Sixth Floor Common Room, Thursday Evening

[wasthecuteone]

It was Petra's birthday, and she was throwing her own party, thank you very much, because she deserved a party, and also cake. There were streamers and balloons, a cake she'd picked up at J,GoB (She didn't realize it yet, but the inside looked like this. It would be a delightful surprise) and ice cream, along with chips and dips and plenty of other moddable snacks and drinks. There was a handwavey party playlist pumping from Petra's iPod's speaker dock, and there was a ball pit. What more could any party want? Petra was pretty sure the answer was nothing. Come on, ball pit.

The birthday girl was wearing a green velvet party dress and her sparkly gold boots. She had on black leggings under the dress, though, because she was totally getting in that ball pit and didn't want to flash anyone. Especially, you know, considering, but mostly just in general.

((Open party is open to all!))

"Yeah, I know some people think it's tacky or whatever, but who cares about them? They can just not come, and not have any cake," Petra said breezily.

"Why tacky?" Mercy asked. "I mean, sure, if you'd made us all buy you some present off an expensive list to be able to come, sure, but if you just want to be able to have fun on your birthday why not?"

"I don't know," Petra said with a shrug, "something about not celebrating yourself or something stupid like that. I don't buy into a lot of those etiquette rules. I want a party and cake on my birthday and that's okay."

"I think it's fine, and that is one incredible looking cake!"

"Isn't it cool?" Petra asked admiringly. "I just saw it in the case at the bakery, I had no idea it was like that until I cut it open."

"It's amazing," Mercy said. "I'll have to remember it in case I want one for my birthday."
