Theo and Belvina
Theo smiled at the question. Of course he wasn't, and of course he could not say that he rather wanted this party not to have happened at all. At least not outright. "I am the host, I'm not supposed to have time to enjoy myself," he joked, though in this case it was more true than not. Normally he loved parties, loved the chance to listen to secrets, to use what he heard sway people in the way he wanted when it was over. As much as he was a researcher at heart, he had learnt to adapt and enjoy the parties for what it could bring in terms of knowledge.
"I might make an exception for your company," he added. "It is not always one have such graceful guests."
"I hope you've settled into your suite?" he asked. "You know that if you are in want or need of anything you can always ask me or Pansy. I am only sorry that we did not learn of your accommodation before, or we would have invited you to stay sooner." And for once he was completely honest. "A woman such as yourself should not have to live under such conditions."
