Jay often felt a little out of his depth on the island. He was never entirely sure what his purpose was- he enjoyed working in the pub well enough, and it seemed to be the closest to what he was actually good at. He knew that his talent lay in throwing parties- that seemed to be what he ended up being known for, at least. And the people on this island really did deserve to have a little fun when they could get it. After seeing how happy Maryanne was, Jay felt like he just wanted to spread the love, and see some more smiles on faces.

He'd arranged something of a buffet, some American foods (Chips and dips, mini hot dogs, chicken wings, pizza slices) mixed with some traditional Jewish cuisine (hamantaschen, cous cous, challah, stuffed vine leaves), and the bar had been set up for self-service, although Jay would be happy to mix a cocktail for anyone who had a particular request.

As for a costume, Jay was out of his usual three-piece suit, and dressed as a massive crayon, of course.

Now, he just had to hope people actually turned up, or he was just a nutter in a costume.

	"Oh, no, I have absolutely no idea!" he admitted, with a soft laugh. "I didn't like to ask, just in case you weren't wearing one and were awfully offended," he explained, with a sheepish smile. "It's possible," he nodded. "I'm glad to hear it. And that's good, how nice! It does help. A friend of mine was here when I first arrived, but- no, it's just me, now."

	Abigail actually giggled at that. "Oh, it's a costume. Based on a character from a children's tv program. About young detectives and their dog." "Oh, I'm sorry to hear about your friend." Abigail murmured. She wasn't sure if his friend vanished or died, but neither was good in her mind. She didn't know what she would do if anything happened to Hannibal.

	"I see! Well, that makes much more sense," he smiled. "Sounds exciting," he told her, and he wasn't actually lying. The concept of television in any way still made him feel rather overawed. He nodded, and shrugged slightly. "Yes, well, from what I understand, he will have been sent home, so perhaps it is for the best," he told her, trying to look on the bright side.
