Lovely little place this is, isn't it?" she said, with a friendly smile. Or at least she thought so. What she could see of it through the crowd, anyway.

What was possibly making the situation even more odd, in Aliceara's mind, was that this was so obviously not like any of the industry events she had attended before she'd relegated her modeling and acting to her side job. She vaguely recognized half of the people from having had them come into Malkin's, and all that did was help her stay convinced that she was so very rusty at these things. Appearances and the like. This was nothing like the disaster that was that Ministry party ages ago when that Borr man had been Minister. Back then she had been the one approaching people, namely Milton, which only reminded her that he wasn't around anymore. She couldn't prod him to be more outgoing anymore.

Half-wishing she had sent an owl to Sebastien to ask if he'd wanted to come to this with her, as at least it meant she'd have someone to talk to, someone that she knew would take part in an intelligent conversation with her, no matter how random it turned out, she watched the Bott-Toussaint conversation for a while, still with the odd feelings about having sold clothing to at least some of them. She even recalled the man Ellsworth Bott Toussaint had embraced earlier having been in her shop this summer, not that long before now, having a discussion with the Ministry woman who was also part of that conversation. Being observant came in useful occasionally, but then she hadn't exactly been very observant right now as she heard a woman's voice speaking from nearby and turned with a smile. "It really is," she replied. "I actually had met the previous shopkeeper, and I imagine Ms. Valentine will only continue to keep things moving smoothly forward," she continued with a smile. "Aliceara Ravenswood. Pleasure to meet you, Ms. Carter."
