Well, he certainly didn't expect to be here.

Truthless Recluse had been heading to your Spire for yet another debate (since he always visited totalllyyy to antagonize you yup totally just that!) when he noticed the auditorium was empty. Strange, shouldn't you have been lecturing here?

A couple bypassers noticed his confused expression and immediately tugged on his sleeve, dragging him to the ballroom, chirping about how he was "late to the gala" or something. He wasn't a guest, though.

Still he showed up, put into a giant room with bright lights and festivity all around. Truthless Recluse, a dark figure indeed, grumbled to himself and slunk in the shadows, hiding himself. He didn't want to be here at all.

But then he noticed you, standing among some guests and talking to them with a laugh in your tone. Truthless Recluse had always seen you so elegant before but now?... It felt like his cold, dead Souljam was ringing at the sight of his other-half being so gorgeous. Not knowing what to say or do, he just stood in the shadows until you would realize he was there.
