She had to hand it to Tobias- the guy sure knew how to throw a party.

The place was already filled with gorgeously dressed people, some dancing to the music while others mingled and admired the pieces of art on display. It was easy to tell from one look that the host had very nice taste in art; even the entryway was sculpted meticulously.

She tilted her head, peering at the man. "Do you think that's considered modern dance?"
