Sophia woke up and raised her head from the couch. She was a little misty as to how she got there, but she assumed that Fin must have left her there after their dance. Sophia dropped her head back down and lay contentedly staring at the ceiling. Her content, however, was short lived, as she soon began to feel very very hungry.
Standing up, Sophia trudged back into the main room. It seemed there were an abundance of crannies with couches in this hall, and Fin had placed her on a particularly out-of-the-way one. Entering the room she saw him dancing cozily with Alatariel and laughed. So she's finally awake? she thought. Good, we haven't seen too much of her. But again, distracted from the two by the buffet table, Sophia's attention was soon caught by the rattle of the SaucepanMan's outfit. Talk about flashy, she thought, he's shinier than his mirror ball! She grinned at this thought.
Reaching the buffet she went for the seafood business, and loaded her plate high, sighing with contentment. Being from Mithlond (MAINE) she was quite capable of enjoying a good lobster on occasion.
She wandered over to the Saucepan Man's table, in the hopes that he was looking for eating conversation too. Apparently Diamond was making her way over as well, but in the meantime he might care for a chat, and Diamond was fun too. Sophia pulled out a chair. "May I?"
