"Happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me~"

The canine hummed as she entered the shop, tails wagging happily behind herself. She was so excited! After all, this only happened once a year. She'd been waiting ages to get her hands on some of these gifts, and the time had finally arrived. She could hardly wait!

"Oh, hi!" she practically squeaked, bouncing up to Briht. "It's my birthday this month! Oh, I mean, of course you know that, why else would I be here, heheheh." She couldn't contain her smile as she chittered nervously. Her mouth always worked faster than her head, especially when she was this excited. She nodded as the charts were pulled out, and took a moment to mull over them before speaking again.

"Uhm, I would like, the Industrial Draculi, please, the Tanuki Tali, and the Phage Hydrolisk." She nodded, as if saying something wise and decisive, before gasping again. "Oh! And one Grab Bag to boot, as well, thank you!" Over-excitable didn't begin to describe, really.

He sleeps alone,
He needs no army where he's headed cause he knows
That they're just ghosts
And they can't hurt him if he can't see them
And I don't know
If in the morning I will be here and if so,
Let it be known
That I was worthy,
I was worthy,
I was worthy,
I was..

Magenta rocketed into the birthday shop humming an appropriate tune. She loved birthdays so much that she probably listened to the happy birthday song on repeat while she slept. She bounced around the shop like a nervous bunny before finally settling on the girl who ran the place. "Oh, good, you're here! Of course you're here, when are you not here?"

"You will not believe whose birthday it is! What? Don't you know? Well, if you don't know I'm not going to ruin the surprise. I'm here to pick up some gifts, like usual." Magenta didn't breathe even once while she was talking, but she did pull out an extremely long list out of nowhere. It left a trail of confetti as it unraveled.

"To start, I'm going to need a Melowockee, a Tanuki Tali, and a Beast Bones. Oh, and six kilos of icing sugar. Sorry no, I mean a Grab Bag."

Gabriel scowled as he stepped into the shop, but his head was held just a little higher than it used to be and he didn't try to shuffle into a corner where he wouldn't be seen. The leather jacket which hung on his shoulders felt like a second skin nowadays, though Lloyd still teased him about the one he wore at Halloween. It had been so perfect that Rheese had insisted on getting him a proper one, and he now walked with a confidence he hadn't had before.

He strode up to the counter and smiled at the shopkeeper, who looked surprised to see him; evidently they didn't get many customers at this time of year, but he hadn't wanted Toxxynne to miss out, even if it was a few days since her actual birthday had passed.

"Good evening", he said pleasantly, pulling a letter from the inside breast pocket of his jacket. "I have a request list here for someone who has recently had a birthday - I do hope you can help me. She would like a Tanzanite Stargoyle, as well as a Tanuki Tali, a Beastbones and an Industrial Draculi. I hope that isn't too much trouble."

Gabriel smiled as he handed over the letter, and watched the shopkeeper stride through the doorway into what he presumed was the back room. He leaned against the counter, and grinned at the thought of Toxxynne's face when she received her gifts - she would be so pleased!

It was that time of the year again, it seemed. She had been born in January, one of those bitter cold months where even the slightest wind would take your breath away. She had been holding her breath right before stepping in to the Birthday Boutique, certainly to keep the wind from stealing it whenever she tried to take a breath. As she steps in, she gives a soft exhale- and then inhales the sweet taste of cookies and cake. As soon as this happens, she hardly manages to keep from choking; honestly she hadn't been expecting such a strong smell!
She is not shy when she reaches the keeper of the Birthday Boutique, but she certainly has a chilly nose and a bit of a shiver from the air outside. "G-greetings. I-I'd like to p-pick up my own birthday gift, if th-that's alright." She shudders a bit again, and then listens for a moment before answering. "I-I'd like a Papillon Fenling, a Chow Sleepyheart, and a Totem Garudor." She pauses for a second, looking at all the options presented her, before remembering- "Oh, and a Garnet Stargoyle! I nearly forgot." She makes a soft grin after this, a bit anxious, mostly about going back out in the cold. "Th-thank you." She's still shivering it seems, but it is less so now.

The two women walked into the shop hand-in-hand.  The cat-like woman of the pair had her hair pulled back in a bun, and the blond-haired woman had hers pulled back into a low ponytail, although she kept reaching back with her free hand to adjust it every now and again.

"You look just fine, Lana," Xyshari reassured her.

"It doesn't feel like I look fine," the Sith rebutted.  "I feel like my hair is going to just fall out of this band at any moment!"

"We'll figure something out for it, all right?" Xyshari said.  "For now, we've got this to take care of," she said, indicating the counter in front of them.

"Ah, of course," Lana said, looking everything over.  "Hm... I think she'd like these ones the best," she said, pointing out three pets to Xyshari, who, in turn, nodded.

