Chloe had wondered whether to go through with the harvest party once Lalo had disappeared, but as they say, the show must go on. There's still a lot worth celebrating, and people need something hopeful after the mess last month. Luckily her house had made it through everything all right.

The poster had said to wear a costume, so she's hoping to see a lot of those, and she’d recruited some people to help her put together the menu exactly to Lalo’s specifications, so unfortunately no one is safe from British Potatoes. There are even candles for the birthday cake.

Chloe herself is dressed as a sexy lumberjack, with one of Lalo’s old flannels tied in a knot under her breasts and denim cutoffs made from the jeans Kostya had gotten blood on (shh). She's got a fire roaring, because otherwise she’d freeze.

[Wow.

The lack of fear. The way he gets straight to the point in what her costume was lacking. She holds a hand up to her chest in mock shock up until he says that she gets the pass, and then she relaxes a little.]

Look. I thought skulls might be a little much considering the whole cult thing we had going on.

But I appreciate the slack. The birthday girl deserves as much.

[She eyes the cake, takes the knife. Because she knows food is a little scarce here she actually makes an effort to cut out a modest slice of cake. So there's enough to share around. If she were back in her own world, she might taken the whole thing.

SHE IS SHOWING RESTRAINT.]

Thank you- Chloe mentioned you made the cake. It looks really good.

[ Unfortunately, fear tends not to be obvious on Levi even when he does feel it. Growing up in a place where broadcasting any vulnerability could be lethal sort of beats out that expressiveness out of you. ]

Yes. Congratulations.

[ He may not be aware of just how much difference between the worlds it makes, but he does note that the slice Ruby takes is fairly small. He's both proud of her restraint and a bit sad that she has to show it, but then, it's more cake than Levi had seen for the first twenty years of his life, birthday or not. ]

Mm. Here's hoping it tastes good, too.

[ He's something of a pessimist, but rest assured, it will taste as good as the ingredients allow since he actually knows what he's doing. ]
