WHO: The residents of Maurtia Falls #004 and many friends
WHERE: MF4
WHEN: Late September
WHAT: Family Dinner: The Return. After a long hiatus, it has returned. If you are a friend of any of the residents, assume you're invited to eat!
WARNINGS: None now, will add if needed.
[ The last time there was a dinner in this house, there were different stresses, slightly different residents, and no one had died yet. Perhaps you can't blame anyone for not planning another group meal soon after that.
Since then, though, things have been...mostly quiet. Comparatively. Yes, the world is still a shitshow (in Cassandra's own opinion), but the residents of the house are back into a fairly domestic routine, and any threats to reality are ambiguous enough that one can occasionally pretend they're on the periphery rather than clearly encroaching. So friends are finally being invited to Maurtia Falls #004 again, in the hopes that performing normalcy will allow it to be retained.
Or...something like that. There's also something nice about ordering a bunch of takeout and letting other people bring over food.
For any new guests, the building is the epitome of cleanliness- Rex lives here, after all- and nondescript to the point of it being a little surreal. Plenty of alcohol in the fridge, though, and a mysterious cupboard marked "Martin's Things." Maybe don't open it. Besides that, the only other thing to call out is a goldfish in a tank in the living room.
In any case, even if the building is a little boring, the people don't seem to be that way. Then again, maybe boring's what you're here for? Better than chaotic around here. ]

We enrolled him in it last year. We figured it would be good for him - and it has been. [ He tilts his chin up, just a tad. ] He's better than the rest of them, I'll tell you that much.

It's easy, though, to imagine Rex coaching Martin. Training, but with a kinder purpose than, well, any of them are used to. The mental image earns a small smile.] He must be.
no subject
[ It's not a fair match-up, but... ]
He's more diligent than that lot too, though. Works harder. Even without his advantages, he'd be performing better than them. [ His brows rise, just a smidgen. He looks... a little satisfied, in fact. ]
The other parents are fully aware.
