But I don't feel like dancing.
A LOHN event, full of music, food, and wholesome, smiling faces. Minnie hated them so, so much. She longed to run back to Julian and watch as he brought Zothelle's little empire crashing down.

But for now, she watched, and smiled, and charmed, and lightly flirted, and filed away every single piece of information she heard.

	"Oh, I agree completely. Conversation, a few good drinks, some good food, the usual." A.C. says. "That's a great dress." A.C. says. It would look better on my floor. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Thank you." She smooths out the area of the dress across her thigh, knowing exactly what she's doing. It's like the tango, she tells herself. It works at its absolute best when you can channel genuine strong feelings to give it all an edge...but they don't have to be positive feelings. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"So, watch anything interesting on TV lately?" he asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Something interesting, yes, but unfortunately, not anything good. I must assume all the quality programming happens when I'm out getting things done, and I come home to reality television." A sour face as she slides more to the edge of her chair and, sighing, sets a hand on his shoulder. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Reality TV is a sham, Minerva. Can I call you Minerva? But yeah, it's crap. I mean, you've got people on the tube serving as bad role models to kids, or kids that don't know any better bein' used by a guy with no morals to make himself rich." A.C. says. "I just wish people would see through the crap for once and say enough is enough." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Of course you may, A.C.. And it certainly would be nice. But common sense is no loner common, it seems. It's an ugly world now, and ... well, we each must do what we must." A thin smile. "And those of us with some sense must save our bad examples for less all-ages environments," she says softly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Tina was glad she was a practiced hand at the mind reading/straight face routine. The inner dialogue of the loser Minnie was working was almost hilarious with patheticness. With a very slight smile Tina turned her attentions and started checking the room out, mingling as it were, waiting to see what she could glean. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	A.C. nods at Minnie in agreement. "Exactly what I was thinking." I wonder if she's wearing underwear. I hope the boss man doesn't mind me nailing the new recruit. Oh, need to make sure I get down to the docks tonight, too. Most of the people in the room are enjoying the night and waiting to get a glimpse of the Guest of Honor and Mr. Zothelle.

	That wish is granted when Senator Jared Gavin Stone III enters the room with Aaron and Patty Zothelle not far behind him. He's greeted with warm applause to which he waves at the crowd and smiles brightly. He mouths the words "Thank you" to all in attendance. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Minnie stands as the top billing enters, staying a little brushed against A.C. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Tina looks up and applauds just like everyone else there. This was, in fact, a surprise to her. It took this whole thing to a completely different level. She started paying even closer attention than before and worked on encouraging herself into a position where she could meet Zothelle and the Senator herself. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	A.C. is enjoying the closeness and sits with Minnie, clapping for the Senator. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Aaron Zothelle steps back, letting Senator Stone have his moment. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Patty does the same. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Senator Stone sits down at a particular table, which happens to be the one that Tina is sitting at smiles to the young woman in particular, while still waving to the people. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	After the Senator settles down a bit, Tina smiles and speaks to him. "Well. How did I get so lucky as to share a table with you, Senator?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm not sure, but I hope my luck holds. Jared Stone III." he says, extending a hand. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Christina Gotham," she said, a smile on her face as she met his hand with hers. Talking to the Senator. Wish me luck. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Good luck. Be careful, Minnie tells her as she stands closer with A.C., asking if he lives near here. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jared's eyes brighten and he smiles as Tina speaks. "Christina Gotham? Wait, you wouldn't happen to be Bruce's daughter, would you?" he asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah, I've got a place a few blocks from here. You wanna blow to this taco stand?" he asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The mention of her father's name caught Tina off guard, though her face really only reflected a slightly raised brow. She'd used Gotham instead of Frost because she thought it'd be less known somehow. "Yes, Bruce Gotham is my father. You know my dad?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Not quite yet; feel like I should hang around a bit longer if I really want to get a chance to do my part around here. But..." She tugs at his coat just a little as she tiptoes to reach closer to his ear. "I'd really like to go to your place shortly," she whispers with a touch of eager need. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Okay, no problem. We'll talk to a few more VIP's and then we'll go." he says (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Bruce is my accountant. He talks about his daughter all the time and we've known each other for years." Jared says. "How's your night going?" he asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
