The shop's closed for Christmas, so no one will be downstairs. And Rachel's away visiting friends for the Holidays, so no chance of her sneaking in while Faith's there.

Rachel and Connor arrive at the party - not late, meaning Rachel is happy. It's the same party they go to every year, the same group of friends they rarely see, but the air is festive and light and it's a fun party. and mun is so not in the 'write a fun party scene' mood, so this is gonna be really short until something strikesMingle ( Read more... )
