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.

"Ha! Yeah...I know how that goes. But good on you for the monogamy."

Mike is a whole lot stronger than he looks, which isn't a commentary on Clem's size, but rather on the ease of which he picks her up for a lift.

"Thanks," she chuckles. "He's a wonderful guy." Her opinion on that does change depending on Sam's behavior toward her. She let out a 'gah' of surprise, but manages to throw in a few elegant gestures that hopefully resemble the swim.
