Surprise Birthday Party!

[shieldofjustice.livejournal.com]

Who: Athrun Zala, Rise Kujikawa, and any and all of Athrun's friends in the Goldenrod City area!
Where: Goldenrod City, at a restaurant party room
When: October 29, around dinner
Summary: It's Athrun's birthday, and Rise has arranged for a surprise party, getting all of Athrun's friends in Goldenrod to attend. (If your character is a friend of Athrun's, feel free to assume Rise gave him/her an invite.) Of course, Athrun has no idea that he's walking into a party. Expect fun and hilarity, and maybe some heartwarming!
Rating: G, PG if you stretch it.
Log:
Another birthday had come. Athrun had not given it very much thought, but apparently Rise had. All Athrun was expecting tonight was a quiet dinner with his closest friend here.

When he arrived at the restaurant, Rise wasn't there. Instead, the host led him back to where he'd be sitting. Of course, it wasn't to any of the tables in the main dining area, but around to the side, where a door led into a private party area. Athrun opened the door, and stepped through...

"SURPRIIIIIISE!"

REACTION

[shieldofjustice.livejournal.com]

He just got surprised; he'll need a chance to react. Take this chance to say hi!

[Guess who's natural curiousity has lead him to this area! He's looking about as suprised as Athrun.]

... Oi, oi. Is it someone's birthday party or did I miss the memo?

[shieldofjustice.livejournal.com]

Huh?

[He turns around...]

Keiichi? You mean you aren't...

[Motioning to the others.]

[restardom.livejournal.com]

[ look at this beaming face. ]

Athruuuun! Happy Birthday~!

[shieldofjustice.livejournal.com]

Wha-- This is--

[He takes a minute to get his bearings.]

Rise! Did -- did you organize this?!

[spear-master.livejournal.com]

Happy Birthday, Athrun!

[ For hugging we have Rise, so he will just smile at him. ]

[shieldofjustice.livejournal.com]

[Athrun's still getting over the initial shock.]

Just...just how many people are here?

[swordofimpulse.livejournal.com]

[/SLAPS ATHRUN ON THE BACK.

in a friendly way of course.]

Yo!

[shieldofjustice.livejournal.com]

[And here a laugh escapes.]

I'd say I should have known that you'd be here, too, but technically I didn't know that this party was even happening.

[combat_butler]

Happy Birthday, Athrun-san!

*Hayate is off out of the way, since he's not too accustomed to social gatherings where he doesn't know everyone.*

[Athrun still seems surprised, but he tries to brush it off. He steps a little closer.]

Ah, well, th-thanks.

...Wow, I think Rise invited everyone in Goldenrod that I know.

[10yen_idol]

[Oh, she isn't just here to say hi:]

Uu-uuu~! HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ATHRUN!

[shieldofjustice.livejournal.com]

Whoa -- Yayoi! You knew about this, too?

DINNER

[shieldofjustice.livejournal.com]

Order whatever you want! Sit down and eat! Talk with people while you eat!

GIFTS

In the corner is a table for placing gifts. Leave a description here. Or, if you'd like, give it to him personally!

[spear-master.livejournal.com]

[ Some time at the party, Croix called Athrun for a moment to give him his gift. Polite and everything. It's a small box that has a CD inside it. ]

[shieldofjustice.livejournal.com]

...Oh, thank you.

[Athrun begins to unwrap the gift.]

Is this a CD?

[swordofimpulse.livejournal.com]

[Shinn prefers to give the gift in person, so he's calling out Athrun.]

[shieldofjustice.livejournal.com]

[And Athrun approaches.]

What is it?

[combat_butler]

*While Hayate might have reason to duck out early, he at least had time to get Athrun a gift.

So somewhere on the table is a wrapped box containing a decently scaled model kit of a Metagross! Guy likes to build things, so a model kit seemed a reasonable purchase.*

[shieldofjustice.livejournal.com]

[Within a few days, Hayate will receive a Thank You card from Athrun for the gift. He's grateful to have the chance to build something again.]

[what is subtlety, she does not know. So instead of clunking her present on the table, she tackles Athrun, gift in hand.]

Athrun-kun! Athrun-kun! Happy birthday!

[10yen_idol]

[Yayoi being Yayoi, she spent a lot of time trying to figure out what Athrun wants the most...]

[... and somehow managed to record, straight off the radio, Lacus's songs.]
