🎉 : do they enjoy social events, or endure them? (To Jack Horner, Ruber, Hades and Frollo)

Jack would kind of enjoy social events, but in a grandiose, self-centered way. He is a loud, very entitled man that is also desperate for recognition. If there are opportunities for him to flaunt his wealth, or his power, or even his artifacts he collects, he'll do it. He doesn't value the aspect socializing or having to at events because he neither values people (unless they are useful to him) nor emotional connection (low empathy/sociopathic tendancies). If he's not the center of attention, he'll probably be miserable or downright irritated.
Ruber would mostly endure social events unless they are actually useful to him. AKA, they align with his values or assist in his ambitions. Most times, he views people and situations as tools or obstacles, and parties are no exception. Something where he could get an upper hand in or manipulate people would work out the best in his favor. He wouldn't truly enjoy mingling or talking with others in a genuine way, he's too goal-oriented. (in his prior verse when he's a knight at the Round Table, the emotions/goals are lessened, but he's still strategic in a way)
Hades (surprisingly) is the most sociable out of the others here, and would absolutely enjoy social events. He is witty, fast-talking, and really good at reading people. He is also performative in a way, even going so far as to crack jokes, etc. and genuinely likes interacting with people (even when manipulating them). However, his sociability has limits. His short temper is one, being around excessive formality is another. If the gathering was lively and not full of stuffy, boring people (looking at you, Olympus), he'd thrive at parties.
Frollo endures social events, heavily. Borderline hates them due to how chaotic and suspicious they can get. The Feast of Fools is a primary example, for Frollo is actively disgusted by it. The only reason he goes is due to obligation/a sense of duty. A lively party would make him more uncomfortable than anything else, and he would tolerate events where decorum and hierarchy are strictly maintained and in order (religious ceremonies, judicial/governmental gatherings, etc.).
So it would be: Hades, Jack, Ruber, Frollo from most to least willing to party...
