CheerMynx Posted March 20, 2008 Report Posted March 20, 2008 CheerMynx hummed a song to herself as she moved around the clutter of Wyvern's office, decorating it with an obnoxious number of streamers and balloons. The song *appeared* to be the one sung by the school children in Alfred Hitchcock's 'The Birds', but it was impossible to tell as the only line the cheerline remembered was "hippity hoppity". The rest was mindless humming. Once finished, CheerLine found a bag full of golden wrapped Easter eggs and began strewing them around until the office practically glittered. Purring contentedly at her work, CheerMynx picked up her basket and sign, adjusted her costume, and after ensuring Snuffles was safe, went to wait outside the office. Peredhil was the first hapless candidate to come across Mynx's alternate personality. The Polite Elder actually successfully passed the cheerline and got a few feet before something misfired in his brain and he paused. Blinking, he turned around and hesitantly approached CheerMynx again. "Hiiiii!" she enthused, posing to show off her costume, which was best described in only two words... Playboy Bunny. Even Snuffles had a pair of matching bunny ears. "So, like, you coming in?" CheerMynx giggled, forcing Peredhil to shake himself to clear his thoughts and read the sign the cheerline was holding. Birthday Party for Wyvie inside! Free Easter eggs! As if to prove the validity of the sign, CheerMynx's basket also held dozens of miniature chocolate eggs. "I like, figured the bunny thing totally fit in with the Easter season, y'know?" she grinned. Peredhil considered the time it would take to explain to CheerMynx the difference between Easter, the Easter Bunny, and a Playboy Bunny. He eventually decided it would be safer to simply take an egg and wait inside for the rest of the guests... OOC: Like, Happy Birthday, Wyvern!
Peredhil Posted March 20, 2008 Report Posted March 20, 2008 Door creaked a greeting to the Polite Ancient Elder happily as he passed inside, pausing to appreciate the decorations and absent-mindedly picking up some of the old food wrappers around Wyvern's desk. Peredhil smile wryly as he looked at Melba, the Almost Secretary's desk and read her neatly written sign. "It's your birthday, you bum. Out chasing Brute so you can try to have a happy one, you lazy womanizing scheming almost dragonic low-life. Love Melba" This promised to be amusing, at the least...
Zadown Posted March 20, 2008 Report Posted March 20, 2008 A scarred hand appears from empty air, attached to nothing visible. It drops a shiny 5-geld coin (made from platinium, adorned with the picture of grinning Wyvern with the motto of "For new schemes!" in latin circling the picture) on the table, a colorful golden ribbon attaching the coin to a Happy Birthday card. It then grabs a chocolate egg and vanishes. OOC: Happy Birthday, Wyvie!
Ciri Posted March 20, 2008 Report Posted March 20, 2008 A series of twelve small origami buds of varying color, each less than two inches tall, float determinedly past the Playboy Cheerline's feet, making their way into the office. Once inside, they discretely plant themselves around the room before blooming. The inside of each flower is streaked with bright yellow the exact color of a freshly minted geld. A goodly distance away, Ciri tucks a few sheets of delicate square paper back into her large bag, dropping one final bud - yellow with a green tail - then shooing it away. Glancing around to make sure no one saw, she makes her way back to the nice, quiet corner she's found. The much larger geld-yellow bud, however, makes its way inside the office and picks a spot on Wyvern's desk, blooming to reveal the words 'Almost Lucky' written on the petals in white, with two large green leaves displaying the words 'Happy Birthday'. -------- OOC - Happy Birthday from me, too!
reverie Posted March 20, 2008 Report Posted March 20, 2008 many happy returns to you on this your special day...
Patrick Posted March 20, 2008 Report Posted March 20, 2008 Happy Birthday Wyvie! Patrick -uninspiredly
Ayshela Posted March 20, 2008 Report Posted March 20, 2008 Ayshela trudges into the Cabaret, tugging behind her a very large gold coloured bag with peculiar shapes nudging up here and there. By the time she's made her way to the semi-cleared space near the back of the room she's breathing heavily. Dropping the top of the bag she sighs with relief and stretches her back and shoulders for a moment before making sure there's proper space for her plans. She reaches into the bag, pulling out a rickety looking folding table and setting it up near the center of the clear space. A quick kick at one leg ensures that it will remain standing, at least for a little bit. "Hurry hurry hurry!" she calls to the crowd. "Today and today only, a special sale on Almost Dragonic Birthday Celebration gear! Don't miss out, this is a limited time offer!" She reaches back into the bag, pulling things out one at a time and setting them around the perimiter of the table. "Getcher Special Cake Repelling Helmet! Only 50 geld ensures that sticky bits of birthday cake will almost never get stuck in your hair. Face plate only an extra 20 geld, and never again will a flaming candle singe your eyebrows! Special earplugs, guaranteed to muffle any off-key birthday songs, today only for 15 geld! Special deluxe lap protectors, also 15 geld! Almost guaranteed to keep stray bits of food from soiling your clothes. Also good for wiping up spills! "And today only, a special giveaway - pink plum cake with grasshopper frosting, and brambleberry punch. Come one, come all, today only!" Ayshela glanced around at the confused faces. With a quick grin she said "Happy Birthday, Wyv!" and slipped out the door. Happy Birthday! Hope it's a grand one!
