A Belated Birthday - video and action options
video
[At least Keith knows how to keep a feed steady on his face. He's had a lot of practice at this. His voice is somewhat hushed, and he is in a darkened room, glancing back over his shoulder before he finally clears his throat and starts to speak.]
It was Lance's birthday on Sunday. And I totally forgot, and I think it might have hurt his feelings. So. [He takes a deep breath, glancing back behind his shoulder again.] I guess I'm going to throw him a late birthday party, so he stops sulking. Please, everyone, I could use some backup here. If you could just show up at the house this afternoon for a few minutes or something, that would be great. You don't have to know us. He'll just be happy to have people paying attention to him.
[There's some noise behind him, and he looks back again before standing up hurriedly and speaking in a hushed voice.] Okay, Keith out.
action
[Keith is pretty sure that Lance is aware that something is up, because he's been running around like a madman setting things up for what he hopes to be at least a decent little gathering. With luck, people have heard the message and will show, and that should help Lance feel a little better. Not that Keith cares, of course. He just wants his roommate to stop making snide comments.
By mid-afternoon, he's managed to set up a table with some food -- of questionable quality, but still edible -- and found a bot to play some music quietly. It's not like any sort of music he's ever heard, honestly, but it'll do the trick for now, hopefully.
Now to wait and pray that someone actually shows. Even better if they bring something with them.]

[He puts his hand out for a shake.]
no subject
[He grips Lance's hand and gives it a good squeeze.]
How old are you now?
no subject
[He squeezes his hand back. Good handshake, buddy!]
no subject
[He releases Lance's hand with an understanding nod. His experience with space is limited, but he can imagine.]
Nineteen is a good number. Still young enough to be dumb and get away with it.
no subject
[He smiles sheepishly.]
Not to kill the mood or anything! But at least here, I can just be young again, which is a definite upside to the whole suddenly-trapped-in-a-different-dimension dealie.
no subject
He returns the smile, his more apologetic.]
Nah, it's cool. Didn't mean to drag up bad memories. I definitely think you should take advantage of being young while you can.

[Nodnod.]

[Technically 20, though he's had a couple birthdays without actually aging.]
Don't worry about me. I try to make the best of every day.
