[Astolfo hadn't a clue what was going on until the last minute. Had he known there was a party being prepared, he would have thrown himself into it, but him being who he was, he didn't realize anything was going on until it had been all done. Catching on that something was happening today would have required too much sense to pick up on. And him being him, he was more than happy to be surprised at the last minute by a party.
Astolfo was not one to turn down the chance to have fun. Despite all the victories and all the Servants, things in Chaldea were far too frequently stuffy and dramatic for his tastes. Everyone needed a chance to let loose, even if dozens of Servants letting loose was probably an awful idea in practice.
Entering the dining hall, Astolfo bounced around in excitement. He was not excited for anything in particular. His usual bubbliness was turned up to eleven at the thought of having fun, even if he hadn't a clue what was going to go on tonight. Maybe there would be a food fight or drunken Servant Twister or strip poker or something.
His excitement was so great that he was initially overwhelmed by the question of what to do now that he was here. He could start something, but it was far too early to make a mess or strip. He could get something to eat or hassle any number of dozens of Servants or try to steal as much of Master's attention away that he could or any number of things. Sometimes being impulsive wasn't enough to make a decision.
Thankfully, the moment he saw Marie alone at a table, his decision was made. Seeing someone, anyone alone would be enough to catch his attention, but it being Marie was like seeing a unicorn. And, being a Paladin, it was only appropriate for him to say hello to a queen of France, even if that wasn't the logic he was using. Astolfo skipped over and threw his arms in the air in excitement.]
Marie! It's you! Was this really all your idea? For real?
[Astolfo hopped from one foot to the other, like his excitement was going to make him explode at any moment if he didn't work some of it off.]
