Look what time it was! It was time to get everyone piled into the bar to make friends and/or bad decisions!

The bar was decked out for Valentine's Day, with a lot of tacky-classic red and pink decor to go along with the huge banner draped across the wall of the stage, lovingly made by the Glitter class, reading:

WELCOME TO
THREE MINUTE DATES

Everyone was free to mingle until a couple minutes before 8:00, when Kitty took to the stage.

"Good evening, everybody! And welcome to Three Minute Dates! If you're new, the rules are as such: we'll call pairs of names. You pair up, you chat, get to know each other as well as you can in three minutes, and then the bell will sound and I'll call out different sets of names, and so on, and so forth. Physical violence will get you magically transported out, don't hook up in the bathrooms, and have fun. You've got a couple minutes to still sign up if you want!"

Raiden had noticed the marshmallow storm, of course, but he'd been in enough of a hurry to see how things were at Over Easy that he'd been able to mostly ignore it on his way there. "Everything looks great, guys, I'm really proud of you for keeping it going without me or Gray. Well. Mostly me." Raiden could be realistic about some things. "What've we got going for specials? Are they Christmas-y enough? Remember where we are. And who my brother is...yeah, those'll do! Oh, and, uh...don't let me go outside for a while, okay? No, I'm sure catching them out of the air is fine but I will eat the ground marshmallows."

Raiden was spending a lot of time on the phone today.

"Tell me you already took the turkey out of the freezer. In fact, tell me you took the turkey out of the refrigerator on Friday."

"We bought ham for Arden, right? I assume she is. I haven't asked her. Shit, I should ask her. Look, buy the ham anyway."

"What do you mean none of the grocery stores in Echo Bay have brussels sprouts?"

"No, we need both kinds of cranberry sauce. Because Daman and Galen will fight, is why. And yes, I do need all of that cheese, do you hear yourself talking? I always need all of that cheese."

Running Thanksgiving from the opposite coast was stressful, it turned out. Maybe next year he made his whole family come to him.

Today at Over Easy, people were chatting about their Thanksgiving plans, and eventually someone asked Raiden if he had plans yet, as if he somehow gave the impression that he hadn't had the menu planned out a month ago. He wasn't sure how to feel about that, if he was honest. Did they doubt him so?

Nah, he was over it. He had chicken fried eggs to consume.

"No," Raiden said firmly when he saw the boxes the staff were hauling out at Pizza Planet. "Absolutely not. No Christmas until after Thanksgiving." He was going to have enough to do with fending off Gray over at Over Easy; he didn't need to be waging the real war on Christmas on two fronts. "Come on, guys, give me a break here--no, we're not putting a peppermint mocha pizza on the specials board? What is wrong with you?" In more than one way.

There was a brunch place in town, yes. And it was even a really great brunch place at that! But sometimes it wasn't really in your budget. And sometimes you just wanted the comfort food of a really shitty 24 hour chain of restaurants where the servers will throw hands.

And that was where Riri was this morning, still in the pumpkin onesie, blissfully enjoying these overly greasy potatoes and overcooked eggs.

Life was good!

As at Over Easy, so at Pizza Planet, which was to say that the pizza place was getting in the spooky season mood.

It was still a no on fake spiderwebs, though. Seriously, they were dangerous for wildlife. And squirrels. Never mind that the staff all seemed like they really wanted to tell Raiden something when he reminded them the squirrels might get caught in the webs.

Surely no one would want the squirrels to get caught. Right?...Right?

Raiden was allowing the staff at Over Easy to decorate for Halloween. Within reason. He didn't want it to look like a haunted house in here, and if he didn't set guidelines fast Gray would go overboard on Wednesday.

"No, no fake cobwebs! They're terrible for small animals. Will no one think of the squirrels?"

Entrapping the squirrels might have been the idea, actually, but no one was going to admit it to Raiden.

Today at Pizza Planet, Raiden was greeted by staff who wanted to show him a TikTok.

