THEY SAY IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY

[lunch_ticket_millionaire]

Who: Everyone in Prospero!
What: Issei's birthday party
When: The evening of Saturday, March 3rd
Where: The entire karaoke parlor.  Sakurako rented the whole thing out for everybody.
Warnings: Probably none, but who the hell knows!

[Well, it's Saturday night, and as promised, Sakurako has spent the entire week calling and texting every citizen of Prospero she could get a hold of in preparation for Issei's 18th birthday party.  The entire karaoke parlor is rented out, including the larger rooms.  Drinks both alcoholic and non-alcoholic are included, and everyone is free to mingle as they wish.]

KARAOKE

[lunch_ticket_millionaire]

[All of the rooms are open, and people are free to come and go as they please. The karaoke parlor has an impressive array of songs from both America and Japan, including most of the popular hits of the past 50 years. Refreshments are regularly restocked every half hour or so.]

GENERAL SOCIALIZING

[lunch_ticket_millionaire]

[Inevitably, there'll be some rooms where no one is singing anything, and that's fine too! Come in here to just sit down and have a nice chat with your fellow Prospero kidnappees.]

BIRTHDAY PRESENTS

[lunch_ticket_millionaire]

[There's also a table near one of the rooms where everyone can set down their gifts, or give them to Issei directly. Because you totally brought a gift, right? Of course you did.]

[Help, there's a big party and it's dedicated to me.

Issei looks a bit overwhelmed. Bother?]

[lunch_ticket_millionaire]

Hi, Issei! Happy birthday! Everything turned out really great, don't you think?

[assaultedramen]

[Of course she bought a present! Miki is placing down a vaguely bowl shaped mass of newspaper and tape down on the table.]

[unknownrival]

Ah, yes, all the preparations turned out well.

[unknownrival]

It's a bowl?

[lunch_ticket_millionaire]

I told you there'd be nothing to worry about! So make sure to get in there and have lots of fun tonight, birthday boy!

[She winks and gives him a big congratulatory slap on the back.]

[assaultedramen]

I'm not gonna tell you. You'll have to wait till you open it!

[unknownrival]

That's fair enough. Thank you, Onimaru.

[unknownrival]

Thanks...

[Physical contact with random girls.]

[lunch_ticket_millionaire]

I brought you a present, too! I left it over on the table.

[It's all wrapped up right now, but when he gets it home later, it's a stuffed lucky cat.]

[unknownrival]

Thank you very much. You didn't have to.

[lunch_ticket_millionaire]

But it's your birthday!

[unknownrival]

Your present could have been the organizing of the party.

[assaultedramen]

Aww, just Miki. I've never gone by Onimaru.

[unknownrival]

Do I have to?

[lunch_ticket_millionaire]

Don't worry about it, it's no big deal.

[unknownrival]

I won't complain too much.

[lunch_ticket_millionaire]

Yup! Just have fun, that's all I need.

[assaultedramen]

If it really makes you uncomfortable. Neither me or my mom go by our family name, it just feels weird.

Anyway, you're welcome for the bowl.

[unknownrival]

I don't call very many people by first name.

...Hm, maybe I should get to singing.

[unknownrival]

I'll do my best.

[assaultedramen]

That does like fun. Happy Birthday!
