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.

"He'll learn."

And then, code help us all.

From:

Frogspawn laughs.

"He's good at learning."

Alex gets up and goes to the door.

"Woop?" he asks.

"What's that?" Frogspawn asks him.

"Woop!"

"Hm. We can't let him go downstairs, we've moved the furniture."

From:

a1enzo

"He doesn't like that?"

From:

guppy_sandhu

"No, he'll completely freak out, that's partly why we've kept him up here." Frogspawn says. "They moved the furniture at nursery once before we knew it upset him, and he cried continuously for four hours."

"Woop!" Alex requests again.

From:

a1enzo

"Ouch. Are you gonna put it back after the party?"

From:

guppy_sandhu

"Of course. We were hoping we could keep him away from the room for just two hours."

Frogspawn gets some picture cards and goes over to Alex.

"Fry, now is the party." She shows him a picture of some balloons. "We will play in here. At ten o'clock, it's bath time." She shows him a picture of a bath, and a card with a clock with little moveable hands on shaped like ten o'clock. He can't tell the time, but he can match the picture.

From:

a1enzo

"You know, I brought him a present. It's in the box with one of Guppy's, but I could bring it up here if you think it'd help keep him busy."

From:

guppy_sandhu

"That's a good idea, thanks Enzo."

From:

a1enzo

"Just a nano."

He hustles back down to the party, and returns with a triple-sized gift box.

From:

guppy_sandhu

As Enzo opens the door to come back in, Alex escapes.

From:

a1enzo

"Ahh!" Enzo drops the box, then hesitates. Should he catch him? Would that be worse?

"Alex, come back! I've got a new penguin for you!"

From:

guppy_sandhu

"Pegwin?"

Alex stops, and looks around.

"Good work Enzo." Frogspawn says, impressed. She darts out and closes the stair gate so he can't go downstairs.

From:

a1enzo

He smiles oh-so-modestly. "You have to think fast in Games. I guess it's good practice for real life. Come on, Fry. You can have your penguin, but you have to come back inside."

From:

guppy_sandhu

Fry goes back inside and sits on a cushion.

"Yeah, but you still caught on faster than his Grandma." Frogspawn says.

"Because I downloaded the documentation." Enzo picks up the package and brings it back inside.

From:

guppy_sandhu

"What documentation?" Frogspawn asks. "Did Guppy give you one of the leaflets?"

From:

a1enzo

"No, it's just an expression. I mean I listened to what he told me about him."

From:

guppy_sandhu

"Oh, well that still makes a nice change." Frogspawn smiles.

From:

a1enzo

"I do my best."

He considers the package. "Does he know how to open it, or should I do it?"

From:

guppy_sandhu

"He usually can, let's try him."

From:

a1enzo

"Okay. Here you go, Fry. Open up." He puts the box down for him.

From:

guppy_sandhu

Fry gets the paper off, but stops at the cardboard.

From:

a1enzo

Enzo raises a questioning eyebrow at Frogspawn.

From:

guppy_sandhu

Frogspawn opens the box for him.

"Oh look Fry, it's a penguin!"

"PEGWIN!"

Fry grabs the penguin, and starts to chew its beak.

"Say thank you."

"Tanyoo." Alex says, still chewing his new toy.

From:

a1enzo

"You're welcome!" says Enzo, laughing. "It's not just a toy," he tells Frogspawn. "You can heat it in the microwave and it stays hot for a few hours, or you can put it in the freezer."
