[ Tim bumps into the young woman with a little yelp, and reaches out quickly for her shoulder, to steady her. ]
Oh, no, I'm sorry. [ With his knuckle, he pushes his glasses back into place, the collision set them askew. ] You can call me Tim, please.
[ The sound of his voice is familiar, even if the tone is different, and the accent is glaringly American. Tim hasn't been called your grace in his life until tonight, and he's not looking to continue. He's not even sure why he's been singled out tonight for their little prize, what on earth they could be rewarding him for. Even in his fantasies, he doesn't have beautiful people waiting on him, feeding him, fanning him. In any other circumstance, he'd more likely be the one holding the grapes. ]
It's my fault they shoved you. They're getting tired of me giving everyone a piece of cake and sending them on their way. You want some?
[ Gestures at a side table, with half a birthday cake sitting on it. Happy Birthday, Tim! June 6th! ❤️ They're late. Tim's big brown eyes are kind, apologetic, embarrassed to be part of all the fuss, but have no hint of recognition for her whatsoever. ]
vvv!