"We're here on behalf of SpringsSong," she said.  "For her birthday, we'll be picking up a Totem Garudor, a Valkyrie Yonyuu, and a Chow Sleepyheart.  Ah--and also a Grab Bag, if you please--Spring does enjoy surprises."

Maybe I'm foolish, maybe I'm blind
Thinking I can see through this to see what's behind
Got no way to prove it, so maybe I'm lying
Take a look in the mirror, what do you see
Can you see it clearer, or are you deceived in what you believe?
Don't ask my opinion, don't ask me to lie
Then beg for forgiveness for making you cry
'cause I'm no prophet or Messiah
You should go looking somewhere higher

I'm only human, I make mistakes
I'm only human, I do what I can
I'm only human, that's all it takes to put the blame on me

Don't put the blame on me

While her birthday had technically already passed, it was still the month of her birth. Millie was always eager and excited to see what new things appears here every year. This year it had been especially difficult to choose the items she wanted to take home, but after some careful deliberation, she’d made her choice. Stepping into the boutique, she grinned widely as she looked around. Yep, everything was new and exciting with just a hint of the oldd thrown in. She loved it! “I’d like a papillon fenling, a koolah honeydew, a totem garudor, and the Capricorn zodiac pet please! I think that’s all I can pick, right?”

I love adventurous tales like that. That uplifting feeling that comes from seeing unknown lands and the knowledge that you came across—nothing can replace it! It opens a path from which self-confidence, experience, and important friendships—from the sharing of life or death situations—are born! But hearing it just isn’t the same. I want to create my own magnificent story!



A great adventure!

Chester was running late. He'd fished his pocket watch out of his breast pocket, pressing the case open as he hurried. He was sure he was becoming less and less organised, especially after the unfortunate accident near Christmas. Why was present giving so stressful? Surely, maintaining the illusion of the household having some sort of carefully crafted aesthetic was not worth all of the effort put into it.

Then again, Chester, dressed entirely in black with a grey scarf pulled over the bottom half of his face, was no stranger to maintaining a carefully crafted facade. As he walked, avoiding the patches of ice, there was a slight rattle to his chest, the remainder of some kind of illness. A lingering cold, perhaps?

He pushed open the shop door ten minutes before it was due to close for the evening and strode up to the desk. "Good evening. I'd like to claim a Garnet Stargoyle, a Papillion Fenling, Valkyrie Yonyuu and a Timeless Nyghtmare, if that's quite all right."

It was about time that Eliza got off her butt and payed a visit to this shop already. Her birthday had already come and gone earlier this month. But after having gotten caught up with some other things, she just couldn't seem to find the time to actually come here until now.

Stepping into the shop and making her way to the counter, she had to fight off yet another yawn that tried to creep up on her. She couldn't quite figure out why, but she was very tired today. "Hi there..." It clearly showed too as she tried to greet Briht with a friendly smile. "I'm, ah... here for a Constellation Shinzo, Papillon Fenling, Valkyrie Yonyuu, and Chow Sleepyheart. Thank you."

Oh Raven won't you sing me a happy song

You don't want me to stay alone
That's why you gotta sing your song
You keep tapping at my door
Nevermore, nevermore, nevermore
But can I ask you something
A favor from you my friend
This song you keep singin'
Nevermore, nevermore, nevermore

It was a dark and stormy night, and certainly not anyone's birthday.

Of course it wouldn't be anyone's birthday. It was practically a slight on her honor to even suggest she would be doing something as mundane as delivering someone's birthday presents; you contacted her when you needed something special handled, something dangerous and terrifying that the other Wilsons were unwilling to take on, something important. And then she could proclaim something heroic and inspiring about 'the way of the warrior,' the mail would get delivered, and everyone would get what you want.

Besides, it really wasn't anyone's birthday today. To add insult to injury, she was here to pick up a late birthday present. Ugh. Why even bother at this point? If it were going to late anyways, why not wait another few weeks for another delivery Wilson to be available?

'One Amethyst Stargoyle, please,' she told the counter. Maybe if she didn't make eye contact, she wouldn't have to deal with the shame of being sent on such an awkward errand. 'And a Herald Chimerantula, Koolah Honeydew, and Timeless Nyghtmare as well.'

and if you ask how i regret that parting:
it is like the flowers falling at spring's end
confused, whirled in a tangle.

what is the use of talking, and there is no end of talking,
there is no end of things in the heart.

It was that time of year again, when the kids felt like they could finally give back to their mother. At least for Atlas, this wasn't a new occurrence - however, he'd had to spend a bit of time explaining the concept of birthdays and why they were celebrated to the slightly uncomprehending Goober. Even as they made their way towards the little boutique, the Tali still wasn't entirely sure that he'd managed to successfully convey the concept to the Socross, but Goober seemed excited about the adventure at the least, and that was good enough for now. The understanding would come with time, he was sure; after all, it wasn't as if the Tali would have understood either until after his own birthday had been celebrated for the first time.

