[OPEN, MINGLE] 'cause not all who wander are lookin' for the exit

Who: Taako, Lup, perhaps you-- invited or not?
What: Taako's been trying to think of a good way to have a party now that ice hell is over, and the disappearance of his sister's husband and his brother in law sounds like as good a time as any to start denying bad feelings and cheering up his goddamn twin.
Where: Around Horny House, aka Imported House 5-1
When: April 11th
Warnings: Alcohol, food, some stupidity most likely.

The night of the 10th, anyone who's friends Taako or Lup-- especially if you're friends with Lup-- will get a text from Taako. It reads:

hey
come over tomorrow at noon
i took down a totally massive animal and im having a barbecue
also bring a gift for lup
dont tell her dont ask questions dont care what it is just do it
your prize is a significant amount of roasted whateverthefuck that i have tested to be sure it will not kill you
also if you dont show up im going to come get you so see ya then


And sure enough, the next day, behind horny house is a large pit filled with rocks and... something or other spit roasted over it. Whatever it is happens to be very, very big, but you can probably see the smoke before you see the animal. Most of the tables in the house have been dragged out onto the lawn around it, covered in mismatched cups, containers of water and plates of fruit, and something lovingly labelled 'SPACE JUICE (CONTAINS ALCOHOL)' that is being served in a large punch bowl. It's bright blue and smells like lighter fluid, so it's pretty unlikely you needed to be warned that there's alcohol in it. One table simply has a sign that says 'PUT GIFTS HERE', which is pretty self explanatory. There also seems to be music coming from discernibly Somewhere, though it's completely unclear as to where-- seeing as the guy running it is magic, it might actually just be coming from the sun. None of that is especially important right now. What is important is this:

Everyone here is legally required to go care about Lup, or Taako's going to punch you in the head. And not even with magic- just with his little fists. So do it, punk.

OOC: This is a MINGLE LOG- please put up toplevels and tag around! While Taako had people he invited, it's pretty damn easy to see this going down, and if you play by the rules and say nice things to his very sad sister he won't kick you out. Have fun!!!

[ Maybe a little creepy, but no creepier than your average art college student going out on a cafe-sketching assignment!

Angus carefully goes through the book as if it's the sketchbook equivalent of the holy grail, pausing to take in the details of each drawing, and quietly going "Oh!" whenever he sees one of himself. No wonder The Director was in charge of recording their big journey, her sketches are just as accurate and full of life as her writing had been - at least, if the Voidfish broadcast had been any indication. ]


Wow, you weren't kidding. You even got the way Lup's ears perk up when she's happy!

[ This hasn't been especially fun, for a party. Lucretia can appreciate Taako's efforts, but she couldn't help feeling a little depressed, sitting around and all too aware of both Barry's absence and Lup's loneliness without him.

But watching Angus page delicately through the book, seeing the quiet delight on his face whenever he finds a sketch of himself, she can't help but smile, laughing lightly. ]


I've had good subjects.

[ Lup, in particular, is always happy to pose for a picture, even if the whole "keeping still" thing is sometimes beyond her capabilities. ]

[ Angus flips through a few more pages before he finally glances back up at Lucretia, eyes wide behind his big nerd glasses. ]

Did you ever do this at the Bureau, Ma'am? Like, with Avi and Brad and everyone else? Just for fun?

Occasionally, yes.

I was kept very busy, but it was a good way to relax, when I had the time.

[ When she made the time. Which is something she hadn't done nearly enough of, naturally. ]
