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.

"Do you think TAing is punishment?" Cal asked, because if she wanted to do it, then it kind of defeated the purpose, didn't it? "And did I hear exploding pie?" not dirty

"Well, yeah, in that he can order me to do a bunch of things I don't want to do," Ino said. "But it also means that if he's out sick I get to run the class, and can lay the smackdown on anyone who acts up. And that's a nice shiny perk."

A beat.

"And, yes, exploding pie."

"Because Anemone and I planted one in his office?"

There was a bit of a long pause there.

And then a grin.

"...Niiiiiice."
