Lila had basically commandeered Astrid's birthday months ago, all but demanding that Astrid let her plan her party while... it was still Faye's birthday. By the time she is done decorating, it looks like Pintrest collided with Queen Regina and puked black and white Halloween drama all over the room. Glittery skulls, blood red candy apples, candles flickering in black lacquered candelabras. Is that raven real? Probably. Is that skeleton real?

Maybe. Y'all don't know what tricks this girl can do. Maybe Slenderman will show up.

The lights are dim and there is an entire table stacked with cupcakes and cookies and other assorted nibbles and hor d'oeuvres, shoved up against the bar where bottles of every kind of alcohol imaginable are just spread out willy nilly amongst mixers and juices. Bet your ass there is Fireball around. There's soda and punch for the teetotalers, but with far less variety than the liquor. There are even party favor bags for the end of the night stuffed with nips of peach schnapps, Jagermeister, and cranberry juice (the recipe for a red headed slut) and various jewels and baubles, plastic Starbucks cups, hella neon nail polish. And condoms. They are all jammed with condoms.

Invitations aren't sent so much as Lila and Astrid invite every single person they know and don't loathe. Costumes are a requirement, but presents are just highly encouraged. But it's Astrid's birthday, okay? Presents are a must.

And no one is allowed to dress like Jessica Rabbit on pain of... well, pain.

[pathology]

Because you totally don't have one! Look, it's okay, because you called me the best medic ever [is that really what she said?], so I'll let it slide. But if you're planning on going to any other costume parties, you have to let me help.

[lurings]

I'm not planning on going to any other parties. [ ever. astrid is ~special. ]

[pathology]

Well, good, because mine's the best. Have you had any of the food yet? Picked up a treat bag? OH! Did you drop off your present on the table?

[lurings]

[ so many questions. ] Yes, no, yes.

[ those are in the right order, she thinks. astrid's present is a hunting knife. ]

[pathology]

[preens. she doesn't even know what the present is (she'll prob like it tho, so a+ good job), but knowing that abigail succeeded at the present component even if she made like a c- in the costume component is good enough for her. and now she's just babbling.] Great! The cupcakes are my fave. I thought the red velvet was a little much at first, like, Lila really got stuck on the redhead thing when she was planning, but they are really good. And you should get a treat bag, everything in them is really cute.

[lurings]

Red does look good with the black and white theme.

[ accidentally defending lila. ]

What are in the bags?

[pathology]

Um, get one and find out!

[lurings]

[ abigail goes to retrieve one -- and there, astrid can see she is a tailless mouse, she had a run in with the butcher's wife -- and brings it back, poking through it. ]

Why are there... so many condoms?

[ furtively, she looks around to see if stiles is here, while she is awkwardly holding a handful of brightly colored condoms. but then she catches sight of alex and some of the awkward fades because of their exploits with the condom machine in paris. ]

[pathology]

Because safe sex is important and if people keep having babies I know the daycare will end up in the Light wing and how about no. Do you want that? Do you want to watch the babies?

[lurings]

I'm not having sex, much less babies. I don't need these.

[pathology]

What if you change your mind? You should save them! But not like, forever, because they do expire. But just in case! I bet Belle left because she's preggo. Know how I know? Because she wouldn't take my condoms.

[lurings]

She didn't leave, she just wants to be alone right now.

[ though for all abigail knows astrid is completely right. ]

And I already have condoms. I don't need this many. [ better? she's suddenly grateful she didn't whine until will agreed to come with her because she doesn't relish having this conversation in front of him. ]

[pathology]

Alone in her preggo-ness. Like, okay, I left on the mission with Gold in like June, right? If she got knocked up right before we left, that would put her at like ... 4, almost 5 months along. She could be one of those girls who doesn't show a lot. And it's not like she wears catsuits or something all the time, so how would you know?

[she snaps out of her conspiracy theory when she realizes ... abigail has moved on.] Yeah, but are they like, neon? You'll never lose these in your purse.

[lurings]

They're German! Alex and I got them out a vending machine in the subway in Paris.

[pathology]

Well, so are these, because they came from me. [/logic]

[lurings]

You are not a vending machine in the subway in Paris. And if I don't use them, there's more for you.

[ also logic. ]

[pathology]

Um no, contents of my treat bags are non-refundable.

[lurings]

It's not a refund, it's an under the table transaction. [ what if she wraps them and adds them to astrid's present which i haven't decided on yet. what if. ]

[pathology]

[YOU ALREADY SAID IT WAS A KNIFE.] Lame.

[theminotaur]

[ I FORGOT BC IM A GOLDFISH. /swims off a cliff.

she shrugs like sux 2 b u. ]

[pathology]

Do you even like anything? [so blunt. probably so drunk.]

[lurings]

I like the Starbucks cup.

[pathology]

Well duh, it's Starbucks.

[lurings]

I only like the lemonade.

[ well now she is just being a brat. ]

[pathology]

[she makes a face like gurl. gurl.] You should try the green tea lemonade. It's Adam's fave.
