Let's Misbehave [D2 LE, Wild Ride, OPEN]

[Lucinia Malveaux]

"Lord Tenebrous does not seem to be the type that's shy to deliver one if it's required." Alister mused, looking at the unfortunate sith lord surronded by the mob. "Still I wouldn't say they are causing trouble. They're just being young..." Which was troublesome in a completely different.

"But as I was saying.. It's a pleasure to make your acquiatance, Lady Malveaux." He continued dipping into a bit deeper of a bow in recognition of her standing. 'It's a wonder to see not one but two of your esteemed house in attendance this evening, our hostess must be truly blessed."

"Oh, I'm sure she'll get around to trouble soon enough." Lucinia smirked. "But you're right; Lord Tenebrous is quite formidable. I'm certain she can handle it."

Her red lips curled up at the bow. "You do have a way with words, Alister. Perhaps I shall allow you to address me as Lucinia. I think this party isn't so formal as for me to insist on Lady Malveaux.

She glanced around, lips pursing uncertainly. In fact, she wasn't quite sure what one did at these parties.

[Dapper Dog]

Alister gets ping on his comm from <unknown> that reads:

-The Job is ready 3500 credits, data removal, high risk, 1500 credit bonus. Int?-

[Remmington Thalalas]

"You'd have to be pretty special.....the taste is good though."
She shoots Shelzais and Remmington some wide barrelled finger guns.

Remmington notes the moving censor bars and simply smiles. "Nice to make your acquaintance as well miss. You come out to a lot of these parties?"

[Alister Dravvad]

"Oh, I'm sure she'll get around to trouble soon enough." Lucinia smirked. "But you're right; Lord Tenebrous is quite formidable. I'm certain she can handle it."

Her red lips curled up at the bow. "You do have a way with words, Alister. Perhaps I shall allow you to address me as Lucinia. I think this party isn't so formal as for me to insist on Lady Malveaux.

She glanced around, lips pursing uncertainly. In fact, she wasn't quite sure what one did at these parties.

"Then Lucinia it is." He replied dipping his head in thanks; when a powerful woman told you to call them by name you did. "But yes, those young ladies do seem to be imbibing quite a large quantity of alcohol. It makes you wonder if that's the point of all this. To get drunk and have a 'good time'." He shook his head. "It's been far too long since I've been to one of these gatherings to know for certain."

Alister gets ping on his comm from <unknown> that reads:

-The Job is ready 3500 credits, data removal, high risk, 1500 credit bonus. Int?-

Conversation was interrupted by a distracting pinging of his com, and Alister frowned. "My apologies, Lady Lucinia. This shoudl take but a moment." A quick glance at the message had him typing out a fast reply.

-Yes, Send Details-

Before putting away the comm with it's function sent to vibrate. "I silenced it, so it shouldn't bother us again."

[Lucinia Malveaux]

Lucinia gave a vague wave of one hand. "If my sister wishes to drink until she passes out and throws up, no doubt with accompanying hangover in the morning, it's no business of mine. So long as she does not bring back anyone to the estate that I wouldn't care to have there." Another glance around, this time more sternly disapproving, as she apparently judged most of those present unworthy.

She waited politely, and even almost patiently, as Alister received and sent a message. Only a slight thinness of her red lips showed any irritation.

When he finished, she turned back with raised eyebrow. "Of course. Business?"

[Alister Dravvad]

"Yes, some people have the most inconvient timing." He replied with a shake of his head. "Though I share some fault as well, I should of silenced it when I arrived." Instead of hoping it might save him from some inconvient conversation.

"Could I get you another drink to make it up to you perhaps?" She didn't seem the type to drink excessievly though. "Or is there perhaps something else?" There was no more need to carry on the conversation about young girls getting intoxicated and brining home men after all.

[Lucinia Malveaux]

"Hmmm..." Once more, Lucinia's eyes narrowed, but she didn't press. Just yet.

Again, her red lips curled up at the offer. "A drink would be lovely. Wine, perhaps. Something red. When you return, you can tell me just what sort of business you are in. No Sith, I see. Military, perhaps?"

