Arin snorted and took a drink of her own whiskey, smiling as the liquid burned down her throat and she studied the political idiots with all the money on the dance floor.
"Really Tokarev, it's not that bad." She said absently in response to his comment about the whiskey.

Deimos poured another and downed it straight away, he stood up, bowed and offered his gloved hand to Arin 'Would you care to dance?' He didn't know much about Arin, but she seemed at least worthy of his attention for the time being, maybe even a romantic interest.

Arin looked at his hand then shrugged and downed the last of her whiskey before putting the glass down on the table and resting her slender hand gently in his.
"I believe I will, since there is nothing better to do here." She said.

Deimos placed his other hand on her hip and slowly danced with her. The band was playing a slow melancholy tune. Deimos knew this song, he had danced to it before, a long time ago with someone else he had loved. The other dancers moved in synchronisation, as was the custom of this annual ball. Others had practiced for this ball weeks prior to it, determined to make an impression on the other people here He brought himself back to the present and focused on his dance partner 'So, Arin, tell me about yourself, I hardly know anything about you'

Arin raised an eyebrow and smirked a little.
"Neither shall you know much more. Though for the sake of politeness I believe I will answer your question a bit. I used to be a thief in England, before I got shipped off and ended up here. I stole my sword from a Japanese man and killed him in the process soon after arriving. That's when I joined Sceithians." She replied lightly, as if speaking of small matters such as dress or other useless chit-chat.

Deimos gave a low chuckle, this girl was particularly amusing and very interesting. He wondered if he should tell her about Tanya. No, she doesn't need to know about her, not yet anyway. That was a bit of his past that not many people should know about, it would be dangerous 'I see that you like an air of mystery about you' He lowered her down at the dip in the music 'Would I have to torture you to find out the rest' He was not serious about torturing her, there no was no need for that of course.

Arin gave a razor-blade smile, her eyes sparking with a bit of mischeif.
"Or perhaps I know the value of keeping my mouth shut about anything anyone may be able to use against me." She replied easily, her movements as they danced graceful.

Deimos smirked, she has such a nice smile. 'That would only happen if you had skeletons in the closet' The music stopped for a few moments while the band prepared for a new song. He bowed to Arin. 'Well at least you can dance' The new singer stepped up on stage, she had a light tan to her delicate skin, working well with her short auburn hair and green eyes. She wore a dark purple dress and a necklace encrusted with rubies. Deimos squinted, she looked familiar.
The band started a slow, more depressing tune, the singer opened her lips and sang in a sweet, yet husky voice. The words he could not recognize, most likely latin. 'Aspirat primo, fortuna, labori' The small nose.... 'Me duce tutus eris' The way her hair shines in the light... 'Vox populi vox dei' The slender arms 'Ad maiorem dei gloriam' No....it couldnt be Tatiana, how could she know he was here, why would she be here? 'Ad infinitum'

Arin nodded in reply to his comment on her dancing skills. She then followed his suddenly distracted gaze to the singer on the stage.
"Someone you know?" She asked with a smirk, hiding her inner laughter.

The woman in the purple dress finished her song and bowed before the clapping crowd. When she rose up the caught Deimos' eye and smirked. She stepped off the stage and around a corner into the dressing rooms. Deimos was brought out of his stupor by Arin' comment. He cleared his throat, his voice shaking slightly 'Ahem, well, um' He looked around furtively 'I'll be back in a minute, he started towards the dressing rooms, his pace quick. He had to talk to her, find out what she was doing here. He knew her well, she must want something from him.

Arin chuckled as she made her way back to the whiskey. Another woman might have felt insulted by Tokarev's sudden distraction but she felt no such thing. He may be a nice distraction but still, he was most likely much older than her. Not that that really meant much in the long run, but she wasn't interested in such things at the moment. She poured herself another drink and sipped at it while watching the people on th dance floor with a quiet smirk.

Deimos placed his hand on the door of the dressing room and sighed. Should he confront her, should he just walk away?. He shook his head and took a deep breath and opened the door.
Tatiana had just changed by the time Deimos opened the door. He stood there, staring at her intently. For a minute they stood there in silence until Deimos spoke. She was wearing a red dress with gold dragons on the side of it. She still as beautiful as ever 'Its interesting to see you here Tatiana' She smirked and picked a small bag on the floor. 'Same to you Deimos' There was a awkward silence until she spoke up 'I saw that pretty young thing out there, I see you have already moved on' Deimos frowned at her 'I dont see why I shouldnt have, I had no reason to stay with you any more' She put a hand up to her heart and made a mock gasp 'Oh that hurts' Deimos sighed 'Just tell me why you are here'

Arin leaned against the cool stone wall, nursing the last glass of whiskey and watching the dancers with a bored expression. Really, if things didn't get interesting soon she might leave. Or she might stay just to make fun of these rich idiots in her head. Either way would be vaguely entertaining.

Tatiana smirked and tilted her head to one side 'We have plenty of time discuss what I want' She stepped up to Deimos and ran her hands across his chest 'But in the meantime.....' Deimos shivered in lust, he could smell her intoxicating perfume wreathed around her form. He gripped her wrists and pushed them back to her 'No, I dont need another emotional investment in you' Deimos stepped backwards, with great effort to not pounce on her. Tatiana gave an annoyed huff and picked up a small black bag on the bench She opened the back door and stepped down, as she closed the door she smirked playfully 'See you around' She closed the door and the echo of her footsteps sounded as she crossed some stairs Deimos sighed and walked out of the dressing room, he leaned against the stone wall next to Arin.

"Ah, hello Tokarev. Have a nice talk with your friend?" Arin asked as he leaned next to her, her expression somewhere between a smirk and a laugh. She downed the last gulp of whiskey and placed the glass down, scanning the crowd absently.
