"Take a look at her," the first person says. "I'm not going to try to feed her alcohol, I want to introduce her to the Countess, because he--heck if I know what to do with a kid with wings."
"...I'll see if I can fetch her," the door person says.
He disappears, and after a few minutes comes back with a woman dressed in black and red and lace.
"I ran across a random kid with wings. You're the person weird shi--stuff happens to, I figured you could deal with it."
"You could stand to be a little more sensitive about it," the apparent Countess chides. "Hi, kiddo, do you know where your parents are?"
