Who: Any of Sollux's friends who saw the invitation.
Where: Private room at a local restaurant.
When: 2/22, early evening.
What: Birthday party/dinner thing, because Aradia was serious about it.
Rating: PG or PG13, SOME OF THE GUESTS HAVE LANGUAGE WARNINGS (Sollux and Karkat).

[ It's a party slash dinner thing! The room is decorated with red and blue streamers and such, and there are party hats for anyone who wants them (if you don't want them, you can probably get away with not having them). It's a pretty simple layout, really. There is also a cake (...and a mini cake for Karkat Vantas, for Reasons having to do with slight bribery and promises) and various other sweets around, so there's that. When the cake is served there will be a mandatory birthday song singing, sorry Sollux.

There aren't any real surprises here, it is literally just a birthday dinner with decorations. ENJOY, and feel free to start any thread you like for mingling. ]

Is it really? It gives you something to complain about, so isn't that a good thing?

[ because you like that or something? what ]

I...

[ .... ]

I don't even know how to respond to that.

Hmm? So am I wrong, then? But I don't think you're actually in a bad mood right now.

I'm always in a bad mood, AA.

No, you're always a grump. There's a difference! You can't tell me you're not happy when you win a badge or code something, or even just when you're arguing with Karkat or someone and say something that lets you "win".

...You're so ridiculously competitive, haha.

It's the most twisted, unhealthy kind of "happy" one can achieve, though.

Not arguing on the competitive.

I don't mind. As long as you're happy, I'm happy!

[ And even when you're not happy she's probably still happy look being alive is great. ]

It's okay not to be happy in the same way other people are, you know. If that weren't the case, I'd probably be at least as badly off!

[For that, Aradia gets a hard stare. It's really not okay to be happy in a different way than other people are. Because you know what happens when you do that? You're sick in the pan. You're Sollux-tier sick in the pan.]

I have two emotions, AA. Anger and despair.

[ The hard stare doesn't really work on her, as such. She frowns for a second, but then shrugs with a smile. ]

Now you're being overdramatic! So are you saying you've never felt anything but those two things here or at home, ever?

Because I don't think that's true. You have fun with me in "normal" ways, too, you know. That counts as an emotion, you dork.

Yes, and they're all relatives of anger.

[Sollux. Honey, just... stop.]

[ ...pffffffft. Laughing is probably not the best reaction here, but. ]

So our friendship and everything else is a relative of anger? If you say so, I guess I won't argue the point!

Calm down, you can be as misanthropic as you want! Do you want me to make you a crown of misanthropy? Will that make you feel better?

Crown of misanthropy. Yes.

I think we can swing it, since it's your birthday. ...Hm, modify some more party hats?

Party hats are the most non-misanthropic things that have ever existed. We need something better.

...Plastic forks?

[ Are those misanthropic she's not sure. ]

Sporks? Those are pretty weird.

Those are just dumb.

[Misanthrope lyf is hard.]

Right! So they're mistanthropic in the silverware world!

[ Did she just call him dumb? The world may never know. ]

Well, we don't have much else on hand! Unless you want you crown to be more of a turban of streamers.

I'm so done with this conversation. Streamers! Streamers. Fine.

oh my god.

[WHY DOES HE KNOW YOU AGAIN]

Are you? You didn't walk away yet, so you're still involved!

[ Aradia you don't want him to walk away.

Forever laughing, though. ]

Oh my gosh we need to take a picture!!! I'm putting it in my binder.

[ ... ]

[He's gone.]

[ SHE KNOWS WHERE YOU STAY.

But haha nope she will just go to bother Karkat instead. ]

[success.]
