Cookout
There had been an invitation for Excalibur to attend a cookout with the Defenders for Independence Day. Quinn was a Brit by birth, but he had spent half of his life in New York. He considered himself a Yankee as well as a Brit.

When it was time he teleported all from Excalibur who wanted to go to the Defenders compound. Quinn was looking forward to a day in the sun, on the beach and watching girls in bikinis with a lot of good food on hand. Not to mention Asgardian mead. It would truly be a wonderful day.

They arrived in a flash right outside the gates to the compound. It was rude to arrive inside the gates and Quinn didn't feel like fighting. He was a lover, not a fighter.

	"Oh, we were dragged all over the place. Ancient mystic realms, Vikings...it was months before we were anywhere with a hairdryer. I actually got a knighthood, but don't tell Uncle Steve. It's illegal in the States, you know...." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It's only illegal if you get caught, luv. Mum's the word." He gave her a wink. "I'm envious. Excalibur only gets to deal with the crazy and the bizarre. Nothing like hopping through time and other dimensions." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"We got pissed off leprechauns after us making our lives hell for a few months and for some reason I have a drag queen thinking he/she/it is in love with me. We also have people thinking they're King Arthur and his knights who do nothing more than get in our way."

Quinn shook his head. Some of it, most, sounded so absurd to his own ears.

"Can I get you something to drink or eat?"

	"Oh dear. Leprechauns, knights, and unrequited love." She giggles a little. "I'm sorry to hear it. I could really go for some cranberry juice, thank you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"As the lady commands," he said with a wide grin. "I will be right back." Quinn went to the table of drinks and poured her a glass of cranberry juice and grabbed a beer for himself. "As requested," he said when he returned and offered the cup. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You're welcome." Quinn shook his head. "Not a bloody thing. I even was married, only for twenty four hours, but not even the sodding marriage certificate will get her off my back." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well, that's persistance. Bright side, at least she isn't here." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"The downside is that I think she's a reality warper, so I wouldn't be surprised if she did show up here." Quinn took a pull from his bottle of beer. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Quinn nodded. "Twenty four hours later when we were both sober. It was one helluva a night." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2011-07-06 11:17 pm UTC (link)
	"It sounds it. But me? I must admit, I prefer to stay fairly sober through the whole process." She steps a little closer, smiling. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	A slow smile stretched his mouth. "I'm thinking maybe this should be a day of light drinking. What do you think, luv?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She grins. "Probably so, unless they start up a contest." Something catches the corner of her eye. "But right now, I gotta check on the spouse. Talk to you later, handsome." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
