 Val had worked hard turning her precious garden into a space suitable for a party. She knew how stressed out and awful Lou must feel right now and she was determined that she would shake her right back into the cheerful voice of reason she normally was. Messages had been sent out to anyone who had any connection to Lou the night she came home from the hospital and Val prayed people would have time to show up.

Every branch and bush in the garden had been strung with fairy lights, the strings hidden so they looked more like floating globes of light. Chairs and tables had been tucked into empty spaces and various snacks and alcohol had been set up on a long table off to the side. She'd taken into consideration the rather... aphrodisiac effect these get-togethers seemed to have and small nooks out of the way of the rest of the party had been set up and thoroughly charmed with privacy charms. More charms sent out an thread of magic to draw anyone who appeared to be looking for privacy towards them.

Sitting herself down in the middle of everything, she spent an hour putting the strongest protection spells she could in a bubble around the party. They wouldn't do anything to keep those who wandered away from the party safe, but hopefully they would keep those in the bubble safe for the duration of the party.

A quick charm on her flowers so they wouldn't be trampled or picked, a call to Lou to ask her to come over, and a shower and an outfit change later, she was ready. Taking a deep breath, she turned on the soft, not too energetic music she'd put together, and flopped down into a chair to wait.

Alfie wasn’t quite sure why he was at the party. He of course wanted to show his support for Lou, but he’d been working at the lodge for 10+ hours and the amount of physical tasks he’d done that day had left him exhausted. Having given a lift to a few of the people in his block, and done a quick round of ‘hellos’ and ‘how are yous’, he’d spotted a little nook that looks pretty comfy. He was just going to sit down for a few minutes, really. Rolling his sleeves up, practically a luxury now his Mom wasn’t here to have to hide his tattoo from, he felt his eyes drooping. Two minutes later and the music had helped him drift off to sleep.

Riley tried to help her sister with decorating, but ultimately she ended up knocking everything down until Val told her to go put on a pretty outfit for Lou, probably just to get her sister out of her hair while she perfected everything. "Soooo-Yuuunnnnn" she calls, peaking out the front door and looking around for Val. "Can't I just wear shorts? Lou loves shorts!"

After drinking Riley's potion and transforming back to himself, Tristan received the text from Val and instantly set out on making as many pies as he could, a variety of flavors, from vanilla mint to coconut mango surprise, and with as much cheering, soothing, and warmth charms as he could put into them. He tries to remember Lou's favorites, and he makes sure to bring two jugs, one with coffee, and another with hot chocolate. He hopes its enough to meet the needs of the party. He also brings a small, prettily wrapped parcel and a get well card he magicked together using a design technique he learned from his mother.

He knocks on the Jung's door.

"Special pie delivery?"

"Fine! But only for Lou." She sticks her tongue out at Val before disappearing back into the house where she quickly changed, tripping over her shoes a few times along the way back out. "That's right," she says as she walks out to her sister. "I'm wearing my cat dress."

"Well, I didn't want to disappoint, so I kind of brought a bit of everything?" He says with a grin. Loveliness clearly runs in the family.

"Alright, in the back? Any place in particular you want things? I don't want to mess up any plans," he says as he follows her out back. "I'm Tristan. Riley's told me a little about you, all good things of course."

"Damnit!" She steps out of the house, closing the door behind her, and takes a look around. "Wow, you did a really beautiful job out here, Val!"

"Hey, fairy lights are difficult, okay," she laughs. "I'll tackle anyone who gets near them, cross my heart. I'll be your babies' bodyguard tonight."

Riley looks around before lowering her voice, grining. "Did you invite Grant?"

Riley slaps at Val's hands as she looks around the garden to see who's shown up. "Stop fussing over that."

"What?" she asks innocently. "I just want to thank him for helping you with the whole demon monster thing!"

"You're making my ears hurt!"

"But I'll be thanking him on behalf of the family. I'm your unnie," she argues.

Tristan is definitely afraid of the knowing smirk gracing the other woman's face. But he keeps on smiling, even with a blush. "Ah, good. Wow, it looks amazing out here. Did you do all this yourself?" He stops to take in the fairy lights and the way the plants glow with their own sort of light. It's incredible, really, and Tristan finds himself in awe.

"Yes, I bake," he grins. "Pies, mostly, but also cakes and pastries."

Riley thinks she sees someone familiar step off into one of her sister's private nooks. She follows the man, waving a few of Val's charms off when she finds him. "Alfie?--oops," she quickly lowers her voice, thinking he's adorable right now and she just has to send a pic to Les. She pulls out her phone, moving close to Alfie, and kneels in front of him to take a selfie with the sleeping man. Giggling, she quickly sends the picture to Les.

"Let go of my ear, you weirdo!"

"For what??" Her cheeks flush.

"UGH fine!" She crosses her arms over her chest, thrusting her hip toward Val. "Fix my dress."

"I wasn't in danger, I was helping people, okay."

Riley sticks her tongue out. "Whatever."

"I was in less danger than the girl who actively followed the thing and the guy who climbed to his rooftop, thank you very much."
