Isabelle takes the glass that Magnus hands her, for once not really caring what's in it. With Magnus it could be anything, but Isabelle takes a large sip without question. This party had seemed a good idea at the time, but Max keeps threatening to intrude around the edges, and she's trying desperately to keep her smile on. She needs to, for Billy. He's having a good time and she doesn't want to ruin that, not on his birthday.
"I hope no one expected anything less," she answers. There was probably every reason to suspect she wouldn't be able to put this party together, but Isabelle does not allow weakness where possible, especially when it comes to putting on a party. The only allowance she's given herself are the white mourning clothes, which she knows Magnus will see and understand, but knows he won't comment on, either.
