"Actually, there is one now. Shall we?" he questioned, offering an arm for her to take before leading them both over. "Good evening," he greeted to the prosecutor and a woman he placed as ministry but had never met. Simon would wait until he was acknowledge before doing introductions, letting the older man make the decision if he wanted to talk.[/COLOR] Quote:

He felt the need to say that even if it was a wig. There was a smirk on his face, though. "Apology accepted, beautiful maiden." ??? WHO was she supposed to be? A dazzling archer? It worked.
... "Simon!" Vic called out, pleased to see one of his colleagues. Young, wild, and very untamed colleagues (i.e. Emily's pets people). "Evening to you, too." He shook the young man's hand, putting all the strength a regal Knight should have, but that shouldn't be a problem with an Auror, right? Right. "Courting my--" Pftpfffftpfffft hair in his mouth. "Girlfriend, the beautiful January Pennifold." He added, using his low-tone voice and putting a hand on Jan's hair shoulder. So knight-y of him. Quote:

Listening to the first half of introductions, he nodded and smiled politely at the woman. "A pleasure to meet you, Miss Pennifold," he said, using the more formal choice of address. That is until she chose to give him permission to use the familiar or not.
Of course Vic's choice of words had added to the awkward unfamiliarity he had with sharing his date with others. With his only other real relationship, Kyle and he had kept everything on the down-low so many weren't even aware of it. "And this is my...lovely girlfriend, Angelina Eboué." Now for the other side of things, introducing the one person who hadn't been already, at least to his companion. "Angelina, this is Vic Bones, head prosecutor." Quote:
Originally Posted by BanaBatGirl William was here, wandering around with his date somewhere nearby. This was a pretty cool location for a Ministry get-together, in his opinion. It certainly beat the big boring ball thing they usually did. Was that a photo booth he'd seen over yonder?! He was definitely going to drag a few people into that later...
First, though, food was calling his name. William adjusted his tie and made a beeline for the banquet tables and seating. He thought he spotted a flash of red hair from across the hall and stuck his arm up in the air, waving at JanJan and her boyfran. Oooh, he needed to formally meet this guy. Also he needed to find Alysson, because they had gone separate ways once they'd gotten in the museum...
FOOD FIRST THOUGH. Holy smokes, was that a chocolate fountain?! Willy was not going to be able to fit all these options on one plate. He settled for piling on meaty entrees and side-dishes in round one, then slowly made his way through the crowd to find a table near the people he knew. The people being Jan and Vic, whom he'd heard LOADS about. Yes. And who were they talking to? Willy popped up on the fringes of their group in the middle of introductions and grinned around at them all, plate in hand.
"Hello!" Don't mind him, just standing here and chomping on an asparagus.
Oh, meeting new people. That was always fun. January smiled at the younger man from Vic's department. He had seen him roaming around, but they had never officially met before. "Pleasure to meet you as well, Sir Simon," she said with a grin and a curtsy, keeping herself in character of a... err... polite lady-archer of very old times. Yes. There wasn't an official title of what she was tonight. "And pleasure to meet you as well, Lady Angeline." Another curtsy for her. Merlin, this was going to get tiring.
January thought about starting a conversation with them, but she was soon distracted by a familiar face that was closer to the buffet table. It was WILLY! Jan stuck her arm in the air and waved back at him giddily, probably wiggling Vic around because her arm was still linked with his. Hehe. Ohhh and look, he was coming over! January beamed at him, trying not to be impolite to the others.
Wait. "You look very handsome," she told her friend. "Where's your costume?" Hmmmm? He was dressed up as a modern day wizard. Boring.
Perhaps introductions were in order. Vic and Willy had heard all about each other from January, but she was pretty sure they hadn't actually met before. "Vic, this is William," she said, gesturing to the asparagus-chomping man next to him. "And William, this is Vic. My boyfriend." But he knew that already. "Oh, and this is Simon and Angelina," January added, gesturing to the couple across from them. She didn't even know them, but she knew their names, so... There you go.
Oh, she had broken character now. Whoops. No curtsy for Willy. |
