Hotel Fundraiser

A transient event space inside a hotel where politics and private fatigue collide: folding chairs and a cleared buffet line give way to the charged residue of donors, pollsters, and tired staff. Conversation frays into polite obligation; last‑minute calls and hurried goodbyes echo down carpeted corridors. The room functions as both a public duty and a personal test—attendance signals loyalty and stamina, while its aftermath leaves characters stranded in hotel hallways, limousines, and hotel rooms, recalibrating choices against exhaustion and opportunity.
