itp: New Year's Eve Party!

[x_autnihil]

*There are some large white tents set up tonight, brightly lit by candles and filled with the sound of festive music. They are also filled with food and drink, if music isn't your thing. Platters of seafood and candied fruit and pastries, bottles of wine and champagne and non-alcoholic beverages for those of you who are under age. (Chances are good

[it's odd, he's not bad when he dresses well]

[x_autnihil]

Hah, I knew you could polish yourself up.

[sharpasafawkes]

Actually, camp did this to me.

[x_autnihil]

Well, that's a little disappointing. *walking over to get food and drink anyway*

[Wearing men's clothes, for once! A double-breasted pinstriped vest, a white sleeveless shirt with cravat, and tight slacks. ...He's a little disappointed, because he feels he looks best in dresses, but here we are.]

--Mister Hastings! What a pleasure.

[x_autnihil]

ZEX. It is good to see you again.

[takeme2urpants]

I feel the same for you. Are you enjoying yourself?

[x_autnihil]

Busy, but yes. Would you care for a drink?

[takeme2urpants]

In fact, I would. ♥

[x_autnihil]

*gestures for him to come with him, leading the way* What would you care for?

[takeme2urpants]

What have you been having, I wonder?

[x_autnihil]

I have not been drinking much. I've been rather busy. There is a merlot I can recommend, however, if you would be interested.

[takeme2urpants]

That sounds lovely.

Is there anything with which I could help?

[x_autnihil]

It is all right--I've just been able to hire someone for the evening, so things should be going smoothly. *opening a bottle, getting a glass* What kinds of drinks are popular where you are from?

[takeme2urpants]

Viscous ones, usually--the sort of thing you could ingest under water without trouble. We do not drink much alcohol, as we dehydrate easily, but one glass is hardly any trouble.

*handing it over* Your world must be quite different. The more I hear about it the more fascinating it sounds. You are able to live both on land and under water, then?
