DECEMBER 2ND, birthday armageddon action mingle

[parodeity]

So, anyone in the entertainment room area come December 2nd will be subjected to a ridiculous clash of colors and decorations. While the only advertisement was word-of-mouth, it's a six-way birthday party although none of the guests of honor seem to care if people actually celebrate their birthdays; it's possible to just come by for cake and/or random hangouts. The room seems to be divvied up into six pie slices with decorations, with a table in the middle with six cakes. The slices are kind of variable but easy enough to match up to their respective "owner": Jade's is neon green paired with white decoration-wise and seems to mostly be dog themed, although there's also more glitter in her slice than anywhere else; Jake's is less neon green paired with black and the collective Dave-and-Rose decoration committee apparently decided skulls was as good a theme as anything; Dave's is red and black and records although also just really dumb sbahj drawings which tbh have infected the other slices aside from Rose's; Dirk's is orange-and-white and robots; Rose's is purple-and-black and wizards and octopi; Roxy's is pink-and-white and cats and wizards. None of the decorations really seem intended to mesh with any other slices' decorations at all?

The cakes are equally mismatched, although some of them work together. Jade got a Bec-head shaped cake; Jake got another...skull...THEY TRIED, OKAY JAKE; Dave elected himself for hella jeff; Dirk got assigned sweet bro because Rose couldn't convince Dave to Not; Rose herself got a very disturbing octopus tentacle thing, what the fuck Rose; and Roxy got a cat.

There are like six pinatas in various colors and some party games and a movie marathon that seems to have literally no theme beyond being chosen by Dave and Rose and therefore the theme might actually be "what movie will annoy my sibling most" back and forth. So there's. Just a super variety of stuff there. And there's music which Dave seems to have been in control of, although most of it is lowkey so that's nice???

Sorry if you wanted to do something in this room related to not this hot mess today, BUT AT LEAST THEY'RE NOT DOING SIX SEPARATE PARTIES??? Also there are party hats in the colors of each slice (with a dumb paper crown in slice colors for each birthday kid) so pick your poison. There's a generic and very messy "HAPPY 17TH BIRTHDAY" banner so apparently it's just. 6 17s? Nice.

[ karkat's gift to rose is left on her table in a small box. whenever rose opens it, the first thing she will probably see is a charm bracelet. on closer inspection, she will see those charms are actually tiny preserved tentacles. karkat actually went and collected them himself so they are definitely real.

unlike all the other gifts karkat has left for the birthday kids, this one actually comes with a note that's tucked underneath the bracelet.

LALONDE,
HAPPY WRIGGLING DAY, I GUESS.
BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY I JUST WANTED TO SAY THANKS FOR ALWAYS BEING AROUND TO HELP CLEAN UP MY MESSES.
I KNOW YOU'RE DOING IT FOR DAVE'S SAKE AND NOT MY OWN BUT I STILL APPRECIATE IT NONETHELESS.
YOU CAN BE REALLY FUCKING WEIRD BUT I ACTUALLY DO CONSIDER YOU A FRIEND EVEN IF I'M SHIT AT ACTING LIKE IT.
BURN THIS IMMEDIATELY IN ANY OF THE VARIOUS CAKE CANDLES AT THIS PARTY I DO NOT WANT ANYONE EXCEPT YOU READING THIS.

when karkat actually approaches rose in person it is during the movie commentary just because he figures it'll be hilarious and he is not disappointed. ]

Sometimes I can't tell if you came prepared with a script or if all of this really just flows naturally from your think pan.
