Sixth Floor, Thursday Evening -- Merlin's Birthday Party

[bitchprince]

If Arthur had still been back at Camelot, the idea of holding celebrations for a servant's birthday would have seemed preposterous. But he wasn't, and it didn't, and if he were really honest with himself he'd admit he enjoyed it (or at least in as much as it involved picking out presents that made him fret some on the inside and yelling at people about getting decorations in).

The Sixth Floor was decorated rather decadently for a birthday party. There were some CDs of painfully carefully selected songs playing through the system - the ones Arthur had judged least likely to shatter eardrums (and maybe tending towards the classical and medieval).

And there was food. Courtesy of Francine.

Arthur didn't like half-measures much.

"Firekeeper!"

The whole being-glad-to-see-you thing was a little more genuine, here. "Glad to see you've made it."

"I like parties, I like Merlin," Firekeeper grinned. "Therefore, it make sense that I am here."

"Indeed it does," he said, "And Francine arranged the food, so you and Blind Seer won't be lacking for food."

.. it was disturbing, that he was making allowances for a wolf. Arthur endeavoured simply not to think about it.

Arthur would perhaps be glad to know "not thinking about it" was a fairly standard reaction? At least, in her own world.

"Good. Food is almost as important as music, for parties." Which was her way of complementing him on his choices there, yes.

"That's what I thought," he said. "How have you kept yourself these past few weeks?"

Arthur was in host mode. Everyone should be terrified.

"Thinking there was too much time," she made a face, "for doing nothing." Which translated into being bored with the lack of good hunting during the winter season.
