    drinking the worries away
















“Uncle Kris! Uncle Kris!”

Kristian had just finished tying his tie when his nephews burst in, dressed almost to the nines themselves.
“Hey, squirts, where are your pants?”
he joked, crouching down to embrace them. With a mighty
“Raaaaah!”
he stood, effectively throwing his nephews over his shoulders while they kicked their legs and laughed.

“Are you boys interrupting poor Kristian?” His older sister, Sigrid, leaned against the doorframe, looking dazzling in an elegant red gown that just about matched Kris’s suit. Which made sense, since he would have both his sisters on his arms as the Pedersens entered Central Hall tonight.

Sigrid inclined her head out the door, and as soon as Kris set his nephews down, they ran out giggling, presumably to find their pants. She made her way over to him, straightening the tie and smoothing the fronts of his vest. “Nervous about tonight?”

“Why would I be? It’s just a party celebrating my future marriage to a woman I still haven’t met.”
Kris tugged at his shirt collar, feeling a bit warm.
“At least it’s for all the nobles and not just me.”


“I’m sorry, Kris. You shouldn’t have to do this.” She sighed and tugged gently at his long blond curls, the same color as her own. “We got to marry whoever we wanted, but you…”

“I told you it’s fine. At least this way, I’ll know for sure it’s not for my looks or my money.”
He kissed his sister’s forehead and then rested his own against her, smiling at her reassuringly.
“I didn’t have to do any thinking at all.”


“Oh yes, we both know how you hate that,” she said teasingly. He clicked his tongue and grabbed his jacket to follow her out the door. But thanks to her, he was a lot more at ease about tonight.

- - -

So it turned out Kristian had no idea how to act at an engagement party. He had no problems with Walten and quite liked the city and the noble family’s estates here. But the moment he’d walked into Central Hall, full to the brim with nobles and noble cousins and nobles adjacent and citizens of the city, well—there was no way to describe it. The phrase that kept going through his mind was What the fuck? but he knew his father well enough to know that if he said that at any point aloud tonight, he’d be reprimanded. That would surely dampen his mood.

Although he had a general sense of what his fiancée looked like, thanks to a description given to him, there were uh. There were a lot of women with red hair in this place. And he wasn’t about to ask someone random to dance with him. So here he was, stuck on the edge of a dancefloor, watching other people enjoy themselves and dance. Including his nephews! Well. At least they were having fun. Honestly, it was more fun watching them dance than to do it himself. It had always been that way to him. If he couldn’t have a live he’d chosen for himself, at least they could. That was good enough.

Yeah. He was a horrible liar.

“Another one, please,”
he said, tapping the bar. The presence of alcohol was at least taking the edge off here, and wasn’t that refreshing. As he took a sip of his second glass of the night, he wondered if he’d run into anyone he knew at all. Would he even have the chance to see his fiancée tonight, even though this party was supposed to be celebrating the engagement?

Kalila.





































  • mood



    bored & awkward
















“Dad, do I really have to go to this thing?”
Kalila whined, sticking out her bottom lip as far as it would go.
“It’s not like this engagement party is for me.”


“It’s good for networking, my love,” her father said, purposefully ignoring his daughter’s pout by leaning into the mirror to straighten his tie. “Besides, who says you won’t have a party like this of your own soon?” He sent her a teasing smile, and Kalila rolled her eyes.

“Baba, please. I stay inside and watch anime all day. No one in their right mind would want that.”
And as far as she knew, that was true.

“That’s why they call it wishful thinking.” Nasir sighed and turned around, the corners of his eyes crinkling as he took in the sight of his daughter’s outfit for the night. “Absolutely beautiful, habibi.” He paused. “Just like your mother.”

“That’s our cue to leave, baba.”
Kalila held out her arm for her mother, trying to not let her eyes mist over too much.
“Before we cry too much.”


“Excellent idea, Kalila.” He patted her hand on his arm, leading the way out of their lovely home. A home that hadn’t yet expected Kalila to get married, and that she hoped never would.

- - -

It didn’t matter how many of these functions she went to—Kalila never got used to the atmosphere. A drink in her hand didn’t change that, mostly because she still hadn’t gotten used to the taste of alcohol.

She hadn’t liked the idea that her father thought a party like this would be thrown in her honor someday. Hopefully that didn’t mean she was also going to be hitched to some stranger, not that she could entirely fault the nobles at this party for making such agreements. If she was tasked with the protection of Waldovia and had those magical powers or whatever, she’d probably be forced to do plenty of things she didn’t want to. Like, for instance, attend this stupid party.

