The celebration seems to have turned into a pool party -- the muses got it all ready to go yesterday, and it was definitely hot enough for it today, so. . . .
-M: *wet* Yeah, that water definitely felt good.-
-WRM: *very wet* All birthdays should be like this.-
Heh, yeah, I know.
Work was hot and sticky, but tolerable. My boss cleaned out the air conditioners, so hopefully it won't be a living hell in there. I also got my Birthday Cake Friend-Z. Took a while since the people before me had some sort of issue with a coupon and the place seemed WOEFULLY understaffed, but the end result was worth it. Ice cream and frosting together -- mmmmm.
-M2: Oh, yeah, those were good.-
-VM: Man, I'm jealous. I miss ice cream.-
-VD2: That's why we've got the blender out, kid.-
I also got myself a new, big-ass fan to cool this room down a bit. Ahhh, sweet breezes.
-DW: Much appreciated.-
-MF: Yeah, really.-
-TTV: *looks shy in his Victorian-era bathing suit and a towel*-
-VDM: *also in a Victorian-era bathing suit* Loosen up, Victor. You're with friends.-
-VuM: And no parents this time to ruin things.-
-TTV: Heh, I know. Though I'm sure I'll get the full lecture for not inviting them once I see them again. Even though I'm certain they wouldn't have wanted to come.-
That's just how they are, Victor. They're not happy unless they and everyone around them are miserable.
Annyway, it's been a nice birthday. People dropping by, lots of pool play, everybody getting wet. The Martys got some refurbished skateboards and hoverboards for themselves. Not that some of them need them. *looks at VampMarty and VultureMarty*
-VM: Hey, we still like playing on them.-
-VuM: I don't wear the harness 24/7.-
Heh, true. Victor got a few videotapes of Animaniacs from the Docs.
-D: Well, we know how much you liked it, and knowing that Victor's a lover of cartoons. . . .-
-TTV: *grin* It looks like a lot of fun, thank you.-
Heh, well, I've got presents to hand out too. Martys, you get some new guitar strings --
-MF: Great! We've been needing those.-
-- and some subscriptions to "Got Your Music Monthly," that magazine I mentioned a few times in fics.
-VuM: Cool, thanks.-
-M: Yeah, thanks a lot.-
And Victor -- well, this kinda goes with the cartoons. *gives him a big old croquet mallet*
-TTV: *hugs* Oh, wow! It's lovely! *evilgrin* I know just who to use it on.-
I thought you might. :D
-HD: If you need a hammerspace to keep it in, my hat's available.-
-TTV: Thank you kindly, but I think it'll keep well in my room. *fondles it*-
. . . Oookay, moving on. There's one last surprise for today.
-RPD: I take it this involves me.-
Yeah. I realized, after getting the app for Rift!Doc's Marty rejected, that I haven't been particularly fair to you. All the other Docs have their Martys with them. I've made you just talk to him over a radio. It's the same situation I had with VampDoc before.
-RPD: Yes, but I can see your reasoning. That Marty wasn't your character.-
Neither is Richard the Mad Hatter. And hell, even the Changeling group comes from someone else's idea. They made me realize something.
The Marty Shandy wrote -- isn't necessarily the Marty I imagined for you.
*calls behind her* You can come out now.
-RolePlayMarty: *steps out, looking a little shy* Hey Doc.-
-RPD: . . . . *RUNS OVER AND HUGS HIM* Marty! I -- I missed you.-
-RPM: I missed you too. *playfully to me* Glad you pulled your head out of your behind.-
Yeah, yeah.
-TD: *smile* You know, Vic? This is why we stay with you.-
Tanku. Now come on, I think the Inkwell's expecting us. And they have to greet the new arrival too. :)
Oh, yeah, there's a
