[Punctuality in planning is important: the ballroom itself will only be ready for guests at exactly 8 o'clock, bedecked in glittering golds and the red-green of Christmas' vestiges, still clinging to the old year. Dining tables surround a central dance floor, bars and buffets dot the edges of the room and both holly and mistletoe are expressed liberally through the interior.

Mingle, dance, eat and be merry! The New Year will come in at midnight - the band will play and the drinks will flow for long after.]

Comments

It would be as difficult for me to imagine the rest of my life being limited to six decades as it is for a mortal to conceive of a life spanning centuries.

[Though, he can take the point. That isn't really it though, is it. In those sixty years, a mortal may have many aspirations and then slowly abandon each one as life's inevitabilities take hold.

A sad way to live, he sometimes things, but he admires their perseverance.]

But... hm. I suppose that I would like to be remembered in some way, should it come to that.

[stefanged]

That's pretty much all it boils down to. Their lives aren't long, so they want to build something that'll last long after they're gone. As like... a legacy.

[He had been a foolish mortal once, he knows. He may not remember it, but he remembers reading of his hopes and dreams for that future. The old Stefan had wanted to heal people, and to make his world a far better place than when he had arrived in it.

As a vampire, he can't physically heal, but he sure could look into other aspects of it.]

It may not be much of an impact, but it's still theirs.
