Labor Day - Avengers
The air was warm and the sun was bright making it a perfect day for a cookout to celebrate Labor Day. Classes would start on the 8th (for those going to college they started a week ago) and it was the last chance to kick back and cut loose before hitting the books.

At the Avengers' Mansion in NYC Jarvis and some helpers he managed to rope into helping with the preparations were busy getting the food ready. Tables had been placed out around the pool and the large grill fired up to get nice and hot. Burgers, hot dogs, sausage, ribs, corn on the cob, pasta salad, salad and fruit salad were just some of the food available to eat. Soda, water, fruit juice and other beverages were on ice.

To help get to know each other the Thunderbolts received an invitation to attend.

It was a day of rest and relaxations for those who put their lives on the line for others.

	Luna helped set the food out on the table. Jarvis had to be the best cook in the entire universe. The aromas were making her mouth water, and she couldn't wait to dig in. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Aine was equally excited about the food. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hey, you standing in the corner," Luna smirked at Aine, "Help me finish putting this out." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	“Sure,” Aine said walking over to help, “It smells great.” (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	James had invited Valeria over, but he understood that she may have something with her family. He grabbed a plate, piled it with food and grabbed a chair closest to the food. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	"Hey there," Val said, walking up to James and giving him a kiss on the cheek. She'd spent time with her family and the rest of the Fantastic Four earlier. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hey!" James said and jumped up, almost spilling all of his food. He juggled the plate a bit, but managed to keep the food on it. He wrapped an arm around her waist and gave her a kiss. "Hi," he said with a smile. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Valeria returned the kiss. "Hi." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Despite the air about her, Akilah was a rather hungry girl this time of day. Her plate was filled to the brim. Oh, she'd eat it with the manners of a princess. But she'd eat it all. (Reply to this)

	Molly had noticed Anya slink off into the garage. Putting down her plate, she excused herself and followed after her. She didn't need words. Though she didn't know exactly how Anya felt, she had an idea. She missed Sarah everyday. She walked wordlessly up to Anya and wrapped her arms around her, holding her close to her.

	Anya leaned into Molly and just cried. She knew she shouldn't have come back here. Not this soon. Steve's presence was all around and it was torture. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Molly rubbed Anya's back, trying not to cry herself. "Do you want to go? We don't have to stay." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	dont_bug_me 2010-09-06 03:03 am UTC (link)
	Well. This was... kind of awkward. Hardly anybody she knew (and several she felt guilty about watching almost get killed). Right now, though, she had a fruit salad (and that nice Jarvis man had given her sugar to put on it), and that was good enough. (Reply to this)

	Toni was a little worried that she hadn't seen Anya in a while, but it looked like there were a couple other people gone too. She'd check in a little bit, just in case. She was lucky, she reflected, even with Charlie gone, there was a guarantee that it was a closed mission, one with a finite purpose. He would be home. Today was a day to celebrate with friends.

	Anya returned the cookout once she felt like she wasn't going to burst into tears at the thought of Steve. She sought out Toni to give her her birthday gift. Anya had gotten Toni a gift cert to the spa, earrings, and a pair of boots. She greeted Toni a small smile and offered the wrapped box. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Toni opened her gifts and gave Anya a hug. "You're too good to me, girl." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Okay, so this bunch wasn't too bad. Stevie was already on her third chili dog of the day. Dammit. She mised MC. And Bill. And Peggy. And Tommy, and Sammy. And even Mike. ...and even Mom. Just a little though. (Reply to this)

	Natasha was always glad to get out. It had been awhile since she had been back to the mansion and it would be good to see everyong. Though the circumstances were a little weird this time. She was still in Tony's body. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	redheadspy 2010-09-06 09:40 pm UTC (link)
	"How can you eat that vile stuff?" Natasha asked him referring to the relish. Natasha hated it with a passion and Tony loved the stuff. There was even a no kissing rule after he has had some. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It's, um, a bit more complicated than that," Stevie said. She was unsure how much she wanted to reveal all at once. Though if the woman was hanging out at the Avengers party, she probably knew most things. "See, the thing is, I might be his daughter." The whole male in this universe thing made that notion a lot more complicated, after all. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
