On the other end of the ballroom, converted from the Ministry lobby specifically for the event, Basil was doing much of the same. He'd been one of the first to arrive, along with his mother and father, to greet the guests as they arrived, but the Ministry New Year's ball was the event of the season, and soon people were flooding in too fast to say hello to all of them, and Basil managed to wander off from his parents, darting through the crowds of people in search of his best friend.
Basil was tugging uncomfortably at his tie, standing in line for punch, when he finally spotted her. He stepped out of line immediately, heading over towards Rose. "Hey," he said elloquently, finally loosening the tie enough to be comfortable. Basil gave Rose a look over, decided she looked nice, but didn't say anything about it. "Took long enough to get here, didn't you? I've been dying without you, love."
