Ooh, a summary
In Which Eros Fucks with Death and Raph and Many Other People Too, and In Time Recieves his Comeuppance.
This is my first summary, so do let me know about anything I've messed up.
The lead-up
So a little while before Valentine’s day, Eros meets Gavroche for the first time, and divulges to him his identity, and the fact that he’s preparing for Valentine’s day. A little struck by how Gavroche reminds Eros of ... well, himself (that is, fun-loving and childlike) Eros asks if Gav will help him on V-Day. Gavroche agrees.
Over the next little while, Eros is spotted with big bags of stuff (i.e., love-guns and gangster outfits) first by Eris and then later by the Weasley twins. In both cases Eros is convinced to let them in on the fun, too. Silly Eros.
A little while before V-day, he arms Gavroche for battle. The others, too (off-screen.)
V-day.
Valentine’s day arrives. Eros (as Cupid - there is a distinct difference) enters and talks to a bunch of different people about silly things. He hits on the ladies (and men) and hands out gifts.
Meanwhile, a bunch of different people are being shot, by Cupid and his helpers (there are many; I shall not link them all.) It should be noted though, that Cupid himself only shot Norrington and Anamaria.
Elsewhere, Tim comes in, and talks to Raph. It’s all well and good until Gavroche shoots them... then it gets even better. If by ‘better’ I mean ‘they have totally inappropriate and normally unwanted kinky fun’, which I do.
The next morning they wake up, freak the fuck out. Raph and Death have a fight; Death is mad at Raph, Raph is mad at himself, everyone’s quite confused.
Shit hits the fan
A little while later, Eros comes in, thinking everything’s fine. Eris approaches him, and tells him to ”avoid the car”. Eros at first thinks she’s just being, well, Eris, but this is not the case. Turns out some of the V-day stuff got a little more out of control than some people (read: Eris) thought it should have. Eros sees no problem with this at all, and doesn’t understand why everyone can’t just love one another. When he points this out, Eris threatens to hurt him for being so damn stupid. (Though she does not.) Eventually Eros gets annoyed and points out that she bloody well shot people, too, but she seems to have been more responsible about it than he thinks anyone should have to be. Note to Eros: things are bad when the goddess of Discordia thinks you’re being too Chaotic.
In that same thread, the shit really hits the fan when Death wants to talk to Eros. They beat around the bush for a little while, until Death comes out and says, ”You shot Raph, biatch!” (I’m paraphrasing.) Once again, Eros doesn’t get why this is so wrong. Surely a night of ... whatever happened with Tim doesn’t mean Raph loves Death any less? He doesn’t understand why she’s hurting, and why Raph is hurting for that matter. After some infuriating Sophistic logic, things steep for a moment to personal attacks. Death tells Eros to stop making people fall in love all willy-nilly, and Eros tells Death to stop falling in love all willy-nilly. (Again, I paraphrase.) But Eros agrees to apologize.
The setup
Over the next little while, Eros appears in the bar a couple of times, disguised as a woman. It’s a stupid disguise, as of course Death can see right through it, but that’s not really the point. (Really this more as to do with Eros’ overarching character development, and isn’t so necessary to this plot.) She’s on the lookout for Raph, but can’t seem to find him. I won’t link those threads, nothing happens in them.
Finally Eros meets Mike, who she guesses is related to Raph. (Speciesism!) Mike hasn’t seen him, but mentions that Raph might be at the party he and Indy are throwing on the weekend. Eros is invited.
The Partay
The weekend arrives. A short while into the party, Eros comes in, still woman-shaped. She and Mike flirt. (Thread still going, it’s been slowtimed.)
Not too much later, Death and Raph enter, and Raph goes off to get punch. Eros, seeing Death alone, approaches, and they talk for a bit. Meanwhile, Indy uses strange magical powers to recognise Eros-in-disguise (dispite the fact that Eros and Indy have never met before, in either form) and point him out to Raph. Um. *Cough*. But that’s cool, it worked for Plot. Of course Raph is pissed and wants revenge, so he storms over and punchs Eros right in the face. Wham bam thank you ma’am! Eros is cut by... glass and... glasses and stuff. Death is upset. Raph feels vindicated. Buuuut, Eros displays masochistic tendancies. She doesn’t want to deal with being hated, so she’ll take the physical pain instead, thanks. But Raph’s done. After Eros exits, Death and Raph have a little fight. But later on, they meet out outside and make up.
The end! For now.

On the recognition front, Eris had told Indy that her brother may be coming to the party and an assumed conversation between Indy and Mike probably alerted him to the actual invite. During the party I couldn't tag everyone but I also liked to at least assume Indy had greeted all guests and given them a drink upon arrival. But still... apologies for the tenuous link. I'm just glad it worked.

Because you did this during the thread, too, although the other way around.
Eris did in fact mention that Eros might show up at the party.
Which means you mean to say "nephew" not "brother"...
