NO ONE IS EVER LATE!!!!!

[From the outside, the Pie Hole hasn't changed much, though the window is draped in elaborate snowflake-shaped lights, but inside is a whole other story. Zatanna has made quite a spectacle of the place, a huge banquet hall filled with long and short tables for enjoying your meal with any number of friends. And the decorations are outrageous. Ned's Christmas decorations, which were already over-the-top have all been magically enhanced and Thanksgivingsized like little crystalline pumpkin baubles and overspilling cornucopia on each buffet table, lined up in front of the kitchen. Ned is firmly putting his foot down this year: no one is to enter his kitchen but Zee or himself.

He'll be serving regular pie menu as well as breakfast (frittatas) until twelve noon at which point there will be an hour or two for people to arrive and mingle. The food will be out by 1:30-2 pm and dessert to be served at 3 pm. Ned just wants everyone to have a great day so come in and make yourself at home!! There are a few kegs as well if you all didn't listen and byob...]

Alright. As long as you won't mind... [Look at him, trying to be all accommodating. He'll sit here looking miserable all day if she really wanted him to stay.]

[hexappeal]

This isn't a trick, I promise. You came here for a while and that's more than I can ask of you. I appreciate it. [She knows, baby. ;;]

[doubleoohbaby]

Mm, you're perfect. [Leaning in for smoochies.]

[hexappeal]

Don't say things you don't mean. You'll end up regretting them. [She closes her eyes and twitches her nose just enough that he can feel it. It's all affection, here.]

[doubleoohbaby]

I won't regret that when it's the truth. [So fake affronted as he draws back just slightly.]

[hexappeal]

For the moment, it might be. [It bothers her because she knows she isn't and will never be. She'll just let him down, if he thinks like that.]

[doubleoohbaby]

Then you're not that bad, how about that? [Such a romantic.]

[hexappeal]

I can go with that.

[doubleoohbaby]

Come now, darling, you should be asking for better than that.

[hexappeal]

How about "pretty alright, I guess"?

[doubleoohbaby]

[Hissing through his teeth as his inhales thoughtfully.] Not sure I can stretch that far.

[hexappeal]

Then not that bad, it is.

[doubleoohbaby]

[Pout.] Darling, you're more than alright.

[hexappeal]

I don't think you'd date me if I wasn't.

[doubleoohbaby]

I'd date you because you're you.

[hexappeal]

Yeah, yeah. So you say.

[doubleoohbaby]

I'd date you because you're the only person who puts up with me.

[hexappeal]

There are plenty of people that put up with you or would. You had no problem with it before I came around and I doubt that would change if I up and disappeared.

But you're being very sweet. I can appreciate that.

[doubleoohbaby]

You better not up and disappear.

[hexappeal]

You know I'd have no choice, if I did. But I won't go unless I have to.

[doubleoohbaby]

We'll both just have to do our best, hn?

[hexappeal]

See, I can promise that at least.

[doubleoohbaby]

Even I can manage that promise. [And he doesn't do promises.]

[hexappeal]

Why, Mister Bond. I do believe you're acting like a bona fide adult.

[doubleoohbaby]

That can't be right. The world should have ended by now...
