Who: Ororo Munroe, Rogue, Kurt Wagner, Jubilation Lee, Remy LeBeau, Tony Stark, Steve Rogers, Bruce Banner, Dick Grayson Robin, and Melanie Walker
What: TURKEY DAY
When: Evening of the 24th
Where: House 16
Summary: The X-Men have decided to invite some of their buddies and pals (who all coincidentally have costumed alteregos) for some Turkey Day shenanigans.
Rating: H for HEARTWARMING

Over the past week, the X-Men have invited a variety of their friends and contacts who they knew would celebrate Thanksgiving, but wouldn't have anyone to spend it with here in Luceti because they're all jaded loners. They were all instructed to try and bring a dish with them, but it was no requirement. Nevertheless, all the traditional foods would be present, along with some delicious extras.

ooc: Characters can interact out at the table eating, over on the couches, in the one of the two spare bedrooms, or preparing food in the kitchen. Or maybe catching some cool air outside on the porch. Whatever your fancy is! Also, prose or action brackets are cool. Pick your poison.

[Admittedly Kurt never actually had any Thanksgiving until two years ago (three thanks to Luceti) when he came to America. Even then, a lot of the other students would go home to their families, so it was usually a pretty small affair at the Xavier Institute. Given it wasn't a holiday back in Germany, Kurt didn't make any attempts to go home back then. So even as the foreigner at the table, he's fairly used to the whole holiday by now.

So naturally he's going to enjoy this one! He loads up his plate with everything he can in order to eat. Turkey, cranberries, rolls, and the works. He helped prepare some of the food, as well as something extra his mother used to make for dinners, those being cabbage rolls (or Krautwickel). Perhaps others will be bold enough to try them.

For those who make it early enough for the table getting set, Kurt will be the one BAMFing in and out of the kitchen with bowls and plates of food, arranging them for people to get to in an utterly blatant attempt at showing off his acrobatic skills. Don't worry. He won't get any fur in the food.

He'll hang out at the table to eat, though the couch is a good place to pick off the leftovers as well. Of course, he'll be wanting his housemates to get good and properly introduced to Melanie, since this is as good as any time for them to meet his new girlfriend. He's a little proud of himself, so cut the blue boy some slack.]

"Kurt!" This on about the third BAMFing service attempt. Rogue coughs. "Quit stinkin' up the place."

You are making her coffee smell like sulfur. This is an unforgivable crime, clearly.

...is the night over yet?

[bamfing]

Frowning, Kurt takes note of all the smoke. Man. That was the bad thing about teleporting in doors.

"Come on, it's not that bad! I can barely smell it."

It's like living with a smoker.

She gives a significant glance over to Kurt's girlfriend in a 'Do you really want to make me embarrass you?' sort of way. "Just knock it off."

[bamfing]

Well. That's certainly convincing enough. Sigh! Such a spoilsport of a sister he has.

"Yeah, yeah. Okay." He'll still show off. Just without the teleporting.

[touchofrogue]

Whatever, dude. When the two of you are getting cozy later, you'll thank her. The reek of sulfur can't help anyone get in the mood.
