[Filtered from Billy.]
So, happy new year and all that aside, the holidays weren't exactly all that pleasant for everyone involved. But I say better late than never, right?
[Kate raises her eyebrows and grins earnestly. Her eyes then dart downward for a second to double check the filtering levels set. What good is a belated holiday gift if the recipient knows about it?]
Now that things have returned to normal - or whatever most closely passes for normal around here - I think we should continue the trend of ringing in the New Year's with some epic parties. Like a Hannukah party. Because who doesn't like gambling and a little bit of fire?
Seriously though, guys. We got a semi-decent Christmas day... eve, anyway. But the Jabberwocky ate Billy on the first night of Hannukah and he never got his celebration. I can't think of a better gift to get him for the holidays.
Is there anyone Jewish here - that isn't Billy and won't mention this to him on pain of some kind of horrible payback - that can help with that planning? Mrs. Kaplan usually invited us all over the past few years, but it's been a while. And getting Billy involved defeats the purpose of all of this.
I know there's latkes, menorahs, and dreidels but what else? I want this to be a celebration he won't forget.
[She frowns. It's a new year even though it hasn't really been a full year of her life. Still, it's safe enough to say that it's been a long one filled with enough trouble and heartache for all of the Young Avengers, Billy especially. Arriving here hasn't made anything easier.
Some more celebration, some more good memories over the bad sounds almost seems like a necessity.]
So, I'm thinking sometime soon. Everyone's invited so long as you promise to leave any consideration of weapons or insanity in your room.
Anyone have a preference?

[Maxine's smiling to herself, warm and faint, even thinking of Paula.]
You have to remember the, oh, what're they called- [She snaps her fingers a few times, trying to spark her memory.] Sufganiyot? Jelly doughnuts, basically. Paczki.

Your girlfriend wouldn't have happened to teach you how to make those, would she? I'd ask the closet, but I'm not sure what I'd get in return.

[Ahehheh. Oops.]
It can't be that hard though, right?

Have you ever gotten to celebrate the holidays before, James?
[video]
[ He wasn't totally kept out of the loop. ]
It was just the straight American holidays we didn't celebrate.
[video]
[video]
Easter, Fourth of July, Memorial Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving. We never celebrated them.
[ Since Thanksgiving he's been doing a bit of reading. ]

[Her lips quirk to the side for a second.]
...Tony is aware that holidays extend past the Hallmark store, right?
[video]
[ That's one reference that he doesn't get. ]
Tony celebrated the big ones: Our birthdays and Christmas. Holidays just didn't really matter.

...All I know is something about potato pancakes, though. I mean, about Hanukkah.

Too bad the closets won't actually appease your every wish and whim. I'd ask for them in a heartbeat.

Uh--new here, my bad.

If I’m lucky, they’ll give me the ingredients. [A pause, followed by a wry grin.] Last time I asked for a second bow, I got one of the Nerf variety.

[ Calista i'm pretty sure this is not helping or what she cares about... ]

[Solidarity. They’re a team. And even if they weren’t, he’s her friend. Friends are there for each other.]

Think you can help with cooking and decorating, too?
