The Queen let out a sigh of relief once she emerged from a shadow in the pathways that connected the buildings and the pavilion. She let a smile creep onto her face at the smells and sighs of dragons enjoying themselves. While some looked hesitant she hoped they would loosen up soon enough. She reserved herself by a painting, admiring it and hoping no one really bothered her *Too* Much. Although, she was the one who organized this so she would have to suck it up for now.
Keith
*The young heir was walking nearby, his dark mask covering his face as usual. His talonsteps were silent and orderly.*

*He exhaled a small stream of smoke, before turning to glance at Nyx.*
Stephen
Nyx looked at the corner of her eye to see a sandwing approach. Although, she thought she recognized this one in particular. After inviting all these tribes she took it upon herself to memorize the families and dipped her head before asking politely 
"Hello Prince Anubis, how are you tonight?"
Keith
*Anubis dipped his head slightly in reply, before answering calmly*

"Quite well, Queen Nyx. I... Congratulate you on your ascension to the throne."

*He flicked his tail*
Stephen
Nyx personally didn't know how to take that comment. While yes, becoming Queen was a big deal, the way she acheieved it was not the best. She tried to take it in good spirit and replied

"Thank you kindly, the transition has been interesting for sure. I expect to work with you more as time moves forward."
Keith
*He nodded, his purple eyes glinting beneath his mask, before he spoke once again*

"I suspect we shall... Someday. Knowing my sister... She'd have a few objections."

*His last sentence was spoke with a hint of resentment*
Stephen
Nyx rose her eyebrow ever so slightly, intrigued at what that could mean. Interested she asked calmly,

"Oh, why would that be you think?"
Keith
"Ah, I should have expected someone from outside m- her kingdom wouldn't understand. She dislikes having good relations with other tribes, honestly. She doesn't listen to my objections."

*He voice was cold and sharp, hatred cooling through his words*
Stephen
She tilted her head, thinking to herself.

"Well that isn't very wise. Sure having too many tribes as allies makes things tricky in a war scenario, but we haven't seen anything happen besides the leafwings and silkwings."
She pointed out, her tail giving a gentle flick
Keith
"Alas, reasoning is not a possibility with her. Much too stubborn."

*He snarled, before composing himself with a heavy sigh*
Stephen
"I apologize for that. Some dragons chose to shut themselves out from the world. Unfortuantely it is her kingdom, nothing I could possibly do."
Keith
"Part of me hopes that *Someone* Does something, before the kingdom falls due to her arrogance."

*He sighed and shook his head. Anubis' tail flicked irritatedly*

"Anyway, how is your kingdom these days?"
Stephen
"Hopefully something changes indeed."
She answered solemly, trying to console him slightly. She hadn't realized the trouble stirring in the kingdom. However, she chose to take the topic change.
"It's... Good. Many dragons doubt my ability to rule, but time will prove them wrong I assume. Nothing I can do to change a dragons mind other than acting."
Keith
"These dragons will learn in time that you will make a good queen. While my kingdom can not show support, I will gladly express personal support if you need it."

*He frowned beneath his mask, tapping his scarred talons against the ground sligntly*
Stephen
She allowed a light smile to show

"I appreciate it, but please, don't let the hardships you face stop you from unwinding a little. We have wine and honey brought from the Silkwings I may help myself to soon."
Keith
"Perhaps I shall indulge myself in enjoying them a bit later..."

*He muttered thoughtfully*
Stephen
"Alright, just let me know if there is anything I can help you with. I really don't mind discussing things with you."
She informed Anubis, showing her support for him.
Keith
"I thank you greatly, your majesty. I shall excuse myself and leave you to some peace now."

*He bowed respectfully, before turning and walking away*
Jose
You start I respond
Stephen
After her interaction with Anubis she let herself think a little bit. She smelt trouble, but she hoped that it wouldn't leak into this party. With a sigh she resigned herself into a nearby shadow, her piercing blue eyes being the only thing visible in the patch of night. 

Her gaze was trailed downward, wondering what she should do. She didn't *Want* To stir any trouble, but she felt it would happen anyway. Maybe staying with the royals would help a little bit, try to make friends and maybe allies.
Jody
Imma just ping u erffhla
Jose
Sorry- was trying to get out of rain

