"Oh, come on, Jane," Ava teased with a grin. "You're just modest."

"Nah, Ava, he's just really shy guy who scares that his not-so-athletic forms will spook everyone off." Mich piped in cheerfully. "But don't worry he's such a cookie when the wrappers are off."

Joshua was checking the soup to make sure that the liquid hadn't completely evaporated off, and as he walked back to the living room he heard what was being said so once he passed through the door he added to the conversation. "I don't think he's the only modest one here." Then he added "I'm kindof modest, so it looks like Maddy will have her hands full for awhile finding a way to convince me to tag along."

Ava grinned a bit towards Joshua. "Oh come on, Josh," she said. "We are three over here, are you really so sure that you're going to escape?"

Maddy grinned. "Exactly. Plus we have so much lovely eye-candy here tonight," she added teasingly. She made a gesture like a show hostess towards the gang, "Just look at them. Something for all tastes," she said with a laugh.

"Actually thinking about it now it's not that likely" he replied to Ava, and to respond to Maddy's reply he scanned everyone in the room making sure he didn't spend too long gazing at certain individuals. "I guess I could attempt to play a few rounds of poker." He added hesitantly trying to downplay his about average poker skills.

Sam rolled her eyes at the back of the crowd.
'Lovely lovely lovely', she thought poking Mich to shut up before she made it awkward.

But it was already too late when she jumped on the shoulders of two aforementioned guys and ignored Ryan and Patrick's whines and announced: "Come on, modest? They're cutest eye-candies in the lab compared to other staff I don't even know they existed before met them. Plus this one," girl made sure to almost strangle Jane, "is so blinding awesome." she grinned all over the crowd.


Samanta nearly wanted her gun back when her little friend said those words. Sure she wasn't exactly sane or particulary smart in certain areas.

Finally she made her mind and grabbed Michi around her waist
"Come on, monkey, do I need to use your super-glue and place you beside your bike now?" she pulled the girl away from her two boys Sam was supposed to watch tonight. "Now, behave little more adult or I'll teleport you to Lisbon and handcuff to Cho. Cool?" Sam warned the girl, who silently nodded.
It was odd for her to be silent. It meant Mich will find another way to torture her 'candies'.

Madison grinned. "That's the spirit Joshua," she told him with a grin.

She laughed at Mich's antics. "With the exception of Lexie here, yes, they are the cutest eye-candy in the lab," she agreed with a chuckle. "Just cuff her to me, I'll make sure she doesn't go too insane..." Maddy told Sam.

Sam frowned "Sure. And you both can go 'tweeties'."


She glared at rather confused looking Jane "Don't make me transform into Lisbon. You won't like it."

Patrick almost yelped when Mich nearly choked him. He was about to say something but let 'the-mother-hen' to deal the girl.

"Speaking of tweeties, when the poker starts? I'm getting hot here." he said throwing his last bits of sanity into the wind.
Heck, what kind of sanity? The distorted one he promised Michi to lock somewhere?
Whatever happens in 'Vegas' stays in 'Vegas'. Maybe his new life is much better than the old one?

Ava giggled a bit when Patrick said that he was getting hot. "Heard that, Michi?" she grinned. "I think we should get this started."

"O la la!" Mich yelled in mock surprise. "Janey and hot?" she rolled her eyes playfully.

"See? That's what happen to guys when they get compliments." avoiding wack on her head from Ryan she hid behind Maddy and Ava.
"I don't doubt the heat under that three-piece wrapper he's wearing. Look at Ali, she's almost melted into that." Michi teased now safe behind both backs. Her smirk was non-erase-able now.

"I think I have cards around here somewhere." Joshua said and disappeared and quickly rifled through some boxes to grab some, come back and added while holding up the cards he had found. "Here's a blue pack and a red pack of cards."

Maddy chuckled. "Ooh, someone's eager to strip!" she replied, looking at Patrick. "I guess we need to compliment you more often then." She looked at Ryan. "Aww, don't tell me you're all shy now Mr Wolfe. Do we need to toss some more compliments your way to warm you up too?" she teased.


(ooc: omg. Cho at this party woulda been hilarious!)

Ava chuckled and looked at Ryan with a playful pout. "Come on, love," she joked. "I know you can't stay out of this."

"He's just sober," Maddy teased him. "Give him some alcohol and he'll be stripping faster than Jane," she said cheekily.

"Meh, you're just drooling now. But I don't mind compliments." Jane said smirking. "Of course he'll get stripped faster. He's got only t-shirt on."


***

[OOC: yo that'd be a party, lol. Cho'd rock 'em all. epic!]

Maddy smirked. "Nothing wrong with a bit of drooling," she replied, then looking over at Ali and Mich, she added, "It won't take that if you have three pairs of hands helping you. By the time Ry gets out of that one t-shirt, you'd be...well..." she trailed off, smirking at him, mischief in her blue eyes.

Jane held up his hands as if surrendered, "No objections."

He looked over at the girls "Should I get worried? I mean so many hands..." he trailed off taking a step back.

Maddy batted her eyes innocently at him. "Well, since you're wearing a three-piece as per usual, you need three people to be as fast as Ryan," she told him, fakely innocent. "Besides," she said with a grin, "we promise to not be too rough..."

"Ha ha. I'm so thrilled. I need a drink." Ryan groaned trying to hide from the starved looks he received from several eyes. "Patty, beware the wolves. Or rather cougars?" he added walking off to find the very appealing liquid.

Maddy playfully swatted Ryan as he passed. "We can't be cougars! We're younger than you two," she replied with a chuckle.

"Oh that was so nice." Jane said. "Now you made me feel old and sure he's already whining like old woman about his injuries." he deadpaned, expression learnt from Cho.

'Youre still sunshine, Jane', he scolded his thoughts, punching himself mentally.

"Just because we're not cougars doesn't mean we don't have claws," Maddy shot back with a smirk. "Don't be a bunch of sour grapes, and be happy, and stop whining like an old lady if you don't want us to call you old," she told him. "Because you're not old, not at all."

"True. She's absolutely right. You're so young and free that even our 'lost soul' can't take her biggies off of your wrapped up treasures." Michelle piped in with her devious grin.
Sure he was just a little bit older than she. But it's never delayed her from anything eye-candy

"Girls, you're mean," Ava told them. "We're not old, we're just a bit more experienced," she shrugged, as she was almost Ryan's age herself.

Patrick rolled his eyes and shooked his head.
"I'm sure we all know that. But now I want a drink myself so how about that nice cocktail making thing?" Jane piped in almost glowing as his smile already seemed blinded Alexa.

"Yeah sure Jane. They defo know that." Mich mumbled.

"Sure, so drinks maybe?" she grinned deviously at her friends.

"Yes, drinks sound amazing!" Maddy said with a grin. She looked over at Lexie who although had been grinning the whole time listening to their conversation had remained quiet. "Who's our resident cocktail maker along with Mr Blondey over here?" she asked with a nod in Lexie's direction.

Michi started jumping up and down.
"Me, me, me?" her eyes gleamed with mischievous glint. Girl had some plan in her head and she wanted to make sure her 'eye-candies' stays close and enjoy the ride
