[color=f6989d][b][centre][h2]Talie "Friendly local rock nerd"[/h2][/centre][/b][/color] [b]Location[/b] Funnel cake [b]Mood[/b] Too many to count … Talie spotted dark hair and saw a familiar face in the crowd, one of a rare few seeing Jewel take to stage and declare the event's opening and Manny vanished away. Though she had a strange thought that something was up, no idea why just something… But what could she do, Reya… what would she like and what would she enjoy? She loved funnel cake and sweet things, ice cream and such. Fruity. Yes, fruity. Talie ordered a fruity cocktail and topped up her own drink before she walked over. [color=f6989d]"Anything fruity, sweet and colourful, plus a tip up on my long island"[/color] Talie spoke confidently, handing them a decent tip. Keeping people who gossiped happy was a good thing. [color=f6989d]"Thanks, keep the change"[/color] she spoke to a somewhat flirting bartender, she really did not mind, it was all part of the territory. Tips, flirting, all that jazz and so. "Il make sure you get good drinks rock boss" the Bartender spoke, he recognised her from the local paper, her name was… he did not want to mangle it but remembered she was heading up the local rock docs team. He was not sure what they did but must be important enough to send a doctor. [color=f6989d]"That's a new one,"[/color] Talie laughed as she walked over to Reya, balancing the two drinks with heels clicking on the ground before the stage. However Chaos would intervene, Chaos always found a way to have fun with her life. The stage was set and people were milling about and gathering for the auction as a whole. The tables were set up, little lights and such were all twinkling in the growing darkness. It was all very cute and had a certain small town style about it. The growing cooler air was nice after the long hot day and the long island would give her a happy buzz. Walking over carefully Talie noticed movement on the stage but did not pay too much attention to it. That would pay her trouble later bouncing along to a song in her head. [color=f6989d]"Hey watch"[/color] Talie felt herself tripping slightly before someone else stopped her fall before anything severe could happen to her or the drinks. "Kurva" swearing as she managed to work out her situation. Taking a slow breath Talie looked around to see a taller man, was there something in the water making the men all big, tall and rather handsome? [color=f6989d]"Tomasz…"[/color] Talie thought aloud as he jumped down off the stage.. He seemed more interesting than just Thomas or Tommy deserved. Plus the Polish rolled off her tongue in a nice way. Something was odd, people tend to not jump off stages. She probably should pay attention. [color=f6989d]"Sorry, Thank You for saving me. I'm Talie, and I am more coordinated normally."[/color] She introduced herself apologising, he was taller, dark haired. She was in heels and felt short next to him. Seeing Reya who was now talking to another woman. They seemed to know each other, would she be interrupting but she already had two cocktails. Her ankle was also voicing its displeasure if Talie did not sit down for a few minutes. Just her luck! Reyas friend looks rather well put together, like Reya did. She had no trouble imagining they both had interesting times when the boys stopped being idiots. Well…less of idiots. There was no choice really, she could always go back and talk to someone else if it was awkward. [color=f6989d]"Reya, umm sorry, I brought you a drink to make up for … well the disaster"[/color]. Talie spoke slightly embarrassed remembering, spotting her with a shorter woman with rather nice waves of dark hair dressed again more casually than Talie… She really misread the evening. [color=f6989d]"I really overdid it didn't, i"[/color] she spoke as she clicked a few metres in heels, a royal blue date dress and her good cream coat. [color=f6989d]"Mind if I sit somewhere, my ankle does not appreciate me right now unless I'm interrupting something. I can find somewhere else."[/color] Talie spoke hopefully. Talie was flustered, she planned to be nice, give a drink. Well it was a failure. The auctions would be interesting though. Talie was about as smooth as sandpaper right now, she really should have got used to wearing the shoes before leaving the house. That was her habit…and oh.she thought she was better than her habit.