Sighing, Kalila checked her phone. Supposedly, her friend Alara was going to be here tonight, and at least that would mean one more person more suited to the indoors would be having a not-so-fun time. She hadn’t looked into two many details on all these engagements this party was supposed to celebrate, but she had to admit some curiosity to whoever Alara’s fiancé was. Not enough to go actively looking for him, but if Alara offered to introduce her, she wouldn’t say no. Networking, right, baba?

The good thing about a party like this was that she was unlikely to run into him. Of all the places in Walten, this was the least likely spot to run into him. Except for maybe her house, but even then, she was sure he was bound to turn up at some point. Kalila kept a close eye on her clutch, just in case. The last thing she needed tonight was for something of hers to disappear. Again.

Swirling the drink in her glass, she downed it in one gulp. Oy, yuck. But at least she now had that burning through her body while she waited for something to happen. Oof. Okay, maybe she should go sit down…

Walker.





































  • mood



    OMG I LOVE THIS SONG
















Walker was very put out by the lack of surfing at this party. He wasn’t sure why he’d been expecting the party to be held near a beach, rather than in the middle of a city, especially since he was wearing a suit and all, but a guy could dream, couldn’t he? If this party was supposed to celebrate him getting married, why weren’t there waves for him to surf? He couldn’t help it if he was bummed he wouldn’t have the chance to rip off this stuffy thing and go ride the waves.

“Chin up, Wally,” his sister Cordelia said, nudging his side with her elbow. She looked every bit a princess tonight, and Wally was just thankful that this party wasn’t for her. If it was up to him, she would never get married—at least, not like this. But also just never. She was always gonna be a baby in his eyes! “We can go surfing tomorrow.”

“I guess,”
he mumbled, still pouting. For a waterlogged man like him, he needed the surf more than he needed human interaction, and he needed that, too. The least they could have done was provide some sort of fish tank for him to look at! C’mon, did they know nothing about the families attending this thing tonight?

Not that he had room to talk, really, considering he’d forgotten his fiancée’s name shortly after learning it.

Embarrassing, of course, but in his defense, he’d had a really good surfing session right after that meeting with his mother, and then… yeah, he didn’t remember much besides the surfing. Killer waves!
“You remember her name, right?”
he whispered out of the corner of his mouth, not wanting anybody else to catch on that he had been a complete doofus about tonight’s festivities.

“Mom never told me. Wally, are you seriously not sure who in this room you’re supposed to marry?” Cordelia didn’t exactly keep her voice down, and Wally slapped a hand over her mouth, his eyes wide as they darted around. Then he winced as his sister bit his finger, shaking out his hand. Before he could say anything, she crossed her arms. “Do you at least know what she looks like?”

“I don’t think anyone here was given a picture. Apparently nobles are all supposed to immediately know each other—but I don’t think that works.”
Wally cradled his bitten hand against his chest as he gazed out over the crowd.

He was totally focused on trying to figure out who his fiancée was when his favorite song came on. Letting out a dramatically loud gasp, Wally ignored his sister’s attempts to stop him and sprinted to the dance floor, already busting a move to rival any professional dancer. Why, yes, Waldovia, this was the heir to the Ridges family name. And he was doing the nae-nae like nobody’s business.

Camellia.





































  • mood



    open mouth, insert foot
















“Oh, Leon, this is so exciting!”
Camellia twirled around her small bedroom in the dress she’d gotten for this occasion.
“I’m so glad Lorelei asked me to come with her! Do I look okay?”
She turned to her chameleon friend, sitting on the edge of her bed. His head tilted, his eyes going in two different directions before his tongue lolled out. Cami knew that was a sign of Leon’s approval, and she hopped over and leaned down to give his little head a kiss. If chameleons could blush, she knew Leon would be doing so.

“Oh no, I’m almost late!”
Cami’s eyes widened as she checked the clock, grabbing her bag and slinging it over her shoulder.
“I’ll be back late, Leon! Look after things for me!”


The chameleon lifted his tail in farewell, and as Cami turned away, she left behind an empty bedroom, completely unaware that her entire conversation was all in her head.

- - -

“It’s all so beautiful!”
Cami marveled at the Central Hall’s ballroom in all its decadence and splendor. She felt a bit small compared to the high-vaulted ceilings and chandeliers, but then, she was small, comparatively. Honestly, it made her want to smile—so she did!

“Thank you for inviting me along,”
she said to Lorelei, giving her the smile that was reserved for the savior who had taken her in. After her trials, Lorelei had extended the kindest hand to her, and even now, the list of what to repay her for grew. Not that Cami minded—if it took her entire lifetime, she would someday return the kindness given to her in full. It was the least she could do, after Lorelei had given her so much.

Her stomach rumbled a bit underneath the fabric of her dress, and Cami blushed.
“Should we check out the food?”
she suggested, keeping to the edges of the ballroom as best as she could. Although she was a bit more social now that she’d become acclimated to life in Walten, she sometimes still returned to the days when she wasn’t sure how exactly to interact with other people. And, well, she didn’t know any of the dances currently being performed on the dancefloor. It was probably better she didn’t try, in case she crashed into anyone and caused a scene.

