The four of them are so intertwined that it's hardly a surprise for them to show up uninvited in one another's quarters. In Rachel and Edgar's case, they practically live with one another as it is, and so it probably won't come as a surprise to Edgar that his girlfriend is in the living room area when he comes in after work.

What may comes as a surprise are the streamers she'd been working on getting put up before he walked in.

There's certainly surprise on Rachel's face when she notices him come in. It quickly turns into peevishness as she gets more firmly on the ground from the semi-precarious position she'd been standing in to get the streamers up, places her hands on her hips and turns towards the general direction of the kitchen area without a word to her boyfriend.

"Andrew Benjamin Fioro!"

Her cousin's call back is a little nervous for being middle-named at, "Yes?"

"I thought you said Edgar wasn't due back for another hour!"

"He isn't!"

"Then why did he just walk in right now?"

There's a bit-off oath from her cousin and a disappointed cry that might be Argine. After a few moments, a semi-flour-covered Andrew makes his way over, meeting his best friend's gaze sheepishly as Rachel glowers rather irascibly at her cousin.

"Hey, Ed," the younger man says with a lopsided grin, "Surprise?"
