Teeheehee, you might not be the first I leave in a muddle~
Marienne Martell
Quite the den of iniquity~? The brow of a beauty in a cape so dark it looked black piquing as she paused in the moonlight, Marienne Martell couldn't help but feel the corners of her mouth curl upward a little as she caught the sound of singing and laughter riding on the air toward her ears, and looked toward the run down locale from which it had come from. Standing before a site that had clearly seen better days, not only were windows cracked and one of the doors seeming to hang half way off the hinges, but one could readily see the 'standard' of the clientele who stumbled forth from it was not much better either.
Takes me back to my college years~? Folk seeming to wobble away from the place in an unsteady fashion which seemed to require the support from a friend or lover to stop them falling while others made for alleyways and the dock nearby in the hope of relieving their bladders, the air was rife with rebel spirit and perhaps what most of her rank would consider repugnance as well, but this raven couldn't help but feel a note of nostalgia as she continued onward and lifted her fingers to the hood she was wearing. After all, even with how polished as she looked now, that didn't mean she hadn't had some excitement in her youth, right?
Don't I seem out of place now, hm~? Moving away from that era in her life or at least wishing to appear that she had however, it was for this reason she wore the cape which wrapped around her and the hood that concealed her face, at least until she stepped inside that half broken doorway and removed it to get a proper view of the place. Or perhaps to allow the place to get a proper view of her.?
Oh~? What's the matter, boys~? Wasting little time in peeling the whole thing from her once she was inside and showing off the tight little cocktail dress and heels she was sporting beneath it, Marienne let her golden gaze was over the sea of revelry around her and would be a liar if she didn't get a little bit of a thrill even now when she spied eyes which were transfixed upon her, and folk pausing in whatever they were doing to enjoy what had been presented before them.
Never seen a lady taking a walk on the wild side, hm~? Certainly looking like she would have been quite a rare specimen in a place like this one, while there were plenty of women about none would have carried quite that sense of elegance and refinement which came so naturally to Miss Martell, and that was something not only which set her apart from the pack but was also something she was counting on.
“Good evening. Might I trouble you for a Gin and Tonic~?” Arriving this evening with every intention of exploiting how out of place she appeared to be, as she ordered a drink the dark delight knew that tonight was all about 'fishing' to see if she might land a fine prize, and didn't mind stepping out a little to gain it, or risking the dangers inherent to a place like this either, for that matter.
