SO IT FELT LIKE WE NEEDED SOME CRACK IN HERE. mingle post!

[was_no_monster]

[those of you who have been in the dressing room for a while might remember that one of the Kaitos seems to have a different birthday from the rest of them, and that his celebrations tend to involve lots of free ice-cream in the park.

this year is no exception; a few folding tables have been set up and covered with little tubs of hand-made ice-cream in varying flavors. however, one thing has changed; the birthday boy himself is puttering around instead of hiding from any who might approach. currently he's managing another new addition: a large tower of cupcakes. which is currently threatening to slide out of his grasp and to the ground instead of onto the table where he wants them.

...maybe he could use a hand...]

((OOC: mingle post! also, those aren't just any cupcakes... feel free to come up with additional effects they could have, or skip the RNG if a particular one looks fun to play out!))

ohohoho, i remember that. (Also slowtags and poortags because sick)

[mrlivingskull]

[Yep, I sure do remember. Remember them cuppy-cakes, too, because it was quite an occasion for me as well. One of my girl's most memorable stories, don'tcha know.]

(( For Kaito ))

[A little bit of psychic steadying, just a little application of something that resembles the Force... that tower of babelcakes almost wants to stay steady for you now, Kaibro. No further hassle will it give you.]

(( For Others ))

[And here now, looks like a buncha the cuppycakes are scattered all around. Whole town's probably crusted with them. And, as one might predict, he's highly tempted to snatch up one (or possibly more). No different than your standard stunt on Bakerstreet, yet the Saulfish chomps on the bait every time. i mean why not]

[Oh cupcakes! Those look so attractive with various toppings and colors. Violet would to try that before trying out the ice cream. He chooses purple colored cupcake and tastes it.

And the next thing, everything goes bright and colorful around him. He sees multiple rainbows, raining candy, and sweets. Plus sparkly flower and playgrounds, which is nothing could compare to his happiness.

What is worry and depress? He will never know.]

Violet! {A small, barely recognizable voice calls out to the robot as it's owner approaches. It's Requiem. But he is small, and shockingly...human. The only thing that has remained the same are his clothing(though they shrank to fit) and his manner of speaking; and of course, his memory.

Once he has arrived next to his now considerably taller boyfriend, however, his face falls.}

Ah, don't tell me...you've already eaten one? I was afraid of that.

[voicelessguitar]

Requiem-kun?

Requiem-kun~~~~

[Violet gleefully picks up his small boyfriend and twirls around like today is the best day ever.]

You look so small and so cute~ Your body is light too! I can't express how happy I am~ Everything looks wonderful!

[rollagain]

[ from behind him ] Need help?

OH MY GOD /HYPERVENTILATES JOYOUSLY?!

[was_no_monster]

[JUMPS and just barely manages not to drop them all over everything]

...rrr. I think so, much as I hate to admit it...

hehehehe HIIIIIIII : D

[rollagain]

Okay. Hold on. [ she moves to stand in front of him, and then reaches up on her tiptoes, removing as many cupcakes as she can from the top of the tower without having to struggle to balance them. ]

[defender]

[...staring at the cupcakes appraisingly]

[was_no_monster]

[fffinally managing to ease them onto the table without any casualties. collapsing gracelessly onto a nearby bench with a relieved sigh]

—ah, Miku. ...Did you want one?

[defender]

[frowning, a little apprehensive almost]

Did you make these yourself?

5, because I'm terrible

[howtheworldwillend]

[nibbling genteelly at a purple cupcake, looking... rather smug, for some reason]

still 8

[defender]

[casually walking out from underneath the tablecloth. yes, she's that tiny]

[howtheworldwillend]

[...pausing a beat]

Oh, dear. Dare I ask?

at some point after mayhem

[miraculost]

[this Len has been absent for most of the party. that's more than a little odd - it's not like him to not be around on his son's birthday...

but here he is now, walking quickly up to the tables and what remains of their ice-creamy cupcakey bounty, a misshaped cloth-wrapped bundle clutched in his arms]

Kaito! I'm sorry I'm late...

[was_no_monster]

[draped stomach-down over a picnic bench, looking mildly exhausted]

Don't be, papa. That... didn't precisely go as planned.

[miraculost]

Oh, dear. What happened?

[inshepherdscloth]

[I'M JUST HERE FOR ICE CREAM IT'S NOT LIKE I LIKE YOU OR ANYTHING!!!]

[was_no_monster]

[it's ok I like you enough to make up for that. GRINNING IN HIS GENERAL DIRECTION a-and then yelping as he nearly drops the cupcake platter]

[thisfoolishfather]

[Oh that's right, this is a thing isn't it. Geez, he's been here over a year?

As much as he wants to walk right by, colorful cupcakes are pretty eye-catching so he takes a moment to just...look.

And be prepared to dart over should those cupcakes actually fall.]

[was_no_monster]

[...well, he's got the bottom platter, but the second layer seems to be slipping...!]

[poisonedblood]

Would you like some help?

[Demetria is young and frail, but she'd still like to try and can at least help him balance some cupcakes. They're not that heavy, right? She'd been attracted by the sounds and the sights, curious and wanting to meet other people--she'd been isolated for so long, after all.]

[was_no_monster]

Ah— just with counterbalancing it, if you can manage. I wasn't expecting this to be so large...

placeholdery! replies at the time of writing will probably be slow as durr

[altereaped]

((Also kind of assuming there are some cupcakes just lying around the place like last time))


[...Cupcakes? That's odd. Granted, far from the weirdest thing this place has ever done, but...]

[Should he take one? Common sense and rationality say no, and Len makes a habit of listening to them. But they are very, very enticing...and the mere sight of one causes a sudden craving to flare up in him. His sweet tooth's beckoning.]

[They look so good...]

same warnin's as Len

[doubleringuns]

[...Huh. Cupcakes.]

[...]

[looks around.]




[looks around some more.]



[GETS READY TO GRAB ONE AND STUFF IT IN HER MOUTH]

—wait, don't—
