Birthday Hogs

WHO: Hedgehaus and friends
WHAT: Birthday Party
WHEN: Hedgehog Birthday Weekend
WHERE: Hedgehaus
WARNINGS: A stupid amount of chili dogs. PROBABLY FEELINGS? Listen, some people have personhood issues. Maybe Boomdow.


Sonic new it was around his Birthday. Vaguely. Move around planets enough and its hard to track the date, he had a birthday not too far from when he arrived on Earth. So the BEarthday was very fitting. And, well, Shadow woke up from cyro the same day or day after, so Sonic figured he could share it with his Shadow.

But also explaining that to people would be weird, and telling WAY too much, and also Primedow and SonIDW had their birthdays around the same time and that's why the banners say Birthday.

Sonic was nothing, if not stupidly sentimental. He knew he was throwing a party for his Shadow because he deserved it and well, he isn't going to just ignore the others. Maybe talk about a week of celebration or something for next year.

The beauty of superspeed though is he can set up a party FAST. He just has to make sure Big Blue is busy upstairs for a few minutes and BOOM, party is set up.

First and foremost, the party is an explosion of color. Why? Sonic promised Primedow and SonIDW pride flags and he delivered. There are rainbows and all sorts of other flags scattered across the yard, on the walls, and over the first floor. He's even got balloons over pride flag colors.

There was a banner that said 'HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHADOWS AND SONICS!' Hand painted, so its a bit messy, and made with blue, red, and black.

There is SO much food. Most of it is cake and chilidogs. Mostly because Sonic knows how much Sonics can pack away, and other people should get to enjoy these foods. There is even a variety in the cake flavors! Chocolate, white, strawberry, even lemon.

There is also coffee beans. Just....just straight coffee beans.

And some chocolate covered espresso beans, and Tiramisu. Less of that, but still plenty. And burgers for those who think hotdogs are beneath them or something.

There is also fruit salad, and guacamole with chips for those who want something kind of healthy.

There is a table labeled GIFTs and a sign. 'Be sure you indicate WHICH Shadow or Sonic. Fluffy are the younger ones.'

The party activities are scattered in the yard and the first floor of the house. Its nothing too over the top, beyond the color explosion. There is music for outside hanging out, some dancing. There is also a television for people to play video games on. (There will be DDR at some point, thanks Eva.)

Inside, there is a large stack of DVDs to watch movies inside.

There are board games on the dining room table for people to play those.

There is also a sign at the stairs to the second floor. 'RESIDENTS ONLY. If someone is upstairs, you leave them alone, even if they're one of the Birthday Boys! Any non-resident attempting to go upstairs if not accompanied by a resident will be swiftly removed.' (He figures he should account for social batteries. Especially for his Shadow and Maria. Sometimes you need a space to retreat away from people.)

((Feel free to mingle!!!))
roundandaround: Turning happily to the person next to her. (you're the best)

[giggle fit]

Katsuki-kun told me about that! He was kinda lecturing me for trying to help other people get dates and stuff.

[That manages to get a little wheeze-laugh out of Chipp, too, of course.]

I ain't surprised in the least, no! Kid's so uptight, I don't think he'n the boy he likes'll ever talk if someone don't help'em out...
But y'know. I already been chewed out for helpin', so I'll leave that to other folks.

[😇]

... Ain't dates 'n stuff somethin' you been havin' a hard time with, though?
Why you helpin' out other folks when ya got your own stuff to figure out?
roundandaround: Sheepish. (well......)

[personal profile] roundandaround 2025-06-25 12:35 am (UTC)(link)
[Busted. Rinku points her fingers together and looks away.]

I kinda thought it was easier to help other people and then everything would just work out...
fauxbot: (screen, neutral) (📺↮39)

[personal profile] fauxbot 2025-06-25 12:46 am (UTC)(link)
[Busted!!
But that means she's getting a headpat.]


'S easier, but not in the way ya think... sure, you ain't gotta worry 'bout your own stuff, keeps shit easy that way -
But it ain't gonna untangle itself, neither.

What all you been havin' a hard time with?
roundandaround: Confused. (eh?)

[personal profile] roundandaround 2025-06-25 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
I dunno. Hm... how do you get people to take you seriously? I feel like maybe everyone who hears me say I love everyone thinks I don't get it. Or most people.
fauxbot: (screen, unsure) (📺↮113)

[personal profile] fauxbot 2025-06-25 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
... I mean, honestly, I dunno why they ain't take ya seriously in the first place... ain't hard to believe, if you ask me.

[Give him a second, he's gonna think on this.]

