Richard heard a familiar voice from behind him and looked to see who it was, and it was none other than Rayne, the person who brought him here in the first place. He smiled brightly at him and after the brief hug they shared Richard went on to answer the question asked of him. "Well I've been doing well today, I just got here in that junker over there." He points to his car that still was sitting in front of the house. "It's not much but it gets the job done. Also I just want to thank you so much for the invitation, without it I would have been cooped up at home having to talk with people I haven't talked to since last summer, and there's a reason I haven't talked to them since last summer." He said with a goofy smile as he realized another yellow cab pulling up.

The woman who walked towards them seemed familiar to Richard, though he couldn't quite put his finger on why she thought she was. However he saw a cat and that made his attention shift, cats were his favourite animal and the addition of one to this specific setting could make the summer even better than he had previously thought it out to be. The woman introduced herself as Calliope, Richard thought it was a nice sounding name, had a certain regal quality to it. "I'm Richard, but most people just call me Rich." He said with a smile and a nod in her direction before he heard the door open.

At first Richard assumed that this must have been another guest that had gotten there before everyone else, but as it turned out this was actually the Diana from the email. He was different than expected, for one thing his gender was different than originally thought, but Richard just thought of it as some Evil Dead thing where the guy has a typical girl name but probably goes by some short-form in order to deal with people thinking weirdly of them. Richard decided not to let it be known that he thought the host was of a different gender than originally thought, that's probably not good for first impressions on people. "Rich Masters here, one of Rayne's many plus ones." He said after Diana introduced himself to the small crowd outside.

Soon came another yellow cab, this one carrying a really built guy. Richard couldn't help but feel a little inadequate when he saw this guy, he was so fit he had to be some kind of football player or weightlifter or like a soldier or something. The man introduced himself as P-J, yet another one of Rayne's guests. Then was another really built guy, this one named Tyson who also came in a yellow cab and who also seemed to Rayne very well. Richard could only think of how many people Rayne must know, he saw the email addresses attached to the invitation but he didn't expect all these people to know him as well as they all seem to.

As he pondered yet another yellow cab dropped someone off. This made Richard feel like he didn't make the best choice taking his own car, was it just that the train was sponsored or was there some other reason everyone decided to take that. He dropped the idea, taking notice of the new person that had just arrived, who was yet another person that Rayne knew really well. However the new person also seemed to know Calliope, which was a bit of a welcome change. This did however make Richard realize that he knew basically no one here other than the on that had invited him, all the more reason why this is a great getaway for him. He once again decided to introduce himself to the people that had shown up since his last introduction. "Hey, in case I didn't already tell you or whatever, I'm Rich." He said with a grin.