Wyvern Posted March 22, 2008 Report Posted March 22, 2008 Wyvern pauses in the middle of climbing to his Office window, scratching his horns and taking a moment to contemplate potential counter-marketing strategies. He'd heard word of Ayshela's limited line of birthday products from one of the troglyodyte Almost Report crew, and though he didn't know whose birthday she'd set up for, he wasn't about to let her dominate the market. Judging by the list of her products that the troglyodyte had handed him, the production of an Almost Dragonic Brand Party Favor Stealer Claw was going to be a top priority. Wyvern grunts as he shoves the Office window open, tossing in a few envelopes of mail retrieved from the Tavern of the Quill before shoving his way into the mess of an Office. The overgrown lizard sits up and scoops the mail from the floor, then begins sorting through it absent-mindedly as he continues to brainstorm ways to compete with Ayshela's merch. Almost Dragonic Brand Candle-Lighting Cake-Baking Flamethrowers would be essential, though if she was really marketing Cake Repellent Helmets a smear campaign might be required... The reptilian Elder storms over to his desk, deep in thought, and shoves a few raunchy magazines and golden eggs to the side to set the envelopes in front of him. He takes a seat and begins tapping a claw on the tabletop before doing a double-take and grabbing one of the eggs. Wyvern lifts the egg to his snout to examine it, not bothering to sniff it out as he rides with the notion of pure geld, his eyes widening to gold-rinsing pan proportions. He stammers a bit as his eyes dart from one corner of the glittering Office to another, absorbing the extent of the scattered riches and squinting in the hopes of spotting a golden goose. Wyvern squeals to himself in an excited manner and pounces out of his seat, estimating enough golden eggs to raise the Almost Intern Fashion Fund to a solid 60%. "Wyviiiiiieeeeee!" Wyvern turns as CheerMynx bounds in on cue, his eyes growing wider still at the sight of her skimpy bunny gear. The reptilian Elder gawks and chokes as the cheerline races up to him and embraces him in a huggle, gibbering as the ample cleavage displayed by her outfit presses up against him. He finally breaths when CheerMynx lets go, but pants and sways dizzily as she bends over to pick up a golden egg. The full view of the cheerline's round bunny tail and everything beneath it is enough to make Wyvern consider investing in one of Ayshela's Special Deluxe Lap Protectors, just in case he loses control of himself. "Like, at least try one birthday boy." CheerMynx giggles and unwraps the top of one of the eggs, handing it to Wyvern with a wink. The overgrown lizard's wings droop a bit when he notices that the eggs aren't actual geld, but he smiles and blushes when the nature of the event dawns upon him. He pops the chocolate into his mouth, but almost swallows the entire thing whole as CheerMynx stretches and shows off the finer tailoring of her outfit in the process. Wyvern coughs and clears his throat for a moment, then snatches the shiny 5-geld coin from his desk and turns it in his claws bashfully. "Awww, ya shouldn't have. Thankssss, CheerMynxie and all." :-) OOC: Thanks for the birthday wishes, everyone! I'm honored to have had a thread made for me when so many awesome pennites have gone without proper B-day threads this year, and wanted to let you know that your creative posts and kind words really brightened my day. Thanks a bunch again!
Snypiuer Posted March 22, 2008 Report Posted March 22, 2008 A distant rumbling is heard and Wyvern's office trembles. It seems as if darkness is creeping in. A flash of light and smoke fills the room. When it clears, a single balloon floats in the center of the room with a note tied to a string below it. A weak squeak (like the noise from one of those party noise makers you blow through and it unrolls) is heard as Wyvern reads the note: HAPPY LATE BIRTHDAY!!! (the end is near) Cordially, Snypiuer The balloon pops and dramatic, eery music fills the room - duhduh DUUHHHH!!! http://www.themightypen.net/public/style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif
Venefyxatu Posted March 23, 2008 Report Posted March 23, 2008 "Come on, we're already late!" "Braaaaaiiiiiinsssss" "Don't tell me you're hungry again?? You just ate! Shut up, behave, and remember to be nice and not eat anyone's brains without their permission." "Uuuhhhhh ..." Lurching sounds can be heard as Venefyxatu opens the door and enters the Recruiter's Office, followed by a slowly stumbling zombie. "Hello there, Wyvern! Hope you don't mind I'm a little late, but mister I-couldn't-move-faster-to-get-away-from-a-raging-bull kind of slowed me down. Anyway, I'm here to wish you a by now belated happy birthday and offer you this zombie specifically trained for carrying geld. Just make sure to feed him brains every now and then..." OOC : Belated happy birthday to our resident schemer!
Kikuyu_Black_Paws Posted March 24, 2008 Report Posted March 24, 2008 Kikuyu walked in last minute, glancing around cautiously. She fingered a very sharp looking throwing star behind her back, and her usually happy, if only partially so, expression had been reduced to a quiet, dark expression of non-happiness. She spotted the Almost Dragon standing beside CheerMynx, his fingers twitching compulsively as he chewed on something that appeared to be chocolatey in nature. A semi-normal smile of wickedness curled across the ninja's lips as she took a few more steps forward, her arm bent carefully. Faster than an eye could follow, if anyone had been looking at her anyway, her hand blurred and launched its deadly missile... The throwing star hit the wall just to the side of Wyvern's nose and exploded into a rainbow shower of confetti and mini chocolate kuunai. Some of the confetti landed on Wyvern's nose and stuck there, bobbing ridiculously. Kikuyu straightened and dusted her hands off, her eyebrows raising in satisfaction. "I told you we needed sparkles, Wyv!" >.<
