IV

[notzubats]

Who: Sora
Broadcast: Video
Action: SS Huntress
When: August 5th

[From the looks of the video feed, Sora looks like he's broadcasting from his quarters, sitting on the bed. Since leaving the planet, he really hasn't been his cheerful self, rather opting to spend plenty of time in his room instead of wandering around the Huntress. Heck, this broadcast even seems pretty down.]

Today's August 5th, isn't it?

Guess that means I'm 16 now. How 'bout that? [It...feels wrong. There should be people that he's celebrating with, but he's not. If anything, he's feels further away from them than he's ever been.]

[But he swallows those feelings before asking what he wanted to ask]

But oh hey, I wanna ask something. Does the word Pokémon mean anything to anyone? They're a kind of creature that inhabit my world, and I wanna know if they're anywhere else.

Comments

Action; WHOOPS

[notzubats]

[He looks up from the broadcast and sets the comm down when he hears the knock. He gets up an goes to answer the door, half-expecting it to be Dezel or Sorey from the energy level. So he's a little surprised to see who it is]

Pinkie?

[And lo, a rainbow of streamers erupts from the side. It's not as CRAZY as normal, they're subdued, but still...streamers, yep. ]

And Cheese! Happy birthday, Sora!

[He's at least trying to contain his party excitement, trying to tel himself that this is probably how he'd want his own to go down. Nice. Subdued. Quiet. ]

[spontaneouscombustion]

[And oh hey there's a cake on Pinkie's back, covered in... sea foam-colored icing?]

Happy birthday~! Where would you like this?

[notzubats]

Whoa!

[He jumps a little at the streamers, but more in a surprised than startled. These guys really remembered? ]

You guys remembered?

Hey Pinkie- is that a cake on your back?

[preformthisneigh]

Of course we did. It's what we do.

[Sora if he has to explain party ponies to you there will be flowcharts. Probably a song. Don't do that t yourself.]

You deserve a great birthday after all.

[spontaneouscombustion]

[She nods to both questions.]

Yup, there's a cake on my back~ Do you want it here or in your kitchen?

[notzubats]

You guys...

[He smiles, clearly touched by the gesture]

Probably the kitchen. That way the rest of the crew can have some too.

[preformthisneigh]

We can do that.

I know it's not a big super epic party or anything. I don't know if you want one? I mean we can do that if you like. But if not, it's cool otherwise.

[spontaneouscombustion]

Yeah, this is YOUR day, Sora, you tell us what you're in the mood for!

[She can also give lots of hugs, if he needs them.]

[notzubats]

Well.... [He thinks on it]

I dunno enough people for a big super epic party, but spending time with my friends would nice...

[Sure. Maybe he can't see the friends from home. But he's made some here- like Pinkie and Cheese! He was pretty grateful for them too]

[preformthisneigh]

Great! We can for sure grab your friends and have a real nice little shindig.

[Something quiet. Board games, maybe? Yeah. Board games. ]

[spontaneouscombustion]

[Board games are awesome.]

We sure can! And they can help taste test this cake too!

[notzubats]

Yeah...that sounds good! [He sounds like he's getting hopeful at the idea]

And you two will be there too, right? [SINCE YOU'RE HIS FRIENDS!!]

[preformthisneigh]

Of course we will.

[His smile is so genuine, so earnest. ]

We wouldn't miss it for the world. ALL the worlds, actually.

[spontaneouscombustion]

[Aw, she'll nuzzle her head against Sora a bit. It's not a FULL hug because still carrying a cake, but boy needs some affection.]

Of course we will, silly~

[notzubats]

[You guys are the best ponies anyone could ever get for their birthday]

Good! You guys are my friends too, after all!

Let's see...there's also Finn, Kirito, Poe- and Nightingale too!

[preformthisneigh]

[They try! ]

I can sure try and grab Nightginale, she's on my ship.

[She HATES parties, but she might do it for Sora, who knows. ]

[spontaneouscombustion]

And I can get Finn and Pie for sure, they'd LOVE to come!

[notzubats]

[He smiles at both of them]

Thanks guys, I mean it.

C'mon, let's get that cake to the kitchen!

[preformthisneigh]

YEAH! And then we can get onto Party Phase Two.

[It sounds cooler than "go get everyone". ]

[spontaneouscombustion]

YES!

Oh, should probably put this in the freezer if we wanna wait on everybody; don't want it to start melting!

[Ooooh looks like Sora got his ice cream cake~]

[notzubats]

Okay! [Party phase 2 sounds important!!]

Just follow me! I think there's room in the freezer! [off he goes to the kitchen, his spirits definitely lifted]

[preformthisneigh]

[IT'S SUPER IMPORTANT!! Cheese happily trots after him.]

I sure hope it's big enough.

[Logistics aren't a thing he thinks of when it comes to cake making. This is why it's Pinkie's area, honestly. ]

[spontaneouscombustion]

[Pffft Cheese, please, since when have they ever worried about physics? And it's only a one-layer cake, anyway.]

Let's see... [Ah looks like it's a little high and she might need to move some st-- HOLY COW, SHE PUT THE CAKE IN SEEMLESSLY!] There we go!
