Choromatsu read off the not, barely finishing before the package was pulled from his hands, the cookies ending up up mostly demolished before he could reach in and grab a few.
“I think you can see that your gift won’t have the time to go to waste! I’ll be shocked if they last until tomorrow.”
The other five are already happily chattering about just how good they are.
Todomatsu grins. “How sweet! But, hold on, are they for me or for you?” That sly little demon. “Either way, I want dinner first! Thank you for the present!”
Osomatsu shoves his shoulder with a snort. Todomatsu shoves back. Then Osomatsu, then Todomatsu, and a shove war has now erupted.
All in good fun, of course. (We hope.)
A small box neatly wrapped in fabric arrives for them, inside a special cupcake for each matsu–Red Velvet for Oso, Blueberry for Kara, Key Lime for Choro, Chocolate for Ichi, Banana Pudding for Jyushi, and Strawberry for Totty. With it there comes a handwritten note that reads: Dear F6, I hope your birthday is as wonderful as you are! You deserve all the happiness and more~ Love, Vanillanon. Beneath Oso’s cupcake there’s a little note just for him that says: It isn’t much, but I hope this little taste of sweetness is enough to show how much you’re loved! B-By all your fans of course! Promise you won’t work too hard, okay? ❤️
“Vanillanon! Welcome back!” Osomatsu is already digging in. “You’re just spoiling me with all this stuff, thank you!” He swallows the bite he was chewing, “I mean, it is my birthday, so I can just skip the others and keep these to myself. Right?”
After he was tackled over (no mercy when it comes to snacks, that’s a basic life lesson), the cupcakes secured, the others speak up.
“Instagram is going to hate me because I have a cupcake and they don’t, heyooo.” Totty takes three pictures before losing his patience.
Ichimatsu and Jyuushimatsu briefly wear them as hats. Totty snaps a few pictures of that too.
Choromatsu just barely cuts Karamatsu off from attempting to write a ballad for them, immediately turning to the camera with an aggravated “You’re welcome!”
Then Oso notices the note, pulling it out and reading it with a smile. “Aw, you’re so sweet! Seriously! Explains how you work so well with sugar.” He takes another bite, strangely peaceful. “I do my best to work as little as possible, so you’re good! Man, how did a dweeb like me get such cute fans?”
They all cheer, because familiar name! As Todomatsu reads off the note, the boys all pick up their gifts, just a bit awed.
“We’ve never used fancy stuff in bed before!” Jyuushimatsu cheers, happily sniffing at the fabric.
Ichimatsu hums, “Lavender. Nice.” The boy’s in heaven.
“Believe me,” Choromatsu says, “we’ve already been working hard. Can I make announcement number one?”
“Sure, why the hell not?” Osomatsu says, shouting “Drumroll, please!” before everyone pounds on the floor.
“We’re not just doing a few campaigns as a group, but we’re all going to get individual ad campaigns too!” Choromatsu cheers.
“We’ve been so tired out lately, between doing photoshoots for these campaigns, filming commercials, recording new songs for the background, it’s super exhausting!” Todomatsu says with a pout. “But, if it gets more material out for you guys to love, it can’t be all bad!”
Karamatsu already has taken his hat and sunglasses off, put the mask atop his head, and put his hat and sunglasses back where they were. “Dear Daisy, we will sleep soundly and dream of our beloved fans’ love and affection. Your kindness has warmed my heart to its melting point! How will I deal with the rest of the day?” Drama king.
The camera flickers on, the boys staring at an unseen screen, mumbling quietly over whether or not it’s working. Once they’re sure everything is set up right, they scramble back to their seats.
“We’re up real early, huh?” Osomatsu says, yawning a tad. “We just got so excited that we couldn’t wait any longer! It’s our birthday, and it’s the first one where more than a little cluster knows us, so we’re super jazzed, right?” He punches the air, and the other brothers cheer. “Our staff already gave us one gift, and we’re gonna test it out ASAP: our new and improved introductions!”
They’re unbelievably excited over the prospect: no more meat-eating meat or mysterious cool guys. Nope, they’re losers and they’re allowed to own it. Todomatsu raises a hand, smiling.
“Can we go youngest to oldest?”
“G’head, I’m just happy to not be Refreshing Justice. Too much pressure to be chill, I can’t do it anymore!” Osomatsu’s already laying on his pillow on the floor.
Todomatsu fistpumps with a quiet “yes!” before clearing his throat to start. “Hey, who did you just call a cute prince?”
