forgotten_vows: picture of Victor looking shy with the text "shy boy" (Victor is the shiest)

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."

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.

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."

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."

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--"

Shortly after Butterfly Boy gives his present, the three main Secundusians come in to say hello. Secundus Alice gives Butterfly Boy a hug, then notices the dummy. "Uh --"

"His," Butterfly Boy explains, pointing to Forgotten Vows. "It's so he can mangle it."

"Oh! I guess I got you the perfect present then," she comments, turning to look at Forgotten. She holds out a small gift in brass-colored paper. "Happy Birthday."

The muses and mun tromp in last, as is their wont. The boys wave to everyone before making their way over to the birthday boy. "Happy birthday, Forgotten!" Tie-Twister proclaims, handing over a large, misshapen package of stuff. "We hope you'll find all of this useful."

AL and the guys walk in only fashionably late. AL is clinging to Eleven's arm, Clark and Radu are carrying cakes whilst Data is carrying a display piece: a replica of the Ball & Socket complete with gum paste figures (you may choose who/whom).

"Hi, folks," says AL, not letting go of Eleven.

He gazes down at her and pats her head. "My actor is leaving the show 'round Christmas," he explains before anyone can ask. "She hasn't let me out of her sight since the season finale."

"She did the same when my actor left," adds Ten. "She'll get over it."

AL pulls a face and adjusts her position so she's just holding Eleven's hand. She then says, "Happy birthday Victors and Martys." Pointing at the showpiece, she adds, "Forgotten Vows wasn't around when we used to bring the sculpted cakes from Duff (I'm sure someone else wasn't either, but this is FV-centric party, so...), so we figured we'd bring one for him. Though since you're all too reluctant to eat something so pretty, it's just a display. That's what the sheet cakes are for. I'm not 100% sure if you're as into chocolate as your other selves (since the alter ego is at work and can't look it up), but I figured at least one of them had to be chocolate. Well, it's brownie, so close enough. The other is marble - you know, chocolate and vanilla swirled together. As for your present..." She rummages around in hammerspace for a moment and produces three (this is the one I showed you) pictures (who knew there were more than one).

"Those are the 'Butterfly Nebulas'," says Ten, grinning. "For your present, we offer you and your other selves the opportuity to take a trip in the TARDIS to see them up close."

"Or just one of them. Or all three. Or just two," says Eleven. He's smiling, too. "Whatever you want."

"Just stop by," AL finishes. "The other Victors can show you how they get to my planet from here. That is, if you're interested. If not, I'm sure we can figure out something else."
