Lloyd is going to be even more angry because a little seven year old member said that they left him behind 3Zuka said:Valken Truss

Valken was quite happily making out with his gorgeous Millie, slipping his hands behind her head to cradle her almost to his face. Well he WAS enjoying it until he felt a shadow out of place. How to put it to words... You see Valken had a connection with the Shadows, he could keenly sense all of them, like his feet were the tiny little feet of a spider as they balanced gently on their own web. And just like a spider, he could feel the tiniest of a ripple on the web when a bug were to flutter to close or land on it. And this was precisely what had happened. He stilled in his kiss as his dark purple eyes slipped open, and if one were to focus very solidly on his face under the cover of the dark strands of his hair, might they see the tiniest of a glow, a shimmering of purple which only occurred when he was in pitch blackness and taping into his powers.
Here he slowly pulled away from Millie's face and gave her the gentlest of smile's, masking his tenseness as his 'spidey senses' were tingling. A shadow just appeared... No, that wasn't right, it hadn't just appeared shadows didn't do that...they were either there, or they were not. It was more....it had always been there but...was hidden? And now he had become aware of it? Valken turned then as he heard a voice approach, breaking apart from Millie with that same confusion plastered on his face, his gaze met with the same girl from across the room. "Aren't I always?" He casually responded as that same part confused, part intrigued frown still crossed his face. "And you might be?"
Valken wanted to keep his eyes on the girl but his attention was being pulled elsewhere. He felt like if he glanced away once more she might vanish, but it was a risk he had to take. Besides.. if he put his mind to it he would be able to find her again...
The dark haired tall man turned back to face the boy he hadn't gotten a name for, noticing almost instantly in this posture and the way he wasn't looking in any particular conscious direction that he was blind. He shot a glare at Ferra, almost to say, did you really introduce everyone by pointing when clearly he could not see? Valken actually bend down, putting a gloved hand on his shoulder so at least the boy knew he was facing Valken as he spoke. "VezieVarks is it? May I call you Vex?" A smile actually tugging on his normally cheeky face, it might have seemed strange to smile to a blind person but Valken was fully aware just how much facial expression could be conveyed through words alone. Here he glanced as he introduced his bird who was still out to get at Millie it seemed. Valken looked back to him warmly. "Would you mind telling your faithful companion Horus to avoid Millie for awhile? Since you arrived he has done nothing but get in her personal space, and I was only just now aware she had a fear of birds..."
Not a moment later and while Valken was just starting to straighten, though he kept a hand on Vex's shoulder, did Guild Master Lloyd's voice carry to his ear and Valken meerly grinned to him. "Fancy seeing you here!!" It was in his usual, cheeky tone and had more then one meaning... afterall he was one of the few that knew Lloyd would attend the festival in the beginning and the two had seen each other only the day previously.
Before he could respond with something along the lines of, Millie gave me a wonderful Fashion show the night before, he noticed Maya introduce the girl (she sure looked like it from his angle) And as he always did with Mages of higher rank or statue he immediately stepped forward to approach her. Before her now, the tall man actually bent down onto a knee, and bowed his head, grasping her hand and peeling it towards him to kiss the outside of it before his eyes slowly peeled open and he tilted his head up to her. "A pleasure, Aria." His words like always liquid smooth. He pulled himself back then to his full height, turning slightly to face Maya now.
Clip clip clip.
He could hear her approach even before he fully faced her and it seemed every pace closer made his shoulders sag a portion, his head bend a fraction, hands lifting to his chest in almost a scared boy fashion. It was a rather hilarious thing to see, because Valken was only every boisterous, egotistical and downright full of himself. On the outside, at least. The accusation flying from her lips along with the stern look actually had Valken's purple eyes fly open and his hands spread up almost as if to protect himself from a physical attack.
"No! I...mean...maybe...Yes!!" Gesturing in an accusing fashion towards Noah and Talon. "T..those two! They wanted to join Lamia Scale, and that one in particular, the one that looks almost like my brother, he tried to hit on Millie! We worked it out in the end! Didn't even break the Train Station, see?!" Having a half panicked laugh as he did. He could only image if she were still annoyed she might throw that old, wrinkly, naked illusion at him again... and lord knows it took hours to get that scary thought from his head... Even with Millie's new clothing!
Once she settled down the stern expression and posture, Valken took a deep releasing breath out... Crisis averted.
Then Emmerich piped up.... Valken looked to him with huge, fearful eyes, suddenly waving his arms as if to say, Don't say that! Anything but that! Not only telling Lloyd how drunk he got, but the destruction was not something the Guild Master was too keen on... they weren't Fairytail Afterall!! Valken actually legitimately face palmed before jogging back over to Fraust and punching him none to lightly right on the side of his rib cage, making sure to dig the knuckles in painfully while he sneakily stepped a foot in behind his own, stamping his shadow to prevent him from pulling away from the painful twist of his wrist as he buried his knuckles in deeper. "HHAHAHAHhahahah oh Frausty you're so funny! Hilarious even! You know how much Lloyd loves drunks...hHhahahahhhaah...Great joke buddy!" His eyes pretty much glaring at him while he said all this.
