2.20 The one with nothing happening

After what seemed like an eternity, it was finally time for the youngest Star’s birthday.

I’m so proud to stand here today, with my little daughter on my arm, ready to watch her grow up into childhood. I almost remember the day she was born, how proud I was to be responsible for such a cute baby, and now she is already celebrating her fifth birthday. Time has gone by so quickly, and I can’t even find the right words to explain how I feel.

Well, in that case just don’t say anything at all, okay?

I can’t get enough of this animation of blowing out the candles together. Look how she watches her daddy. 

And without much excitement, just a few sparkles and a handful of cheers, Tara grew up into a sweet child who we probably won’t hear of for the next time. Sorry to say that, but she’s just not that…special, or noticeable.

Obligatory cake-eating picture. At least two out of three persons are dressed appropriately, that’s a good quota. 

Three out of there, new record!

Alfie obviously didn’t approve of Willow’s dress-up, and decided to be pissed at her for showing so much skin. To him, she was still a young girl, and dressing this provocatively was something he didn’t tolerate. Even though nobody was seeing her like this. (I have to admit that I’m kind of with Willow on that one; NOBODY saw her. And she is insane, after all.)

Go to your room and put on something else! Go! That colour doesn’t suit your hair colour, it makes you look ugly. I can’t stand to look at this colour combination any more.

Ah, I forgot that he is an avant-gardist. Maybe it wasn’t the clothes’ revealing character that drove him mad after all.

Willow decided to try her father’s machine. He barely used it, anyway.

I found out some amaaaazing stuff. *eyes sparkle*

This can only be described as group-pressure. It was the only time he went there for the entire chapter, though, so we can forget about this incident. Alfie, you will never make your LTW. NEVER.

He also made some experiments on a lady-bug, which survived! This made Alfie really happy. And me, too. Lady-bugs never harm anybody, and they are actually kind of cute.

This colour again! I told you it doesn’t suit you! What is this bullshit? Why is nobody listening to me?

Random picture of Xander playing soccer in the garden. In his best suit. While it’s raining. Sure, why not.

As long as everybody is having fun, I’m fine. It would be nice to watch something exciting, though. Anything. Why are there no bad fights, or anything interesting? This is boring to watch. Sorry, but it is. Alfie, do something.

I can’t hear you, I have leaves in my ear.

Sounds legit.

Finally a fight broke loose. Thank God. This time, both parents and Willow were involved, even though Ivy just stood there most of the time. Alfie really had it for Willow at the moment, bothering her every single day about her outfits. I love that colour on her, though! It really brings out her eyes, don’t you think? (And yes, I am aware that you can’t see her eyes right here, as they’re not on her butt)

Poor girl, her youngest sister decided to join in and be pissed at her, too. Not that her arguments were very impressive. That’s what you call “supportive parents”, huh?

It was this time that I started feeling really bad for Willow. Everybody started fights with her, and it wasn’t her fault. Not at all. Just because she was the heir, and most of the people in this household were not? As soon as the torch was passed on to her, things were about to change, for sure. She would no longer be pushed around like this. Promise, Willow! :)
