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!))

There is no rush. I plan to enjoy the party a little more.

[She's going to be outside for as long as she physically can manage it though she has no idea how long that will actually be.

Justine leans against his side and smiles as her lovely dark gaze turns towards the table of food.]
I can get myself something in a little bit. I haven't eaten recently but it's been difficult. I can only eat a little bit at a time. [She's trying to regain her strength but also not make herself sicker in the process.]

What all is over there? I can't see from here.

[And she doesn't want to move just yet.]

What about a cake? Should we sing you happy birthday?

Or I can just sing it to you.

[It's a song that he might not know.]

I can get the cake if you'd like or sing.

[Or do both but it's Connor's birthday so he gets to choose what he wants and Justine will do her best to comply.]

Okay then.

[She smiles and begins to sing softly, just for him.]

Happy birthday to you.
Happy birthday to you.
Happy birthday my dear Connor.
Happy birthday to you.

[When the song ends she lightly presses a kiss to his lips.]

I hope this year is an amazing one.

[She smiles as her head comes to rest on his shoulder.]

I don't have plans to go anywhere.

[Justine doesn't know what the universe is planning but she's happy to be here at Connor's side. It's odd and it makes her feel guilty but she does mean it.]
