Happy Birthday! [open, multi]

Yuki smiled, hugging Lei back and giving him a squeeze. She twirled around in a circle, showing off her dress. "Thank you! I made it myself special, i just haven't had the courage to wear it!" She took the present back and went over to set it on the table with the others. The shark girl then strolled back to the group, holding her hand out and introducing herself to one of the taller boys.

"Hello! I'm Yuki, Lei's Steak Buddy. It's nice to meet you!" She smiled brightly, showing off her maw of sharp teeth. It was kind of eerie.

((Anyone who wants can respond to her~

All these people...... They all felt so outrageous and noisy and rowdy to Deith, and he was obviously not pleased. Although... he was trying hard not to look so gloomy either. Sid was his main problem, Sid was the most irritating person, and Sid just had to be the reason this party existed. Deith wasn't fit for this. Not now, not ever. Peeking into the normal environment of the young man he was dating wasn't a good idea. He'll never fit in, and if it weren't for Lei, he was never going to try.

But Deith had smiled at Lei and pretended that everything was fine. "Don't worry about me, enjoy the vibe while I take it in."

He didn't have to be all selfless about this though. Lei had enough friends to distract him, and maybe that was a good thing because he can't be right there in front of him while he was getting pissed at Sid. Standing there still near the gift table, Deith looked pretty calm and easy with one hand casually inside his pocket. He looked calm, even though Sid's stupid face was something worth shattering.

"About three months," he offered an answer along with a smile. Just so it wasn't so obvious how much he wanted to punch that drow in front of him. "I'm sure you already know that. You and Lei are really close, aren't you? He mentions you from time to time. Can't really help but get curious what kind of person you are."

No hint of anything negative in his voice, which was just how he wanted it. He did follow it with some softer words though, ones which sounded like they were worth nothing more than a whisper. "I do have an idea though, especially after seeing you in Fight Club one time."
@"Anzellous"

And then Deith looked around like he didn't mention anything and then tried to feel the atmosphere a little more. He was only here because Lei texted him to come over, but other than that in mind, there was nothing he could think of doing. He stepped aside when the shark girl who was apparently a "Steak buddy" (whatever that is) went to place her gift on the assigned table.

"Beautiful dress," he said, shooting the girl another one of his small smiles. She was quite cheerful-- actually everybody but Deith was cheerful-- but it was good that he can interact with someone else other than the stupid drow. It feels better, too. "Nice to meet you, too. Name's Deith. Heard that you made the dress yourself? Are you by any chance in the Fashion Club with Lei?"
@"King"

The male Lonely seems dizzy but otherwise fine, now observable damage occurred when it collided with the table. The female and Sad both close the distance to it, pausing every so often to glance warily at one of the party guests. They help the Male back up onto it's feet. He blinks a little bit, and then recovered the end of his tail from where it lay on the floor before noticing the cord-like bit of it is coiled around him. He holds the end of the tail out and begins stepping in a circle in a futile attempt to unravel it from himself.

The Sad makes tiny steps up to Sid and looks up at him, tilting it's head in a pondering expression. "Nyem?" The female waves it's arms at the male, trying to help, but also not wanting to tough the male and scare it off.

Suddenly they all perk up and run over to the cart, staring up at the chocolate fountain in awe, letting out a collective "Ooooooohhh." The three of them then begin many endeavors to reach the sweet ambrosia, most of consist of them trying to tower their way up before the bottom one loses balance and sends the other too bouncing off.

@"Poptart"

Clarence took Lei's yelling at him as affection, as well as the whole sabotaging his clothes with tears and snot thing. He had more jackets where that came from, as well as access to some very good cleaning services. Lei was going to have to do better than that to torment him, he was stubborn about this.

Clarence wasted no time in wrapping his arms around the girl as soon as he was given the chance, though. He held her close enough for his nose to be nestled in her hair, holding on almost too tightly. But, of course, he had to let her go again, as to not make things awkward. If all these people weren't here, he probably wouldn't have- the clinging would've gone on forever.

"Happy birthday, princess," he said, leaning down to Lei's ear, something a bit extra and appreciative in his voice, for more reasons than one.

@"A M E N O"

Then, he stepped back completely, and shrugged off his varsity jacket, tying it around his waist, just a white v-neck left. He turned his attention to Sid, in the middle of an eyeroll, just in time to... Be kissed? Shit, did anyone see that? Clarence's face burned a bit, just automatically, and he hissed curses in his head. He didn't think... no, nobody seemed to have seen that. He scrubbed at his face a little, making the warmth and redness go away out of pure willpower. God damn it. Clarence was pretty sure that for that split second, he'd leaned into it, too.

Fucking fuck. He quietly sent flustered, angry feelings Sid's way. How dare he both be so ridiculously not subtle in a danger zone. As well as a place where Clarence just... couldn't grab him and properly do these things.

"Thank you, I do, don't I? And I'll definitely remember to bring some next time," Clarence replied dryly.

@"Nightstripe"

Still, Sid didn't stay around long enough for Clarence to really start getting passive aggressive, instead going over to the... weird animals that had arrived, very clearly for the chocolate he'd brought. Their attempts to get at it were ridiculous, and Clarence groaned.

"Someone go ahead and feed the sad animals chocolate before they hurt themselves."
