Party!!!, Overland Park, KS, Sunday FT
Yesterday, Charmaine and Neil had gotten married in a tiny municipal wedding ceremony that had somehow been better for everyone than Charmaine's previous attempt at a marriage. And early today, the newly wedded couple, along with their infant daughter, had taken off for Houston to go househunting. And Kate was already feeling weird that it was really just her and Marshall and Bod around, now.
So it was a good thing this was the day she'd invited people to come visit. Some booze had been acquired, and Marshall had busied himself in the kitchen making snacks, and they were all set. It was going to be weird since Kate had invited a bunch of people who'd never been to Kansas before, but she was hoping it would be a fun kind of weird.

Re: Arrive!
"Hi," he said. "I was starting to feel like Kate doesn't have any female friends at all."
He'd never met Emma, but he was making a pretty good guess based on hazy recollections of photos.
Re: Arrive!
"Marshall, then, I presume?"
Re: Arrive!
That guess might have had something to do with how he offered his hand to be shaken. You got impressions of people through what others said of them.
Although he was polite by nature, too.

And since he liked working with the food, it worked out okay.
