[To say Rise was excited would be an understatement. Ecstatic was probably be a better choice of words. It had been a while since she had done something like this and it was her first one in

[She knocked on the door with the little bag that Pere had helped her pack for the night. Basil was in one arm and the gift for Rise was in the other. She didn't really know what to get Rise but Takuma had assured her that the gift would be fine.]

[Answering the door for Alice now. Looked like someone knew the definition of early.]

Alice! I'm so glad you were able to make it! Let me help you with your things. [Extending an arm to take her bag.] Come on in.

[madcuriosity]

A very merry birthday Miss Ree-say!

[notjust_risette]

Thanks again, Alice.

[Closing the door behind them.] Make yourself comfortable!

*With a wrapped present in hand, Atoli knocked on the door. Unfortunately the sandals she meant to buy for Rise was gone by the time she was there and she had to settle for flip flops. It ... might be too modest for Rise, but she thought the color suited her friend very well.

A-and nervously waiting for the door to open. :D;;*

[notjust_risette]

[Rise immediately came running to the door after hearing the knock.]

Hey Atoli-chan! You made it!

[atoli_in_sky]

Of course! I wouldn't miss Rise-san's sleepover. Oh and here, I hope you like it.

*she smiles, embarrassed, and hands the gift over.*

[notjust_risette]

[And taking the gift.] I'm sure, I will! Don't worry about it.

[Stepping aside to let her in.] Come on in.

[Her appearance was deceiving. While she would have no trouble blending in to a group of adolescent girls, acting like one was near impossible.

But she had accepted the invitation; no going back on her word.

Still, she had dressed the part she was to play, packed what was appropriate, and secured a gift: cookies she baked herself. They looked good enough, but she couldn't assure the taste, she was after all terrible in the kitchen.

ANYWAY, she had made her way over and now knocked on Rise's door. A variety of knowledge and experience was necessary to a well rounded warrior...this was just one of those experiences.]

[Unfortunately for Saber, Rise knew how to deal with girls like you. It'll be a learning experience for her, no doubt. Or a really, really strange night. Opening the door for you now!]

Welcome to the party, Saber-san!

[fated_blade]

[How unfortunate indeed.]

Thank you. And happy birthday, Miss Rise. I thank you again for the invitation.

[notjust_risette]

Thanks again. It's really no problem, though! I'm glad you were able to make it.

[For a sleepover, Shiki looks like she over packed. Not only does she have her overnight bag, she is also carrying a black garment bag that held the dress she promised Rise and another bag which has shoes that match. She puts the overnight bag down in order to knock on the door.

Gives off a little grunt when she bends over to pick up the bag and sling it over her shoulder once more.]

[notjust_risette]

[It was just Shiki and Minako who were missing from the party so Rise immediately assumed that it had been one of the two when she swung the door open. The first thing that she took notice of though was the amount of things Shiki carried along with her on the doorstep. The scene was rather amusing and she couldn't help but let out a laugh at her friend.]

It looks like you're going backpacking instead of a sleepover, Shiki.

[gimme_ur_pants]

[Blushes in embarrassment. It's just a good thing her boyfriend helped her carried everything before living her alone on Rise's doorstep.]

[In a lighthearted tone.] Hey! It's your present's fault!

[She gives the garment bag and the shoes to Rise after stepping inside the cottage.]

Happy Birthday, Rise~

[notjust_risette]

Oh, if it's just that then I guess I can take what I said back. [She's kidding too, of course.]

Whoa, you really finished it already?

[She takes the bag and steps aside to make room for Shiki to come in.] Come on in. I could probably show it off to the other girls later tonight.

[Minako was running late, because she couldn't decide on which accessories to get Rise. Finally, she decided on this clip that Rise could use anywhere, and this hat, which reminded Minako of something she'd've bought for herself back home.]

[knock knock knock]

[notjust_risette]

[It looks like the last guest has finally arrived. Rise heads over to the door to answer it.]

Minako-chan, You finally made it!

[cest_la_venus]

Sorry I'm late, I just couldn't decide on what to get you.

[notjust_risette]

Geez, you didn't have to worry about it that much. [Stepping aside now.] Come on in! Everyone's waiting for you.
