It was the day of the big party that WR had an invite too from their race. It would be happening outside of a beach house on the opposite end of the beach that most of the Meta's had been seen on. A large crowd of people were already there dancing to loud obnoxious music and drinking.

WR strolled up to the scene in a casual vehicle that no one would recognize. They left it across the street from public access so nobody could block them on their way out, if it came down to it. They weren't really sure what to expect from this event, but they tried to prepare for every possible outcome.
They themself were dressed casually, but in an inconspicuous way. They wore their standard red and black and Dragon jacket, and their hair was dressed in even more, brighter highlights.
Having arrived a few minutes early, they stood adjacent to the largest crowd, staring off into the ocean. They weren't really sure what to do from here, but the important thing was that they were there.

As the crowd got closer to the entrance of the beach house he would not men checking people for invitations. Hopefully that hadn't forgotten theirs...

WR's invitation was sticking out of their pocket slightly, offering easy access to them if anyone asked for it. They continued to stand around patiently, waiting for some sort of instruction or acknowledgment.

WR would make it to the front of the line where two stereotypical bouncer types would be standing.
"Invite."
On would say in a deep gravely voice.

WR's eyes briefly darted between the bouncers as they approached, and they gave a slight shrug of their shoulders as they plucked the invitation out of their pocket. They held it out to the one that spoke, loosely between two fingers.

The bouncer took a look at it and his eyebrow would raise.
"VIP."
He would say to the second who would nod and say something into the radio while the first would hand back WR's invitation.
"Boss is expecting you. Inside, upstairs, on the right. Don't deviate."
As soon as he was finished speaking the second bouncer would nod to the first.
"Proceed."
He would say as the two men moved to let WR pass.

WR pocketed the invitation and nodded between the two.
"Thank you gentlemen,"
They shoved their hands into their pockets and headed inside the building, waddling up the stairs to the room as instructed. They took a moment to briefly observe everything they passed by.

As WR was going up the stairs they would feel eyes watching them. The feeling was so heavy and dark there was no mistaking it as a paranoid thought, someone was watching them. As WR scanned the room they would see the Suspicious Man staring at them with a wicked smile on his face and a fruity drink with an umbrella in his hand. He would wink at WR just before they crossed the stairway thresh hold cutting off their sight of him.

WR shivered at the feeling, swiveling their head wildly. When they caught sight of them, the shivering rippled down their bod, but they shook it off as he was out of view again.
This place was weird as fuck. What the hell was Izzy getting them into?

WR stopped just outside the doors and contemplated their next move. They decided it best to wait until they were addressed, but they stood close enough to the door to hopefully be within earshot of the conversation inside.
They were still a few minutes early...

"-ho is this mysterious driver?"
A voice would ask.
"I'm not sure I hadn't ever met them before. They said their name is WR."
The familiar voice of Joshua would respond.
"Haven't met them once? Where did they come from?"
The first voice asked.
"I'm not sure, sir, but the Ghost and the Hound vouched for them..."
WR would recognize the third voice as belonging to the man with the clipboard from the racing night.

WR's ears perked at the conversation about them. They had arrived at the perfect time.
They continued to listen in, inconspicuously.

"Well I for one don't think we need some rando off the street."
A fourth voice would say seemingly with indifference.
"I for one, think that an extra driver, especially one as good as you're suggesting, Joshua, would be a great asset no matter the job."
A fifth would say.
