Something's wrong when you regret

When; Saturday 16 Feb, evening

Rating; PG? Maybe PG13 for language

Characters; Charles has invited the following:
  • Luke
  • David Allard
  • Astrid Allard
  • Tommy Shepherd
  • Billy Kaplan
  • Darwin
  • Alex Summers
  • Jocelyn Lassiter
  • Bobby Lassiter
  • Ginny Weasley

By virtue of living on the Floor of Mutants in this building, Raven Xavier and Sean Cassidy are expected to be there. Or wrangled into the cooking/cleaning crew, however one wants to take it.

Including Charles (the octomom-host) and Erik (the disgruntled bitchy head shark-chef) that brings the total guest list to 14.

Obviously if a guest brings another guest Charles won't make a fuss. This is all his fault, anyway.

Summary; MUTANT/MAGIC DINNER GATHERING (in Erik's one-bedroom apartment, whoops) Human to powered ratio? 3:11

Log; Charles managed to clear out the entire produce section of the first store he went to. Not to mention gaping holes in quite a few shelves (barring the freezer section, though Charles does stand there and stare at ingredient lists in building horror for a while). Naturally he somehow also manages to convince the store to loan him their delivery truck, as he proceeds to greatly diminish the shelves of at least one of the first store's competitors.

Hopefully there's someone around to help Charles bring all this food up. Hopefully they don't mind having their picture taken with the small camera Charles pulls out of his pocket, because that will happen if they mind or not. 

Charles' kitchen, seeing as how it's merely an extension of Erik's at this point, is definitely expected to be used in the cooking preparation - probably by Sean as Charles has been forbidden to assist (no one has TIME to throw a cookbook at his head is what this boils down to, and there aren't enough fire extinguishers around to cope with what may happen if he's rushed otherwise). The bulk of the dinner party will be occurring in Erik's apartment, where the bedroom door is welded shut without a visible seam. Charles' apartment door is open, though by the time things are underway there is a distinct lack of furniture - apparently it all migrated next door.

Barring Sean's apartment, all the other doors on the floor are open with keys in the lock with yellow, blue, or magenta tags labeling the apartment number. No one else lives on this particular level of this particular apartment building, imagine that? Not a single neighbor in sight, how useful.

Charles will say hello to each and every one of you and be the consummate host. Contrary to how it may seem, he's never actually THROWN a party before. Add that to the knowledge that six of the invited attendees won't be around come Monday and Charles will know it the moment they leave, he really wants this to go well. 

Eight mutants. One witch. One god. One Astrid. The Lassiters and David as the partridge in the pear tree only humans on the entire floor.

What about this party could possibly NOT be amazing?



[ooc: HERE THERE BE NO TAGGING ORDER. Just go for it, whatever it happens to be, and have fun! For reference: Erik's apartment is full of metal, complete with a very modern kitchen (though some of the seating and small tables have been liberated from Charles' apartment, and this is very clear.) However in case you were worried your character would be alighting on only metal seating do not fear! There is a low, long black couch that is more than comfortable.

The kitchen and dining room area are connected by large archways, collectively acting as one large room. The bathroom and bedroom have actual doorways - the latter of which is practically impassible as Erik has sealed the door.

What's your name? Mine's Bobby Lassiter.
team_sociopath: (][oh and by the way)

[Thanks worked just fine, honestly. It's just a thing he does.]

Got it,

[he nods, with maybe a hint of a smile, and heads to put it down. At normal speed, of course.]

Need a hand with anything else?
horseish: (persed lips)

[Alone until a very small person sidles up next to you holding a cracker. She's hiding from her sister, hush.]
infernoandhearth: (Smile)

but not too friendly

"I brought--" begins Luke, and then cheerfully amends it to, "We brought a jelly." He is holding said jelly on a plate with a glass bowl upended over it, standing just back out of the area which constitutes the kitchen. "We made it. Is there room in the refrigerator?"
lionesque: (patronizing)

[personal profile] lionesque 2013-02-17 09:05 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm fine thank you.

