North

Within the Northern vicinity of the city, the wealthy gather behind meticulously trimmed hedges and high-class architecture. The pristine streets are paved with stone and the storefronts are brightly lit and inviting - for the right clientele. In the North, every establishment is eager to cater to the rich and the wealthy. Many such places are used to the sometimes peculiar requests of the otherworldly but here there is little that money cannot buy - whether it happens to be illegal or merely involves looking the other way. Vampires and Dark Hunters are often found upon these Northern streets, their long lives often contributing to their sizable wealth which allows them the luxuries that the North provides.

Anna was skeptical about Dorian's claim that he couldn't skate. Surely it was just a tactic to try and get out of the activity. It didn't deter her from pulling the fae to the skate rental counter. There was however a moment at Dorian's pause when the man asked after his shoe size that Anna thought he may back out. It was an interesting mix of emotions from fear to anger that fluttered through the vampire child. Luckily he accepted those shoes and they didn't have to find out what emotion the roulette would land on.

The young girl happily took her skates over to the bench and laced them up with ease. What had possessed her to bring up the nuptials between her Sebastian and Dorian she wasn't quite sure but the topic was brought up. She didn't know if Sebastian hadn't told Dorian, keeping him once more in the dark about her or told him that her presence at the wedding could be expected. "He's my Sebastian too." Anna wanted Dorian to know that she was well aware of what was going on...and she wasn't going to be left out. A small smile broke through those eerie flat features of hers at the mention of the dress though. "It's a princess' dress and you don't get any peeks. You'll just have to wait and see it."

With that Anna popped up and hurried out onto the ice. She didn't go far though before spinning around to face the entrance in wait for Dorian. It was a curious thing seeing him practically stumble onto the smooth surface. He really didn't know how to skate. Anna tilted her head at his sprawled position clinging to the wall as she slowly slid over to him. "...You're doing it wrong." She stated at long last once studying him. It took a moment longer of internal debate on whether to help him or not. Although she was accepting of his marriage to Sebastian, she was still figuring out just how she felt about the Fae. He had after all tried to lie to her about Sebastian moving away. She was still sore about that night.

It seemed Anna was in a rather amicable mood tonight as her hands reached out to shove Dorian's splayed leg towards his other. "Keep your legs closer." Then she pushed on his knees. "You have to bend your knees a little." Anna pointed to her own feet which were barely more than a foot apart and her knees which had the barest of bend to them. "Just like that. You can't lean back like that or you're gonna fall..." As she spoke she continued to poke and prod at the man in attempt to get him into he proper beginner ice skating position. "Now....don't move." The moment Dorian had managed to be in position she pushed his lower back, sending Dorian away from that wall towards the opposite one without much warning. If he obeyed her rules and didn't flail about he would glide easily to the other side. Anna meanwhile pushed off from her spot to glide beside Dorian with a soft giggle.
