Who: Haru and YOU.
Where: Botanical Garden
When: Day 151, mid-afternoon. (I know it's Dec 5th other places, so I forward dated this juuuust a little.)
Open/Closed: Open. Because Haru is inviting everyone to a tea party.

Hello everyone out there. As you may know, there is a garden area on the seventh floor of the apartment building we're all living in. I'm inviting anyone who hears this to come join me for tea. Think of it like a bonding activity? Getting to know someone better that you might have only run into a couple of times?

Or you could just come and help relieve me of all of the tea cakes and cookies I made this morning, it's up to you! Thank you for your time!

[Really, this is just Haru's excuse to celebrate to herself, just a little! It's Haru's birthday today and she feels much better doing something nice for the rest of the coven than just doing something nice for herself! Not that anyone outside her really knows that. Or so she thinks? When characters arrive to the garden they will see several smaller tables set up like this with several warm pots of tea around and plenty of cups! She meant for this to be something where the coven could help themselves.]

Of course. Who would have thought our birthdays weren't really that far apart.

[She giggles just a little.]

I won't be opposed if you wanted to do that.

Truth to be told, I was afraid that we missed your birthday. [ We as coven members excluding everyone from Haru's world. ] And that would be unforgivable. You're giving your all for everyone's sake every day.

[ He might help here and there sometimes, but it's not much. ]

I'm glad you didn't say no.

[ Mostly because she never had a choice in the first place. ]

Hibiki-kun, you know I didn't say because I didn't want to make a big deal out of it.

[She might be a little shy about it! She might just...not know how to celebrate it properly? She never really made it a huge deal to celebrate at home.]

But for you, I won't say no.

Of course. That's just like you.

[ That said, he can't really blame her. Hibiki revealed his own birthday just because he didn't want to lie. ]

Does anybody else know?

I haven't really told anyone else, no.

[She laughs just softly.] Are you planning on giving away my secrets?

I wouldn't dare.

[ Angry Haru isn't Haru Hibiki wants to see. ]

Well, if nobody knows about it...they won't mind if we steal away for a few minutes, right?

I think you could manage to steal me away for a few moments, yes.

[She even puts down what she is doing, instructing her Lizard Child to take over for her so that she can go talk to Uncle Hibiki.]

Where are we going?

Not too far, don't worry.

[ Sorry Lizard Child, he's going to steal your Human Mom for a few minutes. Hibiki stops only when he finds an empty corridor; they don't want anybody to see this, after all! Then, he pulls out a small wrapped box with a flower crown and a set of hair clips. ]

Happy birthday, Haru-san.

Hibiki-kun!

[Her face is very much in awe when she sees it. The gifts that is. She carefully closes the box and actually wraps an arm around Hibiki to hug him.]

Thank you, I really love them.

Oh.

[ Haru catches him off guard, but soon he wraps his arms around her in an embrace as well. ]

I'm glad that you like them, Haru-san. I thought that they'll suit you.

[She feels like she may have just caught Hibiki way off guard. But that's okay. This is how she wished to show her appreciation to him.]

They will suit me well, I promise to get good use out of them.
