Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you

[pullsheavendown]

Who: Ventus and Roxas and their friends and MAYBE YOU!
When: Saturday, March 24, all afternoon
Where: The House of Repression Departure, aka Ven, Terra and Aqua's place
Summary: The twins are turning 17! Their close friends and pretty much anyone who's got positive CR with one or both is invited to stop into their open house birthday party. Nothing too structure, gifts aren't required—just come have some cake and good times. Open log, thread away however you like.

It's a little past Ventus' birthday and a little before Roxas', but as far as those not in the know are concerned, they're all-natural twins who are turning 17 today.

And what a nice day it is! Good weather outside, colorful balloons and good cheer inside, and most importantly—cake. Lots of cake. Because each bro gets one, and that means more for guests.

Won't you come celebrate with them?

[Just a little more. A few inches and a few more seconds and it would be off his--

GACK!!

She did not think of that. The one dog she knows (and even then it's only by proxy) did lick on faces, but Pluto wasn't as big nor as intimidating and DEAR LIGHT ABOVE the size of that tongue was huge.

Pardon her for a minute, Oro. She's a little stunned, and remains so for a moment before awkwardly wiping her face and trying to get back to work.

...Gonna pretend it never happened, yeah.]

[todomarishi]

[Oro plops his butt down in front of her, his wagging tail thumping against the floor. When no protesting follows the first lick, he sniffs her hands and licks at them, too.

Good luck getting that hat slowly slipping off the side of his head.]

[It's times like this where Namine wishes she had some prior experience and exposure to dogs. Cats in the Apartment that Never Was were fine, but she never had any experience with someone like Oro before. Pluto was always the elusive one that she never met.

But, ngh, licking of hangs. That's not going to do, Oro. Sorry. She gives up on Operation Make Him Less Dorky as Namine doesn't quite like the feel of dog slobber on her hands.

So it's off to the kitchen sink! Hopefully he won't mind her leaving for a moment.

...And not follow her.]

[todomarishi]

[Oh no. No, it's far too soon in their shiny new friendship for either of them to be wandering off alone. Oro happily trails after her. Kitchen! He likes the kitchen!

As long as Aqua isn't in it.

...And she isn't! Kitchen!

He will even stand up against the counter next to the sink and point out with his nose where the cookies are hidden.]

[rewritethesky]

[Namine isn't nearly as enamored by the contents of the kitchen as Oro is, busying herself at the sink and washing her hands instead. But she does notice what he's pointing to and raises an eyebrow.]

...Do you want one? [Are dogs even allowed to have cookies? Surely one wouldn't hurt him.]

[todomarishi]

[He is no puppy but those are most certainly puppy eyes he's making at her. Cookies? Cookies?]

[rewritethesky]

[V-very convincing puppy eyes.

Meep >:

Please, if there is a Kingdom Hearts, let her not get found and yelled at by Terra or Aqua if they find her sneaking cookies or if Oro gets sick.]

Just one, then. Okay? [And please don't eat her hand. She reaches over and plucks one out of the jar, holding it near him.]

[todomarishi]

[What a wonderful new friend. Feeding him cookies and everything. Oro gently plucks the cookie out of her hand with his front teeth... and then pretty much swallows it whole.

That was good. But he definitely needs another now.

Let's see if the puppy eyes works again. He'll even add in a sit and offer one paw.]

[rewritethesky]

[Dog tricks, she thinks. But she doesn't know what to do, only blinking at him and staring at that paw in the air.

Maybe he wants another one? But she said only one. But they were small cookies and he is a big dog.

...Cats are so much easier to deal with, she thinks.

Decisions, decisions. She dives her hand back into the jar and holds it out to him, but once it's gone, the lid will be back on firm and tight and she'll leave the kitchen.]

...Last one.

[todomarishi]

[Oro takes the second cookie just as carefully as he did the first, watching her carefully to see if she takes one for herself, too. When she doesn't, he reluctantly swallows his and whines some. But he'll follow her out.]

[rewritethesky]

[Ngh, giant puppy thing, don't be a-whinin'. She glances back at him, conflicted now with those whines. But she's staying strong, smiling and reaching to gently part him on the head again.

Only... now what? She should try to play with him or something? He's far too big and strong for her. Someone like Joe or Riku or Terra would be far better suited.]

Why don't you, um... find your owner?

[Just how do people deal with dogs?]

[todomarishi]

[Hm, communication happening. Oro tilts his head to the side and then promptly wanders off!

... Only to come back a moment later with a stuffed toy.]
