I'm afraid that, with my wife remaining at home in Bellcius, I lack a Plus One for the upcoming banquet! Are there any fine, eligible ladies (young or otherwise) who would be willing to tolerate this doddering old man for an evening?

...with all respect, sir, last I checked a date wasn't required for the banquet.

[generaltroll]

Nonsense, nonsense, young one! To attend such an illustrious event unaccompanied would be a terrible shame, don't you agree?

[namcuius]

Perhaps, but there will be many who will be there 'unaccompanied', as you have put it. It will not be a terrible loss.

[generaltroll]

...oh dear, Young Master. Don't tell me that you've been having difficulty finding a date for yourself as well!

[researcherlucas]

Are you sure that you should be looking for a date with your wife at home, sir?

[generaltroll]

I hope you're not implying that I would do anything...untowards, young man! No, this is a simple, harmless social engagement.

[researcherlucas]

In that case, then, I apologize.

[sockcapsoldier]

We're suppose to have a date for this thing, sir?

[generaltroll]

Have you ever been to a fancy party where you weren't?

[sockcapsoldier]

Never really been to one in general.

[myworknotme]

I will be unattended. You may be my escort, if no one else offers.

[generaltroll]

Capital! I look forward to accompanying you, my dear!
