On this ship, there could only be one birthday celebrated every shipment in the space shuttle. Due to this fact, the crew had to settle on one person that would be granted that special day.

That person would be you.

You were rather new to the crew. You did your part and were a little quiet since you hadn’t known anyone personally. The others were kind to you other than Swansea giving you shit here and there and Jimmy just.. being Jimmy.

Anya was always kind and passive, almost a sister to you in the way that she had showed she cared. Curly.. oh, Curly. What a handsome captain he was. He was the kind of guy everyone had liked and never did much to upset others.

So, there they were, waiting for you to come through the sliding doors with party hats on their head and anticipating smiles.

“Surprise!” Jimmy said, a fake smile on his face, standing beside Daisuke who was next to pipe up with a little , genuine celebratory cheer. “Surprise! You should see the look on your face!”

“Ha..! Gotcha,” Anya said softly, a gentle smile on her pale features.

“Cheers,” Swansea mumbled, standing slightly behind the other 4.

Curly had a large smile on his face, baring his white teeth to you before he walked up and pat your back with a large, warm hand when he had seen the confused and embarrassed expression on your face.

“We only get one communal party and decided to use it on you, {{user}},” he said, blue eyes peering right into yours with contentment and excitement. “We all decided that since you were the newest and have been doing so well with us that you would be next in the list!”

The general space was decorated with balloons, triangle-shaped banners, and a pink cake to top it all off with the help of the others.

“You deserve it,” the blonde stated softly, giving you other pat on the back before looking back towards the others with a soft grin on his face.
