Open to Quidditch Players + Guests
Of course the party had a slight theme of blue and yellow. It wasn't blatantly obvious, but as Bess shifted the United blue napkins to the perfect angle, she couldn't help but beam at how proud she was of the entire gathering. People were happy to see each other, mingling and looking relaxed; the party was exclusive to the players and their guests, so there were no cameramen or journalist---the only pictures being taken were by the players themselves, who seemed to be having a good time goofing off before work began again. Bess had really never thought about being one of those wives, that hosted parties and entertained guests, but---she had to admit that it was quite fun.

The garden looked beautiful. Bess wasn't quite sure how Drystan had so easily managed to get the space, but she wasn't going to complain. Her husband had tricks up his sleeve that she'd probably never fully figure out. Plus, she'd gotten her sister-in-law out of her flat and now Penelope was somewhere around here...hopefully talking to a handsome bloke (but just talking! Only talking!).

Bess couldn't be more pleased with herself. She let out a breath and shook her head at a few players who were on their fourth glass of champagne.

Quidditch parties seemed to attract the most obnoxious of drunken wolves. Roxanne loved her brother, but the men he mingled with were absolutely dreadful. She certainly didn't blame herself for their behavior. Wearing one of her creations should not be cause for so much lewd attention. Honestly, they deserved every hex or nasty French phrase she spat at them. They were lucky her sister wasn't there (or perhaps unlucky considering how gorgeous the other young witch was) or she might have needed to actually harm one of them. Unlike Roxanne, Sabine was too sweet to punish despicable behavior, which is why Roxanne did it for her and in a rather cutthroat manner. Call her a feminist, but Roxanne would not suffer one moment of sexism, even if it meant harming one of the league's stars.

Beneath the prickly exterior, though, Roxanne was rather lonesome. She'd yet to actually find her niche in the society of London, which is why her brother had insisted she attend this horrid party with the revolting colour scheme. One more fumbled attempt to court her and she was prepared to leave.

"Nique ta mere," Roxanne said tightly, under her breath, after taking a straight shot of firewhiskey at the bar.

Ellie had come to this silly party at her brother's behest. She'd been trying to get back on his good side, of course, because apparently there were rifts to mend after more than a year away from him. She had come up distressingly short as far as things that she could wear to the party that she felt comfortable in and still feel 'fancy' enough -- she'd settled on a mish-mash of black pieces with a band t-shirt thrown awkwardly underneath ... and a pair of black heels, of course, so that she looked a little less like she'd just crawled out of bed.

It wasn't her fault she was still adjusting to styling her new hair! She frowned, rubbing a hand over her arm and glancing up abruptly at what she assumed was a curse from the blonde woman down the bar. She managed a half-smirk.

"They leave off on the invitation that you have to constantly deflect idiot players who've had too much to drink," she said with a vaguely awkward laugh. "I think that's why the only people who come to these things are either related to players or after their money."
