[CLOSED] HYVÄÄ SYNTYMÄPÄIVÄÄ!!
Who: Lalli, Emil, Akira, Dirk, Jude, Ruby, whoever they want to bring, and Lisko!!!
Where: The garden on the recreation floor of the Shehui apartment building everyone’s in.
When: Dec 2nd OOC
Open/Closed: Closed to invited guests
( Hello, beloved and invited guest! Actually, you likely aren’t beloved and maybe aren’t even directly invited. Anyway! Welcome to the birthday party of the age: Lalli Saku Hotakainen who maybe possibly turned 20 sometime...now...soon? Yeah.
His birthday party reflects how unsure the party planner is of the recipient’s actual birthdate. Some parts of the party have obviously been thought out — for instance, there are three birthday cakes (1, 2, 3) and several gifts already present when you arrive. The chairs and decorations, however, are somewhat mismatched and novice in presentation. You might have enough seats for yourself and your guest, and you may or may not get tangled in some haphazard streamers that are lackadaisically slung in trees. It’s a toss up. At least there are ample plates and about five meat and vegetable snack trays.
It’s a very obviously non-traditional festivity. Also there’s a big lizard there. Have fun. )

Military...stuff?
[WHAT ELSE SHOULD HE HAVE BEEN DOING]
I've been scouting since I was little. After we moved to Keuruu and I was old enough, I started doing it for the military.
no subject
[ Yes, military stuff. Hibiki's eyes open wide upon hearing that...well, that's a surprising piece of information, to say the least. ]
I wouldn't have guessed that you're in the military.
[ At least he's not even trying to hide this. ]
Funnily enough, scouting happens to be one of my duties as well. It seems that we have a few things in common.
no subject
[He's not really sure how to take that... Careers in his world are split into military and academic, so hearing that he doesn't come off as military is...????? Maybe it was just that he was smaller, had that disheveled forest boy look about him like a proper Finn, and maybe that he found conversation oddly difficult. That had certainly set him aside from his peers, even the other scouts that were thin with their words.]
I guess. [Huh. He's found multiple people that have identified themselves as scouts. Neat?] What other stuff do you do, if you're not always scouting?
no subject
[ Thinking out loud here. Not that he has any experience in establishing these. ]
Ah, never mind. [ He's...trying so hard to have a nice conversation and where did this lead him. ] Well...mostly paperwork, especially if my superior is neglecting his own duties.
[ He sighs softly. ]
I'm sorry. Whenever I'm talking, it all eventually ends up being about work. And you probably don't want to discuss that.
no subject
[One of many scouts, even if he had a better track record than most of them.]
It's okay. I miss my job. Emil thinks I'm weird because I want to work while we're here, but...
[The structure of it, filling in a need... Being appreciated and knowing it. That's good.]
no subject
I'm so, so glad to hear this.
[ Because that's how you should feel when someone says that they miss something. Well, for Hibiki it's not just something. It's a job</>. ]
That's not weird at all. You're just responsible and you take your duties seriously.
no subject
Yeah. I couldn't find something exactly the same, but it's sort of close... It helps me stay doing stuff. I want to do stuff instead of sit there feeling scared because it's a weird place.
no subject
[ Although the majority would most likely opt for the latter. ]
I like your attitude. [ Hibiki means it. ] Are they perhaps looking for one more person?
[ He still cannot believe that the system suggested babysitting. His boss might be a huge baby, but... ]
no subject
Yes. Because of their gift-giving thing coming up, people have a lot of stuff they need delivered.
no subject
[ This knowledge might come in useful one day, in case of an emergency of sorts. ]
We might see each other more often if I do that.
no subject
[The implications of having a friendly face around just kinda...passes right on by. It's work, he'll do work things, it will be work with or without Hibiki around.]
