Fifth Floor Common Room; Monday Evening [ 09/20 ].

Sure, Ariel had said just streamers and a banner, but there were balloons now thrown into the mix because she couldn't help it. She and Ellie had gotten up all the decorations, which were all very pretty shades of green, based entirely on the fact that Ariel remembered that green was the color of the shirt she'd helped Chuck pick out. There was still an awful lot of flowers around, too, though who even knew where Ariel was getting them. The banner, meanwhile, was certainly not lacking in sparkle, stretched across the room:


HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHUCK!!!!!


So now there would just be the setting out of all the food and the drinks and ever important CAKE, then waiting for guests and the ever important BIRTHDAY BOY and it would be time to party!


[[ up early because of evil things like working and time zones! Slowly approaching OCD is on the way up! Rock out! ]]

Rilla tried not to be a complete idiot when she saw William. "Good evening," she said with a concerted effort not to lisp.

"Miss Blythe!" William gave her a pleased grin. "I hear congratulations are in order."

She beamed at him. "Indeed! Did you receive my letter?"

"I did," he replied. "And of course I did my duty and voted," he winked at her.

"So did I!" Rilla squealed. It was possible she was a little excited about this. "Imagine how much better Canada would be if women could vote there as well!"

"Apparently we're not too far off from just that," William informed her. "...For you, at least. Within the decade, I hear."

Rilla clapped her hands together. "Oh, Susan will be so pleased! She always says she has twice as much sense as any Douglas ever born overharbour."

"I've often found that women are indeed a good deal more sensible than menfolk in many respects," William shared conspiratorally.

"And that is why you will go quite far in life," Rilla said, beaming at him.
