A Birthday Boy
Who: James, Keith and the people invited to James' birthday party (Toki, Ana, Adelaide, Nana, Ruby, Nadia, Allura & Yuya!)
When: August 13th (Keith part), August 18th (Party)
What: James' birthday (spent at home in Arizona) & James' Soleil birthday party, spent at a Café de la Lune in Soleil.
Warnings: None for party, mentions of NSFW in Keith & James', though anything explicit will be moved off-comm.
[ All people listed above will have received a text message on August 15th. ]
Hey there!
I'm currently out of the country, but my birthday passed recently and I'd like to celebrate with my friends a little once I return home. Are you free on August 18th? I'd love to get a group together and go down to Café de la Lune for the afternoon. It'll be my treat.
No worries if you're not free that day, but I'd love to see you there!
[ On the actual day of, everyone will find that James has reserved the biggest table in the café so everyone can fit comfortably. He's already ordered a few pastries for everyone and is more than willing to order more. James is pretty much beaming. Also his toad is here. Just sitting on his shoulder. Occasionally being fed bits of cake from a special toad-reserved spoon. ]
Thank you all for coming! If I'm honest, I actually had a bit of trouble making friends when I came here. That was new to me. I'm all the more happy to have met all of you. You made me look forward to coming back to France after vacation.
((Feel free to post open top levels and just chit-chat with one another / interrupt conversations, as it tends to happen at group tables. Also no pressure to tag in, anyone who doesn't will just be seen as having been busy that day and not as having skipped his party, haha.))

I never get to use it :'D
[Then there's a beat as she remembers herself, and she clears her throat, settling her hands back into her lap.] I mean. Yes. I would.
I drank mine so quickly, I feel as though I didn't truly get to enjoy it.
haha it's such a good icon!!
Here, you can have mine.
[He'll push it towards her, then pause in the middle of doing so.]
Unless you wanted to try a different flavor.
This thread is very silly
...There are other flavors?
[said while she's halfway between reaching for his glass. ]
they need that sometimes
[Squinting at the cafe menu from his seat, then:]
Yeah. Those three. I've seen specialty places back home with a lot more than that. Just depends on what kind of ice cream they have.
[/SAGENOD.]
no subject
Strawberry.
Looking back at Keith, with shining eyes,]
Are there any specialty stores in France?
no subject
[DOES HE LOOK LIKE A FRENCH MILKSHAKE CONNOISSEUR?]
You should google it.
no subject
I would prefer not to.
[Watch your language!]
no subject
What's wrong with googling?
no subject
There is nothing... wrong with it, I suppose. I'm just surprised you brought it up, is all.
no subject
Probably everyone here has googled something. Multiple times a day even.
no subject
[She leans in close, dropping her voice down to a whisper.
I appreciate that you consider me such a close friend, but I would prefer if we drop this topic. I will learn about the milkshakes on my own.
no subject
Why are you whispering?
[He'll do her the courtesy of at least dropping his own voice down to a whisper because apparently that's Altean google decorum.]
Hasn't anyone introduced you to google yet? What do you think I'm talking about?
no subject
[There's a quirk in her expression as finally, finally she realizes that just maybe they could be talking about two very different homonyms. She's never heard it used as a noun before.
Ah. She struggles, because there's not any polite synonyms to use here either. Deflecting.] What are you talking about?
no subject
[Google. He's talking about google. C'mon Princess!!]
I can just show you. [And with that, he'll start reaching into his pocket to start pulling out his phone. Perhaps to Allura's chagrin, he remains pretty undeterred.]
What's google mean to you?
no subject
[When he reaches for his pants (pocket) she full-body turns away, covering her eyes with her hands.
She peeks out through her fingers.]
...I don't wish to say it outloud. But it is not polite for mixed company.
