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.))

Once the mice are done with their task, Allura holds out a hand to let them climb on, and she scritches their heads,]
They were with me when I woke up in my castle. I think they got caught up in the magical sleep spell I was put under by accident.
But I couldn't ask for better companions.
no subject
[Like Professor Kiske. There's a lot of them going around, apparently.]
How long were you asleep?
no subject
[Allura shakes her head, then looks unsure,]
I am not sure but it has been at least a few thousand years. Earth is very different from the one I knew.
no subject
If it was an accident and your father did it, but you didn't wake up for that long... What happened to everyone else in the kingdom?
no subject
I… I don’t believe it was an accident. [Her voice steadies,] It was to protect me, and if I can find out what he was protecting me from, I think I will know the answer to what happened to my people.
no subject
Is that- is that why you wanted to look at the Outlands books in the library? An account of your kingdom's history and what... happened to everyone?
no subject
I was hoping for some clue as to where they'd gone, or why they'd disappeared.
When I woke up I was alone in my castle. [The mice squeak and Allura smiles softly,] Aside from these four, of course.
As far as I know, I'm the last Altean left.
no subject
I'm sorry.
[The words can't change anything, and don't convey the depths of his feelings about it, but he says it anyway.]
I hope you can find answers.
no subject
I do too. [And she opens her eyes, smiling over at him. She could make a joke about how she's lucky to have found a skilled guide, but it feels too insincere. Genuinely,] Thank you for listening to me, Toki. It's... much less lonely, knowing that there are people like you here.
