bravenewworld | We turn not older with years but newer every day

Who: Pamela Isley and OPEN
What: Pamela’s 19th birthday party. Everyone is invited.
When: July 18th
Where: The Isley manor

[Although Pamela’s mother Cordelia Isley is a known socialite, the Isleys don’t often throw parties – or not large ones, anyhow. Pamela’s father Walter Isley is a high ranking Engineer and a workaholic, so most Isley parties are just small affairs organized solely by Cordelia, or sometimes by Pamela’s grandparents, Hugh and Jocasta. In the latter case, the parties tend to be for an older crowd.

In light of Pamela’s nineteenth birthday, her recent evolution, and her involvement in the diplomatic relations between Union and Caldera, her grandparents felt generous and decided to throw a large party. Pamela herself had been hoping for a small event, but her grandparents and mother were having none of it. So Pamela took it upon herself to personally improve her grandparents’ front yard and garden. There’s a long winding path leading up to the Isley home, thoroughly adorned with flowers that are in full bloom.

The invitation was extended to everyone in Union as well as their Calderan visitors. Although nowhere near the entire city is here, there’s still a fairly large turnout of people from all social stations ranging from poor to nobility.]

(ooc: Changed the date from the 19th to the 18th so that characters can attend without clashing with the upcoming game plot!)

Yeah, and it's guarded by boring people.

[Wow]

Boring people?

I know you know what I mean.

You don't have to be so blunt.

[She laughs a little.]

I'm just a lowly commoner, I don't know better.

Oh no you're not. You're fine! Besides, this isn't just a noble party, you know. I talked to Pamela, and she made sure to invite a wide variety of people.

Then why am I by the boring ones!?

Luck maybe? You know, not all nobles are boring.

Well no, you're proof of that. But all the ones at my table are.

At least next time you'll know who to avoid, right?

I'll start keeping a list.

It might get pretty long, fair warning.

It already is.

Just talk to them about delver stuff, you'll either bore them to tears or give them a heart attack. But make sure to tell me when you do it first, I want to see.

Hey my delver stuff isn't boring!

To you. Just like noble things aren't boring to other nobles.

Difference being my stuff actually isn't boring. Theirs is.

[She laughs.]

Whatever you say.

Like you don't know I'm right.

I'd rather stay a neutral party in all of this, thank you very much.

You were pretty quick to duck out of your seating arrangement.

[Busted.]

I was just following you!

Can you get away with it? You aren't an uncouth and ill-mannered commoner like me.

I know how to properly excuse myself for a bit of fresh air.

[Said somewhat smugly.]

So do you dodge these events often or is this more of a one-time thing?
