[ Well, he was still impressed at the display all the same! Here's one Lancer just casually applauding Laura's glorious return with that one last bite of cookie stuck in his mouth! ] No harm was done... yet, but I can't really say its your problem or responsibility to bear. Unless you are the hostess of this party-- then otherwise, well done on taking care of the problem! That aside, I don't believe we even exchanged names yet, have we? Hrm... I don't mind you calling me by my real name, but a common nickname I was given was 'Lancer', but Enkidu is fine if you rather have that.

The host is my father-- my name is Laura S. Arseid.

[ full name sure, why not... though she tilts her head after a minute. ]

Do you have a preference? I can just as easily use either.

[trapofthewilds]

Not really no, but do you have a preference for yours? You seem the type that casual names are reserved for close friends. And unless you think of me as a friend, which I'll be admittedly flattered after having a brief introduction together, I doubt that will be the case. Although I do have to wonder about your father's... 'generosity' with his guest roster. Seeing as the man you kindly escorted out of the premises was here to begin with being an example, I would assume that crashers are common for your family parties? [ And so is some random legendary spirit too for that matter, but eh. Details. ]

[arseid]

You'll have to forgive me for the formality of my speech, but I assure you, calling me Laura is fine. [ really, she doesn't care unless the person in question is outright demanding formality from her. ]

As for that, my father and I both feel as though celebrations needn't be available only to nobility, so we welcome anyone. If they behave in a manner that troubles a great deal of people, however, then we kindly ask them to behave as such elsewhere.

I see! So what were to happen if someone decides to become a little... rough for the sake of wanting to roughhouse? Granted this party hardly requires someone to cause such a scene, but having someone wanting to blow of steam to escape such a crowded place must be a common feeling or two.

Especially if, say, I could provide that chance? Not that I would promote violence or anything unnecessary, but if someone needed an excuse for such an exchange if only to get a bit of fresh air... then I suppose I could be willing to offer my services. Assuming that blade of yours isn't something for decoration!

... If you would like to challenge me, sir, you need only ask.

[ ... is what she's taking from that. And there's no way she'd tote around a sword just for show, so even though she says so politely, there's something like a fire in her eyes. ]