"...no. Absolutely not. There are limits. Are they--I don't think they even heated it up, are they just gonna serve it cold? You know what, get out of my kitchen. Get out."

After having it pointed out to him that that would mean running the restaurant solo, Raiden decided they were allowed to stay if they never spoke of this abomination again.

It did inspire him, though. He could do this better.

Raiden had seen something on TikTok, and he was going to make it happen.

"I don't care if crab rangoons aren't 'traditional brunch fare.' Who decides what's traditional? Tradition is just peer pressure from dead people anyway, and besides, you can have crab rangoons for lunch. It's part of the portmanteau. It's fine.

Was Raiden a little bit nervous about his brothers seeing his new restaurant for the first time? Honestly, yes, even though one of them had done most of the interior design and the other two could not care less about interior design. Look, nerves didn't have to make sense.

It was a lot quieter today at Pizza Planet, and hopefully a lot more likely to withstand an inspection from the Health Department.

Things were in a bit of a state at Over Easy, what with having to make sure they had options on hand for, oh, any random animal that might walk in the door with one of their humanoid patrons today, plus the staff all having their own animal companions to deal with. Raiden didn't know whose rhinoceros that was waiting outside the back door, and he was a little afraid to ask.

"Look, if the health department shows up just tell them to come back next week, all right? Well if something else is happening then we'll just deal with that next week--Effie! Effie, drop it!" His daemon gave him huge sad puppy eyes around several rashers of raw bacon. "It's better cooked!"

Efthumia spit the bacon out. "Oh, well, if you'll cook it for me..."

"Might as well." It wasn't like they could serve it to anyone else now.

Today at Pizza Planet, Raiden could be found trying to chase down the delivery guy.

"Hey! Hey, I think you meant to take these to El Burrito Loco!"

Were you tired of glitter yet? Because the banner above the stage reading "WELCOME TO THREE MINUTE DATES" was covered in it. Which meant the stage was covered in a fine mist of them. Which meant there was probably some of the tables. And the bar. Not the drinks, though, they kept up with standards.

And a few minutes before 8:00, Kitty took to the stage.

"Welcome again to Three Minute Dates!" she greeted them. "If you haven't done this before, the tiles are simple. Every three minutes, we'll read off pairs of names. You sit down with them, get to know them for three minutes, and when the gong bongs, you'll move on to your next march. After five dates, if you want to talk to anyone more, hang around and chat for a while. Ready? You've got a couple minutes to sign up, then we're gonna get going."

Today at Pizza Planet, they were still trying to clean the glitter out of things, and it felt...quiet.

Too quiet.

"Maybe it's finally tired of throwin' stuff at us," Raiden suggested optimistically, and then peeked out the front windows again to see if Jell-o dragons were roaming the streets or something.

"Just do whatever you have to to keep the glitter out of the food," Raiden told his staff. "It's not food grade and it's going to be a texture problem." Don't ask him how he knew.

"But this is the perfect time for--"

Raiden saw what the cook who had protested was holding and cut him off. "You're right. I'll allow it."

When Raiden had decided to throw a Labor Day cookout at the beach, he'd had a couple of stumbling blocks. First, he'd envisioned it happening on Labor Day, which hadn't ended up working out, which had been, uh, probably for the best, it turned out. Second, he hadn't been able to spend the day before the party doing prep because of the reason the delay had turned out being a good idea, but he'd managed to get it all together in a flurry of activity today.

Third, he hadn't been able to decide between a fish fry or a seafood boil. So, in true Gluttony fashion, he'd decided to do both! Which meant he was manning both the fryer and the boil pot, a flower crown perched at a jaunty angle over his backwards baseball cap, plus there was plenty of other food for people who weren't feeling the fruits of the sea, and a whole table of dessert. You fancying coconut cake? Chocolate cake? Key lime pie? Banana pudding? Raiden's got you covered.

There was also a bonfire going, and downwind of the rest of the setup there was a fire pit, with a table with s'mores fixings and a handmade sign reading 'Marshmallow Containment Zone.' And, of course, there was plenty of beachy fun to be had, but mostly food. A lot of food.

