Because we all love backdating, right? PARTY!

Characters: Peeta and the heroes and various NPCs.
Open? YES!
Where: At the Heroes' Headquarters!
When: GHB 5, starting in the mid-afternoon and continuing into the evening
What: Peeta just wanted to hold a small soiree, but then the villagers learned where it was going to be.
Warnings: None


The mansion was filled with the smells of fresh bakery and fragrant teas, honey wine, and a variety of savory foods. Peeta'd been baking for days, pulling out as many different kinds of confections from his memory as he could, including a few new things suggested by the locals. There was a table loaded with them in the ballroom--sugar cookies decorated with lemon icing flowers, small chocolate cakes dusted with powdered sugar and filled with melted chocolate sauce, orange and berry muffins garnished with zest, small cups layered with lavender and chocolate mousse and topped with lavender-infused whipped cream, the ever-popular and familiar sweet buns, and of course, the cakes.

One was white, flavored with vanilla and decorated in flowers. The other was chocolate, decorated with swirling leaves. They were in the center of the table, surrounded by piles of little chilled cream puffs and an array of fresh berries.

There was another table nearby filled with Bakura's creations--none of which were familiar to Peeta, but they all looked and smelled delicious. Closer to the kitchen was an array of stews, sauces, meats, roasts, cheeses, breads--including a few of Peeta's loaves and a tray of cheese buns--mostly supplied by the guests. He hadn't been prepared for the numbers that showed up, but the numbers seemed to have brought enough food to take care of the increase.

He would stay near the kitchen for the duration of the party, though, and handle any questions or issues that came up, barring the dirty looks he was getting for his choice of dress--brown and simply-cut, with a white apron around his waist.


PLEASE ALSO NOTE: Peeta's cooking is the conduit for his princess power. Anything he's made is infused with good will, comfort, and peace, and so eating any of his food will make the eater feel warm, fuzzy, content and safe.

There's a similar effect caused by being around Peeta, but it's not as strong as eating his food.

"Did you brew all of the tea?" Selene laughed, not unkindly. "Truth be told, I haven't even spoken with him this evening, so I simply have no idea. I imagine he helped, though. After all, he stepped in after Lavinia took her leave." Now, her face fell a little. It just wasn't quite right to throw a party at the whim of someone who had vanished already, but...

"Do you like creme fillings?" She lifted a pastry and offered it to Tatra.
tatra: (Thoughtful)

The smile faded from Tatra's face and was replaced with a look of worry at the mention of Lavinia. She and Selene must have been good friends, to earn a look like that.

"I do," she confirmed, a smile back on her face as she accepted the pastry gracefully and took a bite.

As close as she was with anyone in the city, at least. She smiled, though, as Tatra took a bite.

"Well? I haven't tried one yet. What do you think? Worth it?"
tatra: (Applause)

Tatra chewed thoughtfully and swallowed before answering.

"Oh, they're delightful!" She practically chirped her approval. "Really, you must try them."

Selene lifted one for herself, sniffing it before taking a bite. Closing her eyes, she gave a low moan, and chewed slowly. She smiled a little and looked at Tatra with a smile.

"This is good."
