When; May 20, in the afternoon
Rating; G?
Characters; Penny (horrible_penny) and all of her friends! So if you're her friend, then this means you!
Summary; It wouldn't be a proper birthday without a proper party! Rosella and friends are therefore throwing one for Penny by the lake in Xanadu.
Log;
According to Penny, this birthday is the one that officially marks her as a spinster; as a direct result, Rosella has decided that it is her solemn duty to ensure this party makes Penny feel just the opposite. As requested, it's not a particularly large or formal sort of affair. There are a few tables set up and covered in light tablecloths, ready to hold plates of sliced fruit, cupcakes, cookies, and a bowl of punch; there are also some blankets spread on the ground to accommodate anyone that wants to sit on something other than the grass. A short distance away lies the edge of the lake, and the sound of the ducks swimming and quacking near the shore is unmistakable. But, of course, it only seems fitting that a birthday for Penny would somehow involve ducks, wouldn't it?
All in all, the whole thing has an "afternoon picnic" sort of feel to it. Penny's friend Curt has promised to provide some music with his guitar, which adds to the lighthearted atmosphere of the occasion, and thus far, everything is looking perfect. Rosella would certainly know; she's checked things over at least four times now, just to make sure that everything's set exactly as it should be.
The only thing left to manage, then, is the cake. That's important enough to warrant a table all its own, and she takes extra pains to make sure it looks perfect, too. She also makes it a point to remove the note she'd stuck to the box earlier that morning--Please take note that this is Penny's birthday cake, and while I am sure she'd forgive anyone who ruined it before she even had a chance to look at it, much less taste it, that really speaks more to Penny's capacity to forgive and not to the severity of the offense--and crumples it in her hand before stuffing it into one of her skirt pockets.
There. Everything is set and ready; all that remains is to sit back, enjoy the company, and await Penny's arrival.
[OOC: It's Penny's birthday! Set up threads, threadjack each other, congratulate the birthday girl once she gets here, engage in passive-aggressive note-leaving shenanigans...have a ball!]
