Birthday Hogs

WHO: Hedgehaus and friends
WHAT: Birthday Party
WHEN: Hedgehog Birthday Weekend
WHERE: Hedgehaus
WARNINGS: A stupid amount of chili dogs. PROBABLY FEELINGS? Listen, some people have personhood issues. Maybe Boomdow.


Sonic new it was around his Birthday. Vaguely. Move around planets enough and its hard to track the date, he had a birthday not too far from when he arrived on Earth. So the BEarthday was very fitting. And, well, Shadow woke up from cyro the same day or day after, so Sonic figured he could share it with his Shadow.

But also explaining that to people would be weird, and telling WAY too much, and also Primedow and SonIDW had their birthdays around the same time and that's why the banners say Birthday.

Sonic was nothing, if not stupidly sentimental. He knew he was throwing a party for his Shadow because he deserved it and well, he isn't going to just ignore the others. Maybe talk about a week of celebration or something for next year.

The beauty of superspeed though is he can set up a party FAST. He just has to make sure Big Blue is busy upstairs for a few minutes and BOOM, party is set up.

First and foremost, the party is an explosion of color. Why? Sonic promised Primedow and SonIDW pride flags and he delivered. There are rainbows and all sorts of other flags scattered across the yard, on the walls, and over the first floor. He's even got balloons over pride flag colors.

There was a banner that said 'HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHADOWS AND SONICS!' Hand painted, so its a bit messy, and made with blue, red, and black.

There is SO much food. Most of it is cake and chilidogs. Mostly because Sonic knows how much Sonics can pack away, and other people should get to enjoy these foods. There is even a variety in the cake flavors! Chocolate, white, strawberry, even lemon.

There is also coffee beans. Just....just straight coffee beans.

And some chocolate covered espresso beans, and Tiramisu. Less of that, but still plenty. And burgers for those who think hotdogs are beneath them or something.

There is also fruit salad, and guacamole with chips for those who want something kind of healthy.

There is a table labeled GIFTs and a sign. 'Be sure you indicate WHICH Shadow or Sonic. Fluffy are the younger ones.'

The party activities are scattered in the yard and the first floor of the house. Its nothing too over the top, beyond the color explosion. There is music for outside hanging out, some dancing. There is also a television for people to play video games on. (There will be DDR at some point, thanks Eva.)

Inside, there is a large stack of DVDs to watch movies inside.

There are board games on the dining room table for people to play those.

There is also a sign at the stairs to the second floor. 'RESIDENTS ONLY. If someone is upstairs, you leave them alone, even if they're one of the Birthday Boys! Any non-resident attempting to go upstairs if not accompanied by a resident will be swiftly removed.' (He figures he should account for social batteries. Especially for his Shadow and Maria. Sometimes you need a space to retreat away from people.)

((Feel free to mingle!!!))

...

[Give him a minute, gotta turn that over in his mind for a moment or two.]

... Y'know, when Miss Rinku talked 'bout that kinda thing, I didn't think they gonna be your birthday parties...
I kinda thought it was just a thing you did - like, "yeah, Eveé just does that sometimes, makes sense."

[But at least that makes it clear he was rolling with it and accepting it as "ah, that's my girlfriend" rather than anything else...??]

Don't matter though - I'd still go. 'N hell, it ain't like you don't got other rooms I could go hide in if I needed to, ouais?
abnormalizes: positive blush (it's the right time)

[personal profile] abnormalizes 2025-06-24 08:49 pm (UTC)(link)
This year Rinku made me have two birthday parties so that the rest of my friends could still celebrate me. But the year before, it was just the sexy one.

[Sheepish.]

I definitely have quiet rooms marked and available, though. Those are important.
fauxbot: (unhelmeted, embarrassed) (📺↮43)

[personal profile] fauxbot 2025-06-24 08:52 pm (UTC)(link)
- Wait, this year? I already missed it?
When is it??

[Said with a VERY obvious pout, of course. Of all the things his face is capable of, pouting is one of the most prominent.
Considering it's basically just his usual expression, but More™.]
abnormalizes: neutral blush (or at least I can't remember it)

[personal profile] abnormalizes 2025-06-24 08:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh - my birthday's Valentine's Day? Sorry, I thought I mentioned that, I must've forgot.
fauxbot: (unhelmeted, sad) (📺↮72)

[personal profile] fauxbot 2025-06-24 08:59 pm (UTC)(link)
All the way back in February, even...! Ain't just missed it, but I missed it by four months...!

Ah, j'ai gros coeur... can't getcha back for that birthday gift 'til next year...!

