IT'S HIS DAY EVERYONE!!!! SAY HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO HIM!!!!!

[ceo-of-jennette-de-alger-obelia]

My wmmap au timeline

So we start with the Lp! Verse

-Jennette wakes up from her illness and finds out that Athanasia had been executed by Claude. Distraught she turns on him and begins to plan her overthrow

-She murders Claude using her black magic and takes the throne for herself. Then starts to study time magic and sends everything back in time to when she was 5.

We leave the Lp! Verse and come into the current timeline

-Jennette wastes no time in studying magic and alchemy. Her magic grows so much to the point that it attracts monsters. To avoid suspicion and potential disaster she builds a small hut out in the forest to work in.

-At 14 she attends Athy's debutante and greets her the same way. Chasing after her to hand back her ribbon, but paying Claude no attention. (I'll probably re-design her debutante dress to)

-Now a slight variation to this au is that Athy realizes early that she was the original Athanasia and had regained her memories too. So she's very apathetic towards Claude and only acts cutesy to please him. She and Jennette share plans to take over the throne through private tea parties.

-Anyways we of course have to bring the boys in here. Kiel is fine and dandy with helping put Athy on the throne and they all pressure Lucas into mentoring Jennie. So now Jennie calls him Mr.Lucas and has a matching cloak like him :D

-So after years of preparation. They set it into motion. Jennette kills Claude once more and places the crown on Athanasia's head. The 4 kids make an mini coronation and present the new empress to the masses. The end

Extra notes:

-I'm making a Siodonnian boyfriend for Athy

-Letizia my baby girl will finally see the light of day after being stuck in my basement. Knight lady Leti and her pretty witch wife Jennette❤️

-Lukiel I guess because I am the biggest, slutiest, whore for rivals/enemies to lovers

@jeweled-blue-eyes Bestie I know you said something about Siodonnian boyfriend once. Gimme your headcanons. The only group projects I like are fandoms ones sooooo

✦ — BUT DARLING, YOU ARE THE ONLY EXCEPTION.

✦ CHARACTER/S︰ijekiel alpheus & lucas from wmmap (who made me a princess).

✦ SYNOPSIS︰love can bloom and burn in any heart at the first sunlit-brindled brief—whether it be bounded by duty, ice, or disbelief; as long as that epitome of affection is you, they suppose they can make an exception and make some space—or in which they fall in-love with you first glance and sight.

✦ CONTENT WARNING/S︰nothing other than one swear word (fuck), & the general fluff and infatuation (from the character/s) + everything is proofread with the wc 200 - 300 each.

✦ A/N︰making my debut as a manhwa writer on main is not the ideal move but idk where to post it okay (side eyes the 2367838 sideblogs under this one/silly (also the title is inspired by "the only exception" by paramore <3 it's bleeping awesome go and give it a listen!!))

IJEKIEL IS NOT ONE TO FALL IN LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT, to have his world still for a few seconds while his heart overrides and blood races to the forefront of his cheeks—but dear heavens, were you the only exception to that rule bound by duty and a planned future in his chest. you surely weren’t the epitome of grace or as enchanting as the gods, but to him you were enough—more, than enough, truly.

he first met you in an arrangement of his father and your parents from your vague childhood—but oh, how he remembers every second of that first meeting. when the doors opened to you bowing in front of him with a barely-hidden smile of excitement curving the tips of your mouth to look at him with big, bright eyes of wonder staring directly at the copy of the sun—not once backing down to blink or burn away from awe and fluster. so ijekiel does that instead.  his skin flares with the color of blooming carnations, sunlight-prickled hues wide from childish panic at the sudden increased beating of his heart.  was something wrong with him? he felt light-headed and dizzy, stomach twisting, tossing and turning as if he was about to faint from merely seeing you presented before him like the finest muse of a pristine piece of art, incomparable to anything else other than itself. what should he do? should he compliment you? should he act indifferent and use a practiced smile? his mind is trying to adjust to the drastic changes of his swayed heart, but the boy just can’t seem to do just that when he’s faced with a fairytale protagonist right in front of him—and he blinks, catching something from the corner of his eye—and is brought back down to earth when he sees his father’s questioning gaze. then, bows with a smile, greeting you further in to sit down and perhaps enjoy a cup of tea with him?  you said yes out of common courtesy, but that only made his smile grow wider.

