Birthday wishes

[shamelessness]

Who: Anyone!
What: Rin's Birthday
When: Dec. 27th
Where: House 15, in the living room
Summary: Shiemi is throwing Rin a birthday party. She's doing most of the setting up, but Rin was kind enough to cook for his own party. We don't want Shiemi killing anyone.
Rating: PG-13 at most I think.


Plants and heat lamps litter the living space of House 15, but they're all decorated in Christmas style. Baubles and shiny tinsel-like garland hand from bushes that range from fruit bearing to thorny. What might be most notable is that Mistletoe can be found almost everywhere. Shiemi saw people kissing under it a couple times, and despite it being a poisonous plant, if people really liked it that much then it should be at the party! The girl collected a lot of it, so people are bound to run into it! Feel free to get your grub on with Rin's homemade dishes, give out some kisses, or brag about the presents you did or did not get the Son of Satan.

Food Table

[shamelessness]

[wildbluevagner]

[Kurt spends a lot of his time at the food table. He may not be the best company given Storm's departure - but he tries to cover that by stuffing his face with food.]

[twinlionfists]

[Hinata brought a few treats from what she made at the bakery that morning with her and put it on the table when she spotted the blue young...man eating like a person possessed.

She had a feeling that she had met him before now. After a moment of thinking, she remembered him vaguely from the time where their lives were changed by the Third Party and they'd been "friends".]

It has been a while, Kurt-san. How are you doing?

[wildbluevagner]

[Now that's a face he hasn't seen in ages. He sputters as he sees her, his mouth still full of foid with a stray noodle dangling from his lip.]

Hinata? It's you!

[twinlionfists]

[He looks rather silly with the noodle hanging from his mouth, but she's not going to mention it. Nope.]

Yes, it is me. I did not know that you and Rin-kun were acquainted.

[wildbluevagner]

[He does at least quickly slurp it up.]

Well, I guess you could say we've had some similar tails. [He says as he wags is own forked tail around smugly.]

[twinlionfists]

[She blinks as she looks at his tail, ignoring the faux pas of his bad manners on display.]

I did not know that you also had a tail.

[It's not like she remembers the moment when the illusion dropped and his actual appearance was made known to her. Aside from the fact that he suddenly had blue fur.]

I am glad to see you are well.

[wildbluevagner]

[He shrugs.]

I'm glad to see you, too. I'm sorry I didn't try to get in touch before.

[twinlionfists]

[Well, she doesn't want him to beat himself up about things.]

Please, do not trouble yourself over it, Kurt-san. Things have been...difficult...since then. I am happy to see that you are well nonetheless.

[wildbluevagner]

Thanks. Same here. You know... I wouldn't mind getting to know the real you now, Hinata.

[twinlionfists]

[She gives a small chuckle under her breath.]

I would not be opposed to knowing the real you as well. Although, I fear that my fake life was far more...engaging than my real one. I was...more outgoing then, I suppose.

[wildbluevagner]

Hey... I'm sure there's still plenty interesting about you, Hinata. Even bookworms can be really cool!

[selphie_t]

[With a tray of freshly prepared food in her hands, Selphie carries the food over with a great deal of care. She's learned to dodge the heat lamps, plants and cords running rampant but she's still watching her feet for the most part.]

Shiemi, where do you want me to put this tray?

[shamelessness]

U-um! Wherever there's room? I think at the corner of the table on the other end. Thanks so much for helping.

[selphie_t]

[Selphie takes a few moments to rearrange some of the plates until there's enough room for all the dishes on the table.]

It's the least I can do after you and Rin were kind enough to let me stay with you guys. Besides... if he cooks any more food, we're gonna have to find another table.

[shamelessness]

I'm sure it'll all be eaten. Rin cooks very well.

[selphie_t]

That I can agree with!

[And being the curious little sheep that Selphie is, she gives Shiemi a curious look.]

How'd you meet Rin?

[shamelessness]

U-um. He broke into my garden back home.

[selphie_t]

Really?! He doesn't seem like the break 'n enter type though...

[More like the fly by the seat of his pants type but Selphie doesn't mention that at the moment.]

[shamelessness]

He touched the gate, and it... broke.

[selphie_t]

Hopefully he fixed it for you then! So you like to Garden? Well... that much is obvious from all the plants in the house but what kinda stuff were you growing in the Garden that Rin broke into?

I don't really have the greenest of thumbs you see. I had a cactus when I was younger and I didn't really take good care of it so it kinda became a crunchy shell of a cactus. Maybe I should try again?

[shamelessness]

We mostly did herbal plants for remedying ailments, b-but I could try and teach you how to take care of things?

[selphie_t]

I kinda flunked out on botany though.

[Selphie grins sheepishly at that memory.]

I kinda had to talk the instructor into giving me a pity pass but you're welcome to try. I'm more of a pet person than a plant person though.

[clumsyduck]

[Duck had gotten a lot more comfortable being here, but she was still far from knowing that many people here. At least she had met both Shiemi and Rin before.

Right now she's kind of hiding by the food table, examining the spread with no particular interest.]

[lostinmyway]

[In addition to bringing a present for Rin, Grune made sure to bake a nice batch of sugar cookies for his party. She'll be setting them down amidst all the other food and then going to see what the other guests brought.]
