agent merlin leans nonchalantly against a column, sipping at a glass of some wine most likely worth more than his weekly paycheck. he's just escaped a dull conversation with a few guests affiliated with assorted private companies — pawning them off on another agent with more knowledge of the field and technological aspects of the organisation. " how has your evening been thus far ? " he asks to the person approaching — initially preparing for the mental toll of conversation like four-dimensional chess, but relaxing a little as he sees they are another agent of mercy. not that his coworkers are that much easier to make conversation with, but the stakes are at least a little lower.

nix despises wearing tuxedos. they always seem to be either a size too small or a size too big. never fitting just right. feels like an image of a boy wearing his father's clothes, the sleeves too long on his arms, a gap at the back of his shoes. never fitting. never his own. that is, of course, an exaggeration. agent neo, as he stands there, in between many people he knows, and a few he doesn't, wears a tailored tuxedo, most likely something designer. his silver cufflinks glint from the lights reflecting on them, a pair of black cartier browline glasses up his nose. this is his entry back into this world after all, the jubilé of sentinel and mercy's partnership. and ironically enough, the start of him picking up the mantle of agent neo again. there is a sense of excitement, a sort of nervousness clinging to his frame ( despite knowing this organization for almost twenty years now ) as he makes his way through the crowds. there's a flute of champagne grasped in one hand, still full, an accessory to keep his hands full more than anything else. while he expects to see familiar faces, this one still makes him freeze in surprise. eyes widening, his expression softens almost immediately. "ani —-" the nickname falls from his lips with ease, and he takes a step closer to her. "i would say small world but..." the words linger off, and a part of him wishes there weren't so many people around. "how have you been?"

𝙻 𝙾 𝙲 𝙰 𝚃 𝙸 𝙾 𝙽 : GOVERNOR'S BALL 𝙵 𝚁 𝙾 𝙼 : AGENT PHOENIX 𝚃 𝙾 : AGENT STEELHEART, ( @1nfernals )

that was quick. the switch between the celebrations and the sudden panic is so quick that if kit wasn't so well-versed in this line of work, he would surely get whiplash from it. the applause cuts off in an almost comedic way the moment ceo kang leaves the stage, large lights shutting off, giving way to eerieness. reds, blues, and whites reflect off designer clothes, jewelry; some of which kit's also wearing himself. the artificial shine to his face, the shimmery eyeshadow, the smoky eyeliner. the glamour of it all seems to vanish instantly. a glance at his phone relays a message that does not surprise him with the way lights have shut off, but it's more than enough to flip that switch in kit's mind as well, slipping into work mode, eyes flitting around to see, to pick up anything important. his gaze stops short at the sight of a familiar face, their eyes meet up despite the lack of main lights. kit moves slowly on his feet, as if nothing was wrong, near the table with the drinks, then next to her side. being next to zeliha again, in a situation like this one, brings up more memories than he has the time to think about. it's been way too long since they have done this. since they have simply had a chat together. there will be time to talk and mull over all of these, to pull her aside and ask where the hell she had been. instead, for the moment, he finds it easy to slip into that rhythm they have ( had ? ) with each other on the field. once within earshot, he stands next to her, his right side brushing against her left. "zel." nickname slips perhaps way too easily, dark eyes continuing to scan every possible movement he can. "do you have any further information about... all of this?" quiet enough that only she can hear. "what's next? should i scout the area?"

clad in a two-piece suit by 𝐺𝐼𝑂𝑅𝐺𝐼𝑂 𝐴𝑅𝑀𝐴𝑁𝐼's last f/w collection, agent 𝐏𝐇𝐎𝐄𝐍𝐈𝐗 enters the ball only half an hour late. deciding to forego a shirt, instead, adorning his neck, a piece from 𝐵𝑉𝐿𝐺𝐴𝑅𝐼 from their serpenti collection, rubies shining against the skin. other pieces of jewelry and rings on his fingers, he tends to twist them as he speaks, a dazzling smile on his face.

hands wrapped around two champagne flutes, one alcoholic, the other not, kit cuts a striking image. a deep neckline due to the lack of a shirt, a long serpentine necklace draped along his neck. sort of a silver glitter on his eyelids above kohl-rimmed dark brown eyes. when he spots a familiar face across the room, a smile spreads across his face, not necessarily a dazzling one granted to the rest of the crowd, a more genuine, softer look reserved to a handful of people instead. making his way across the people, he brushes his shoulder against uriel's once in his space. "don't you clean up well." less of a tease, more of a compliment. one that kit sincerely means. after a hum, he holds out the flute. "this one's yours. non-alcoholic." once his hand is empty, he puts it behind his friend's back, leading them to a side of the room so they can properly chat. "so, how's everything going, urie — enjoying yourself?"

ever since the grand event had started, the hours began to mingle together and despite the darkness outside, it was hard to tell how late it really was. no care from others was shown regarding that, thus adair did not even try to bring such silly topics up to anyone. many, from the looks of crowded dance floor, were enjoying themselves. others, if not by dancing, were spending their time at the bar. for a little while adair too, managed to find stillness in the midst of chaos that had already taken over the place and its guests. and although that had covered most of the attendees, there were a few outcasts. black sheep, if you will. a few that didn't feel the vibe of the evening or simply decided to not partake in the silly game that so many power hungry individuals were obssessed with so much.

❝ enjoying yourself? ❞ the agent inquired without peeling their eyes off the dance floor upon sensing a familiar restless presence enter their space. ❝ hope you did not give into their persistent nagging about finishing these... drinks. ❞ or whatever those were, they thought. adair tilted their head towards the table next to them and a couple full glasses of what seemed to be champagne resting on top of it. just then, as if lightning had struck from the sky above, did adair come to an odd realization ― just how many times they had missed out on properly greeting their colleagues. well, some of them. those they respected enough to put effort into welcoming. ❝ hi [   ...   ] ❞

they added after turning around enough to face the other. eliot was one of good guys in adair's book, after all. thus, it made sense for adair to treat them like one in hopes of him eventually connecting these puzzle pieces together.