And was casually in the Mall of America
Jody
I LOVE MALL OF AMERICA
Mary
He was somehow hiding within the crowd, before poking his head up, rattling his spikes like chimes. He exhaled, he was not expecting to have enough time to attend, and despite his hatred, he still had morals and he was going to honor the new Queen by attending. He swerved around the Night'Wings, to hopefully reduce some tensions, before walking close to Nyx, but at a reasonable distance. 
He then gave a proper bow, shutting his eyes closed, before rising his head up and sitting down. 
"Well, this is quite the party. Very hot, but excellent nevertheless." He chuckled, his tail curling around himself so he wouldn't accidentally hit someone with his tail.
Stephen
Nyx blinked at Hyperborean when he approached, shifting out from her hiding spot and dipping her head low in response to him.
"Well hello, I'm glad you were able to make it."
She replied, giving a smile as she had thought he would rather melt into a puddle than come to an event like this. 
"I'm sure we could prepare a room for you to cool down in a little if you would like."
She offered, willing to remain accomadating to him.
Mary
"No, I don't expect I'll be staying long. But you could prepare a room if you want. Besides, it's your party, not mine." He shrugged, even offering the faintest of smiles. He then flicked his tail, sighing to himself, as he stood up. 
"I'm a little surprised you managed to garner a party so big so quickly. Then again, it's the official crowning of the Night'Wing Queen, if I heard it right?" He asked, tilting his head slightly. His scales sparkled from condensation, but he seemed to look ok enough.
Stephen
"Oh that's a shame, although I'll still make the room in case any other Icewings need a chance to not start melting."
She joked lightly, looking out at all the other dragons mingling in the paths. 
"Yes, it is. We discussed how I am trying to get my name out there. What other way than having more than just my tribe to witness me? Also it's not just a chance for me to gain possible alliances, but for the other kingdoms to as well."

Her confidence seemed to have grown a lot since their last meeting. She had an aura of authority that wasn't there previously.
Mary
He laughed, chuckling as he noted that she was quite confident compared to how she was last time. It was... A strange change, but he personally didn't mind. 
"Yes yes, it can be exceptionally difficult to get the respect of other rulers when not a whole lot is known about you yet. And I agree, it is an excellent opportunity for alliances." He nodded, adjusting his posture to reflect her authority in a way, to make sure any Ice'Wings who came by didn't see him looking 'weak' next to the Queen.
Stephen
Nyx adjusted the amulet she had, thinking to herself for a moment before replying,
"Speaking of, we can look for the other rulers if you would like. I'm sure Azalea is around somewhere..."
She scrunched her snout lightly as she peered around the area.
Aaron
She had long since disregarded her Royal Guards, dismissing them into the crowds to talk to new dragons other than themselves. She laughed she spoke to dragons, the only thing certifying her as the Queen was of course her magnificent scales, and some simple light blue flowers that, upon vines, looped around her curled horns magnificently. She wore no other accessories, craning her neck regally, eyes wandering the crowds of dragons, peering for any equals.
Jose
I'll respond in a sec.
Mary
He flicked his tail, murmuring to himself as he shook some condensation off of his scales and spikes. 
"Oh of course. I haven't had a chance to meet her yet, so now would definitely be a fantastic opportunity." He chuckled, raising his head up to make himself more noticeable if Azalea was looking for them. His glimmer scales was painfully obvious when being surrounded by the dragons who weren't Ice'Wings.
Stephen
Nyx could see the Rainwing from close by. She could see she was enjoying herself, soaking up the atmosphere. Despite being in moonlight she looked as if she was basking in the sun. Nyx flared out her wings a little to get her attention, hoping she wouldn't have to yell to get her attention since that is *Not* The most regal thing for her to do.
Aaron
From the corner of her eye, she noticed Nyx's slight flare of her wings, breifly catching the undercoat of stars that glistened underneath. Pulling an excuse to whomever she was talking to- she really hadn't noticed- she walked along to Nyx, somewhat surprised to see the undoubtedly glistening shine of the IceWing King beside her. 

"Nyx!" She greeted informally, her frills and wing membrane becoming a purple as it mixed with a rosy pink and she tried to keep some dignity. "The party is amazing- no doubt due to the flowers I provided," She chuckled at her haughty joke, glancing toward the King, nodding her head in an incline of respect. "You must be King Hyperborean! I must say, we should've spoken sooner, though it must be hard ruling after your loss." She shook her head, frills drooping slightly. "Anyways-" She piped, unwilling to ruin the mood, "I trust you're enjoying the festivities- everything's well in your Kingdom? I had a chat with one of your Generals, Snowstorm, I believe, about such."

