WHO: All are welcome!
WHAT: ~~ThanksFriends~~Worksgiving IC/OOC
WHEN: Thursday, November 23
WHERE: The Hall
WARNINGS:

MC hosts ~~Friends~~Worksgiving at The Hall this year. There are several turkey and pumpkin-themed decorations.

Doors open around noon, but show up whenever you want as long as you're here by meal time.

The football game will be on, and your host is MUCH more into sportsball this one day of the year. To a surprising and obnoxious degree. She will trash talk you if you say a bad word against the Lions (or a good word about the Packers).

Meal is around 4:30. Drinks are around always. (MC especially pushes the sangria.)

Whit is in charge of food (be glad it's not MC!) and has prepared a beautiful, Martha Stewart-esque meal with all the traditional fixings. People are welcome to supplement with less-than-usual side dishes or desserts!

During and after the meal, MC has a cultivated video playlist going of some Thanksgiving classics such as Charlie Brown. Feel free to reference more!

VOLUNTEERS

VOLUNTEER 1 doesn't realize the "fruit punch" is boozy and hits it a little too hard early in the day.

VOLUNTEER 2 gets turkey tired and nods off on VOLUNTEER 3's shoulder.

What's this? VOLUNTEER 4 has hated [Thanksgiving Food of Choice] their entire lives and avoided it every holiday. But tonight they try some and it's … good? Great, even??

Uh oh. VOLUNTEERS 5 and 6 nearly come to blows about the football game.

Double uh oh. AUGGIE brings a squash and has to endure Whit's passive aggressive Midwest niceness over their competing side dishes all night.

MC is rocking a blue sweater and silver jewelry today. She's buzzing around, keeping spirits light and vibes good.

Whit is here in an immaculate white sweater, being very fake-Martha Stewart-y and trying to make sure all the food is perfect. He might smack someone's hand if they try to mess with anything. He worked hard!!

He periodically excuses himself to go text or FaceTime with some unseen person but tries to be private about it, with limited success.

Were you not at The Hall for Thanksgiving, but still want to post a Thanksgiving scene or thread? Here you go.

I am sorry for how basic this is. I am back up to treading water instead of drowning at work, but then a whole ass holiday hit this week too and here we are.

hello can auggie have volunteer 7 pleeeease

Yes!

Thank yooooooou this is cute 🥺

ty for your brainstorming help ♥

Always a pleasure!

Also bonus: Whit's reaction to someone bringing a competing side dish

aaaa thank you for this!! i'll make my way back to this ic/ooc tomorrow since i'm a lil braindead tonite but sal is here FOR SURE. i feel like he must have feelings about football but i'll be real with y'all i am canadian and i do not know anything about football

I solemnly swear I will not judge football knowledge and/or interest it is a very silly sport but it is also a Thanksgiving tradition so here we go. Sports!

i also don't get football but because news [canadian wwdtm] on cbc [canadian npr] taught me that the grey cup [canadian superbowl cup] got to hamilton [canadian city where the grey cup was held] from toronto [canadian city where the grey cup had been residing] via 4.5-hour ship ride [method of water transportation] on lake ontario [big lake] and it cracks me up even tho i can't explain why

this comment and the translations made me cackle aloud

THIS IS EXTREMELY CUTE I will summon the brain for this

Zeke is here because it's free food and Auggie is here because this is his family (chinhands emoji) (also he's Canadian and doesn't have anything else to do)

let's all hope one of them does a weird thing
