MHA #8; Saturday Evening [01/13] - Stark's Birthday Party!

There had been a handful of oh-so-handwavey flyers popped into the most obvious spots, but Summer was relying heavily on the age-old method of massive group texting (and general word of mouth) to let everyone know about Stark's birthday party tonight at his apartment because it really was just going to be a super chill, lowkey, casual sort of fling this time around.

She'd spent the majority of her prep work in splashing the apartment with decorations (blue and gold and black again) and bmaking a variety of different jello shots in pie and cupcake and other dessert-like forms, so, needless to say, she definitely ordered out for the the cupcakes themselves.

Other snacks and drinks were also available and moddable, and there was also a very moddable but totally curated, for real, music playlist, and she'd even dusted off the karaoke machine from the GxG birthday party years ago and dragged that up, just in case anyone was feeling up to getting that going.

Definitely not exactly her best, most extravagant party, but, hey, not all parties could (or even should!) be epic. Sometimes, they could just be kind of quiet and cozy with a lot of cupcakes. Which just suited the birthday guy better anyway, really.

[[ open party is open! as always, feel free to mod having gotten a text, seen a flier, been told by Summers or squirrels or ghosts of parties past or just swing by to borrow a cup of sugar, i don't care, I'm not your boss ]]

The squirrels were very nosy and it was a small island.

"I'm glad it's a good new. Are congratulations the right thing to say? I've never lived with anyone either, not like that, but it seems...it seems like it would be a very good thing."

"I honestly don't know, but several people have said congratulations to me, so I guess it is?" Nell smiled and shook her head a little. "I've never done this before. I mean, when I was married it was a completely different thing. And certainly nothing to be congratulated for. So, thank you. And yes, it's a very good thing as far as I'm concerned, and hopefully as far as Gladio is concerned."

"I don't know either. So...congratulations. I hope you'll both be happy."

He thought they would be. There was no reason to think otherwise.

"Have you had a cupcake?"

"I think we will be," Nell said. "And thank you."

She looked over at all the food. "I haven't yet, not," she admitted, " but they look delicious."
stykera: (ok)

"You should have some food," Stark urged. "Or jello. Or both. Or there are real drinks as well. But the cupcakes are very good."

"I will," Nell said. "I'm not much of a drinker, but the food does look delicious and I'll be sure to have a cupcake as well. Any there that you particularly like?"

"They're all good."

Yes, of course Stark had tried all the cupcakes.

"The one with coconut was different. Or the strawberry was very good."

"I do like strawberry," Nell said with a smile. "I'll have to give that one a try."
