"If I may point out, My Lady, you will completely destroy your beautiful lipstick if you continue like that," Lance pointed out, mild but kind. "It is true, many still reserve jusgement, though everyone here does support your union. Ah, here is someone who will speak to you, and gladly!"
He gestured to another vampire coming toward them. It appeared Lance was walking toward himself the two looked so alike! The only difference could only be seen on second glance. Lance was perfect and poised, not a seam out of place. His doppelganger was slightly more rumpled in appearence, just barely though it stood out amid the finery surrounding him, and his cocky smile and dancing eyes were far more daring than Lance's mild expression.
One hand rested on the table, and a single finger tapped. "A silver tongue, you have not, child," he said quietly. "Your flattery does you more ill than good in this moment. Again, this union pleases me, and it suits our united desires to do what is best for both of our respective countries, but you have a long way to go before you achieve the power of your father. While I may not have liked your father or what he stood for, I respected him. You... not yet. Perhaps in time." He paused again, weighing his words. "As you are my brother, now, and the stakes of our contries hang in the balance, I shall not slap you for referring to your sister as a 'posession.' Now come. Sit on my left and speak with me on matters of no importance. Appearence is everything."
