They say it's your birthday...
⭐ Who: Sam, Zeke, and hopefully, YOU!
⭐ When: April 1 (timey wimey...)
⭐ Where: A room in Fujiwara Hall at the University of Yumemigaoka
⭐ What: Zeke's leveling up! Happy birthday!
⭐ Warnings: potential foam weapon violence
Sam has...really done her best. She's barely been back for a full month, but even with all the chaos, she's managed to hammer down what she hopes will be a decent birthday party for Zeke!
She's rented out a hall (at the local university she attends!) and set it up--one long table for food, a few other scattered tables to be seated at and eat at. There's a table that's clearly for incidental gifts, but in the flyers she'd put up at the DU mid-month, she'd made it pretty clear that the only present needed was the gift of one's presence! That had been Zeke's request, when Sam had asked him his opinion.
As is typical of a Sam party, the spread is pretty lavish. Pizza!! She's got the typical meat pies, some white pizzas, some veggie pies. The spinach and artichoke dip is also made with vegan stuff, like the veggie pizzas are. There are various other little snacky tidbits, but the centerpiece and crowning glory is the chocolate cake with the fondant replica of Dreamer Chaosbringer's Purple Lightning Dreamsmasher perched on it, along with a pair of candles that read "27".
Another section of the hall is cordoned off. That's where the real party is going to be held--the fun and games! There are a few rented arcade games that are popular (some side scrollers, shooters, a fighting game or two, and something like Dance Dance Revolution!), a karaoke machine, a truly GIANT pinata, and the star of the show--a ring of sorts, with a thick helping of foam padding on the floor within and surrounding it. There's a place to spectate, but the true draw is the weapons rack. The assorted implements of destruction aren't real weapons, of course--Sam could never have gotten the proper permits in time. No, they're foam weapons, clearly arranged so if partygoers desire, they can wallop each other!
It is totally obvious that Zeke is itching for a chance to get in that ring...especially since his present from Sam is a life sized foam replica of the same sword decorating his cake!
(you all know the drill here, have fun, mingle, enjoy, party! no one is obligated to chat up Sam or Zeke unless you really want to! Let your character blow off some steam, if they can! literally everyone is invited to this! mind the headers, but feel free to make your own, too!)

Well, like. Seven-eighths of it is. Most of the vegan stuff isn't, but there aren't that many vegans at the DU. But there are a few. Sure, I could've just ordered all tomato-based, but there are non-dairy white sauces and cheeses, so...
And the cake is double chocolate, by the birthday boy's request. Lisa Imai helped me bake it, and it seems pretty popular, but not everyone likes chocolate. So I understand if you're one of them.
[It's been a while, so she doesn't remember if Shinjiro does, or if he doesn't.]

Ordered pizza works for the basics. Get to something unusual -- like vegan -- and only the higher end shops have a damn clue what they're doing.
[Then, he tilts his head to the side. He doesn't recognize the name immediately.] Chocolate's good with me.
no subject
Gotta try to remember the stuff the master taught me, eh? [Yes she absolutely means you, Shinjiro. And, well. Sam's done some trial and error, too, because that's what you do.]
Okay then. Let me go gather some stuff up, hang tight, and I'll be back!
[Sam doesn't really wait for him to respond, either, but that's fairly typical. There are plenty of empty pizza boxes stacked on one side of the tables, so she just grabs one and starts raiding the spread. Pepperoni. A slice or two of sausage, two slices of her bacon/burrata/pickle monstrosity. The cake she sets on a piece of foil and carefully wraps, so there's no frosting all over the place...or pepper flakes on the cake, though some people like spicy chocolate...
She boxes it all up, and grabs two waters from one of the remaining coolers (water's inoffensive), and then sneaks back out to deliver the bounty.]
Miss me? [Sam does ask that as she offers the pizza box over, but it's fairly clear she's playing. Next, the water bottles.] Got you some waters, too.

He leans back against the wall, waiting. It's a little weird, he thinks. He hasn't hung around here much. He's gotten used to keeping an eye on his surroundings.
When she comes back, Shinjiro lifts a hand in a wave. And looks at the food. And water. He's always good with water.]
Thanks. [Pizza is best eaten while hot. He opens the box and has a bite of the one she made. There's a moment where he absorbs the taste, then murmurs in appreciation.] Damn. You did good, Sam. Been cooking more?
no subject
[It's not like her mom ever tried to teach her to cook or bake. Sam's done a lot of trial and error, finding some success along the way. Sam nods.]
Yeah, I have. A girl can't exist on cans, cereal, and prepackaged ramen alone--though the ramen here is absolutely on another level.
[She does break into a smile, though.] Not sure I'd call pizza my specialty per se, but I am pretty good at it, if I do say so myself. That, I tend to practice a lot. And the dough works for calzones and stromboli, too!