Come on down to the beach, everyone! Stretch summer out one more day, and maybe eat a whole lot of shrimp in the bargain.

When Raiden arrived at Pizza Planet on Monday morning, the only person there before him was mixing up the dough and he went straight back to his office, so he didn't notice anything out of the ordinary at first. He didn't even notice that he smelled like pizza, because everything smelled like pizza.

It was only when he emerged from his paperwork haze, and his office, to discuss the specials with the rest of the staff that he noticed.

"Huh," he said after a moment, and then sniffed his arm. Yep. He sure did smell like pizza. "I...have to go. Away. I have to go away." Before he took a bite out of somebody. Possibly himself. Maybe if he got off the island?

"But what about the specials?" Tito called after him as he headed for the door.

"Do whatever you want!" Raiden called over his shoulder as he texted Gray and Arden to please let him know when it was safe to come back. Hopefully before tomorrow. He had a party to throw.

Well.

The island's weirdness had finally truly found its way to Over Easy, in the form of a delivery.

The staff had all gathered around to stare at it, in all its gelatinous, mayonnaise-y...glory?

"You don't have to eat it," one of them told Raiden. "You can just leave for the picnic."

"No," Raiden said, in case anyone had been wondering why Gluttony was a curse. "I'm gonna."

Arden hadn't made a terribly big deal about it, but today was her twentieth birthday. Kind of a shock that she'd only been on the island and out from Callista's thumb - mostly - for only two years now.

Originally, she'd planned to have her party in Midnight, but after everything with Illyana the other day, it felt...rude, almost. To throw a party so close to where she was grieving. Maybe she was just being overcautious and weird? But since she could throw the same kind of party she'd been thinking about in town as easily as she could Midnight, she was going to just be overcautious and weird.

So, welcome to the Holoscene! It was currently configured to look like a cabana on a tropical beach, though the interior of the cabana was a karaoke setup. Again, things she could have had elsewhere, but this ocean wouldn't be whispering Come away, come away... in anybody's ears, and this karaoke setup didn't involve zombies, both of which seemed a perfectly valid reason to use a holodeck program to recreate them, okay?

There was, of course, a whole smorgasbord of (real) food off to one side, with real proper barbecue, along with party platters from Sushi Station, Taste of Thai, and El Burrito Loco, as well as a bunch of pizzas from Pizza Planet and a whole Build Your Own Waffle station, courtesy of Over Easy and there specifically because Gray would never have forgiven her if she hadn't included it. There were floats and kayaks and jetskis out by the water, but no sunscreen because who needed it with a fake sun?

And Arden was just chilling in a beach chair for now, in a bikini, enjoying the view of a glittering ocean in front of her, waiting for people to show up.

[Open! If you have ever, even one time, had a conversation with Arden, then you got an invite!]

Raiden had initially planned on throwing a Labor Day/informal last day of summer beach bonfire party, but ~~Gluttony probably shouldn't host a party on the day everyone has a flavor unless we want an awkward cannibalism incident~~ he had run into a few logistical difficulties.

No matter! He could pivot, and thus today he was putting up flyers around town, whistling Taylor Swift songs (off key) in celebration of her good news as he went:

ONE MORE DAY OF SUMMER!
Beach Bonfire/Fish Fry/Seafood Boil
Tuesday, September 2
The Beach, Afternoon Through Evening
Contact Raiden For Details

He was trying to make sure to put some of the flyers at more like, say, Gray's eye level, so most people could read them. How successful he was being was anyone's guess.

(Mostly establishy, but open if anyone wants to bump into Raiden!)

Raiden had finished writing the specials board for Pizza Planet and stepped back to admire it when he noticed there was a theme.

A very bacon-y theme.

"Huh. Well, I'm not mad at it," he decided, then called back toward the kitchen, "Hey, make sure you prep some extra bacon. For snacks."

There were extra peaches in the delivery today at Over Easy. Raiden wasn't complaining. Raiden was never gonna complain about fresh, in-season peaches. Besides, it wasn't an unmanageable amount or anything.

