Genevieve
Genevieve was listening intently to Crystal, nodding her head, only to be interrupted by somebody taller, more brusque. She responded by straightening her posture and adjusting her hair, smiling warmly through the other woman's question.
"I am--it's my portrait at the end of the hall," Genevieve chirped, tilting her head. "Each of the predecessing Chauvet's is immortalized in some form of art here on the wonder so that we can be remembered. Can I offer you a glass of champagne?"
She waved over someone from the opposite end of the room, who offered a tray of the hand-crafted glasses for their perusal. "I would bring you one myself, but I lack the opacity until about 11." She covered her mouth to politely muffle a canned laugh.

Sunshine Ranch
Definitely an exotic guest, then. Aegir didn't bother saying anything, however, especially as the Blackbird excused themselves to hit up the petite person in the fox mask. So very...anxious seeming. And so familiar. I just can't place her.
Blackbird and her Fox wandered off after what looked like a tense conversation and more well dressed people arrived. None struck the same sort of recognition cord that she had, but some did tickle faintly.
He went to the refreshments to get a glass of champagne, raising it to the pair as they slipped off. Chauvet was a lovely place, he would mingle a bit, drink his champagne and look about before heading to the [Gallery] so he could view some of the artefacts that had been mentioned by the Ghost of Chauvets Past. He rather liked Genevieve in many ways, but she was rather...busy, so bothering her was not going to happen.

Aquaman/ Shangri La
Xander looked up to see Dessie grab the invitation and his eyes widened and he sighed. Of course ... of course, his daughter would be impatient, but he also knew she was a bit ... more than a bit antsy. "Guess that solves that," he said going to pick up the invitation. He shook his head and sighed looking to his sisters. "If we're lucky this wont go south, but the last ball didn't end well ... going into space also generally doesn't go well."
He looked to his sister's, "Obviously you dont need to be in "uniform" for this so just be careful." He gave Lily a pointed look, knowing she was probably nearly as antsy as Dessie.
He grabbed his invitation and mask and suddenly he was in a foyer wearing a mask that was now solid and decorated, half of his face was exposed and it made his feel the need to take his knight form, but nothing changed. He still wore the fancy mask and steampunkeque clothing. It was very Pluto but lacking in colors symbols. Surreal.
He couldnt feel out anyone despite there being people around. It was odd and offputting ... but he'd just have to try not to think about it. At least for now it didnt look like a trap.
Narcissa/Viminal
"Xander, long talks need to be had ... long talks ... were in England ... the summer is supposed to be away from all that. Now here we go ... here we go ... I better make it back in one piece or so help me."
She looked to her sister and sighed, "we'll come back fine ... dont worry and don't stress yourself out. You trained us well right? We got this. It will be fine I promise. Go find Eli, yeah? Date night? Distract yourself."
She smiled and grabbed her invite and her sister's effectively removing temptation and probably pissing her off in the process, but she doubted she actually make the decision to come anyway. She appeared next to her brother and niece. "Wow this is really something ... weird, but non threatening ... for now." She grinned at the beautiful black dress and delicate mask. "This my kind of space adventure ... I am here for this ... time to grabs some drinks."

CaptainFilching one of the glowing invitations hadn't been hard. Once he'd spotted one and figured out what they were for, he'd absolutely been determined to attend..and very little got in the way of a determined cat.
Much less in the way of a determined Mauvian.
Tiberius found himself on Chauvet Wonder wearing a cat sized mask in black with glowing circuitry to match his usual accessories. Around his neck were ruffles in white, black, and the glowing Tron blue with circuitry patterns running throughout. Sweet! Tibs chortled to himself and set about cruising the area, distracted by the scent of pizza and booze even more than he was by the really cool dampening effect of the mask he was wearing.
Ghost-tits had someone he absolutely recognized, like. A lot. At least, he was pretty sure that was Pop Rocks standing there, showing her goods for all the world to see - did he get pizza first? Did he bother Pop Rocks? In the end, pizza and hooch won out and the Mauvian made his way to the comestibles table, hopped up on it, and began lapping at a glass of champagne. TIBERIUS IS OPEN FOR INTERACTIONS

