Maria Stark Foundation Winter Charity Ball

You are cordially invited to attend the 28th annual Maria Stark Foundation's Winter Charity event.

Four Seasons Hotel
57 East 57th Street
New York, NY 10022

Friday 21st of September
Seven O'clock pm - Midnight

Formal dress required.

Please bring a donation for Toys for Tots.

The grand ballroom of the Four Seasons Hotel on 57 East 57th street was festively decorated for the holidays. A series of lit candles on every table gave off warm light and the dulcet tones of a jazz ensemble filled the room.

People, the upper elite of New York society, Hollywood celebrities, musicians, politicians and even superheroes moved around the room. People sat at tables and talked, while some moved gracefully around the large dance floor.

Tables loaded with unwrapped and unopened toys lined one wall and at one end stood a very large decorated Christmas tree. Wrapped presents sat under the tree, but they were just empty boxes wrapped for decoration. Mistletoe hung from the ceiling near the tree and people stopped to kiss.

The air was light and the mood happy and festive.

	"Okay, yeah," Josh said, paying more attention to his walkie than the party. "You say the guy has history with ULTIMATUM? Can we actually hold him on anything? Fine, just redirect him elsewhere. Thank you." (Reply to this)(Thread)

	"You know, Agent Hoshkins, the point of these things is to forget work." Alice said with a smirk, as she sipped on a glass of champange. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Agent Dugan," he replied with a polite smile. "Maybe, but that's just what the enemy counts on. Did you see the reports from the number of people we had to stop at that last ball the Starks held? Eesh." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	girlspy 2012-12-23 05:50 pm UTC (link)
	Alice fought the urge to roll her eyes. "Relax, Agent Hoshkins. Half of the superhero community is here. We're in good hands." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hey, RAID once tried launching a tactical nuke at one of these Balls. I think a little bit of healthy paranoia is warranted in this situation," he defended. Oh what the hell. "You look nice, Agent Dugan." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	girlspy 2012-12-23 06:15 pm UTC (link)
	"You clean up pretty nice yourself, Agent Hoskins." Alice grinned, grabbing a glass of champange for Josh. "Come on. Have a glass of champange and dance with me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	battle_shield 2012-12-23 06:25 pm UTC (link)
	"Thank you." He thinks a moment before accepting the glass. "Eh, why not." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Alice raised her glass in a toast. "Atta boy," she said. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Jenny noticed the walkie, the general attitude, the watchfulness. They were all familiar signs of SHIELD to her. Maybe he could tell her if her brother was here. "Agent...?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Josh turns to the young woman. "Agent Hoskins," he introduces himself. "Can I help you, Miss..?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	tabula_rasa 2012-12-26 02:58 am UTC (link)
	"Jenny Woolverton. Nice to meet you. I wonder if you could give me some information." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	battle_shield 2012-12-26 03:03 am UTC (link)
	"Likewise," Josh said, her name starting to register. "You're with the Champions, right? What can I do for you?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	tabula_rasa 2012-12-26 03:09 am UTC (link)
	"Yes, I am." She smiled, glad this was going to be easier than she thought. "My brother, Robert Woolverton is in SHIELD. He was supposed to be here. I don't suppose you could tell me if he actually made it into the building?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	battle_shield 2012-12-26 03:14 am UTC (link)
	"Hmm, I'm one of the few agents on duty right now, though there are a couple here for the party. If he's here he didn't check in with me," Josh informed. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	tabula_rasa 2012-12-26 03:26 am UTC (link)
	"He's supposed to be my date, not working, but it's possible he was called away. It happens." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	battle_shield 2012-12-26 03:29 am UTC (link)
	"I hear that. Breaks are few and far between. What division does your brother work in? Maybe it might give me an idea," Josh offered. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	tabula_rasa 2012-12-26 03:33 am UTC (link)
	She laughed. "Would you believe he tells me I'm not cleared for that information? He was the SHIELD liaison to Scotland Yard when we lived in London, but now all I know is that he's based in New York and often out of contact." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	battle_shield 2012-12-26 03:36 am UTC (link)
	Josh gives a chuckle of understanding. "Sadly yeah, I believe it. Still, there are good reasons why we can't tell family certain things." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	tabula_rasa 2012-12-26 03:47 am UTC (link)
	"I understand it, which is why I'm not all that upset about getting stood up. If I find out he's ditching me for any other reason, I might have to visit the Wrath of Little Sister on him." Which wasn't a small thing considering who she was. "Thanks for listening, Agent Hoskins. I appreciate your time." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	battle_shield 2012-12-26 03:51 am UTC (link)
	He laughs a little at that. Being an only child he never really had to worry about sibling anger. "No trouble at all, Miss Woolverton. Good luck, I hope you find him." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	tabula_rasa 2012-12-26 04:00 am UTC (link)
	"Please, call me Jenny." She lifted her glass to salute him and wandered off into the crowd. (Reply to this)(Parent)
