Semi-open: May 05
Who: Lancelot and friends!
What: It's a birthday party! With both regular people and supernatural types. What could go wrong?
When: May 05
Where: Lancelot's flat & garden, Richmond!
Warnings: Gratuitous doggy! Probably a punch up later. Possibly some drunk kissing.
Lancelot's garden is not exactly an acre-large tented paradise.
He's not made of money.
It's big enough to just about fit the people invited across the patio and grass, with Lily variously herding them and rolling around, and he's flitting between them and the kitchen and living room and generally doing his best to butterfly around all of them making sure they're happy. The garden is relatively tidy, as tidy and well kept as a garden that suffers an enthusiastic dog can be. The hedges are neatly trimmed, the tree in one corner healthy and big enough to throw a little shade, and the one flowerbed border seems to mostly have some roses that are yet to fully bloom.
For those who he's only known since the incident last year he's given them a warning: not everyone who will be there is aware of the supernatural side of things, so try not to blurt it to people you don't know.
Despite it being his own birthday Lancelot is, of course, playing host. There's a table set up outside with finger food, salads, drinks and all sorts -- and food strategically inside for those who can't be out in the sun too. He appears to still be checking on more in the oven every so often too, but Lancelot does like to cook -- and he seems quite focused on making sure everyone has something they could eat.
Some of the drinks are alcoholic. The punch isn't that strong, but he has a few other drinks along the side for people who want them and some bottles of beer in an ice bucket. If someone decides to do a little mixing of course then it might wind up stronger.
His sound system is playing the soothing strains of Dire Straits through the place and all in all, for now at least things are going smoothly. So long as nobody says the wrong thing to the wrong person, it will probably be a nice evening. With the mixture of factions present alongside those who have no idea what a faction is, of course... that may be difficult.

Lancelot is just too nice, after all. Arthur's not sure how someone with such good intentions can be a Night Council Guardian, but at least he's got the muscle for it.

"So," he says, "what do you do, Kathryn?"
no subject
Kathryn shrugs that off, giving Arthur a bit of a thoughtful look, "so what kind of work do you do to help out a policeman?"
no subject
"Financial consulting," he says, and goes on smirking, "and yes, I know how boring that sounds."

"Sorry," she finally says, "I thought maybe you were going to say you were a detective or something."

Sometimes bankers look interesting, but that's because they sold their souls for a ridiculous income. That doesn't seem to be the case with Arthur though.

"This party's winding down, but I was gonna stop for another drink on the way home, if you'd like to join me. I'd love to hear more about what it's like to be a professional middleman."

She smiles and finishes her drink, glancing around the room for Lancelot before she turns back to Arthur, "let me just find our esteemed host to tell him I'm leaving first."

"Okay," she smiles and elects not to talk about that mess, "let's go."
