Happy Birthday Victor! (Yes, Just Victor)

Yes, today is all about the birthday of the newest member of the Inkwell group -- Forgotten Vows! Why are we neglecting Marty McFly, DG-Victor, and Butterfly Boy?

Largely because everyone realized we were up to FOUR people with the same birthday (SIX if you count Tie-Twister and Secundus Marty), and everyone said, "Oh HELL no." It's just too much trouble at this point to keep track of everyone. So, to simplify things, the party is being focused on the guy who has yet to get one.

So! The Inkwell is not only done up in Corpse Bride-flavor blue, but "Alice"-flavor red as well today. The jukebox is playing bits from the "Alice" soundtrack -- primarily anything that strongly features piano, with a few other pieces Forgotten likes as well. And sprinkled liberally around on the unoccupied tables is butterfly confetti, as that applies to both series equally. Forgotten himself is at the traditional birthday table, looking a little shy, but happy to be so loved. Won't you come by and make sure to welcome him to the family properly?

Doc steps up first with his present -- a small box wrapped in yellow paper. "Happy birthday," he says. "I think you'll like this."

Doc laughs. "It's a night-vision crystal! I got one like it from a vending machine the LiveJournal Nexus sometimes had around. We still sometimes raid it for gifts here. I figured, since your main issue with the dark is that you can't see in it. . ."

"You're welcome! Happy birthday!" Doc reiterates, clapping him on the shoulder.

Marty goes next, with a somewhat bigger box wrapped in bright blue. "I bet you'll like this -- I got the inspiration from 'Finding You,'" he says with a smile.

"You're welcome! I saw that, and I figured, 'well, we can definitely afford to get him some paint' -- and I'm not any good at drawing," he adds with a smirk. "Music only for me."

"Not getting into that," Marty says, holding up his hands. "We'll be here all day, and I know you and Butterfly Boy are gonna have stuff cooking on tumblr too. Trust me, if you still feel guilty, you can always make it up to us at Christmas. Today's your day, though."

"Worry about that in December, buddy."

DG-Victor is up next, and he's carrying -- a sack, it looks like. "Happy birthday!" he says, holding it out to Forgotten. "I got this from the vending machine too."
deadgirlslikeme: (gotta laugh)

[personal profile] deadgirlslikeme 2013-06-09 05:11 pm (UTC)(link)
DG-Victor chuckles. "It's a Bag of Holding. Essentially, I believe it can hold up to -- what was it -- 200 pounds of anything that can fit through the opening, while never weighing more than 15. Think of it as your own interdimensional pocket! Well, one that isn't specifically for your Wonderland weapons," he amends.

"You're welcome! And I will -- you'll probably want to know for Christmas," he chuckles.

Alice steps up, with another small box wrapped in red. "Mine's similar to DG's," she says, with a loving glance at her boyfriend. "It's from the vending machine, and it's something that mimics a Wonderland ability."
save_us_alice: (floating on the wings of steam)

"Close enough to," Alice says. "It's a Featherfall charm. As long as you're wearing it, it allows you to drift safely to the ground from any fall higher than five feet."
save_us_alice: (a killer's grin)

[personal profile] save_us_alice 2013-06-09 05:20 pm (UTC)(link)
"You're very welcome," Alice says with a polite curtsey. "Happy birthday."
butterflyboy: (anxiety is my best friend)

Butterfly Boy is up next, and he wheels in his gift -- something covered with a sheet that appears to be balanced on a stick like a gigantic lolly. "I didn't know what to get you at all for the longest time," he confesses, looking embarrassed. "But then, just last night, inspiration struck. I really do think you'll like it, but in case you don't I'm willing to take suggestions--"
