By the Snack Table, 6:40pm - OPEN
Kate walked into the rec room, wearing a dark green sweater and khaki-colored pants. She had left her coat in her apartment after taking Scilla and Carrie back up after their walk. She didn't like being late to events, but she had wanted to get the dogs' walk in before it got too cold for the night. She hoped the event was a casual drop-in like she thought it was.
She took note of her surroundings. Pleasant music played loudly enough to be audible but not overpower the conversation--she'd have to ask Stephan for the composer's details. Several people milled around the lush furniture and stylish decor. The only person she recognized was Isobel, who was speaking to another woman at the refreshments table. Kate didn't want to interrupt, but she was hungry and the smell of hot food had drifted over, so she made her way to the table and began to put a plate together.
