[awww yeah thursday night bar outting. and she looks classy as hell with that martini in hand.]
Y'know, it's funny how long money can last when you set your mind to it, but I can't start relying on these boys to keep buying me drinks every night. [she laughs, and she gives the old man sitting next to her a wink as she raises her martini glass.]

[ Tonks shrugs her shoulders. ]
How does a date auction work?

[she laughs, and the old man next to her says something off-camera that she waves away, whacking him in a friendly manner on the shoulder.]
It's a lot funner than it probably sounds. A ball will definitely be fun though. Exactly what this city needs. Folks in fancy dresses and suits after a shitty summer.
