( the feed opens to the view of a young blonde woman, currently seated at a bright white desk in what's unmistakably a former storage room turned office space. they hadn't exactly given her the space... but it wasn't being used, so she's commandeered it for herself. nobody's told her not to, either, so what's the harm?

she's smiling, today, pearly whites beamed into the general direction of the camera; there's a natural friendliness to her tone that makes it clear she's particularly enthusiastic about this. )

Hi, everyone. My name is Caroline Forbes, and I'm broadcasting today on behalf of Cadelle's Social Committee. If you've never heard of them, they're — well, we're, obviously — the administrative team that puts together all of the great events here in the city that we all go to, like the Match Meetings or the — ( a pause, as her gaze dips down to consult a list on her desk ) — the ball?

( rude. she can't believe she missed out on a ball. well, no matter. they'll just have to have another one. not that caroline's coffee fetching and to-do list accomplishing really gives her the power to determine the social calendar, but a girl can dream. )

Right. So, the spring Energy Festival is coming up later this month, and we're looking for volunteers to help set up and run the different booths and festival experiences. Especially from anybody tall, because we only have three ladders and these banners just won't hang themselves. Or, I guess, if you can fly, that might be helpful too...

( a snort of laughter from someone in the background, and caroline's brows furrow together in frustration for just a moment before she's right back at it, focused and determined to get to the end of her message. )

I'm here in City Hall until five today, so please come see me if you want to sign up or if you have any questions! Left wing, blue hallway, room 56-A! Okay, hope to see you soon!

( aaaand end feed. )

I could definitely use the help! The booths all need a little pizzazz, and there's a million sequins that still need to be attached.

( is that glitter on the suit jacket? she's enamored already. )

I guess you're not opposed to shiny things?

[Glitter on the jacket, sometimes glitter on the eyes, he's not opposed to putting glitter anywhere it's needed.]

I thrive on shiny things, and I'm not at all afraid of sequins. Are you still working today? Tomorrow morning first thing?

[gasping]

I'm here until five! And then I come in at ten tomorrow, but we have a staff meeting... ( she trails off for a moment, consulting her calendar, before she pipes back up again. ) Afternoon tomorrow, though, I'm free!

( she'll be happy to have the help. she might be superstrong and capable of sprinting at superhuman speeds, but decorating an entire festival alone is still a bit of an overwhelming task. )

If you have any friends who are also into sequins and decorating, please bring them with you.

I'll spread around the news for tomorrow, but as of now, I'm your man. Everything I'm mixing up needs to brew for a few hours anyway.

[Besides, eccentric opening hours will only benefit his reputation as a somewhat mysterious proprietor, always a good thing when dealing in potions.]

Do you need anything? Ribbon, tinsel, vodka?

[gasping]

I'm more of a single-barrel whiskey kind of girl, actually.

( a quip more so than anything, but at least it's true. )

But I could totally use a hand setting up the booths. And maybe some ribbon, now that you mention it.