[Alister Dravvad]

He thought about answering right away, but the lady did say after he returned, so he dipped his head in reply. "I'll be just a moment." Maybe she would get just as drunk as her little sister with some effort.

His return was quick, and he held two glasses, one for r him the other for the lady. The wine was a deep red in color, perhaps a pinot noir. "Private sector would likely be the best explanation for it. Though I have done some work for the military. As to what I do, I'm an Engineer and Scientist."

[Lucinia Malveaux]

Lucinia accepted the glass with a cool nod. She lifted it to eye level, studying it carefully a few moments, before bringing it to her lips for a tiny sip. Her eyes narrowed, but she gave Alister a nod. "A fine choice, Alister." She said.

"Oh?" Both eyebrows went up, an interest expression on Lucinia's aristocratic features. "And what sort of science do you do? I myself have been published. Archaeology and ancient Sith lore. Although I hesitate to use the word ancient with how relevant it seems to be in modern times."

She took another tiny sip of her wine. If she was going to get drunk, it was clearly going to take a long time.

[Alister Dravvad]

"Thank you, Lucinia." He replied, returnign the nod respectfully. The selection wasn't the best but he had done what he could.

"Chemistry and physics mainly, though I've been known to touch on other subjects as well. Sith lore among those, whether you wish to call it ancient or otherwise. It was really very much semantics at this point." He paused thoughtfully. Had he studied her published work? He couldn't quite recall which made it unlikely.

[Lucinia Malveaux]

"Thank you, Lucinia." He replied, returnign the nod respectfully. The selection wasn't the best but he had done what he could.

"Chemistry and physics mainly, though I've been known to touch on other subjects as well. Sith lore among those, whether you wish to call it ancient or otherwise. It was really very much semantics at this point." He paused thoughtfully. Had he studied her published work? He couldn't quite recall which made it unlikely.

"Oh really?" Once more, Lucinia's eyebrows went up. "Have you ever done any study of that sort on Korriban? That's where most of my work has been."

She smiled. "It really is semantics. Even though it's all in the past, the field is constantly developing. Just Korriban is enough for a lifetime of study, and that's a single planet in our Empire." She waved a hand. "Still, I wanted to see a new place. Perhaps encounter some different Sith ghosts."

[Alister Dravvad]

"Sadly not." He tended to leave Korriban to the Sith. They had their school there after all, amongst other things, and keeping out of there way was probably wiser eight days out of ten. "I don't leave my labs all that often."

"I do wish you luck with that, I can't say how many you might fine here, but there might be a few sites close by." His interest had been more academic for the most part, and he hadn't done much field study.

[Raela Ausar]

"Indeed," she replied with interest, eyebrows rising. "I find that social functions are social functions - a necessary evil, but with free alcohol, at least."

He returned his full attention to this conversation "Yes I cant remember the last time I went to a party before these past two weeks and I've been to three since then. They can be truly draining experiences."

The large shistavanen spread his empty hands, "I don't drink." He was beginning to wonder if it was boredom that was driving these people to imbibe, when he could think of several far more interesting things to do.

"That's fair," she replied with a shrug. "Regardless, we're here and may as well find an engaging pastime for it. Suggestions?"

[Lucinia Malveaux]

"Sadly not." He tended to leave Korriban to the Sith. They had their school there after all, amongst other things, and keeping out of there way was probably wiser eight days out of ten. "I don't leave my labs all that often."

"I do wish you luck with that, I can't say how many you might fine here, but there might be a few sites close by." His interest had been more academic for the most part, and he hadn't done much field study.

"Hmmm..." Lucinia's eyes narrowed. "I see."

After a few moments, she waved a hand. "Well then, tell me something of your research. I may focus on Sith lore, but I have dabbled in other areas."

[Tyr]

"That's fair," she replied with a shrug. "Regardless, we're here and may as well find an engaging pastime for it. Suggestions?"

Sounding entirely unconvinced, "Lady Sek suggested that I should try ...dancing? She described it as a lot like fighting," he left off the other f-word he'd used the previous night.

