The being (whose name was Mittelleo, though few people knew it and it’s entirely beside the point) wasn’t even on the ground anymore. They had been, at one point. And then they weren’t. There was no in-between state either. They did not climb. They did not fly. They were simply on the ground and then they were on the ceiling.
No one seemed to be noticing. Though to be fair, people don’t usually make a habit of looking at ceilings at parties. Only a little girl in the corner was gaping up at them silently. They were playing solitaire. The cards were also sitting on the ceiling. Probably best not to think too hard about it.
