Happy Ides of March! (Open to anyone who Pippi might even slightly know. And NGs)

Okay, so it had taken some time planning, lots of talking to her mom's handler and working with him but it had all worked out pretty well. At least so far, Harry still worried. He'd only told Pippi that her day was booked today so there was no double booking or confusion on her part. So he supposed it counted as a surprise party. Though he had gotten her a present to put into the pile too.

He'd found a suitably large non-superhero HQ venue for it and currently the place was clearly decked out for Pippi. Indigo decorations aside, there was a giant cake, extra icing of course, with a chainsaw topper being guarded by Mr. Whiskers and his hat, puppies walking around (with supervision of their handlers) free to be petted and just look adorable to add to the atmosphere, plenty of food and mini party favours of course too.

Not to mention what seemed to be...Sienna Miller in the Baroness outfit? Who was carrying around a very...Pippi-styled chainsaw.

Well hey, this was a Pippi related party, you took these things in stride.

	"He doesn't have all of the right paperwork things, and doesn't know important things like smurfs not being real." Because that's so helpful. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She was fighting so hard not to twitch right now. "Ah," she said. "Well, I'll make sure not to mention him if I see any Republicans." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"We're doing really good," Dinah said. Though her detective senses were telling her he was up to something, but nothing guilty-like. Riley couldn't really keep most things from her. "And you? Any boyfriend in your life?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Probably good. Dinah was not quite prepared for the idea of Pippi with a sexuality. "Ah, well, that's good too." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	bwa_ha_ha 2013-03-22 12:11 am UTC (link)
	"Well, I'm sure you'll find one sooner or later." Because with Pippi, things just had a way of working out like that. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Oh God. She knew she shouldn't. But she had to ask. "Where... did you get a starter unicorn?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	bobblehead 2013-03-22 12:34 am UTC (link)
	"Mr. Unicorn was a present from Bugsy and Boo." Of course. "They said I might get my own show sometime too. I don't really want to be on camera, but they're fun." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Not... quite what she wanted, but probably the manageable option. "That works," she said. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Too many focal points. Too much flair. A lot of bright colors - both in his costume and what he normally wears. It draws the attention, but doesn't focus it. The original Booster's costume has everything drawing the attention up towards his chest and jawline - Riley uses a lot of the classic elements, but then there's this splash of green, and he doesn't have the same figure. There's a lot to work with, but he doesn't handle the classic look as well as you do."

	That actually made sense, in various ways. Pippi did know her fashion. And there was a fashion compliment under there too. Wow. "You do know that's his natural hair color, right?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	bobblehead 2013-03-24 02:28 am UTC (link)
	"Natural hair color has no bearing on looking like a dork. They make natural hair dyes for a reason. Or close top masks. If he wants to highlight it, he should switch his colors to use some more green so it doesn't draw the eye away from what he's trying to present. That, and figure out what feature he wants to accentuate... not that many choices, but still." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You'd think his mom could give him better advice then," Dinah found himself saying. "She used to be a model." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Dinah shrugged. "Ah well. Still, I'll pass your advice on to him." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
