There was the Viola Maria knew. The one ready to make a jab at a moment's notice. The kiss had only just broken when Viola had managed to get that out. Maria didn't expect anything else. That ability to both compliment and insult in the same breath. Maria would be lying if she said she didn't love it. It was entertaining, and kept her on her toes. So, she laughed softly, grinning ear to ear in a wolfish grin. Maria would never deny she'd had many partners over the years, nor was she ashamed about it. Viola knew Maria's reputation quite well. "Practice makes perfect." Was Maria's answer. There was that hint of pride at finally getting a kiss from Viola, but Maria managed to keep it under control as she stepped away from Viola, breaking all contact between them except the hand hold from dancing. "Come get a drink with me, Viola." Maria continued, a slight pleading in her voice. Almost like a puppy desperately wanting attention from it's master.

Practice did indeed make perfect, it seemed. Viola hadn’t had much practice at all, but it hadn’t seemed to bother Maria, and they weren’t going to go chasing after some report of their kissing prowess. The only way that could end was poorly, especially since Viola didn’t need the extra affirmation of their skills. Maria steeped away from them, which definitely helped with the – whatever it was that had caused Viola to act the way they did in the first place. They wanted to pretend it was just the Veela charm, but the truth was, they had wanted it. The Veela charm had just accelerated the inevitable, and in a way, Viola was thankful for that. It helped them not waste time trying to figure out their feelings. Maria asked for a drink, and Viola hesitated. They never hesitated, but they did now. Because they wanted a drink, but so far, the only way they had been able to get anywhere with Maria was by refusing her at every turn. Maybe they could change that, though. “I’ll get a drink with you.” Viola agreed after a moment. They tugged on Maria’s hand, determined to be the one to lead the pair of them off the floor. Even if they couldn’t be all the way in control right now, they could seize what little control they did have and use it to their advantage.

Maria couldn't help that look of absolute bliss when, after several moments of silence, Viola agreed. It took longer than Maria had wanted, but she finally got a reaction she wanted. Finally got at least a little wiggle room from Viola. Bliss soon gave way to smug pride. Did this mean that all Maria had to do was kiss Viola to get a favorable outcome? If it did, Maria didn't plan on using that often, she liked Viola's snarky pulling away with rare moments of cooperation.
Of course, it wasn't total cooperation. Viola, despite agreeing, was quickly stepping toward and tugging on her hand instead, switching roles on Maria. From being compliant to controlling. Such a wonderful game of tug-of-war this was. Maria didn't fight it, just fell into step beside Viola and letting them lead her towards the refreshments table. "Are you enjoying tonight so far?" She asked as they moved through the crowd.

Viola smiled to themself when Maria didn’t fight their leadership. Sure, they had just been dancing, but this was a far more enjoyable dance, a tango for power and possession. They got to the refreshment table and Viola took a goblet of punch, handing one to Maria as well. This rest was going to be short-lived, though, because Viola spotted someone from across the ballroom, and as much as Maria intrigued them, Roxy pulled them, too, in a totally different way. Viola didn’t want to appear too hasty, but they sipped their goblet much more quickly than they otherwise would have. “I’m having a wonderful time.” Viola said. “But I’m going to have to leave you for just a moment.” Viola handed the goblet back to one of the serving staff, pressed a quick kiss against Maria's cheek, and then dived into the crowd of people, making a beeline for Roxy. They had no idea if they would actually be gone for just a moment, but Viola also had no doubt that Maria would find someone else to dance with.