[He's getting dramatic about it, now - even clutching his chest and leaning tothe side a little as he whines about this.
All the goofy, intentionally-played-up drama's a good sign that he's very comfortable around her, though, so at least there's that?]
abnormalizes: neutral (you've got me questioning things)

[personal profile] abnormalizes 2025-06-24 09:03 pm (UTC)(link)
You can get me something for Christmas! You'll survive somehow.

[Giving him a shoulder squeeze.]

...Besides, it's not like I haven't given you gifts for no occasion, anyway.
fauxbot: (unhelmeted, sad) (📺↮89)

[personal profile] fauxbot 2025-06-24 09:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[Nope, she's squeezed his shoulder, that means he's gotta be dramatic in her direction instead!
Which means leaning on her, of course. To be annoying. He's being annoying on purpose.
Boyfriend privileges.]


But it ain't the same if it ain't your birthday! ... 'N this means I gotta wait a whole year 'til you hold another one o' them parties, too!
abnormalizes: neutral blush ((the girl's a super freak))

[personal profile] abnormalizes 2025-06-24 09:07 pm (UTC)(link)
[Joke's on him, she like it when he leans on her-]

I'm sure somebody else will hold something at some point...?
fauxbot: (unhelmeted, sad) (📺↮89)

[personal profile] fauxbot 2025-06-24 09:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[Jokes on her, that means she's getting leaned on MORE-
get squished nerd]


But then it ain't your party! It ain't gonna have the right vibe - your vibe!
abnormalizes: negative (the way I like it don't knock it)

[personal profile] abnormalizes 2025-06-24 09:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[she is become flat]

I feel like me throwing one sex party a year is probably enough...
fauxbot: (unhelmeted, interest) (📺↮30)

[personal profile] fauxbot 2025-06-24 09:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[She's very flat, it's true. And now she's getting hugged on top of it all.
The tragedy.]


... Ouais, yeah, I guess you right. But, eh...
I dunno - what 'bout Halloween? Halloween's usually a good time for that kinda thing.
abnormalizes: neutral blush ((the girl's a super freak))

[personal profile] abnormalizes 2025-06-24 09:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[Being squished by her giant boyfriend, she may just die. What a way to go.]

-Halloween's definitely a good time for being indulgent. I could maybe ask around? Luci might be doing something, I think he was mentioning something with sins...
fauxbot: (unhelmeted, neutral) (📺↮40)

[personal profile] fauxbot 2025-06-24 09:57 pm (UTC)(link)
But then it wouldn't be your party...

[It's whined (again), but he also sounds like he's giving up on that part of the whole thing, too.
Mostly because he's coming back out of "teasing the girlfriend" mode.]


... Who's Luci?
abnormalizes: neutral (she's all right she's all right)

[personal profile] abnormalizes 2025-06-24 10:48 pm (UTC)(link)
You can still come to mine in February!

-Oh, Lucifer. The devil. Have you met?

[Asked as casually as if she were inquiring if he knew any of her other friends, of course.]
fauxbot: (unhelmeted, embarrassed) (📺↮43)

[personal profile] fauxbot 2025-06-24 10:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[-- Yeah, he is pulling back way far at that, if only so he can look at her incredulously.
As incredulously as he can, anyway, considering. You know. His face.]


Wh- no?? I ain't met the devil, no!
You tellin' me he's here? Just... millin' 'round Ellipsa like it ain't no big deal?

[Conversely to Evangeline being nice and casual about it, Chipp's going pale...]
abnormalizes: neutral blush ((the girl's a super freak))

[personal profile] abnormalizes 2025-06-24 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[Something that freaks Chipp out? ...Besides nightmares and birds? Honestly baffling.]

Yeah, of course? We're friends.
fauxbot: (unhelmeted, annoyed) (📺↮107)

[personal profile] fauxbot 2025-06-24 11:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[Aaand now he's gotta look away for a moment, hands balling into fists like he has a lot of things he'd REALLY like to say, but he knows he should absolutely not say them -
Then he takes in a big breath.
Holds it.
And lets it out again, nice and slow, looking toward Evangeline again.]


I... do not know what the devil runnin' 'round Ellipsa's like, so I'ma give'im the benefit of the doubt, here -
If he someone you'd wanna be friends with, then I definitely... gonna give'im the benefit of the doubt.
I trust you 'n your judgement. Just wanna make that real clear - I trust ya with that.

But... y'know what he's supposed to be like, right? In other worlds, at least?
abnormalizes: neutral (she's all right she's all right)

[personal profile] abnormalizes 2025-06-24 11:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Well… ‘guy whose job it is to torture dead people forever,’ I guess? I don’t have a lot of specifics and I haven’t met my world’s equivalent.

