Characters: Lord Grumpypants, Diarmuid, Diarmuid's idiot brothers, the extended family, and open to their CR and anyone that just wants to drop by.
Setting: Floor 81
Format: Party style, whichever format you prefer
Summary: ~~When two busybodies start plotting, all hell breaks loose.~~ "Waver's Anniversary" (or more informally known as Waver and Diarmuid's wedding party.) It's just a party. Nothing to see here. That cake is white just by... accident... and decorated to match the rings... yeeeeeeep... complete accident.
Warnings: Someone may decide to drown a couple people... who knows.

[In case someone is observant enough to notice, Waver and Diarmuid have been wearing matching rings... and under the disguise of a convenient excuse, that being Waver's one year anniversary in the Tower, Lancer and Reno have thrown a party to celebrate.

Keeping the relationship a perfect secret, of course. It's just a party. Good times, shooting the breeze, card games. Unfortunately, there's no booze. The lounge has been set up with a buffet with food from the Floor Sixty Kitchen, and there's a cake.

The cake happens to be white, and decorated. And that celtic knot decoration may just be matching the rings. Complete accident, of course.]

[She's just going to stand there for a minute while she pieces this situation together.

1.) There are decorations and a cake.
2.) Waver is clearly pissed off at Reno for setting this up.
3.) ???

...what, is he back there in a dress or something?

[...oh no. Oh no. That mental image. That mental image has done what very few things in the Tower have: set off a giggle fit. Yukiko actually snorts in laughter at her own mental image.

Either she'll apologize or she'll fall over laughing, and either one's likely.]

Not if Reno enjoys living, he's not.

[FACE IN HANDS. There are three things very clear: one, Waver has a nice set of very clear Command Spells on the back of his right hand. Two, he's definitely wearing a ring. Three, his face is turning about as red as said Command Spells behind his hands.]

...not that funny...

I - I'm not laughing at you, but the - Reno-san in a dress - it's just too -

[Okay, okay, time to stop laughing. She's trying, but that mental image is hilarious. Yukiko takes a couple of deep breaths through her giggles, but it's hard.

It's only then that she catches sight of that ring. The meaning of the Command Spells isn't entirely clear to her, but she definitely gets the ring.]

I - I'm so sorry about laughing, but the mental image...Anyway! So I take it that the party's actually for you? Congratulations!

[...oops. Still giggling a tiny bit at the image of Reno in a dress. So sorry.]

Unfortunately. Reno thinks he's so fucking clever...We'll see how he likes it when I figure out how to get back at him for this.

It's not that bad, is it? It's kind of sweet...

I don't really do the whole 'being social' thing well.

I am basically in hell right now.

I'm sorry! I'm sure my gigglefit didn't help with that.

[She gives an apologetic smile.]

...also, if you need to duck out when someone inevitably comes up on the elevator, I never saw you do it. Promise.

It's fine. I'm just relieved someone in this room has a shred of sense left to them.

You'd think they would at least have the sense to ask you if you wanted a party...

Reno and Lancer lack many things, and sense is the most glaring thing which they have in negative amounts.

I'm not going to say 'it could be worse' and jinx the entire thing, but the Tower being what it is and celebrations being what they are, at least neither of them is going to be giving a drunken speech?

...my family runs an inn back home. I've heard a few of those while working and they're never pretty.

Lancer's Irish. I promise nothing.

[SIGH.]

I'm so sorry in advance.

...right.

[Face, meet palm.]

You don't need to apologize.

[She has heard things. Drunk businessmen don't hold their liquor well, and that means they don't hold their tongues either.]
