action, video and birthday party log
action, around Attleton and Nova City, morning and lunchtime
[ Yay, it's Cassian's birthday! His second since arriving in Genessia, in fact. Except, you know, the birthday boy hates parties and being the center of attention alike and would rather not have one at all, so he will be doing his best to treat this day as just a regular day. It's not that his birthday is a secret, as such, just not something he has any wish to go out of his way to share with people.
He will be going to work as usual in Attleton and can be found on the streets of Nova City late in the morning on the way to and from a meeting with a client.
At noon, he can be found in the Attleton park, sitting on a bench looking solemn and lost in thought while he is feeding crumbs of bread to the ducks. His eyes keep going back to the wedding band on his hand. His life has changed so much since he arrived here. He has changed so much. It makes you dizzy if you let yourself think about it properly. ]

[ There's Cassian, looking annoyed... and very sparkly, with glitter in his hair, his face, his clothes... everywhere. Every time he huffs in annoyance, a cloud of red glitter is stirred up on his desk. So much for keeping it quiet and avoiding any ridiculousness.
Resigned to his fate, he holds up an equally glitter-covered card saying "Happy Birthday" and the remains of an exploded, obviously glitter filled balloon in a package - a little gift from Lucky, not that he knows that yet. ]
Whoever sent this: not funny. Thank you.
birthday party: SoKaCa house in Attleton, evening
[ If he had thought he could get away with having his birthday go unnoticed, Cassian is proven wrong once he returns home. He notices something fishy as soon as he opens the door and finds the house surprisingly quiet, no pets or pokemon greeting him by the door.
He comes to a sudden stop as soon as he walks into the living room, which is decorated with party streamers and balloons, a large birthday cake on the table. The terrace door is open, letting guests and pokemon wander outside to enjoy the gardens that are lush and still blooming with fairy magic.
The party has been quietly arranged by Sonico, careful to keep Cassian none the wiser while she invited guests and planned it. She is the welcoming hostess tonight, while Cassian himself looks a little bit embarrassed but quietly pleased and does his best to socialize. ]
OOC: Sonico has been inviting Cassian's friends, so if you have CR with him or are just curious about that party going on in Attleton, feel free to assume you got an invitation.

[ That actually surprised Ayame enough to cause her to pause. Why would- But she recovers immediately anyway. ]
Not literally a bomb, but the youths of this world have a phrase to call some thing "the bomb" to describe something spectacular. Which I believe to be appropriate for this gift.
[ Ayame shows pride in her choice of gift that she puts her hands on her hips and puffs up her chest a little as they continue to stroll ]
Alright. Second clue: it is a luxury item.
no subject
He chuckles a little, hands raised up in surrender. He's distracted when Bahryn, his Pachirisu, scampers up his leg. Cassian cradles the squirrel-like pokemon against his chest while his attention returns to Ayame. ]
If it's a luxury item, I'm afraid I'm out. I wouldn't be able to guess that. Unless you give me another hint, maybe?
no subject
[ Ayame gestures to the door towards the house, changing direction to walk toward there while inviting Cassian to follow ]
For the third and final hint, moments before the great reveal... Here it is: it's large.
[ Ayame lets herself in, shrugging and smiling in her usual assured manner whenever she's planning a surprise. ]
And it is in the living room. For now, if you want to move it elsewhere, let me know.
no subject
[ He's just firing off wild suggestions now. Luxury items, what would be large and luxurious and go into the living room. ]
A giant cat climbing post?
[ He's laughing a little at himself and his own cluelessness, body posture relaxed as he walks with Ayame. ]
Am I allowed to go and look yet?
no subject
[ Despite just throwing out random item names while they walk... Cassian actually got it right. She laughs, nodding with a hint of both surprise and pride as they reach the living room. It's definitely large and fit for the use of many people and pets, she thought. Kinda makes her miss her old house, really.
But as they both wait for three seconds to pass, a portal appears out of thin air inside the living room, revealing the present to be a massage chair after all. The reclining kind that mimics "zero-gravity" supposedly. ]
There we go. I didn't simply pick a random one either. It's among the best that I've seen. Happy birthday, Cassian.
no subject
[ He looks even more gobsmacked by the good luck with his wild guess than by the very fancy massage armchair itself. Luxurious, indeed, he's never seen anything like that outside of posh furniture stores in Attleton.
He turns to Ayame again, chuckling a little, running a hand through his hair. ]
Thank you, Ayame. That's unexpected... and a very useful gift. [ At this, he looks more than a little amused. A treat, but still a useful gift. Ayame gets him. ]
no subject
[ Ayame places a hand on his shoulder, nodding in acknowledgement of his gratitude. ]
I figured it would be useful for how much you tend to push yourself, and it's good since you wouldn't have to be touched by someone else to get the relaxation you need.
no subject
[ And he's a little awkward in figuring out how to show his proper gratitude. Fortunately, the white cat coming over to sniff at the new addition to their living room proves a distraction. ]
I'm thinking that new armchair might even lead to a truce between Fest and me.
no subject
Ah, it's Fest. I see they're just as adorable as I left them.
[ Ayame squats down, reaching a hand at Fest to invite the cat towards her. By now, she's got some experience with cats to be comfortable around them ]
Speaking of stresses, I have been considering to go back in the world of business. Although I am sad to say it wouldn't be fashion related.
[ She says with a chuckle. Fashion remains her passion, although that isn't really the most lucrative or helpful ]
