This is the general mingle log for August. Feel free to post open top levels for: new arrivals, job duties, general hanging out in common spaces, bonding with your block, and anything else you can think of. There will not be a catch all for the event, so you can put event starters here or in their own separate log!

[ Abigail wanders through the house silently, treading carefully and definitely feeling like she's intruding. She tries to apologise to one of the people wandering around for just walking into their home unannounced, but to her surprise they don't seem to see her at all.

It's a welcome relief when she finds Michael. ]

[ He gestures for her to join him in the sitting area in front of one of the six marble fireplaces the home contains. ]

This is your house?

[ Abigail looks impressed, not to mention a little bit intimidated - this is as far from her rural Minnesota upbringing as she could imagine.

She sits at his invitation, one leg crossed over the other and her hands clasped on her knee. ]

My grandmother's house, yes. Or it was. I'm not certain what's become of it now.

[ Definitely never a home, but it's where he spent his younger years. Still, his tone suggests that he's not entirely bothered by the idea of it. Seeing Ms. Mead in this place would make him uncomfortable, he thinks. Hers had always felt like home to him. ]

Okay, wow. [ She isn't sure what else to say, though she realises she must sound pretty lame. ] Seems like a nice place to grow up.
