The boardwalk, Friday evening

Blair didn't have ice to work with this time, but she tried to do what she could with the location she had. Luckily the beach was pretty. Besides, too much gold in the decorations tended to cross the line into tacky.

So she kept the decorations to twinkling gold lights and candles. Most of the linens were a crisp white, with golden napkins and table runners to provide pops of color.

The bulk of the gold went into the food. There were brandied apricots, lemon and chocolate cheesecakes, mango sorbets, small cups of saffron vanilla pudding, miniature stuffed yellow peppers, and any number of foods that followed the theme, along with the pies that Ned had made.

Drinks were mixed, but naturally included Goldschläger, as well as coffee and cocoa decorated with tiny gold letters which said things like "Fandom" or "Goodbye Summer."

Blair had staked out a prime table with a view of the water. She sipped at a passionfruit martini, listened to the music coming out of the various speakers she'd had set up, and looked forward to a night of judging watching the crowd.

She was also going to make sure nobody served those skunks. Clearly they didn't know how to hold their liquor.

Summer leaned over and kissed him on the cheek.

"You did? That's totally awesome, Hinata. I'll have to come in and bug you, get my daily dose of motocross magazine."

Ned blinked and then blinked again.

"I bet you're believable," he said after a moment. "Aren't you?"

Lo, was there a somewhat awkward Ozian.

No, not Liir -- the other one.

There, in the corner and sipping on Goldschläger and apple juice (known to the Lush as a 'cinnamon stick').

He'd come out hoping to meet ... some people. You don't want to disappoint him, do you?

"We'll make it all night long too..." he said, waggling his brows at her.

Mac brightened visibly. "Then you've found the right person around here," she said. "I can definitely help with that."

"We're kind of lacking in techies around here these days."

"We have celebrities," Summer replied. "Dragons are cooler."

"I'm Sam," he said. "It's nice to meet you. I'm hoping the skunks will keep their distance from us as long as we stay away from them."

"I was told the same thing before I came here," Summer replied. "My dad seriously has no idea how weird this place actually is."

"Cute," Angela said with another smile. "I can write poetry in my coffee... Or maybe just a haiku."

"Yeeeah, the skunks scare me too," Hurley said. "You, uhhh, want some cheesecake? I probably shouldn't be eating this slice."

"I really don't know what to ask first," said Hoshi. "Are you from the future too? I'm from about the mid-22nd century."

She raised her brows at him, her lips parting as she tried to think of a good comeback to all that self-absorbed preening. She failed and her lips instead curved over the rim of her glass as she knocked back her drink.

"You kill me."

"Likewise," Joan said. "Are you new, too?"

"What, like get him to hook up with someone?" Claire asked. She sounded intrigued.

"Oh, I would love to be out in the rain," Penelope said, eyes wide and sparkling. "I've always imagined it; playing in the rain."

"I'm pretty sure Preston knew the details. He just thought it would be funny not to tell me," Meg grumbled. "Next time I see him, we're going to have a long talk."

"Well, hold on for this one," said Hoshi with a bit of a smile. "I'm from about 140 years in the future. I didn't get any warning either. They just dropped me off right at the end of the causeway."
