Engagement Party

[missgdarcy]

The day has come! Georgiana flits about nervously, as this is the first gathering of any sort that she has put together all by herself. Had she done everything right? Would anyone even show up?

"S-somebody ought to," she says to herself, wringing her hands. "'Twas a-an open invitation, after all."

*smiles and offers a small, neatly-wrapped package -- inside is a nice leatherbound journal. can we tell he was having trouble thinking of a gift?* It's just a little thing, so along with that you have my promise to behave myself while I'm here. Not a single horrifying story or statement, I promise.

Darcy puts a hand on her shoulder to announce his presence, leaning around to kiss her forehead. "You've done well with the preparations, Georgiana. Mother would be proud of you." He taps her chin up higher with a finger and smiles. "I will be in my study if anyone requires my company. I trust you can host the party without your older brother spoiling your fun."

[missgdarcy]

"Oh, Fitzwilliam, honestly." Georgiana takes his hand. "Please stay."

The Warrior seems to have dressed herself for the occasion. She wears her finest furs, her face is clean, and her white-blonde hair is tied into an elegant braid. Her Sunstone has been restored to keep Odris thriving, and the Spiritshadow follows her bonded.

Milla looks about, awakwardly before spotting Georgiana and approaching. "Georgiana. I send my best wishes."

[missgdarcy]

"Miss Milla!" Before she can stop herself, Georgiana embraces her. "And Odris. How wonderful to see you!"