The spread on the buffet table was exquisite, and Cami felt her mouth watering as she took in all the choices. For now, she settled for a few crackers to settle her stomach, turning back to Lorelei.
“So… do you know what he looks like? Your fiancé?”
Though she’d heard about the reason for this party—six engagements!—she had been too busy working to ask much more about everything. Plus, wasn’t it a bit rude to ask your employer about her upcoming arranged nuptials? It was a lot simpler to ask Lorelei about it. Her eyes widened as she realized that it was probably rude to ask her, too!
“Oh, um, you don’t have to talk about it, if you don’t want to… Sorry.”


Munching her cracker, subdued, Cami cast her gaze back to the dancefloor, spotting a door leading out to some gardens across the room. Nature was so much simpler than these engagement parties.

Sergio.





































  • mood



    fuck me
















Sergio could have been doing all sorts of things tonight. Attending a deal, shooting someone, finding a woman to take home, drinking, literally anything. But no. Instead, he was here, at fucking Central Hall, at his fucking engagement party. Supposedly celebrating his motherfucking engagement to Chiara Accardi.

Fuck that.

He’d stepped out almost immediately for a smoke. This was about his fourth cigarette, and he still hadn’t calmed down. Fuck fuck fuck. On the bright side, her family was like his, so he didn’t need to worry about indoctrinating anyone into his mobster ways. On the not-so-bright side, he was pretty sure he was going to strangle her before their wedding day. They’d barely talked and he was already livid by the looks she gave him. There was no other word to describe it: fuck. He was in deep shit, and not the kind he could shoot his way out of.

Well…

No. His mother would kill him.

His sigh released a cloud of smoke into the night air. Sergio couldn’t believe he’d put on a suit for this nonsense. No, he didn’t want to dance. If there was anything he was going to do in there tonight, it was drink. A lot. And only because it would probably be frowned upon if he tried to flirt with anyone at his own damn engagement party. What a snoozefest that was. Sure, he could probably flirt with his fiancée, but that probably wasn’t going to end well for his ego.

Man, he really was fucked.

Dropping the cigarette to the ground, Sergio stomped it out, shoving his hands into his pockets. To stay out here where it was slightly cold, or to go inside, where it was way too warm. Decisions, decisions. Maybe he should just leave. Yeah, that might be the strategy here. Feign sickness or some shit. God, but he did want a drink…but he ran the risk of running into Chiara.

Yeah, he was just going to stay here. Much safer that way.

Magdalene.





































  • mood



    anxious & bored
















“Remember those walls I built? Well baby they’re tumblin’ down…”
Magdalene’s voice drifted through the ballroom, loud enough for the partygoers to hear, but not enough to draw attention. Just the way she liked it. She preferred crooning to singing pop songs, although she guilty of humming such melodies to herself when she was at home. Tonight, however, she was supposed to prove her talent to all of Walten, including the noble families.

She considered herself lucky that she was not one of them. Considering her general distrust of people that weren’t her adoptive family or her best friend, she wasn’t sure how she would have been able to handle an arranged marriage. And she knew for a fact that after what happened with her ex, the Moores wouldn’t do something like that to her. At least, she was pretty sure.

This was the last song of her set, and she would probably be asked to do another before the night was out. When Maggie finished the song, she dipped into a curtsy before leaving the stage. She desperately needed water; she was parched after some of those higher notes. Luckily, there was a water bottle for her backstage, and she grabbed and went out onto the dancefloor.

It really was very crowded in here, but she supposed that made sense, considering it was an engagement party, and all of Walten had been invited. Nevertheless, Maggie stuck to the wall, sipping her water, trying to keep out of everyone’s way. She was fairly sure Ella was here, but she didn’t know if she could stomach slipping through the crowd to find her and ask how she did. Her brother was also here, but he was probably busy attending to the noble he worked for… Noah? Yeah, that was his name.

She sighed. If only Damian was here. Maggie took out her phone and typed out a text: Just finished my set! For a moment, she nearly typed something silly like “I miss you” or “I wish you were here.” But that would be too clingy, right? Right. So she left it at that and tried to ignore the pang in her chest.

Adjusting her dress, she regretted that she hadn’t chosen a darker color. She probably looked silly, a commoner playing princess, even though she was just here to sing. What she wouldn’t give to be at home, curled up on her couch and watching a movie. Hell, she’d even prefer the company of horses to this, and she was terrified of the creatures. But she knew that was just anxiety talking. For the most part.

Maggie checked the time on her phone and groaned. It would be at least two hours before she was asked to sing again. How the heck was she going to pass that time?
