Axe's Anniversary of Birth!!!!
Charlie was pretty sure he'd missed out on a wonderful career as a party planner. As he stared out at the dance floor, which he stood over on a platform where the DJ was spinning a mix of wizard and muggle music (even with some popular French songs that were actually pretty catchy if Charlie said so himself). He wasn't surprised at how many people showed up, but it still nearly startling to see how bloody happy everyone was to be there! Sure, some looked ridiculous with the fake mustaches that were passed out (not required, obviously), but a lot had actually grown out their beards and it was----cool, they tried, they wanted to be there and they wanted to have a good time. Charlie wanted to have a good time.

The Kestrels were not top of the pack, and while he believed in his team completely, the stress of the numbers had been getting to them. A night like this was necessary, and maybe it could rejuvenate the team that had lost some valuable members this season and had done a bit of shifting around. They were still trying to get themselves into place, and it needed to happen faster than it was.

Plus, Axe had been pissy all week that no one had acknowledged the anniversary of his birth.

Charlie grabbed the mic from the DJ and grinned, enjoying colorful scene laid out in front of him. funkybuddha club had been a perfect choice for the night, "Don't everyone tire themselves out! There's still a lot more festivites to look forward to!"

Tony screeched when Wendy screeched, recoiling back in fear at the sound in his ear. Even in the loud and noisy bar she had managed to pierce his ear drums, and his teeth clenched in a surprised wince as Wendy's surprise and questions flooded out of her. He really hadn't meant to tell her, as he was sure that most people's reactions to Cho's mother being in England would be about the same, and Tony was immediately regretting that decision!

"I! No! Of course not! We just----I basically run at the sight of her and---I can't talk to her, what could I possibly say?!"

His voice was going higher with each word, and he really, really hoped someone was coming with a drink. Any sort of drink! Water, liquor, poison, anything! He just did not want to talk about this! About her! She had ruined his life and it still bloody hurt!

"That----that she----and---my baby it---" he sputtered, unable to form any sort of coherent sentence. Tony grabbed his hat and put it in his lap, wringing it tightly and busting the folds. "She---I don't need her!"

"Of course not!" As Tony's voice got progressively higher, Wendy's got progressively higher and just that much louder, so the health of the ear drums of any sober people around them might have been in question. Her tone and expression were indignant as she twisted to face her body to him, propping one hand on her hip. "You don't need her!"

Wendy was an expert at taking other people's worries and cares on for them, and an intoxicated Wendy was miles better at it, still! She leaned very close to his face and pointed at Tony, squinting her eyes in a menacing expression. "You don't need some—some hussy—" Probably not the best word she could have thought to use… also, by the sound of it, hardly accurate. And rather woman-bashing! "—who just walked away from you and that little girl! You don't need anyone!"

Even though she meant it very nicely, the words seemed a bit harsh. She didn't know if Tony wanted to need someone, but it was the truth. He was doing a better job raising Cho himself than most married parents did. Maybe he wanted someone, and that he should absolutely have—Which, if that was the case, drunk Wendy made a pledge to fix him up with every worthy single girl she knew (which, even intoxicated, knew was a very small amount, and—peculiar, she hadn't thought of that before, but anyway—!), though it was doubtful she could recall that in the morning.

Some of the exuberance left her as she laid her head down on her knees and looked at him. "You really are doing the best job."
