2nd Action | BBS | Open

Part of his duties at Wayne Manor was the keeping track of dates. Master Timothy's birthday therefore did not go unnoticed. He had left a small message on the BBS and kept it quite simple. Something simple to suit the lad's tastes. He was taking a two layer chocolate cake out of the oven and now all he had to do was apply frosting and everything would be perfect. Anyone else who wanted to come was welcomed but he at least wanted to make sure that the Family was there.

Meet me in the kitchens after school hours. This is not optional.

You totally remembered didn't you. Did I ever tell you how much I love your photographic memory?

[Like hell Dick would forget Tim's birthday.]

Part of a bulter and a valet's training is the remembrance of important dates. Also I do love a compliment as always.

I should just have you as my planner. [He's kidding by the way. He can definitely remember things himself.] I find it hard to tell whether you're being sarcastic or not.

I'll be around after I finish checking things for my classes. I didn't think I'd ever be teaching classes in my life.

Good. I look forward to seeing you Master Dick. Now if only your brothers were as amiable.

Yeah, well, I was the more willing of the Robins.

I'm sure they'll come. If not for just food.

Must I reeeeally? I bet replacement doesn't even want me there.

Yes, Master Jason, I want you there.

HI THERE! [Yes, she just popped up behind you out of no where. Deal with it.] OOOOOOOH! Is that a cake?! OH GOSH! IS THERE A BIRTHDAY THAT NEEDS CELEBRATING?! [Bouncing so much right now!]

He watches her bounce for a moment before setting a hand down on her head to still her a moment.

"Yes, there is a birthday. We are celebrating it Wayne style."

[Whoa, that works. No bouncing! Pinkie blinks at the hand then to the older man.]

CAN I COME?! I love birthday parties! Or any party, really. And anniversaries. And bat mitzvah parties, and Halloween parties, and...

[She can go on.]

"Well, you must understand it's less than a party but more of a quiet family affair but yes, you may come."

[~~The mun sees what he did there.~~]

OOOOOOH! [Pinkie nods enthusiastically.] I promise to be quiet as a mouse!

Did something happen?

[This is him totally missing the point on this one.]

Yes, you should come as soon as you're able.

I'll be right there, then.

[True to his word, he's there in about fifteen minutes, once he's finished his work on the computer, and finished wiping down everything that let anyone know he was on the computer in the first place; fingerprints and files.

Opening the door to the kitchen, he peeked inside.]

Alfred?

"Right here, lad." He had just finished putting the chocolate frosting, "Happy Birthday, Master Tim."

[Tim blinked, looking at the cake in surprise. His birthday? He'd completely forgotten.]

You remembered my birthday?

[Ninja hug time! Guess who totally just snaked his arms around your waist like a sneaky big brother and clinging to you from behind. Please don't punch him by the way.

He's resting his head on your shoulder.] You forgot your own birthday? Why am I not surprised?

[Jason's grabbed a bowl of cookies and is currently devouring them. It was the only way to make sure he wouldn't tackle the delicious-looking cake.]

How fucking cute. I'm gonna cry. [He mutters between cookie and cookie being engulfed.]

"Yes, I wouldn't forget. If I'm remembering correctly the next one up is Master Jason's." For the moment he ignores the impulse to chide the Red Hood on his language. The old man smiles to see them all gathered around like this. If there was only Bruce, Cassandra, Barbara, and Stephanie, (he knew Damian would come sooner or later) it would be the whole family.

[He's not going to punch Dick, though he won't deny that he was startled; startled by the whole thing, really. He glanced over at Jason and then back at Alfred with a small smile. Hell, even Pinkie Pie gets a smile.]

I don't really keep track of it. [Shrugs slightly.] I should have remembered that Alfred would remember, though.

[He's not letting go until you tell him to either. Just gonna stand there hugging you. He does roll his eyes at Jason though.]

That's counterproductive, if you remembered Alfred remembering, then you'd just remember it for yourself or something.

[Well maybe he doesn't really want to be let go right now. Though maybe in a little bit, once it gets too close to awkward territory and Tim just can't have that.]

No, I mean, I should have remembered that Alfred remembers everything. Not specifically about my birthday.

[Glances back.]

[Will just be here, in the corner. With his arms crossed. Happy Birthday, Drake. He hasn't punched you in the face yet.]

[Jason hasn't punched his face either, it can be a team gift.]

Yeah yeah happy birthday baby bird. Can birthday boy here blow the candles already? I want a piece of that cake.

Alfred had just finished lighting the last of the candles.

"Whenever you're read, Master Timothy."

[You know, this would have been a good birthday if-- well, no, it's a pretty good birthday, regardless. Even if some family members are disliked, it's still family.]

Thank you. [Leans over and blows out the candles. He might have even made a wish somewhere in there.]

[POPS OUT FROM BEHIND ALFRED!]

Oh, it's your birthday?! Happy birthday~! [Gasps and covers her mouth.] Oh no! I don't have a gift for you! [Looks through her pockets frantically.] I have some candy and balloons with me.

Yeah, it's my birthday, apparently. [Laughs; he had completely forgotten.]

It's okay, I don't need any gifts.

[Smiles brightly. But she will give you a gift later!]

How old are you? [Now sucking on a lollipop. Yay more sugar!]

[Oh, that is...such a tricky question, but luckily, not so tricky right now.]

I'm seventeen, now. [Wow he feels old.]

[GAAAAAASP] Me too! Wow! Did you make a birthday wish? EVERYONE makes a birthday wish! I wished for more friends!

No, I didn't make a wish. Wishes don't tend to come true.

Awww! If you WERE to wish for something, what would it be? [Rocking on the heels of her feet. This party is way to still for her.]

[My friends to be alive again.] Maybe world peace.

That's a DOOZY of a wish, Tim! But really kind of you to wish for! What's so bad about wishing for that? Even if it won't come true, maybe someone else will hear it and help!

I'd like to think everyone would help, but I don't count on that.

Pennyworth, you really should be more specific as to who you're speaking to.

Edited 2011-07-20 01:00 (UTC)

I was specific. I adressed it to you, Master Dick, Master Jason, and Master Tim.

What do you need all of us for, anyway?

Edited 2011-07-21 04:11 (UTC)

An important event. There will be cake and a saucer of cream for Dusan.

Pennyworth, this is a public forum. Keep comments like that to yourself.

And I'm really not interested.

It's a family event. It isn't optional.

You aren't the boss of me, Pennyworth.
