Darius trailed behind his brother quietly, like a walking statue. None dared turn down the drinks in the presence of The Hand of Noxus. He'd give a court nod to Mundo before moving to the three his Brother took interest in now. Rose, Jay, and Damian. When Draven finally spoke and extended his hand he placed his hand upon Draven's shoulder.
"Brother. If you need to introduce yourself, I believe that there may be a problem." He let out but a single laugh that was followed by a sigh. "I take it the ceremony is to your liking?" His eyes once again fell to the cake in the shape of his head. It was undeniably unignorable.

Jay was about to respond when Darius and Draven came up. When Draven first introduced himself, Jay nodded rather vigorously. "Oh, I know who you are! Of course! I'm Jay, I just stopped by, thought it may be fun. Funny thing, I know your--"
At that, he stopped and turned to face Darius. He stood at attention and tried to salute, but the spinning motion caused him to stumble on his cloak, barely regaining his composure before snapping to attention. "General Darius, sir! Not slacking off, sir. Er...your...? Never mind." He shook his head and turned back to Rose.
He took out a scrap of paper and a pen, scrawling his address on it and handing it to her. "Yea, that's my address. It's...uh..." He looked at the scrap for a moment, then nodded. "Yea, it's downtown. And, lesse...I--wait, what?" His eyes widened a bit, but then dimmed back to normal. "Oh. Right. If its a hassle, yea, I wouldn't mind a quick kip over. I may have to clear some space, but...no problem." He smiled weakly, even more nervous now that one of his bosses was present.

Draven Laughs. "i didn't know this one was under your command brother." Draven says throwing his arm around Jay."Remember to ask Darius here what happened when he first join the Military best story ever, Hes a big ol teddy bear underneath it all." he whispers to Jay. "Damian my good man ill be at your parents shop tomorrow and ill be sure to tell them that you personally sold me on their services." Draven says taking another drink. "Now i must leave gotta rub elbows with everyone else and try to loosen my brother up just a bit." He says with a bow as he turns to walk off. "Brother when are you gonna settle down and pop out little "Hand of Noxus'? He says smiling. "All this seriousness is gonna take its toll after a while." As Draven chuckles and hand his brother a drink.

Sonder nods, but doesn't speak again, noticing the return of his nerves in Darius' presence. She can't pretend she's not nervous, as well; Draven may be the Glorious Executioner, but Darius is the Grand General's right-hand man, and has a lot more of a political presence. Swallowing her tension with a quick sip of her water, she straightens her spine, nodding politely to the General, unwilling to speak lest she bother him.
Glad for the distraction of her new acquaintance, Rose smiles as she takes the scrap, looking it over. The fact he'd given her both a sample of his handwriting and his written address meant he was likely trustworthy, at least.
"It's not a problem." Though she's more composed than he is, it's only by a thread, and she decides to leave the social cues to him.
"So, shall I see you after the party, or stay here?"

Jay shrugged. "Either is fine, I suppose - I wouldn't mind you staying - but if you must be off, I would be glad to meet you after the party." He bit into his cookie, swiftly realizing Darius was not officially on duty and relaxing again. However, Rose didn't seem as at ease for the first time in their conversation. "You know, actually, I need to get going too." He checked his invisible wristwatch (as in poor excuse) with this statement. "I guess I will see you...whenever you feel like stopping by." With that, he waved farewell and made for the door.

"Graah, Mundo came to Darius' birthday? Mundo brought no present for Darius... Mundo send one later."
The Doctor took his massive boombox to one end of the room, where presumably it was suitable for dancing and lots of moving around. He turned the boombox back on, pounding out its sweet sweet beats for the rest of the party-goers to dance to. Mundo, however, was not as interested in dancing anymore, as he was in joining and listening into the Brothers Noxus' conversation. Quietly, but noticeably, the doctor joined the small circle, perhaps only adding to the intimidation of three of the League's most ruthless champions now staring at three other people the Doctor hardly knew.
Although, to be fair, it was very hard to take Dr. Mundo seriously, even if not doing so usually ended up in people with cleavers half-way through their bodies.

