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.

[Allison laughs.] That sounds like quite a list of movies.

Far more than you may think.

[She grins.]

But they gotta put something in there for the parents, right?

It definitely keeps their attention at least.

[She nods a bit in agreement, before moving on.]

So have you been a member of the Knights long?

I came here toward the end of July. [She glances back to Felicity.]

It feels like longer, but I think that's just because of how busy we all get.

[She nods a bit at that in agreement.]

We definitely don't get a whole lot of downtime. It's good, though. I have a feeling getting bored around here with the amount of magic at our disposal could lead to more than a few disasters.

Oh... I didn't even think about that. Spells for entertainment and suddenly there's a scene from Beauty and the Beast.

Actually, I think it would be more along the line of The Sorcerer's Apprentice. Just ... random dancing mops and a lot of animated inanimate objects that really shouldn't be animated.

But would they actually clean things?

Probably not. They'd just ... slosh water everywhere and make the entire castle a hazard.

So a hazard more than a help.

[She nods in agreement.]

Which is why we should keep Dragon's Fire occupied as much as possible.

Which sect are you in?

Freelancer.

[The answer comes quickly, and she takes another swallow of her drink.]

I didn't really fit in any of the pre-made boxes.

If you could've made up your own sect - what would've it been?

[She tips her head to the side before shrugging.]

I've never really been one for boxes to begin with. I guess if there were one more pointedly for investigators, that might not be such a bad thing.

Dragon's Eye?

[Her eyebrows go up at that and she grins.]

Not bad.

I told Astrid we needed a suggestions box - that would definitely go in there.

[She nods in agreement.]

Definitely. Maybe we could put one right by the round table room?

I thought the front desk, but that's good too.

... Even better. See, clearly you are the brains of the operation.

[Because Felicity just does not think of the obvious options.]

[Allison laughs.] I will gladly take the promotion.

[Felicity grins before glancing down to her empty glass.]

Anyway, I think I'm going to get another drink. Can I get you something?

[Allison smiles.]

No, I think I'm fine. You should keep mingling.
