((Open to anyone and anything - Alexander is cool with anyone showing up at his party even if you're dirt poor and not royal The only consequence is that you may have to chat with him.)) The castle was as clean as it could have been (but then again, it always was) and with the flick of Alexander's hand, the band started playing. He practically danced around the room as he double-checked that the kitchen had prepared extra fruit skewers and those strange things they called sandwiches. He dressed in a white button-up shirt, nice black pants, and his hair was as light as ever (ha ha ha) as he took his seat at the very front of the room awaiting his guests. "Bring the kingdom in to meet their king!" he announced as the doors opened and people started coming in.

One of the first people to walk in with the wave of other guests was Chika, who immediately stopped upon entering the great castle and giving it a slightly disgusted look. It was clean, it was friendly, it was...bright.
She saw Alexander on the throne at the end of the room and kept her eye on him. "So that's the new king, is it? He certainly doesn't look like much," she said to herself as she blindly followed some people to a table at the side of the room.

By the new king's side stood a young man wearing a heavy black cloak, a sword by his side. His bright green eyes swept around the room suspiciously - the Santo-Luce captain, Alex.

Alexander noted how the young captain beside him stood fully at attention and he grinned, getting up from the throne.
"Hey there, Double, go take yourself a break or something - there's some cute girls here for courting," he grinned, having called Alex his 'Double' for awhile as they shared the same first name - if it weren't for the fact that they looked entirely different, he would have gladly switched positions from time to time just to get away from his father's constant complaining.
At that time as well, Alexander also took note of the pale, black-haired woman who had just stepped in moments ago. She looked slightly older, but age never stood in the way of true love.

"Ooh parties! I love parties!" Kevin Uruhane walked in, spinning his cane and smiling at everyone. "Drinks for everyone!"

Alex looked at his king and nodded. "With your permission."
Personally, there was no girl he wanted to 'court' here, but he decided to have some fun anyway. It had been a while since he'd been able to just let loose.

Alexander smiled at Alex and politely waved him off - it was a party, he didn't need bodyguards at a party. Alexander's attention was suddenly grabbed then by a man at the end of the hall. He looked over, and couldn't help but laugh and clap at the loud, green-hatted man who had just paraded into the party.
"Yes!" he exclaimed, "just like that! That is the kind of spirit I appreciate at a party of my hosting!" He immediately strolled over and gave a polite bow to Kevin.
"You there! I like your attitude - who are you and why aren't we friends?"

"Ah, my name is Kevin Uruhane and...I have no idea why we're not friends!" he responded with enthusiam.

Alex watched his king walk over to socialize with the man in the green hat, smiled, then walked over to the lady previously being eyed by the ruler. Since she was single, she was fair game, despite his lack of interest in a true commitment.
"Hello, there," he said in a smooth tone. "What have we here?"

Trucido walked in the Castle rubbing his hands together as he saw the decorations "Ah, Alexander the Great, How is everything?" He asked the new king.

Alexander laughed and stuck his hand out to Kevin. "Well then, we should change that, shouldn't we? Alexander Cornelius Frexton, Sir Uruhane - it's a real pleasure to meet you, come by again whether I'm having a party or not."
His ears perked upon hearing Trucido's voice by him and he quickly turned his head to face him, saying, "Ah, Trucido bro! Everything's great, we're all just having ourselves a grand time just getting to know one another. How are you?"

Chika looked up and gave a sly smile to the dark-haired man who had approached her. Her first reaction nowadays would have been to stab him, but alas that was not what a lady did.
"Chika Herrlock, sir," she replied promptly, taking herself a seat and crossing one leg over the other, "a captain of Guasto. And yourself?" She adjusted the skirt of her dress a little - she prided herself on giving off an always-alluring air, which meant she had to look and act the part.

He flicked his hair back out of his eyes, relaxed, and turned on the charm.
"Alex of Santo-Luce, Captain of Santo-Luce. It's always a pleasure meeting a fellow captain... especially one as beautiful as you." He made a sweeping bow, always the charmer. He recognized someone who wouldn't mind his attention but wouldn't think he wanted into something long-term... at least, he hoped she wouldn't mind.

"I am good, and how is the Kingdom?" Trucido asked. "Do you have any Ice Cream?"

Chika grinned at Alex. "Oh, how charming, Captain Alex. I must say I rarely get to meet handsome men who are quite as...able-bodied as yourself," she threw in the full-bodied check-out with her eyes before she scooted herself over a bit and waved over a servant for a drink.
"Would you care to sit and...chat with me, Captain?" she asked, flashing him another flirty grin.
