✨ 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.

Welcome to a partnership, Steven!

Danny smirked and looked away. "You'll enjoy it."

"I will not," Steve said.

"That's not the same thing at all," Steve told him.

"Just be glad she didn't give you homework, babe," Danny replied dryly. Because it would happen. Oh, it would happen.
grenadesandohana: (pos: huh)

Re: Arrive & Mingle - Super Starlight Party - 04/17 ✨.

[personal profile] grenadesandohana 2021-04-18 05:21 pm (UTC)(link)
"She wouldn't do that!" Steve said, looking shocked. "What kind of homework could there even be?"
hatesparadise: (this is bad)

"Journaling, suggested reading... could be an activity," Danny replied. "Why do you think I do the listing of the Yankees thing? Had to come up with an activity to focus on in high stress situations so I don't just--"

He gestured vaguely at his own temple.

"--fizz out."

He meant hyperventilate or something equally embarrassing.

Steve was now shoving aside all of those not-so-fun memories of being stuck in a collapsed garage.

"That worked really well, Danno."
hatesparadise: (just bros being bros)

"That kinda homework," Danny replied, meeting Steve's gaze.
grenadesandohana: (neg: wait what)

Re: Arrive & Mingle - Super Starlight Party - 04/17 ✨.

[personal profile] grenadesandohana 2021-04-18 06:19 pm (UTC)(link)
"I know how to do that already," Steve said. "Not with sports stats, though."

Name, rank, serial number. Totally normal.
hatesparadise: (let me explain it again)

Re: Arrive & Mingle - Super Starlight Party - 04/17 ✨.

[personal profile] hatesparadise 2021-04-18 06:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh yeah, not concerning at all.

"That's a sort of specific to my stuff example. There might be other things for you," Danny suggested. "Or us things, I guess."
grenadesandohana: (mcdanno: arguing)

Re: Arrive & Mingle - Super Starlight Party - 04/17 ✨.

[personal profile] grenadesandohana 2021-04-18 07:19 pm (UTC)(link)
"Us things?" Steve replied a little trepidatiously.

"It's couple's therapy. It's gonna address our relationship." He meant in the professional capacity.

"I still don't see why that's the governor's business," Steve huffed.

"Politics," Danny replied. "It's better than the alternative."

"Which would be what?" Steve asked.

"I don't know. Disbanding the unit?" Which was the worst case scenario.

Steve hissed in a breath like he'd been sucker punched. "That seems extreme for me just not playing along with a head shrinker."
hatesparadise: (let me explain it again)

Re: Arrive & Mingle - Super Starlight Party - 04/17 ✨.

[personal profile] hatesparadise 2021-04-18 08:28 pm (UTC)(link)
It was Danny, he couldn't help but always worry about that worst case scenario in most situations.

"It very much does," he agreed.
grenadesandohana: (mcdanno: staring)

Re: Arrive & Mingle - Super Starlight Party - 04/17 ✨.

[personal profile] grenadesandohana 2021-04-18 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
"I don't like that," Steve decided.
hatesparadise: (it's a spicy meatball)

Re: Arrive & Mingle - Super Starlight Party - 04/17 ✨.

[personal profile] hatesparadise 2021-04-18 10:56 pm (UTC)(link)
"None of us would like that," Danny assured him.
grenadesandohana: (neu: how so pretty)

Steve took a very deep drink from his beer and took a step closer to Danny.

No reason. Really. He definitely wasn't feeling exposed.
hatesparadise: (in terrifying sync)

Re: Arrive & Mingle - Super Starlight Party - 04/17 ✨.

[personal profile] hatesparadise 2021-04-19 12:23 am (UTC)(link)
Did some of Danny's insomnia anxiety feature that scenario? Oh, definitely.

But that wasn't the reason why Danny opened up his posture to make it easier for Steve to do just that.

Steve shoulder knocked against Danny's. "I won't let that happen."

Even if it meant, ugh, therapy homework.

"Doin' my best to keep it from happening too," Danny said with a twitch of a smile. Nothing weird at all about making sure to keep your work partner in your life long past the work part was done with.
