Ingress's Sixth Birthday Party

*It's eleven o'clock on Saturday morning, thanks to Millitime, and the stage is set for Ingress's birthday out by the lake. The House of Arch family has gathered around a perfect picnic spot under a tree. Right beside them is a playground Tom has conjured just for the occaision. There is a swingset, a slide, a merry go round, and a sandbox charmed with sand that's perfect for building.

Ingress is wearing a gown fit for a princess. It has been charmed against stains and ripping just for this special day. She is also wearing a blinking button which reads "I am 6!" She is very, very, very excited.

Tom, Door, Gavroche, and Megwyn are putting finishing decorating touches on the picnic tables set up with a gigantic cake, gallons of ice cream from Florean Fontescue's ice cream parlor, and punch. There is also a table with baskets of wizarding crackers. These are gifts for the guests - once the crackers are popped, the recipient will get a hat of some kind (maybe there will be a plethora of pirate hats!) and a wizarding toy or game like chess or gobstones. Or whatever else you'd like - the guest gets to decide!

There are several chairs under the tree as well, providing a good view of the playground.

Come, birthday with them!*

OOC: Summary forthcoming. However, very important (and menacing) Barty and Tom thread within.

Faith beams, hugging her.

"Yeah, and see, you can change how hard it is...so you can't outgrow it, you can use it always."

"Thank you!"

Faith plucks out one of the crackers, offering Ingress one end. "Pull it with me?"

Faith laughs at the confetti - because how can you not laugh at confetti, really?

But the ruffly, girly (PINK) bonnett that emerges, as well as the board game which is obviously the wizarding variant of 'Pretty Pretty Princess,' stops the laughter.

"...oh sh...oot."

"...of course I will."

Faith's soul is screaming. You can't hear it, but it is.

Oh, Ingress.

The mighty Slayer is powerless in the face of your cute.

Watch her melt.

"I'm glad you like it, honey." She hugs Ingress, patting her back. "You'll be the best Herald ever."

Faith smiles and nods, tucking a strand of hair behind Ingress' ear. "We'll try. It'll be hard, but we'll try."

Faith laughs and lets herself be dragged along.
