Happy Birthday Mitsuru

Who: WHOEVER WANTS TO COME YES EVEN YOU
Where: The clubhouse
What: Child soldiers for an occult corporation try and throw a perfectly normal birthday party for a billionaire heiress.

"But Suze!" You may say! "I didn't get an invite/I don't have CR with anyone involved!!!"

So what, just say you got a dubious invite over OKCindr. Maybe it's a ransom letter. Maybe it's a promise for "fun ;) ". Just pretend the spambot got you here in the funniest manner possible. EVERYONE IS WELCOME.

Warnings: im really hoping we don't have to put anything in this section y'all better behave for the birthday girl or she's gonna have to punish you.





The clubhouse sure is decorated! It's a mishmash of ideas- scattered balloons strewn across the floor, a few streamers here and there. Someone found some extremely tacky fake-gold plastic plates. It very much has the feeling of people who were sort of trying, but also sort of thinking it's funny not to actually look nice. After all, the theme is normal-chic.

There's a stack of party hats near the door, for anyone who wants to be extra festive. If you brought presents, you can dump them there, too! And maybe take one of those dumbass party horns that one of our "normal person" advisors told us we needed.

Hell yeah there's food.

What is a birthday party without food! And hey, there's very little that actually needs utensils here. Someone suggested cheeseburgers, so there's a little station to put together your own: pick your own toppings! There's a few scattered sets of tongs, but if you don't find one, just reach in and pluck that tomato slice with your bare-ass hands. We're all friends here.

Not your cup of tea? Vegetarian?? Don't worry there's some roast vegetable kabobs going on nearby on a tray.

There's an assortment of other grab-and-go foods-- slices of scallion pancakes laid out, sliced fruits with berries. Tiny little... Quiche looking things?? Beef satay? Cheesey puffs, chips, popcorn with way too much butter?? Sure, go for it.

Oh, and some hardshell tacos . Clearly someone had the goal of 'messiest food possible'.

One of the people throwing this party is a bartender

Underage drinking ahoy! yeah, there's some booze. The most prominent beverage is a cheap looking canned beer: filler lite which professes to be the Champagne of it's kind. There was a limited budget okay?? The Casino thing is still a work in progress. But surely you can find some sake or some cooking wine (don't drink that I am begging you) or convince Kotone to mix something up for you. Other than that, we're in clubhouse and cooking club resides here, so you're easily able to find a kettle and a coffee machine or just drink water and stay hydrated.

is there cake???

Hell yeah there is. Please take some. Maybe there's ice cream in the freezer, too.

Cool but what is there to do?

That's a good question!! Obviously the fancy lady needs something extremely silly and messy to let loose and have fun with so there is a piñata dangling ominously from the ceiling, a wooden stick leaned against the wall nearby

....along with a backup pinata because look we anticipate super powered kids here. Everyone needs to take a swing.

There's a couple random activities laid out by people who clearly don't know how to throw a party (assisted by Kotone and Scott, who are trying their best to show them how.) A deck of cards? Sure. Dartboard? Great, don't stab anyone. They even borrowed the SNES and TV from Mikey's place because he's off having his villain arc. (And by 'borrowed' I might mean stole, but you know Shinji's gonna put it back after.) play some Road Brawler 2 Super or some Super Giacomo World.

Akihiko might start a party jog and/or some kind of workout competition and that's gonna be a fucking disaster if people are going hard on the cheap beer but you know, I'm not your boss. Live your life however you want.

I'm in, how do I approach this!

It's an open mingle, fam. Do what you want. Make assumptions, cause trouble, set something on fire with candles. Just don't wreck the place any more than Scott did when he destroyed it.

Wait what does the clubhouse look like???



I am giving you all the information I have here promise

[ She's definitely overthinking things. Then again, it's not entirely unexpected from someone whose life path was dictated from the start. ]

I think most people use lettuce, salsa, and then some shredded cheese. Some people like adding sour cream too.

[ Helpfully, the bowls of toppings are arranged in that specific order, the bucket of sour cream set at the very end of the line.

Minato cants his head a bit at Mitsuru. It's... so very like her, he thinks, to be concerned with ensuring she's making the taco properly. That's what made her so reliable as one of SEES' upperclassmen. Even if he'd been assigned the role of Leader, the group would have truly been lost without Mitsuru.

So he posits, gently: ]


It's okay, senpai. There's no right or wrong way to make a taco.

I see. So it is entirely more of a personal preference thing.

[ She looks oddly sheepish for a moment - one of those looks she has that not many people get to see. ]

I'm overthinking this rather a lot, aren't I?

[ She's aware she does that at least. Even if it is sometimes to her detriment, it's a habit she finds difficult to shake. She approaches the rest of the toppings laid out with what she hopes is in a manner of someone who has definitely eaten tacos before, even though she clearly hasn't and layers the taco with rather more of the salad type ingredients than the cheese.

She does stop to eye the sour cream bucket though. ]


I will try a little bit of everything, although sour cream doesn't sound particularly appealing...

[ She does however, remain game in this and pops a small dollop of it right on top. Then pauses. ]

Arisato. My apologies if this seems like a foolish question but...

How exactly does one eat this without making an utter mess of themselves and the floor?

[ Is that why Koromaru is still sticking close to her...? ]

[ He doesn't blame her at all for that overthinking. It's how SEES had managed to come so far. While Minato was in charge of providing commands in the field, directing SEES was mainly Ikkutsuki and Kirijo-senpai's duties. It was, basically, her job to overthink.

Minato glances at the sour cream bucket at the mention of that particular topping. He almost opens his mouth to pipe up and explain sour cream isn't actually "sour," but... she can find out for herself. Firsthand experience is always the best teacher.

He shakes his head. ]


It's better to ask, isn't it?

[ They're talking about tacos so the stakes are low. Mitsuru should know though it's better to be safe than sorry. He can't help but crack a small smile at the question. It's not because he's laughing at her, rather, it's because: ]

You can't. You just... accept that it's going to happen.

[ Accept the mess into your heart, Mitsuru. ]

That's what the plate is for though. If you eat over it, it should catch most of what falls from the taco.

[ Sorry Koromaru... ]
