[ In truth, Katherine could take or leave anything from America in the twentieth century. Fashion switches and adapts so smoothly, and she always gets the best of the best, but otherwise? The 1950s has little appeal to her. Ironically, more than the one their little town mirrors, though.

Arriving arm in arm with Damon, she won't be found dancing unless someone asks her. Her dress is chosen with the explicit purpose of fitting the person of Katherine Salvatore, dear wife to Damon, cute elements tossed in with a sexy edge she can't not include. Not dancing doesn't equate to her painting the picture of being a wallflower so much as her socializing with all of the right faces and names, which yes in this case, there happens to be a few of those around. If not for how intent they've all been on keeping up appearances, she might've found surprise in Damon still going with her on invite from Magnus and Alec. How tacky it would be if they didn't appear, and if they didn't bring their all.

Katherine enjoys any number of drinks through the night, stepping out of the comfort zone of straight bourbon vampires simply love. At an event, she'd opt for wine or champagne too, but this is a special celebration! She orders different mixes, not touching any of the food or the milkshakes: she can be adventurous, but food's never really done it for her.

Naturally, she keeps tabs on those closest to her, to her interests. Those who happen to reside under her own roof, even if one of them's taken a brief (mental health break?) hiatus from that which is sure to be her home there in the Pines. Katherine watches Damon from afar, no doubt he can tell, slipping in at convienient times. They are the sort of couple who love to socialize together, after all! Her eyes linger and hope to meet, to hold, Stefan's more than once: the past has a way of repeating itself, and she can't hide the affection in her gaze. Not that she ever has before, but especially not after where they've traversed back to, no matter the catalyst. Finally, she watches for Elena. It's natural to look out for your younger sister at a party too, isn't it? She feels herself drawn to doing so, more than just out of wanting to be nosy, to keep memos on the girl who she doesn't actively hate in every moment due to damn fake memories. Other friends, Nyx if he makes an appearance, are greeted with a warm smile, conversation.

Much like any party Katherine attends, she's there to scope out, to socialize, to make that all important appearance. At this one, one with music that's really not so bad? She doesn't even have any devious plan or ulterior motive. Huh. Is she slipping, or just taking advantage of cultivating the family the town's gifted her with? ]
