Fresh off his internship and his year abroad, Dean was settling into work at the ministry quite. It wasn't hard to get adjusted to when languages were what he was good at and now that he did them for work, it only made things easier. Tonight's party was pretty nondescript, a little boring, though he'd found a few people here and there to keep his interest, otherwise he would have left a while ago. Dean hardly ever felt the pressure to stay in one place too long, he had plenty of other options this evening, but was in no real rush whatsoever.
Currently he was deeply engaged in a discussion on Greek Mythology and the creatures within, in Greek, with a bloke from Santorini. Dean had visited on his travels and had been charmed by the sea of white and blue between the buildings and Mediterranean, the people and the food. It would be a frequent visit in his future, when time allowed, he was sure. Being just twenty at this point left a lot of room in his future for such things, or so he hoped.
The gent excused himself and Dean found himself another whiskey when a newly familiar face came back into view. Their conversations this evening had been delightfully unexpected and subtly flirtatious on his end, though Dean was still sort of learning the ins and outs of finding other men like himself out there. He was loathe to make a mistake, for it could be disastrous. "Haven't had trouble staying up in a long time." He quipped with a smirk. It was true, Dean was a night owl and functioned quite well on little sleep. It was at nighttime that all of the interesting things happened anyway and he had never liked missing out. "What was it you would suggest though, if I did?" His curiosity was piqued, that was sure.
