Generic Winter Gift Giving Holiday

Who: Marvel cast+invited guests and dates
What: CH5 Floor 5 hosts Generic Winter Gift Giving Holiday, in the spirit of cooperation, inclusiveness and good food.
When: December 25th
Where: Community House 5, Floor 5
Summary: Pepper and Tony held Thanksgiving, now it is Floor 5's collective turn to host the party for Christmas/Hanukkah/Yule/whatever those crazy Midgarians celebrate anyway. Hopefully everyone will survive.
Rating: PG-13 because alcohol




[It seemed only fair that since Pepper and Tony had hosted the last holiday, that someone else host this time. And since they kind of had an entire floor, the inhabitants of Floor 5 had bravely and nobly taken the task upon themselves to create a party that they could all share.

The doors are propped open to try to give them enough space for mingling, with a Christmas tree set up in Clint's living room, presents laid out beneath it. And maybe he's been a bit enthusiastic with the decorating, because it's kind of weighted down with tinsel and baubles, but it's been more than twenty years since he last had a Christmas tree and people to spend it with. Everyone else has added their own personal touches too, with a menorah in the windowsill for Ben and Billy.

The place of honour on the couch is taken by Coulson, wrapped up in blankets and Clint has helpfully hung a sprig of mistletoe over his head with string because he is thoughtful like that.

The kitchen is laid out with food; there's the traditional turkey which they'd managed to prepare (Clint is rather proud of that), and a ham. Oddly for some perhaps, there's also a large fish in the middle of the table, the carp that Clint and Natasha have spent the last week keeping in a bathtub. There are, of course, assorted cakes and pies, vegetables in bowls. There's drinks too, mulled wine and hot cider and chocolate. There's also a plate of sugar cookies labelled 'Coercion Cookies'. Not to mention the food that Ben and Billy made which he doesn't know the names of but smells amazing anyway.

It's a somewhat chaotic affair; people arriving and leaving as they please, gifts given out whenever it seems appropriate and games played whenever there's a group big enough.]



[OOC: Feel free to have people drop by whenever they like, even early if they want to help prepare or discover large fish in the bathtub.]

Who says I'm trying to set him up?

[It's said with a smirk and a laugh and a sardonic arch of one eyebrow.]

And? [It's not as if rules meant all that much to them, when it came down to it.]

Did I suggest proposing? You might want to try kissing him first. I think you skipped a few steps there.

Except when you don't? [Her tone is oh-so-dry.]

Yes well, less of that, please. I'm tired of you bleeding all over my clothes. And I have much less here to choose from.

[Still, it's said with a crooked smile as she leans against him, then tilts her head back to flash him a grin.]

So. Are you gonna go kiss Coulson? It would be a terrible shame to go through all the trouble of sticking him under the mistletoe all night if you're not going to fluster him with the results.

[She gives him a mischievous grin and leans up to drop a kiss on the tip of his nose.]

You should always be worried, darling. Now go have some fun. I have some mischief of my own to cause.

[She grins and leans up to kiss him on the cheek before giving him a nudge back towards the main room.] As you should be. I'll come find you later.
