[Good afternoon, Tower. Eikichi is standing in front of the terminal's camera, grinning from ear to ear and looking quite proud of himself. In fact you might say he looks unusually energized.]

HOOOOOOOOOOO!

Is this thing on...okay it is.

Inhabitants of this stone tower! I, the beautiful, amazing, great, quick-thinking Michel have a proposition for next week. As it so happens that it was the birthday of someone special two days ago, I realized she needs a proper celebration! And considering there hasn't been a good party around here lately, the solution is simple; a proper birthday bash, not just for our bella dama who will be our guest of honor, but also for anyone who hasn't had a proper birthday for the past months.

And as exceptional as he is, Michel can't do this alone! I can help with the decorations and the music, but I know the tower is filled with considerable talent! Chefs! Decorators! Even a few musicians who might have slipped from Michel's grasp when he didn't notice you...reveal yourselves to me so that we may make this the best bash ever!

And...turn that frown upside down! Michel isn't going to stand for it any longer!

Times have been hard and difficult, that's true, but if we don't get a little joy in our lives, we'll just like this place drag us down with it. I'll have none of that and neither should you! As a certain someone I admire would say, 'Let's Positive Thinking!'

So go on, find a mirror, look at yourself and say "I look great today!".

Don't worry I'll be waiting.

[He crosses his arms with a smirk plastered on his face and waits for a full eight seconds before continuing.]

Now that you're all energized and ready to do this...there's more!

It's not just a birthday party and way to cheer everyone up, if you can, bring that lovely lady or the handsome guy! Come as a couple as there will be a competition to crown the lord and lady of the evening! And don't worry, Michel's a very fair man. As much as he knows he's the only true king around, he'll let someone else enjoy it for that night.

So put on your best!

Oh, no date you say? That's not a problem! Do the words Blind Date have any meaning to you? Send me your name -- don't worry Michel won't share -- and he'll set you up with all the others who don't have one. Considering our beautiful chica population lower, you may end up with another guy! But don't worry, a date doesn't mean you need to kiss at all...who knows, you might end up with a new friend! Michel's certain everyone will have a good time regardless! And who knows...you might find true love and you'll have me to be thankful for!

....I know, I know, how can someone like me exist? Sometimes I wonder that too.

So, who's with me?!

[Look at that grin. Look at that face. Look at all this wild energy. Surely it must stir something within you for that...right to fight for your party...]

[As private as Eikichi can make it to the rest of the team members minus Maya]

Jun, you're in charge of making her a proper birthday bouquet. Miyabi, you want to make her a cake? Tatsuya, Lisa...help me find her some presents? If we have to make 'em I don't care.

And everyone's coming to the music room with me! I've been inspired to write her a birthday song and I'll need everyone's help!

[OH GODS WHYYYY NO EIKICHI NOOOO...]

[nodeviations]

...so, you're just as obnoxious in real life as your text conveyed before.

Impressive.

[deathboss]

[Yeah yeah yeah whatever dude.]

What? Don't you like having a little fun once in a while? No worries, Michel understands if you'd rather just complain and stay in your room.

[hero_of_smiles]

Someone's birthday was two days ago? And they didn't get a party? Well that's no fun! Everyone should have a celebration on their birthday! So yeah, I'll help out! A hero does anything he can to make others smile! But what's a blind date? Can I have one?

[No concept of dating or romance here folks.]

1/2

[deathboss]

You're serious? You don't know what a date is?

video | private as she can make it, kthx

[kamikozy]

I can go see if there's anything good to bake with in the kitchen soon but first...

I've missed you, Eikichi-kun.

Eikichi is not as good however.

[deathboss]

Heh heh...Babe...Miyabi I...I missed you a lot too.

The last few weeks without you here I just...I missed you a lot.

[anon & locked]

[beknightedheroine]

I got a name for you.

Lina Inverse.

And long as there's food, she I'll be there.

[anon & locked]

[deathboss]

Alright chica, since I already know you, Michel will make sure you end up with the guy of your dreams!

[Video]

[alwaysataclimax]

On one hand, I can't help but think this is stupid.

On the other hand...guess we do need something positive to keep us from goin' totally nuts.

[Video]

[deathboss]

You sure said it, not demon bro!

[Cause he forgot what you were called, but he does remember you saying you were not a demon so...progress?]

[video]

[adam_and]

[It takes him a minute, but eventually Sho manages to grasp the concept of Video and send one of his own. Ignoring there's a degree of lag as he stares with intrigue at the terminal.]

Oh- sorry!

[Okay, after reeling back, Sho pries his comp off of his head and lets it dangle around his neck.]

Parties? I...wasn't aware they were still possible, after the end of the world. Most haven't seemed very...perceptive to it, what with demons an' all.

How're you gonna keep the monsters out? D'you need help with that? [WHAT IS RELAXING, LET ME HELP DEFEND YOU GUYS]

[video]

[deathboss]

[What.]

...what?! You seriously worried that there's gonna be monsters invading the party? I know there's a bunch of 'em here but they won't show up in the top room especially with all of us here!

[anon & locked again]

[beknightedheroine]

Homura Akemi. I'm very busy, so the event may slip my mind. Please call me out if that happens.

[Good job]

[deathboss]

No problem chica! Michel will make sure that you do!

[anon & locked AGAIN]

[beknightedheroine]

Riku.

_{[Sorry, Keyku, she couldn't come up with anything interesting to support this message being your speech patterns. NOT ALL OF THEM ARE WINNERS.]}

[Haha oh god]

[deathboss]

...uh...hello?

Is this for the blind date?

