He was already pointedly looking away from Shiloh, but his glance slid down to Ian's hand and a careful expressionlessness settled on his face. He looked very tired. "Yeah. Or Obadiah, if you're feeling formal. Hi," he said. And then: "Maebe's here," to Shiloh, although he again didn't look in his direction. "Pretty sure she'd like to see you and pretty sure she's avoiding me. I'll let you say hey." And with that as an excuse and without further comment, he drifted away, hands in his pockets, in no direction in particular.

When Dakota arrived, followed by Melvin, Gale had been busy trying to figure out the whole marriage thing in his head. His thoughts had unintentionally drifted back to the conversation he'd had with Stormy not two days ago, and his cheeks reddened slightly. He cleared his throat, sighed, and shuffled his feet.
Gale had long since lost track of the conversation as the others drifted around them, distracted instead by the little tables set up along the side. "Hey, Stormy," he said, and pointed. "There are game over there. Do you maybe wanna go play some of them?"

"Always, hmm? Maybe thanks to a possessed woman?" He gave Kat an amused look as she sallied forth to bother Mark, settling against the wall for what was probably going to be a good show. He mused over trying out the gingerbread piece he yanked from the wall, but a large figure disturbed his field of vision.
Namely, someone had climbed the wall.
Jack stared for a moment. "Yo, Spiderman, think you had enough sweets yet?" he called.

Melvin looked at Dakota. Just looked at him and the cookie he was spitting about as he tried to talk through it. He wasn't going to say a thing. No. He would not say how talking with your mouth full was impolite. That it showed the food you were chewing to everyone around you. That it was unhygentic to spray food on people. That you could wait 5 SECONDS TO SWALLOW before you talked.
Most of all, he wasn't going to tell Candace, who always had a high standard of dress that Melvin always appreciated in a place where most hunters sometimes went without doing laundry for days, that she could do better.
He would not tell her this.
However, if his eyes happened to slowly move from Dakota to Candace, he wasn't not responsible for the message they gave to her. "Well..........I'm sure you'll be very...happy together." See. Nice.
He looked at his cup and not sure if there was cookie in there or not, decided to set it down on a nearby table.

Marcus huffed at his wife.
"No, I can stop him, you I just have to let do as you wish.... though I don't regret what you do." A small pang hit him at the word regret.
Whoops, happier things.
"It was outside... I vote we bring a little.. inside. Though we'd need a few others."

Solomon looked down as he was referred to as Spiderman by someone.
Then he just grinned maniacally. "Negatory."

"Obadiah sounds awfully stiff, Taymable" said Ian lightly, sliding his free hand into the pocket of his pants. The nickname, already in place, flowed easily, as though he had known the other for years. "But it's nice to finally meet you, I've seen you around and on Twitter and whatnot."
There was a weary expression Taym's face as he sloped away, Ian's eyes following him for a long moment before he turned back to Shiloh. "Strange guy," he said with a smile. "Think maybe he doesn't like me?"
It was said with amusement, but the amusement shifted, Ian's expression softening a little as he took in the flush on his boyfriend's face. "Relax," he said softly. "You're doing great - and you look great too, by the way - but if you want me to back off, then I'll respect that too."
He squeezed Shiloh's fingers reassuringly. "Did you want to go say hi to Maebe?"

The word 'regret' made a similarly pained look come over her face as well. But only for a brief moment. "Well, that's only because you match my destructive energy," she said, shrugging before flashing him a small smile.
"Oh. Are you proposing what I think you are?" she asked, twisting her scarf in her hands and swaying her weight between both feet, a playful smile growing from the small seed of one on her face.

She had been bobbing her head at the answer--summer, awesome, great, perfect, nice and warm, all sorts of flowers to behold--but the moment Melvin entered the conversation, Stormy's spirits plummeted like a dropped boulder. It wasn't the man's fault, though she wondered if the Lifer knew what she had done at the trials. It had been dark, sure, but that didn't mean the cameras couldn't have night vision either . . .
Gale's suggestion couldn't have come at a better time; she had been just about to make the same one and nodded to him with a grateful look. "Sounds like fun! We'll see you guys later," she said quickly, tucking herself closer to Gale's side as she turned to start them over towards the games. curiously, it seemed Nevada was there with someone other than Chelsea; she wondered if the Sun would turn up.
"Games or food, doesn't matter to me," she mumbled to him, casting his blush a curious glance.

Peyton hovered for a moment or two after having set Maebe down, not entirely sure what to do if she didn't want food or drink. It was a relief when she was asked to fetch Shiloh, a relief to be able to do something for the other girl. Never mind that she'd already dressed her and half carried her to the party, this was different, somehow. "I can do that." A smile, genuine and sweet, was offered to the other blonde before Peyton was turning on her toe to head towards the wall that Taym had just wandered away from. "Hey Shy!" An unexpected flood of emotion struck, making her smile just a little to bright. She'd heard he was back, that he was alright, but she hadn't seen him until now. "Maebe's here, she wanted me to let you know she was here." The small sun was tempted to give the Lifer a hug, but she just didn't know him that well. So instead she reached out to lay a hand on his arm before letting it fall away. "Glad you're okay, by the way." Ian was given a cheery grin and a wiggle of fingers before Peyton moved off again to help herself to a cookie, pale eyes scanning the crowd before rolling up spot Solomon perched up near the ceiling. Jack had also spotted him. For a moment or two she simply stared, then she wandered over so she was sanding more or less beneath the other Sun so she wouldn't have to shout to be heard. "Are you on the look out for danger, Mister Secretary of Defense?" Why was she not surprised to see him somewhere high? Jack was given a look, neither hostile nor altogether friendly. It was a vast improvement from the death glares she'd given him a month ago.

Mister what. Jack gave Peyton a look in return, then headed on over to hear what the fuss was about since, well, why not. He snagged some eggnog and was disappointed to find it lacked the tang of alcohol, but sipped nevertheless.
"They put some s**t in the walls or something?" he asked the pair of Suns. "JOY or whatever? Sounds like a health hazard." Or the beginnings of a superhero story, judging from how high and well the guy was clinging.

"NEGATORY MADAM PRESIDENT, TODAY I AM NOT SECRETARY OF DEFENSE." Solomon said loudly - JOY and sugar clearly mixed well in his system. However, what would happen next probably shouldn't have as Solomon didn't just drop from his ceiling-wall-corner perch, but launched from it into a diving-landing-roll on the ground while shouting:
"I AM THE NIGHT!!!!"
Because he was Batman.
