[OPEN] apple pie is officially banned from this party, aka Steve Rogers' birthday
who: ANYONE
what: 616 Bucky, Peggy, and 616 Tony throw a birthday party for Steve.
when: July 4th, afternoon into the evening
where: A nice park
warnings: Birthday fun. :v
Steve Rogers, former (and still) Captain America, was born on the Fourth. It was pretty much fated. That said, he deserves a party that has nothing to do with Independence Day, and that's what Bucky, Tony, and Peggy set out to do. They rented a nice little park with some good open, grassy space perfect for a pick-up game of football (American, of course). On one end of the park, in the relative shade of a couple of large trees, they've set up two long tables - one for food, and one to deposit presents for the birthday boy on. The picnic tables already in the park have nice blue tablecloths to eat on. A banner hung between the trees proclaims, "Happy Birthday, Steve!", in blue letters on white.
The decor tries to stay away from Fourth of July colors - there isn't a speck of red, just shades of blue and white, and it's all very put-together and classy looking (thank you, Peggy and Tony). It's the sort of party they thought Steve would want, outdoorsy and casual, just a gathering of friends and whoever else wants to come by to wish the birthday boy a happy one.
Invites
Invitations have mostly been word of mouth and texts sent to people Steve is friends with, nothing too fancy. They just say to drop by and wish Steve a happy birthday, have some food, and spend some time hanging out; Rogers wouldn't want anything fancy anyway. That said, they won't turn anybody away from the barbecue if someone decides to just crash the party, as long the behavior stays respectful.
Food
The food is mostly standard American barbecue fare. Two large grills have been set up near the tables and someone (often Bucky) is usually cooking on them - an array of burgers, hot dogs, steaks, even some ribs and chicken. Side dishes are laid out on the food table, the usual simple things. Here and around the picnic tables are a good place to mingle; there's plenty of food for everyone, and metal tubs full of ice and bottled soft drinks. There isn't much alcohol present at this party, though, just one of the tubs set aside with beers in it.
There's also a massive cake for Steve, with close to a hundred candles dotting its layers - Bucky's idea, payback for the time he couldn't see his own cake for all the candles.
Tossin' the Old Pigskin
They're all (mostly) adults here, so there aren't 'party games' necessarily, but there are a couple of footballs and some frisbees in the grass for anyone who wants to play a game in the lush field. Just be careful if the heavy hitters decide to arrange a game, it could get pretty out of hand.

But he sighs a little and finds something interesting to look at across the way.]
There have been some differences in opinion lately. The other you was kind of in the middle of some of them. [There, that's about as neutral on the whole subject as he can get.]
no subject
'Differences in opinion'. [A quiet snort. He's heard a little bit from Steve at this very party. On the subject of the other Bucky, though...] I've... met him. [He starts, carefully, with a slight pause. As if he's trying to choose his words.] It's complicated.
I'm gonna guess you ain't fond of him.

Whatever it's worth, I'm not him an' he's not me. Not exactly. [Some things are the same, the bad things, but... Well. It just needs to be said. Not that he'd blame this Tony for judging him based on that Bucky's actions, whatever he did.]
no subject
[He's pretty sure he wouldn't want to be judged by his counterparts either.]
What's between him and me is personal.
no subject
I get it. I ain't askin'. [Their business is their own. He and the other Bucky aren't the same, and he doesn't want to nose into his life.]
