Costume Party in Honor of Lex Luthor's Birthday [OPEN]

As stated on the invitation, Adrian is throwing a costume party to celebrate Lex's twenty-fifth birthday at the Luthor-Veidt Building in Brock Marsh. Everyone is welcome, whether they know Lex or not. There's plenty of food and free alcohol (mostly wine, fancy beer, and champagne), music and a space for dancing, and room to mingle and make new friends. Some simple and classy decorations, purple of course, have been put up on the first and second floors to create a festive atmosphere.

(A note to those who might try to take the opportunity to go snooping: security is insanely tight. The elevators will not go beyond the first and second floors without a special code, and there's an elevator operator who is very obviously there to make sure you don't try anything funny. The stairwells are likewise under guard and the private areas of the first floor are locked and under camera surveillance.)



[ooc: Please wait until a few threads are set up before tagging! Party time! Everyone is welcome!

Note: I've turned off notifs so if you need my attention in a specific spot, please PM or plurk me.]

Her gaze drops, the color rising in her cheeks a few degrees under his praise. "I had a lot of help," she demurs, "from the dressmaker." She looks up at him, shrugging. "And I haven't noticed any heads turning. But thank you--that's kind of you to say."

She glances down at the box and her smile widens; she's delighted that he likes the gift. She'd figured those were to his taste. "I'm glad you like them. You're welcome."

About the subject of head turning: "That's because you aren't looking, but trust me." His look turns conspiratorial. "Let me know if you start breaking too many hearts and need someone to chase them away with a stick."

He then takes a look at the card. "How did you find this Mr. Gray? Is he a friend of yours?"

She shakes her head, protesting, even as the color rises further in her cheeks. "Stop," she says good-naturedly. "And Gabriel's... an acquaintance, I guess? One of the people who answered one of my network calls. I remembered that he told me he made things. He was looking for antique metal recently and I asked what he could do with it." She gestures at the tiny box. "There you have it."

When Adrian gets into Rachel's personal space Lex briefly raises his eyebrows to the man as if asking if that is really necessary. The look passes briefly, as Lex doesn't want to make a scene and he replies just as evenly. "You're not at all, Mr. Veidt. I was just talking to Rachel, she's a good friend of mine."

He then turns his attention to Rachel. Someone has to be a pleasant representative of this house and make introductions. "Rachel Conway, Adrian Veidt."

Rachel turns--mildly surprised by how close Adrian stands, but she takes it in stride, offering him both a warm smile and a hand to shake.

"Mr. Veidt, it's a pleasure. Thank you for having me and the rest of the cohort here tonight; it's an incredibly generous gesture. I hope you're enjoying yourself too?"
