eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow the mansion could implode via magic
Who: Michonne and other residents of Wonderland
Where: The garden
When: April 9th from 4 pm to ????? (probably around midnight)
Rating: Let's start at PG and adjust if necessary
Summary: Michonne throws a party outside because there's nothing prepared to eat her.
The Story:
[She misses it. The house in Alexandria full of people, enough that it spills out onto porches and front yards. No fear of something shuffling its way behind you to take a bite out of your neck or shoulder. Just conversation, the sound of crickets and cicadas in the summer, and booze that's been scavenged with care. That's what she misses, and the people too, but.
She has people here.
It's an epiphany that's come with time and conversation. Just because these people haven't been through her world with her, they've all been through some shit here, and more of them than not have taken care of each other. Maybe that was what it was about. What you'd do for someone, not where they came from. So, she's taken it upon herself to throw a party. Before the end of everything it was the kind of thing she liked to host, especially pre-Andre being born. After that her time was split between courtrooms and midnight feedings, but she'd still done her share of entertaining clients. Then things ended and it became more about sharing scraps of meet and jars of food when they could, hoping things would get better.
They can. They do. Even without her family, her people, she's made a new home, a different group. People she'd go out of her way to do a lot for, and today they get a potluck. Everyone has to bring something; she's provided the main meats and drinks, but the party is open to everyone who offers an item for others to enjoy whether it's food or booze. Everything is casual outside in the garden, with people coming and going from late afternoon through about midnight when Michonne's finally ready to pack it in.
You take moments like this with the people you care about any time you can get them. That's a far cry from her early ambitions in Atlanta to stay alone.]

[She laughs because she’s apparently just as terrible at names.]
no subject
[ Nice, Michonne. She laughs at the name, bright and amused, crossing her arms and shifting where she stands. ]
So... are we getting jackets?
no subject
[She's highly enjoying getting carried away with the idea of this.]
no subject
[ Okay, but this something they could feasibly get from the closets?? ]
no subject
[It's decided.]
Which means were gonna have to actually cook something and get Jo and Simon to eat it.
no subject
[ Right, Jo and Simon. She chuckles. ]
I don't think that'll be too hard. We can handle it.
no subject
[She means it, even if the world falls apart tomorrow - spoiler alert! - they're gonna do this.]
no subject
[ And she honestly is. Jo, Simon, and Michonne are some of the people closest to Ellie in Wonderland, and talk of them all in some kind of weird club... is nice. It makes her feel like she's a part of something. ]
See you later. [ She says, heading out the door with a little wave. ] And party on!
