Picnic time!

[southernreaper]

Who: Kevin, Bruce, Mimsy and all the invitees
When: Sunday August 5th Noon - ?
Where: Kevin and Bruce's pad.
Summary: Kevin invited some people for a picnic/barbecue thing, hopefully they all stop by.
Warnings: Kevin's temper, possibly Crowley/Magneto, Miss Unohana smiling. Will add others as necessary.

Kevin has spent the last couple of days cooking, baking and cleaning the house with Mimsy and Bruce's help.

He's moved everything outside and will be manning the grill, and making sure that everything is nice and ready.

Some foods on offer:

Typical grill fare (burgers, dogs, sausages, chicken)
Corn on the cob (on the grill!)
Salads (macaroni, potato, three bean, regular lettuce salad, egg, tuna, and chicken)
Fresh vegetables with dip
Fried okra
Greens
Potatoes au gratin
Eggplant lasagna
Fried fish and hushpuppies
Pies/cobblers (blackberry, strawberry/rhubarb, apple cobbler w/streusel topping, blueberry, pecan pie)
Cakes/cupcakes (devil's food, carrot, vanilla)

All buns/breads are homemade, by Kevin as are all the desserts. There are two huge tables of food with paper plates. There are three coolers of drinks (one saved for alcoholic drinks brought by the guests). Mimsy is trolling for food, Kevin's wearing an inhibitor, and all are welcome!

Anyone who fights will be asked to leave and then removed. Kevin's in a mood, and just wants to have fun.

[After having eaten a rather sparing plate, Teito wandered around for a bit - though the only people he really knew were Frau and Kevin. Frau was talking to some old man and Kevin was busy with the grill... so Teito decided to make himself useful by wandering the area and picking up discarded or dropped plates and cups.

It only takes a moment though, before he finally finds a quiet place to simply sit and watch all of the people milling about, legs crossed and elbows resting on his knees in a comfortable slouch.]

[Mimsy is still trolling for bacon. There must be bacon, somewhere. SOMEONE HAS BACON AND SHE WILL FIND IT.

Nose to the ground, she finds someone who smells like not!Daddy. She wanders over and plops her but on the ground in front of him, studying him. Her tongue flops out of the side of her mouth.

HELLO!]

I remember you.

[Teito blinks for a moment, then crouches down, closer to Mimsy's level so that he could reach out a hand, mildly curious. He is, after all, still getting used to pets.

Frau's cat still mostly avoided him, though he was sure it might be warming to him finally.]

Are you supposed to be out here? Someone could step on you.

[TAIL WAGGING! YOU SAY WORDS!

She trots closer, her butt wagging with her tail and licks at his fingers. Then she flops over and presents her belly. RUB THE BELLY! BELLY RUBS! PLEASE!

Her tongue is hanging out the side of her mouth.]

[He just continues to watch the dog, his expression far too serious and bemused for the task of giving belly rubs, and reaches out slowly to pet her chest. The fur is warm, and soft, and her enthusiasm hard to ignore and so after several moments, he finally smiles a bit.]

Is that what you wanted? Just some attention, huh? Well, I guess that makes sense. Most people are too busy talking to each other to notice someone so small.

[He shifts to kneel, doubling his efforts with both hands before smiling a little more.]
