Happy Birthday Cait (Open)

Vlad jolted awake at his desk and looked at the clock in disoriented panic. Shoot, past breakfast. Ugh, why had he let himself doze off?
 
He glanced at what he'd been up all night working on, at least it was done. Frankly, he'd been stuck on what to get Cait for her birthday, presents were always hard, so he finally settled on making her something. Unfortunately with the short time frame it meant avoiding her for a few days and pulling some late nights, as evidenced by the pile of red bulls on his desk. Next present he'd have to start earlier...this just wouldn't do.
 
In a hurry, Vlad changed and tried to look like he didn't just try and pull an all nighter and dozed off on his desk. He couldn't do anything much about the ink stains on his hands, washing only got rid of so much of those. He quickly rolled up the paper and tied it with the ribbon he'd set aside before picking up the card too and jogging down the stairs to go find Cait and wish her (not as early as he'd hoped) a happy birthday.

"Hrm. Hadn't given it much thought," she admitted. "What are you in the mood for?"

"Hmmm." He does turn though and bend his knees slightly should she want to hop back on for the ride down. "Nothing too dark I guess, but really it's up to you." Vlad grinned and glanced over his shoulder at her. "Yep, I know, not very helpful."

Cait did indeed hop on his back to get a ride down. "I was thinking a Pixar movie. Maybe the Incredibles?"

"That works! And we can all be happy the xmen uniforms don't have capes."

"Yes," Cait said. "Edna is awesome though. Maybe we could talk the Professor into hiring a fashion consultant so our uniforms don't clash."

"Why not? Individualized team uniforms aren't bad," he chuckled as he walked back towards the kitchen with her piggybacking on. "Most stylish incarnation of the xmen? Not too hard given some of the old uniforms..."

"They are when they clash," Cait said. "We shouldn't clash. It's just wrong."

Vlad laughs. "Well I was thinking more of a consistent team one with only minor differences between people. If we want to talk clashing we should talk Mom's old uniforms. Now those..." Yeah those were the definition of clashing. "But I promise I won't clash, especially not with yours."

"I've seen pictures of those," Cait said. "But yes, uniforms that are a little more consistent across the team."

"If you haven't seen pictures of all of them I know where to find them," Vlad grinned. "So we look like a proper sorta super team? That works."

"I'd love to see them," Cait said as she held on tightly. "Something like that."

"Nobody lets mom live those down, they are suitably hilarious. Her excuse is that she was like 13, but still, they're fun to see," Vlad responded as he casually strolled down the stairs, she was very light to him after all. "Should I ask for an autograph ahead of time before you get swamped with requests?"

"I bet," she said. "Oh I'm not going to do them. I'm not good at matching clothes. Someone else can do it."

"Oh no, I meant get your autograph before you're a big superhero with a snazzy uniform and swamped with fans," he laughed. "And I'm far worse about clothes than you." This was after all the guy who rarely got fully dressed for breakfast. Clothes just weren't a big care to him.

"I never want to be famous," she said. "Just do some good and be happy."

"I don't think being famous would be very fun," he mused as they got to the main floor.

"You're well on your way then," he smiled and put her down at the kitchen so he could retrieve the popcorn. "Air Rasputin thanks you for using our services and hopes it customer satisfaction was high."

Cait jumped off his back and then gave him a kiss. "Thank you. It was the best."

"Only doing my duty," he saluted with a wink before fishing the popped popcorn bag out of the microwave.

He poured the popcorn into a large bowl and leaned against the counter while he waited for her, occasionally trying to balance the bowl on his head.

Since this was a special occasion, birthdays only happened once a year, she poured two sodas. She laughed when she saw Vlad balancing popcorn bowls on his head.

Her laughing broke him out of his concentration face and he grinned back as he took a bowl of his head. "So what vegetable are we being today?"

"We're going to be couch potatoes today," Cait said with a smile. "What else would we be?"