He holds a hand up to his ear, and the others fill in for the audience. “Totty.”
“A little louder, please!”
“Totty!”
“One more time!”
“Totty!”
“The cute prince who’s aiming for the top of the idol world, I’m Matsuno Todomatsu, but you can call me Totty, thank you for having me!” He traces the outline of a massive heart before half bowing and nudging Jyuushimatsu.
“Since I already changed mine way back, mine’s gonna stay mostly the same! Everybody, say it with me!”
He pumps his arms up and down, the others joining in with a loud yell of “Muscle muscle, hustle hustle!”
“What is Jyuushimatsu?” he says, shrugging, hands out.
“Positive!”
“I’m the high tension pinch hitter, Matsuno Jyuushimatsu! Thank you very muscle muscle!“ He bows quickly before tugging on Ichimatsu’s sleeve.
Ichimatsu grabs one of the party popper to use as a prop mic. “Nya.”
A few of them snicker as he holds it out to an imaginary audience. “Nya!”
“Nya nya.”
“Nya nya!”
“Nya nya nyaaaa.”
“Nya nya nyaaaaa!”
He gets just a tad more intense, “Make it loud, and make it count!”
“Ichimatsu-sama!”
He’s actually smiling, how did this happen. “F6’s doll of darkness, Matsuno Ichimatsu.” Little bow, and back to straight-faced. It was nice while it lasted.
Choromatsu is more than eager to get on with his. “It’s time for a spell from the apprentice wizard, Chororin!” The others barely manage to cheer through their laughter. “Everyone clap along!” Once a steady rhythm is set, he starts a more SFW version of an old joke the staffers started. “Magical, mystical!”
“Pyuropyurorin!”
“Special, spacial!”
“Pyuropyuroriiiin!”
“I’m the ascended fanboy, the always-rising Chororin, also known as Matsuno Choromatsu, thank you very much.” He bows minutely, motioning for Karamatsu to take over.
Karamatsu holds a hand in the air, three fingers up. The others jokingly imitate drumrolls as he counts down. “Three! Two! One!” Index finger and thumb out, pointing to his temple. “Bang!” He throws his arms wide, as if calling to the heavens. “I am a sinful man!”
“A guilt guy!” It physically hurt them to say that, as was plain to see on their faces.
“Heh! It is I, the Eternal Dreamer, Matsuno Karamatsu, hoping to fill your life with the magic of song and the warmth of true love, thank you very much.“ He bows a tad, and everyone’s just a bit excited that his stint is over.
Osomatsu cups his hands around his mouth, yelling his. “Who can everyone rely on?”
“Osomatsu-niisan.”
“I can’t hear you!”
“Osomatsu-niisan!”
“I’ve got all day, louder! Who can everyone rely on?!”
“Osomatsu-niisan!”
He snickers, scratching under his nose. “Man, didn’t your parents tell you it’s bad to lie?” He straightens up with a grin. “I’m the lazy leader, everyone’s good for nothing big brother, Matsuno Osomatsu!” He bows, sitting back up and grabbing one of the color coded tablets to check the comments in the stream’s chat. “You guys are liking the new intros, good! Hopefully we keep making this fun, we do aim to please! It’s time to finally kick off the birthday festivities, with everyone’s favorite sextuplets…”
The Same Faces’ birthday is coming up next week, and they want YOU to celebrate with them!
They’ve rented out one of their favorite clubs for the evening. There’ll be all kinds of music (supplied by a DJ – these fellas don’t wanna work on their birthday) and dancing. Mountains of cake and copious amounts of liquid courage. And of course, plenty of chances to spoil these boys rotten!
Presents: Specify who you’re giving the gift to, and what it is. He’ll open it and give you an appropriate (or inappropriate) reaction. Please be nice to the boys and don’t get them anything that you wouldn’t want them to open in public. ;D
Dance Requests: Ask one of the guys to dance with you. (Hey, it’s their birthday, they don’t have to do the work of asking you, right?) If you want to specify a type of dancing – say slow, or fun and fast – go right ahead, but I’ll be picking the song.
You can give them a present, or ask for them to dance with you, or both. If you’re doing both, please send them in separate asks!
The fun begins on Wednesday, May 24th, starting at 12 PM CST. Presents will be answered first, then dance requests. It may take a few days for Mod Daisy to get through all the asks, please be patient!
First come, first served, up to 60 asks total!
