Wanda was spending her shift making sure Jeff was decked out in his Pride best. It involved using the giant ladder again, but falling off and breaking her ass was a sacrifice she'd be willing to make in order for Jeff to get a big rainbow boa around his neck.

"A gala," Annie echoed, shaking her head. "Are we a big enough island for an actual gala?"

Probably not actually an obstacle.

"I think we have just enough people on this island who like to wear fancy clothes to make it a decent party," Wanda said. "Like, come on, a cute maternity evening gown? That'd be fun to shop for."

"Oh, super fun to shop for," Annie agreed, nearly inviting Wanda along for the trip to do so before catching herself. That might be a little much, a little soon -- and moreover, might be a little weird for the woman who hadn't spent enough time being pregnant to even need to shop for maternity clothes? Maybe? "If I can put a suggestion in, maybe like, lighter on the glitter than Fandom formal events tend to usually be? Just for your own new-house sake."

Rich coming from the woman who wielded a literal cannon of the stuff every December.

"I'll be sure to pass the tip along to Tony," Wanda said with a nod. "He doesn't seem like the glitter type anyway. None of the Iron Man suits that I've seen have had glitter inlay in them."

Yet.

"I mean, I am a glitter person," Annie told her, "so if some sneaks past, I know where to get a vacuum that'll take care of it."

Science, rather than magic! And kind of a bonus gift for Tony in that he'd get to play with Barry's creation and likely draw inspiration to make an improved model.

"Though gotta say, I feel like Iron Man could use a little sparkle." As a sparkle expert.

"It would be distracting to foes," Wanda admitted after thinking about it for a bit. "I'm sure Steve would love it too."

"He could also use some sparkle," Annie noted, "while we're at it. This is very inspirational as far as housewarming gifts. I should be taking notes."

It was hard to even theoretically shop for the man who could buy literally everything and make anything else.

"Oh, you don't have to worry about that," Wanda said with a wave of her hand. "Tony is like...one of those people where if I think about how much money he has my brain breaks a little."

"The perfect housewarming gift is showing up to whatever party he throws," Wanda assured her. "Diego too."

Yeah that last one would be the hard thing.
