Anything But White Party - Stark Industries, Friday Night

The ballroom was once again set up for guests at Stark Industries, this time with a decidedly colorful theme for it. Where the color white could reasonably be avoided it was avoided: from the decorations to the lighting, to the food and drinks provided for the guests.

Because no one enjoyed a nice theme more than Tony Stark.

Steve strode across the ballroom and stared up at the new Chihuly chandelier installed over the dance floor. "When I suggested we switch out the art, I meant the kids' paintings," he said, pointing to the new, very colorful, pictures that had been blown up from construction paper size to 5 foot tall show-stoppers. "I still think the pictures of Princess Thor riding on the unicorn wins, though."

"Um," Steve said, blinking. "Welcome?"

"Hi!" Gonzo greeted. He flailed around a little, setting himself spinning. "Um. Could you help? The latch got stuck."

"I hate when that happens," Steve said with a little grin, reaching up to help. "I tend to not use the safety harnesses. It gives Tony fits."

"I'll keep that in mind next time!"

Oh no.

Steve, what have you done?

"This was definitely a fun way to come into a room," Steve said with another smile. "Thanks for not landing on the chandelier."

"You're welcome! I'll save that for my exit."

Was he joking? Only time would tell.

"Well, we have an extra if things go really pear-shaped," Steve said, "but I don't want to get it."

"What shape are they now?" Gonzo asked, with utter innocence.

Steve blinked. "That's an excellent question. I don't know where the phrase even came from. If your exit breaks our chandelier, it can be replaced, but please don't break the chandelier because I really like it. Is that better?"

"That makes total sense," Gonzo assured him. "And don't worry, I don't really weigh all that much!"

He was made of fabric and foam, after all.

"That is very reassuring," Steve agreed. "Make sure you dance and grab food and something to drink before your big exit though, okay?"

"Oh, of course!" Gonzo promised. "What good is it breaking into a party if you don't party?"

"Exactly," Steve said, just...choosing not to asking about the 'breaking in' part.

That was for the best.

"Now, which way is that dance floor?"

Steve pointed towards Steph. "Just under that chandelier."
