Pie Party is Go

[tibetanpeople]

Who: OPEN
What: Pie. Pie. Tons of Pie!
When: Afternoon to Late at Night
Where: On planet, at a little sort of inn.
Warnings: Threadjacks welcome. Possible drunkenness and angry mob. It gets pretty crazy when night rolls around.

Well, the day has finally arrived. Everything has been carefully prepared to satisfaction. Ingredients were mixed, crusts were created, and batches were heated. It's all been carefully prepared, and most villagers have decided to keep their distance. The little old alien innkeeper has hesitantly opened her doors to the people of the Thor.

It's time. For. Pie.

Main Event

[tibetanpeople]

There they are. Those majestic beauties. Pies, pies, pies, of all different shapes, sizes, and flavors. You've got strawberry pie, cherry pie, pumpkin pie, blueberry pie, apple pie, rhubarb pie, mud pie (with gummi worms on top), raspberry pie, peach pie, pecan pie, woolton pie, sugar pie, bumbleberry pie, even shoofly pie. Every type of pie you can think of is there, including some of this planet's particular flavors. Dazzle Razzle pie, hopeless pie, Chuck's pie, Pie #673, Metallic Acid Pie, Necronomicon Pie, [Translation Redacted] Pie, chicken noodle soup pie, and others are available for eating... on a separate table.

There's also coffee, water, juice, liquid pie, and alcohol.

[650nmivore]

And yup, here she is. They have been invited, after all. And she'll just be floating there, eyeing all these pies.

Yeesh, that is a lot of baked goods.

...Oh hey. Drinks.

[tibetanpeople]

"Hi there, Marceline!"

There's energetic Coops. He vaguely remembers that she might need a specific kind of meal, but he can't quite recall what...

"Enjoying the party?"

[650nmivore]

[he gets a casual wave]

It's not too bad. [not exactly her type of scene, but eh] What's the occasion?

[getinmyoven]

[Excuse me, Marceline. You surely aren't checking out those drinks when there are so many delicious baked products around, are you?]

Marceline! I hope the reds aren't too hard for you to find. There's cherry, strawberry, rasberry, and rhubarb. You should try looking for the ones with lattice crust if you're more worried about the shade than the flavor.

[650nmivore]

[nope, she's already taking a long siiiip of that bloody mary]

Was this even your party?

[fireflyheir]

Someone else who can float? Neat! John grins at her, lifting his head a little. "What're you going to try first?"

[650nmivore]

[John gets a grin right back.]

I dunno. Probably the drinks.

[pause]

...is that a pie smoothie?

[getinmyoven]

[Gumball has all but taken over the little old alien inkeeper's kitchen in the run up to the pie party. She's free to take credit for the savory and the planet's own pies, but desert pies? They're one of his many specialties in the kitchen and Gumball is going around in his pretty kitty apron, making sure everyone at least has the opportunity to try some.]

[fireflyheir]

Chicken noodle soup pie sounds… pretty odd, but the kind of odd where you want to try it just to find out what it's like, so that's what John's doing right now.

…it's kind of dribbly.

[nohugging]

You've got pie on you.

[Rin says this in what's probably the most matter-of-fact delivery possible, just gazing at John's chin while the spork to her own soup pie rests in between her toes.]

Of course, we don't really know if it's the pie that's on you or the soup that they put in the pie.

[fireflyheir]

[whoops.]

If it's the soup in the pie then it is part of the pie, isn't it? [either way he's putting his down for a moment and hunting for a serviette.] Thanks, uh…

[boomsticking]

It took Ash about four minutes to find a blueberry pie. He takes two slices, pours a cup of coffee and is prepared to carry it off.

Better catch him before he becomes a blueberry-stained mess.

[getinmyoven]

Oh dear. Gumball wasn't much of a hero, but he knew a kitchen disaster when he saw one. This wasn't quite a kitchen, but it would be his pie that ended up being messed up. He could see he needed to intervene. He managed to make his way over to steady Ash in record time.

"Everything going all right here?"

[boomsticking]

"Woah!"

Well, Ash thought he had it all under control.

"Fine, I was just gonna cram this into my mouth." He's starving - and so close to the table. Sooo cloose..

Re: Main Event

[nohugging]

[Somehow she managed to carry a plate full of a few different slices of pie onto a separate table for the eatening to occur. This being Rin, and the chairs being kind of un-conducive to eating with your toes, she's climbed up onto that same table for a better vantage point.

Right now, she's pouring some alcohol on top of her pie.]

Chairs, Tables, and General Area

[tibetanpeople]

Chat up some friends, locals, or just enjoy the delicious pie.

[tibetanpeople]

This is a good day. There's plenty of friendly people, lots of pie, and some damn good coffee. He'll just be sitting back in a chair, tape recorder resting just slightly out of his sight.

MMMmmmmm.... Cherry pie...

[i_demand_euphoria]

Somebody here really liked pie, Calvin had decided rather quickly. And while the mud pie had been pretty good, he got bored rather quickly afterward. Maybe he should think about furthering Zim's cause more, it had been a few days since he'd put up those posters after all and it was something to do.

Wandering among the tables, his eyes catch on an unattended tape recorder and it's just too much of a temptation to resist. Sneaking around people is easy when they don't know he's there; he's under their periphery vision. It's simple enough to creep up on the adult and reach one hand up to quietly steal the recorder away and then he's making his escape under the tables, off to go play experiment with his find.

Zim didn't need to be notified about everything he took right?

[getinmyoven]

[That was a request, right? Never mind that he still hasn't quite finished that last slice, another piece has already found its way onto his plate.]

I'm glad you're enjoying it so much.

[fireflyheir]

[plopping down in another chair close by, and leaning forward]

So! Time for verdicts on some of the more unusual flavours?

[threedoctorates]

Reid wasn't even sure why he was here, at least at the inn. The planet he made a point to visit at least once every time they stopped at a new one, if only to take a day or so to learn everything he could about it. After all, it was a once in a life time opportunity, even if he didn't believe the story fed to them on the ship, he wasn't one to was this up.

So here he sat, eying the pie piece in front of him with his cup of sugar with a dash of coffee. Someone feel free to bother him.

[tibetanpeople]

Bothering commenced.

"Hi there, Agent Reid! Enjoying the pie?"

B Side

[tibetanpeople]

Maybe you got lost. Maybe you fell through a portal. Regardless, Coops thought ahead. A couple dozen normal pie flavors are available here, all set down in a way animals could eat it.

Just watch out for the lizard people making their way to the tables.

Later That Night...

[tibetanpeople]

So. The party may have gone on longer than expected. Some music might have been set up. It might have gotten too loud. And someone may have spiked a lot of the drinks and food at some point. No harm, right?

Oh. There's some angry locals at the door. The innkeeper seems all too happy to let them in...
