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.

Elspeth is meandering towards the golden bubbly, which, along with the blue and other less popular synthetics, is labeled "For Vampire Consumption Only".

"Oh. I suppose," says Elspeth. "Does it even smell appetizing to you?"

He sniffs. "Not espcially. Sort of like... salted tinfoil. Some value may be present but it would be a bad idea to give it a bite."
Elspeth Annarose Cullen

"Salted tinfoil! Of all things." She pours herself a shot of bubbly and adds three drops of blue; it turns a sea-green. "Well, I could change the sign anyway, in case one of you decides to give it a try regardless."
Sherlock Holmes

"Well, if you're going to change the sign, I may as well try it first. Just so we know whether or not it is genuinely toxic."
Elspeth Annarose Cullen

"If you like." She downs her shot and pours him one.
Sherlock Holmes

He tries it.
"Not pleasant, but not vile," is his conclusion. "I could see it as an acquired taste but I have no urge to acquire it. I also don't appear to be keeling over."

"Well, if you do, update the sign when you're up again."
"Is someone doing sanguinary experiments?" asks Lily. "Hello, Princess. Hello - Plus, nice to meet you."
Sherlock Holmes

"The experiment has just concluded," says Plus, displaying his empty glass. "Your synthetics are not to my taste, and I don't think they're very nourishing, but if I'm dying of them I'm doing it very slowly."
"I have here," says Lily, "a gallon of Materian nymph blood, which both I and the Imperial Minister of Temporal Affairs find delectable, want a sample?"
Sherlock Holmes
dearsweetsoulful
"Why not." He peers into his glass and then spends a triangle to clean it.
Lily pours him a little nymph blood.
Sherlock Holmes

Plus drinks it.
He starts giggling. Mid-giggle, he dissolves into a cloud of dust, which is replaced by the illusory flames of torching, which are replaced in turn by a still-giggling Plus.

"Well, that's got to be the most interesting reaction I've ever had from giving somebody a beverage," says Lily. "What happened?"
Sherlock Holmes

"Apparently," he says, vanishing the dropped glass with a square, "in my world's terms Materian nymph blood is a kind of holy water. To which, as you have just observed, we vampires are violently allergic. Gives us nasty burns when we touch it. I've never drunk the stuff before, but I'm not surprised it turned out to be fatal."
"How peculiar. Tastes like health food to me," says Lily.
Sherlock Holmes

"It smells perfectly appetizing, in a bizarrely plantlike sort of way. But I don't think I'll be having any more."
"It is pretty bizarrely plantlike, isn't it? And I don't blame you." She caps the bottle. "I'll save it for the Aurumites. I'm going to throw a tasting."
Sherlock Holmes

"Best of luck."
"Thanks!" And off goes Lily.
Sherlock Holmes

"Well, that was informative."

"Yes, quite."