Bumblebee (Dessie Jacobs)A glance to her side reveled the tall redheaded male that was her dad and the tall redheaded woman that was her aunt. The only one hadn't showed up was Lily, which was odd but for the best all things considered. In all honesty she had expected to get scolded when the two 'adults' showed up but the first thing that was voiced was from Viminal... and it boiled down to 'neat, party'. "Sooooooo," Dessie made a face at her powered family and gestured to the party that was on going around them. "Doesn't seem like much of a trap to me." She hated it. She really had been hoping to stumble upon a fight already in progress so she could jump in to the fray and have a little fun. "Not that means anything." She shrugged and then asked, "Split up or stick together?" If they split up it was less likely that she would get a pulled into a corner for a talking too but if it really turned out this was a trap going their own way was just asking for trouble.

The Dark Fox - Cypher“And you as well.” He murmured. He didn’t get the chance to tell her his mind was on the surroundings, but she had to have seen more than he had, more recent things at least. He took a breath, lifted the mask he wore enough to risk a sip of the champagne. It was strange, unlike anything he’d ever tasted before, an… uncomfortable sensation that he didn’t especially want to consider, perhaps no more of it then, perhaps… He didn’t want to stand out, not when it was unclear how many of them there were, or weren’t. Could he get them home if he needed to? He wasn’t sure… if its was space again… and it seemed they might be given the ghostly knight…. well, not good. He exhaled again, and then nodded, coming to a decision. If he was going to learn things about this strange place. The Gallery seemed a good place to begin. (exit to the gallery)

SplendorHe agreed with the girl for the most part. Free food was always nice! He nodded to her when she confessed that she didn't like museums. "Not everyone does. I'm mostly going so that I can escape the dancing, but hopefully I'll see you around sometime too." He replied, and watched her saunter off to the beat. He sighed. Honestly, they could at least go with some classical music! There was even dance music without lyrics! Why couldn't they have gone with that instead?! But no matter, he had his chance to escape, and he ducked into the gallery, hoping that the noise would be a bit more muted there. And if not, well, he hoped that there might be somewhere to escape this place. [Splendor EXIT to the Gallery]

Vodka || Lauri The invitation came. Addressed to Aue Juvenile and like someone spent five minutes playing with a Word program. In the 90s. It was only missing Comic Sans, really.
Clearly it was meant for Order Aue and not the twisted version he'd chosen to become. Pity, he was still going to make the attempt to go, it was worth checking something like that out for recon purposes.
When the invite started glowing, he reached for it, fresh out of the shower and with a towel loosely around his hips; his mistake only too apparent as he was whisked away through space to Wonder Chauvet as a civilian.
Upon his face rested a mask, he couldn't really tell what it looked like, but it felt like a half mask and there were feathers - he could feel them moving when he moved his head. At his waist, instead of the towel, fabric draped in artistic folds, some sheer, some less so due to fabric doubling and tripling. <********>.
Of course he shouldn't have touched an activated, unknown magic. Too late now. There were many people around - should have been many auras - but there weren't. He recognized Tiberius, but one cat wasn't capable of dampening an entire room so neatly, so perhaps it was a function of the mask that was solidly attached to his face? Something native to Chauvet Wonder? A ghost stood to one side, speaking with - someone...familiar. Lauri grabbed what was passing for a 'flute' of champagne and sniffed it before sipping it. He ignored Tiberius' greedy lapping at the booze and greedier gobbling of the pizza under the pride flag.
He wasn't certain what was more or less unfortunate - being civilian or being powered. Fewer people knew him as Lauri, knew the ornate tattoo across his back that was certainly on display, but it did leave him strangely vulnerable when he'd rather not.
The Finn went into the crowd with his drink.INTERACT AT UR OWN RISK

Narcissa/Viminal"Im going to enjoy myself while s**t isnt hitting the fan, just don't go far kid and dont take off the mask." Rose headed for the champagne on the table frowning at the fact there was a cat on the table. She frowned and moved kitty tail out of the way as she picked up some champagne and chugs the first. She grabs another and sighs at knowing being drunk in space probably wasn't the best idea. "You know if you shed as much as a normal cat, you probably shouldn't actually be on the table..." She gave the cat a pointed look and sipped her wine again. Aquaman/Shangri LaShang looked to Dessie and shrugged, "you still in trouble, Bumblebee, but for now what Narcissa said. Don't start anything please." He moved toward the gallery to appreciate the artifacts, as he certainly didnt really appreciate the music. Exit to the gallery

