Let's backdate this party like there's no tomorrow.

[kickingcatcher]

Who: Anyone who wants to come wish Ruby a happy birthday.
What: Ruby's birthday party!
When: July 2nd.
Where: House 11.
Summary: Ruby's got a birthday. And a cast who throws parties. And he doesn't know about this one.
Rating: PG for Pretty Good Parties (yea).
[As everyone was finishing up the decorations, since a lot of effort had to be put into them. They all knew Ruby would want it to be beautiful and whatnot, so that's what they got. They have streamers, balloons, little party poppers for when he walks in, and a cake shaped like a ribbon won from a Master Rank contest. It wasn't easy putting it all together, but it looked pretty great when they finished. Now all they had to do was wait for Ruby to come in and surprise him. Because when he does, there will be confetti everywhere.

But aside from the surprise, there will be food, mingling, games, and much fun. So everyone can go wild. But not too wild or Crys will come and scold you.]

Surprising the birthday boy

[kickingcatcher]

[This is for when Ruby just walks into the house, and all the poppers go off and he goes deaf. But for now, everyone's all quiet and waiting for him to walk in. And yes.

The lights are off. First tag goes to Ruby, and we can all just go from there and tag him.]

This is the part where Ruby is surprised 1/??

[contestconqueror]

[SO HE WALKS BACK TO THE HOUSE AND ALL THE LIGHTS APPEAR TO BE OFF INSIDE?

That's strange. Did the power go out? Are power outages even possible in Luceti?

Let's go open the door and see what's-]

2/?? only the manliest reactions go here

[contestconqueror]

[LOUD NOISES!!!
(including Ruby's shrieking)]

3/4

[contestconqueror]

[Waaaaait a second... this is a party? This is a party for him?]

4/4 What did I tell you?

[contestconqueror]

a-ahhhh....

[His hands are over his mouth to further muffle his shock. These.are tears.of happiness.]

[pathofstrength]

[HAPPY BIRFDAY

Once Ruby's past the initial surprise and walking into the house, Sapphire throws a handful of confetti at him.]

[contestconqueror]

Hey Sapphire! [brushing that confetti off as he speaks-] So I see you told everyone about my birthday, huh? [You're the only one who initially knew, after all ...he thinks.]

[pathofstrength]

[....HAHA WHO TOLD YOU THAT]

Uh-!

[be smooth]

Yeah - sure-!

[contestconqueror]

...Thank you. [A tiny smile and few words, but the gratitude in them far exceeds the size of the gesture or the length of his speech. This is a rare moment where he isn't being a jerkdere. Enjoy it while you can, Sapphire.]

Mingling!

[kickingcatcher]

[Just want to talk with people? Maybe grab some food? Or try out that Wii they have there! Whatever floats your boat, normal party shenanigans go here!]

[generalflirt]

[Hi Masaomi is here if anyone wants him, looking tired but trying to be peppy still in his cast]

[bravefighter]

[Gotta eat ALL THE THINGS.]

[hark_a_suicune]

[How about "all of the above"? You can't restrict Eusine to your comfortable little classification!!!
So uh, yes. He'll definitely talk with people, he'll definitely grab some food, and he'll definitely try out that Wii over there. He'll fumble a bit and make a fool of himself at first (>implying that isn't what he does all the time), but soon you'll find he's... well... surprisingly good at it. You know. Just in case you needed any proof he's a gigantic nerd with a penchant for gadgets.

He will pick all the most annoying characters in SSBB and fuck yo' shit up with them you have no idea]

Cake and presents!

[kickingcatcher]

[Time for the main event! Look at that glorious cake. It's in the shape of a Master Rank ribbon from a Pokemon contest, and there's the presents beside it, too. Now let's have us some good cake and wrapping paper getting all over the floor.]

[pathofstrength]

[Sapphire figured that a Pokedoll was the least offensive of the gifts Ruby would like. There weren't any plush Pokemon at the item store, but there were some plush not-Pokemon. She found one that looked like a Zigzagoon and stuck a present bow on its head.

Totally anonymous gift sitting by the cake, there.]

[contestconqueror]

[Thank you, anon for this wonderful gift! It's a cute little critter... whatever it is.]

Awww... [Look at those adorable beady eyes.]

[generalflirt]

[In terms of presents, Masaomi is a bit... well. Things are a bit weird now since Temari is dead and Shikamaru is in a funk.

Anyway. He still is here. And he's slightly uncomfortable to be here but Shikamaru is showing fake signs of being okay, so he accepts it somewhat. He can't give a totally cool gift though so instead he just gives...!

...A huge bag of pop rocks that he found in one of the shops. Which is in another bag. Bagception]

Re: Cake and presents!

[mischiefbreeder]

[You get a gift from Gold, Ruby! Once you manage to break your way through the seemingly unending wave of boxes, you'll reach the gift!

It's a pair of goggles, dark lenses with red frames. Aww yeah, lookin' pretty stylish, Ruby. They definitely look better than your glasses that's for sure, and you can see through them perfectly fine! They're a sign of friendship, you know. He gives goggles to all his friends.

...He may have also bedazzled this pair. Hopefully that doesn't make it too gaudy, right?? Something like that's right up your alley!]
