Nina's Birthday Party!! Argentum Residence; Insomnia, Lucis; Eos; All Day Saturday [05//29].

[hashtag_chocobro]

Prompto had been planning for this thing for a while and it was finally time for all his hard work to come to fruition! Nestled among dozens of other similar houses on a quiet residential street, the Argentum house was usually unremarkable, just one among many typical Tokyo Insomnian homes. But today? Oh, today was definitely different! There would be no mistaking which house was Prompto and Nina's! Pink, yellow, and blue balloons were tied to the mailbox, to the fence, even the corners of the eaves on the roof, and streamers of the same color dripped from the roof as well. A large banner reading "HAPPY BIRTHDAY NINA!!" was hung from the wall and could easily be seen from the street, which had been blocked to traffic for the purposes of the party. After all, they didn't exactly have a backyard, so Prompto had commandeered as much space as he could. Where else would he put the bouncy house??? There was also a table with snacks and beverages out there, and a costumed moogle out there to greet guests and occasionally put on a little show. There was a stereo pumping out some fun, festive music into the air, and that was just the outside!

Because the door was open and there was a sign that clearly indicated there was plenty more fun inside and that everyone was welcome to come in, where they'd find more food in the kitchen and dining room, including a very moddable extensive Build Your Own Cupcake Bar and featuring a fruit and macaroon birthday cake as well as a more traditional one, and then, in the living room, the guests would find everything rearranged around a makeshift karaoke stage, because that's right, everyone, there is definitely going to be karaoke at this party!

And just wait until Prompto started getting everyone together for the games!

Look. He'd never really had a stereotypical backyard birthday party growing up, and he knew for a fact that Nina definitely hadn't, either, and so that was absolutely what was happening today! So grab yourself a party hat (unless you're Nina! Then you get a crown!), maybe a few noisemakers and rainbow sparklers, and get ready to have a great time!

[[ OCD is up! Please have at it and come party it up! Emails and messages were sent out to anyone who'd like to receive them, of course! Yay birthday!! ]]

A little bit later in the day (because, of course, he wanted to save the best for last!...or at least for towards the end!), the music outside cut out so that Prompto could make an announcement that in a few minutes, the performance of a lifetime was going to occur and if certain Birthday Having Individuals could make their way to the living room theater, he could promise them that they would not regret it.

And, of course, despite this threat of potentially missing it, he was absolutely going to wait until Nina was present before he, on the stage with Gladio, Ignis, and Noctis, got this started.

"You are going to owe me," he informed Nina into the microphone, "big time, after this!"

And, with that, the lights shifted for the performance, and the music started, and what else was going to happen but them performing a karaoke version of Stand By Me, complete with acapella harmony and full choreography?

And if that wasn't 'boy band' enough for you, Nina, guess what? Turns out it wasn't just the one song, either, as it morphed into something with a little more pop and pep.

Well, first, they were going to take a detour into a Chocobo Song Beatbox Breakdown before getting to the real highlight of the performance.

And if she had any idea what it took to get these guys to do this....! She'd better appreciate it, that's all he was saying!

And everyone else should appreciate it, too, because, damn, they worked hard on this, actually, and their choreography was on point, y'all!
