for @ofthcrnedrcses‘ hybrid verse muse: el.ijah mika.elson | verse: 1700s
The masque was in full swing. His brother did love a good party, and Niklaus was determined to thoroughly enjoy himself that night. Elijah wasn’t as eager to party as his younger brother, but he wasn’t about to be a spoilsport. So, he spent most of the night greeting and talking to guests, slowly establishing connections that would prove useful to their family later on.
One of the newer arrivals was a young girl ( she seemed to be with two slightly older boys...her brothers? ), and he paused in front of her, giving her the mandatory bow that was expected.
“Welcome to our home, my lady. It is an honor to have you here.”
The slight tickle that he felt from her aura was familiar: it reminded him of how his mother’s magic felt when she was trying to rein it in. Interesting.
