[semi-open] such a cozy room, the windows are illuminated
what: Eddie and Cisco host a Harvest Festival (Thanksgiving) dinner
when: November 17th
where: Eddie and Cisco's apartment
warnings: none likely, check subject lines
It's been a long day of cleaning the apartment, prepping food and decor, and cooking. So much cooking. The apartment smells like turkey and potatoes and bacon and pie and dozens of other amazing smells. The table is set with enough plates and napkins and silverware for everyone invited and a couple of friends each, and there's a festive pumpkin-and-fall-leaf themed centerpiece that Eddie's particularly fond of. In the background, soft music is playing and the whole atmosphere is warm and cozy.
Eddie himself is dressed in a waistcoat and button-up shirt with a tie, his face a little flushed from spending time over the hot stove and the oven, but he's energetic, upbeat and ready to help Cisco greet guests at the door as they arrive.
Once dinner is set out, it consists of a beautifully roasted turkey, brussels sprouts cooked with bacon, mashed potatoes and gravy, stuffing, cranberry jelly, candied yams, warm bread rolls, and whatever other turkey dinner trimming might come to mind. There's coffee and hot chocolate, juice, and wine available for whoever wants to drink it. Best of all, there's pumpkin and apple pie ready for dessert.
Giving thanks out loud is optional, but making new friends definitely isn't.

Finn's proverbial jury is staying out on finding a holiday they might all be able to get into without it getting weird. He's not against hoping. Hoping doesn't hurt. ]
So that makes the plan "feel out of place together in the meantime."
[ Could be the use of "we" is meant purely as a show of solidarity. Finn wouldn't know just-capable from genuinely-comfortable out of Poe in this context. It's nice either way, though, he'll take it. It's what the kids these days call real unit cohesion. ]
I'd criticize it if I thought there was a better one out there, Poe.
[ clearly as his friend it is very important to know that. ]

[ Yes Finn he finds your fussing charming. ] Pretty sure "feel out of place together" is the only way any of us make our way through the galaxy.

Well, as long as we're not an exception.
[ If you get enough people willing to feel out of place together, they turn into people who are all in place together, right? When they actually get a choice in being out of place together, anyway, not when they get abducted by some random portal that's supposedly unable to be controlled. But Finn has a lid on that salt for the time being. Since they're at a party and all.
He turns his head to track Rey down really quick. She's exactly as fine as she was last time, and if she wasn't she'd undoubtedly be destroying somebody for trying to change that status. So that checks out. ]
I can see why she likes them.