The dynamic duo made their way into the little shop and proceeded to spend the next hour or so wandering around and perusing all of the wares available. Atlas's job wasn't just picking out gifts though - he had to ensure that Goober didn't wander off and cause mischief (as he was wont to do), but in due time, they'd settled on a small selection of gifts that would hopefully make mom happy. It took a little finagling, but they eventually managed to convey their order to the shopkeeper (with much gesticulating); Totem Garudor, One Valkyrie Yonyuu, and One Papillon Fenling as well as One Nian Fellox, seeing as it was currently the year of the dog. Satisfied that they'd accomplished what they'd set out to do, the two began their meander back home, more likely than not stopping by a few treat shops along the way.

[If the Nian Fellox isn't available (the list still says Nian Roosken, although it's currently the year of the dog), a grab bag instead would be fine. ^^]

"Mael."

A dark-haired youth picked his head up at the sound of a voice, a brief scowl falling across his features. "What?" he said, not quite testy, but a surly note to his tone all the same. His companion was an older man, whose hair was, if anything, still darker--- the glossy black of a raven's wing, and dressed to match.

He studied the youth for a moment, as if making his mind up about something, then said, "When were you born?"

"Me?" Surprise softened Mael's usual look of annoyance. For a moment, he looked as though he were seriously considering the question. Then, with a shrug, he said, "Don't know. Forgot. The people who kept me didn't know either."

The man, Qual, looked pained by his response, despite the offhanded way that he had said it. "Do you really not remember anything from before you were captured?"

"No."

"Then..." Qual thought for a moment. "We could name today your birthday, if you like. At least until we can find your mother, and..." He trailed off, unsure as to how to finish his sentence.

Mael shrugged again. "Sure. Do what you want," he said.

It was Qual's turn to look surprised. He hadn't expected Mael to acquiesce so easily. "Very well. Come with me, then. There is a place I want to show you..."

[Requesting one Valkyrie Yonyuu, one Timeless Nyghtmare, one Chow Sleepyheart, and an Aquamarine Stargoyle. Also requesting a Papillon Fenling as per staff perk]

He wasn't one for birthday festivities. It was just another day in the year, a simple marker of the passage of time; why should he waste valuable work time on silly parties and sickening sweets? But if the Evelonian Zoo was willing to offer him access to some of their newest discoveries... that was a different matter. The doctor could certainly make time for evaluating new potential test subjects for exploitable features.

An awkwardly short man with curly hair entered the shop. Despite the cheerful music and colorful party supplies, the expression behind the doctor's spectacles remained serious and stoic; his frown may have even deepened a bit. "Good evening," he greeted the young girl, pulling the list of available pets down off the counter and flipping through it. "I am here to claim a Totem Garudor, Ichthy Bandol, and Chow Sleepyheart... and, I suppose a grab bag too." He replaced the list and pulled out his identification, sliding it across the counter. "Thank you for your generosity."

Blinker made his way into the area and looked around with the rather stupid grin he sometimes had on his face. Oye, Ello?" Seeing the girl behind the counter he made his way over and looked at the information available. "I believe Shaetani has sent in her registration? I'd like to pick up a grab bag for her, as well as a Papillon Fenling, Ichthy Bandol and Koolah Honeydew." Of course once he got everything he'd have to go turn in the grab bag but the extra effort seemed worth it. He seriously hoped there was something in there he could use as his tie-dye shop wasn't doing so well. No clue why though... after all, everyone should love the bright brilliant colors of the rainbow.

He wasn't an official scout yet, but it was coming very soon. In the meantime, though, he was more than happy accomplishing some missions for them. This seemed like a good little deed to do, and it was very time-sensitive! So he had to hurry up!

"H-hello!" he greeted with a friendly and cheerful smile, but with a hint of shyness. "I'd like t-t-to pick up some th-th-things, please," he explained, and he handed over a small paper. "Thank you!"

A young man slipped into the shop, the soft sound of the bell clinking as he shut the door behind him. Green eyes glanced around at the various decorations of the shop, bringing a smile to his face. He tightened the ponytail keeping his long hair off his back before making his way towards the counter.

When it was his turn, Riley smiled warmly at the shopkeeper. "Hello. I'm a bit late with this, but I have a friend that's had a birthday recently and I'm picking a few things up for them, if that's alright. If I could get a Emerald Stargoyle, a Totem Garudor, a Papillion Fenling, and a Valkyrie Yonyuu, please, that'd be great.
