third time's the charm
who: The NEETs, Chibita, anyone who was invited or wants to stumble across the party
what: A Belated Bday party for the NEETS
when: Afternoon-Evening, Dec 10th
where: On the beach in one of those convenient cabins mentioned in the mingle log
warnings: none insofar. Probably drunken shenanigans, bad karaoke and possibly feels? We'll see.
So once upon a time (that time being, specifically, on the TDM about a month and a half ago,) Ichimatsu mentioned to Chibita that he'd missed his own birthday. Naturally, Chibita suggested that they have a belated party to make up for it. Now, he's making good on that idea. It just so happens that the festival and the Beach Cabins offered above happen to be a rather good opportunity. So he's managed to snag one of them this morning, and claimed it for the party later.
Said cabin is now moderately decorated. There's a couple simple happy birthday banners up, as well as a couple non-helium balloons scattered on the floor. Chibita's set up a bit of food and drink in the kitchen for people to come in and nosh on. The table has been taken over by an array of finger foods, mostly. Chips, dips, veggies, bacon-wrapped-dates, shrimp chips, gyoza, salted chicken wings, and various yakitori. Oh, and, of course, oden. Because if Chibita's preparing the party, there is absolutely going to be oden.
There is, also, a cake. Said cake is homemade and looks quite similar to the one in this photo. But don't worry: that stick of oden is made of fondant and moulding sugar. The cake has also been safely tucked away in the fridge for safekeeping.
Aside from things to eat, there's also plenty to drink. Nothing really too 'hard liquor'-ish, though. Beer, wine and cider, mostly, as well as mulled wine on the stove, because it's cold and that's a great drink for the holidays. And plenty of soda and other non-alcoholic entities, for those abstaining or too young.
Additionally, there's several different board games in the shared living space for people to play with. Scrabble, Taboo, Pictionary, and even mahjong, to name a few. So have a go at those. There is, unfortunately, a TV screen that's been hooked up to a Karaoke machine. So that is also an option, to be used for good or for evil. There's plenty of space to lounge and mingle to your fancy, both inside and out. There's a fire in the fire place, as well as a bonefire outside, supplied with the necessary ingredients for s'mores.
So, uh...help yourself? Maybe you know any of these guys and were invited. Maybe you just stumbled across the party on the beach and decided to join in. The post is your metaphorical Belated Birthday Oyster.

So did your army go to war?
no subject
We did. All the way to England. We've already killed one king and we're going to do the same to another.
[He says this all very proudly, the way most teenagers talk about getting all A's on a report card or how they'd gotten their first paycheck from a job.]
no subject
Well, uh... That's good! I guess! Good job! [????????]
no subject
Thank you. I'll go back someday soon and finish the job.

No, the reason is that these kings killed my father, the most famous Viking king of all time. One hated him outright and did the deed, but the other pretended to be his friend while handing him over all the same. I hate him the worse for it. When I get my hands on him-- [He bares his teeth in the slightest resemblance to a smile.] --they will hear his screams all the way in Hell.

I... I'm sorry. [at least Ivar got them back]
no subject
[Which was a good thing for everyone's welfare. Ragnar was perhaps the only one that could put a leash on his son's more violent and brutal tendencies.]
no subject
Wh-what, really? Like, he's alive, an' everything?
no subject
[To have his father present again, Ivar would have done just about anything. His love for the man knew no bounds.]
no subject
This place... has that kinda power, to pull people here from different worlds an' different times. It's super weird.
no subject
[Nine months here and Ivar has become inoculated to all the weirdness.]

How... do ya plan on doin' it? Goin' back, I mean.

I don't even know how to read, let alone anything as much to do with technology as that.

Japanese has its own alphabet too! The symbols are called characters, though. And there are different alphabets depending on what you're writing about. [Osomatsu looks around and finds a piece of paper and a pen]
Let's see. Since your name is pretty foreign, I'd write it in katakana. [he thinks about how he would write out Ivar's name, then settles on Aibaa (アイバー)... there might be a better way to write it, but that's simple enough for now] There! Ivar! [then he draws a grumpy-looking face below it]
no subject
So many alphabets. Why does there need to be more than one for the same language?
[Ivar had wondered if there was more than the two that he knew. Ivar always has a thirst for knowledge and is always interested to learn more about other cultures, provided nothing conflicts with his own belief system.]
