Those Meddling Bastards (Open RP, Great Hall)

Jul 25, 2010 10:47

((OOC: Backdated to the 22nd. Happy Birthday, Bad Fox! :D ))For all his efforts to the contrary, the school's congregation of House Elves had, once again, managed to trap him in the Great Hall with cake, party favors, and a stupid little party hat that one Elf kept trying to hang festively on one of his ears. He was amazed at his own restraint thus ( Read more... )

"Birthday thing, is it?" I ask as one of the house elves push me into the room. For 'servants,' they sure are pushy. I glance at the cake. "Looks like they did one per decade, though, old man."

"I hate cake," Kurama snarled, more at the elf (who laughed at him) than at Mello. He crossed his arms in a huff and slumped back against the table. "And right now I hate everything else. These little fucking sadists never do this to anyone but me."

"You know, I think I have a very stylish jacket that'd fit you. I can get it for you," I offer sweetly. "The 'candy' that goes with it is a little harder to come by, but I'm sure we can get you some of that, too."

"Go to the cold core of Hell, Mello," he grumbled, slumping further. "And you know the only way something of yours would fit me is if it's made entirely of leather shoelaces."

Curiosity was natural to a thief, part and parcel to their trade. Curiosity brought Jing in, avoiding the house elves, giving him a chance to take in the ambiance. "Do you use a horn to blow out the candles?" he asked, amusement very obvious in his voice.

"I bribe Karasu to bomb the damn thing," he muttered, avoiding Jing's eyes. "Go ahead and laugh."

Jing looked at the cake and then back at Kurama. "It would make a mess and I don't think the candles would go out," he mused. He moved to sit near Kurama. "I also didn't think you liked him," he added, looking at his shoes. He turned his head to look at Kurama. "You should play with friends," he said, grinning. "That makes a good birthday."

Kurama's ears twitched. He grabbed on to the subject change, glancing sideways at Jing, his expression still set in an irritated snarl, but his eyes full of laughter. "It seems my friends are having enough fun playing with each other," he said, one eyebrow raising.

Aigis blinked as she was shoved into the Great Hall to celebrate. "But I don't even eat!" she protested, to no avail. She tried shooting a house elf, but it vanished before she could.

"This is unfair. And imprisonment."

"You're telling me," Kurama grumbled from his slump at the table. A pair of overenthusiastic elves were trying to wrap him up in birthday streamers. At this point, he was too morose to try and avoid the rainbow paper.

Aigis pointed a gun at the elves. "Scram."

They complied, but kept Kurama under the streamers. Aigis began to undo them.

Kurama's ears twitch agitatedly and he proceeded to shake streamers off his arms. "This is bloody ridiculous. Thanks, by the way."

Kuronue tried not to laugh. Really.

Not very hard though.

He collapsed against the table and seated himself, holding his stomach. "Hey, birthday boy," he greeted, amused at the amount of candles. "Is it one candle for each year?"

"Didn't bother to count," he growled back.

Kuronue cast a glance around the hall. "I don't think numbers go up that high anyway," he teased, leaning away slightly at the same time.

Kurama mimed a punch, going in for the kill with an actual kick to Kuronue's shin. Smug prick.

Vincent, for one, liked the atmosphere.

He'd come to appreciate the mood of things here. As he moved towards Kurama, the elves mostly kept out of his way, which amused him. One did seem to hang onto his cape though. He let it trail along after him, then stared at it when it stood by his side once he had taken a seat beside Kurama.

It asked him if he would like cake. Tilting his head, he said yes then turned to Kurama.

"Hello again," he greeted, pushing at the nearest floating candle with the tip of his claw, sending it careening towards the cake. As if driven by gravity, it took up place on on of the tiers of the cake.

Red eyes turned to Kurama.

Kurama would have challenged Vincent for being so apparently amused by this, but seeing the gunslinger with any expression but a morose glare was so surprising that he was caught off guard.

"And well met, it seems," he said, watching the elf totter back with a slice of cake that could have fed a party of five.

While Vincent suffered for his sins, he still allowed himself little amusements.

"Indeed," he said, leaning back and nodding at the elf when it placed the plate before him. He picked up the fork that came on the plate with his unclawed hand, and picked at the cake. "You don't like it," he said, the question seeming more like a statement than a question.

"I don't like being fussed over," he murmured. "Not like this, anyway. And I don't have much of a sweet tooth." He scowled at an elf who was offering him a fork. The staring contest went on for a few moments, then the frustrated elf stabbed the fork into the table and stalked off.

Kurama sighed, yanked the fork out, and took a very small bite of Vincent's piece. "It could be worse. Last year was fireworks."
