The Birthday party

“Well that depends,” Eliza flirted right back. “I could give you a standard casual back rub right now. To pay for the beer, like you said.”

Eliza slid closer to Evie so she would not be overheard. “Or, I could pay with this coupon,” she added producing a blank note card into her hand from her digital storage. “Good for one full-body massage at a later time. Clothing optional, but highly discouraged.”

She genty slipped the card into Evie’s pocket before ‘blinking’ away, reappearing by the cooler to take a beer for herself.

Well someone was a lot more forward then she was expecting. Evie even ignored her usual intense bias towards anyone who teleports, thankful that the blink meant the blue haired girl wouldn't see her face redden in response to her offer.

She took a moment to recover her composure, locating the girl again before deciding to make another move. She wasn't about to let herself get shown up by some girl she just met after all. She hopped off the ground, floating a couple feet in the air, taking a moment to make sure no one was in her path. Her powers shifted her gravity, then she was slowly falling across the room, as she was sliding across the foreground in a cartoon.

She landed on the wall next to the food and drinks, laying on her side against it as if it were the ground, legs pointed to the ceiling, head resting in her hand and propped up with her elbow.

The effect looked ridiculous.

"You make a compelling offer!" She said with a goofy grin. "You mind giving me your name so I know who to give this to later?"

Eliza expected Evie to follow her, but the method the girl used was truly inspired. It didn’t look ridiculous to her. It looked cute.

She winked up at her, both to flirt and it access her phone with her techopathy. “I’m Eliza. My number is already in your phone.” she took a sip of the beer. “Can I just say, this whole wall thing you’re doing? Very cool.”

(Ugh, worst post ever, sorry!)

He'd stick with Elisa, sipping his drink and helping her sort gifts when she needed help. Pulling out his phone he'd send a quick text, looking up as Pallavi approached them. "Hey there, we're happy you made it," he'd give her a smile, "good to see you out and about."

"Sure you're ok?" he'd ask their friend, "you want something to drink or eat?" he knew things hadn't be easy for her, so he wanted to make Pallavi was comfortable.

People were really piling in, he was happy that Elisa had made so many friends. He was happy that she'd grown do much socially, it was really nice. He'd give Elisa a quick kiss on the cheek, "party's great love," he'd grab her a drink, guessing she'd be thirsty after greeting so many people.

Evie blinked, before fishing her phone out of her pocket and checking to find that yes, it was in fact already there. Huh, neat.

"Thanks! I always aim to impress~." She giggled, pocketing it again. Never one to pass an opportunity to show off, she stood up from the wall, before jumping off, performing an acrobatic front flip in the air, and landing gracefully on both feet in front of Eliza.

"I'm Evie!" She introduced herself with a smile. leaning forward and tilting her head a bit. "It's a real pleasure to meet you."

She grabbed a small bite to eat from the nearby table, tossing it into the air and catching it in her mouth.

"So, Eliza." She continued after swallowing. "Don't suppose you're willing to share how you got onto my phone, are you?"

[No worries yo.]

Being one of the other people occupying the Designated Weirdo Space, Euphemia had watched the whole interaction between Regina and Pallavi. While she often failed to grasp the nuances of how people were feeling, it was pretty clear that both of them were somewhat upset, though for different reasons.

After she got her drink, Euphemia silently walked up beside her, standing with her usual stiff posture, expression neutral.

"Excuse me," She asked with her monotone voice, curious. "Are you unwell?"
