[location: John Everton's House] [OPEN TO ALL!] BLOCK PARTY!!!

[aesthetic_mojo]

The time had come. Charlotte left John in charge of setting up the bar, giving him only the one request that he have a decent selection of beer, and did the work of dialing up the food. She knew she was going way over board. For all she knew no one might show up, even though she'd gotten a bit of a response to her invite. How could people

In due time, a slightly befuddled looking fellow with a tray of brownies arrives. When in doubt, bring dessert and smile, right?

JARVIS

[lapsedsaint]

"Then you should definitely enjoy being a guest. Has Charlie offered you a drink yet?" He glanced at her with a smirk. "If not, she's being a poor host and will have to be given a stern talking to." There is, of course, not a bit of seriousness in his tone, at all.

JARVIS

[emergentfaculty]

"I don't think we'd gotten that far in our introductions, so nothing too severe is warranted." In other words, Jarvis would love a glass of lemonade or something similar.

JARVIS

Charlotte rolled her eyes at the men's teasing. "We hadn't gotten that far at all, plus I can't even remember all we have set out. But there's beer, wine, booze, iced tea and a cherry limeade that is spectacular." She laughed. "And about ten other things. It's really easy to go overboard when all you have to do is touch a panel and remember."

JARVIS

[lapsedsaint]

John nodded and grinned. "Well, then, I guess there will be no punishment." He gave her a quick kiss, then nodded to Jarvis. "Now, if you'll both excuse me. I, too, must mingle some."

He dipped his head to both Jarvis and Charlie, then slipped away to go check on other guests.

[biverbam]

Befuddled and smiling though he may be, there is a suspicious River watching him.

It's probably very rude of her.

JARVIS

[emergentfaculty]

Oh, he sees you watching him and watches right back. Yes, that's right, Jarvis watches the watchers.

"Hello?" :D?

JARVIS

[biverbam]

She would hrm at him, but that's not really her style. Instead, she walks up and prods him gently in the arm.

"Greeting, open curve bracket status colon unsure close curve bracket?"

JARVIS

[emergentfaculty]

There's a moment where he cocks his head to the side as Jarvis and JARVIS communicate before he beams and responds: "Open bracket, quotation mark, hello, comma, world full stop status OK full stop backslash, n, comma, close bracket!"

JARVIS

[biverbam]

River grins and then thinks for a moment. It's ancient, but basic enough. "Open bracket, open angle bracket, enjoyment backslash negative, close angle bracket, close bracket, open bracket, party, close bracket, Get open parentheses, close parentheses, open bracket, applicable, close bracket?"

Then she gives him an expectant look.

There are brownies so Brigitta shall be declaring her eternal love now and stealing your dessert product... Or something, actually she uses tact, instead of running over and rugby tackling him she'll just stroll over, and stare at the brownies, of course.

"I see you brought dessert!" Wow Brigitta, so very observant.

[emergentfaculty]

"I did. I even made them myself." Yes, he's a proud little program. "I hope they're good, but I'm not too sure."

[oldoldghost]

"Well, I could give them a try if you want?" Brigitta's hand is already reaching for the plate, her love of chocolate causes great impatience to occur whenever she happens to be in its presence.

[emergentfaculty]

"Please, help yourself. I made them to be enjoyed." Jarvis sort of smiles and motions toward the plate. "Oh, and I'm Jarvis, it's a pleasure to meet you."

[oldoldghost]

So, yes, Brigitta shall be mid nom by the middle of that sentence, the girl moves fast when chocolate is involved... Though to her credit she does stop to gulp it down before smiling brightly at him "Pleased to meet you too, I'm Brigitta, you been here long?"

[emergentfaculty]

"Not too long. A couple weeks, but I haven't gone out much." Admittedly, he spent that time learning how to walk, talk, make facial expressions, and all sort of other odd biological functions.
