Deceit, so natural

slipping through the cracks of nobility unnoticed wasn't actually the difficult part of his job ; that was easy . he just had that type of face , the type most people assumed belonged wherever it was he needed to belong . nodding , smiling , it all came like second nature to him . the lying , the intrigue ... it wasn't that different from back home . rivvil are so needy , though . it's exhausting , the way everyone wants his attention , all night , all the time . he should've probably listened to mystery , chosen a more inconspicuous outfit , but he likes to look pretty , he likes the sound of jewelry clattering like cymbals as he saunters through the room . they grab his arm , they touch his back . he's thoroughly considered gutting the next person who tries to run their fingers through his hair . there's laughter in his head now , he's pouting , and zero lessons have been learned .

wisps of white sway down the small of his back , disappearing into the fabric of his gown as he struts off to the balcony for air . don't you just hate when your target is late for the festivities ? to think he's put on all this effort for them and they can't even bother to show on time to time to die ... he huffs , propping his elbows against the stone , bathing in the gauzy moonlight . it's a rather pretty view , not that he'd ever admit it so without being waterboarded . what's that ? his head lolls , intrigued by the roses . more surface plants ? were these edible ? such a bright , lively color . same shade as his eyes ... vhaal'krin leans over the petals , scrutinizing them curiously before reaching for the stem , regret immediately scrunching his face as he pricks his finger on a thorn . ❝ ow ... stupid plant ... ❞ he grumbles , sucking on the bruise . ❝ are these a trap or something ? ❞

As his eyes scan the room, he finds them stopping on a flash of white. Long white hair, pretty white gown and covered in pretty... expensive looking trinkets. He wonders if the other would notice if one went... missing. As pretty as they looked on him, perhaps a couple would look far better on Verity.

Pushing himself off the wall, he'd slip through the crowd. It was much easier without wings, having used alter self just to remove them for the moment.

He'd pause for a moment, before stepping out onto the balcony, watching as the elf pricked his finger on one of the rose bushes outside. Immediately, it gave him a little idea. With only a spell and a cantrip, he had a little orb of water spawn in his hand, it's shape changing to resemble the shape of a rose before he'd freeze it.

"Prickly but pretty. Perhaps you'd like something a little less sharp?" He would move to the side of him, leaning against the stone railing beside him, offering the almost crystal looking rose to the elf. "I made it just for you."
