Birthday Party
Who: Paul Atreides and all his CR
What: Throwing everyone’s favorite Duke a surprise birthday party
When: Forwarded dated to April 1st
Where: Bone House in Gaze
Content Warnings: Drinking, underage drinking, drugs (both fictional and not), drawings of space worms, skeletons, will add further warnings if necessary
When you arrive at the house in Gaze, (affectionately known as Bone House), a skeleton will open the door and offer to take your coat if you have one. No need to take your shoes off or anything!
The large house has been decorated with black streamers and confetti. In the entryway and hung on the railing to the second floor that overlooks the entrance to the great room are large banners that say “HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAUL” (though one looks like it used to say “Jaune” but was just painted over? Whatever).
In the Living Room, there is a large board and various colored markers for people to write messages to the birthday boy. There is also a table full of bottled water and various couches, chairs, and beanbags to collapse into if the party gets to be too much and one needs a quiet place to rest or a place to chill if you’ve imbibed too much… well, whatever you had.
It is also where all the food and drinks are.
There’s an extremely large charcuterie board with the usual meats, cheeses, and olives as well as an extremely eccentric collection of snacks ranging from individual sized Cheez-it bags, to humungous bags of Doritos and salty chips, as well as nearly every kind of Oreo one can imagine.
There are also various cakes, all angel food. Some are misshapen, some have an attempt at being frosted with whipped cream and fruit, one even says “Happy Birthday Ka-” before that was hastily covered with a bunch of strawberries jammed really close together.
At the island, a skeleton is playing bartender. Surprisingly, it can seem to take and understand individual orders, but there’s always a constant flow of tequila shots being made and sent out to the great hall to be served by another skeleton.
And, no, of course it’s not going to check your age to see if you’re legal. It’s a skeleton. Why would it care?
The Great Hall is the center of activity and where everyone is encouraged to mingle and have fun. There is a skeleton on the grand piano in the corner gleefully playing piano covers of the hits from the Shrek Soundtrack with the occasional cover of “DaRude’s Sandstorm” when it has another one to help out.
In another corner, on huge piece of paper that spans nearly 6ft wide and 8ft tall is drawing of an Arrakis sandworm and it’s giant maw. The game is Pin the Tooth on the Sandworm and it’s… very easy… because the worm maw is most of the board. Even if the skeleton spins you as you’re blindfolded, it’s pretty hard to lose. If you manage to do it, which is likely, the skeleton running the game will award you a tequila shot! If you lose, the skeletons will award you a tequila shot (but it’s rail).
(It’s a drinking game, isn’t the point to drink?)
There’s also a table that has many candelabras on it, numbering up to seventeen. They’re still lit and burning even though there is a sign that says “make a wish!” even though it almost looks like a shrine for the dead.
…It’s maybe clear that the concept of “birthday candles” was greatly misunderstood.
There is also a skeleton dealing out small doses of “Spice”, a psychoactive drug straight outta the Duneverse. However, you must check in with this Skeleton to get a dose. There will be no “permanently melting your brain with ancestral memories” at this party!
Teacher’s/God’s/Jod’s/The Emperor Undying’s study, adjacent to the main hall, is closed and locked. Though, the lock is fairly easy to break if someone really wanted to get in. There’s not even skeletons guarding.
That said, many things are warded with eerie runes of blood and bone.
So, fuck around and find out.
The upstairs is generally off limits. Party goers can climb up the stairs, and it’s encouraged if they want to look over the Great Room from above, but all of the bedrooms are carefully guarded by more skeletons who will SCREAM VERY LOUDLY if you try to enter and will become hostile if done by force.
Of course, this won’t happen if you are with someone who lives in the house.
Enjoy the party! Mingle away!

The seas here are strange and it's hard to not want to fish squid out in hopes that they might be someone from home or at least somewhat amiable.
[she'd give anything for her husband to join her. if only because that would get him out of Saturn Girl's telepathic grip on him. if Saturn Girl herself arrived...well, Tinya would deal with that if it happened]
Of course. I'm always interested in hearing about other worlds. And sharing stories about my own. [a bit of a chuckle] My mother would be thrilled to see me talking to a handsome young man who was not my husband. Then she'd do her best to get as much information about you as possible, since you'd be judged far better than a street rat from Rimbor. But, yes, it was lovely to meet you and I hope you have a very happy year ahead of you.

I've been thinking of investing in a dipping net.
[It can be played off with a joke, at least, and it's not such a terrible thing - there's always the hope that the sea will give back what it's taken.]
My mother would be asking what kind of alliance I intended to forge with you, so it might be for the best they're absent - and I very much doubt I could be any competition to a partner of yours. [Flattery gets you everywhere.] I think I will have a happier one. Thank you, and the same to you. I hope we cross paths again soon.
[With that, he bends lavishly at the waist, laden down with respect and a touch of mischief, before he takes his leave.]
no subject
It might not hurt?
[she tries the jest, but it may fall flat. it's hard to be away from home so many years]
Oh, my! Then it's best that we never allow our mothers within a parsec of one another, otherwise they might be scheming schemes and dreaming dreams! And trust me, Mother would approve. Loudly, often, and in great detail. [she gives a playful wink] As do I. [she curtsies gracefully, head lowered and held in place for just the right amount of time before she rises.
and she likes the hint of mischief in him. she responds in kind with a cheeky grin] Happy birthday.
