A "Harmonious" Evening at the MCSS Fundraiser?

Arriving fashionably late to the fundraiser, Harmonia descended from the limo in a pale grey damask ballgown that was very reminiscent of the time period in question and made her way through the church entrance, smirking at the irony of a vampire ball being held on once sacred ground.

Seeing a waiter almost as soon as she entered, Harmonia helped herself to a glass of chilled champagne and made her way into the ballroom, marvelling at how well everything had been done. Her trained eye, always looking for flaws or something that could have been designed better, found nothing really out of place. Whoever had designed the affair obviously knew quite a bit about Russian history and that time period in particular.

Mingling among those already in the ballroom, Harmonia wondered if Hesiod had decided to come or not. She wouldn't be surprised if her brother had, she mused to herself as she scanned the busy room looking for his pink hair and flamboyant attitude.

Harmonia turned when she heard a man's voice next to her. She had not been paying too much attention to the people around her, quite frankly, because she was not interested in the guests at present, only finding her brother. She had a few choice words about his last text, and she had been relishing getting back at him. However, eyeing the man, vampire actually, before her, who was almost her same height, piqued her interest somewhat and diverted her attention for the moment from the task at hand.

"Harmonia Proxentias," she replied automatically as she looked him over, quite obvious in what she was doing. "And I just arrived a few minutes ago," she added as she nodded in greeting to an older gentleman who went by.

"But so far, the event looks like it might have potential," she admitted with a grin as looked Leandro over once again, not aware the vampire could not really see her.

Harmonia grinned coquettishly at Leandro when he made his statement and then lightly shrugged her bare shoulders as she took a sip of her drink, "I am all about having a good time, wherever I go and whatever I do. In fact, in my long-lived experience, eternity is a very long time to be sitting at home alone, knitting and bored," she told the younger vampire very matter-of-factly.

"Now, my twin brother, Hesiod, he is your classic stick in the mud and really does not know how to have a good time," she added with a tiny sarcastic chuckle, and for no other reason than she enjoyed poking fun and talking shit about her twin to others.

"His idea of a "spark" to lighten things up at a party, would probably be to pull out and light a match or something dreadfully boring like that," Harmonia drawled, purposefully exaggerating her bother's ineptitude.

"Fun is such a relative term," Harmonia stated as she looked around the room as they talked. "Knitting by the fire or doing those puzzly things, jiggy saws, or something ridiculous like that," she said waving off the correct term as something inconsequential, " is considered 'fun' by many. Though for the life of me I can't see why..." she admitted with an exasperated sigh.

"But yes, what do I do for fun?" Harmonia remarked with a smile as she turned the topic back on subject, "Well parties are a good start, so are casinos and games of chance, maybe fast cars, house hunting, seeing how other people live," she mused as she watched a handsome young man walk by and smiled appreciatively.

"How about you? What do you do for fun?" she enquired with a grin.

Harmonia looked squarely at Leandro when he asked her to dance and took another sip of her drink. "That actually sounds like an excellent idea," she told him as she hurriedly finished her drink and placed it on the tray of a passing waiter.

Taking his proffered hand she let him lead her out to the dance floor, "It's a delight to meet people who actually like to dance," she told him as she turned to him in a sweeping motion and proceeded to place her hands at ten and twelve.
