video; party planning

[shiro2hero]

[Guess who is striking a pose in front of his house in Sevii Islands? That's right, it's Shiro. Sporting his usual beach attire of a horrible, loud, Alolan shirt. But hey! At least he looks well-rested and happy, right? His Umbreon sits at his feet, waving her tail for the camera.]

Hey, so, we've got a lot to celebrate in this house, coming up. A couple birthdays, at least one arrival anniversary...

I don't know who remembers last year, when our house hosted a bonfire party. But, looking at the calendar, I think we're due for another one. We live on the beach, we're out in Sevii, we might as well make use of the space, right?

I'm thinking next weekend. We'll make a real party out of it -- fire, food, music. That kind of thing.

[There's a pause, and his Umbreon regards him with the most skeptical look an Umbreon can possibly give a man.]

... don't worry, I won't be the one cooking.

So, what do you all say? You in?

Is this going to be a WEDDING bonfire?

[Jean asks the important questions.]

[shiro2hero]

... No, Jean. No it's not.

[notvaljean]

Whaaaat? Why not? When are we doing that bonfire?

[Did Jean just assume Shiro's wedding is going to end in a bonfire? Yes, yes he did.]

[schachmeister]

Thank god.

[Murmured in response to Shiro's comment about not cooking anything. Listen, Armin still remember that pasta salad from the last time, okay? It had been a curse upon the world that should not have been allowed to exist. He doesn't need a repeat of that.]

I'll be there, of course. I should be able to sleep on my boat then too, so my old room can be used for any guests that need a place to stay the night.

[shiro2hero]

[Yeah he's just going to pretend he didn't hear that. He knows, Armin. He knows.]

Your boat's running all right? That's great.

And thanks -- I don't know who might, but having the option is welcome.

[schachmeister]

It needs some work still, but that is mostly cosmetic. The engine and everything else is working fine.

[a_sin_for_him]

A bounty of good fortune? How lucky for you. It feels as though there hasn't been enough of that.

[Or maybe Lust is just biased, with so much of her family having been lost over the year.]

[shiro2hero]

We really, really are lucky. No arguments there.

[He pauses, regarding her video.] You're welcome here, too, if you want.

[a_sin_for_him]

I hope the trend continues.

Thank you. Perhaps if I find myself in the area. It's a bit out of my way.

But summer is the time for travel.

[icecastlemadonna]

I'm in! If there are birthdays, of course we have to celebrate those.

[Not to mention Yuuko's own arrival anniversary passed not too long ago.]

[shiro2hero]

Yeah, there are.

Lance and Sasha, actually.

[lordofthefries]

[She's still no party animal even if hers is one of the mentioned birthdays, so Sasha's concern only lies within one thing:]

Will you be making that noodle stuff again?

[shiro2hero]

... Did you want me to?

[That is definitely the opposite of what he usually hears.]

[thegreenhornet]

You're gonna get like fifty people to go.

[Britt sure would like to go to a party]

[shiro2hero]

Well, the people we're celebrating deserve it. Plus, we have the whole beach to use.

[And as long as no one plays "never have I ever" again, it should be fine.]

[marmoron]

[Shiro what even is this shirt.... Keith isn't going to comment, but it's probably a little obvious what the amused look on his face is about here. That aside. It's nice to see that Shiro really does have what appears to be a great life that he's settled into here.]

Not really fond of big parties, but if you need a hand with setting stuff up, let me know.

[shiro2hero]

[Don't judge him, Keith, it's comfortable.]

I promise it'll end better than the one at the Castle did. But, I don't think anyone would blame you if you needed to duck out.

Waking up here is a big adjustment.

[tookashirototheknee]

... oh.

I could bring a telescope home, maybe.

[Thanks for not telling your fiance you're inviting people over, Shiro.]

[shiro2hero]

...

[WELLP. Looks like he's going to be couch surfing for a while.]

I forgot... to bring this up. Didn't I.

[forsaintcecilia]

Heck yeah! Beach party! It's not summer without one! Oh, can there be watermelon? I need watermelon!

[shiro2hero]

Sure thing.

That, at least, I'm pretty sure I can't screw up.

[haveyouseenalittlegirl]

It's been an entire year since the bonfire party?

[He's only half joking. Time sure goes quickly.]

I think I owe my team some time away from the city at this point.

Video

[shiro2hero]

Just about. Next month is... I think it's my own arrival anniversary. I thought one big party would cover just about everything.

[He grins, nodding.]

You're more than welcome out here, Harry.

Glad you're looking happier. Good luck with the party, and enjoy your time with everyone.

You know the invitation applies to you too, right, Annie?
