...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.

Ako smiles at that.

"Please. It's not heavy, just awkward Tyler-san."

"Right, um, any steps or edges I should watch for?"

It takes a few swerves but Ako manages to navigate the path.

Eventually.

"Sounds good Tyler-san," agrees Ako as she follows directions.

"You did a good job setting this up."

"It isn't any trouble with having this many people just show up?"

Ooh, hotdogs. Though, to be fair Ako is in favor of any food that tends to come with a fire to cook them on.

"So far, so good," says Ako.

Hotdogs first, burgers maybe later. Salad while the sausage cooks.

"I'll try to do better from now on," she says.

"It doesn't come up much, no."
