Happy Birthday to You...

Who: The Everdeen sisters and whoever knows them (plus dates, if applicable)
What: Belated birthday party for Prim.
When: Starting Saturday evening (6/8), around 5 PM.
Where: House 43
Summary: Thanks to the spirit possessions, Katniss cancelled the original party she had planned. Time for Surprise Party #2!
Rating: PG/PG-13 if any fights break out?

She had gotten up early to make certain everything was perfect. Double checked that all the bedroom locks worked, moved all of the valuables out of the living area and into Sharpe's bedroom. And then she cleaned the house more thoroughly than she had in a long, long time.

Hours later, with Aang's help, everything seemed perfect. The inside of the house was decorated with crepe streamers. Though there was an emphasis on blue, she made certain to alternate with other colors: whites and greens and purples and reds. Balloons floated along the ceiling, interspersed among strings of twinkling lights. A huge banner reading "Happy Birthday Primrose!" hung across the space between living room and kitchen.

Food covered every available surface, bowls and plates and bowls of punch and other drinks resting on top of blue paper table cloths. Peppermints and chocolates and other sweets covered the dining room table, with a two-tiered cake in the center. It had been pushed against one of the walls to make space for dancing and talking. In the kitchen, various dinners - stews and roasted meats and an assortment of vegetables and starches - covered the counters. Snack type foods were scattered both inside and out, a mix of cheeses and crackers, vegetables and fruits.

Extra chairs surrounded a table in the backyard, which had been equally decorated. Balloons were tied to chairs and a mixture of streamers and lights hung over any tree branches that crossed into the yard. In one corner, a goat stood tied up to a poll with a pink bow around her neck. Space had been provided for a D.J. table if Teddy or Sabriel grew tired of playing.

Everything seemed perfect. She only hoped that Prim would love it, too.

I think he was using some sort of glaze, which might help keep the freshness a little, but...I'll be sure to ask about that, absolutely.
rashness: (Leap before you look)

[personal profile] rashness 2013-06-22 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
[Glaze... oh. Oh, yeah, that could work. He looks thoughtful for a moment and nods]

You oughta, yeah! Because it'd be impressive if we could make these a normal thing.
prims: (Default)

[personal profile] prims 2013-07-03 08:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Then I will, boss!

[ ...the title's said only semi-teasingly. ]

After all, Seventh Heaven's old specialties were mostly based around...um, Sanji? Right?
rashness: (Arthas)

[personal profile] rashness 2013-07-05 03:46 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not the Boss. Sanji w-- is? Was. So yeah, a lot of the specialties were based on his skills.

[He says this a little sheepishly. Really, he's not fit to be a "boss" in any respect, and he knows it. Or at least, he believes that. ]
prims: (+ laughing.)

[personal profile] prims 2013-07-13 05:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, you did hire me!
rashness: (Be Bop Fly)

[personal profile] rashness 2013-07-13 09:07 pm (UTC)(link)
--But that's different.
prims: (= heh. side glance.)

[personal profile] prims 2013-07-14 11:49 am (UTC)(link)
How so?

[ She's actually pretty curious what he's going to say, here. ]
rashness: (Good Evening)

[personal profile] rashness 2013-07-15 06:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Because... like. ...It's just different.

[...] I'm not the one bossing everyone around or nothing.
prims: (+ grin. joyful.)

[personal profile] prims 2013-07-20 05:49 pm (UTC)(link)
So we're just a group of people who collectively decided to run the diner?
rashness: (Bloodhoof)

[personal profile] rashness 2013-07-21 09:14 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that's it! [...But maybe they should find a boss, because even as she says that he knows it sounds silly]
prims: (+ gentle smile.)

[personal profile] prims 2013-07-28 06:52 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't think I've ever heard of a democratic restaurant before.
rashness: (Continue with that force)

[personal profile] rashness 2013-07-30 08:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Well... well it works for now. You got a problem with it?!
prims: (+ listening aside.)

[personal profile] prims 2013-08-09 09:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Not at all. I think it's sort of nice, actually.
rashness: (From her business trip)

[personal profile] rashness 2013-08-10 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
Oh.

[....!] T-thanks.
prims: (+ you i like.)

[personal profile] prims 2013-08-11 03:02 am (UTC)(link)
No problem! ...And I should probably let you talk to other people, now.
rashness: (The dean's house)

[personal profile] rashness 2013-08-15 10:56 pm (UTC)(link)
More like I shouldn't be keepin' the birthday girl.

[And he grins one more time before patting her briefly on the shoulder and turning to follow her advice] Happy birthday, again.
