Islington Nest Christmas Party, Dec 17 [Open to all Nest members and their guests]

[vampire_barbie_girl]

Caroline has worked hard to put together the evening's event, which is not only a Christmas party but also hopefully a chance for the Nest to celebrate its new leadership. The room at the Angelo has been decorated with a winter wonderland theme which, while not exactly original, is quite lovely.

A string quartet is playing a selection of Christmas and other classical music. Any attempts to feed on the musicians will result in the perpetrator getting thrown out the party, or worse. But feeding on any of the hired help or performers should be unnecessary, since several varieties of "blood punch" are available to drink. There is also food and other drinks available for non-vampire guests and anyone else who wishes to partake.

There is a strict black tie only dress code and Caroline will tell anyone who is under-dressed to go home and change.



[The event is happening on Dec 17th but I wanted to get it up early so everyone had time to do get involved if they so desired.]

Caroline is well aware that he isn't joking. She does have eyes, after all. "Okay, I'm going to hold you to that one. No backing out, even if we have to shop all night."

She chuckles at the image. "I wish I could have seen that."

"Brilliant. I'm sure Nancy will thank you." She'd never been critical of his style, but she had such a lovely sense of fashion, and he...didn't. Anything that could help level things between them when the age gap was already looming would be much appreciated.

"Plan another one of these shindigs 'n you might just get your wish." Personally, Cooper didn't mind being surrounded by the eternal beauty of a bunch of vampires. Just because he was young in body didn't mean that he was blind. He was quite appreciative.

Caroline grins. "I think I'm already planning a couple of things, though nothing definite yet." She pauses, thinking. "Oh, except for one thing. I hear you're going to be in need of company Christmas morning. I'm in the same situation and so's Evie, so I was thinking maybe we could make a morning of it? Eat some good food, watch Die Hard for reasons that are beyond me, and stuff like that? Hopefully at your place?" She'd only been there to visit Nancy a few times but she was already in love with the house and its amenities.

"Sounds like a good plan right down to the ground." Cooper was always a little gloomy around the holidays, remembering the past when he'd been human with a family that loved him. Pretty soon Caroline would know what that was like, he thought with a pang of sadness. "Just so long as you keep the place clean." The place was huge and Cooper didn't trust a maid not to snoop. He was forced to be the cleanest seventeen year old one would ever find in Londn.
