guppy_sandhu | Guppy's 30th Birthday Party

Having collected everyone from the bar, Guppy leads them back through to the house, where they enter through the kitchen.

The living room furniture has been mostly moved out of the way, and that's where the most of the party has been set up. The sofa and some chairs are around the edge of the room, and there's music playing. The kitchen is a bit small so the food is being taken through into the dining room. Also a little on the small side, but enough for purpose. All of the baby gates are open on the ground floor, but not on the stairs.

Upstairs, the spare bedroom has been set aside for any little people at the party. It's a bit quieter, with baby-sized food, some toys, and a DVD of Pingu playing.

If the baby will not come to the party, a small and manageable portion of the party must come to him! Enzo drops in after a while, to visit Alex and any other small persons who may have joined him.

"Hi Enzo!" Frogspawn waves as he comes in. "Do you want some food?"

Alex doesn't acknowledge him at the moment because he's engrossed in Pingu. It's not that he doesn't care, really...

"Hi, Frogspawn! I already had cake downstairs..."

Which does not mean he will not have a look at what the food up here is.

"How's it going?"

From:

It's general kids' party food; weeny little sandwiches, finger food, crisps and stuff.

"It's going well, and how are you?"

She peers over at Alex.

"Fry, come and say hello to Enzo."

"Enzo." Fry says, without taking his eyes off the TV.

"I'm good! Vacation's almost over."

He smirks at Fry. "I guess that counts? Hi, Fry."

"You go to Sprite School?" Frogspawn asks, offering him a Party Ring biscuit (the kind that are on the LS icon).

The theme tune from Pingu signals the end of the episode, and Fry looks around at Enzo.

So that's what they're called.

"I go to the Guardian Academy," Enzo declares a trifle smugly. "There you are, Fry!"

"Oh wow, that sounds cool!" Frogspawn says, sitting cross-legged on the floor. "How long does it take to train to be a guardian?"

Fry crawls over and tries to take Enzo's biscuit.

"Fry, you can have this one." Frogspawn says quickly, dangling a purple on in his direction. "That one is Enzo's."

"Six years, if I pass all my exams first time. It's a big function. I'm starting my third year." He takes a hasty bite of his biscuit.

"So you get like weapons training and stuff?"

She breaks Alex's biscuit into smaller bits.

"Alex, you have to chew these."

From:

a1enzo

"Weapons, unarmed combat, tactics, system repair, Game studies, all kinds of things. I'm gonna try to get some medic training as an elective."

Yes, your husband is to thank for that.

"Ooh, sounds action packed. I'm a physiotherapist."

"Oh, yeah, I think Guppy told me that. That and something about kittens?"
