[A few days after the Branch incident....]

[Puss could have done this via the watch, but he's a classy kitty.

This team is going to need unity. Teamwork. Togetherness. And Puss knows just the thing that will help.

Every single person at the North pole will find an invite slipped under their door, or otherwise placed near their living quarters...]

[The front feels like velvet and the "P" is covered in gold glitter. It's really fancy, the yetis outdid themselves. Now, time for the preparations. It won't be the same if he's not destroying an oppressive villain's mansion while he does it, but that's not the point this time, and he can still throw quite the bash.]

((OOC: Go ahead and use this post as a party-related inbox! Video, text, or track Puss down in person!))

Must I?

[Nyara has spent the last however long in hiding. She'd ventured out once and experienced chili powder and just accepted the bizarre new pain as a new part of life, and then Need had gotten mad in that way she does and gave a lecture about her deserving better...

anyway it seems like it's safe to move around again, so Nyara's skulking about, looking honestly still kinda worse for wear. She holds up the invitation.]

[Puss chuckles softly.]

No, no, no, of course not. I've thrown parties meant to get under people's skin before, but this is not that. This is simply for fun, and if it would not be fun, you should not come.

[changechild]

Oh. That is... good to know.

[The only 'parties' she's been part of have involved her being the entertainment and Nyara doesn't want to dance with a lot of eyes on her. If she was drumming instead - but that's never been expected of her and she's not really good, anyway.]

You are very confident.

[She might find it threatening if he wasn't small.]

[Puss can't help but preen a little bit. He just loves compliments.]

Indeed I am. And why not? I have had many adventures, fought many foes, foiled many nefarious plots, and in all that time, there has only been one who ever bested me at swordplay.

[And what a one that was. His smile has taken on a sort of wistful rue, the kind of someone reflecting on the person they used to be.]

Be grateful you didn't know me before that. I was a callous arrogant bastard.

[changechild]

Only one?

[She raises her eyebrows, and doesn't have anything to say about being callous. Nyara can't relate; she can try to not care about some things, and that's sometimes a survival strategy, but that's about it.]

[Puss nods solemnly.]

Only one. None other than Death himself once chased my heels.
