Glancing between Michaela and her sister, keeping mum as she grabs for a champagne glass being offered in passing.

- But she could understand to some extent how it might not always be the same especially for one as young as he.

“Have you taken to the floor? Kate would go faint if she’ll hear you hadn’t enjoyed yourself.”

She cranes her head thoughtfully at his words, casting a sweeping glance across the room full of family, friends, and others Kate and Anthony had extended an invite out to. It was a familiar setting Daphne could grace herself into regardless of time apart. -

well … he feels as if he does not belong at the ball

[𝑫𝒂𝒑𝒉𝒏𝒆. @audamantine]

Oh, and why not keep his dear sister company, hm?

[𝐆. 𝐁𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐠𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐨𝐧 @OFTHEGAZE]

he is leaving the ball .. if needed, he’ll be in the drawing room, playing chess with himself. #tulipball

[𝑫𝒂𝒑𝒉𝒏𝒆. @audamantine]

She’s fanning herself now, as if that will do much effort of willing the heat from her cheeks away.

“And you? How have things been while I was away?”

“Eloise!” High-pitched gasp, flushing. “No, I—… Things have been busy as of late.”

[ᅟ ‍‍‍‍𝓮𝐥𝐨𝐢𝐬𝐞‍‍ ´ˎ˗ᅟ ‍‍ @emeraldfseason]

“I do not know, sister. Are you?”

[𝑫𝒂𝒑𝒉𝒏𝒆. @audamantine]

Well. (Turns her nose up with a tut.) I’m glad fatherhood has added more wits about you.

[𝑫𝒂𝒑𝒉𝒏𝒆. @audamantine]

Do I look like I’ve gotten pregnant? (Asking sharply.)

SMACKING HIS ARM WITH A FAN—

[𝑫𝒂𝒑𝒉𝒏𝒆. @audamantine]

Loudly clearing her throat. Stop missing one important sister.

[𝑫𝒂𝒑𝒉𝒏𝒆. @audamantine]

Blinking rapidly. “Benedict, I—” Her steps falter. “What is going on with you?”
