ｈｏｕｓｅ ｏｆ ｎｉｇｈｔ

_{Eros snickered as Jax's eyes widened. The fifth former was a bit off guard, before he bit his lip. "Um...uh...yeah, sure," he furrowed his brows, stepping away from Eros. His blue eyes met Reese's and he took a few subtle steps towards her, clearing his throat and stuffing his hands in his pockets.}

"Come on then..." Reese murmured, pulling one of Jax's hands out of his pockets. She took his hand and led him out of the dining hall. She smiled when she was enveloped in the cool night air. She still had hold of Jax's hand when her eyes closed against a gentle breeze.

_{Faye skipped backstage, ready to perform. She nodded to Luke and Rykon, heading towards a empty corner where she'd stashed her guitar. That was Faye's gift; she was musically talented, blessed by Nyx with the ability to learn any number of instruments in a small amount of time - even vocal instruments. Faye popped the locks on the acoustic guitar's case, running her fingers lightly over the smooth surface. Her gift stirred in her heart, a slight pang in her chest. Faye flattened her hand against the guitar's surface and concentrated for a moment, allowing her gift to flow from her heart and soul, travel down her arm, and flood the guitar. In her mind's eye, she saw music - she saw swirls and designs made by notes dancing, creating music and sound. After about ten seconds, Faye opened her eyes and allowed her power to return to her heart and sat back, satisfied.}

_{Jax chuckled when she stopped to breathe in the air. "Where are you taking me?" one of his eyebrows lifted, a smirk on his face. He watched her closely, before his gaze fell down to their hands and then to the ground.}

[Goldie]

Reese smirked, standing on her toes to murmur in his ear "What? You don't think I just want you to myself for a while?" She let her warm breath tickle his ear before stepping back a bit. "Well I'm taking you to watch my bestfriend do..a thing? Not sure yet. But it'll be fun and I wanna get to know you and you need to be social so I'm dragging you there. Please?" she asked, smiling up sweetly at him.

_{Jax smiled slightly down at her, his fingers trailing to her chin. His eyes watched her lips, before he cleared his throat and dropped his hand. He took his other hand back and stuffed them both in his pockets, stepping a bit back. "C'mon, we should go to wherever you're bringing me," he said stiffly, glancing around before he impatiently gazed back at her, an expectant look in his eyes.}

[Goldie]

Reese's eyes widened only slightly before relaxing to his touch. She watched as he put his hands into his pockets. "Alright. It's this way. Faye said she saved us front seats." She looked at her watch. "Oh crap! It's suppose to be starting now!" She started jogging to the auditorium.

_{Rykon strode onto the stage with proud, practiced movements. "It is my great privilege to begin this showcase of gifts blessed by our Goddess Nyx. Each of these fledglings has something they are proud of and wish to show you. I am more than proud of each and every one of them." His gaze bored into the crowd. "I will not tolerate bad behavior. Should you attempt to 'boo' a student, you will deal with me. And now, without further adeu, we begin with one of my most promising students, Luke."}

[Leo]

_{Jax sniggered and followed after, his long legs working fast to keep up with her. He never went above a power walk however, following Reese to where the event was being held.}

[Goldie]

Reese sat down as soon as Luke walked onto the stage. He had a gleaming sword in his hand, the silver reflecting the lights pointing to the stage. He bowed to his mentor, a grin on his face as his deep green eyes glinted.
