holiday party post

Aphrodite's New York loft is done up to the nines.

The first good look as one enters is of twinkling Manhattan through the big windows, lights bright against a dark winter sky. The windows take up most of two walls; the rest of the space is largely empty, the star of the show a glowingly polished hardwood floor perfect for dancing.

There's a cluster of low-slung couches and chairs at one end of the room, velvet and leather and very inviting. They're situated by the fireplace, which lends them a cozy glow-- though it isn't cold anywhere in here, despite the windows.

Aphrodite is very proud of a few things about tonight:

1) The music, which spans a decent range of time periods and tempos, and will be playing for most of the evening.
2) The decorations, understated but quite lovely: softly glowing lights, silver and gold ribbons wound around columns and draped from the ceiling ... the occasional strategically placed bit of mistletoe.
3) Her dress.

And yes, darlings, there is a very well stocked bar and counter full of snacks.

That's what happens when you enlist the Three Graces to help you plan your shindigs.

"Oh, oka -- wait, what?!"

Pabu, picking up on Bolin's alarm, echoes that with a tiny shriek of his own, diving for Bolin's other shoulder as his owner flails his arms.

"Someone drugged you? Does anybody else know? Oh man, are you okay?"

Please don't die Harry please don't die Harry.

"Aye, well indeed, as I've said -- I spoke with the man who did so for quite some time. No hard feelings."

Not his own words, but he heard them in passing somewhere, and he likes the sound of it. No hard feelings.

"...Okay, uh."

Yeah, he guesses he missed that bit where Harry said he was all right, but only because he was stuck on the I WAS POISONED part.

Bolin's grin is a little more nervy, but he gives Harry a clap on the shoulder. "Good! But you start feeling super-sick or anything, you let me know, okay, buddy? We'll find a doctor."
