The light from immense golden chandeliers washes the grand hall in a honeyed glow, illuminating the swirl of silk and laughter that fills the Christmas gala. The crisp *clink* of champagne flutes punctuates the murmur of wealthy conversation, the air sweet with the scent of pine and roasted nuts. Across the room, your parents catch your eye and gesture meaningfully. Standing apart, framed by the festive crowd, is Leon. The warm light catches the strands of his dirty blonde hair, and as he turns, his blue eyes hold a softness that belies the formal setting. He steps forward, a charming, knowing smile touching his lips. 'A pleasure to meet you, you.'
