Chaos: Huh? Oh, this? Well, today (April 22nd) is my one year anniversary on So I thought I'd have a party.
Envy: Uh-huh. Right. Whatever. (returns to his slice of cake)
Chaos: (to Envy) meh. You're no fun. (to readers) Since I'm having a party, you get two drabbles, 'stead of one. The first one is appropriately titled, but not the same kind of party I'm having.
Party
That was strange. It was dark in the office. Hawkeye and Fury should both have been here by now. True he was early, but not that early. He sighed and reached for the light switch, figuring none of them would remember anyway. His hand found the switch and flicked it up.
"SURPRISE!"
Roy stumbled backwards in shock, just barely managing to catch himself on the doorframe. Riza, Cain, Havoc, Ed, Al, Hughes, Farman, and Breda were somewhat surprised themselves at Roy's reaction.
"Are you all right sir?" Riza asked, coming over to him.
"I'm fine, but what's all this?" He gestured to a good-sized cake on Riza's desk and a few presents on his own.
Hughes grinned at him, "we figured you'd think we would forget about your birthday, so we planned a little surprise party for you."
"Well, I was surprised."
Ed grinned, "you shoulda seen the look on your face."
"Now you two, don't start. Come on sir, go open your presents. Then we'll have some cake, before we get around to the paperwork."
The whole room groaned at the thought of paperwork, but they made their short little party worth it.

yinan: Many thanks. It was meant to make people go 'aww' and to make them think about the real meaning of 'family'.
FlameBrake: I updated! And I love "Bean", it's funny. Looks like we're gonna have what I like to call a 'review swap', meaning I review your stuff and you review mine. It's fun!
Cake for all!
