25 July: It's My Party
Four different kinds of gourmet Macaroni and Cheese. Stacks upon stacks of different finger sandwiches, with the yards worth of crusts used to make a couple of heated trays of bread pudding. A pineapple-banana-pecan cake possibly bigger than the birthday girl herself. A small table of vegan stuff, just in case.

Cindy couldn't stop grinning at it. Had she found awesome caterers or what?

The band specialized in swing covers of hard rock songs, but could play just about anything. There was a dance floor. All her friends from school were there, dressed to the eights.

Of course, all Cindy's friends from school didn't really fill up the little reception hall. And she certainly didn't have a big family. But that was okay, more room for her ~~soon-to-be-colleagues~~ fellow super-brats.

And so she scurried, from arrival to arrival, for cheerful welcomes.

	"That's great. Oh, got a party favor for you." She hands her a small, rolled-up poster print of a neo-classicist painting. "It's called 'Atalanta', apparently. It reminded me a little of Themiscryan things, so I thought you might like it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"I..." Corinna looks surprised. This is one of the nicest gifts she has gotten while in Man's World. The surprise is reflected easily on her face.

"This is quite lovely. It reminds me a little of some of the paintings that we have back home. Thank you. I'm not sure I understand the custom though. I thought you were the only one to get gifts?" Did she forget to get others for everyone else?

"Oh, no, sorry, don't worry, you're good. I'm the only one who gets birthday presents. Party favors are just little presents people get for coming to a party, from the person giving the party. They're not always done, and a lot of people who do just give everyone the same thing, but I, just as personal opinion, think that shows a lack of marketing savvy, so I wanted a better quality of favor for my party. I'm very glad you like it."
