Aianon has made a plant in the open airless space above the surface of Thilanushinyel. It is a very, very large plant - some dragons will be attending the party, after all, even if Ansharil in particular is going to be assorted small things and stay on Sarion's person the bulk of the time.
The locals will be Sarion, her beloveds, their other beloved, the five conjured dragons (and their Bondmates, where applicable: Virgivere and Lissa), and Liselen - Magania has, as usual, declined, and so far no Bell party has featured Bell parents.
Amariah is bringing her boyfriend and spontaneous daughter and two of the spontaneous daughter's friends, as well as an Alethian instance of the Rupert template.
Shell Bell is bringing Pearl and Screwdriver.
Golden is bringing her usual large contingent, as usual not including her husband but including her daughter and daughter's grown fosterling (the other remaining at home) and his wolf, both mothers-in-law and one father-in-law, adopted siblings, staff members including the Joker and Nathan, and the children of the aforementioned.
Glass is bringing both wives, all three daughters, Kanim, and her cat. She invited Icarin and Valeria, but their parents are not willing to let them gallivant into other worlds unsupervised and had a scheduling conflict.
Stella's bringing a smattering of people including Alice, Anna, Sandy, Libby, Bridget, her college roommate Janine, and Lazarus.
Tab is bringing Aelise (but not Kers) and Luhan.
Etty is bringing only Nona.
Aether, likewise, brings no one but Celo.
Pattern comes with Ripper, Slipstick, Queenie, and Ghosty.
Aegis is accompanied by her four-bodied boyfriend, Merryweather, Whitlock, and Howlett.
Aurora comes with Brilliance, Lexi with her Device Persica, Agent Honey with her Device Adularia, and Beth.
Rose brings her husband and three children and her former apprentice, Luc.
Angela brings her husband, her four children, several of her friends, and some of those friends' children and grandchildren with and without wings. Keziah also brings a friend.
Juliet shows up with Soph, Minus, Red, Giles, James, Virginia, Minnie, Ike, and Val.
Cam brings Jellybean and Tilly and stops there.
And from unBelled worlds hail additional Sherlocks and Tonies, Darcy, Matilda, Pepper, and Eights.

Cam (having bidden Ike an extremely friendly goodbye) is currently talking to the Griffins about what they feel like the limits of their ingotry might be. They don't know much.

A pair of alts wanders by, arms around each other's waists, dressed in similar and similarly rumpled dark-jeans-and-tight-shirt outfits. One has a pied kingfisher perched on his shoulder.

Cam double-takes at them. The Griffins, who are already bored with technical questions about de-gooking, escape while he isn't paying attention.
"Hi," he remarks. He takes in the kingfisher, glances at the nametags, produces and birdifies Grace to sit on his shoulder out of courtesy to the Alethian. "You must be Ripper and Keth."

Cam stands open for speculation. He spreads his arms and takes a step forward. And regards them openly, the one and then the other, like he's going to be giving an extremely sexy presentation later on their point-by-point similarities and minor differences.
Grace doesn't say a word, but she does laugh softly and put a wing over the smaller bird.

Nope, catching Ripper by the wrist and kissing from there to his elbow and back up again is not very much like complaining at all.

Tasty boys are fantastic! Cam goes ahead and completes the sweetness trifecta, although he has decided to be kiwi-flavored instead.
(That'll be fun to surprise Jellybean with later.)
Grace laughs from where she's sitting with Hecate.

Well, now Ripper is just going to have to go through everything he knows about where to kiss Bells, and see which parts are the same and which are different.
It might take a while. Luckily, he has Keth to help!

They have some other ideas about what to do with a squirmy Cam, too. Perhaps those will also be positively received.
