[It's Lila's suggestion, and Laura is more than willing. Let's have a picnic!
It's a warm evening, summer that hasn't quite realized that autumn is getting ever-closer. Lemonade, sandwiches cut into small triangles for finger food, watermelon squares, macaroni and cheese, hot dog slices, and celery sticks. The food all gets packed into a basket that she hands to Wanda with a smile as she turns to help Cooper and Lila get the blankets. Nathaniel's in a baby carrier against her now-flat stomach, and she grabs the lemonade and the cups.]
It's a nice night for it, too.
[She tries to pull Wanda into their happy home, to subtly let her know that she had a place here, that she belonged somewhere. Not because of what she could do or what she was, but because there were people that cared about her. She lets her come and go as she pleases, but there's always a smile, food, the kids, and Clint's latest efforts at remodeling (Laura knows he needs his projects).]
And it'll be fun.
[She always gets the sense that Wanda hasn't had enough space in her life to care about fun.]
have some happy, I hope this is okayyy
