[Open] A Very Kratt-y Birthday

[strengthinkindness]

Who: Anyone and everyone!
What: Celebrating Martin Kratt's birthday!
When: Dec. 23
Where: The Meeting Hall

The night before had been spent getting the decorations up for the party, with Chris and Fluttershy and anyone else who had offered to help while Martin had been sleeping, in order to keep the whole party a surprise for him.

Fluttershy could only hope that all her experiences with Pinkie Pie's parties would help her make sure this one was successful. After all Chris and Martin had done for her recently, helping make Martin's birthday a special one was the least she could do.

((OOC: There are certain places where people can meet, but feel free to post additional threads for mingling! It's a party after all, so have fun!))

[This was it, Twilight's first time going to a party as a human. She was equally excited and nervous. Excited because she was sure that ti would be fun, plus it gave her the chance to see her friends and possibly make some more. But she was also nervous because it was her first human party and while she had gotten the hang of her new body, she was still worried about messing up.

She would wait before getting into the fray, she was never comfortable getting into that kind of thing without at least one of her friends by her side. She so far hadn't seen them. She didn't know if Rarity or Rainbow Dash would be around, but she knew at least Fluttershy was here since she had planned it. So she would wait around the sitting area for now and wait until she saw someone that she recognized.]

[As one of the hosts of the party, Fluttershy had taken to walking around to make sure guests were having a good time. It's during one of these rounds that she spotted Twilight in the sitting area.]

Twilight...!

[most_awkward_human]

[She turned her head at the sound of her name being called, and she instantly perked up.]

Fluttershy, hi! [She walked over] How have you been?

[strengthinkindness]

[When she was close enough, she reached out and embraced her.] I'm all right...I'm sorry I haven't been able to spend a lot of time with you or the others, I've been really busy...

How about you? Have you been adjusting all right?

[most_awkward_human]

[She returns the embrace] It's okay, I've been busy too. It's a busy time of year after all.

I've been good. I've gotten used to my human body and Kudamon has told me all about the Digital World. She said that she doesn't really like parties, so she stayed at the apartment.

[strengthinkindness]

That's good...I'm glad you were able to come!

[most_awkward_human]

So am I. I can't wait to meet those two friends of yours.

[And to thank them for helping Fluttershy after all that she went through.]

[strengthinkindness]

Mm...They...should be here somewhere...

[Come to think of it...where did they get to?]

[most_awkward_human]

Well there's no rush. I can wait to meet them, They're probably enjoying the party right now anyways.

[strengthinkindness]

Mm...I know Chris is helping out with entertaining the guests...and of course Martin is trying to talk to everyone who comes in.

[most_awkward_human]

Wow, they both sound like two split halves of Pinkie Pie. Well it looks like I'll run into them sooner or later, so I'll wait until then

[strengthinkindness]

[She laughs a little.] W-Well, maybe a little...but they're definitely unique in their own way.

I'm sure you will...Have you gotten a chance to walk around and meet people yet?

[most_awkward_human]

I've walked around, yes. I haven't' really talked to anyone though, I wanted to see you first and see if either Rainbow Dash or Rarity would show up. I haven't seen them around yet though

[Mikey was good at noticing people who weren't joining in with things, so he caught sight of Twilight easily. He grabbed a plate of things to eat, trying to be sure to get things that he thought a once pony would like to eat, before heading over and seating himself right next to her.]

Hi there Twilight, it's Mikey, we met over the d-terminals. Do you want something to eat?

[The teen offered her the plate to either take or take something from. He had found food was a good ice breaker with people.]

[most_awkward_human]

Oh, hello Mikey. Umm... sure, thank you.

[She saw a few apple slices, so she took a few of them and munched one one.]

How have you been doing?

[hot_nunchaku_fury]

[Mikey gave her a happy smile, and took another of the Apple slices off the plate to munch on himself.]

I've been getting good, I'm getting ready for the holidays everything.

How are you doing? Are you adjusting well?

[most_awkward_human]

Yes. It's taken me a little while, especially getting used to feet instead of hooves, but I've been doing well since I arrived here/

[hot_nunchaku_fury]

Yeah... I had to get used to the whole five fingers... and no shell, thing. But I'm glad to hear you are doing good.

[most_awkward_human]

Thanks. So do you have any plans for the holidays?

[hot_nunchaku_fury]

I've got... some stuff planned, just a few things really. I don't know how long they'll be so what else I do on days like Christmas all comes down to that.

[most_awkward_human]

Well even just a few things is good. I don't have much planned wither. This is the first time I've ever celebrated Christmas, so I'm still trying to learn a lot about it. Although it's not too terribly different forma holiday in my world...

[hot_nunchaku_fury]

Yeah.

Oh um hearth warming eve... right? I think that's what Fluttershy mentioned. She said it was about all the different ponies coming together to live and work together. Or I think that's what I remember her telling me about it.

[most_awkward_human]

That's the general idea. Long ago Equestria, my world, was divided into three groups: Unicorns, Pegasus, and Earth Ponies. They fought over the land, and it caused a group of creatures called Windigos to freeze the land over because they fed off the negative feelings caused by the conflict. The three lands leaders left to find new land, but they found the same one and argued more, which caused the Windigos to freeze over that land too as well as the three leaders.

The three assistants however realized what was happening, and they were able to become friends. This created the Fire of Friendship, which banished away the Windigos. After sometime everything that was frozen was freed, including the leaders and then the three sides united and formed Equestria. So Hearth's Warming Eve is about the ponies coming together and finding our home.

....umm... sorry, I didn't mean to ramble like that.

[the_lion_roller]

[He may be the birthday boy, but darned if he isn't going to make sure that everybody has fun and feels included at this party.

He's also been meaning to better acquaint himself with Fluttershy's friends, so when he spies Twilight in the sitting area, he's got a grin on his face as he walks over.]

Heh-hey, I remember you! Nice to see you again, Twilight!

[most_awkward_human]

Hmm? [She looked over and smiled] Oh, hello umm... Martin, right? it's nice to see you again. Oh, and happy birthday.