The zucchini, though...well, the zucchini was doing what zucchini in August did, but that wasn't the island being weird. That was his employees being desperate.

"Okay, listen up! You cannot get rid of your excess zucchini by sneaking it into the walk-in! I'm making a rule right now. What? Can you leave it in your coworkers' cars? Sure. That doesn't mess up our inventory."

Out of all of their brothers, Raiden and Gray were the most reluctant warriors, so one might have thought that they would have slacked off on their training when left unsupervised on the opposite coast from the others. One would have been wrong. Gray and Raiden might not like their job, but they took it, and the deal with the archangels that necessitated it, very seriously. Their brothers' lives were on the line as well as their own, after all, to say nothing of the humans who needed protection from demons up to no good.

So, on this particular afternoon, one could follow the clang of steel on steel down to the beach and find a couple of Nephilim engaged in sword practice--shirtless, so they could have their wings out (you were welcome) for greater maneuverability.

"That was good," Raiden said as he hauled Gray out of the sand. "One more time."

Gray and Sloth both wanted desperately to suggest they just take a break now, but Gray shoved Sloth down, shook the sand out of his wings and hair, and agreed, "One more time." And then probably a few more after that.

The emphasis on summer produce would continue until summer ended.

Yes, Raiden knew broccoli wasn't a summer crop. He had lived most of his life before broccoli became available year round in the grocery store. But it was in the walk-in, so it was getting used.

Raiden spent part of his Saturday morning explaining to the staff why they wouldn't be featuring pastry on the specials board too often. "I don't want to step on the bakery's toes. They've got their thing and they do it well. Besides, I'm not great at pastry. No one on staff is that great at pastry." It was almost like there was a great-at-pastry-shaped hole in the NPC staff that might be filled at some point in the distant future when his player got off her ass and worked through his canon until he met his soulmate who was coincidentally great at pastry. Weird.

Now that Summer had an actual property for her new storefront on Ravnica (with everything pretty much set up from the last business to carry over extremely well into her business), she was itching to get back there and get started with making this latest dream a reality, but, with the timing, she was definitely thinking she could get in one last shift in at Caritas before her attention shifted entirely to other enterprises.

Well. It was all still jello, but...you know what she meant.

But you better believe that if this was her last shift for a while, that she was going to go out with an absolutely disgusting bang.

Koala sitting hadn't necessarily put a damper on Summer's work in trying to figure out what to do about her jello enterprise in Ravnica, but it did sort of make it slightly slower going than she would have liked. Since she was so distracted with all of that, though, she didn't have time to put a lot of thought into what to do for her shift at the bar tonight. Thankfully, a quick look through her pantry to do some inventory on what she had and what might need used up before she completely switched gears to another plane for a while, helped her get some inspiration.

Or, at the very least, find something that she had way too much of that she should probably use up soon.

Three guesses as to what type of booze in particular seemed to have been collecting a lot of dust among all the vodka, rum, and gin...

Maybe more like a gremlin situationship in the process of breaking up, from what Tito could tell.

"Okay, just, uh...close the door and don't open it. And maybe turn the music up a notch or two."

He hoped the problem would stay in the supply closet. If gremlins tried to take their squabbling near his pizza he was going to get after them with a broom.

There were a few fireworks themed chandeliers set up in the center of the room to drive home the celebration as well. And a wide selection of foods that Steve liked most. So all the foods. It was all the foods, but straight-forward stuff (burger bar, taco bar, hot dog bar, ice cream sundae bar with a chocolate fountain (because who didn't want a chocolate fountain on their birthday?)), and not appetizer portions. And pie! Either because Steve liked pie or because Tony thought it was hilarious.

Or both.

And after all of that, there would be a birthday cake with a truly obnoxious number of candles and a 'fireworks' show that was visible from the ballroom windows if you didn't want to brave a trip to the roof. It was actually a drone show because Tony was Tony. And the noise would be something else if they did actual fireworks.
