Who: Caster, everyone, and one unfortunate victim.
Broadcast: Text! Anonymous text. She's so sneaky.
Action: On the Vanquish!
When: Backdated to yesterday, the 19th!

[Bright and early in the morning, there's an anonymous text post flagged as urgent to the network. Does the network even have urgent flags? It apparently does now. Magic is great.]

ATTENTION, FLEET:
Today is the birthday of an incredibly amazing and talented person! The Vanquish's very own Hermione Granger!
It seems like she's keeping it secret, because she's humble along with everything else, but that won't do at all! People of importance have to be recognized!
So, be sure to shower her plenty of love and praise today, and also gifts! Birthday presents are important too!
All celebrators are to come to the Vanquish immediately!
This is how birthdays work, right?

Ooh, it is? YAY, thanks for the tip, Mystery Texter! What kind of party does she want, what's her favorite cake flavor?

I haven't been able to ask. Humans like surprise parties, after all!

Well of course, it depends on the person, though, some poeple want a quiet party or don't like surprises too much. Plus you know her a LOT better than me, so you probably know something from hanging out with her, right?

Hey, don't go dropping spoilers like that so casually! Maybe I just picked up the date from the records somewhere! The point of anonymity is to be secret, you know!

[... no it's pretty obvious.]

Well of course I don't know your name yet, silly, but you'd still have to know who she is and care about her a lot if you want her to have a birthday party and researched it so you could tell people, right? :)

That's beside the point!

[how is that beside the point?]

Maybe it was just a coincidence, and anyway, that's not the part you should be focusing on!

[You use that word "coincidence." Pinkie does not think it means what you think it means.]

Wow, that's quite the convenient coincidence, but okey-dokey-lokey! What part SHOULD I be focusing on here?

That we should celebrate her, of course.

Well yeah, of course! I just usually need more info if I'm going to throw a party somebody'll absolutely love!

She's very noble, so she's used to very high-end parties, I'm sure! The kind royalty attends.

[Yyyyeah, normally Pinkie would take Caster at her word, but with how cagey she's being about the basic specifics, Hermione's gonna get a text shortly after this conversation.]

High-end, huh? Mmmmm I'll see what I can come up with. Fancier parties aren't really my style, not to mention most of my Fancy Party Gear is back home.

[She'll make a note to get some more supplies along those lines ASAP, though.]

Now if you want something funner but fitting the birthday girl's tastes, then I'm your mare!
