Winsol! (Open Post)

[ebonyjaenelle72]

The decorations are still up, and in a large open room somewhere in the Mansion, Jaenelle's set up a party. It's a curious melding of Christmas (or what she knows of it) and Winsol, with a tree in one corner, presents stacked underneath. The music playing, however, is pure Blood, food is laid out, and the cup is somewhere for all involved to share

There's not a bird lurking out the window.

It's a bear. Probably purposely, because he's hoping it will amuse the Blood.

Merlin sure would love to join in the fun - he's just not sure he's welcome.

[eyrienprince]

Lucivar knows that psychic scent. And while it's not precisely a welcome, the window is open, oddly for the weather, and while Lucivar at least is certainly still ticked off at him, he's welcome to come in. It's Winsol. And there are other Blood who aren't so touchy.

[myrddin_wyllt]

Well then. Merlin changes to a bird, flies in, and shifts back to human form once inside, to close the window.

He's letting people come to him, though.

Here, Merlin, have an adorable little girl who comes over and beams up at you.

"Happy Winsol."

Phedre comes. She saw the invitations, and this is probably the closest to Longest Night she's getting, so she is going to come around and smile at people. She tried to get Fitz to tag along - it's up to his typist to tell us if she succeeded, or not.

[chivsbastard]

Fitz did, though a bit reluctantly - he's there with Phedre, looking tense and a bit foreboding, though better than he has been, recovering somewhat from his mood. And distinctly wary of all the people around everywhere, whut.

[phedre_25]

"I am glad that you would come with me, love," she tells him, sweet, gently, gleeful.

"I hope you can meet my friend Jaenelle. She is a wonderful person."

[chivsbastard]

He kind of smiles, a little. "Maybe." He doesn't know about meeting new people, but... "And of course I would come." You asked. I couldn't say no.

And here's Anita. She's not sure what she's doing here - but hey. It's Winsol, and she has family to go hug.

So here she is. Still shy. Still quiet. Still unaware that Locke has returned, and so still sad.

[ebonyjaenelle72]

Hugged by a witch! Jaenelle tries to capture Anita's hand and drags her inside. "Anita, there you are, I was hoping you'd come!"

[tomboy_22]

She is getting dragged, her demeanor still quiet and sober. "Thank you, Jaenelle. Happy Winsol." She tries to smile. It doesn't work very well.

[ebonyjaenelle72]

A tight hug. "You're welcome." Determinedly happy, dammit. "Want some ice cream?"

[arid_white_lady]

T: Don't ask. I have loud elves. Sorry.

Aredhel comes - to see Lucivar, probably, because she is worried, and perhaps to talk to Jaenelle as well.

She did try to get Cleeg to come along. He needs happy. She wants to give him what happy she can.

[eyrienprince]

Lucivar is there, certainly, probably sitting somewhere talking to Karla, but he gets up when he sees her, and smiles a bit. "Happy Winsol."

[arid_white_lady]

"You too, Lucivar." She smiles back, a bit, takes a step in his direction. "It's been a while. Not since..." She trails off.

[eyrienprince]

"It has." Quietly. He remembers. And isn't going to ask, not sure if he should. He hasn't heard anything good.

[elven_irs]

Caranthir did not want out. Irisse made him. He and Fingon have that in common - slaves to the little cousin's desires.

So he's there.

And he's trying to escape Irisse's gaze so he can go and brood somewhere quiet.

[ebonyjaenelle72]

Not on this witch's watch. Jaenelle is going to come and slip her arm in his, typist willing, and give him one of those Jaenelle smiles. "Let's go for a walk."

[elven_irs]

Hard to resist Jaenelle. He almost tries to shake her off, but doesn't.

"As you wish, Lady." He inclines his head.

[ebonyjaenelle72]

She gives him a bit more of a smile and is going to lead him out of the room, actually. Outside, maybe, though keeping a little bubble of warmth around them.
