Re: Lucas/Isobel/Obed - 7:30 p.m., hanging around
"Well, we're glad you did," Isobel replied, smiling back at Lucas as her hands came together around her drink. "And hopefully Alice will show up as well. I haven't spoken to her much about the party... There's been too many other distractions this month." Her mouth wobbled a bit, but she forced the smile to remain.
"And November has Thanksgiving, so maybe you can still squeeze in a jack-o-lantern? I'd think it's still very fall-ish. Do you have plans with family for Turkey Day?" She sipped her tart apple-flavored drink, honestly curious if people would use the holidays as an excuse to escape from Pax, even if for a short while.
