[open] Birthday Party Extravaganza for (1) Campbell Saunders

[eatmybow]

Who: Maya, Cam, and the rest of ya'll.
What: A BIRTHDAY PARTY EXTRAVAGANZA okay no it's not an extravaganza, it's actually just a party for Cam's birthday.
When: December 5th.
Where: Cafeteria area.


At ridiculous o'clock on the morning of December 5th, Maya enlisted Hyokomon and Strabimon to help her tape invitations on anyone and everyone's door. All of the invitations were hand-written, although they seemed to be in three or four different handwritings, and they all said exactly the same thing:

YOU'RE INVITED TO CAM'S BIRTHDAY PARTY
TODAY AT 1PM IN THE CAFETERIA

In retrospect, there were definitely easier ways of inviting the whole city to a party but Maya didn't care. This way meant that only dedicated people would show up to the party. Maybe. That was Maya's hope, anyway. She didn't usually mind being around people, but the fact that she was performing a song she'd written for Cam was kind of. Embarrassing. She'd done it before, at Battle of the Bands, but that had been decidedly less personal than "Jersey Boy." As in "the song she never showed to anyone."

Most of the party preparations had been handled by Neku, because funnily enough freshman band geeks don't plan that many parties, and Maya was eternally grateful to him for it. Mostly because she'd been working nonstop on the stupid song and there wouldn't be much of a party if she'd had to plan it. If her plan failed miserably, then at least there was food. And probably the people here were less gossipy than the kids at Degrassi, so the whole city wouldn't know she'd made a fool of herself.

A girl could hope, right?

He's not going to comment on Kaldur's worries; mostly this is because Cam doesn't know how to assure him otherwise. He's not good at that, reassuring people. Not when he knows nothing of what he's really talking about, and even then having common ground doesn't guarantee he can fix a problem.

Still, he cracks a smile. "Well, you act old enough, so I bet you can. Much more grown-up than like...half the guys I went to school with."

"I've been told that before. I imagine it has something to do with cultural differences, but thank you." After all, Atlanteans serve in the military at a young age and he'd been going to the Conservatory of Sorcery for a year or so before he'd even taken up under his king.

Cultural differences. Cam just nods along, with a tiny smirk. "So, what, if you count it, you'd be 19 or something?"

Kaldur finds himself smirking slightly. "Actually 17," apparently he had come off as much older than originally thought. It was still kind of amusing though and probably not the first time to happen to him either.

Cam's mouth drops open. "No way. Dude, there is no way you're only a year older than me."

This time Kaldur doesn't even try to hide his amusement. "I don't exactly have a driver's license to prove it...but I assure you that is my age." Kaldur was from a place that didn't really have automobiles. He lived under the ocean after all, they didn't need cars.

"Guess superheroes mature faster than normal kids," he says with a surprised smile.