LUCAS FIRMLY DOES NOT BELIEVE IN LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT, like come on—who believes in love like that these days? naive little kids? newly adolescent noble ladies? men of high and poor status? it’s simply too . . . unlikely to actually happen in his eyes. the butterflies when you meet “the love of your life’s” eyes? could be the early signs of constipation. the flush in your cheeks when there’s too much prolonged eye contact with them and the dizziness of your heart and mind? could be an oncoming migraine, headache, or a sign you're being possessed by some evil spirit, y’know? anyways, enough joking aside—the point is, he finds the subject some far-fetched fairytale that is highly impossible even with the magic he has—that is, until, you waltz into his life. the things he feels when he's around you is something that could be described as a contradiction. the first gazing into your eyes turns the world upside and back again, the first brush against your fingertips suck all the air out of his chest, the first chuckle that he manages to rouse from deep within your giddy joy paints him a shade darker than his eyes from head to toe—holy fuck were there a lot of firsts that made him experience everything and anything all at once; with most he can't even explain properly without sounding so . . lovesick. god do you make him sick to the last bone with whatever sorcery you possess. in short; when in love, lucas is everything that correlates to being stupidly infatuated and is constantly reeling himself in by a hair’s breadth back to the surface when you smile, laugh, or simply exist next to him—like, can you imagine how utterly moronic it is to see how degenerate he’s become from before you?! . . . but, if it makes you happy, he’ll gladly be idiotic for the rest of his life (though, that depends if you're gonna annoy him or not).

౿  ׂ   ִ        ⁀   ˳ ⊹⠀- General HCs ! || Ijekiel Alpheus, Lucas x Reader ⁀   ⊹⠀ Note: New writing style, no one cheered 😔 I barely see any WMMAP x reader and I'm deprived of it right now. Time to put tumblr on use 😹😹

Ijekiel is the gentlemen every girl could dream of. That sounds much more cheesy than I thought it would be. Seriously though, his calm and soft face? His gentle yet can be teasing personality?? Whoa dude, it's 1 in the morning why is the sun so bright already? Wait, that's not the sun!

Imagine standing alone at the grand ball Obelia had held and then suddenly someone bumps to you and when you look up, it's the son of Duke Alpheus himself, apologizing and that singular apology escalated into a whole night chat. Since when did you get the main character syndrome?!

Ijekiel loves practicing ball dances with you. Gently holding you with his pair of warm hands while he teaches you how to coordinate your steps. He lightly teases you when you accidentally made a mistake such as stepping on his foot.

He loves doing your hobbies with you. Oh you like sleeping? He'll nap with you. Oh you like to chew on snacks? He'll bring you some. You like drawing? He'll watch you draw and compliment you even as simple as you drawing lines. You like to read? He'll bring you to the library and have a quiet pleasant date with you there. You like to gossip a lot? He'll listen to you the whole time with affirmative nods. You like to shop? He'll bring you to your favorite place and offer to carry your bags even if you insisted that you can do it yourself.

Ijekiel definitely introduce you to his family, even if you told him that he doesn't have to. The meeting felt like him proposing to you and asking his family for support.

Ijekiel would learn stuff for you. Oh you can't cook? Suddenly you're greeted by some delicious dishes on the table when you come over at his place. You fell asleep on your desk after doing some stuff overnight? When you wake up, you suddenly found some flowers with a letter on it tinted with his scent. He loves acting on assistant for you.

When he gets jealous, all he simply does is shoot the person you're paying attention to a passive aggressive smile before gently pulling you away from them, claiming that the two of you have some stuff to do.

Overall, a really sweet sweet sweet man. Ijekiel is a really gentle guy with you, he loves to show you that he adores you with his whole life.

Lucas is a massive asshole with you. This man would stubbornly stand on his point. What point you ask? His denial of being in love with you.

Lucas has been alone and so unattached of his feelings for hundreds of years and suddenly a simple person like you who he would definitely belittle of is making him feel things?

He would definitely deny his feelings at first. The butterflies? Probably just his stomach rumbling. His heart beating fast? Could be a sign of fever, aaand you name it. At the end, he couldn't help but succumb to it. Your smile is more than enough to light his days up and he secretly really loves it.

