|| before i begin to write, just a general warning for spoilers of the book.
i’m writing celia within the five years after she leaves evelyn. however, i’m taking influence of her personality from the later years (i’m a slut for how awful she can be wbk)
who else ! surely he wouldn't think her capable of putting anthony — or dare she say colin — above him ??
cheeks aglow from her earlier sips , she's happy to serve as a barrier between him and the others .
❛ i always do please my audience . ❜ »
gregory, hm? well, he'll accept that, then - he's the best of them, undoubtedly.
upon spotting her approach, benedict stands up straight, posture fixed, with a grin ready to greet her.
“thank you for saving me from this most stifling boredom,” he whispers once she is in front +
gregory was being particularly charming earlier this evening .
a flute carefully balanced in each hand as she makes her way out ! doing her best to search through the masks to find the artist before heading towards a man she thinks might be him .
and . . . who exactly did he lose his place to? out of curiosity.
he waits patiently, every so often lifting his head to scan over the crowd in anticipation of seeing her.
A flask in hand, Benedict discreetly adds an... even stronger punch to his drink, his cheeks rosy and flushed and eyes glassy and watery. He lingers far from the dancefloor, enjoying a rare moment of reprieve, mouth upturned into the smallest of silly grins.