[Still slightly in shock from that, give her a minute.]
infernoandhearth: (Happy)

[personal profile] infernoandhearth 2013-02-17 09:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[Luke thrusts out his hand at this point, one of his charming smiles on his face.]

Oh, likewise. Are you here for the day, or for longer?
team_sociopath: (][look over there!)

[personal profile] team_sociopath 2013-02-17 09:08 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yup, he recognizes that look.]

Not used to this kinda thing, huh?

[Chilling with mutants. She must be new here. Or just visiting, he'd guess.]
lionesque: (beautiful)

[personal profile] lionesque 2013-02-17 09:08 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm told it's than likely to not last past the weekend. My sister is a more permanent resident.

[ Alex is feeling no less out of place than Erik, really — and sooner rather than later he discovers the balcony and the relative quiet of it, so he's out there with a glass of punch that he's technically too young to drink, shoulders tense. ]

[personal profile] violenthearted 2013-02-17 09:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[Erik can get with hiding, it's cool.]

Miss Lassiter. [He mimes tipping an invisible hat, which, you know, is a pretty charming move for an revenge-ridden sea creature skulking around in his own place.]
lionesque: (fond)

[personal profile] lionesque 2013-02-17 09:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[Well her husband can turn into a horse so it's not entirely out there.]

It's all rather a lot to take in at once.
horseish: (loved)

[personal profile] horseish 2013-02-17 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Pleased to meet you. Did you have the cracker things, they're very good.
horseish: (freckles)

[personal profile] horseish 2013-02-17 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
[She nods back companionably and finishes her cracker.]

[personal profile] wreakings 2013-02-17 09:13 pm (UTC)(link)
I had the cracker things. [ In fact, he's had a little of everything. He's still getting used to being able to eat as much as he wants of whatever he wants rather than prison food. ]
horseish: (well duh)

[personal profile] horseish 2013-02-17 09:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Why are you in a bad mood?
wreakings: (☢ e n e r g y)

[personal profile] wreakings 2013-02-17 09:16 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not. [ There's just too many people. What if he loses control? ]

That Luke and David are a we has been brought - gently - to Erik's attention, and Luke's ability to comfortably refer to them that way does--something to a place he can't identify below his ribs. But that's neither here nor there, so he inspects this uh, thing, chin tilted down. He has seen them before, yes, but mostly he just doesn't understand the purpose of gelatin in food at all.

"I can take it," he inclines his head, because he'd rather rearrange the food in there his own self than let anyone else do it. It's only in crossing in long strides to the kitchen proper that like, tact or normal human conversation occurs to him: "That was kind of you, we seem to be feeding a small army."

And don't think Erik doesn't think of the gathered assembly as exactly that, an army.
horseish: (making fun of you)

[personal profile] horseish 2013-02-17 09:19 pm (UTC)(link)
You seem like you are.
wreakings: (☢ t r y)

[personal profile] wreakings 2013-02-17 09:20 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not, though. [ Deep breaths, Summers. ]
infernoandhearth: (Chat)

[personal profile] infernoandhearth 2013-02-17 09:21 pm (UTC)(link)
No, I suppose I've not seen it to. I'm sure she appreciates your visit, though.

Astrid/Frjalsa

[personal profile] meansfree 2013-02-17 09:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[Frjalsa arrives along with her dads, going by her middle name for the time being as it's easier to pronounce. She hasn't brought anything but her smile, but she's more than happy to help light the candles.]
evolv: (to destroy the earth)

Darwin

[personal profile] evolv 2013-02-17 09:24 pm (UTC)(link)
[Wanting to help in the kitchen but having no culinary skills whatsoever, Darwin will be washing dishes.]
lionesque: (fond)

[personal profile] lionesque 2013-02-17 09:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Probably not as much as I have.
evolv: (that crushing)

Alex

[personal profile] evolv 2013-02-17 09:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[Darwin sees you there, looking uncomfortable. He walks up behind Alex and starts rubbing his shoulders.]

Loosen up, man, it's just dinner.
