WHAT in person
WHERE Heavenly Grounds
WHEN 75!!

[So how do you feel about getting into the holiday spirit? Because with all that wine around from the Bingo victories someone's put a sign up outside Heavenly Grounds today advertising a ~holiday party~ There's festive decorations with mulled wine, hot toddies, spiked egg nog. You name it, it's there to get you plastered.

And I guess there's cookies and fruit cake and stuff too, but who needs food when there's drinking?]

I suppose it is. And now I match the decor.

[appliedscience]

[wrapping an arm around Loki's waist]

You way outdo the decor.

[mistruths]

[ leaaans, kissing tony’s temple ]

Flattery will get you everywhere.

[appliedscience]

Oh, I'm counting on it.

[steering them towards a quiet corner]

[mistruths]

[ there’s a booth that’s dimly lit? the low lights make the sparkly bits in loki’s hair shine brighter :O uwah ]

[appliedscience]

[that'll be right where Tony goes, noting the shine and pressing a kiss into his hair]

[mistruths]

[ laughs, turning to hide his face against tony ]

[appliedscience]

[a grin]

Honestly, I don't know why you don't like parties more. This seems like a very respectable party for doing disrespectful things.

[mistruths]

I don’t mind parties, generally.

[ AS YOU’D KNOW SINCE HE USUALLY IS THE ONE TO RUN HG’S BASHES ]

I just dislike being surprised with one.

[appliedscience]

Fine. Fair point. I just wish you liked this one more. Despite the surprise.

[mistruths]

What’s special about this one in particular?

[appliedscience]

Is it unforgivably highschool if I tell you I want you to like my friends? Friend. I guess really it's just the one.

[mistruths]

If it’s just the one, I’d have to ask you to specify which one it is you’re speaking of. You have a great many friends, Tony.

[appliedscience]

[a sigh]

Steve. I'm obviously talking about Steve.

[mistruths]

Mm. Are you.

[appliedscience]

[giving him a look]

What percentage of why you don't like him is actually about him? Honest answer.

[mistruths]

Why, Tony. You ought to know... I’m never honest.

[appliedscience]

Not the point.

[mistruths]

Isn’t it, though?

[appliedscience]

I just want you to give him a chance.

[mistruths]

Why? What does it matter? He’s so disgustingly earnest, it’s, as you say, creepy.

[appliedscience]

Yeah, he tries a little hard. And look, if that's why you don't like him, fine. But don't just not give him a chance for no reason.

[mistruths]

...

Why is this so important to you?

[appliedscience]

Because he's a part of my life here now, and frankly, since this place is approximately eleven square feet, he's part of your life too. I don't want you to hate it.

[mistruths]

...

Fine. I’ll—consider it.
