[Closed-ish] July birthdays!

[robintohood]

Who: All BatFamily members and friends of BatFamily
What: Birthday party for both Tim Drakes
When: July 19th
Where: Central City
Content Warnings: N/A

[Today is both Tim Drakes' birthday. In honor of this, Descendant Karaoke Bar and Lounge is closed for the night for a "private event."

On the ground floor where the bar is and where there's the most open space, most of the tables and chairs have been pushed aside while some have been rearranged to accommodate the party. A taco bar is lined up on one side. Hard and soft shells are available, along with a variety of fillings people can choose to make their own tacos.

A projector screen has been set up in front of the bar, alongside a laptop loaded with a movie library.

The birthday cake is a coffee and chocolate ice cream cake with vanilla frosting. It's safely stashed in the kitchen's fridge until it's time for dessert.

Though this family is absolutely dysfunctional and its members don't all come from the same universe or timeline, they're going to make sure two family members have a good birthday party today. Jackass guilds be damned]

((OOC: Mingle with each other!))

[ everyone has emotional baggage. no one is really exempt from it. ]

I think we'll be fine.

[robintohood]

How long has it been so far?

[torchbearer]

A little over a month, I'd say.

[robintohood]

You helped out with the jailbreak?

[torchbearer]

[ kyle grins. ]

You didn't see my handiwork? I was told not to tear the place down completely, but it's definitely a lot more messed up than it was before.

[robintohood]

[Jason slightly smirks]

Had to stay in Central like a good boy. Shame because it sounds like it was a good party.

[torchbearer]

I don't know about that. I just broke stuff.

[ he would have done worse. and he was sorely tempted. kyle was antsy enough. ]

And he's back. That's all I needed.

[robintohood]

[Oh no. Getting too mushy there]

Yeah, nothing says romance like a prison break.

[torchbearer]

[ kyle raises an eyebrow. ]

And you're an expert now?

[ because kyle's quite sure he's dated way more people than jason ever has. ]

[robintohood]

[Jason snorts]

Don't need to be to know some things.

[torchbearer]

I think the things you know about romance could fill a thimble.

Besides, why would Jay care about traditional romances to begin with?

[robintohood]

Maybe he's a closeted romantic at heart. How much does he like Jane Austen novels?

[Jason's not being serious. It's all teasing and a way to pass the time when not being a host]

[torchbearer]

Oh, he's definitely a closeted romantic.

But I know not to rush these things. Jailbreaks are an acceptable start.

[robintohood]

Right. Eventually you two will have another space adventure date.

[torchbearer]

Space is maybe fourth or fifth date down the line.

[robintohood]

And what? A night flight around the city is second or third?

[torchbearer]

Sorry, can't give away all my trade secrets.

[robintohood]

Awwww. Nothing for the novice then?

[torchbearer]

Bold of you to think you've made novice level.

[robintohood]

[Jason barks out a laugh]

Wow. What the hell is below novice then?

[torchbearer]

Sure there is. The toddler tier.

[robintohood]

You really have been hanging with him too long.

[He's not a fan of getting called "junior" by his older self]

[torchbearer]

Give it time. It's a rite of passage anyway.

[robintohood]

Yeah, I kinda skipped the whole "being awkward with a girl at a high school dance" phase.

[torchbearer]

I mean . . . there's more to it than that.
