✨ MHA #2: Super Starlight Party! - Saturday Evening [04/17]. ✨

So, the whole space part of Summer's plan for Annie's party didn't exactly pan out the way she was hoping. Part of her conversation with Lucifer on Wednesday had turned out to be somewhat prophetic, as one for her choices for location had conveniently decided to start a galactic civil war with their moon colonies, and the other place, apparently, didn't even exist anymore. The best guess was that it somehow involved Cromulans, which meant that planet was pretty much space dust now, which meant that Summer could pretty much kiss her deposit on that venue good-bye.

Which was fine! If she couldn't still pull together a more terrestrial party at the last minute, then she truly should just hang up her party crown now and retire in shame. So emails and texts went out, the gnomes at Portalocity would hopefully cooperate in sharing the news with anyone who showed up expecting to head elsewhere, that the party was relocated. And Summer was going to just use her own place for the cause, but, really, through the ensuing chain of events in preparation that morning, she remembered that Diego's apartment was pretty much literally right across the hall and easily twice as large.

So Diego's apartment it was!

Honestly, as boyfriend, it was literally the least he could do.

But because it was a little last minute and Summer didn't have the benefit of foisting at least half the cleaning duties on an NPC bartender like she could at Caritas, the decorations were a bit more...restrained. Oh, sure, there was still going to be glitter everywhere and every corner that Summer had access to was decked out in stars, but the mood was much different, trying to go for something a little more elegent in mood, with starlights draped out on the balcony, draped over doors, and projected over the walls and ceiling.

Look, if they couldn't make it out to space due to galactic conflict and super harsh critics with planet-exploding capabilities, they could at least try to bring the space to them.

[[ Please, please, please feel free to mod getting notifs on the big bash, apartment modded with gracious persmission, please wait for the OCD is up, party on, dudes ]]

“Is there a B-Team?” Liam wondered. “If all of your team was occupied with something if another problem came up?”

"There's the regional heroes," Annie told him, "like me and my old team -- I was on a teenage team right out of high school, back in Iowa -- and then there's Payback, which is totally the Avengers B-team, but they're primarily on the west coast so they'd kinda have to book it, depending on where the problem was."

“Right, no Portals,” Liam realized, shaking his head.

"Some of us can fly, though," Annie offered. "And Homelander -- he's like, my new boss, sort of -- actually produces a sonic boom when he takes off because he's so fast. So, like, if we need to get somewhere fast, he could at least get there pretty quick and take someone with him."

It was usually Queen Maeve, which honestly led to a lot of Homelander and Maeve being photographed floating in the air together, with her held up against his side, and accompanying headlines wondering if they were back together (or if they'd ever broken up to begin with?)
firstofitskind: (hmmm)

“Doesn’t sound too comfortable for the passenger,” Liam said. “But then, emergency. Comfort’s hopefully the least of anyone’s concerns.”
defenderofdesmoines: (annie - talking up at you)

"Oh, probably not." Given that Annie couldn't handle a helicopter ride, she would probably not do well as Homelander's companion, no. (It boded even less well for any future Five-related teleportation.) "I think there's, like, planes and stuff, too. Oh, and there's A-Train." She made a little face. "He's super fast. Like, that's his power, he runs fast. So I suppose he could respond quickly, too."
