Rushing is one of the things that Caroline hates, but she also likes to have everything put together neatly so that things are handled. Normally, she's good with handling herself, but she wasn't just coming to Thanksgiving by herself. No, she brought Neal with her; Luke had extended the invitation, and the last thing Caroline wanted was for Neal to be along on Thanksgiving.

It's still a little... odd, between the two of them. It's getting better, but definitely there's some things for them to work through. Still, she shows up on Luke's doorstep right on time, a casserole dish of green bean casserole in her hands. After setting it down, she makes the rounds, snagging of wine, and she's honestly thankful for such a large group of people. It feels... homey, almost. Safe. She can't stop the tiny smile on her face, and because of the warmth of the people here, she doesn't even try.