She beamed toward the two, feeling admittedly a little short despite ruling for longer.
Jose
Lil busy, will respond later
Mary
He dipped his head down slightly in respect towards Queen Azalea, it seemed he respected her far more than Nyx, since he had no issues with Rain'Wings. Perhaps an alliance one day would do, if there wasn't one already. He then shook his head, rattling his spikes to get some of the condensation off of them. 
"Her loss was grieved, but I couldn't do that for long since the Kingdom did need a ruler to make sure things didn't go into chaos. Well, I don't doubt my officials, of course, but some dragons could be a little... Unfavored to the public's eyes." He snorted, the ever so giant blackness staining the tips of his spikes. He clearly was in a happier mood, at the moment. 
"And things are running smoothly in my kingdom. And the festivities is indeed... Unique." He chuckled, as if he was hinting at he was used to colder parties. He flicked his ears, as his tail curled partially around himself.
Robert
A sorry I was sleeping
Aaron
She chuckled softly, her brows upwards sympathetically. Glancing toward Nyx for a moment, realising both the tribes had lost a ruler due to uncertain circumstances. Anywho, Hyperborean didn't seem to rely on his emotions as much, and she wasn't sure if that made him seem cold-hearted or practical. *Atleast he isn't in the same state of Cordovan,* She thought, frills drooping slightly at the thought.

"Hah! Unique is certainty the word. All thanks to the punches, I presume?" She laughed lightheartedly. "It's good to go somewhere where you don't have to worry about being stuck- or fall." She remarked, reminiscing on those scenarios as a princess briefly. "There isn't anything like that here, is there?" She asked jokingly toward Nyx, expression playful.
Jody
Whoops forgot about this I was a lil hyperfixated
Stephen
Nyx didn't let her informality bother her, since she knew it was simply how Azalea was. She let a smile grace her features while her tail curled neatly towards her body. 
She looked at Hyperborean from the side of her eye to see how he reacted. It was expected he would be more... Well, less on edge with her. She may be more experienced as a Queen, but the Rainwings also didn't have centuries of tensions between them and the Icewings. She noticed the Rainwings frill droop ever so slightly but didn't mention it as the conversation was directed back towards her. 
"I think you know the answer to that one Azalea."
She replied, rolling her eyes as a gesture to reflect her playful nature. 
"I am surprised the Silkwings managed to come here, I wasn't sure they would. With the long travel and all."
She pointed out, looking out at the scene.
Robert
Is it stain's turn? 👀
Jose
Yeah- I'm working on it
Mary
He didn't mind that he wasn't necessarily the center of attention, his ears flicking in curiosity as his tail swayed. He shifted his gaze away for a few moments, as if analyzing the party members, before retracting his talons in as his gaze glanced back over. He kept his distance from both Queens, but not so much that it was too obvious. His spikes and scales gleamed from the amount of condensation build up, he even began to shake it off ferociously, without too much care that the water droplets may land on the two other Queens. He then offered a hesitant but kind smile, his tail falling still. He had decided against making a comment, unless he was directly spoken to.
Jose
Waiting for Duck I believe?
Robert
/lh/nm
I'll get to it when I'm less tired ^^
I've got the general paragraph down, just have to rewrite it for it to sound better

Hah you're sick now >:D
Aaron
She laughed. "You can never be so sure~" She said, relishing in the playful nature of the conversation, her frills flaring slightly.

"As am I, although you cannot doubt one's perseverance, even if there are less numbers- it's still a numourous crowd, no doubt as to why." She brimmed proudly, happy Nyx had conjured such a continental influence, even if it was only the SilkWings. She hadn't conversed much with the other Queen's inhabiting Pantala, but never sought attention of them, especially with the LeafWings being... As militaristic as they were.

She glanced toward Hyperborean as he shook himself, allowing herself a soft chuckle. "The King of Elegance," She said sarcastically, frills, wing membrane and spots becoming a playful yellow. "Surely your demeanour is enough to keep you cool, no?" She commented, referring to his somewhat standoffish- if not formal behaviour as well as sterotypes, no matter how untrue they may be. She saw them as an avenue for a joke around anyway.
Jody
Dw duck ur all good

I almost did adonis again onfg

This bitch fr wants to be a queen idk how many times this has happened
Stephen
Queen Nyx blinked at the statement, oddly enough she wasn't quite used to the compliments. She took it more practically to be safe
"Well, it certainly wasn't hard. Many tribes wanted to meet me and see how I would run the kingdom. I just hope I didn't disappoint. Although, there's no guarantee. Not like I would change anything anyways."
She answered, somewhat informally if she had to assume. Maybe Azalea was rubbing off on her now. That would be something she would need to check herself on. 