This man is the opposite of Ijekiel. He shows his worries to you with snarky yet light remarks. "Holy shit, you looked uglier than yesterday with those eye bags. Did you get enough sleep at all??" And then you two proceeded to banter like you usually do.

Believe it or not, Lucas is very needy when it comes to your attention. When he wants your attention, he will do stuff and then make it seem like he didn't do it on purpose (he sucks at it). Accidentally twisting and knotting his tie so that you could undo it for him and put it back on his collar, his earring fell off so you have to put it back on his ear, and more.

This man somehow knows what you like and what you dislike, even if you didn't directly tell him. He catches you staring extra longer at a stuff displayed on a shop? You'd find that thing in less than a week in your room.

He loves using you as an arm rest. No matter how tall you are, Lucas will somehow look taller than you just for the sake of teasing you and using you as his arm rest when he's standing up.

When he gets jealous, he will make it clear that he does NOT like the person you're paying attention to. Send them death stares, glares, unamused yet condescending looks that says "I'm way better than you" before finally dragging you away, with the sarcastic excuse of "Oh sorry, they're busy, do you mind???"

No matter how flustered he himself could be when faced with his own feelings, Lucas absolutely, definitely, truly loves flustering you. He just loooves the sight of you denying your embarrassed state when it's as clear as an open book.

Overall, Lucas is the type of person to be conflicted of his own feelings while secretly enjoying the butterflies you gave him.

Okay but no actually. Athykiel is so Enemies to Lovers coded. Or at least Academic Rivals to Lovers. I've only been able to read the Manhwa, but seeing their interactions, especially in their younger years, just. Exudes that energy. JUST IMAGINE. Athy and Ijekiel constantly competing, even after the time skip. During the dance, instead of Athy being uncomfortable they just keep questioning each other on their knowledge of various topics. I would find that so hilarious as they are dancing so gracefully. Everybody is head over heels with their beauty while the two in question are at one another's throats. The moment Athy sees him again after his overseas study she is immediately on him on what languages he has learned and what she has done more of. Athy and Ijekiel looking like they are having a polite conversation when in reality they are so passive aggressive it's funny. Ijekiel teasing her by perhaps almost leaning in for a kiss before pushing himself away and asking a question on the paper she is doing (I'm delulu). Ijekiel falling first but having so much denial that this is the person he likes due to the whole Jennette scenario (she did nothing wrong), but also the fact that this is the girl that he has been competing against since day one when he thought she was an angel the day she rejected his/his father's offer to hangout because he wasn't smart enough. Ijekiel fell first but I can definitely see Athy falling harder. Just. I want to see their banter and fun conversations and teasing that we only got to see towards the end. They are both such sweethearts and they deserve a little silliness. They deserve to have the pining and rivalry that all Academic Rivals to Lovers get. Just. Ashsjshksbjsmks

[that-one-pretty-bitch]

Wmmap Lucas x reader Head-canons and a little one-shot/scenario ? 😋

Information:

Reader Is Claude & Diana’s first born who is older then her by 2 years

She resembles her mother a lot she has her eyes, hair, personality and dresses like her mother since she just loves the siodonna clothing

[and I imagine them more comfy then royal clothes]

Not mine :D but how I imagine her

She and Lucas love to tease one another, and Y/N is a huge savage but also can be a simp, but not a annoying one more one who randomly makes him compliments and boosts his ego

For example:

Athy Y/N Lucas

“Lucas has such a huge ego” “yeah but- I mean he Is a 10/10 he’s ridiculously handsome and he knows it 🤭”

“For you Lucas” hands him a suit “why?” “Cuz you would look hot in it 😗”

Everyone just doing their own things “You’re so Handsome Lucas” ‘smirk’

She has good manners but she is rather bold with her close friends and family in privat

Tiny example

Public: Sister, Father, Mother

Privat: Athy, Dad, Mom

She’s also reincarnated she was an orphan and died at the age of 15 because of a sickness.. she wasn’t poor like Athys past life she even had a phone and was really into social media so she would sometimes confuse everyone [mostly Lucas] with her art of talking 💀

Another example 💀

“Bro take that back-“ “imma just act like I didn’t hear that crap” “tf you doing Lucas?” “On my momma I don’t do these kind of things”

[idk why I wrote so much 😭 you can ignore some of it especially the last part… I Just never saw this kind of reader and thought it would be funny]

Flashback

“How did I get into this?” Mumbled Lucas, who was being dressed up in Sidonian clothing by none other than the infamous firstborn princess.

