Come As You Were Dance, Community Center, Saturday Evening

Originally, this was going to be a much smaller event, but then Fandom had to be Fandom and Portalocity had to be Portalocity, and now Zoe was wondering if there would be enough food for everyone or if she'd have to get things from the local restaurants.

For the moment though, everything was set up nicely. There were tables and chairs set up with blue and gold tablecloths, each covered with glitter from years of use. There were balloons, streamers, and other slightly tasteful decorations, also covered in glitter from years of being stored with things that were also covered in glitter. Don't worry, no one had died from a glitter overdose yet.

Once the food was set out and the (non-tainted) punch was ready, it seemed like things were as good to go as they'd ever be. If things got too crowded, hopefully a fire marshal wasn't among the folks who had come back to town.

"We all change. Change is necessary. Coming back here, however, has necessitated a more familiar bearing. I'm sure you recognize the need for adapting to a situation?" He didn't say, 'I've been keeping tabs,' because someone as smart as Parker already knew. And if she didn't, she wasn't half as smart as he'd thought.

"As always." And she just kind of assumed he'd kept tabs, in a distant, distinctly Principal-Bristow-ish way, Just In Case. (In case of what? Probably only he knew.) "I still got caught flat-footed when the portal grabbed me. A... friend made sure I didn't realize what this weekend was. Probably so I couldn't avoid it."

She'd have to thank Jarod for that. Maybe.

"It's not like you to get caught unawares." Was that disappointment? Heaven forfend!

"It takes a couple geniuses to do it." And she'd disliked disappointing Principal Bristow back then, and still, and unlike any disappointment from her father, his was usually justified. "... I may have to rethink some of my e-security again. Apparently. Who have you run into already?"

Everyone, whether they knew it or not, but Bristow wasn't interested in relaying mission details. "This DJ is catastrophic. I may need to call in reinforcements." That was a joke, right? Does Bristow joke?

Well, there was an entertaining image. "You have DJs on speed-dial for emergencies?" Of course he did. "You never cease to amaze, sir."

The ghost of a smirk that had been garroted, set aflame, and then dipped in acid flickered across Bristow's lips as he produced a completely ordinary pen from inside his jacket. "If you will excuse me..." (http://fandomtownies.livejournal.com/7650208.html?thread=279859616#t279859616)

Never let it be said M. Parker didn't have a sense of self-preservation. "Far be it from me to prevent better music from taking place."
