<em>Bo with everyone in great hall</em><br/><br/>Without looking at the results of his toss, Bo slipped the coin back into his pocket and nodded back to Marcus.  He wasn't buying his "winded" comment, but apparently the man had some reason for delaying and Bo would respect that.  It could be that Marcus was just being polite.  "If you insist, works for me.  We'll have plenty of time to get to know each of them."  Bo paused for a moment, his gaze returning to the two women.  "An interesting situation all together, wouldn't you say?" he asked rhetorically, as he stepped away from Marcus.<br/><br/>Bo looked at Mari, offering her a polite smile and nod before shifting his gaze to Nicci.  Then he extended his hand to Nicci, losing himself for a moment in her sultry eyes.  The warm light bathed her eyes in a soft glow that made it difficult to determine their color from an arm's length away, but there was a worldly confidence in her expression that caused him to want to learn more, and he had been impressed at the manner in which she had immediately taken a leadership position amongst the women.  Bo's smile widened at the flash of surprise on her face.  Perhaps his reaction to Mari's entrance had been a little too obvious, though the fact that Nicci seemed to have noticed was a good sign.  It showed that she was already in tune with her surroundings and the new faces around her.  A woman that adapted quickly to new experiences must have something of interest in her background.  Though her beauty alone was enough incentive to hold her close.  A thought that gave Bo a feeling of eager expectation.<br/><br/>"I'd be honored to have this first dance with you, Nicci."