Captain || TiberiusHaving someone come up to get a drink wasn't startling at all, what was startling was having said woman touch his tail to move it. "Hey dollface, how 'boutcha look but don't touch the goods.?" He licked his chops and waved a paw at Narcissa before taking another bite of his pilfered pizza, another lap of champagne.
"I shed more, it's a neat party trick. Wanna see?" His ears swept back and he shifted as though he was gonna do it - which is was gonna do, absolutely, mostly because it would upset this bougie looking broad looking down her nose. "'Sides, I was savin' those for someone. Me."

Mori / AnankeStaring around as she had just arrived, when she had gotten the invention she thought it was some sort of mistake... but now she's here on someone else's world. She was wearing a pretty nice dress too. It felt a little strange though... all her outfits as Ananke were red or orange but today she was in something that was seafoam green. But she guessed by the mask she was wearing she's not technically supposed to be Ananke right now... in a mysterious kind of way... maybe she could use this try and become more mature sailor solder... yeah right. Looking out at the crowd she wondered who was attending this party... were they all on the same side or... no, she had a feeling there were a lot of different people here... Quote: Ananke is open for interaction quote me or hit me up in discord if ya want some hardcore past life connections hit me up in discord.

Narcissa/Viminal
"Dollface ... seriously ... please fastforward to this decade ... if you must call me anything call me Narcissa." She frowned sipping her drink once more before rolling her eyes. "You do know you cat right," she reaches to scratch behind his ears, "practically live for this right?"
She laughed and gave him a look, "I mean you could do that, but how do you really feel about eatting and drinking your own fur. I personally would prefer fur free sustenance, but I mean I can partake in not pizza when I home. So by all means."
She waved a hand to say have at it. She could care less. She could get alcohol from the other spot, or not.

Parsley (Basiluzzo)Basiluzzo took a sip, more focused on what Encke was saying and not so much paying attention to what the drink looked like. Britney Spears was an incredibly welcome addition to the party ambiance, and Encke hadn't been the only person to break out in a grin when it started to play. There was perhaps a little bit of foot-tapping to the music, a little bit of a shimmy in place as Basiluzzo listened to it and to Encke. Not being much for alcohol, Basiluzzo didn't drink more than a sip or two, either. It tasted alright, he supposed. "Well, the music is good, but we can probably listen to it later at the studio..." He hummed for a moment, glancing around the room. "We could just go to the Gallery?"

 It is 9 PM.Drinking the champagne, you notice that the flavors seem to shift with each and every sip, sometimes sweet, sometimes dry, but always smooth on the way down. It's the least magical property of the champagne by far--over time, you notice that the wonder seems a little less decrepit and rusty around the edges, and if you squint you can almost imagine where pastel banners would have run from ceiling to floor, emblazoned with six pointed stars. The decor isn't the the only thing to start to change; around you, you start to notice more of the transparent figures, faded almost out of existence, most of them listless and searching. Like you, they're wearing gilded filigree and draped fabrics and masks, but unlike you, they don't seem to notice many of the modern decorations in the foyer--they dance and chatter and move about through the center, seemingly unaware that there are two galas happening at once. You blink, and for just a moment the ceiling disappears, giving way to an open and starry sky above. One of the figures pauses in their dance to look at you. It's someone you've lost to time, and it seems clear from their expression that they know exactly who you are under your mask. What was in that champagne?You start to think...maybe you've been here before.Quote: What this means:Characters choosing to participate in the past life portion may now begin play in the Silver Millenium gala, linked above. For the remainder of the gala, they will proceed to have flickers of memories from this event, as per the Golden Vial item.
Characters not participating in the past life portion may see the shade of one person important to them from this lifetime who has died and interact with them freely. Other people may see the shade, but they are only interested in speaking with the person who 'invited' them back to the Gala. They may be aware that they're dead, but have no memory of the afterlife or what it feels like to be part of the cauldron.
It only takes a single sip, but no champagne, no crazy effects! Sorry, folks! Of course, being sober means you get to make fun at the crazies talking to ghosts.
This prompt will stay up for three days--look for the clock to strike 10 on Saturday evening!
