The 33rd Song [Action]

[tangledintower]

[Rapunzel has set up everything for her big first ever birthday party in Xanadu. There's lots of food, lots of desserts, and little gift bags everywhere. There's games, and music, and all those other things you need for a good party.

She's clearly excited about all of this, as a few people have already arrived, and she's chatting with them, excited and eager, if a bit tired. She did set all of this up herself, not to mention all of the food and goody bags and everything...it has to be a perfect first ever birthday party.

So! Come on in and have fun, because that's all that Rapunzel wants.]

[ooc: Open action post for Rapunzel's 19th birthday. No presents required, just people having a good time.]

Hi there!

[Dulcie shows up pretty early. She's got her party dress on (http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/set?id=30823389), and a bottle of champagne gripped in one hand.]

[Neil arrives with a giftbox wrapped in bright paper tucked under one arm, smiling but looking somewhat hesitant and awkward, like he's not quite sure what to do.

He'll mostly stand off to the side and play wallflower for now.]

[tangledintower.livejournal.com]

Dulcie, you look so pretty!! I'm glad you could make it!

[Rapunzel will not let him do that, though, so she goes over to bug him!]

Hi, Neil!

[dulcisnuntius.livejournal.com]

Thanks! This all looks amazing.

[She holds up her bottle.]

Were does booze live?

Demyx was invited to Rapunzel's party, so he decided to come. He had no real objections to parties, and besides, he liked Rapunzel! She was nice, and liked music and water. She was really friendly, too. So when he sees her, he greets her by way of grinning.

"Hey!"

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

Heeeeey. [Neil smiles and holds out the thin, rectangular package.] Happy birthday, and stuff.

[ With such preparations going into her party, it was easy to spot in Xanadu (as well as hear). He had a small gift in his hand, something simple, Sheena had thought, but hopefully good enough for a girl he had never met in person before. What chance would he get to go to a birthday party under those circumstances in home?

Stopping and looking through the people, he toyed with the idea of waiting a while, see if a certain head had popped up to the party that he knew, but nah, why bother? And so, with gift still in hand, he looked through the people for the birthday girl. Spotting her, with a friendly help of another guest who knew her better than him, he walked over to her and gave her a tap on the shoulder. ] Heey, Rapunzel?

[tangledintower.livejournal.com]

Uh...I set up a cooler over there.

[tangledintower.livejournal.com]

Oh, you didn't have to get me anything...thank you, though, Neil! That's really nice of you.

[tangledintower.livejournal.com]

Demyx! You made it!

How're you doing?

[tangledintower.livejournal.com]

[She yeeps and jumps up, but relaxes.]

Oh, hi! You made it, it's great to meet you in person!!

[dulcisnuntius.livejournal.com]

[Dulcie drops off the wine and then strolls back over casually. She sneaks up behind Rapunzel and pinches her on the arm.]

Ha! Pinch to grown an inch!

[She then grabs her by the arms and spins her around.]

And a spin to grow a dorsal fin!

[stargathering]

[ Tyr was invited to the party by Sheena, but the atmosphere of the place in Xanadu was bright enough that Tyr found it enjoyable. He barely knows Rapunzel, just seeing her over the network a few times, but he still brought a small gift for her. ]

[starfollowing.livejournal.com]

[ Cuuute. That has him smiling. ]

Heey, great to meet you too! Looks like you're party's a success. [ He takes a look around when he says this, but then, remembering the gift - ] Oh, hey - [ He holds it out in front of himself. ] Got this for you.

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

It's, y'know, no big deal. Don't mention it.

[tangledintower.livejournal.com]

[Doesn't matter, she's friendly to everybody, as evidenced by her bounding over with a biiig grin.]

Hi! Glad you could make it!

[tangledintower.livejournal.com]

You think so? I mean, I was worried that it was too much, or not enough, but people seem to be having fun, which is important!

Oh, wow, thank you! You didn't have to get me anything though...

[tangledintower.livejournal.com]

Yeeep!

[She squeaks at the pinch, but can't help but laugh as she gets spun around.]

Hahaha, I haven't heard that one before!

[tangledintower.livejournal.com]

It was still very nice of you, thank you so much, Neil.

[dulcisnuntius.livejournal.com]

Who wouldn't want a dorsal fin, if it was on offer?

[Dulcie is going to go right ahead and tuck into the food. It's a party after all! She mumbles around a mouthful of cupcake.]

So how does being 19 feel? D you feel more mature and wise already?

[Flynn stood at the party, a little off to the side. Rapunzel...had a lot of guy friends.]

[under his breath] What's with the sausage fest?

[tangledintower.livejournal.com]

[She doesn't seem to realize she has a lot of guy friends, okay? Don't blame her. She manages to sneak her way over right next to Eugene.]

You know, the party is more over that way...

[tangledintower.livejournal.com]

It feels a bit weird, to be honest...when I got here from home, it was my 18th birthday there. But time got things screwy up here...so I don't really know if I'm turning 18 or 19. I'm just rounding up.

[dulcisnuntius.livejournal.com]

Yeah, other people tell me that the whole City timeline makes it confusing.