When the rainwing made a comment about Hyperborean she had to hold in a small laugh, tilting her head to the side. 
He *Was* Elegant in his own way. The dew that shined on the darkening pieces of his spikes made him appear almost black in some areas. She wondered what kind of painting she could do... Although that thought whisked away quickly as she bit her tongue to voice that thought. It wasn't formal on her part, especially when she had an image to maintain, *Especially* Today. 
"Speaking of, I already said you're welcome to the room we provided. And like Azalea said, we wouldn't want you to melt."
Her voice sounded formal enough, but she couldn't help herself from making a jab.
Jose
A *Painting* You say???
Robert
Omg the painting can be the one ren is drawing 👀 /nf
Jody
Already said that hehehehe
Jose
Nyx: "I made a painting for you!"
Hyperborean: "Wait what"
Jody
No she would burn it immediately
Mary
He had lost some of his attention on the conversation between the two, his eyes wandering over the party more than the duo. He did try to keep up, to make sure he didn't miss anything, before Azalea made her joke. His ears flicked as his gaze snapped right over to her, in a disappointed-father way. He grumbled, muttering something under his breath that might have been a curse, before sighing. He then flicked his gaze to Nyx, his stare like ice daggers as she made the comment. He clearly did *Not* Take well Nyx making a jab, but he seemed less angry at Azalea. A clear bias. He took a deep breath to calm himself though, knowing it really was just a joke, and Nyx had offered a room for him to cool down. 
"Well, I wasn't planning to stay here for long, but I had already forgotten how unbearable it really is here. And, I'm actually so cold if the condensation sticks to my scales too long, they'll refreeze and glue my scales and spikes together. It's as uncomfortable as you think it is." He chuckled, rolling his eyes as his tail swept the floor, shaking his neck once more.
Jose
I JUST WANTED TO SHOW A COMPARISON BETWEEN THE TWO
Jody
IM SORRY NYX JUST HAS THE MOST SMUG FACE IM WHEEZING
Aaron
She softly chuckled at Nyx's odd display of practicality, putting a talon over her snout as if to smother it. Azalea rolled her eyes dismissively before stating, "Don't be so modest, dear. You have no idea what one 'dainty' party may do." 

She held in her laughs at the two's expression, instead allowing a soft rumble leave her throat as she lavished in conversation.

As Hyperborean glared at both of them- especially at Nyx- she stayed silent as he took a deep breath, amusing herself with the thought of the troubles of staying regal within IceWing standards. Beneath the jokes, she was curious of how the two were interacting then and now. They seemed... Nice enough, and she hoped she had eased the tension, *If there was any to begin with,* She reasoned, tilting her head to the side slightly. Besides, Nyx had offered Hyperborean a cool room, and it seems he hadn't walked out of the thought yet.

"How nice of you to say," She said sarcastically, a playful edge to her tone- still knowing of the larger context, glancing at Nyx for her reaction. She unfurled her wings for a small stretch, as if his explanation had made herself uncomfortable as well, expression considering. "Quaint as it is, it seems to keep you active, no doubt a positive. Atleast you'll freeze back together, no? Abit misshapen, but same old Hyperborean."

To compensate for the yellows fitting into her spots, she allowed the pigment to taint her scales- a trick taught whilst young as her mother lectured her about appearances and overall image whilst in the public- the colours slowly sweeping into a dark emerald green, somewhat like looking up at the rainforest canopy before the sun has awoken from its rest, the foliage shadowed by the stretching leaves, eager to receive first light.
Robert
I'm sorry it's alot I didn't mean tooo
Jody
IM GOING TO EAT YOU STAIN

Oh shit it's my turn
Stephen
The Queen stayed composed, only allowing her wings to relax a little bit at her side. She looked at Hyperborean from her side, giving a tiny smile as she saw his disgruntled face. There wasn't anything he could do, or be angry about since she did try to make his visit as comfortable as possible. 

She let her eyes rest back onto Azalea seeing her try to contain her laughter. It only made Nyx more pleased with herself as she listened to what else she had to say. She did wonder about how being an ice dragon affected him in climates like this, but felt like she said enough and the King might actually say something back this time. 

Once they finished their comments Nyx found one of her guards come up and whisper a few things into her ear. She flicked her tail, narrowing her eyes just slightly before wearing a tiny smile and looking back at the two royals. She politely dipped her head and replied
"Well, I do appreciate you guys coming. I'll leave you to be acquainted while I attend to other matters tonight. Help yourself of course and stay as long as you need to."
Mary
He glared at Azalea, but it didn't last long since he didn't want to create any unnecessary tensions. Her jokes were a little on the button, but he tried his best to not show it as much as he could. He did glare at Nyx, brief as it may, before sighing deeply. 
"Well, that is my cue to leave. I appreciate this nice little party you have here, and that you have invited me to this party. I wish the both of you a pleasant rest of the night." He snorted, shaking off his spikes. He then snorted, his tail flicking as he swiftly made his way out, without any other word to the rest of them.
Jose
Didn't proofread that shit
Robert
I wasn't late to the party- totally not
Aaron
She contained her informal laughter as Hyperborean glared, letting it fall underneath a sigh and allowing the yellows in her frills and wing membranes rest into a green as if to steady herself before she spoke. 

"As am I, thank you for the splendid chat. I hope to discuss in the everpresent future." She regarded as the two left on their separate ways, soon leaving in favour for some drinks and a bright conversation between a few RainWing officials and some NightWings.
Jose
Oh and this too Ren
