[At the supper and party, Rinku is easy to find buzzing around the hall. She'll check people's game successes and hand out candy from the bag she's carrying, and also chat up everyone she sees.]

Happy New Year! You guys are all doing great at these! How's the party?

[It's a wonder she manages time to eat, but she does, with a plate piled high that she's inhaling in between conversation with others at the same table.]

How do you like the food? Is there anything we missed? [monch]

[Rinku's on all cylinders during the concert, so afterwards, outside during the fireworks, she stands around outside the theatre and just watches them go. Even she gets tired sometimes, though she's smiling even so.]

I hope this year's a lot happier... No, it's definitely gonna be!
