The door simply opens and shuts, letting a young woman, primly dressed, enter. The business jacket and modest skirt are both navy blue, with a school crest blazoned on the lapel. Her hair is pulled back into a neat twist- but no, no glasses. The lady can see well enough without any such thing, thank you.

With an exceedingly faint shrug, she starts over toward the bar.

A simple shrug in acknowledgement- she won't deny that, but nor would it do to say anything upon it, after all this time. Athena tilts her glass of wine, studying the light through the glass and liquid, then looks back over to Melpomene.

"Is there another name you prefer here, that I should be calling you by?"