His face flushed red as he saw Y/n smiling up at him holding a necklace he had once given her.

“Help me,” Y/n muttered, moving her dazzling gold hair to the side as Lucas hooked her necklace.

He was so in love with her, never in his entire life had he ever thought that he would fall in love with a human, but this girl stood out to him, she was a dianhong rose next to all these weeds.

She made him feel things he never felt before,

Perhaps he would have to steal her away from Athanasia and her overprotective father

Reality

“Y/n… are you in love with Lucas?” Exclaimed Athanasia happily, making a loud ‘clunk’ as she places her teacup on her saucer roughly. 

She knew Lucas was in love with her and she intended to find out if her sister liked him back, she knew from her past lives that Lucas was perfect for her. He had burned down empires to earn her love and destroyed anyone who dared get in their way.

Both princesses were in Y/n’s personal Rhodonite palace, gifted to her on her sixteenth birthday by the emperor himself.

“Oh, Athy, love is love, and I suppose i’m madly in love with that beautiful magician,” Explained Y/n, sighing dreamily, a smile gracing her plump lips.

Athanasia lit up as she smiled at a tree.

Why was Athanasia smiling at a tree?

“Athy, baby, have you finally lost it?” inquired Y/n

Only to see the tree form into a human-like creature, with black hair and blood ruby eyes

Lucas

Oh, so he must know. That's alright.

Lucas wandered over to Y/n

“How rude of you to spy on us. Perhaps I should not talk to you for some time since you dared to disrespect my privacy, hmm?” Y/n turned to look at Lucas, anger flashed in her rose eyes, her face showed a strained smile.

He threw his hands up as if meaning to surrender to his darling and slipped himself next to her on her golden rimmed and red tufted chair. He wrapped his arms around her waist and placed his head on the crook of her neck.

“*sigh* Princess please forgive your handsome magician,” Lucas teased

Athanasia huffed, was Lucas always so full of himself? That magician made her blood boil at times. Athanasia excused herself and left.

“Looks like your ‘handsomeness’ has driven my baby Athy away,” Now it was Y/n’s turn to tease

“I’m an acquired taste princess, only ladies with class love me,” Lucas smirked slyly

“Then I must be the classiest of them all,” Y/n shamelessly flirted as she flicked Lucas’s forehead.

Any hatred in her eyes had now become love, there truly is a thin line between love and hate

Lucas is a walking threat, a menace to the world. If he wants to burn down an empire no one can stop him yet he happily lets Y/n hit him without bothering to stop her.

Lucas may be the strongest but Y/n will always win against him.

Today, the pair were wearing matching outfits as Y/n insisted on it.

Lucas wore a white button up with most of his buttons open, a navy blue blazer with a gold encrusted peacock pattern and a thick fleece coat tied around his shoulders with a chain of gold and sapphire, while Y/n wore a navy blue tube top with a design akin to that of Lucas’s and a gold ankle length skirt with navy blue ruffles.

The couple looked stunning, however the evening wind was frigid and Lucas could distinguish that his beloved was shivering

He slipped his cloak off and wrapped it around both of their shoulders.

“Lucas, your supposed to give me the entire cloak,” Y/n sighed shivering slightly

“I’m cold too princess!” Lucas whined as he cuddled closer to Y/n wrapping the cloak tighter around the both of them. The thick fleece felt heavenly against Y/n’s bare shoulders, neckline and back. It started to get darker but both Y/n and Lucas felt too comfortable to move, Y/n placed her head on Lucas’s neck while he placed his head on top of hers.

Lucas brushed through her hair with his fingers and braided it carefully, he slipped in a few roses in her hair as he braided them. He would be soft, only for her

Y/n may be a princess to the kingdom but she was the queen of his heart, he gave a lovesick smile as he watched the moon illuminate onto Y/n making her sparkle like a goddess.

He always associated himself with the moon, he was the moon and Y/n was his sun. He needed her to bring out the best in him and feel complete. Something about watching the moon shining  on her face made him feel content.

“Hey…Y/n?” He asked, his face beet red

“Yes?” she asked unable to see his face because of the position she was in

He lifted his head of hers and pulled her jaw closer to his

And pressed his lips onto hers, twirling the necklace he had given her in his fingers.

