A commotion caught Conley’s attention and he turned, looking past Sachin’s shoulder. There was a turquoise ripple around Airey. How odd. Even odder was the fact that Airey didn’t seem his usual chipper neurotic self. Perhaps it was family trouble, the man always seemed a little harried by his children. Whatever the problem was, there should be plenty of DERP people around to deal with it. Just then Fletcher’s hello caught his attention. Conley noted the lovely lady with Fletcher and made a mental note to ask for an introduction and congratulations regarding the man's promotion later. ”Evening Fletcher,” he gave the man a wave and a smile. In doing so, he saw one of his employees, Jessica, walk in. Conley gave her a wave as well.

Eureka’s voice pulled his attention back. ”Was it blooming?” he asked about the one she had seen before. ”I heard they can be quite potent.” He noticed the nervous tick as she tucked hair behind her, but continued talking anyways. His own nerves were starting to settle, although he was still uncomfortable being around so many plants. Thankfully, making small talk was rather soothing, not to mention his bread and butter. ”Well, welcome back Ms. Eureka. Do you have a specialty that you research?" He offered a hand for her to shake. ”Conley, International Magical Cooperation.” He motioned to Sachin. "May I introduce Ambassador Singh.” While they chatted, another young lady (Grae) had joined them. He waited to see what Eureka had to say.

The only reason he was here, was because he had been bugged by Alba. And by bugged he meant, she might have mentioned it once and then asked him about it outright a week later. And yes, to Valentin that was akin to bugging. Still, as his only real friend in London, he agreed to meet her here. After all, one of the few things that the British Ministry was good at was throwing a party.

And what was the cardinal rule of parties? Never let your glass get too empty. In order to do that, one needed a drink. He made a beeline for the refreshment table, passing both Louise, Arabella, and another gentleman (Airey)who looked familiar, but at the moment, Valentin couldn’t place. As it was, his attention was set on getting his hands around something bubbly.
