Thank you for coming! Please, enjoy yourself by all means! Remember to say, "Happy Birthday," to Hiro too please.

[ This is the greeting given by the birthday girl. Ai's face is aglow with cheerfulness that couldn't be beat as she welcomes guests inside the Sanctuary where some nice music is playing. It's the most convenient place to set up a small party after all and there's even a few things to do for fun if one isn't sticking around just for congratulatory birthday greetings:

A) FOOD

Where there is Ai Thao, there is food. Lots of it. Starring a peach birthday cake made by the Man, the Legend, Chef Archer. Aside from those, there are some Vietnamese spring rolls, roasted meat, some healthy salads, and colorful cookies and drinks! (Hey, did someone bring hard cider to this party...???)

Ai might even collect your plates and clean up after you isn't she nice? Oh, that's not Ai, it's a robot who's taken on the same skin tone as her owner... Creepy. Ah well, at least it's being helpful although it might say every once and a while, "Thank you for coming to my birthday party!"

B) Piñatas

How cute, there's a few of these cute piñatas hanging around in the ceiling. When you try to bat one down for the sweet candy innards though, they are just out of your reach. Ai Thao (real one, not the similar looking skin robot) giggles because she's passing by you. Ah, she's the culprit. Those guys can't move on their own after all.

"Sorry, sorry! I couldn't help it."

Oh, so that's all... Actually hey wait, some of those piñatas ARE trying to run away?! Try to catch one, but these little bastards are pretty fast for cardboard full of candy.

C) KARAOKE

There is a TV screen, mics, a karaoke box and an endless selection of pop music in all languages. All of them. Try to belt out those tunes, serenade your loved one, get the highest score, no one's going home a winner anyways.

(Ai's robot is sitting at the machine and taking the mic, humming in a voice that sounds too similar for comfort...)

D) Late Evening

Let's settle down. Maybe chat and catch up with other people. It's a good a time as any right? The lights are low, the cake's been served, there's hot tea (and booze still???) and there's a lovely lamp projecting stars onto the walls. What a nice mood!

(It might make your robots, should they come to the party look rather eerie though, especially since they developed that layer of skin.)

[ OOC: Robots are free to be at the party and tagging each other is encouraged! ]

[adminproof]

This gathering is to celebrate your birth as well. I should be the one saying that to you.

[ He's honestly not sure how to react to hugs...he never received any. Never felt the warmth of another against his own body (although he would've liked to). It's a pleasant feeling, and he reaches over with...an arm? To tentatively hug back...somewhat. It's still Awkward with a capital A for him, but at least he's trying. ]

I would advise you do that sooner than later. The majority of people here at this gathering are her friends...friends who will, more likely than not, hear of or witness her anguish in this enclosed space.

[ Friends who may or may not line up outside the door and around the block to give whoever made Ai cry a piece of their mind. ]

[theshiningone]

Oh, oh... Um, I really did a lot of yelling, huh?

[That's when Hiro starts to sweat a lot of bullets. Suddenly, he wishes that CERES was throwing up some hell right now to distract everyone from that big scene he's made. Could he just keep his head low for a while until this blows over? Ah, man... He had to clean everything up until more people learned about what happened.

On the other hand...]

So, um... Question! Can an Administrator become invisible for like a week or two? I'm still getting the hang of my powers and would reaaaally like to avoid a few lynch mobs if I can help it.

[adminproof]

Mm...due to your lack of access to the Astrolabe here, I'm afraid not. And I cannot help you in this endeavor either, as even I cannot stand up to the might of a tightly-knit group of friends. Surely you of all people know how powerful their wrath can be.

[ Hiro can't say he wouldn't jump to the opportunity to whiteknight say, Daichi or Io, after all.

He...could bring Hiro to his own apartment (that he has for some reason despite not needing one), but then Hiro wouldn't learn his lesson, and Saiduq's not here to coddle anyone. Teach, yes. Coddle, no. ]

I believe the phrase is "you reap what you sow".

[theshiningone]

That's... harsh. It's horribly accurate to this situation, but kinda harsh.

[Not even Hiro could argue with that. So he had to mentally keep in mind who was at this party and try to avoid them or disguise himself around. It'd be like dodging all of those homicidal people back home.

It's hard to say if Hiro is looking incredible sarcastic or super dead inside. But he's starting to talk decisively like this is some major JPs operation.]

Okay, so. If I can't go invisible, I'm gonna have to make myself horribly scarce from the network and public view for a while. If I get into an encounter, I'll just run without any questions ask or put on a clever disguise. [He didn't mind being a coward for something like this... Anything to mark his survival rate a little higher.]

Alright! I'm here. I'm psyched. I'm pumped. I'm ready to take on anything and everything. [He will be pulling back to clap his hands together.] AWWWWWWW YEAAAAAH! LET'S SURVIVE!

[He sounds completely monotone as if he's already walking to the gallows.]
