[OPEN] They say it's your birthday || We're gonna have a good time!

WHO: Most of the HP cast and ANYONE WHO IS FRIENDS WITH HARRY
WHERE: Potterbase (née Moonybase)
WHEN: TODAY, 7/31/11
WARNINGS: Parents being shmoopy
SUMMARY: IT'S HARRY POTTER'S BIRTHDAY Y'ALL!
FORMAT: Any!

The afternoon was sunny with a pleasant breeze. A tent had gone up in the yard, and each of the main rooms of the house were decorated along the theme of a garden paradise. Enchanted leis and large straw hats were there for the taking, and various wizarding games had been laid out: exploding snap, a chessboard whose pieces currently looked rather board, Pin The Nose On Voldemort (with a variety of comedic noses to choose from). there was a table, already piled high with gifts but with plenty of room for more.

Food had been made and set out, and meltless charms had been cast on all of the icecream. There were wo big bowls of punch. One of them is charmed to be spike-free, the other...well. It may eventually dissolve the bowl and the table beneath it.

All that is missing is YOU!

"Great, it's— lovely." He studied the funny-looking plant a bit as she poked it, intrigued, before glancing back up at her again at her question. "Oh yeah, it's a very nice party. Are you enjoying yourself as well?"

"Yes, it's amazing! I have never been to anything like this, though, so it is a little bit overwhelming." She stood on her tiptoes to peer over his shoulder at a pair of guests playing chess. "Like that!"

"You've never been to a party before?" He tilted his head as he looked at her, puzzled, before following her gaze to the guests playing chess. "We could play a game too, if you like. There's plenty."

"Nope, never! I grew up on a tiny island, so..." She trailed off, considering the chessboards. "Okay! Is it really different from normal chess?"

Harry didn't question that any further and instead moved closer to the chessboards, beckoning her to follow. "It's not too different, only this is wizarding chess and the pieces can move on their own. You just tell them what to do. There's exploding snap too," he added, pointing to a card deck.

Jade followed, plopping down at one of the tables and examining the chessboard curiously. "And it will still work even though I'm not a wizard?"

Harry took a seat opposite her, nodding as he looked at the bored-looking chess pieces starting to jump to attention. "Yeah, it's not a problem. They'll listen."

She giggled as she gave one of the pawns an experimental poke. "They're so cute! We don't have anything like this at home." Jade glanced up at Harry again and adjusted her glasses absentmindedly. "Are all of the rules the same?"
