Janet waves to Veronica one her way to meet up with her family. "Hey, Veronica," she says. "It's been a while. How's it going?"

"Janet!" Veronica calls, relieved to have a distraction from her dad's concerns.

"This is my dad, Keith Mars. Dad, this is Janet."

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Mars," says Janet, holding out her hand and looking just like a normal, average teenage girl in jeans and a t-shirt. "Veronica's great. It's nice to meet her dad."

"And it's nice to meet you, Janet," he says, shaking her hand, relieved that this one doesn't appear to be 'special'. "It's nice to meet any friend of my daughter."

"I hope the trip to get here wasn't too bad," says Janet. "My uncle flew in from DC, so he's not too far away." She gestures over at a balding man in his 50's.

"My flight from California was long, but uneventful. Thanks for asking," Keith replied nodding to the man Janet indicated.

"You're welcome," says Janet. "I'm sorry, but I really have to catch up to everyone else. I hope I see you again this weekend!"

Veronica gives Janet a grateful smile.

Janet flashes a quick grin at Veronica. It's a very normal grin.

OOC: Hee! Janet looks normal for once! Yay!

Angelus, dressed up in a respectable suit (but no tie) is mingling with the crowd, trying to get a lay of the land, and keeping his eyes out for those he knows. When his eyes happen to meet Veronica's at one point he gives her a smile and nod of greeting.

Veronica smiles and waves. She half hopes Angelus will come over so her dad can meet him and see that he's not evil and she half hopes he won't so her dad can't embarrass her.

Not having spotted Darla yet, Angelus has a moment to spare to come over and say hi. He makes his way through the crowd to join her.

"Glad I don't have to organize this," he says.

"Me too," she says.

"Oh, um, this is my dad, Keith Mars. Dad, this is Angelus."

Angelus was instantly the picture of a fine and upstanding young man. He held his hand out to shake. "Pleasure to meet you, sir. You must be very proud of your daughter."

Very aware that this was the vampire Veronica had told him about, Keith firmly shook his offered hand. "I am very proud of Veronica. It's nice to meet you Angelus." There's a smile on his face, but it's not entirely convincing.

"Thank you, sir," Angelus's handshake was firm without being too firm, though his skin was far too cold to resemble anything human. "Veronica's been so kind to me during my time here at Fandom High. And I'm not just talking about the way she makes it such a joy for me to work at the school paper."
