Once you party with us

Characters: Dave Strider, the loser Homestucks with birthdays in December, Naminé, and everyone else who's in the Media Room at that time.
Setting: Media Room
Format: Either
Summary: Party in the media room. Look at all these stupid kids who have birthdays in December.
Warnings: Teenagers are dumb. Stupid shenanigans.

It wasn't really a proper party set-up. There were no decorations or anything that would signify it were a party. Dave didn't really have supplies or time to make anything and he wasn't really around to even plan anything in the first place.

Jason didn't really make it any easier by giving them only foodbars and water for this month either.

But he did try. He made those shitty paper ringlets to hang and he taped really crappy drawings of balloons to the walls. An attempt was made and he thinks his balloons are pretty fucking awesome anyways. It was a little sad. The list was a lot shorter than he anticipated. He ignored that nagging thought though. He didn't want to recall that a lot of his friends had left while he was gone.

Yeah, pretending that isn't a thing that happened.

Too busy admiring his really shitty attempt at birthday decorations.

Damn, he even made a cake. Ok. It wasn't really a cake. He mashed nutrition bars into a bowl with water and attempted to bake it. That...that didn't actually really come out like he hoped. Mostly, he put it in too long so the outside was completely burn yet the middle was still a really gross mush. No one was probably going to eat it. But it's the thought that counts...

It's a really gross fucking cake.

Obviously though, he should be in charge of birthdays all the time. "Fuck, I'm amazing at this." No, Dave. This is pretty shitty and you know it. You tried though. You tried.

[He shrugs.]

Eh. Shit happens. I'd say it wasn't the end of the world, but it kind of was. What else doesn't add up though?

[She manages a small, wry, but apologetic smile at that first part which fades into a thoughtful look at the second. She doesn't sound angry about any of this; she's just explaining herself.]

Well... the difference in placement on the timeline, for example. If our worlds were destroyed when each of us was taken, why are there other people from the same worlds that weren't taken until much later? I suppose you could argue that we're all from slightly different iterations of the same worlds, but... not everyone who's gone back to their own world and come back to tell about it found it destroyed. And all of this-- it's just a little too convenient, isn't it? These people who have control of this Tower who like to perform experiments on us and cause trouble - isn't it strange that they should happen to find such a perfect opportunity for subjects as the end of those subjects' worlds? When have they ever done anything to suggest that they wouldn't just steal us from our own healthy, safe worlds and tell us that they were gone?