[anon+locked]

[nodeviations]

[He could have responded to Eikichi, but he's just not going to bother. He has a better use of his time, anyway.]

Sayaka Miki! You'd be a good judge for a date, right? I'll trust your judgement! ( ´ ▽ ` )ﾉ

[Perfect.]

[All these beautiful trolls]

[deathboss]

Michel will make sure you get the best one!

[He says to everyone. Heh heh heh he is SO GOOD.]

[anon & locked once more]

[beknightedheroine]

I may as well throw my own ballot in for this blind date charade. This is Lelouch.

[deathboss]

[Man so many of these are signing up anonly how strange...perhaps it is simply that they do not want him to know where they are typing from. BRILLIANT!]

Boy or girl Lelouch? Don't be shy around Michel!

[anon &--WHOOPS SHE FORGOT TO LOCK THIS ONE]

[beknightedheroine]

Sign up 'William T. Spears.'

_{[At this point Sayaka is trying really really hard not to laugh raucously, but she can't afford to stop now! She has people to ruin FIND ROMANCE FOR]}

Re: [anon &--WHOOPS SHE FORGOT TO LOCK THIS ONE]

[files_souls_like_taxes]

I refuse to participate in this ordeal, thank you very much.

[anon & locked this time tho]

[beknightedheroine]

My name is Chihiro Fujisaki, and I'd like to participate.

Re: [anon & locked this time tho]

[deathboss]

[And my name is Eikichi and I sign up everyone who is doing this without questioning it.]

COMBO BREAKER. I mean [video].

[foreseeing_one]

"So I click... I see."

A large eye appeared of the screen as Futomimi looked into the camera, then sat back.

"I would be interested in taking part in this birthday celebration ritual. May I?"

[deathboss]

Ahh holy crap, that was a large eye Eikichi was not expecting.

"The he---oh. Sure! It's a party for everyone." Birthday ritual what. The guy sounded pretty polite.

[Video]

[technologic]

I can help with the decorations and cooking!

[Video]

[deathboss]

That's the spirit! We'll make this a party worthy of Michel's reputation and show the Tower how it's done!

[anon & locked VII: crisis alcor]

[beknightedheroine]

Alcor.

_{[Sayaka you are really starting to push it.]}

[deathboss]

[Especially when Eikichi knows him.]

Star-bro? You sure you wanna do this? It doesn't sound like you at all.

video;

[sageprincess]

... What do we have, if not our morale?

[The woman on the other end of the line sighs with a slight smile, remembering the last true party the Tower had. Quite a few of her friends from then are gone now, but that one fact still holds weight all the same.]

If you need assistance with music, I can provide.

Re: video;

[deathboss]

Exactly! Keep up with the spirit and your natural beauty, Chica!

As for what you can help with, that depends entirely on what you can provide.

Video

[toy_souldier]

[Okay so most of the gushing and boasting went way over Vivi's short head but hey!

See that floppy had on screen? They way it's wiggling? That's showing Vivi's excitement.]

Oh, I love parties! I'd like to help, i-if I can!

Watch him mistake you for someone else

[deathboss]

...hey! You sound different than usual. Softer too.

[anon & locked]

[beknightedheroine]

_{[...she's actually really not sure if she should do this. Jin's been in a bad way, and putting him in the limelight would be kind of a really shitty thing to do--]}

Jin Shirato.

_{[AUGH NO SHE HIT SEND WITHOUT THINKING ABOUT IT]}

[anon & locked]

[beknightedheroine]

_{[DAMMIT SHE CAN'T DELETE IT BECAUSE IT'S ANON NOOOOOOOOOOO]}

[thanabro]

Wow! That's a great idea! And blind dates, huh? Maybe that'll get a better reception than Operation Babe Hunt.

[And everyone who was in on that can now headdesk.]

[video]

[floreatnoctem]

[What is even-?]

...Operation what?

[miseris_socios]

[... What.]

Even with everyone helping, we're still stuck in a shitty tower. That doesn't exactly make for a good birthday party.

[deathboss]

We might be, but I'd rather make the most of a situation than just accept it in defeat, you know? I know that last month was crap, but...seeing everyone smile even just for a little while will do everyone some good.

[Video]

[wrigurun]

Is it really okay to have a party here?

And what's a chica?

[Video]

[deathboss]

Why not? I heard there have been some before. We deserve one!

A chica is a girl in Spanish! Michel enjoys flourishing his language with a little bit of amor.

[private][video]

[nemophila]

I'll do my best. The meadow should provide some good enough resources to put together the best there is. I can help with the decorations too. [Hey look, consistent smiling for once!!]

That said... is it really necessary to throw such a big party?

[private][video]

[deathboss]

Come on Jun, have I ever done anything half-way?

[Honest question.]

[anon & locked for five billionth time]

[beknightedheroine]

Name's Sora, and I'll sign up for this myself.

And, uh. I'm not a chica.

_{[She never stops.]}

[deathboss]

[And it works every time.]

[anon and locked]

[fallen_stage]

a party huh that sounds great! the blind date thing sounds fun so set up zidane tribal with a really cute date

[Just a playful little prank for his little brother... just what will her majesty think?~]

[deathboss]

Michel will see what he can do in regard to that request!

[locked]

[fallen_stage]

[Then again.... why not, it might be an entertaining evening, and a way to show off his people skills.]

About time someone held a real event. I've been missing such entertainment. To add to the festivities, I would like to participate in the blind date setup. The name is Kuja King.

[deathboss]

Sure thing, lady!

[Blink blink. Wait for it.....waaaait for it....]

Wait shit, guy! Man I'm sorry.