With that, he waved farewell and made for the door.
Sonder nods, pulling a chain from inside of her shirt and clicking a button atop a small locket. "Yeah, I'm thinking it's time to head out- shall we?" The locket pops open to reveal a small watch, and she follows him to the door. "I'll follow you."
Her smile appears again, and a spark of mischief lights in her eyes as she offers her arm.
Morgana hadn't been sure if she should come or not. It was bound to be a loud and boisterous affair. Still, she respected Darius and what he stood for mostly. She didn't always like some of the things that he did but he was loyal to the people and his cause and that put him in high standing with her.
On the other hand Draven was throwing the party, meaning that it would very likely get out of hand. Initially she had someone bring the cake over so she wouldn't have to make an appearance but later decided that she should at the very least make an appearance. If for no other reason then to let Darius know that the cake was in no way her idea.
She could hear the activity from the home before she had even made it onto his street. She almost second guessed herself right there and then but pushed on. She wouldn't give in to cowardice even if it was something as small as going into a situation that would make her uncomfortable.
The din of conversation and activity hit her as she entered. She steeled herself and continued on through the crowd. She was surprised by the amount of people crammed into the place. She knew she shouldn't have been though, Darius was well respected and Draven would be good at gathering attention to a party. If Draven was good at anything it was getting attention.
She looked through the crowd of people but couldn't find the person she sought. She found herself looking around for the door once again.

Draven Hears the door open and sees a familiar face poke her way through the crowd. "I didnt think you'd come Tonight." He says smiling at Morgana. Draven always had a soft spot for Morg, But He'd Never admit it in open company. "May i present to you the Hand of Noxus, Brother She made the cake for you not bad eh?Draven says as he introduces Darius.

"Oh - okay!" Jay hadn't expected her to tag along just yet, but it wasn't a problem. Leaving together may make her more comfortable, anyhow. He took her arm and led her out the door, holding it open and letting her through before he follows suite.

Damian couldn't help but once again smile weakly back at the man who praised his family's talents, though once the Executioner moved away to see to other guests the youngest Faust made his way intently towards the exit. He felt that he had been part of the soiree long enough for his father to be satisfied that the Faust family's presence would not ever be doubted, and decided it was opportune for him to take his leave. Setting his half-empty glass on a tray as a waiter passed, he moved briskly to the door that would act as his escape back into Noxus and the gateway to his return to his personal life's mission.
Along the way, he happened to pass by Morgana, the Fallen Angel, as she was approached by the host, to whom he turned and gave a respectful bow. "I thank you immensely for your praise, and for setting up this bash, Sir Draven, but I'm afraid I must be going. I apologize I can't stay longer, but I have some preparations to make before setting out tomorrow." he spoke respectfully to the Glorious Executioner, then gave the winged woman a courteous nod as he addressed her. "Ah, a pleasure to meet you, Lady Morgana. Do be careful not to have too much fun. If you'll excuse me." And with that he finally exited and swiftly left the estate behind.
"I didn't think I would ether. These sorts of gatherings make me feel out of place. I am not good with crowds or feeling like I am the center of attention." She looked around at all the people and again thought about slipping away quietly. It was a bit to late for that however.
She wasn't sure who the man was that addressed her but he was polite enough so she would return it even though she was becoming more and claustrophobic. "Thank you, I don't think you need to worry about having to much fun. I am not exactly known for my party animal ways."
She waited as Draven called Darius over. She smiled and waited as Draven introduced them formally. They had met in passing a few times but never in such a setting. "I assure you that while I made the cake it was all his idea. I would not have made such a thing if he had not been so determined."

While Draven was busy saying hello to his new guest, Mundo had walked over to the table with the Darius-head Cake, taking a slice for himself. Watching the Doctor somehow manage to hold the small paper plate and the far smaller fork in his colossal purple hands must have been quite the sight. As he returned once again to their small circle, the Doctor overheard Morgana's comments on the cake.
"Mundo thinks cake taste good. Mundo indifferent on how cake looks."
He tore off another chunk of the cake with his comparatively tiny fork, eating it piece by piece.
