 a lot of mentions throughout; Dante is open / Frankie for Ronan Bathes in Maple Syrup | Dancing Lobster | Mrs. Charlie Weasley | Seneca's Beard | That's So Fetch
Everything that happened went by in a blur. Of course, even with all the commotion, Dante was silently watching, observing, listening, and even a little eavesdropping on thoughts that were fluttering about. It really was a shame that certain people were determined to spoil the night's festivities with their close-mindedness. Did they not see that change was necessary for the them to be truly free? Such a pity it was for the likes of Milo Jordan and Saul Primeaux who didn't see the big picture that the Greater Good promised those who complied.
He had to give credit where credit was due: the Law Enforcement head was making quick work of silencing those who had to voice their opinion on things they knew nothing about. The Head Obliviator was even surprised at how quickly Scott Ferguson responded to his boss and acted accordingly; maybe there was more than just his blood status that was of value. The other's from that department, well, they never were really an impressive bunch were they? They always seemed oblivious to what was going on around them until it was too late.
And then there was darkness. Dante remained where he stood, silent, calm, and that drink still in his hand. He had seen what had caused the sudden removal of light, and again he had to give credit were credit was due. Needless to say, he was amused, especially when he overheard select curse words in his native tongue.
Then the darkness faded. It was, for him, easy to notice who no longer was present in the atrium. But he remained calm as ever as he casually made his way toward the exit, following the same path was Alphonsine and the Minister, and listening to others fleetingly as he passed by.
Frankie wasn't sure he wanted to believe everything that had just happened before his very own eyes. It was one thing for Scott not to respond to him, but it was an entirely different matter when he immediately went to collect Saul after being barked at by Bain. He didn't want to believe what the security officer was doing, but the man's actions were speaking volumes to him. He was ... one of them.
Ronan Carter's actions were enough to be questioned as well. The young man's interaction with Milo Jordan did not go unnoticed. He wasn't sure what to make of Ronan though. Knowing the kid since he was a YATI made him think the young man could be trusted, but, then again, these were changing times.
No longer feeling like he could just lurk in the corner, he started making his way across the atrium. Frankie was hoping to get involved with whatever was going on and 'lend a hand,' but then everything went dark. In the darkness, the Auror removed his wand from its holster and tried to shed some light with no luck. Darkness powder, he assumed.
When they all could see normally again, he walked right up to Ronan. He too noticed that three people that were in the room moments ago were no longer there. The fact that he hadn't disappeared, especially with the man he was attempting to escort out moments ago, was enough to trust him. "I'll go to the holding cells to check on Ferguson and Saul if you want to go see if you can find where the others went." Or vice versa. It didn't matter to him. Either way, they needed to get to the bottom of this.
