“ you wouldn’t happen to like TEA – would you ? ” two cups of steaming liquid were held in each hand as she caught aisling at the end of the queue. she extended it like a peace offering. “ it was supposed to be for leonor, but now i think she’s in the throws of an engagement, no, post-wedding, i guess, party and all that ... and there’s no milk, like you like ? “

          with two drinks in either hand, scout made her way over to the irish princess and sat down across from her, offering one of the glasses. “i figured it would be easier to bring the drink to you so you didn’t have to move much,” she explained, referring the mermaid tail. “i absolutely love this, by the way!”

“oh jesus, aisling -- there you are.” margot was out of breath, having just about run around the party in search of the other princess. “i came with a date tonight, prince ilija of croatia, and we’re engaged, here’s the ring,” she held out her hand. all of her words were coming out in rapid succession, as if someone might pull aisling away and tell her the rest before margot could. “it all happened really quickly and it wasn’t official until today so i couldn’t tell anyone i’m sorry i hope no one told you yet.” having gotten everything out, she finally took a breath. this panicked, frazzled margot was one that only few people would ever see. “god, please tell me you didn’t know. i wanted you to find out from me, but i can only imagine that word travels like wildfire at these things.” [ @highnessaisling ]

she can see a blonde in the distance. if she looks long enough to figure out if it’s olimpia or fanni, or even verona di savoia, she would be staring. a pretty smile for acquaintances is easier to conjure than it is for family, so she steps back, intending to turn away and engage the nearest person in deep conversation. the collision she feels at her back however, makes her choice for her. “ oh hi, ”   whites flash, lips spreading as brightly as can be. “ you’re — ”  who is she ?  “ um you were at the event ! ”  events are a dime a dozen, the girl will remind her hopefully.  “ you looked very nice, i spotted you. how are you doing ? ”   [ @highnessaisling​ ]
