Happy New Year!
The New Year's Eve Party at the Comic Store has rolled around again. This year, it's...louder than usual. In addition to the usual suspects, Stuart has invited Raquel, and since Penny and Sheldon are a done deal, too, this means the rest of the StormFist posse, who can scent a party the way sharks scent blood, take the opportunity to dress up...well, pretty much the way they do most weekends, to be honest.
Stuart, dressed as the Fourth Doctor again, seems to have acquired a Leela this year. Raquel gives Penny a wink, and stalks towards her prey. She's actually slightly less dressed up than usual, since she's not wearing green paint and horns today.
Sheldon has been persuaded to retire the Flash costume, because Sven has a really cool costume idea for them all to wear, claims it is culturally significant for him, an excuse which makes both Beth and Penny narrow their eyes, but you can't really argue with a six foot plus blond guy with a name like Sven Gustavsen.
So, basically, a bunch of Asgardian warriors crash the party. Beth makes a kickass Sif to Sven's Thor. Calum, Dan and Si are a shoe-in as the Warriors Three, and Tay is Heimdall (“About time we had a black dude represent, yo.”) As for her - Penny swirls her cape, and gets her strut on. Sigyn translates as 'Victorious Girlfriend', and she can live with that. The acid green Manolos set the whole outfit off perfectly, anyway, and she hasn't had to dye her hair. Also, she thinks that yeah, Sheldon might well empathize with a hyper-intelligent younger son who got passed over for his popular jock older brother, but damn, he looks seriously good in that helmet.
