happy birthday, suzuha 🎉

[bowtiedbones]

Who: Kai-un and you!
When: Sept 28
Where: a FESTIVE classroom
What: it's a birthday party and you're invited!
Warnings: idk how hard are you going to party

[ Maybe you saw the invite slipped under your dorm door or maybe you followed the trail of confetti leading down the hall, but one way or another..! Welcome to Hanabi's birthday party! ]

[ Kai-un has taken over an empty classroom and decked it out in full party style! Balloons, streamers, the works! The desks have been shoved to the side of the room to clear space for mingling and dancing, and the teacher's desk has been turned into a snack buffet. It looks like there's even party favors...!

So grab a drink, get some cake, and have fun! ]

[ he has never even seen balloons before in my life but he helped inflate some and put up some streamers anyway. why not I guess

wears a face of perfect indifference and eats some arare ]

[bowtiedbones]

[ don't mind this guy standing behind a bunch of balloons with flowers in his hands, doing his best to not cough up blood. very normal activities. ]

[springing at NEW GUESTS to push a small bouquet of daisies and dandelions into their hands]

Hi! Thanks so much for coming!

[demonvinegar]

[ he only ended up here cause he's been stalking shizun ]

... is this some kind of occasion?

[poetaste]

[Whoa, hey, she wasn't expecting flowers, but it's the raven on her shoulder that squawks in surprise as the mini bouquet is crammed into Cadence's arms.]

It's the least I could do, right? People showed up for Lyric's party after the girls poured their very hearts and souls into it. Who's the birthday girl?

[isdf]

[Yuma turns the bouquet around in his hands, giving the blooms a cursory look before smiling up at her.]

Thank you for the invitation. [He glances around at the decor.] So this is Hanabi's birthday party . . .

[brokenlance]

[Dimitri shows up looking awkward, like he's not sure what to do or if he's supposed to be here.

and now he has a bouquet.]

Oh! Rather, I should be thanking you for the invitation...?

[inexorableiron]

[if you think this man is not working on party favors you were wrong! how weird! the himbo is writing out the favors! he has never been to a birthday party in his life but that isn't stopping him from from following instructions and setting everything up nicely]

This looks interestin' now.

[bowtiedbones]

You guys did such a good job! I know I've complained about yellow, but when it's gold it works so great as decoration!

[demonvinegar]

[ ignoring their kinda-fight earlier, ]

What are you writing...?

[brokenlance]

[is this some kind of birthday custom he's not familiar with?]

Are you preparing a speech?

[isdf]

[After speaking to Eliza, it's time to talk business with Hamn.]

Greetings, Magus. What's crackalackin'?

[parttimesoldier]

[Here is the birthday girl, looking super stoked!! A birthday party like this is a first for her, and she wants to make sure everyone is having a good time of it. Forget that we're in ghost school for a second, we're here to have A GOOD TIME.

And to ensure this, she will be heading your way with a slice of cake to offer you.]

Here, I hope you like strawberry.

[It's her favorite!]

[demonvinegar]

[ more cake. he's never actually seen cake before in his life, and also has never had something with so much sugar before in his life, so he is now holding two (2) cakes and looking kind of overwhelmed ]

Ah... thank you. But I don't see any strawberries.

[brokenlance]

I've never tried one before! Thank you.

[graciously accepts this mysterious berry cake]

The warmest of birthday wishes to you, Suzuha. How many years will this be?

[isdf]

Thank you.

[He accepts the cake with an appreciative smile. It's a wonder whether he'll like it or not, but this is the happiest he's seen her yet.]

You seem to be enjoying the party, Hanabi.

[inexorableiron]

Sure do, lady dude.

[It will probably be just as good as strawberry health potion]

Is it lookin' alright in here?

[pissandvinegar]

[ accepting the plate with both hands ]

Thank you, Hanabi-guniang. But aren't we meant to be giving things to you?

[bowtiedbones]

Who doesn't? Happy Birthday!!

[titlecard]

[ We're here to have a GOOD TIME. Mark enters the classroom and even despite everything, it feels so... normal. Like what any birthday party should be. ]

Always. Happy birthday!

[ He beams at her, accepting the cake. ]

Thought you were the one who was supposed to be getting things from other people though, not giving.

[ Does he have anything to give her though... well... no. He just kind of showed up, ]

[rugpull]

Happy birthday!! I brought a present!!

[its an apple pie]

[bowtiedbones]

Oh wow!

[parttimesoldier]

Woah, awesome!! Didja make it yourself?
