Re: Early evening in the living room - Rey + Hugh
"Thank you," he slid into the area near her, but not so near as to be overly familiar. Hugh was a physical person by nature, but he tried to make certain that he wasn't invading someone's space or making them uncomfortable, and he didn't know Rey well enough yet to know whether she was or not. He took a sip of his cocktail and grinned at her. "Always, because honestly, I'm pretty certain it's going to look better than last year, and I'm 100% here for that. This," he waved his cocktail holding hand carefully at the room, "already bodes well and so yes, I'm looking forward to new roles, new projects, new friends, the whole works."
He tilted his head. "Anything specific you're looking forward to, or hoping for the upcoming year?"
