Marius is thrilled to receive Grantaire's invitation. It's been quite some time since all of them from their time in Paris have gathered together like this; as grateful as Marius is to all of the other friends he's made in Darrow, he still appreciates having a chance to bond together with people from home. People who understand what they've left behind and what they've all lost.
But he isn't here to dwell on the past; he's here to celebrate.
And to desperately hope that none of his friends, least of all, Courfeyrac, found out about the unfortunate cat accident at that strange party the other week.
He shows up at Grantaire's with a bottle of wine; one of the rarer, locally made vintages he'd had a coworker help pick out. In his other hand, he carries a plate of delicious pastries from the only decent bakery that even comes close to the magnificence of the ones back home.
He manages to knock with his elbow, and he makes his way inside with relative ease, without spilling or dropping anything.

"Joyeux Noel," he says by way of greeting.
