Ajax felt a small sort of relief when it was clear that Terran hadn’t picked up on him checking the other male out, the corner of his lips quirking up in a way that showed off his dimples as the banter started up again once Terran sat down.
Ajax let his wings fan out, stretching them slightly but making sure that they wouldn’t hit his surprisingly very tolerant companion, and looked in the tiny fractured mirror image of himself in the glass cup, not being able to help admiring himself just for a second.
Could you blame him? With his features and his wonderful sense of fashion, he could’ve been a model. Well, if he hadn’t almost been arrested half a dozen times before his skills were taken advantage of by the Royal Avian family in exchange for him not thrown in prison. Could you even imagine it? He wouldn’t even be able to do his daily routine or wear his amazing outfits!
He let himself look for a few moments at his black sleeveless muscle tee and tight ripped jeans paired with leather braided bracelets and two silvers studs, before turning back to Terran.
“Venom? In a very temporary moment of intelligence, I’m going to go ahead and assume it’s not going to kill me or do anything else that I’m sure you wouldn’t mind happening to me, out of the angelic goodness of my heart of course.” He joked.
“Hmm, well I’d love to see a stronger one then Handsome, I am quite able to hold my liquor you know.”

Mikael Ivanov guarded the large and extravantly decorated ballroom from beside the main doors, his eyes following his Queen, unable to look away from her for more than even a few seconds, his gaze always finding its way back to her. He wore his metal and leather guard uniform and wished that he could’ve been one of the handsome nobles asking their favored ladies and lads to dance, having fun instead of slowly but surely tiring out and pining after a hopeless romance. He ran a subtly scarred hand through his dirty blond curls and watched as his Queen offered a dance to the woman behind her and shot down his envy immediately, brightening the smile on his face and forcing himself to turn his attention to a young woman hiding in the corner of the wide hall, evidently not wanting to be here at all. He turned to her and offered her a kind wave in greeting, determined to not ruin the whole night for himself, and maybe make it better for someone else as well.
“Hello there, are you doing alright?” He asked politely, hoping to make her feel better.
“I understand that it’s most likely a less than pleasant night for you, but the hors d'oeuvres are delicious if you’d want to give them a try?”

>>Belladonna<<
They absolutely hated functions like this. Where they had to pretend that it wasn’t a miserably boring experience to talk to all of these nobles and royals without at least poisoning ten of them. It was a quite unappealing thing to experience every time something dreadfully mundane happened to each and every “Royal” person when the parties back home were so much more entertaining. The blood-curdling screams and bright smiles covering horrified tears just really hit the spot.
Nevertheless, Bel's smile was bright and kind, a perfect imitation of an angel coming down to Earth to grace the poor and mundane humans who adorably had no idea that they were coming down to destroy them, not help them. It was almost enough to make someone feel bad. Someone far less sadistic than the ruler of the Arachnid Kingdom of course.
They had chosen to enter the ball in their male form, wearing a long and flowing pale rose dress made of silk and lace that exquisitely showed off their muscles and curvy but lean figure, their long and quartz-like eight spider arms sticking out from their back like parts of a statue carved by a marble-worker. Their two more human-like appendages were delicately clasped in front of their abdomen, waving elegantly to the miserable nobles and royals who looked at them like they were no one to be afraid of, like they could do no wrong.
Just how Bel liked it.
Their long and soft white hair was tied back in a French braid woven through with silver silk ribbons and rested on their left shoulder. Even braided and set over their shoulder, it reached their waist, swaying softly as they glided on the floor, making their rounds and pretending to be deeply engrossed in each and every terribly boring person they spoke to, making note of whatever weaknesses they had picked up on.
Bel had thought about killing at least 13 people here multiple times, but reminded themself of the plan to at least temporarily satiate their thirst for blood. You don't want to mess this up just yet, don't you? It would be an absolute shame if all that planning was to go to waste.
