Karolina was clearly pleased by the fact that she had her space to cook. It was a hobby she enjoyed and didn't get to do enough of at the Academy, so it was a little hard to not be preoccupied by her excitement and make sure her girlfriend was comfortable. She set her bag down near the kitchen before doubling back to America. "I'm sure we're going to have more than enough hands in the kitchen, so I guess just chill out for a little bit?" She smiled, tapping a quick kiss on the other girl's lips before turning her eyes to the others. "And you guys be nice."
"When are we ever anything but sugar and spice and everything nice?" came a voice from the group. Nico was carrying what looked like a large thermos. "I made punch." And she'd brought something in a flask to liven the drink up if the dinner wound up going disastrously. Karolina swept in to give her friend a tight hug as they exchanged cheek kisses. It was clear that they were tight. Karolina took Nico's container and her groceries into the kitchen, and Nico shrugged off her black coat before bringing a hand to her hip and eyeing America with open scrutiny.
"Can I interest any of you lovely ladies in a round of Smash Brothers?" Chase asked, playing the good host even as he waggled his eyebrows playfully.
