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.]

Cesare smiles and laughs slightly, looking at the floor for a second when Caroline speaks, obviously needing to fill the silence.

"Since it was built in the 1800s. I'm not sure precisely when, though it says on the front door, if you ever need to check."

The doors open and Cesare leads her through to a suite where he immediately pulls off his jacket and drapes it over the sofa before turning to her.

"I'll confess: I don't know precisely what you heard, but I think it may be misleading. I'm not quite the type to play too many games." He's more of a cut to the chase kind of guy. After all, why else would the two of them be in this room together?

Caroline nods. She's getting a bit better at guessing vampire ages, maybe. Or at any rate, she's not surprised that he has at least a few centuries on her - she suspects it might be more than a few.

Her heart is still racing when they reach the room. "I honestly didn't hear that much," she admits. "Just enough to make me curious."
