[Conner was ladling himself some punch when he heard the familiar voice. He turns around, opening his mouth to respond with something clever ... but there she is, looking stunning in a plain white dress.

[Stunning might actually be the right word too, because it takes a second, but Kon realizes that he completely forgot what he was going to say. Train of thought, totally off the tracks. Instead of actually saying anything, he just stood there for a beat with this look of completely unconcealed awe at just how good she looked plastered across his face.

[Congratulations, Yang, you got him. That's hard to do.

[But, he recovers quickly enough.]


Oh no, it's the genuine article. Trying out a new look.

[He tugged on his tie for emphasis before holding out the glass of punch in his hand, offering it to her. He hadn't had any of it yet - he could always pour himself another.]

[The moment he turned around and went speechless, Yang smiled. Gotcha, she couldn't help but think as she stood still under Kon's appreciative gaze. She knew she looked good, and so did he - the suit was tailored just right, accentuating his broadness.

When he finally managed to speak, Yang grinned wider.]


Well, I like it. It's a good look.

[With a nod of thanks, she took the glass of punch.]

Enjoying yourself?

Yeah, I've been told the ladies like this for ... some reason.

[He shrugs as he turns to get himself a new glass of punch. He still feels weird in it - out of place.]

Also, you're one to talk about good looks right now.

[He adds, glancing over his shoulder and nodding at her and her dress. Because that's just not fair, dude, and you know it. He turns around, punch in hand, and leans slightly on the table.]

And yeah. More than I thought I would, really. Kinda formal for me, but it's nice.

Ladies, huh [She emphasizes the plural, just to have a laugh. He can say all he wants, he's obviously not very comfortable, which is fair enough. Most of them are always in some kind of combat-ready outfit, not all these bells and whistles.

When he mentions how she looks, though, Yang gives him a little bow, grinning wide.]


I did put some work into it.

[At least she didn't have to do her hair, or anything. It's just, as usual, cascading down her back, barely brushed. A mane more than anything else.]

I'm sure before the end of the night, everyone will drop the formal part. People are just playing dress up for a bit.

[Taking a sip of punch, she raises an eyebrow at Kon.]

Wanna dance?
conner_el: (Cocky grin)

[personal profile] conner_el 2016-07-28 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
Are you telling me I'm not gonna turn more than one head right now?

[He asks, jokingly indignant, spreading his arms to gesture at all of his besuited glory and doing a little catwalk twirl. Look at him. The picture of sophisticated grace, right here.]

It shows. It looks good on you. Better than this thing probably does on me.

[That, however, is 100% genuine, no silliness involved. Of course, some of that does creep back in when she asks him to dance. He points at himself, as if he's surprised by that?]

Not gonna piss off your date, am I?

[Yang chuckles, patting his arm.] 'Course you are.

[When he mentions her date, Yang laughs even more. It's sweet of him to think that she would have one, but Yang doesn't really date. She's not good at it; hence the friends with benefits situations she finds herself in more often. It works for her, it's good.]

I'm sure my sister will be absolutely fine with me dancing with you, Kon.

[He really shouldn't be surprised by that, knowing her as well as he does. And yet? Totally catches him by surprise.

[He figured guys would be tripping over themselves to ask her, even if it was just for the one night. It was the main reason he hadn't done it himself - he figured someone had already beaten him to the punch by the time he actually decided to go.

[It was actually a pleasant surprise to know that he was wrong.]


Mmkay. Then I guess it depends on whether or not you're willing to put up with the fact that I can't dance, and I probably will step on your feet at least once.

[And that's not him being cute - not entirely - that probably will happen.]
