[This is Light knocking at the door. He's been reading up on Thanksgiving, which is why he's made a hot, sweet, lemon and chili dip as a gift, but the flowers he brings are for Jubilee alone.

He just hasn't got around to giving them to her yet, so there he is finding a place to lay his dip, hovering around one of the tables awkwardly.]

Mr. Light. [Tifa smiles as she approaches a face she hasn't seen in some time, two plastic cups of beer in her hands. One is promptly offered to him with a smile.] It's been a while.

[Light looks startled, but this is the kind of thing that happens when you drastically lose your memory. He smiles at her, taking the cup politely with a nod.]

Miss...?

Lockheart. [She smiled back.] Tifa Lockheart. We talked a little when you were working for the Siren's Port Police Department.

[Man, Thanksgiving. It's really nice of Jubilee to do this, because if he didn't have anything to do today he'd probably be moping in his room missing his family. It's a pretty big Kaplan holiday. But hey, Thanksgiving's all about counting your blessings, right? And he's got a lot of them: Teddy, Magneto, a place to stay, really cool people to be around, and now this party. So that's him helping to set out hors d'oeuvres on one of the tables, if 'helping to set out' means a lot of snacking.]

[Tifa's half in the kitchen with Jubes and half in the living room to be social, it's a delicate balancing act but something she's managing all the same.] Those -must- be good.

[Pauses briefly in the act of chewing a shrimp, then swallows.] Oh, uh, yeah. They totally are. Have you tried any? [He offers her the tray.]

Not just yet. [She snags a shrimp-cracker and bites down, making a happy sound.] Mmm, that -is- good. You know, one of those little things about being in another world I overlook sometime is all the new foods.

[She smiles at him and offers a hand.] I'm Tifa.

[Tifa always tried to show up early to these kinds of things, she liked to help out as much as she could. So here she is with a steaming bowl of stuffing and a second bowl of potato salad. She'll find a place to settle them and try to help out in the kitchen as much as she can, while occasionally drifting out to the living room to be social.]

[Erik has pretty much taken over the kitchen, wishing to avoid the grills. Seeing a young woman bring in food, he smiles.]

Hello, welcome, and thank you. [He smiles warmly.] Cold there, hot there, [he points them out] and if you stay too long, I'll put you to work.

[Tifa puts her dishes where indicated and grins up at him, flexing one arm.] That's why I'm early, I wanted to lend a hand.

[She puts one out to him now.] I'm Tifa.

Help is always welcome. As is a sous chef. [He takes her hand in his, it's calloused and strong] Michael Xavier.

[Yoruichi comes empty-handed, figuring no one will want to eat her cooking. She sure as hell doesn't. Any time she can get someone more skilled in the culinary arts to make something for her, she's all for it.

She'd been a little surprised at Kenpachi's gruff invitation, but again: food cooked by somebody who knows how. That, and being sociable is good. She doesn't announce her arrival, but she doesn't make a secret of it, either. For a moment, she stands there, drawing in a deep, contented breath. Oh, yes. This is will be better than anything she can hope to make herself.]

[Jubilee is setting up more chairs. Luckily, they had more. She glances over and blinks. She didn't recognize the woman - and she was pretty sure she would. So, must be either a crasher, or someone else invited her.

As long as she isn't the Joker in disguise, Jubilee's welcoming everyone.]

Heya! I'm Jubilee. Welcome.

[Right, right. One of Kenpachi's housemates. Well, Yoruichi wasn't completely devoid of manners; growing up in a noble household impressed a few things upon her, even if she bucked most tradition in the end. She smiles.]

Yoruichi. I swear I'm not barging in; Kenpachi invited me to come along. We used to work together back in our world.

[A shrug and a smile. Then she hands Yoruichi a couple of chairs.]

Then welcome to the house that Jubilee built. Wanna give me a hand? Don't worry, if Kenny invited you, s'cool.

[Erik doesn't truly remember a holiday where this big a deal was made. Anya's first birthday came close. But this...this was different. He didn't, in truth, feel up to a holiday but Jubilee and William had looked so excited...perhaps that explained why after four hours, he was still cooking.]

[Light has spent a little while on the teppan preparing monjoyaki, but clearly Magneto has done most of the work. This is his way of offering his frienship, since his friendship with Jubilee has extended to home visits and this is his first real opportunity to speak to her friends without ending up bustled off to her room.]

Would you like a break?

[Erik looked up - the young man who rescued Jubilee - and smiled, grateful.] I enjoy this, but thank you. Company is always welcome however, especially given your rescue of Jubilee. Is the teppan what you needed? I'm only familiar with commercial versions, I'm afraid....

Well maybe I can at least get you something to drink?

[The heat from the barbeque was considerable, but in the bitter winter chill it was quite pleasant. Light, naturally, was used to central heating and staying warm and comfortable.]

It works just like the real thing. I was very impressed. Did you have some part in making it?
