SUMMARY: Ned invites the whole City to the Pie Hole. He and Zatanna are cooking and baking everything (there are meat and meatless options), but feel free to bring a favorite from home!
FORMAT: quick/spam; make your own threads for your own people or table. on open threads estimate the time of arrival.
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...]

Do not forget that I am Archadian.

[doubleoohbaby]

I don't know what that entails. But, if you're after hunting or swordsmanship, we can manage it.

[solidorkable]

... You would spar with me? (because people tend to treat him like he's delicate and he's been itching to do something.) Zatanna does not know that the sword and dagger in my room are real.

(or at least, that is WHAT HE ASSUMES because mom would never ever go through his stuff and would totally respect his privacy.)

[doubleoohbaby]

If you wish to spar, we can spar. Weapons or hand to hand. Your choice, kid. [He's definitely not going to teach Larsa like he's delicate, but he supposes he shouldn't kill the kid or maim him because Zee might get mad.]

[solidorkable]

I am not opposed to learning a new style of hand to hand combat. (he sounds so excited!!)

[doubleoohbaby]

Then perhaps a bit of boxing will do you some good.

[solidorkable]

I would hate to forget whatever skills I have been taught.

[doubleoohbaby]

I'll refresh your memory.

I hope you don't bruise easily.

[solidorkable]

Even if I did, I would wear my achievements proudly.

[doubleoohbaby]

Good lad, that's the way to be.

[solidorkable]

(for a moment, he feels himself liking James and it's gross.) I should leave you to Zatanna.

[doubleoohbaby]

[Ugh, as if liking should be a thing between them.] I'll be heading home soon. I'll see her more later.

[solidorkable]

(game over, cnc ends.) You should thank her for inviting you, as one would to a gracious host.

[doubleoohbaby]

I'll certainly be giving her plenty of thanks.

[solidorkable]

(he doesn't get it.) I hope you give her as much as she deserves.

[doubleoohbaby]

[Aw, kid. So cute.] Don't worry, she'll get plenty. If not tonight, then within the week.

[solidorkable]

As you should, she worked very hard.

[doubleoohbaby]

That's why I love her.

[solidorkable]

(oh shit he said the L word in front of him

how is he supposed to disapprove james

how

how is he supposed to) I, uh, yes. (he' absolutely speechless.)

[doubleoohbaby]

[Perfect.

Just as planned.

Except not really, that just kind of slipped out, but it wasn't exactly an accidental declaration either.]

Don't look so shell-shocked. Now if you'll excuse me, I have places to be.

[solidorkable]

(there's just a weak wave (that he'll deny later) before he just goes to sit down and PONDER ON THIS.)