After a blissful minute the two parted, Lucas looked away embarrassed and Y/n blushed lightly

“I can tell you have never kissed a girl before,” giggled Y/n, Lucas was a bad kisser but she still liked it.

“And you have?” Lucas asked, his voice low and dangerous

“Yes, Ijekeil,” Y/n teased

“He kisses very well,” She continued

Lucas’s face expression changed to that of a kicked puppy, he turned away from Y/n.

“I’m sorry, I'm sorry. I shouldn’t have said that, I love you more than everyone except Athy,” Y/n traced apologies on Lucas’s hand with her finger.

Lucas turned around and embraced her tightly

“Never joke about something like that again,” He spoke sharply, hurt laced his voice

“I won’t my love, don’t leave, I want to stay with you for the rest of the night,” She smiled sweetly pointing to the stars

“Lucas, love me for eternity,” She kissed his cheek.

“Forever and always, my violent princess,” He grinned

[alicehattera03]

Someone's radiating single energy here.

Ijekiel: It's cold outside, princess. Maybe we should hold hands for warmth. Athanasia, blushing: Okay. Lucas, furiously third-wheeling: It's fucking summer, you idiots! It's literally ALWAYS summer here.

[artxmisq]

The Other Princess

WMMAP × OC

OC × IJEKIEL

OUT OF CHARACTER

Far from the real events.

Alternative Universe.

IN THE breathtaking kingdom of Obelia, a miraculous event unfolds as Athanasia, the lovely princess, finds herself back in her first life. As she embraced her newfound role as the princess of Obelia, a lingering sense of uncertainty filled her heart.

Unbeknownst to Athanasia, there was a hidden princess within the kingdom - the enigmatic Reina. Rumors had swirled about Reina being the one who would ultimately ruin Athanasia's chance at a peaceful and prosperous life.

On a fateful day, Athanasia's path intersects with Reina's, and their first encounter is wrought with skepticism. Athanasia could not help but doubt Reina's motives, fearing that she would fulfill the dreadful prophecy and bring chaos to Athanasia's rebirth.

Adding to Athanasia's turmoil was the undeniable favoritism shown by her father, Claude. He seemed to shower Reina with affection and preference, leaving Athanasia to question her place in the kingdom and her father's heart.

As the story begins, Athanasia's journey in her new life is marred with apprehension, uncertainty, and a touch of jealousy. Will Reina prove to be an ally or a foe? And can Athanasia find her place in a world where her father's favoritism threatens to overshadow her existence? The answers lay in the tale that unfolds, where friendship, loyalty, and the pursuit of one's destiny intertwine in the kingdom of Obelia.

By the way, this is Reina lol

Summer Nights

This party is boring.

Keira sighs and leans against the wall. Her brother - Lucas - abandoned her for his beloved girlfriend. So now she's alone.

"Lady Keira," a familiar voice says. The black haired girl looks up and meets the golden eyes of Ijekiel. She smiles at him.

Ijekiel, her brothers love rival, and she became kind of friends. Lucas has no idea, and that's good. Although she would love to see the look on his face once he realises that Ijekiel stole her heart.

Lucas would go crazy.

"Lord Ijekiel!" She exclaims and looks at him with sparkling eyes. "You just saved me from boredom!"

The boy chuckles. "It's not that boring of a party." He looks away from her. His eyes scan the party.

He's probably looking for Princess Athanasia. Keira clenches her hands. She doesn't like losing, actually she really hates it. That's probably the fault of her family who always let her win. Or maybe because she was raised in a way that told to never lose.

Her mother wouldn't accept the fact that she just let guy she liked go. No, Keira is supposed to fight for him, but it isn't worth it. Why would she force a guy who doesn't like her to like him? That's wrong.

"The princess left with the magican a few minutes ago," says Keira. Ijekiel tears his gaze away from the room and looks back at Keira. To her surprise, he doesn't look disappointed.

"Oh... I see," he replies.

She's surprised by that reaction. The normal disappointment is gone from his features. Her heart beats a little faster. Is it possible that he likes her back? Has he finally fallen for her?

"Ijekeil, I don't feel so good," claims Keira suddenly. She has a plan. Tonight is the night.

Worry immediately fills Ijekiels expression. He quickly steps closer. "What's wrong?" He asks.

