ADAM'S PARTY

[gremlinctrouble]

The house was set as she had instructed the mogs to do. The backyard was completely void of any undead life, replaced by tables, chairs, and the large pool of chocolate pudding warded off for after sundown events. Inside the estate were the usual decorations Anna normally had; war golems, family paintings, glowing orbs of doom... The living room,

In Anna's hand, a small note saying "I rather doubt I'd be welcome to this one, so I'll stay out. Please do give the lad My present, it should be arriving on the nearest backyard table now. Lord Zhilbar"

In the undead-free backyard, a reasonably formidable (3-foot diameter) pie materialized, still warm from the actual baking...

Anna sighs, the note read, eyes canting to the backyard. She facepalms briskly, a mog stopping to join her in gazing out the window.

"Dos, there's a three foot wide pie in my back yard... Please, go put it in the fridge for Mr. Douglas..."

The mog nodded and bowed, heading off to do as told.

[zhilbar]

A final note appears:

"Just be glad it was ONLY three feet wide."

The car was delivered by messenger, the kid pulling a foldable scooter out of the backseat and jetting away before anyone could say anything.

On the dash lay a note, done in calligraphy.

My darling Adam-

Sorry I couldn't make it. I know business sucks but I'm sure you understand. It is how being an owner goes. I hope this makes up for it all.

My memories tonight are of you when you were young. And you told me of this car.

All my love. Forever -

Emma

[victoria_sage]

*Victoria slinks in, as she usually does, and immediantly begins searching around for the food. She has a mysterious Box in her hands. It is suspicious and wrapped in the comics section of a newspaper*

[courtneycrumrin]

*drags herself in a little sleepily and waves at Anna*

((...and then has to shut down the computer because of a large storm approaching. Hopefully it'll be a short one and I'll be right back.))

[gremlinctrouble]

*waves with a small smile*

((Eep. Take care of yourselves first please.))

[courtneycrumrin]

*pauses where she is to watch a mog scurry past* Oh my god, they are cute.
((I'm cool. Storm's over now.))

[gremlinctrouble]
