Who: John and whoever
What: John's birthday party!
When: Backdated to the 13th
Where: The dinning room
Rating: Low?

John hadn't really planned out a big party for himself. In fact it was pretty safe to say minus a couple times in recent years where other people had tossed parties for him together he generally was all about the small events like watching movies or playing video games with friends or family while doing his best to ignore the cakes people baked for him. That's probably why earlier that day John had blocked off the far end of the dinning room for himself and just wished up a series of decorations from the castle. Nothing big, just some balloons and streamers to make it look more partyish. A couple of bowls of punch and snack foods for anyone that might want to stop by, as well as an assortment of party hats for people to put on.

For whatever reason John seemed to have "forgotten" to wish up a birthday cake for himself.

When all of that was taken care of John parked himself at the end of the table and waited for people to get his party invitations. No he just had to hope this wasn't too last minute for people.

John's not the only one with a birthday today, you know - but why make a big deal when you can make people happy instead? Soon after she gets the invitation, Jane comes into the dining room, a wrapped present in her arms and a big smile on her face. Thank goodness Jade told her it was John's birthday in advance!

"Hey there! Happy Birthday!"

It does not take long for Dave to get there once the invites are out. Well, there's a minor delay, only because he's wishing something up that Egbert is guaranteed to have mixed feelings for.

When he makes it there, he unceremoniously places a cake in front of John. With his name on it and everything!

"Why am I here again?" He asks in the most frustratingly obtuse tone. As if he didn't wish up a goddamn ugly birthday cake knowing John hates cake and come all the way down here with the express purpose of bothering him with it.

"John!"

Jade is running a little late - literally, out of breath despite the fact that she can fly and teleport, probably just because some old habits are really hard to break. She's smiling, though, a small package wrapped in crisp blue paper tucked under one arm.

She immediately goes for the party hats.

"Hehe. Hi."

Even before she got the party invitation, Rose was all set to give John a celebratory visit. An actual birthday party is just a bonus, especially with all of the negativity going around the castle at the moment. So as soon as the invitation arrives, she grabs her neatly packaged present, changes into something less traffic-cone-orange, and heads on down to the dining room.

As soon as she sees John, she smiles brightly and walks over to greet him.

"Happy birthday, John."

Last-minute? You underestimate Aradia's power. She shows up as soon as she's available, grinning like a creeper. (Which is, uh... mainly because her face is literally stuck like that. But also because she is happy to see him!)

"Hi, John! Happy wriggling day!" she exclaims, landing in the doorway.
