He stood nearby. Servant- "There are parties, usually with more attendees, more glamour... This is a small party, and the game is unusual. Not something that normally happens. I really can't think of anything else to say about that. Do you need help getting back?

'Holy shit. I had better tell Eli..' "No, I think I can find my way back.. One more thing, though.." She wrapped her finger in a band aid and poked her head out of the bathroom. In her hand was her cigarette. She didn't even ask - It was obvious she needed a light.

Servant- "But of course..." Because servants are all supposed to talk like that.

"Thanks." Aaaaand with her newfound information, she made her way back to the table.

Quinn stood, tapping his fingers idly on the bottom of the glass that Leo had given him before swanning off to Santi and Marchese's table. He didn't feel like drinking at the moment, rather content to keep his wits about him. He waited to see what she and Eli had discovered from their little interlude with the strange pair.

Instead of following Eli to Auberon's table, Leo came this way. Her face was blank, but the way she walked suggested uneasiness, along with a hand on the back of her head and her gaze low. She must've smoked her other half of her cigarette on her way over."Nebulae form from the remnants of dead stars.." ..Could vaguely be heard as she stepped up to her friend. "Oh, sup. You're still here. I figured you would have moved onto another table by now.." She noticed the glass in his hands, "Not thirsty?"

He noticed her muttering and felt a small concerned furrow appear between his brows."I needed a breather before braving THAT table..." He jerked his chin a bit to indicate Dragomir's table."And I'd rather keep my head tonight, so I didn't particularly feel like drinking. You can have it back....are you feeling quite alright?"

She nodded slightly, but refused his offer for the drink. "'I'm good. I just.. need to talk to Eli when he's done at that table, is all. Kind of important." She grabbed a chair and sat with her legs around the back, "You don't mind if we chill for a little, do ya? Visiting table after table in a row kinda wears me out after a bit."

Quinn stood by the side of the chair and just played with the glass in his hand, tipping it slightly back and forth."I can only imagine. I'm rubbish at this game. I've only had the guts to approach two tables as of yet...both lovely enough, but still..."

She looked up at him and merely offered a shrug. "A lot of them are really cool, some really cute, and very few interesting." "You know, I've been thinkin' about what you said back at the Atrium.. About me not needing a brother or sumthin'?" ..Where was she going with this?"Well I thought about it, I think.." Her tone and facial expressions suddenly became a lot more.. sincere, which was normally not a thing with her. "..I think you're the closest thing to a brother I got, Q."
Eli- "Whaaaat? Closest, huh? Tch, miss me with that nonsense."

Leo turned her head at the sound of Eli's voice. Finally!"I'll talk to you in a second.. Bro."
Eli- "Tchhhh, I'm not your bro, bro. Obviouslyyyy..."
She patted Quinn's back and simply stood from her chair. The look on his face could tell her very plainly how he felt; She had worn the same look many-a-time whenever she had to explain a painting to the principle of her old highschool. She understood the feeling all too well. "Hey, I get it." Her tone was that of intelligent empathy, tinged with sadness. Her look, however, was soon replaced with one of stern determination. She spoke low and quietly. "Listen.. It turns out our boy Marchese doesn't throw parties like this all the time - They are usually fancier and have more people, and I don't think the game is a reoccurring thing.."
Quinn- "..."
Eli- "Look, he's not even listening to you! You might as well just tell me."

"When I got up to fix my finger?" She holds up her hand, gesturing to the band aid, "One of the servants was, thankfully, very.. informative." She jerked a thumb at a passing servant, which wasn't the one she had talked to, but it didn't matter. They all looked the same..
"..And I don't have the slightest fuggin' clue, dude. This entire thing is starting to rustle my jimmies, if you get what I mean."
Eli- "Alright Jimmy, what are we supposed to do about it?"

Leo- "Ugh, you know August will throw a fit if we leave without getting Marchese's movie job, much less any patronage.. But I guess you gotta point. What are we gonna do, man?" The question sounded more like a demand than anything. She honestly had no idea how they could get out of there. Eli- "We just sit through this dumb party and skate. What else can we do? I'll throw a fit too if this whole ordeal was for nothing!"

A wave of anxiety seemed to wash over her face. She couldn't help but blurt out.. Leo- "Some stars, rather than turning into black holes upon death, shrink down to a denser, brighter, and hotter dwarf star.."
Eli- "Oh Leo, I'm sorry. I'm just cranky, I didn't stay hydrated..."
Leo- "God dammit.. Alright, for now, we play it cool. No one knows about this but us, right? Let's keep it that way. We can tell August whenever he's free. Everyone else will listen to him, they might not believe us."
Eli- "Oh man! But that's soooo awkward!"

Leo- "Hey.. Leo's got you, don't worry. Ain't nuthin' gonna happen that I can't handle, alright? Nothing can slay me, remember?" Similar to what she did with Quinn some time ago, she moved in for a hug, but stopped short as soon as she took a step, settling for only a firm pat on Eli's shoulder. Eli- "*one single ugly sob*"
