OOC: I'm so tired while I write this! I hope it makes sense! I'm adding a brief summary of Killian's history up to this point (very brief >_>) so mentally, one can know where he is coming from!
-------------
Being in a grand party full of women in decadent costumes put Killian in a prime place to do a bit of appreciative people viewing, but that was, honestly, the furthest thing from his mind. He had been sweet on a girl long before this event, but things hadn't gone welll, and now she had disappeared, and along with it, his heart, so it seemed.
So It was hard for him to focus on much of anything, but what brought him into becoming a knight was General Serenus's generosity, and he... gladly excepted the position and did not realize that he would have been separated from his 'girlfriend' Solita. But finding out she was a mage, and one who saved his life, complicated things greatly..
Then she simply..
disappeared.
So while he was still lamenting over a lost girl, he hadn't realized where he was walking for just that moment and nearly walked clean into a incredibly tall, female snake
His blue eyes went wide at the sight of her, and then his face, red from the loooks she gave him
For a moment, he was paused, half in horror, half not knowing what to do, considering he always tensed up under scrutiny (or in this case, flirtation!)
But recalling his manners quickly, he bowed his head to the lady.
"My lady, apologies! but I must be on my way. The Grand Duke himself has assigned me to doing rounds, so please forgive me. I hadn't meant to nearly run into you, er.." and he paused to observe her curious costume, and wanted to comment, but felt weird and assumed it was not his place. After all, he was a knight- and she a lady- and he was not a guest, after all nor a true knight (yet!)
