Barton-Pryde Baby Shower, The Onsen - Monday Afternoon

[imafuturist]

The Onsen was decorated in tastefully gender neutral pastel greens and yellows with a sign directing guests of the shower to where they were meant to go. And, for a change, the island wasn't doing something strange to mess up a party!

...no one point out that just saying that was jinxing things. Just go on in and enjoy the party, hoping that no nefarious brotherhood of evil anythings showed up.

Fair warning, Hardison and Tony might have gone a little overboard on their own gifts.

Look, all Kanan could carry here was a card. And so, a card. It was pretty tasteful, with the exception of the feline teeth-marks in it, and the inside was kind of a mess of ink splatters and one messy tooka pawprint, stupid little chickeny feet that they were.

He'd tried. He'd do better when he had thumbs again.

There was no card with Rosa's gift, because she was pretty confident that Kitty would be able to figure out who had gotten that particular onesie, that pacifier, and the tiniest leather jacket she could find.

That last one might be a while for the kid to grow into, but Rosa'd be damned if she didn't try to make this baby cool as hell.

Half the fun of going to a baby shower was getting to show for super cute gifts. Of course, Summer did include a very practical gift card for Turtle & Canary in her card (with the express instructions that it was only to be used for baby supplies OR booze, which ever was needed most), but also a super cute gift basket, which she had a really difficult time choosing because there were seriously a lot of super cute baby things out there and she kind of wanted to buy them all, but that might be a little over the top, and she just hoped she hadn't wound up picking something that would, like, remind anyone of some bad run-ins they'd had with any rabid alien space-foxes or anything like that...

The first of Mike's gifts was soft one, containing a 'swaddle scarf' that would probably double as a kind of a blanket. Yes, he'd gone for that one because of the text, and you'd get no points for guessing that.

His second gift baby handprint kit because he was nothing but a sentimental fool.

Bobby had found a series of books- okay, HANK had found a series of books and emailed Bobby the links to purchase them online. Hank had also vetoed the tiny archery set Bobby had wanted to get, advising him to wait until the kid had at least developed fine motor skills. (He'd also pointed out that Bobby knew nothing about archery and picking out that sort of thing was better left to Hawkeye anyway. Which Bobby grudgingly had to admit was probably a good point.)

From Jack and Emma there was an absolutely ridiculous stroller. Because they were living the complete NYC lifestyle and why go for anything other than the best?

Steve (with Jan's help because Jan had gotten very invested in the idea of Clint having a kid), had found this onesie (and this one and this one), and a certificate for a housekeeper to come over once a week for the first six months.

From Éponine, there was a bag containing three stuffed animals: a rabbit, a penguin, and an elephant, all of which were ridiculously soft and cuddly.

There was also a nice bottle of wine, with a hand-scrawled note on it indicating that it was for Kitty and Clint, and absolutely not at all for the baby.
