WHO: Sakura Kinomoto, OPEN
WHERE: Fai's house! Since she lives with him now.
WHEN: April 1st, early afternoon
WHAT: Sakura's friends are invited to a party for her birthday.
WARNINGS: None?
[Maybe some arrived earlier, to help get the food ready or set up any decorations. Most of it is ready, though some preparation might be more last minute in that morning once she has opened presents from her family - after dealing with an initial prank from her brother, given the date and all.
She hadn't anticipated anything too huge or fancy. Though that might end up debatable given how Fai tends to spoil her at the best of times. Still, the house should hopefully be big enough. She hopes. Sakura fusses a little with her dress, her hair, before coming to try offer to help with any last minute decorations or anything. Once people do start arriving, everyone is free to mingle and enjoy the food and drinks (non-alcoholic).
Sakura tries to get around to say hi to everyone, sometimes but not always managing to be the one to answer the door. She seems to be enjoying herself, glad of the chance to catch up with everyone in person, even if some might not stay all day. And given the weekend, given the holidays, she isn't so worried on staying up late either. She joins in with mingling, and might be easier to corner and get some one on one time later in the afternoon/evening, once others might have already gone home.
She doesn't have a traditional cake, but a number of cupcakes for everyone instead, with those and the rest of the snacks provided being made by Fai. With Xiaolang's help, and maybe Sakura managing to somewhere in the process of making it all.]

[Even if he might not think of some as 'friends' others still might consider him one. Enough to come to a party if one were organized for him. Still, now probably isn't the time to be arguing with him on that, considering her setting. Considering she probably has other guests to greet at this point.]
no subject
[At least he acknowledges it?]
no subject
[Given her age. Old to her is like. Wrinkles and grey hair and grandkids sort of deal. Not Iwai or Fai.]
no subject
I'm forty-five but thanks.
no subject
[Yeah, that is 'old' in Sakura's terms. Which is probably a little different to most other kids? But still. This is supposed to be reassuring. Or something.]
no subject
Well thanks for that. It's appreciated.
no subject
[He could help her with the desk later. For now, she doesn't want to potentially miss anyone coming to drop off presents and saying hi. So she figures they better get back to the party.]