[Unlike her world’s Christ allegory who she very much has met.]
fauxbot: (unhelmeted, annoyed) (📺↮69)

[personal profile] fauxbot 2025-06-24 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[At that, he nods.]

Mm. If ya wanna get specific... he tortures the folks who done bad things while they were alive.
I, uh... I thought for sure 's where I was gonna end up when I died, me. I still dunno why I ain't.

[If that helps her understand why this is also kind of... personal for him, of course.]

More than that, though -
In my world, at least, he's the one who tries to make people do bad shit in the first place. "Tempts"'em into doin' it. Y'know?

And I mean all bad shit. Not just "I had to do somethin' bad 'cause it was my only option", like the shit I done.
Like, ehh...

[Thinking, thinking...]

Okay. This gonna be an extreme way to put this. Sayin' sorry 'fore I do, 'cause I know it ain't gonna sound great.
But if my world were like your world... he'd be the one who helped make it get that way in the first place.

... Well -
The version of'im in my world, anyhow. Like I say... I'll give the one here a chance.
abnormalizes: negative (and I'm not faint of heart)

[personal profile] abnormalizes 2025-06-24 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh. Okay, that makes more sense. But also, like… this Lucifer runs a hotel for self-improvement in Dayrise? Like actual self-improvement, not a tempting long con. I’ve gotten therapy there, it’s nice. It was his daughter’s idea, he loves her more than anything. -When the lights were out and criminals were on the streets, it was a safehouse. Mary and Mecchan and Hina stayed there so that Rinku could go help people, and he fought to keep them and all the other civilians there safe.

The Lucy I know… okay, yeah, enjoys indulging in lust and gluttony - I should really get that mug cake recipe from him - and wrath when people piss him off by hurting his loved ones. But I haven’t seen him make anyone a worse person, or tempted them into the kind of things that hurt innocent people.

[Evangeline pauses, trying to put her words in order.]

I don’t know if you could call him a good person, but he’s been a really good friend.
fauxbot: (unhelmeted, neutral) (📺↮10)

[personal profile] fauxbot 2025-06-24 11:55 pm (UTC)(link)
- Wait, that was him with the hotel? I almost took someone there for safety... but ended up changin' my mind last minute 'cause I needed to be back in the shed.

[In case he unravelled. He did not want to unravel somewhere where he doesn't know anyone.
Thankfully, that ended up not happening (and he then ended up dying anyway, thanks Ezra), but still.]


Awright... yeah. I already said I'll give'im a chance, 'course, but...
He don't sound nothin' like the devil back in my world at all.

I mean, hell -
Think 'bout how Grim Reapers are, right? Big 'n strong like me, not all that fearless? Shit like that.
The others're so scared o' me, they call me "the Devil".

... If that tells ya how bad the one back in my world is, I mean. Other Reapers can't think of anything scarier to call me.

But, uh -

[A pause, rubbing his nose as a sort of way to break up his thoughts.]

- I'll... meet'im. If ya want me to.
Only if you there with me, though.
abnormalizes: neutral blush ((the girl's a super freak))

[personal profile] abnormalizes 2025-06-25 12:01 am (UTC)(link)
If you want to meet him, I’ll introduce you. If you don’t, that’s okay, you don’t have to. It’s up to you.

[She takes his hand to squeeze.]

I just want you to be comfortable and happy, that’s the most important thing.
fauxbot: (unhelmeted, happy) (📺↮86)

[personal profile] fauxbot 2025-06-25 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I mean - he's a good friend o' yours, ain't he?
I oughtta meet him if only 'cause o' that... what kinda boyfriend would I be if I didn't?

[She's getting her hand squeezed in return, though he's also going to lean on her again -
More seriously, this time. Snuggly.]


... 'S a good thing my memère can't hear 'bout it, though - I think she'd wring my neck if she knew I was out makin' the veiller with the devil, of all people.
abnormalizes: positive blush (it's the right time)

[personal profile] abnormalizes 2025-06-25 12:21 am (UTC)(link)
I’ll see if he wants to hang out all together sometime.

It could be worse! You could have met WhiteNight, I think that’d be a way bigger issue, religiously. Like, how do you feel about my local Christ allegory Abnormality being a weird baby that brainwashes and transforms its disciples. And “liberates mortals from suffering”.

[Making visible air quotes.]
fauxbot: (unhelmeted, annoyed) (📺↮110)

[personal profile] fauxbot 2025-06-25 12:40 am (UTC)(link)
[-- Okay, yeah, that balled fists thing he did earlier?
He's now going to do something similar, leaning away and clasping his hands together in front of his face as he takes in another big ol' breath.]


... You sayin' that thing a Christ "allegory" for a reason, ain'tcha?

oh just cw casual blasphemy
