[Alright, well. There are definitely birthday things about to happen. Sunny wishes Aubrey were here for it - did they not invite her? He considers sending her a text, but...it's not his party to host, really. Everything's alright, isn't it? He feels anxious.
[Regardless, he obediently turns to face the pile, his back to Kel as the boy begins setting up.]
Spook-y. [It's a soft, gentle correction.] She's...sweet, too. She never...uses her claws.
[Okay, yes, she shows up a little late. The logistics of hauling a small load of [gift redacted over a drawbridge were… a detail she probably could have thought more about in advance.
[Anyway, she gives the door a knock-kick with her foot.]
You guys didn’t start the party without me, right? [Just teasing.] Open up!
[Whoever does will find her hands full—one big cardboard box, wrapped and not at all lightweight, plus another wrapped rectangle atop. With her arms out straight down, Aubrey can just peer over it.]
[And someone arrived even later than that was Luz! She normally would have arrived early or at least on time, but it had been a rough week, and she had to actually create the gifts. She showed up with her gifts, along with the ones that Kel had asked her to bring.
She happened to arrive just before Aubrey though, and made a strangled noise].
[He's joking and the tone is teasing as hers. He is the one who bothered people about tthe birthday like it was his own- but now he's busy getting up all the stuff for the party. There are simple things, like apple slices cut in a way that they seem to have little bunny ears, skewers with grapes cut and rerranged so every bite is heart shaped. He did summon is inner Hero the momst for the cakes though. There are two tablecloth on the wooden table, one black and one white, and food is being split in two wides.- one for Omori, where Happy Birthday Omori little banner and a cat shaped cake. ON the other side? A Strawberry shortcake sits with because he remembered his brother preparing it often and it's one of the only japanese- influenced cakes he managed to make without a recipe. (And, of course, a 'Happpy Birthday Sunny' Banner was there on that side, too) Rest in pieces, Eren, Basil, Vaggie and Zelda's stomaches for enduring the barrage off sweets he delivered.
Presents are also divided in two piles as he places the darker packed ones on one side, all for Omori, and the brighter boxes on the other side for Sunny. He points Luz and Aubrey in that direction.]
Almost done, friends. I just need a second here.
[And, since he wasn't sure of how many candles place on top of each cake, since it was hard to tell how long Omori had been around, he put a single unlit candle on top of each cake, right in the middle. It was supposed to work, right? Chips, snacks, sweets, it was also added in the bowls, he was so glad Basil helped him out as much as he did, and he placed a large bouquet of flowers from his housemate's garden right in the middle.
Perfect. Right? The last thing to add was some light and since he couldn't affords christmas lights or anything like that.... he had to improvise. The light from outside was still bright enough, at least, and that had to be enough. The teen opened a water bottle, pouring it all down but using his powers to suspend it in the air in small, small droplets. Kel moved near Sunny, to make sure he'd get the right angle to give him a pretty view of a rainbow in the room when he turned around. That... required more concentration than he cared to admit. A nod to greet Luz and, shifting just slightly to lett the others move to Sunny's side after putting down the presents...]
You can do the honors, buddies.
[He was far too close to accidentally dropping all the water all over the place to go with happy birthday things and such, but at least everything was ready.]
( Basil feels a little more withdrawn when Aubrey and Luz arrive, but it's a far cry to when he had been scared of her when he had first arrived. Despite their emotional outbursts from the other day, it's a little less overwhelming to be here now when there was a group. He gives a quiet nod to both Aubrey and Luz. )
Um... Luz, right...? We talked a little the other day... It's good to see you.
( They had shared a nice conversation over Sleepr. He's glad to know that Kel and the others were making good friends here.
Basil helped when he could. It felt a little strange and nostalgic to help Kel with the planning, and the presents. He had quietly planned for a present of his own, but it wasn't for Sunny. He had been right when Kel had said that this was also Omori's birthday, after all.
He looks to Aubrey and Luz -- a small, uncertain smile on his face. )
[Silence - stunned. His mouth just barely hangs open, dark eyes fixed on glittering rainbow droplets and two cakes, two table cloths, two banners - Sunny and Omori...
[Beyond that, there's no reaction, for a moment. It's hard to tell if he's upset - what he's thinking at all, really. He only stares, still cradling Spooky in his arms.]
[Kel really, really went all-out for this. Gang’s all here, even Luz; and for all Aubrey’s, ahem, turmoils with (at minimum) a couple people here, the mood feels light.
[Aubrey plants her gifts right between the piles, for both Sunny and Omori. The wrapping is colorful, neither only dark or only light. The egregiousness is not strictly intentional, but, details.
[She turns back to the boy with a small, hopeful smile.]
[Kel. It was Kel, obviously. And Luz, still recovering but glad to get out here, did add her gifts to the pile. It was small and intimate, and she liked that. She could totally handle some time with people she knew and got to really like].
Heya Basil! Glad to finally see you in person!
[With Aubrey, well. Luz just have the girl a wave and was barely able to contain the beam crossing her face at seeing her again.
Luz had chosen one gift wrapped in various colors and one that was wrapped in three overlapping colors, hoping that these would suffice].
[As if Kel never went all in to celebrate his besties! And this time he had more time to practice and prepare than before- sorry if it's so much better organized than your birthday, Aubrey.-. He bites his lips, keeping concentration on the various suspended droplets and... eyes away from Sunny. He's not... this wasn't a mistake, right? Did he... freeze Sunny? too much? Crap. No, he's not the kind of guy who holds back when it's time to celebrate his buddies.]
Happy birthday, you two!
[COme on, Kel, don't drop all the goddarn water over the food AND the presents, you're better than that. He takes a deep breath, slapping his hands together so all droplets bounce together in a large ball and... he tosses it out trough the door that was still open. He knows omori's birthday is probably around THE DAY stuff went down, but...]
Just a small celebration for our beloved friends! Gotta admit it was hard to plan around Omori, we don't exactly know his tastes, but that only means we need to know him bette and, duh, be ready for something better next year, right?
Let's start the celebration folks! Who is going to start singing 'happy birthday to you' in a moo embarrassing way? Come on, come on, don't leave all the hard work to me! I already have plenty of fun stuff planned.
Like 'spin the bottle'. But it's actually orange joe and whoever it points at will drink it all. I knooooow you guys love it, heh. that was sarcastic, by the way.
[And he doesn't have any bottle of Orange joe anyway. He's just messing around, being chaotic.]
But yea. We love you. We really, really love you. So... hopefully this will be enjoyable?
