Summary: It's Helios' birthday so all of his friends are throwing him a surprise party. There's cake and cookies and mistletoe?
Rating: D for derp?


How do you celebrate the birthday of one derpy magical headmaster with an oversized sweet tooth? With lots and lots of cake and cookies. There are decorations, a table full of assorted baked goods and the occasional bag of chips or veggie platter to balance things out, and all of Helios' friends and Luceti family gathered to wish him a happy birthday on this special day.

Getting him out of the house was easy; Ginia pulls him out of the house under the guise of food and Christmas gift shopping, waiting for Giles' message that everything is ready before leading him back. And when they do return, it's all the people that care about him and wanting to make this day special greeting him with a merry chorus of "Surprise!"

Oh, no. That means it's fun to get to know him little by little.

[shadedsunlight]

[Ginia hums in light agreement. It's very true. It's like peeling an onion slowly unwrapping a present and seeing a little bit more each time.]

It is, and there's a lot to get to know with him.

[lostinmyway]

We can always learn something new about him, can't we?

[shadedsunlight]

Yes, we can. All sorts of nice things to learn too. [Some things that are not safe for the ears of Grune or anyone else for that matter.]

Oh! Have you eaten yet?

[lostinmyway]

[She thinks about that.] Hmm.... Have I?

[shadedsunlight]

[Just going to jog her memory along...] There's cake and cookies. And chips too.

[lostinmyway]

[Very good idea, Ginia.]

Oh, maybe I should have some of those.

[shadedsunlight]

You should. You and Giles did such a wonderful job with the cake, it'd be a pity not to have some.

[lostinmyway]

Thank you! It was a lot of fun to bake with him. I hope we can do it again soon.

[shadedsunlight]

I'm sure you two will be able to. Christmas is coming up so there's lots of baking that can be done for that.

[lostinmyway]

Oh, what kinds of baking?

[The more she hears about this Christmas thing, the better she likes it.]

[shadedsunlight]

Cookies, lots of cookies. Sugar cookies and gingerbread are popular, but anything really. I like doing homemade candy like fudge or toffee or peppermint bark. Rice krispie treats, with the little red and green colored ones. Um... really, anything.

[lostinmyway]

Oh, my. That all sounds so good!

Do you think we could make all of it?

[shadedsunlight]

I think we could. I don't see why not. [Says the blind woman.]

[lostinmyway]

And then we can share it all with everyone!

[shadedsunlight]

It's all a part of the fun. It'd be a pity to bake lots of delicious things and then not share it. We should ask Giles and Helios if they'd like to help.

[lostinmyway]

Oh, that would be very nice. Then we could all bake together!

[shadedsunlight]

It'd be a lot of fun. [Less chance of the kitchen burning down too. Of would that be greater with Helios around?] I'll have to ask them sometime.

[lostinmyway]

Maybe we could do it today.
