No invasion, but there's pie

The heroes continue to arrive and partake in the Thanksgiving feast, with varying degrees of relief that the "alien invasion" was merely a ruse.

"Kryll," comes the muttered response.

Cassie laughs. "Oh, sweetie, I am sorry."

[starfire-kory.livejournal.com]

"Invasions are not a joke." The scowl is returning.

"No, no they aren't. And you can be sure to tell whoever it was that let the signal out about that." Cassie watches Kory intently. She'd hate to be the one who had to face an angry Starfire.

Kory sighs. "I might. Though--" She pokes at the turkey with her fork. "I am starting to grow sleepy."

[http://users.livejournal.com/_wondergirl_/]

She eyes the turkey on Kory's plate. "It's the turkey, sweetie. That's why I stay far, far away from it. It's almost more powerful than a tranquilizer dart. Tastier, too, though." Maybe just a little piece...

"Perhaps I should have some of the ham...."

[http://users.livejournal.com/_wondergirl_/]

"The ham is...considerably less sleep inducing."

Cassie's not a big fan of the ham. It's great stuff, but...well, she does like the glaze.

She watches Kory intently. "Coffee is good. For the wake-uppy happiness."

She pushes the turkey back and forth on her plate, eyes narrowed.

"Get the ham. Trust me. It's the other white meat."

[starfire-kory.livejournal.com]

Slow blink.

"It's pink."

Cassie wants to facepalm herself, she really does.

Just moments ago, she'd reminded herself about Star's lack of sense of humor.

She supposed that extended to pop culture references too.

"That was...a commerical...that I quoted. From a few years ago. It's...complicated." She bites down on her lip. "Though, well, yes, technically, it is pink. I guess its the blush wine of meats."

Cassie shakes her head. Total crash and burn.

Bette settles down near Kory, smiling a bit to everyone.

"Hello! Tell me, what is a good counteragent for eating turkey?"

[http://users.livejournal.com/_bird_of_flame_/]

"Naps. Or a lot of coffee and lazing in front of a tv for awhile." Bette herself has a cup of coffee in hand.

[starfire-kory.livejournal.com]

"That sounds like defeat rather than resistance."

[http://users.livejournal.com/_bird_of_flame_/]

"In this case, I don't mind losing." Bette's mood seems to be lightening up slowly but surely.

[speedy-mia.livejournal.com]

"Don't think of it as defeat, think of it as a rightful indulgence in a good meal and of rest well earned." Speedy pipes in.

Kory considers, then shrugs and digs into her slices of turkey.

There is a not to Speedy and Flamebird smiles at Kory, leaning back into her seat.
