It's slightly odd to see members of Infinite together in a social gathering, as they often avoid each other while off-stage. Eric Quillington sits at a table with Amelia Florentine, the two talking about the musical concepts for Infinite's new album. Matt Roberts is also present, but, as the member of Infinite least interested in lyrics, he spends his time drawing aimlessly on a piece of paper with a slightly bored expression. His drawings are rather childlike and devoid of actual artistic talent; the only scribble that even vaguely resembles what it's supposed to is a heart with the letters 'MR + MR'.Edited by user 01 December 2011 05:16:20(UTC)

Scott nods.
Scott: Sure...I am. It's still a while away though. I reckon it's prepared.
He sighs
Scott: Yeah I'll have a beer thanks man.
Cassie: Just lemonade please Jasey. |

Jason: If you say so man... I just remember you being really excited about it last time I saw you.
Jason nods and orders two beers and a lemonade. He then serves the drinks and kisses Cassie on the forehead as he does so. Out of the corner of his eye, he then sees something...
Jason: Wait.. is that... Eric? What's he doing here? ERIC! DUDE!
Jason flails his arms about trying to get his attention. |

Matt Robert's loving drawing of a stick-figure (possibly a woman) holding up a French flag is ruined when Jason's yelling causes his hand to shake and ruin the line constituting the drawing's left arm. While his bassist mumbles angrily to himself, Eric leaps out of his chair to greet Jason, cutting off Amelia mid-word. With the other two members of Infinite now decidedly miffed, Eric says;
Eric; JASON! Godamn, it's been a while... what's up? |

Jason smiles at Cassie and kisses her gently again, before turning back to Scott.
Jason: Not much really... I, too, am getting married as you can see. Working on two new albums. Moved to Texas. That's about it really.
He chuckles. He then sees Eric and bro-hugs him.
Jason: ERIC!! It's been way too long dude, waaaaaay too long... yeah, not much really. Yourself? |

He smiles.

Jason: Yeah, I'm really excited man... it's in Australia, it's a pretty small affair. We don't want too many people knowing about it, only close friends such as yourself, otherwise it could get public and we may get invaded. And we moved to Texas so we could be closer to Katie, since I'm having her kid and all... Texas is lovely anyway. I do miss some parts of London, but Texas is awesome. |

While Eric was able to bound over to the table of musicians and celebrities with boundless enthusiasm and confidence, Amelia is a different matter entirely. Leaving Matt to draw his stick-figures, Amelia walks over to the table and clears her throat.
Amelia: Erm... hi, Cassie Bitch. Or, y'know, just Cassie... I dunno if the 'Bitch' part is a derrogative nickname or anything, but.. anyways, yeah, I'm something of a fan.
As Amelia stumbles through her introductions, Eric sits down next to Jason and orders a drink. |

Amelia: I used to read your columns in @Chaos Magazine. It was nice to know someone else also thinks that Eric is a weed. Either ignoring Amelia's comment or not hearing it, Eric says to Jason.Eric: Oh, dude, thanks again for agreeing to perform at Wembley... so, d'you think you could do a five-to-ten song setlist when it happens? Probably won't be until January or February, but it's nice to plan in advance, haha. Edited by user 01 December 2011 05:35:47(UTC)

Jason: Why can't you come then dude?
He then sees Amelia and puts his arm around Cassie.
Jason: Oh hey... Amelia, right? I know your cousin, Maddie.
He turns to face Eric.
Jason: Anything you want dude. I can go however long you want. Do you want it to be solo stuff or Mind? |

Upon hearing Maddie's name, Matt Roberts lifts up his head, looking like a deer caught in headlights. After a moment of looking around, his facial features return to normal, and he goes back to his drawings.
Eric: It can be anything you want, dude. Even Project; Prometheus stuff. Of course, if you did do some of the songs we did together, I'd have to come up on stage with you.. |

Cassie laughs a little.
Cassie: Yeah...I was angry back then. Not now though. I'm ok with Eric now.
Scott turns to Jason.
Scott: Ah...you know man, Gia and I have got Sophie now..I don't know if I could tell her I was going away to Australia this weekend. |

Appearing rather quickly, Glamazon walks in with a black fur coat (faux fur, of course) as the blade of her axe pokes out of her pocket. She makes her way over to Eric.

Jason: I think Gia's already pretty pissed dude actually, you're right... it's a shame you can't come. I would invite Gia and Sophie, but I know that she'd just make a huge fuss about it. No offence.
He then turns back to Eric.
Jason: Awesome idea!... I've sorta forgotten how to play the tunes, but I'll remember them in time, trust me. Oh... by the way... is Matt still sad about Maddie?
...And back to Cassie. |

Eric leaps out of his chair to give Glamazon a hug, and quickly introduces her to everyone. Amelia, now surrounded by legendary musicians, quickly becomes very intimidated, and turns a bright red. Deciding not to seem too shy or awkward, she overcompensates by deciding to ask Jason the stupidest question ever conceived.
Amelia: 'Sad about Maddie...?' So, wait, does Matt have something of a thing for her?
Matt's head jerks upwards again at the mention of Maddie's name, and looks around the room with intense interest. After realizing the search is futile, he mutters an explicit under his breath and starts writing a poem. |

Scott: You could invite her man, but I know she wouldn't want to go. She just wouldn't come.
He sighs.
Scott: It's a shame.
He whispers to Jason whilst Cassie is busy with Amelia.
Cassie: So shes really 'the one man? |

She smiles as she hugs Eric and then shifts her eyes over to Amelia.
Glamazon: I don't believe we've met before! Hey, sweetheart, umm... your face... are you feeling OK? |
