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.

Lilly looks sympathetic.

"Break-ups are rarely ever completely one person's fault, Indy. I'm sure it wasn't just you."

"Well, we weren't exactly back together. She never could handle the amount of travel I did."

Lilly looks puzzled again.

"Why didn't she just go with you? I would have."

"That's sweet, Lilly. But I work better alone... um... and what I do is kinda dangerous at times. I didn't want to put her in harm's way."

He lifts the brim of the pink flowery hat that came out of the cracker, and scratches at his forehead.

Lilly tries not to giggle, but fails.

"Well, um... *giggle* you do look very... dangerous right now, so I guess I can see the poi- oh, hell." And she collapses into a full on gigglefit.

He gives her a disdainful glare. "It's for the kids!"

"Shouldn't you be setting up the other party or something?"

Lilly nods, still giggling.

"Yes, I should. I'll see you there. Bring the hat!"

She flees amidst the giggles.
