Why was the birthday cake hard as a rock? [OPEN]

WHO: Darin, Allura, and YOU!
WHERE: An abandoned quarry, the most DBZ-ish battle site we could find outside of town
WHEN: June 10th
WHAT: We stole Darin's Birthday! It's a birthday party for Darin with a devious theme
WARNINGS: we're placing an order for ham and extra-extra-extra cheese, please deliver




That was the invitation sent to Darin, right on the morning of his birthday.

Everyone else received a different invitation a little bit earlier, explaining the premise: Dress up like a villain, make up a name and a rap sheet, have fun with it.

Despite the theme, nothing had really been stolen away about Darin's birthday at all. The party would have all the usual amenities: There was music playing over speakers that had been rigged up onto the walls of the quarry, and a massive grill (with a rotating group of evil grillmasters) was cooking up platters of summer foods. Any guest whose stomach was rumbling could pick up a plate and enjoy.

For those who weren't entertained enough by food, music, and socialization, there was a schedule of party games picked for the theme, such as a team trivia game and Werewolf. As a special twist, water balloons and nerf guns had been stashed amongst the decorations, just in case anyone wanted to liven things up by launching a surprise attack on the rest of the party. For the less social guests, there were a few secluded tables and a stack of boardgames that sounded like ones villains would enjoy, such as Cards Against Humanity and Risk.

In the evening, there would be a battle royale, hosted in a sand pit that had been cleared out for the occasion. Participation wasn't mandatory, and victory was determined by either surrender or by the number of hits, recorded by special vests worn by fighters.

And after the battle royale, of course, cake and punch would be served. After all, the cake was never really stolen — only hidden away for the party's finale. And hey, since they were having this party outdoors, why not set off a few fireworks?
