25 Unicorn Street- Wednesday evening- Cubs party!

There was actually going to be a game seven. Kitty had maybe thought this would be a calm "they did good!" party, but instead you were going to get to watch her freak out on the couch, and probably freak out themselves because come on.

Cubs gear was preferred, but there were hats and little pennants to go around, and if you thought she hadn't stuck caps on the dogs you were incorrect and frankly should know her better.

[Open party!]

Parker had a foam finger and a Cubs cap, and a solemn expression. "Hardison promised they would win."

Same way he'd promised her snow at Christmas. Yup. He could do that.

"I'm hoping he's right, and I love that you came prepared," Kitty grinned.

Parker gave her pleased little embarrassed smile, and said, "I like it when the underdogs win. Also, no one should go 100 years without getting into first."

She'd wondered about that goat and the curse since she got to the island.

"Right? I've had generations of my family go without a win," she said. Didn't matter that the older generations hadn't been born here. "It's time already."

Pakrer gave a firm nod, and tugged on the brim of her Cubs cap. "Also, I think I've almost cracked the Cleveland Indians' pitcher hand signals, so, if I have to, we can call the manager and let him know what to look for."

Joe Maddon would appreciate that, certainly.
throughaphase: (ooh?)

"You've been watching that close?" Kitty said, visibly impressed.

Parker did a complicated series of gestures that requested a cutter, then a fastball, and a heater, plus a side commentary that yeah, the ump was blind. "It's important to know what's going on when they think it's a secret," she said soberly.
throughaphase: (huh)

"I feel like I should have didn't less time texting my mom and more time studying," Kitty admitted.

"Naah. Bonding is important. So are moms." IF Parker had any idea where hers was, she'd be.... probably not calling her anyway. "And the codes will still be there next year, too."

"You'll have to teach me before then. I'll be able to prepare myself better for game heart attacks," she reasoned.

Sometime around the rain-delay, Parker's gestures with the foam finger got more emphatic, as if she thought the players could see her.

"NO! WHAT ARE YOU DOING? NO!" That was not what she signaled!!!
