Isla
Laughing softly under her breath - even with how outgoing Everest has become (and that sends a pang of dark guilt through her to even consider that it might not be that way soon) she still finds it funny to imagine the Dusklight workers as his study buddies. "That sounds like a wise decision," she agrees, gently clinking her glass against his own once he's taken a sip and given his approval. "I will take that as a real compliment, given that you used to work at The Hanged Man." He knows a good vintage better than she does, she thinks, though granted, Ever probably hadn't been tasting many of the wines when he'd worked there.
Raising her eyebrows at the suggestion of the sort of surprise party he might approve of - and with his fingers squeezing gently against her hip - Isla can already feel heat beginning to curl low in her belly with the implication. Purposely peeling herself away from the aviator, she nonetheless gives him a wicked smile. "Let me go and officially say hello to him," she says, "if you want to arrange the less social setting for us?"
Blowing him a kiss, she saunters away to sidle up beside Astaroth where he's chatting to Thalassa, smiling to them both. "Happy Birthday," she chimes to the butcher. "Sorry to interrupt. I just wanted to make sure I said hello before the party runs away with us." Nodding to Thal, she holds out her hand. "I'm Isla," she introduces herself.
