The gang was at Carl's "Castle". Carl, Leo and Chase were smoking weed; it wasn't a terribly offensive behavious to the others, but still TJ and Sydney sat by the window.
"You know what's be fucking funny?" Carl asked.
"Language" chided TJ semi-playfully.
"That we host a pride parade here!"
"Are you completely nuts!?" Jenna said, "We'd be shot on sight by those hillbillies!"
"I say fuck 'em" Flynn said, "I'm carrying a gun myself so I'll kneecap those bastards."
"Same" Leo added, eyes still red from the pot.
"I second the motion" Sydney said, flexing his mucles, "The more excuses to beat up bigots for the greater good, the better!"
Jenna face palmed.

All of the pride parade amenities were purchased online by Carl. Rainbow capes, pins, shirts, whatever his friends wanted to express themselves. Delivery was terrible, but eventually the boxes arrived, on behalf of a bored mustang. After signing, Carl began digging through the boxes.
"Okay, a blue and green shirt for you Flynn, another for Leo, a pan t-shirt for me, bi pride capes for the rest, an enamel pin for Jenna."
"I'm used to capes" Sydney said, "So I can't wait for you to stumble on your own."
"How funny" Chase said, before he tripped on his own cape.

The parade would be a a short one, from Carl's mansion to Sydney's house. They avoided the tetanus alley like the plague and only made a brief stop at the dinner.
"Oh, don't you guys look lovely!" said Janice, handing them some sandwiches for the road.
The rest of the patrons looked confused while others started looking hostile, so Leo, Flynn and Sydney stared them into compliance.

The parade was indeed short, but quite fun. Sydney held his cape like a real villain, while Flynn and Carl complimented each other. Soon the sun began to set, so they retreated to Sydney's house for the night.
"Think we can pull another one tomorrow?" Chase asked.
They pondered.
"...for the rest of this damn month" Jenna said.
