Aurora smiles at Mitsuko.  She enjoyed her energy, a welcome contrast
to her calmer demeanor, and it was nice to know that the city spirit
or spirits were strong and friendly with Mitsuko.  She could only hope
the same was true for herself.

Aurora focused on the music already playing at the party, the
character of the house would surely be part of that, spinning the
bracelet on her right wrist gently and opening herself up to the
Spirit, yet closing her eyes she gently sways, outside observers would
probably see her as simply drinking in the music rather than listening
into the Spirit.
