Open
Who: William Twining/notsolomon & you
When: OOC 3/13, IC: 6/6
Where: His and Kevin's apartment/the shopping district
What: For people who either want to celebrate his birthday or touch base with him after the last event. Or whatever your heart desires.
Rating/Warning: None
I: Apartment
[So today was his birthday. William had been so preoccupied that he had forgotten about the date until Kevin had reminded him. When he woke up that morning, William found that his feelings about the day were rather complicated. Especially since his last birthday had seen a complete upheaval in one of the very foundation stones of his life.
That had been when he'd learned that Kevin wasn't who he had appeared to be. That Kevin wasn't the Kevin he'd known since childhood, but someone who had taken the original's place, like a cuckoo bird invading a nest. And there had been countless other deceptions tied into that, Kevin's being an Angel among them.
It had all worked out in the end and for the better, as their relationship was now much stronger. But the date was firmly etched into his mind, more bittersweet than something to celebrate.
Of course, William wasn't one to let himself dwell on such things and he quickly gained his bearings and decided to get prepared for the day. He couldn't go to London this year, but William was going to enjoy the day and all it brought with it, regardless of any negative associations.
Throughout the day he texts different friends, inviting them over for cake and snacks, because there's only so much he can eat on his own.]
II. Shopping District
[He's saved enough money that he can treat himself, so William's been hitting different stores all day. He's mainly thinking of buying some books and a few video games, though mostly he's been window shopping here and there.
Despite having been in the city for a while, William still finds a bit of modern technology or some alien merchandise that surprises him. And he's staring at one particular thing now, whatever it is, one eyebrow raised.]
Whatever it is, they shouldn't advertise it with such an absurd slogan.
III Wildcard
[If you have your own idea for a prompt, type it up by all means!]

But if a person knew how to do it, imagine what they could do.
[It was a bit staggering to think about.]
Not that I am inclined to actually do such a thing though. I am already fairly perfect as is.
[Except for athletic ability.]
no subject
What, you don't wanna be taller? More built? Never think about that stuff?
[He's still got the more important stuff in the back of his mind, but now he's kinda curious about this.]
no subject
[That is a lie. Mostly.]
Besides, I think I have one more growth spurt in me. I suspect this place has just delayed it.
[Watch out, he gonna be taller than you one day Leon. Real tall, not shoe tall.]
no subject
's that how it works? Ha ha, we'll see! I mean, I guess if we're code, it makes sense we're not gonna get any "older" or anything.
no subject
I do not know whether or not that is a depressing thought. Though I suppose this isn't the worst age to be stuck at.
[That would suck for some of the young ones though.]
no subject
[Ugh. Now isn't the time to get stuck thinking about his own situation, again. He hadn't thought to ask Mosley whether dead people can grow up.
But it's not like William doesn't have a point, so he brushes off the awkwardness and soldiers on.]
We're young, we're hot, right? At least we're not like ten. Or fifty. We got it pretty good!
no subject
[Then again, Solomon had lived a long time and never lost his youthful good looks. Maybe William had inherited that quality? It would be one of the more useful things passed down to him.]
But yes, we should enjoy this opportunity. For all we know, they made us immortal. Or mostly.
no subject
[He wants to. He wants to say it, so badly. But he doesn't want it to be now, on William's friggin' birthday, of all times!
He looks down at his cake, fiddling with the fork.]
—Look, there's some stuff I wouldn't mind tellin' you about, but not today! It's not birthday material! Y'know?
no subject
[He's finished his own plate and considers him. Leon's been acting shifty on and off and it's tempting to press him now that he's said that.
but well no.]
I understand. But if you want to tell me, then tell me when you are ready. Though, this wouldn't be the first birthday of mine that was ruined by bad news.
[Really you have no idea Leon.]
But I won't force you either. I did mean for today to be fun others and not just myself.
no subject
[What do you even call news of a death anyway, when the corpse in question is the one delivering it, standing right in front of you, healthy and happy?
Sometimes that last one is debatable, but he's gotten better.
He lifts up his hands, waving them, no no no!]
It's fiiiine! It's not like pressing or anything, it totally doesn't even affect you! You won't even care, ha ha! Soooo later!
no subject
Another day then Leon. [Another day where he will drag it out of you. Because now he's cross. For a moment.]
Though you know, you know a secret of mine, one I didn't even know myself. Just to put that out there.
no subject
[That's also a moodkiller, seriously. He gives William a Look, though he's more guilty and a bit worried than accusatory.]
It's not that I don't wanna tell you. The whole point is I do! It's just weird to suddenly bring up on a day like this! I'm not gonna hide it, promise.
no subject
[Okay that is probably not reassuring. At all. When will he learn these vaunted "people skills?"]
But I will not needle you on it further. Promise.
