It wasn't Rey's first time turning little, but it was the first time since she'd found everything out about herself, and today was… a lot. Not bad. But a lot. She was in such a different place now, and she wasn't used to that mindset anymore, which had made the change back feel a little jarring. And she missed her parents.

It didn't help that she still had to undo some things from the weekend. For instance, her tiny self had gotten into the huge pantry and put together a little go bag in case it was needed, and now her adult self got to put it all back. At the same time, it was a shame it wasn't a bigger project to keep her occupied. She'd go slow.

[For one!]

Did Lili know that she technically ran this store? No she did not. Did she know that today was the day she was normally in the store, ostensibly 'working'? Also no. What she did know was that she was looking for a super fun present to surprise Ignis with and this place seemed to have so many good treasures!

And also there was a crate. Just waiting to be opened. Because what was a crate except a really big present?

She knew she should wait for a grownup. But also, she had a crowbar (probably a bad idea) and a can-do attitude (honestly worse) and with just a little more work, she could probably get this thing open! Wheee!

Did Pam expect a lot of customers today, considering what Adrian had told her about the kids? No. But she'd left the swamp yesterday to make something of a detour to a local recycling plant - and since for the first time in months there was no time pressure riding on her shoulders, she figured she might as well stop by the store.

Most of the product had remained as-is, but there was a whole lot more children's bubble bath on the shelves than she remembered.

"I'm not going to check the ingredients," she muttered, as she walked past those shelves towards the counter. "I am not."

Vi was not sorry to have missed the latest round of weirdness, the previous time that had happened had been enough to stir up some very uncomfortable feelings, and she hadn't needed a repeat.

The displays, however, had not seemed to have gotten the message.

Gregorith was feeling so much better. He could breathe, he was no longer in pain, though he still had a horrific sounding cough so he was still wearing a mask. Other demons (Asmodeus) might still have been convalescing at this stage of a cold, but Gregorith was a ~~workaholic~~ dedicated professional so here he was.

And a bit confused. He didn't know that some of the island residents had gone wee tiny so he wasn't certain why the exhibit hall seemed to have converted itself to what appeared to be a life size, walk through diorama of a forest with helpful and colorful signs saying what all the trees and plants were, and statues of local fauna, also with signs.

There was also a facsimile ~~woah I spelled that right the first time~~ of the school and the lighthouse that kids could crawl around in. Oh and a cave with a slide.

Actually he was a bit jealous that he was too tall to play in there.

Also an arts and crafts station had appeared in the gallery upstairs.

The museum is open and kid friendly!

Harley had been bouncing around off the island for the past week or so, after the Slaughter Swamp incident and the surprise visit to New York that had followed. She'd actually been planning (as much as Harley planned anything) to continue on in that same vein - but then there had been a phone call about a delivery on the island, for an order that she'd completely forgotten about.

So she'd had to rush back to Fandom to let some big burly delivery guys into the building, so that they could bring in the big honkin' canopy bed she'd ordered while on the fall break trip. Because there'd been canopy beds there, and she'd kind of been between beds for a while now, and was easily influenced sometimes when it came to treating herself, and, you know. That whole thing.

So that had been her morning.

By noon, things upstairs in the apartment were settled - a mess, but settled! - and the store door was open, and Harley was downstairs, puttering around with a giant mug of coffee.

Considering taking the Halloween decor down. Not actually doing it yet.

Last night had been a restless one, and once settled behind his desk at the station, Watts found himself eyeing the space beneath his desk with occasional longing as he contemplated just a little nap to catch up on his sleep.

No. No naps. There was work to do. Phone calls about alcohol-stealing raccoons to answer.

It needs to be soon.

"It needs to be when the time is right," Thor countered Don, who was sitting, to his eye, on his usual barstool. Since he was not sitting there to anyone else's eye, Tiny gave Thor the side eye at this proclamation, and Thor told him blandly, "The Christmas tree, of course."

Guys played by Chris Hemsworth were united in insisting on appropriate seasonality of Christmas decorations, apparently.

Thursday found Steven at his usual spot behind the Welcome Desk. He'd unearthed an old binder of Blathers' about events on the island that were from years ago.

Currently Steven was reading up on something about a zombie invasion which happened two decades prior.

Steven couldn't help but imagine what it would be like to get caught in something like that. Assuming he ever was caught in something like that instead of someone else taking his job for some reason.

Preposterous idea, really. Who would even think of such a thing?

Steven continued his reading, though of course he was interruptible should anyone need him.

Gray was losing the war for Christmas. For now. Soon enough Thanksgiving there would be over and there would be no stopping the onslaught of Yuletide cheer.

At least that was what he told himself when the workers at Over Easy once again refused to put up a tree yet, because the boss would look unhappy at them. They just needed a few thousand years to build up immunity to that look, was all.

Adrian was flipping through an ecological magazine he'd snagged while out on the mainland. There was an article about turning recycled plastics into clothing, which seemed cool on the surface until you realized that once the plastics got turned into clothing, they couldn't be recycled again. With a small chuckle, he left a Post-It with Check this out, Pam! tucked into the magazine, already imagining her reaction.