[Shelzais Sek]

"Oh dead gods, Jerex is at it again, is he?' Shelzais rolled her eyes melodramatically. "If he breaks something this time, I'm making him handle the repairs. I'm not some sort of janitor." She giggled and finished her drink, setting the empty glass down unsteadily on a random table (where it wobbled over onto its side and rolled a few centimeters before bumping to a stop against an ashtray).

"Well, my dear Jan, the obvious answer to your question would be... me." She flashed Jan a sultry, predatory grin. "But would that be too obvious? Beyond good taste?"

Shel quirked a bejeweled brow ridge at this fellow who seemed to be treating her boat party with waaay more formality than it deserved. "...Interesting hat."

((Sorry Shel! I thought I'd replied to this ages ago))

"Oh....really?"
She sticks out a hand and retrieves the rolling glass before holding it up to lick the last few drops out, giving the Sith a wiiiiiide smirk

"I mean, I've done some pretty wild things in my time."
He dress starts displaying a video that appears to just be a bunch of moving censor bars.

"You'd have to be pretty special.....the taste is good though."
She shoots Shelzais and Remmington some wide barrelled finger guns.

"False modesty isn't one of my many character flaws, I assure you." Shelzais chuckled, a purring sort of sound. "You're a lot more fun than most corporate types, aren't you."

She reached over and took hold of the empty cup in Jan's hand with impeccably manicured fingers. "Now, you needn't scavenge here... there's plenty to go around, you know."

Remmginton tips his hat. "Thank you. Something that I picked up on Nar Shaddaa. Great for keeping the oily rain there out of your hair."

He smiles. "Nice barge you got here. Thanks for the invitation. Remmington Thalalas, a pleasure to meet you."

"My pl... well, you're welcome, Mr. Thalalas." Shel's well-lubricated tongue stumbles a little over the reduplicated vowels in the name. "I''m sure you can find some amusement around here to knock that hat off for you. No rain in Varas Point in this season."

[Jan Melmoar]

Remmington notes the moving censor bars and simply smiles. "Nice to make your acquaintance as well miss. You come out to a lot of these parties?"

Echoing the hosts greetings
"First time for me actually, I used to never be a party girl."

"False modesty isn't one of my many character flaws, I assure you." Shelzais chuckled, a purring sort of sound. "You're a lot more fun than most corporate types, aren't you."

She reached over and took hold of the empty cup in Jan's hand with impeccably manicured fingers. "Now, you needn't scavenge here... there's plenty to go around, you know."

"Oh corporate types are always fun.....just in different ways. If past ones haven't learn how to enjoy a real party well........"
She shrugs widely, nearly slapping a passing waiter-bot
"I suppose I'll have to make up for the slack....and you're right about the scavenging although-"
She makes her eyes very big
"In a room full of such great and powerful sith does that mean the little corporate rep it the prey?"

[Alister Dravvad]

"Hmmm..." Lucinia's eyes narrowed. "I see."

After a few moments, she waved a hand. "Well then, tell me something of your research. I may focus on Sith lore, but I have dabbled in other areas."

"Well it runs the gambit of technology and science for the most part. Often enough I'm testing a new theory of something or the other." He sipped his wine.

"Earlier today I was working on a new configuration of a blasters focusing lens. I though if I can change the angles in which the blaster focuses energies I could produce a narrower faster firing beam."

[Jaheem Abasi]

"That's fair," she replied with a shrug. "Regardless, we're here and may as well find an engaging pastime for it. Suggestions?"

Sounding entirely unconvinced, "Lady Sek suggested that I should try ...dancing? She described it as a lot like fighting," he left off the other f-word he'd used the previous night.

Jaheem chuckled "I suppose it depends on the kind of dance. I have no skill in it but would not be opposed to trying it of you would like. Unless the lady would be a better teacher." He said giving a smile to Raela.

[Remmington Thalalas]

"Everyone has to start somewhere. Remmington Thalalas by the way." He offers his hand in greeting to the new party girl.
