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.

"I don't think I could dance to a polka," she admitted,

Fandom did have mysterious ways, but Eve, Sean and everyone else that knew her had been very careful not to tell Gwynn about the vampire world and what the vampire version of her had done to people.

They shouldn't have said anything. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2sr48PsVbS0)

"Oh good grief." Tim almost collapsed, giggling.

Gwynn shook her head as she giggled. But she wasn't moving. She would stand right there until the music changed.

The next song (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rGKfrgqWcv0) wasn't slow, but The previous selections had effectively loosened Tim up.

"It is so weird having access to music almost a decade in advance!" Tim said. Forgetting for a moment that Gwynn would totally win in that contest.

Gwynn smirked at him as she came back to dance into his arms.

"I love this song."

Tim would love to be able to give all sorts of music geek reasons for loving the song and the band, but all he knew was, he agreed with Gwynn.

"Me too."

"Do you ever miss it here," Gwynn asked him as they started dancing to another slow song. "I mean, the day to day stuff and the invasions."

Hmm...

"Well my life has been kinda like that even outside of Fandom." he said thoughtfully. "When I get nostalgic for Fandom, mostly it's for the people that we've lost touch with."

"The gremlins are not invited to the wedding," Gwynn teased him softly.

"Aww, but think of how much fun it'd be to have an entire wedding party under the influence of a gremlin bite."

She stopped in her tracks and gave him a look filled with horror.

"My father and King will be there!"

No gremlin bites for King Phillip, Tim!

Tim sometimes forgot that she had a lot more respect (deservedly so) for her peoples' dignity than he did his. He'd seen them all act nutty enough that he wasn't sure he'd notice any difference if they got bit.

"Okay, okay." he said, conceding the point, if not the joke. "I'll take them off the list."

She laughed softly. "Now if it were just the Uncles that we had to wrorry about, well, some of them might be fun."

"See now I'm picturing the 'Merry Men' thinking they were the members of Monty Python."

"They never... okay, maybe they would if they were intoxicated enough and had gremlin bites."

"Riding in on 'horses' that are actually coconuts." Hadn't he seen Eliazane's dad actually do that once?
