(OTA! Happy holidays! If you know Fin, Willy, Phouka, or Winter, feel free to assume they gave you an invite. If not, you can say your pup got an invite through a friend of a friend, someone who knows someone, ect. It IS invite over (no gate crashing pups please, Fin's a giver and would want everyone to feel included), but the pups hosting the party are pretty active and I believe they know almost everyone in the game. And the people they don't know surely know people who do. Even if you only met them once, you got an invite somehow! This gathering post is open all week, and beyond!)

"Very good to meet you as well," he said, polite and quite formal. "Do enjoy the party."

[harrowgate]

Felix wondered over this briefly. "Your Creator assigned your preferences for you? Is that, we, exclusive to angels? I rather like to believe I've chosen for myself what I enjoy and don't. "

[jageskro]

"What kind of music?" Jag asked curiously. He might try and stop by. He was going to have to fill his evenings with things not Val for a month, anyway.

[whispersoflove]

"Of course," Anael easily agreed, with a nod. "I hope our paths meet again soon, Sunny."

[whispersoflove]

"I am," Anael assured him with a small smile, then turned to go and track down Coby.

[whispersoflove]

"We are agents of Their will," Anael tried to explain. "We serve Them, and you." He might be in the minority of angels with that last bit, once again. "We're a lot less... free, than you are." He smiled a little. "And I've never liked dancing. Nature over nurture, in this case, I believe." And his nature, he absolutely owed to God.

[harrowgate]

Whatever he may truly be, Felix had to admit that Anael stayed true to the Judeo-Christian specification for angels, even when it did not benefit him. Dedication to a faith was admirable, in some ways. "Ah, well. We might've made a fine spectacle." He cast Anael a sly, teasing glance. "Especially with the fanciful sweater."

[jadedjade]

Jade rather loved that about Dutch. There weren't many people who knew that side of him, and Dutch being so nice about it, was just lovely. "Depends on the mood, doesn't it?" He said, but quickly ran over the comment. She wasn't in on the joke. Probably because she was serious about her girlfriend. "So, where did you meet her? Club?"

[anamusebouche]

Hannibal easily spotted that lie. "You do know I'm a doctor?" He asked, by which he meant there was no point lying.

[anamusebouche]

"Hard to imagine you can be tamed," Hannibal commented to that.

[anamusebouche]

"Wouldn't quickly trade my tailor, no," Hannibal agreed. "And any woman who can combine the practical with the elegant, understands style. It's more about movement and posture, than garments."

"This crowd is drunk and wearing woolly jumpers," Hannibal retorted, though there was a hint of a smile on his lips, meaning he was joking.

[whispersoflove]

Anael laughed, eyes bright. "You love the sweater."

[hardertohide]

"She saved me from a vamper, actually," Dutch answered with a wry twist of her lips.

[prince_of_nymphs]

Fin's smile faltered again, and he glanced around to make sure no one was watching or listening before catching Hannibal's hand and guiding the man's fingers to where his pulse ought to have been.

"Miracles come with a price, Dr. Lecter."

[hardertohide]

Dutch smiled at her, then looked around for Jade and then indeed led the way to him. She smiled at him when he saw them approaching, and nodded towards Em by her side as they stopped in front of him. "As promised. Em, this is Jade, Jade, Em."

[anamusebouche]

Hannibal knew of only one creature that did not have a pulse. He was discrete, of course, about what he knew of vampires, but when a man had no pulse, he assumed he could talk of the supernatural. "Did that price involve being bitten?" He asked, curious.

[jadedjade]

By the time Dutch and her girlfriend found him, Jade was pleasantly buzzed. He had no interest in getting smashed tonight, but the carefree buzz of intoxication was allowed on a night like this.

He smiled brightly and extended a hand. "Lovely to meet you, Em."

[prince_of_nymphs]

"No. No biting," Fin assured him. "It was- Well, it was a book, actually. Drained the life right from me. The nearest thing anyone can compare it to is, well, being a ghoul. Though the man Will took me to see said that wasn't quite right either. Ghouls smell like the earth, he said, and I... Well, smell of nothing. At first he prescribed a diet to match- Turned and rotting flesh- But when one week I failed to eat that it became apparent that wasn't what my body desired. Raw meat, it seems, will do the trick. I had sushi that week, felt fine- Just a bit light headed. Red meat is better for some reason."

[anamusebouche]

A ghoul. Or something of the like. Hannibal had never heard of such creatures - but he couldn't feign surprise. Rather, it explained Finlay rather well. "There are worse diets to be put on." Rotting flesh would be the first there. "I did notice your usual scent was absent. Must be a psychological challenge; this change from human to something quite different."

[prince_of_nymphs]

"It's actually been quite exhilarating," Fin confessed, his smile returning, even brighter now than before. "My pulse is absent, but I feel very much alive. I feel reborn."

[harrowgate]

Something in Felix's eyes flared in objection to that suggestion. Accusation? It certainly needled at him. "Only through very focused discipline, I assure you," he answered, gaze steady on Hannibal, certain the man would take his meaning.

[offthebeatenpath]

"And you, Jade," Em answered with a shyer smile than his, as she shook his hand. "Happy Christmas."

[sunsongs]

As many times as Coby had had to answer that question, he had pat answers, but it could be kind of like describing himself, and worse when talking about the band as a whole. "Rock at its core," he said, "but it's more a fusion. We incorporate a lot of blues, country, funk, folk, even some traditional Irish-Scottish-whatever stuff." He chuckled. "Just don't tell Máire I described it that way. I'd wind up with her bow somewhere I don't want it."

[anamusebouche]

"You've only plucked the fruits of your cure so far," Hannibal said, pleasant and pleased for his young friend, though with an air of warning. "That is fortunate."
