Only the classiest 50's foods were available to you here. Casseroles, jello molds, that horrible ambrosia, cocktail hotdogs...

Oh, and fruit punch. Mmmm.

Casseroles just seemed weird to serve at a party. Not that Jake cared much.

Yeeeeah, Bruce decided he was just going to stick to the fruit punch for now. It would also give him a baseline for what it would taste like if and when it was spiked.

Scully was shaking her head at the foods on offer, and the decorations. "I remember this retro trend the first time through. I don't think I like that I'm getting to see it yet again."

"It's not really retro if we're in a fifties timeline," Bruce said. "It's more... meshing with the outside world."

"I could happily skip it. Not exactly a decade where I'd thrive." She eyed Bruce's clothes, and her lips quirked in a smile. "How do you manage to look like you belong wherever you are?"

"Simple haircut, nice wardrobe. Those two things never go out of style," Bruce said. "You don't look too out of place yourself."

"Basic black," she said, then held out her nails, face sobering a little. They were painted red now, but the black showed through just a little. "In many things."

"That sounds ominous," Bruce said. Yeah, he picked up on cues like that. "Is something wrong?"

Well, he was the world's greatest detective. Not that Scully knew that.

"My fingernails turned black after that -- thing, with the infection." She turned them so he could see the undersides. "They're much harder, more like claws. It's been over a week and there's been no change."

"Well, you did want things to be different this time around," Bruce deadpanned as he took a look. "No other lasting effects?"

"This wasn't exactly what I had in mind," Scully said, smiling a little anyway. She turned them over, examining them, biting her lip. The polish needed to be re-touched, but there'd never be pale colors in her collection again. "And no. Thank God. The mental side was much worse than the physical, and I suppose it could be something more obvious."

"They're really not that noticeable. And now you'll never be without a decent weapon," Bruce said, looking on the bright side. "I wouldn't concern myself with it too much."

Of course, if had happened to Bruce, he'd still be off doing tests on the claws in a cave. So make of that what you will.

Scully gave him an amused, cockeyed glance, then turned more considering. "They were useful for getting out of the restraints in the Clinic." Not being tied up again? That would be a bonus. "So you might have a point there." What *could* she cut through with these things?

"Just watch it if you have a fight or flight impulse to gouge someone's eyes. You'd do serious damage with them," Bruce said.

Lovely food table topic there.

So lovely! She probably ought to do a few tests to see how much of a risk that was; she'd already had a hell of time filing them down to where they wouldn't curve over her fingers. "Thank you, Fandom." She sighed. "Anyway... how was your invasion week? I didn't see you while I was compos mentis, and if I saw you while I was crazy, please don't tell me."
