Did William even own a tux? That was beside the point.
Oliver gave his friend a few slaps on the back before pulling back and grinning at Willy.
"Dude! Aren't you old enough to dress yourself by now?" Or at the very least know what outfit is required for certain events.
"But you look good."
Don't ever let it be said that he wasn't a very good friend.
Giving his friend a light punch in the arm, he then looked around the immediate vicinity of where they were standing.
"Flying solo tonight mate?"
Or maybe not....

Although, she noticed quite a lot of people who had come here with dates... and she had not. Was she supposed to have? Maybe she would find William or Kaden and stick with one of them. Probably not Kaden. Or she could make new friends, she supposed.
But not yet, she decided just as her eyes landed on William from a distance. He looked rather nice in a suit and tie... Just an observation. January was just walking over when she heard someone else shout his name rather loudly. And then she watched as the taller one disregarded the Minister and attacked the other with a hug. Welp... she would wait to say hello, then.
Instead, she turned to the Minister and extended her hand, smiling. "Mister Kettleburn, it's a pleasure to meet you. I'm January Pennifold, from Magical Creatures." And she hadn't realized until then just how exciting this was, meeting him. Heh. Cool.
A young woman approached their little circle and he raised his eyebrows as she introduced herself to the Minister. January? That was quite an unusual name.
Oliver glanced back at his friend.
"Is she with you?" Had his friend finally found someone other than Cece Tillstorm?
Merlin, he hoped so.
