[Dick's sounding considerably more cheerful than he has over the last couple days, if only because he has an evil plan and doing nice things for other people usually works pretty well in terms of yanking him out of pits of depression.]

So today's is Tim's birthday, I'm throwing him a surprise party, and you're all invited. Meet at my room after dinner, and don't tell him anything. [Or else.]

[Private to Claudia]

Hey. I know you're kind of in a rough place, so no pressure if you're not feeling up to it, but we'd love to have you there.

[Private to Rorschach]

I know this isn't really your thing, but it's Tim's birthday and I'm throwing him a party. I'm just inviting a couple people, so it's not a huge get together or anything, so if you want to make an appearance, I'd be happy to see you there.

[Spam for Tim]

[At some point while Tim was out of his room, someone - cough - has broken into your room and put red, green, black and yellow streamers everywhere. Everywhere. Enough that it almost looks like someone was trying to host a high school dance or something in your apartment. There are also a couple matching balloons.

Oh also there was a note taped to your door in very nondescript handwriting that said "You forgot something, didn't you?" because it's just not a surprise birthday without leaving vaguely incriminating notes taped to people's doors.]

[ooc: If people are interested in doing a log or something, I can throw it together, or we can just assume a fun time was had by all. Whatever works best for everyone. c:]

[THIS IS PERFECT TO TAKE HER MIND OFF THINGS.]

Dick, I think it's safe to say that you're pretty much my favorite person right now. I'm in.

Wow, that's a pretty big compliment.

[Grin.] People who throw parties climb that list pretty fast.

Won't he be able to hack this, though?

The network here doesn't work that way. I honestly think it's more magic than science.

[Merlin has his own depression pit right now but yay parties?]

I think I can manage that. Do you need anything doing in advance?

[Merlin, tonight is a night of leaving our respective pits and eating cake. Come join us.]

If you've got any food you want to bring. I'm making a cake and I've got ice cream, but if there's anything else you're in the mood for.

Admit it, you're just doing this to remind him he even has a birthday.

No, I like doing nice things for people on days like today. I won't bore you with the potential psychological explanations. [i.e. Bruce never showing up/not having a normal childhood/the unofficial my parents are dead so we don't celebrate holidays >C policy at Wayne Manor.]

How are you doing?

Better, thanks. I guess I just needed a little time to start pulling myself up out of the ditch I tripped into.

How are you doing?

Should I bring anything?

If you want. I've got cake, ice cream and soda, but if there's anything you're in the mood for, feel free to bring it. Kara's apparently making curry.

A party sounds great, actually. I'll be there.

Awesome. First floor, room ten.

My lips are sealed.

And I think I already have the perfect gift in mind. [ It only took her about twenty seconds to think of it. ]

Do I get spoilers?

To be fair, I sincerely doubt Tim knew it was his birthday, so you're not alone.

[The note is, quite frankly, chilling him a little more than it probably should. Dick might have heard footsteps approaching, but they're stopping short when he sees that note, and everything is stealth mode after that. He moves quietly, checks up and down the hall, and stands to the side of his door before opening it, slowly.

He doesn't ask who's there or say hello or anything like that, he just inches the door open and peeks in - low, almost crouching, before he takes a step inside, peering around the room.

This is definitely not how he left it and - are those streamers?

Tim straightens and reaches for the nearest light switch, flicking it on and staring and Dick what did you do.]

[Yeah, sorry about that Tim, in retrospect maybe it was a bad idea. But Dick is just going to be stepping out from where he was hiding and grinning like a Cheshire cat because lololol hi bro. c:]

Happy birthday.
