If you find yourself in a secluded corner of the Nexus, past the rhinestone statue of a... no one quite knows what that is, but it's blobby in shape. And perhaps not a statue at all. If you find yourself there, you might stumble upon a child's birthday party.

The birthday cake is pretty standard. It says: Happy 2nd Birthday Anya and Athena!

That's where the standardness ceases. Little Anya is dressed as Amelia Earhart, but she keeps taking off her hat, messy blonde hair static clinging up. Athena is dressed up as a toaster, keeping with the history theme, because that's in the history of mechanical doodads and Athena is a robot. It made sense to her papas.

Victor, for her part, is dressed up as Abe Lincoln, complete with a fake beard and a stovepipe hat. That is to say: she's being ridiculous, like usual. Anya is trying to tear the beard off, and Victor is leaning back out of reach of her tiny hands, laughing.

"That's why I chose plastic," he says with a nod. "I thought stuffed animals might be better for the kids, but they're harder to clean if someone gets sick, or if they get dropped in the dirt."

((Sorry for yesterday, ended up being a Do Things With Dad day where I was sneaking tags during the movie so I couldn't get on AIM, will be on later today))

A fond smile, she swings her arms around his neck. "You know me so well!" Victor does like things clean, though her co-parents are pushing to add in some organized dirt (which she has accepted, with fretful difficulty) in order to beef up the girls' immune system. Though, really, Anya is the only one who needs the help, since germs don't really work on Athena.

((There are zero worries! *hughug!*))
