Party like it's your birthday [OPEN]
Who: Connor & OTA!
When: 15th August
Where: Connor and Hank's cottage
What: Connor's very first birthday!
Warnings: None so far, will update if necessary
[It starts with a video on the 14th. Connor is sitting and petting a very large dragonfly by his head, because that isn't weird at all.]
Hello everyone. I just wanted to send a message out to let everyone know that it's my first birthday tomorrow, and I'm inviting people over to join me for the evening at my home. If we've met, you can assume you're invited. If we haven't met, well... I'd like to meet you, so you're invited too. There will be food, and the backyard has a giant pool. I hope to see you there.

[And on the actual night of his birthday, of course Connor is confined to his pool because of the full moons. Which is fine, he supposes, as long as people want to swim with him. As promised there is plenty of food, laid out on a table near the back of the cottage, and he's even set out a couple of small tables and seats. The backyard is large and lit up by floating lights, but most of it is taken up by a huge pool.
Connor himself is swimming around, though if he spots someone he'll come over to greet them. He'll look very different to his usual self, his teeth long and sharp and his eyes a milky blue instead of the usual warm brown; he's mostly blind above the water tonight. His fingers are unnaturally long and tipped with claws, and the little balls at the end of his whiskers and ear fins glow a soft blue. His entire body is covered in scales now. He still sounds the same though, and if approached he seems pleased that someone actually turned up.]
((Feel free to mingle amongst yourselves too!))

Your first birthday? You appear far older than one.
no subject
[He doesn't mind the question, he knows it probably seems strange.]
I was activated on August 15, though. So technically, tomorrow is my birthday.
no subject
[Even with the things he'd seen here, in this world, he's still just a bit baffled by this.]
no subject
[And he's only been activated for six and a half months. Actually, he was deactivated for a while after the resolution of his first case, just because he wasn't needed at the time.]
no subject
Oh.
Oh! Well, that's really interesting, then. Can't say I've run into anything like that back home. What can you do? Any special abilities, such as shooting lasers from your eyes?
no subject
Well, I can analyse things by tasting them. My tongue acts as a mobile lab. I can also scan my environment and determine the probability of certain events unfolding.
[And, since it seems like the man wants an example, Connor switches his voice to perfectly mimic his briefly.]
And I can do this.
no subject
But then, his own voice is mimicked to a t and he actually gasps.]
Wh -- that sounds just like me! [That could be a problem.] That's incredibly dangerous, but I'm sure you're aware of that, right?
no subject
[He mostly uses his control over his voice to sing, nowadays. It's easier to give in to his Merrow urges.]
no subject
[He says this in an incredibly cold, stern voice.]
What if this world drives the two of us toward opposite sides? Like a war, perhaps? Then you'll be able to pretend you're me over these devices, gathering important information from those who trust me.
Terrifying.
no subject
[That seems like a fair enough deal to Connor.]
