[Do you know what makes a party even more difficult when you are already a person not really predisposed towards making idle conversation? Not really knowing anybody there. Still, Nathaniel has tied his hair back and chosen a simple and surprisingly 'modern' mode of attire that he finds himself feeling strangely comfortable in.
The first thing he does is have a drink. It eases away the edges of the tension he can't shake and makes it easier to filter out the faces he recognises from those he does not. Adventuring with the drinks as well as the situation, the one he has in his hand is very blue, and smells faintly of almonds. Whatever it is, he's enjoying it.
Being unfamiliar with the theme of the festivities doesn't mean he won't be able to 'get into' them. The alcohol will certainly help, but Nathaniel is a wallflower to a painful degree. A nudge would be more than welcome.]
