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.

"I can't think of any situation where that would be a good thing," Sam said.

"Maybe it's your birthday," Peter suggested.

Sam laughed. "Okay, I guess that's one good example. As long as it doesn't involve reappearing and giving me a heart attack."

"That's not the kind of action I had in mind for my healing ability," Peter said. "I have plenty of other things I could do that aren't nearly as fatal."

"You could try something not fatal at all," Sam offered. "That's always an option too."

"You're really starting to limit me, Sam," Peter said, looking woeful.

"Oh yes, I'm so cruel, wanting you to be alive and healthy," Sam deadpanned.

"Seriously," Peter said. "I'm not allowed to disappear on you either. God you're demanding."

"How about this - you can disappear if you make me disappear too?" Sam offered. "Then at least I'll know you haven't vanished for good."

"I suppose," Peter said. "But I want the same thing in return."

"In case you missed the memo, I can't make myself invisible," Sam said.

Peter rolled his eyes. "Other forms of disappearing, jackass."

"Like leaving town?" Sam asked, a little more seriously.

Re: Eat and/or drink!

"Like that," Peter said, just as seriously in turn.

"I don't have any plans to do that, unless something goes seriously wrong," Sam assured him.

Sam's first thought was to argue with Peter, to explain that if he had to leave, he'd have to leave everyone for their own safety. But he'd already been down that road once with Peter before, and it hadn't done any good. Now, they were at a party, they'd been having fun, and fighting with Peter was the last thing he wanted to do.

"Okay, I'll tell you," he said. "So you'll know if I have to go."

"I'll do the same for you," Peter promised. He finally moved his hand off of Sam's arm and smiled up at him, still visible. "See? I'm still here."

Sam found himself smiling again even as Peter broke contact. "Do you want to go back to the party? If nothing else, there's like a dozen pies there, and it would be a shame to not make sure they get eaten."

Re: Eat and/or drink!

[identity profile] repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com 2008-09-06 04:03 am (UTC)(link)
"Now that would be a crime," Peter said. "We can't let good pie go to waste. Come on."

He headed back in the direction of the lights, looking to make sure Sam was coming with him.

Sam followed, and fell into step right behind Peter the whole way.
