It had taken some convincing for Devin to agree to attend the masquerade. He'd only gone to the last one because he worked for the police in Keeliai and had been there for security purposes. Even though he is not employed by the Sentry, when Devin arrives he opts to stick to the margins. Seeing as he would have a hard time hiding who he is to anyone who knows him, Devin is wearing a black brocade coat and a simple blue mask (lower).
Once he gets himself a glass of wine, he finds a spot at the edge of the courtyard to observe the festivities rather than engage in them. As is his habit, Devin keeps an eye out for trouble, which includes occasionally steering a few drunk attendees towards a couch or an exit before they topple over bushes or break something.
B - THE REASON FOR COMING - Closed to the Fool
In order to avoid a public announcement of their relationship and because Devin hates being the focus of attention, he and the Fool chose to arrive separately. This is part of why he's been aloof at the party; when the Fool does get here, he wants to be able to disentangle himself without arousing suspicion. That, and he's not really a fan of parties.
Undoubtedly, the Fool will make an entrance few will miss, so around the time he's supposed to arrive (and accounting for the inevitability of being fashionably late), Devin drifts back towards the gateway into the Tower grounds. He has some ideas of where they can find more privacy but no pre-determined meeting spot. So long as Devin can find the Fool (which will not be hard, he is certain), they can withdraw from the main crowd without too much difficulty. The anticipation is completely unlike what he's used to during hunts, and he tries to ignore it without much success.