Maybe... hmmm.
You got any limits to it? That might be what makes it kinda hard to believe - folks hear ya say that 'n think ya mean it literally.
But, I dunno... I can't picture you fallin' for someone who's eighty or somethin'.
Or someone who murdered a shitton o' people.

So... if ya got limits, maybe that the angle you oughtta focus on when folks don't take ya seriously.
roundandaround: Confused worry. (con? cern???)

[personal profile] roundandaround 2025-06-25 01:43 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I guess I definitely wouldn't fall in love with a really old person. That'd be kinda weird. And not someone who's a jerk, like Spiky Shadow-kun, he has something against Neechan for no good reason. Which is weird 'cause the other ones are really good to her.

Hm... I dunno. If someone killed a lot of people, even if I wouldn't like that, that still might not mean they're a bad person. Like there's people who were in war, or people who got forced to kill and die a whole bunch in those places I told you about. But I wouldn't like someone like those guys who kidnap otherworlders who aren't human and do experiments on them, making sure they don't die so they won't come back safe. They don't even have a good reason, and they hurt my friends.
fauxbot: (screen, annoyed) (📺↮09)

[personal profile] fauxbot 2025-06-25 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
...

[There's a LOT he could say to that whole latter half of what she's said, and man, he visibly has to stop himself from saying anything - turning his head to look away and shut his eyes for a moment.

And then he'll look at her again, that eye on his screen going just a little more stern than usual.]


... 'Member what I toldja 'bout talkin' to me if anyone seems weird. Ouais?

But... that means ya do have limits; you got lines ya draw in the sand 'n say "okay, anyone past here ain't to my tastes".
So if someone ain't take ya seriously next time, you got somethin' you can clarify with. Make it more real to the folks who don't get it.
roundandaround: Wink. (leave it to me!)

[personal profile] roundandaround 2025-06-25 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
[she doesn't mean to worry him, it just happens..........]

I'll try that! Thanks a lot! You have answers for all kinds of things, Chipp-san.
fauxbot: (screen, neutral) (📺↮11)

[personal profile] fauxbot 2025-06-25 02:33 am (UTC)(link)
Well... it ain't that I got answers for everything -
More like I lived a life that made me need to come up with answers... so I'm good at it.

[And now she's getting her hair ruffled! Softly, nice 'n soft about it.]

'N you know what? Anyone mean to you 'bout your preferences 'n shit, you can come to me 'bout it.
I'll give'em a good whack for ya.

[He's joking this time, honest--]
roundandaround: Rinku looking back, running. (come on with me)

[personal profile] roundandaround 2025-06-25 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
[Rinku laughs and butts her head up into the hair fluffing.]

I'll try my best! Thanks, Chipp-san. You're a lot nicer than you say you are.
fauxbot: (screen, happy) (📺↮50)

[personal profile] fauxbot 2025-06-25 02:43 am (UTC)(link)
[She's gonna get SO many headpats, then-]

Awww... 's only 'cause you nice to me, hun!
roundandaround: Sparkle eyes, surprise. (it can do that?!)

[personal profile] roundandaround 2025-06-25 02:46 am (UTC)(link)
[Happy Rinku noises!]

Ehe. How many flags do you think he's gonna want us to take? Like, the big ones too?
fauxbot: (screen, interest) (📺↮14)

[personal profile] fauxbot 2025-06-25 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
I dunno - prolly? I'm sure he gonna want 'least one of each to keep, himself...
'Side from that, though, I dunno why he'd wanna keep a whole bunch of'em, y'know?

[And now he's looking up at one of the big ones...]

... I bet those'd make a good cape.
roundandaround: Smiling in agreement. (you get it!)

[personal profile] roundandaround 2025-06-25 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
I bet some people wear them like that. I mean, why wouldn't they? It'd be fun! I would.

[Yeah, she's considering it...]
fauxbot: (screen, neutral) (📺↮12)

[personal profile] fauxbot 2025-06-25 03:00 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm...

[Looking at it, thinking, considering...]

- Y'know. Bet it'd look cool on stage if ya added a reflective trim o' some kind.
All the lights bouncin' off that, it'd look cool-cool.
roundandaround: Cheering. (yeeee)

[personal profile] roundandaround 2025-06-25 03:02 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, that sounds fun! Good idea! And maybe I could make it float around behind me or something!
fauxbot: (screen, neutral) (📺↮11)

[personal profile] fauxbot 2025-06-25 03:04 am (UTC)(link)
Ouais, yeah! You can do that, right? Summer stuff!
Get it flappin' the right way... could even have it pick up with the music 'n everything!
roundandaround: Sparkle eyes, talking. (guess what)

[personal profile] roundandaround 2025-06-25 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah! Telekinesis! I'm gonna try my best and have it all ready in time. It'll be great! Thanks!
