WHO: Everyone! IC/OC
WHEN: Thursday, 21 December 1999
WHERE: The Manor House, Macmillan Park
SUMMARY: Mid-Season (Christmas) Party hosted by the Montrose Magpies at Macmillan Park, cocktail dresses and blazers suggested.
RATING: Low

The Macmillan Family welcomes you to to Macmillan Park for the Mid-Season Yule party for all of Scottish Quidditch (and then some).

The Manor House is decorated for the season, with each room on the first floor having a display of its own. The public areas of the garden are also decorated and kept at a comfortable temperature (as long as you are wearing a cloak) with plenty of warming charms. Christmas crackers are available on all of the tables for all of your paper crown and terrible joke needs.

Finger foods and drinks (alcoholic and non) are plentiful. Eggnog can be made either way and if you want a hot chocolate with a splash of whisky, nobody is going to bat an eye. Entertainment is provided by the Tomnahurich Quartet and the Calanais Singers throughout the night in the main hall. A selection of seasonal songs in the muggle and wizarding traditions were planned, but both groups will take requests. They will be performing both together and separately.

For any children who joined their parents in the festivities, they have their own party going on upstairs in the rarely-used nursery (think very large and extensive playroom with bedrooms nearby and a schooling area). There are kid friendly foods, including sandwiches, personal pizzas in seasonal shapes, a Hot Chocolate Bar, and cherry flavored fizzy drinks. There are, of course, plenty of sweets to be had as well.

	It's not long before Lex has a paper crown on her head - Hufflepuff yellow if she's lucky. She's keeping to non-alcoholic fizzy drinks tonight and is more than happy to make the rounds socializing. She's on her best behavior tonight. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Georgi stops her to say hello and see if her head is any better! Also, she looks beautiful in a dress and he's predictably pink-cheeked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She tells him that she still has to wait and see what the healers say, but she's working on getting better. "Well, sometimes I do wear something besides a Montrose kit. Very rarely though. So feast your eyes, this doesn't happen too often." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He laughs through his mortification at the idea of staring at his (married! old! amazing!) Beater partner. "You look very beautiful in anything," he tells her sincerely, and bows over her hand very properly. "But especially in this dress you are most beautiful lady in the room. I'm glad you are getting better." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lex blushes and gives him a kiss on the cheek. "You are a sweetheart and a flatterer. But I'll be watching you and Kal closely and giving pointers. So keep working hard." (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Maddock of course comes to see Lex for some hellos and holiday cheer. Also to check up on her and see how she is. He IS aware that Ellie went to see her... just doesn't know what happened. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Mixing & Mingling yaxlie 2017-12-22 12:42 am UTC (link)
	She has warm hellos for Mads. And will demand a dance from her tomcat. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Mixing & Mingling maddocked 2017-12-22 12:57 am UTC (link)
	Warm hellos earn hugs! He will comment that she looks absolutely lovely. And of course he'll put her on his dance card. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"You look quite dapper yourself, Mads." You might even get a kiss, maddock. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ellie feeling rather ... festive at this point interrupts their conversation. "Nope. No," she says catching the last comment and the not serious flirting."Totally not a kitten, far more of a dog." She says bumping Maddock's shoulder. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Mixing & Mingling maddocked 2017-12-23 05:40 am UTC (link)
	Oh look, interruption. "Hello," Maddock puts his arm around Ellie's shoulder after she bumped him. "Sometimes Mad Dog, sometimes Tom Cat." Maddock shrugs. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Angus calls the crown more of a Gryffindor gold, and has a kiss and careful hug for her, and an extravagant compliment about how gorgeous she looks. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Mixing & Mingling yaxlie 2017-12-23 01:38 am UTC (link)
	"As if I'd be caught dead in Gryffindor gold," she teases with a wink and a big hug and kiss. She definitely flushes a bit at the compliment. "I do know how to clean up." (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Re: Mixing & Mingling chucking 2017-12-22 10:08 pm UTC (link)
	Chuck smiles when she spots Lex's familiar face and makes a beeline for her friend to greet her and ask how she's been. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Mixing & Mingling yaxlie 2017-12-23 01:32 am UTC (link)
	Lex gives her a smile and tells her recovery is slow, but so far so good. Lex gives Chuck a smile. "How are you? And how's Lennox?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Chuck's happy to hear that since she wants to see her friend playing again. "I'm doing pretty alright, and enjoying my break so far." Not very noticeable, unless you're watching, but there was a slight blush. "I see you waste no time," she says with a slight grin. "If you mean have we seen each other since the dinner? I mean, aside from talking with him afterwards.... then I don't know. I was kind of hoping to see him tonight though."