Sometimes, the thing you needed to get back onto an even keel is just some light, good-natured trolling of your boss.

It had happened earlier that morning, like a promise of all the mornings ahead where they'd be roughly pulled out of sleep by the demands of a tiny little human, but Prompto was ready, he was preparing for this since....well, all of last month, really, so getting Liz to the hospital to have their baby went....

Well, he wouldn't use the word smoothly, there was no small amount of chaos, but it did go quickly, and then once there? It was just a matter of time and a lot of anxious pacing on Prompto's part and a lot of...well...a lot more work on Liz's. And a lot of questions from Noctra that Prompto thought he'd be prepared for, but...well...there was just a lot going on, okay, interspersed with moment of waiting that made for an interesting juxtaposition.

Finally, though, he was able to send out the text announcement to friends and family that he'd been itching to send out since...well, all of last month, really:

Welcome to the world
Trevor Corleonis Argentum!!!

He, of course, included loads of pictures of the wrinkly little boy, especially with his proud mama and very uncertain looking big sister, and mentioned how everything had gone really well, hospital room information if anyone wanted to swing by with well-wishes or whatever else, and then he was going to be completely over the moon over this new additional bright light in their lives.

A feeling Marc was going to chalk up to restlessness had him doing a walk around the island with no particular goal in mind other than to walk around the island.

Once the path brought him by the Perk, he figured what the hell. Grab a coffee and maybe a box of something to leave in the boarding house kitchen for whoever wanted anything.

Marc wasn't examining that instinct too closely either.

(Obviously he would get something for Watts and Steven too. That part went without saying.)

He was in no rush, though, so he grabbed a coffee and a muffin for himself and took a seat at a table by the windows. Then, long as he was taking a load off, he got out his phone to text Crawley to see how things were back home.

It was a much rejuvenated Pam who opened up Pick Your Poison on that Monday morning, having spent much of Sunday back in Slaughter Swamp. Harley-her-Harley had shown up with gardening supplies, and they'd made good work that day.

It wasn't like she expected Harley to commit to gardening for long. It was Harley. But the day had made her happy.

And now she was back here, setting the shop to rights. Looking at everything on the shelves with new eyes. Around noon, she stole into the garden at last and took her shoes off, putting her feet in the dirt.

There'd been a lot of damage done here, too. She was going to enjoy spending the rest of her day coaxing it all back to life.

Today's shipment was already in the display window, a truly fascinating pair of leather gloves. Well, okay, one of the gloves was in the window; she was currently studying the other in an attempt to puzzle out the glyphs and runes that had been inscribed into them. She had a basic idea of what they did, but that wasn't anywhere near the same as knowing precisely what each rune did, and how, and why.

Flyers weren't really Ignis's style, but invitations...now, those were a far more fitting method of spreading the news about an upcoming party, in his opinion, and more appropriate for the type of party it was, anyway. An invitation (especially a well-made one, expensive, though certainly worth the cost in this instance) was far more personal, could be held, with the weight of the exquisite paper it was printed on, durable and with an almost velvet-like finish, better appreciated. With careful, embossed text, raised just enough that one could follow the graceful shape of the letters by running their fingers over it. Details in sumptuous gold, rich purple, striking black. Even from the envelope, there would surely be no doubt as to what the contents inside might pertain to, but upon opening it, it would be confirmed:

Ignis Scientia
cordially invites you to celebrate
Liliana Vess
for her upcoming birthday
(As if we would even need a reason)

SATURDAY 15 NOVEMBER 2025
at the Mansion in the Woods

Please join us for an afternoon of fine food, wine and company
And an evening of excellent music and dancing

Dress to Impress | Presents Encouraged
555-CHEF for any questions

Hopefully, each invitation would find their way to every intended invitee, which was, of course, everyone.

And, surely, nothing could happen that weekend to throw a wrench in these plans...

Rey had made a point to go and check in on Adrian before work, since his phone was in a swamp and she was still in Concerned Girlfriend mode. She felt better having seen that he was doing better, and that Pam had done an amazing job healing the Grove, so she had less reason to worry even if she was going to do so anyway. Things she was also going to do: fix the phone issue since she had the hookup.

Between that and trying to catch up on work, she was suitably distracted enough that she had no idea when the Starbucks cup appeared on her workspace, whether it was a random Fandom thing or if she'd just automatically gone and bought one. Both were worrying for different reasons.

Gregorith spent the morning looking at the event specific exhibits. He found it interesting that Fandom had been a high school for quite a while, before becoming a university, and it brought back memories of the equivalent of Homecoming back home.

He was just beginning his emo goth phase then, if he recalled correctly.

Then he settled behind the desk in the lobby with his sketch pad, trying to expand on some of his pottery ideas. He was kind of warming up to the idea of a bird bath, with maybe a lounging Cthulhu.

(Le Museum, she is open.)

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.

It wouldn't really be a Homecoming dance without a theme, and what kind of theme used up a chunk of the glitter reserves? Outer space! The out-of-this-world decorations had twinkling star lights, cheesy styrofoam planets hanging from the ceiling, and swirling glitter galaxies adorning the walls.

The food table was full, the music was rocking, and the dance floor was ready for guests to arrive!
