you though, for coming to visit. It does mean a lot to me that you care enough to. *he smiles at her, and then opens up the potion and drinks it, before relaxing against the pillows behind his head* Uh, would you like me to get Moroes to show you out? I wouldn’t want you to accidentally get lost in the tower of course.

Oh, that won’t be necessary– my brother will fly up to the balcony and collect me in a short while. There’s no need to trouble your servant, he seems ever so busy. Thank you for the offer, though.

guardianoftheparty

Well I’m sure it’d be no bother to him, but if you’re sure! *yawns, seeming to already be drifting off to sleep, unable to fight it, though he doesn’t seem suspicious of it* Sorry, I guess I’m more tired than I thought I was! Maybe sleep is probably the best idea right now, as you said.

Don't worry Guardian, get your rest. The sooner you're better, the sooner we can have a more... interesting visit. *she smiles* I'll keep an eye out for any competent healers I know and see if any would come to help your recovery along.
