SX:2 The Antiques Roadshow (Keia judging)-Completed

[El Jefe]

'Always try to look happy or thoughtful. A foul mood shows.'

Avatar nodded in approval, but his private thoughts were elsewhere. "Sweetheart, compared to some of those faculty fundraisers, this'll be a piece of cake." Although he wasn't terribly fond of black tie, he'd worn it often enough before to be comfortable in it, and it was nice to just be Henry for a change. Well, now his team had seen him without the mask, which he supposed would do its little bit for building trust within the group.

At most of those fundraisers and society meetings, Henry was used to being one of the youngest and most handsome men in the room, if not the youngest and the most handsome. In this crowd, he was just another pretty face, older than most and not any better looking, either. He knew there'd be whisperings, and articles in tabloids the next day...what did Psyren see in him? Well, it wasn't the first time his date had turned heads, and, he supposed, it wouldn't be the last time, either. Despite his initial misgivings, Psyren was beginning to grow on him...not so much as a love interest, but as a Resolute who could be counted on in a crunch. He'd had his fill of "adventures" with pretty bits of fluff. They were fun as long as the encounters could be confined to soirees and trysts, but when things got dicey, fluff didn't cut it. Girls like Psyren could, and he respected that.

It was easy for Henry to smile for the cameras. He just hoped her taste in celebrities matched his. And that if Dawson crashed the party, that he'd find four Resolutes a much different matter than two.

'Many fundraisers done on national TV and broken down on every magazine in world? Just be careful.'

Psyren skillfully makes her way into the the party, noting that Ms Reid seems to have drawn a bit of a crowd with a skirt that's not quite down all the way and seems to be attempting to do something with a lamp shade, she heads the other way and downstairs where the music seems to be a bit louder.

'J-Pappy's over there by the DJ, but we should probably mingle for a bit before we talk to him. Colin Ferril's over there dancing with Rene, we should dance for a bit and then 'bump' into them. I haven't spoken to him in long time. Good plan, no?'

'Many fundraisers done on national TV and broken down on every magazine in world? Just be careful.'

"Heh", thought Avatar, making a mental list,
"1: None of those types have any concept of the word, 'fun'
2: They scrutinize you far more than these paparazzi types do, and
3: They all have memories like elephants.

If only she knew-naw, better that she doesn't."

'Colin Ferril's over there dancing with Rene, we should dance for a bit and then 'bump' into them. I haven't spoken to him in long time. Good plan, no?'

"Yeah, sure, no problem", replied the scholar. Some of his dance moves were a little dated, but otherwise, he blended right in. Now, if he had an opportunity to dance a Tango, then he'd show 'em, by God! He wondered if Psyren was up to that, and decided that she probably was.

Sergeant puts some sunglasses with his tuxedo. "It is always better than the jumpsuit we call uniform." Once the group arrive at the party, Sergeant always stay near Psyren, looking at everyone who is there. After a moment, he think it would be a good idea to eclipse himself and try to explore the building and try to find where the artifact is.

OOC:The tablet is in the room with Paladin.

 

[Velmont]

Sergeant minggle into the crowd, always keeping in sight Psyren, but at it is a social occasion in a private home, he decide to stay at the edge of the crowd, so he would have a better view of all the place. After some time, Sergeant talk into the commlink. "I'll go see teh tablet and Paladin. I'll be back in a moment." Sergeant leaves the crowd and enter the building. Jetset... I prefer to see them on a screen.

Psyren sends Avatar the occasional dance pointer to try to help him, and while he's fairly hopeless, most modern dancing isn't particularly coordinated, so at least he doesn't stand out, particularly with Psyren's assistance. 'Remember, call me Monique, or Miss De Lorme. Tis no secret, and what date would call me anything else, no?' She puts his hand on her backside at one point, 'You trying to be boyfriend, no? This thing most men do, special on dance floor. I no mind.'

A broad smile comes over her face as she closes her eyes begins to dance, more rythmicly and hypnoticly to the beat. She opens her mouth, almost to sing before she opens her eyes again and blushes a bit, having drawn the attention of many of the onlookers, and perhaps even Avatar. She continues dancing, though somehow it's not as hypnotic as before, though still a sight to watch.

[sblock=OOC]I make my basis of Avatar being hopeless based on the skill, but mostly due to the fact that Psyren has a +7 compared to his +0, and the fact she used to put on dance shows

And I figured her Fascinate, which is part of her psionic powers for the most part, functions on perform, and if she's not paying attention...[/sblock]

A broad smile came over Avatar's face as he relished one of the perks of the job. His dancing was a little stiff, but passable, and besides, dancing next to Monique, who was looking at him?[sblock=OOC]Avatar can dance, but he's nothing special at it. By Psyren or J-Pappy's standards, he is hopeless. As are about 95% of all the other men in the room.

The other 5% are professionals...[/sblock]

After taking a break from the dance floor out in the pool area, Psyren and Avatar are approached by Harry paulson. Psyren knows Paulson as a producer of slick summer action movies. 'Psyren, you're looking great baby. Let me run this by you. We do a movie where we start off telling your life story and than take it from there with this UN stuff. lots of action, Special effects, we'll sell a lot of popcorn. You'll be the star, I got Ed Burns lined up to play the knight, Peter Dinklage for the little guy, and Elisha Cuthbert to play Pandora. Think about it. I'll call your old agent and give him the details.",Paulson says in full smooze.

Paladin greets Seargent as he comes into the room. "Hail to thee, Seargent. How dost it fare elsewhere? So far, things are quiet here."

 

[Velmont]

"It's the party over there. Big effects to impress, but nothing really important that is happening. A usual jet set party." Sergeant approach the tablet and take a look at them. "I wonder how we can use that thing, if it really has a use."
