Cal had figured it was only expected for him to attend, given the fact that he roomed with Namor. And for all that Namor was far from among his favorite people, the guy liked Abs, so he couldn't be all bad. So here Cal was, with Abs in tow, of course.

Besides, free pizza.

He hadn't expected that speech, though.

He was standing in a corner of the room, feeding Abs a pepperoni off of his pizza, for each one he ate himself, when Namor walked over. "Hey. That was... a speech."
