...how kids plan parties...

If they're dreamers, they want bouncy castles and pony rides and giant tigers.

If they're the children of superheroes, oddly enough they still want those things, but you can't find a good pony that resists nuclear radiation as Tyler's learned. So, in the interest of keeping things simple and within his budget, a party has come together in the backyard of the house of one Augustus Fenwick.

Inside, there's plenty of soda in the fridge, and bowls of chips, dips, crackers, pretzels and ofcourse candy and little paper favor bags. The coffee table between the couch and TV already has one large present wrapped in brown paper (decorated with green watercolor cats) and an absolutely HUGE box wrapped in a myriad of wrapping papers next to it.

Outside in the fenced backyard is a good sized stick, branch and log structure, waiting to be set on fire as soon as the sun really starts to set, and that isn't that far off as the afternoon sunlight reveals. There's a kid in a black trenchcoat that looks about eight sizes too big poking about said structure as Tyler holds open the door for the guests. And decorating the walls, counter top are little decorated brown-paper flags saying 'Happy Birthday Nepeta!" in green letters.

"OH..." He glances down at his front. "I SHOULD GET A PATCH FOR THIS JACKET OR SOMETHING. I GOT IT FROM THE BAR, IT'S PRETTY OKAY." Plain. Serviceable. Utilitarian.

She's looking around the room now for the giver.

"Cecil are these from you?"

"Yes! They're purrfect."

Beam!

Kittyfaces! This time she doesn't shred the wrapping paper; she's going to keep those.

She does get the box open pretty quickly for all that, though.

...


This time the squee reaches that special pitch that makes dogs flinch and bats take flight.

Nepeta makes a sincere effort to hug every single plush cat in the box at once, despite the fact that this is physically impawssible.

"I Think So, Too. At Least She Has Karkat And I There To Look Out For Her."

Beat.

"Tyler?"

"It's Not A Large Issue At This Very Moment, But With What's Going On In Our Universe Right Now..."

"If Anything Happened To Karkat And I, You'd Look Out For Her, For Us, Right?"

"I Can Not Think Of Anything She Can't Handle Herself, Other Than The Fact That There Is The Very Real Possibility That She Is Dead In Our World, And Not Merely Bound."

"Unless More Trolls From Our World Show Up In Milliways, If Something Happens To Karkat And I, She'll Be The Only One There. I Don't Want Her To Be Alone."

Smiling solemly, she wraps an arm around the younger boy's shoulders in a half hug.

"Thank You, Tyler. You Are A Good Friend."

She smiles again, though this one is notably brighter.

"Anytime. I- Excuse Me, I Need To Stop Nepeta From Pouncing On A Guest."

She is being eyed very suspiciously by an apparent-human; Karkat is, however, easily identifiable by his dress sense. Same grey cargo pants, same chunky black shoes, and apparently the same long-sleeves black t-shirt, under the black corduroy jacket.

He gives her a cautious nod.

Kanaya, would know that fashion sense and scowl anywhere.

"Hello, Karkat."

"HEY. WHAT IS THIS, YOUR HUMAN DISGUISE?"

There's another very large present that's made its way onto the the table with the rest, wrapped precisely in black with hunter green Leo symbols.
