The Brightest Birthday [Open]

The Sensorium was transformed, the lights were lit and the trap was set. Billy stood in the center of a beautiful woodland clearing at dusk, waiting to surprise a certain special girl with a quiet and warm party for her birthday. Things were calm, beautifully lit, and (hopefully) just right for Ronnae.

Guests would come upon a circular layout to the clearing. One finely-cut circle in the center of the grass, separated from the rest of the area by entwined roots, served as the dance floor. Pathways wound out in several directions---to a secluded grove for talking in one direction, to the little round tables in another direction, to the vine-wrapped throne watching above all. Next to it was a small table for gifts, with one round box already placed there.

A crescent-shaped food table cupped the dining area, featuring simulations of foods of all sorts. Salads, meats, pasta, soups, hot potatoes---it was heavily based on Earth food, as that was what Billy knew best, but some dishes more familiar to the people of Azeroth would appear as well. If he did his research correctly, at least. He'd tried.

Standing just behind the table was a tiered strawberry cheesecake, red ribbons flowing throughout the creamy structure. It was surrounded by strawberries on all layers, and topped with a little decoration. Billy had argued with himself about whether it was appropriate or too sentimental for a little while, but there it was: a miniature big-headed version of Ronnae sitting on top of a flower, the little figure's toothy grin flashing at the crowd. He hoped she wasn't offended.

Now that the scene was set and the skylights were giving the place a gentle glow, he braced himself for the arrivals. He still wasn't sure if she would like the attention, but he hoped she could find a reason to smile tonight.
((Now open! Subthreads are up for early arrivals, the escorting, and gifts, and everything else can be social threads y'all start. Throw up more subthreads if you'd like to and have fun!))

At the realization of her misunderstanding, her face grew visibly very red.

"O-oh! Ah s-sorry, hah, must have, y-yeah umm." Whoops! She was feeling rather embarrassed, but still smiled on like a trooper!

"I didn't really think about anything, no. But some games would be fun. I don't know if anyone would want to today though, since it's been a long one... But I've been wanting to do something fun in the sensoriums for a while now. Maybe capture the flag or fortress defense."

Of course, she had VERY different ways of how to play those games, considering that they were war games from her world...

"Aye, you've a point there." He's not even thinking that the games might be that much different for someone from her world. After all, he'll not argue that it's been a long day for just about everyone. And maybe something like capture the flag would be better done on a day where it can be planned out a bit more thoroughly.

"Well, why not set something up? Maybe ye could see if anyone else on the crew'd be interested in giving it a go, as well."

"You know, that's a great idea Jamie! Maybe I can put up something on the comms. See how many are interested and maybe we can get some games happening!"

And then crew members 'killed' each other in Warsong Gulch.

The thought of re-enacting the battle of the Gulch, or the Resource war of the Basin where enough to bring a big smile to Ronnae's face.

That is exactly what Jamie wanted to see - his friend happy. He gives her a smile back. "Good, that's settled, then. Look, when ye do want to do it, let me know? If I've got the free time, I'd not mind giving it a go."

He may regret that once he realizes what games she has in mind - but for now, it seems like a fine idea. As does some food, if the faint rumbling of his stomach is anything to go by.

"Er...maybe we can get something to eat for now, instead."

(OOC: want to wrap it up here, or was there anything you'd like to do?)

Ronnie smiled and nodded cheerily,

"That sounds like a great idea J-Jamie! And of course I'll let ya know whenever I want to try it out, after all I'm really happy you suggested it!"

With that, she gave him a pleasant hug and motioned towards the food, happy to be sharing a moment with a great friend.

(OOC: This is fine! Thanks for the awesome fun~ <3)
