Summary: New Year's Eve Party
The Story:

[ Previously in the month all residents received an invitation to a formal event: a black tie affair to ring in the New Year. The ballroom and adjacent areas are decked out for the party starting at eight o'clock sharp, meticulously planned and executed, glittering décor to match the no doubt glittering attire as music pours into the halls from the dance floor.

Bars flank each side, service for all manner of alcohol unless a minor requests something, and the primary setting stage features an enormous clock for the countdown. ]




[ Where will you be when the clock strikes midnight? ]

[As the partner of the person setting the whole thing up, Dan has of course been in the room from the moment Evelyn stepped into it. Helping to set up was a small 'price' to pay for seeing her able to relax even a slight amount, and he can be seen subtly keeping an eye on her for most of the night to make sure she isn't finding excuses to work too hard.

The former mercenary is dressed for the occasion and looking far more comfortable in the clothing he chose than he did at the party last year, when he had spent most of the night running one finger around the inside of his collar in an attempt to find some relief from the close feeling of it against his neck. This time, he looks settled, moving easily, smiling and laughing and even dancing as the mood takes him. The music is familiar to him as much as it is familiar to Evelyn - easy to find a beat and a step, easy to move to - and he doesn't seem to mind dancing with anyone who asks.

Most of the time, though, he can be found at the bar, taking in the selection of whiskey. He isn't drinking to get drunk, but rather for the enjoyment of the taste, and breaks between each double shot of alcohol with a glass of water. Later in the night, after around eleven, he stops drinking water. He can occasionally be found outside, getting some air and getting away from the noise and the crowds for a little while.]
