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.

"Another goddess! So many, and I lucky enough to face them." He scratches his nose. "I came with a friend, but she is not my paramour. I am unwed."

...She's gonna use this to her advantage. Sorry, Harry.

"I bet you have your pick of the girls back home." She promptly bats her lashes outrageously.

Well, she does have a guy in the infirmary whom she won't cheat on, but kissing doesn't count. "Yeah well, The right amount of popular sounds perfectly right to me."
