Re: Osiris - Grand Yacht Party
Kale offered Kyoko one of his signature roughish grins, but nodded seriously. He held out his arm to Kyoko once they were both scanned for any weapons or electronic devices. Allowing her to entwine her arm with his they both walked into the grand ballroom of the enormous yacht. "Floatin' candles, huh?" Kale said out of the side of his mouth in a low voice, smirking at the sheer elaboratness of the place. Kale bet he could keep Destiny fueled and her crew fed for months on what it cost these wealthy hun duns to have floating candles.
"Ah, Lady Monroe!" a woman with hair piled so high atop her head that Kale was given the impression that she might just fall over practically shoved her way (in the politest way possible) through the crowd and up to him and Kyoko, dragging a rather bored looking gentleman in her wake. "It's such a pleasure to see you back on Osiris, I've heard the most terrible rumors of you traveling about on the most god forsaken vessel. But I said to myself, surely Kyoko Monroe would never do that, she is far to sophisticated. Really, the things people do say." she barely paused for a breath before turning her scrutinizing gaze on Kale. "And who is this?" she seemed to be trying desperately to recall Kale's face, sure that she couldn't possibly not know one of the people at the Grand Yacht Party. Bitsy Valtree made it her business to know absolutely everyone of any importance. "Are you that new young artist everyones been raving about? I'm sure I must have seen your photo in the daily bulletien!"
Kale looked over at Kyoko and tried desperately not to laugh right out at this woman. He turned back to her with a polite incline of his head, "I surely am not, Miss. I Captain a ship. Captain Kale Galway. It really is the most terrible vessel." Kale said, his tone was completely polite but his grin was completely contemptuous and mocking. "Ah, they have wine, I'll get us a glass." Kale said, to excuse himself. He nodded again to the two woman and the man who was still hardly paying any attention to his surroundings, and went off to the alcove where three men in white suits were pouring wine into sparkling glasses.
Bitsy was left staring after Kale, then she looked to Kyoko with a very snobbish expression, "Charming." she said dryly.
