If it's in the air then how come you're still being a party-pooper instead of a party-goer, hmm?
[ he's really not being a party pooper at all, but it's fun to tease him anyway. there'd be shoulder bumping going on if he wasn't hanging from a web right now. which looks a little funny, she's realizing, as people keep turning their heads to do a double-take as they walk by. but it's kind of great? okay, everything seems great right now, but the next person that looks back at them to make sure they actually saw what they saw gets a little wave and a ]
