Leilan, only grilling because Hestoni had left the scene temporarily, saved the most darkened burgers from turning black without adding a new meat pile to the barbecue - no need to work your ass off in this heat when your dad was around to do it for you - and turned back to the one who had invited him. "Sure!" With a broad grin, he joined the group, recognizing Cagney as one of Brennen's (son, grandson, nephew, he didn't really follow), but perhaps he had to re-introduce himself in the mass of people. "Leilan. So, you guys found something fun to do yet?" he asks. Another girl added herself to the group of now four young people about to be intoxicated; she passed along vodka - good stuff actually - and shot glasses. Pah, like they needed those. Still, the evening had barely started, so perhaps it was a good idea to just be civil about it for starters and drink from the tiny glasses like the adults did.
His sister, Volcan (mother would endlessly show pictures of family after all when he was around to see them) had dressed up a bit too openly for his taste, but perhaps she was here just to make a mess of most the guys' heads (if they weren't related - like Cagney for instance). The vodka girl turned out to be his cousin Xiah, by Errant. The black-and-silver haired young man had never seen his uncle, just heard of him. A magician, or something like that, so it wasn't a surprise that a whole vodka bottle had previously fitted inside Xiah's clutch. She was off already though, so he downed his glass and refilled Cagney and Volcan while they had to wait for the girl (if she was going to return any time soon that was).
He looks around the garden with an estimating glance, wondering what everyone is up to - and who to pull a prank on, of course. His mother had forbidden him a certain room, so perhaps that was one to start with.

Two things I know I can make: pretty kids, and people mad.
