Aianon has made a plant in the open airless space above the surface of Thilanushinyel. It is a very, very large plant - some dragons will be attending the party, after all, even if Ansharil in particular is going to be assorted small things and stay on Sarion's person the bulk of the time.

The locals will be Sarion, her beloveds, their other beloved, the five conjured dragons (and their Bondmates, where applicable: Virgivere and Lissa), and Liselen - Magania has, as usual, declined, and so far no Bell party has featured Bell parents.

Amariah is bringing her boyfriend and spontaneous daughter and two of the spontaneous daughter's friends, as well as an Alethian instance of the Rupert template.

Shell Bell is bringing Pearl and Screwdriver.

Golden is bringing her usual large contingent, as usual not including her husband but including her daughter and daughter's grown fosterling (the other remaining at home) and his wolf, both mothers-in-law and one father-in-law, adopted siblings, staff members including the Joker and Nathan, and the children of the aforementioned.

Glass is bringing both wives, all three daughters, Kanim, and her cat. She invited Icarin and Valeria, but their parents are not willing to let them gallivant into other worlds unsupervised and had a scheduling conflict.

Stella's bringing a smattering of people including Alice, Anna, Sandy, Libby, Bridget, her college roommate Janine, and Lazarus.

Tab is bringing Aelise (but not Kers) and Luhan.

Etty is bringing only Nona.

Aether, likewise, brings no one but Celo.

Pattern comes with Ripper, Slipstick, Queenie, and Ghosty.

Aegis is accompanied by her four-bodied boyfriend, Merryweather, Whitlock, and Howlett.

Aurora comes with Brilliance, Lexi with her Device Persica, Agent Honey with her Device Adularia, and Beth.

Rose brings her husband and three children and her former apprentice, Luc.

Angela brings her husband, her four children, several of her friends, and some of those friends' children and grandchildren with and without wings. Keziah also brings a friend.

Juliet shows up with Soph, Minus, Red, Giles, James, Virginia, Minnie, Ike, and Val.

Cam brings Jellybean and Tilly and stops there.

And from unBelled worlds hail additional Sherlocks and Tonies, Darcy, Matilda, Pepper, and Eights.

Nathan wandered off while his mate was distracted, and is currently making a curious circuit of the party main room all by himself.

Permalink

There's a couple of familiar faces over there! One of them is slightly more familiar than the other.

Permalink

"Hi, Eights! Hi, Anna!" (Vampire speed and eyesight means he doesn't miss a beat checking the latter's nametag.)

Permalink

"Hey, Nathan," Eights says cheerfully, hugging him.

Permalink

Hug! Eights gets a friendly broken rib for her trouble. "How're you doing?"

Permalink

Awww. Nathan is such a sweetheart. She hugs him tighter, then lets go. "I'm awesome. How're you? How's the boyfriend?"

Permalink

"He's doing good, having fun reuniting with all his alts and meeting the new ones. You been up to anything neat?"

Permalink
"Not especially. Chainsaw's still cranky about losing his job, but I'm sure he'll get over himself sometime this century."

"Like sure sure?" says Anna. "I'd've thought it'd take longer."
Permalink

"I have no tears for him," snorts Nathan.

Permalink
"Nobody does," snorts Anna.

"Well, not for that," says Eights.
Permalink

"Have people been generating tears for him for other reasons?"

Permalink

"Before your time," says Eights. "He's had some pretty good reasons to be miserable. Not in the last several thousand, though."

Permalink

"Well, that's a long time."

Permalink
"To some people," says Eights.

"Me among them!" says Anna.

Eights laughs.
Permalink

"Hey, I'm centuries old, but even with my stint Downside counting I don't approach millenia."

Permalink

"You will eventually," says Eights.

Permalink

"Yep. Pretty good deal."

Permalink

"So have you heard about the dragons?" says Anna.

Permalink

"I have heard that there are dragons. One of them is an alt of the Joker."

Permalink

"One of them is an alt of us," says Anna.

Permalink

"That sounds interesting!"

Permalink
"We haven't met her yet," says Eights.

"Because I'm a coward," says Anna cheerfully. Eights gives her a fond look.
Permalink

"What's to be scared of? Even if she was going to chew you up and swallow you I wouldn't expect that to be terribly off-putting, considering."

Permalink

"Oh, y'know, what if we don't have anything to say to each other, the usual," says Anna.

Permalink

"The pair of you seem to get along just fine."
