Housewarming Party! Apartment Above Luke's, Friday Afternoon Till Evening

[spin_kick_snap]

Raven and Kathy were officially moved in!

Okay, not everything was done and most of their stuff was still at Eliot's, but they'd gotten a lot of work done painting and assembling furniture and most of what was left could be moved over a bit at a time. Which meant...it was close enough to being fully moved in that a small party was warranted. Especially if you were looking for a way to show you were nice, sane and adjusted a reason to party!

The party proper started at 6pm with plenty of delicious foods to enjoy, but people were more than welcome to come over early and help with the remaining wall painting and furniture assembling there was to do. Help was appreciated, but mostly people were invited to over to eat, relax, and help make this new place feel like a real home.

Eliot shot her a look. "Which one of us is s'posed to be the mentor in this relationship?"

"Which one of us just came back from the dead?" Kathy countered. "I didn't like my dad a lot. Hell, the last conversation we had was a major fight, cause I finally stuck up for myself. But I know he's probably gone and I'll never see him again. And I'd give up a lot to tell him I loved him one last time."

Eliot snorted and went back to screwing in the new fixture. Good lord, it used a lot of screws.

"Yeah, well. Looks a bit different when you've got 20 years between the argument kickin' you out and where you're at now."

"It looks like you've got twenty years of experience dealing with people and learning how they work and not an eighteen-year-old kid with a temper, all hopped up on testosterone?" Kathy asked. Innocently.

"Like I've got more'n twenty years of experience and you ain't even seen a whole twenty in your entire life," Eliot grumbled. He finished with the last screw and rested his hands on his hips. "Alright, flip the switch and let's see what we got.

"Yes, Eliot," Kathy said, practically skipping over to the switch. She'd said her piece and he'd taken her point. "Here we go!"

She flipped the switch and the room was filled with bright, white light.

"Would ya look at that," Eliot said, handing her the screwdriver again and stepping down off the chair. "You got yourself a bathroom light."

"I do!" Kathy said, beaming at him. "Just in time for me to start dinner, too!"

Some of which just involved grabbing stuff from downstairs, or rescuing the pot roast from Raven, but she had a few things of her own to make.

Like a salad.
