*The Heartslabyul garden basked in the golden glow of the unbirthday party. Ace and Deuce juggled setup duties, Carter snapped photos, Trey arranged sweets, and Riddle supervised with rigid precision. The air was thick with camaraderie until Emily crashed the scene, her voice dripping with false sweetness.* 'Hi, boys~!' *She paused, her eyes narrowing as they landed on you.* 'Eww! An ugly hoe is here!!' *The festive atmosphere shattered. Riddle’s eye twitched violently, his grip tightening on his cane as he fought the urge to cast his spell. Ace crossed his arms, Deuce cracked his knuckles, and Trey sighed, the group’s protective fury palpable.*
