prank #49 | text [FILTERED AWAY FROM ROSE, DAVE & DIRK]
so...jade harley is gone again, for anybody who knew her.
which...kind of makes my original intent for this post somewhat awkward. i am kind of torn wondering if the fact that i dragged my feet with this is a good thing or if i should be kicking myself over it.
more leaning towards the latter.
anyway, that's beside the point.
point is: next month is jade harley, dave and dirk strider, and rose lalonde's birthdays.
they're on december 1st, 3rd, and 4th, respectively. with both striders being on the same day if that party wasn't clear.
since they're so close together, aradia and i were going to throw them a three day long sort-of-surprise-but-not-really party with a semi-break in the middle on the 2nd.
which we're still going to do, though obviously it might end up being a little shorter than we originally planned.
i figured it might not be a bad idea to mention that now so their friends can make travel plans if they want to stop by for a day or two.
it'll be at rose and i's house in ecruteak. if you can make it, just let aradia or i know at some point and we can give you the address/directions.
and even if you can't make it, i'm sure they would appreciate some birthday well-wishes.
somehow, i would be willing to bet that between dirk just arriving here, dave being the aloof coolkid that he is, and rose being...uh...rose, that they probably never brought up their birthdays to any of the friends they've made here.
that's all!
i hope you're all having a good day. :)

ahaha yeah, definitely not hoppip. that would fall more jade's way.
plants and all.
horrific things pretty well describes rose's interests though.
though if you're having trouble finding something appropriately eldritch horroresque, there's always books.
she has a library/study type thing going on in the house now, but she doesn't really have that many books yet since we've been traveling so long.
also wizards. she really likes wizards. and cats. and eevees.
i'd say knitting too but at this point she's pretty well covered on that front. unless you just want to get her some yarn i guess? she can always use more of that, but she's covered on needles and stuff like that.
shh. one holiday at a time.
i try not to think about christmas until after i get through birthdapocalypse.
so many presents to buy.
so much decorating to do.
so much cooking.
and then there's new years right after and fuck see? see?
this is why i just focus on one at a time.
we haven't even gotten past thanksgiving yet and you know that's only two days before jade's birthday this year.
[Welcome to John's holiday hell, Bro.]
no subject
she really is my ectodaughter.
now i dont even know where to start.
and john did you seriously just.
suggest i get her yarn.
is that a fucking thing you just did.
what kind of douchebag buys someone yarn for their birthday.
do i really look like the kind of guy to buy someone yarn.
answer carefully.
your life is hard john.
thats all i really have to say on the matter.
it sounds like you need a break.
maybe you should let me cook for you.
which is to say just order goddamn pizza and stop fretting.
no subject
that was me saying why i didn't think it was worth bothering to mention knitting.
for the record though: she likes getting yarn.
i usually throw in a couple of skeins with her christmas present.
no.
just no.
we're not doing pizza for the holidays.
my life isn't that hard just more like this time of year is super busy.
but that's ok.
even if i whine about it, super busy is better than the alternative.
no subject
maybe.
im not an old man like you though.
god what a geezer.
whats wrong with holiday pizza?
its the fucking best thing.
who needs ham or turkey or any of that shit.
just get a fucking pizza with ham on it.
bam.
dinner is served.
no subject
you got me.
no.
there's nothing wrong with pizza but no.
no subject
theres no denying it john.
or should i call you johnathan.
that sounds suitably old.
youre such a party pooper.
no subject
please don't that just sounds terrible.
john is fine since...that's my name.
it's not actually short for jonathan.
no i'm just something of a traditionalist, i guess.
no subject
just like dave is short for daverito.
see i had a bag of doritos in my pocket when i found him and he got his hands on em.
the rest is history.
a party pooping traditionalist.
