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.

"It's nice to meet you, Enzo. Milliways?" It's a fair assumption, and if not, ur...she'll figure something out.

How many boys from Earth-normal universes have eyes that colour, after all?

"Yeah." He grins. "I'm not even usually human."

She arches an eyebrow. "Fun change?"

"It's interesting. Took a lot of getting used to the first time."

Date: 2009-11-27 08:14 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] caring-hand.livejournal.com
She nods, "That makes sense. I don't know if I'd like a change like that much. Well...maybe."

As she's, you know, dead.

"I dunno if I'd do it that much for itself, but it's worth it to visit Userspace. Anyway, it's supposed to be a lot easier to get used to the other way around."

"Other way around?" she asks, "Can I ask...what sort of being you are normally?"

That's the most polite way she can think of asking.

Cheerfully: "I'm a computer program. We're called sprites."

Penny's eyes go slightly wide. "Really?! That's cool!"

"Thanks! I'm antivirus, Game defence, and system repair. In training."

She looks even more impressed while she munches on her snacks.

"Sounds to me like you're a handy guy to have around."

He looks modest. "I try. What do you do?"

"I...currently volunteer in Milliways," she says, flushing a bit. "I can't go home any more so, I'm doing what I can."

Date: 2009-11-28 12:54 am (UTC)
a1enzo: (human: staring)
From: [personal profile] a1enzo
"Oh." It's the 'any more' that tips him off. "Are you, uh..."

There's no polite way to ask if someone's dead, is there?

From: [identity profile] caring-hand.livejournal.com
She nods, "Yeah. Got it from flying Death Ray debris. Tragic, I hear."

She shrugs.

"There's a monument of me back home out in front of where I used to volunteer..."

Date: 2009-11-28 01:43 am (UTC)
a1enzo: (human: WTF?)
From: [personal profile] a1enzo
"That sucks."

A monument is small compensation, he's sure.

"So, wait. Not the actual Death Ray?"

Date: 2009-11-28 02:53 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] caring-hand.livejournal.com
She shrugs, "I'm getting used to it. Sorta."

There's a long pause, and a grasping at how to best explain.

"The Death Ray blew up, and when it did, the handle got me in the chest."

Date: 2009-11-28 03:26 am (UTC)
a1enzo: (human: WTF?)
From: [personal profile] a1enzo
"That's... I don't know what that is."

Nothing good.

A very Gallic shrug.

"I've got most everything that was important to me in Milliways, and I'm meeting new friends every day. Maybe it was a blessing in disguise."

Date: 2009-11-28 04:04 am (UTC)
a1enzo: (human: askance)
From: [personal profile] a1enzo
"I hope so."

Enzo's not sure he could see it so optimistically. He loves Milliways, but he loves his home even more.

She takes another bite of food.

"There's no sense in being upset about it, if you ask me. Doesn't do any good."

Date: 2009-11-28 06:02 am (UTC)
a1enzo: (human: happy)
From: [personal profile] a1enzo
"That's true. And there's worse places to be dead!"

It's possible that came out wrong.

Date: 2009-11-28 06:28 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] caring-hand.livejournal.com
She agrees, "Granted there's probably better two, but at least I have my friends..."

That probably came out weird too.

"That's the most important thing," he says, and means it.

Date: 2009-11-28 06:48 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] caring-hand.livejournal.com
She nods. "And making new ones is too!"

She likes new friends.
