ISLA
Isla is unfortunately late, but at least it's for a good reason, and she thinks she's gotten all the blood off herself before dressing and hurrying along to the Hanged Man. (It's not even for bloodlust reasons - she came across someone who had surfed into some very craggy rocks en route along the beach). But she's here now, flustered if not rosy cheeked, and offers a bright smile to Flora as she spots her across the bar.
Waving but not wanting to overwhelm the Doubletake with congratulations and well-wishes, Isla is content to wait her turn with something fruity and alcoholic (title of Remi's autobiography...?)
Collecting her cocktail from the bar - and oblivious to the Taliesins arrival given her lateness and their presence at/in the firepit, Isla settles at a table and gives herself a chance to take it all in. Socialisation will come, she's sure, but all in good time.
