Who: Society and paying guests (tag yourself in)
What: Fundraiser for the Children's Legal Aid and Mentoring Society (CLAMS), organized by the Old Wizarding Literary Society (OWLS)
When: Friday evening 29 March
Where: Clarinda Macmillan Avery Arts Centre at WADA
Warnings: Probably going to be some bigoted talk but none expected beyond that.

The Clarinda Macmillan Avery Arts Centre is the premiere theatre at WADA and also contains a large reception area. Tonight it has been laid out with food and drink for those enjoying the evening. The premiere events tonight are a performance by Celestina Warbeck for her many fans and an auction for goods and services donated by patrons and businesses--including a chance to eat dinner with Celestina Warbeck.

Tonight's benefit was organized by the witches and gentlewizards of the Old Wizarding Literary Society in support of the Children's Legal Aid and Mentorship Society, a charity that provides legal support, educational funding, and mentoring to children impacted by Death Eater attacks. All ticket funds and auction proceeds will go to that good work. Goods and services used at the event were promoted by individuals and vendors.

The theatre will be used to host the concert and auction, and the food and drink will be laid out in the lobby and reception area. The music will be broadcast in the reception area during the concert and there will be additional music by WADA musicians and alumni during the auction.

In addition there are outside areas for smoking and the WADA gardens for more private meetings and discussions.

VOLUNTEER SLOTS

Rodolphus Lestrange & [Volunteer 2] get into a bidding war over a desirable prize in the auction. (Date with Celestina Warbeck? Art item? Private dinner catered by wizarding Britain's best chef and his house elves? You decide!)
Tairith Burke may have overindulged slightly in the champagne punch and is talking about throwing certain people into Azkaban very loudly, leading Rabastan Lestrange to take them outside to get some fresh air for their own good.
[Volunteer 5] disappears briefly in the middle of the event and returns looking a bit worse for wear. Were they spying or having some quality private time with a secret friend? Who knows?
[Volunteer 6] is extremely enthusiastic about getting an autograph from Celestina Warbeck and is sent off by her security. [Volunteer 7] gets an autograph for them anyhow.
Lucius Malfoy crosses party and political lines to ask Lily Potter to dance in the reception area. Shocking! Expect your name to be in the gossip columns tomorrow.

Fabian was, of course, a good dancer. All gentlemen of his age and breeding were expected to be. He tended to avoid Aurors in general, and he probably ought to avoid this one in particular, but ... sure, why not make trouble? "How are you finding this gig? We don't usually see you at this kind of thing, and it's always lovely to have a relatively fresh face who doesn't know all our stories and has new ones to tell."

Tairith was no slouch at dancing herself, though she would hate to admit that Fabian was certainly better than she was. She smirked slightly at his question and looked up from her own feet to meet his eyes. "I don't usually attend these formalities, I usually have more pressing matters to attend to."

"I half expected you to verbally reprimand me for bringing in your sister for questioning.."

Fabian managed to shrug without interrupting his lead on the dance. "You got a lead, even if it's only some garbage in the Prophet, and you're required to follow up on it. I know the drill. Molly tends to overreact to things so I don't take her complaining about it at face value." There was enough truth in it that while his statement wouldn't have passed veritaserum muster, it rang with verisimilitude.

"Precisely, I don't overlook leads into crimes..no matter who is involved." She decided to ignore his comment about the prophet. She tried her best to muster a polite smile, albeit a bit forced, "Maybe sometime you and I could speak about the misunderstandings..off the record of course." She continued to dance with Fabian and allow him to lead, even though he was clearly an accomplished dancer she hated letting other's lead..in anything.

Which was how they got you, on the off-the-record stuff. Fabian knew as well as anybody that there were Aurors and little people, and when he'd dropped out of the programme he'd become little people. On the other hand, Fabian had danced around this sort of thing with Aurors in the past, so he wasn't worried about this. "Of course, if you like. Nothing much to tell." He shrugged without missing a beat.
