thatwaslucky | MCA #1- Friday night, and probably later

This was really Annie and Summer's party, that just so happened to take place in Rey's stupidly giant apartment. Still, even while she'd been told a lot of people might be coming, Rey was a little concerned no one actually would, and then she'd have to figure out what to do with just... a ridiculous amount of alcohol and so many inflatable reindeer. And packages for this thing had been showing up daily for a week, including as late as this afternoon, and after all of this, people had better show up.

There were so many Christmas lights around the place that the apartment lights weren't even on, Summer's Jello shots were very much on display, and while there was mistletoe hanging from the ceiling, it wouldn't force you to kiss anyone. (No, no, that's the alcohol's job.) It was jolly as hell up in here, and honestly loud enough that even if you decided to skip the party you'd probably have some idea of how it went.

Also Tino showed up like ten minutes early and was just kind of hanging around.

Enjoy the night! Hopefully you wore something festive or you're gonna hear about it.

"Maybe people really are that hardcore, I don't know," Rey pointed out, taking the candy cane out.

"I would be legit impressed if that was the case," Summer had to admit. "But don't say that too loud, or else we actually will have people trying, and then we better hope that anyone here who knows the Heimlich maneuver also knows it while drunk."

"There's enough alcohol, I expect someone to try it," Rey admitted, pausing to actually do the shot. "That's really good."

It was funny. Because they were good, and Summer knew they were good, but she was never going to stop feeling a rush of relief every single time someone tried them and told her they were good.

Yet still be completely confident in her response.

"What can I say?" she shrugged nonchalantly. "I've got a gift."

"You do," Rey smiled. "Now what to follow that up with..."

"The blue one!" Summer decided, after a brief second to think about it. "It's blueberry, fruity, a good next step, I think!"

Then a grin surfaced.

"Thinking of trying them all?"

This was very big, if true.

"Maybe through the night," Rey said, picking up the blue one. "I'm really not trying to do too much."

She just, you know, would accidentally pace herself so she didn't end up sober again for any part of the night.

Summer nodded understandingly. "Pacing is, like, super important," she agreed. "You definitely don't want to be the first one to start crashing. I mean, unless you like shit drawn all over your face..."

Summer would never, for the record.

At least not on Rey's face.

"No, and that's why I'm not staying here." And totally just abandoning her apartment to the party gods.

Summer couldn't have stopped her snort even if she'd wanted to.

"Yeah, okay," she said, brows lifted in skepticism, "that's the reason you're not staying here."

And, yes, those were Summer's eyes very pointedly dancing across the party to wherever that pirate was at that moment.

"He offered to let me stay if my apartment got destroyed," Rey said.

Also she was totally planning to hit that later but she wasn't nearly drunk enough to say it yet.

"Oh, I know what he offered," Summer assured her, with a voice that she was pretty sure Rey wouldn't need the Force to know was totally not convinced.

"That didn't even come up."

Yet. They were going to get really blatant before long.

Summer gave Rey a look for a flash of a second before it was ruined with a sudden laugh.

"Well, I think I just figured out what I'm getting you for Christmas now."

"I'm so concerned," Rey said.

Summer was supes flattered that that was your first response, Rey, especially since this was really just the set-up for a terrible joke.

"Don't be," she assured her. "It's just a dictionary. But with the word subtext highlighted. You might find it interesting."

And she hated that her next thought was that someone else could probably use that present, too.

"All right," Rey said, admitting this just because it was Summer, but mostly she was just pretty private. "Maybe I'm past acting like nothing's happening."

And she kind of caught something with that last part, but she wasn't sure if it was something she should bring up.

"I mean," said Summer, "don't get me wrong, it's totally adorable and gives me something really easy to tease you about, but, yeah, I really don't think you're fooling anyone. Least of all yourselves."

"We're really not," Rey agreed. "But I really would stay there even without that on the table."

She'd gone and gotten all attaaaaaached.

"Hope he's got a really strong table, then," said Summer, with a grin that was practically on the brink of involving waggling eyebrows.

Look. She should totally be allowed to cope with her own sexual frustration by vicariously teasing her friends about their lack thereof.

"I'll be back later," Rey said, but she was blushing, and smiling, and if she suggested testing a table later when she was super drunk it was all Summer's fault.