"I feel a little nauseous," she continues her lie. "Can we go for a walk?"

Ijekiel nods, and the two make their way outside. It's a nice night. The stars are out and clearly visible. It's not cold, but not really hit either. It has the perfect temperature.

Keira smiles as she holds onto Ijekeils arm. Should she say it now?

"Ije-", "Keira-" They both say at the same time. Both blush. "You first," they say in sync again. Both chuckle.

"Okay, you first," says Keira and looks at Ijekiel. She can't wait for what he tells her.

"Keira..." He starts and sighs. It's time. He'll finally confess. She can't wait. She's already planning the wedding. "I know that your Lucas' sister."

The world stops. That's what he wanted to say? He wasn't going to confess? She feels stupid.

"How? I know that he has been hiding that well," Keira questions, confused. Ijekiel sighs. "I saw you two together, I first thought that Lucas might be cheating because you two looked so close, but I don't think you'd do something like that. I followed and learned that you two are siblings."

Again, Ijekiel sighs. "Did your brother tell you to distract me from Princess Athanasia?"

Keiras eyes widen. Is that what he thinks this is? It can't be.

"No! I swear, I'm not working with my brother. I just... I just wanted to be with you," she defends herself and looks to the ground. Ijekiel is quiet, and it makes her nervous.

Then, he puts his hand under her chin and raises her head. "I believe you," sooths Ijekiel her worry. "You don't seem like the type of person to do that, Keira. Even if you were, it wouldn't matter. I quite like being with you."

Keira blushes again. "Well, I really really like being with you," she confesses and smiles. "Err, what I wanted to tell you earlier Ijekiel..." Keira fidgets with her fingers and looks to the side. "So, I really like you. Like in the way you like Athanasia - or liked. Personally I would prefer liked but it's fine if you still like her."

Ijekiel's features seem to soften. "Me too. I really really like you too. Definitely in the way I used to like Athanasia, probably even more."

Keira smiles a big bright smile. "Then, will you kiss me?" She asks. Ijekiel now is just as red as her. "Yes, definitely."

He leans down and presses his lips against hers. Keira smiles into the kiss. She wraps her arm around his neck.

"Ey! What the fuck!" Another voice calls out. Keira quickly pulls away from Ijekiel and looks at her furious looking brother.

The blond girl behind him sighs. "Lucas, just be happy for Ijekiel. He found himself a girlfriend. Why, are you even upset?" She looks absolutely done with his bullshit

.

"That's my baby sister!" Lucas glares at Ijekiels hands around Keiras waist. "Get your hands off her! Don't kiss her!"

Keira rolls her eyes. "Shut up. I'm not a baby."

"You have a sister?" Athanasia sounds surprised. "You said you were an only child! You liar!"

Keira hums. "Yeah, that's my brother in a nutshell." Then, after a moment, she adds. "Both brothers."

Athanasia's eyes widen. "Both brothers? There's more than one?" The blonds head shoots around to her boyfriend. "How many siblings do you have?" She asks loudly.

Lucas groans. "Three. Benjamin, Leilin, and, well, Keira," He admits and then pauses. "Also, my parents are alive. I lied about that, too."

Keira looks at him, surprised. "You said they were dead? Does Mother know? Does Father know?" Her hand goes up to her head. "They'll kill you." She grins. "Oh my, they're going to be furious."

Then a grin shows up on her face. "Unless of course-"

"Don't," threatens Lucas. "Don't you dare try to blackmail me."

Keira rolls her eyes. "I would never dare to attempt to do that, my dear brother," She claims.

"Hold up," interrupts Athanasia. "I think we've glossed over the fact that you lied to me way too fast."

The blond looks at her boyfriend. Anger in her jewel eyes.

Lucas sighs. His head is turned downward, and he looks a bit like a sad puppy. Keira doesn't know how to react to that. She's never seen her brother like that.

"I'm sorry, princess," he says. "I have no excuse for that. I wanted to tell you, I just wasn't sure how."

Keira looks from the fighting couple to her now boyfriend? Is that what he is?

"Ijekiel." She grabs his arm. "Let's leave them alone. I'm feeling better now, how about we dance some more?"

Ijekiel turns his gaze downwards and towards the purple eyed girl. A small smile on his lips. "Yes, let's dance some more."
