fandomtownies | Caritas; Wednesday [04/13].

Was it tacky to advertise for your big party on the weekend during your bar shift on Wednesday? Did Summer really care?

Because you could definitely bet Summer was going to try and tell everyone about that party, and, even if she didn't get around to it, she had a few ubiquitous flyers up around the place and smaller little print-outs advertising for the Big Beefcake Birthday Blowout Bash (sorry, Eliot; like a magpie, this one, but she did, clearly, improve on it), juuuust in case anyone missed it.

Look, she had to cover all of her bases. She was pretty sure she might actually die if she threw a party and, like, no one showed up. Forget parasitic brain eaters, evil galactic empires, the breaking of time and space as we know it....a bad party was, like, the most terrifying thing in the entire multiverse.

"Aww, poor little dude," Annie sighed, and if she thought about it just a skosh harder, she probably would have been able to conjure up some sympathy for someone she knew personally with a similar backstory, actually. "Mine were bigger -- or, well, older. Diego and I had a different version of the twins who showed up last year. But they're teenagers, so less with the hugs and more with the, like, trying to convince us their actual parents should buy them a car."

Summer gave a softly envious smile at that, the only concession she was going to give to the disappointment that had come with getting Mystery Giant Space Baby over another visit from Holly.

Fine, it was tooootally fine.

"So?" she asked, focusing instead on the important stuff. "Did they convince you?"

"Me, but not Diego," Annie replied, shaking her head. "Yet another case where my lack of understanding of sibling politics got in my way. And besides that they were just, like, hyper-fixated on not messing up the timeline by telling us about anything except Diego's future hair."

This hair was, like, the stuff of legends at this point.

There was a small moment, a small twinge of....something, where Summer wondered if shrinking her son before sending him back had messed up any timelines, but....naaaaah. It was probably fiiiiine.

(It would not be fine).

Also, Annie being the one to cave was the least surprising thing ever, sibling politics experience or not, so again, the real important things took precedence.

"Tell me more," she said, "about this haaaair."

"Apparently," Annie told her, eyes wide with how curious she was about this, "in the twins' future, Diego grows his hair out long. And has a beard."

Annie had a million theories as to how this came about. Hair-growing bet. Maybe a stint as an actual hermit. Maybe, actually, because of sexy reasons she'd already suggested to him!

(The real answer was, honestly, basically unguessable.)

"The kids last year said it, too," she added. "Along with how I look younger now than in their time but, like, that seems normal."

Summer's eyes narrowed for a moment at Annie's description, and then she nodded with approval when the vision managed to manifest in her head.

"Nice," she said. "He should totally get on that. And that's good, it would be weird if you looked the same, really."
