[ athena thought that preparing something like this was going to be easy, but it proved to be more challenging than she had imagined. she's been in and out of her apartment all evening, carrying various items and bringing it up to the rooftop.
and of course, she had visualised this better in her head. a blanket fort in the middle of the rooftop! but since she doesn't have a lot of money to buy the materials needed, she ends up with nothing but blankets. no fort... smh... at least it still looks nice and comfortable.
she didn't want to use candles just in case they accidentally burn the apartment building down, so instead, she opts for fairy lights and outlines the blanket on the ground with it. it's not what she thought it would look like, but it still looks nice!
there's even a small cooler next to the blankets, and it's where she's keeping the wine chilled. a small basket rests atop it with various kinds of snacks: chips, cheese, crackers, and popcorn... the selection of snacks is probably unusual, but it's to her tastes. people don't call her ms. fancy-pants for nothing.
when her alarm goes off though, she heads to the emergency exit and waits for merlin on the other side, where the elevator is. she thought her first case was nerve-wracking, but this. this is something else.
she hopes she never messes up.
she keeps looking at her cerevice, literally waiting by the elevator doors. her feet rock back and forth; her hands make way for widget and taps at it. she's so on the edge...
and waiting just makes her even more so. she begins to pace around the hall, the click of her shoes echoing through. why does she have to wait like this...? ]
ehhh
