you're my sunshine and I want you to know

[temptationaccomplished]

Admittedly, it has been a very long time since I've attempted to host any kind of party, so I'm just a tad out of practice. But it wouldn't be anything too big--we do still have studies to attend to.

I was thinking a gathering of fellow students and I was wondering if anyone would be interested in perhaps...tea and biscuits? Some cake as well? Or pie, as that seems to be seasonally appropriate.

Tuesday? If that's not too short of notice, is it? Outdoors, weather permitting, or in a corner of the Great Hall unless someone has a better suggestion for tea-time?


There is someone here who I would very much like all of you to meet.

[It's Crowley. He wants you to meet Crowley. Please excuse him, he's very excited. He hasn't been able to have this friendship so openly in all his years on earth. Is it a bad time for this, probably, but he is so very happy right now, he is practically glowing with joy.]

Sincerely,

Azir Mr. Fell

I did not anticipate a party with a multi coursed meal. Not that I would say no to food— I was just not prepared. I’m quite fine with the treats, my dear, no need to go so above and beyond. I’m afraid Crowley will be overwhelmed enough by a small party.

Okay! I can scale back. I'm not trying to be the party queen...I never could be, ha. My friend had that covered.

But I'll definitely take care of the fire and a few snacks.

I don't want to limit your creativity, but I'm just afraid Crowley might not yet be ready for too much fuss. We have to ease him into it, you see.

A low fire, if you would. Nothing too grand, very contained. I appreciate all your help, my dear. Thank you.

I'm not an infant, just call it a fall carnival and I'll be in the background of it somewhere!

[temptationaccomplished]

NO. Because that's not what this is. Do not tell me what to make my party into, Crowley.

[sauntereddown]

If it's a party for me it's at least half mine. Don't act like I'm about to see my shadow and dash down a hole, for something's sake.

[temptationaccomplished]

Would you like to coordinate this party then--? I just want you to be happy and meet people. I don't want you to be a too-cool-for-everything wallflower.

[sauntereddown]

Of course not, are you trying to kill me? Just - do your thing, I'll be polite. Ish.

...you're not going to do sleight of hand, are you?

[temptationaccomplished]

Ish. Right, of course. Well, I suppose that's the most I can hope for.

...I wasn't, but now that you mention it--

[sauntereddown]

Look, I've got a reputation to develop, probably need to undo whatever you've said, I can't-

No no no no not in my name you won't!

[temptationaccomplished]

I haven't said anything. As we've established.

--But I've been practicing!

[temptationaccomplished]

Due to weather, [well, actually, due to Pallidus being unable to come out to play if it's sunny outside] I've had requests to move it indoors. That said, however, if you'd like to provide us with some lovely magical candlelight, I think it would make for rather nice ambiance.

[burningbrighter]

I can do it. Don't worry.
