Hawthorne
Hawthorne frowned a bit at Celeste, realizing what she was doing. The captain wasn't completely ignorant to how Arion and Basil were acting. If he wasn't mistaken, the two of them were crushing on each other a bit. There was no way he was going to let this get out of hand. The last thing he wanted was for his little sister to fall for Arion. Hawthorne crossed his arms over his chest, silently glaring at the three of them. Though, Basil was too preoccupied to care about her brother's grievances.
Basil
Basil's cheeks were a bright pink as she shook Arion's hand delicately. " It's lovely to meet you, Arion. My brother speaks very highly of you." she smiled up at him, though not so her teeth showed, " And you don’t have to call me ma’am. I’m just Basil. " She wasn't quite sure what to make of Arion. Her heart beat just a little faster as soon as she had caught a glimpse of him. Arion was obviously a powerful Quell and very handsome, even with the blood trailing down his lip and jaw. It was rather funny to think that he was nervous around someone as unassuming as she was.
Noticing his busted lip more, Basil reached into her pocket and took out a fancy looking handkerchief. It had her name and a tiny rose stitched on one of the corners and smelled faintly of her perfume. " You... have a bit of blood on your face" She explained, offering it to him shyly.
