Maddox, Clover, and Chausie all whisper to each other and giggle as they finish setting everything up. They've laid out cakes and cookies and prepared tea and have set everything up as best they can on a table in the Auradon Prep garden. They know Ciar has had a real rough time lately so they've decided to throw them an unbirthday party to cheer them up.
"They're coming!" Clover says as Maddox finishes putting the candles on the cake. The three of them turn to face Ciar, who looks confused and intrigued by the sight in front of them.
"Happy unbirthday!" The three cheer for them, causing Ciar to break out into a large, Cheshire grin.
"You guys shouldn't have," Ciar says as Chausie guides Ciar to their seat and the three sit next to them.
"But of course we did! It's your unbirthday!" Maddox says as he pulls out his lighter and starts to light the candles on the cake for them.
"Aaaaa very merry unbirthday to you!" Clover starts singing, making them all laugh and causing some of the other students to stare, most noticeably Herkie, the son of Hercules and Megara, but they don't care.
"Who me?" Ciar goes along, causing the others to start singing along, too.
"Yes you!" Chausie sings.
"Lets all congratulate us with another cup of tea. A very merry unbirthday to you! Now blow the candle out my deer and make the wish come true!" The three sing to Ciar, causing them all to laugh and then Ciar blows out the candles and the cake flies up into the air and explodes into multiple small fireworks.
"You even got the right cake, too!" Ciar says happily and Maddox grins.
The three of them sit down next to Ciar and they all start to pour themselves tea and eat the tea cakes. "We thought this might cheer you up," Chausie says.
"It has, thank you guys," Ciar says.
"It was Clover's idea," Maddox explains before drinking his tea.
After some time laughing and eating and drinking Maddox slams his hand down on the table, causing all the plates and cups to rattle. "Clean cup! Move down!" He says, carrying on the way his own father does at tea parties sometime and without questioning it everyone moves down at the table.
But before they can all get settled in their new seats Herkie storms over to the table and pulls on the table cloth, causing everything to fall off the table onto the ground and causing the teacups and teapots and saucers to break. "Can you freaks ever shut up? I know you oddities are loud and obnoxious but you're not in Wonderland anymore you're in Auradon, act like it! You all are so annoying," he snaps before storming off back to his group of friends.
The four friends stare in shock at their ruined unbirthday party and watch Herkie storm off, unsure of what to do or say. They were just having harmless fun, people in Wonderland throw unbirthday parties all the time. The four of them exchange glances and then they all look to Ciar, who this unbirthday party was for.
They stare at their triplets and their friend and give them a small, sad smile. "Well, it was fun while it lasted. Thank you guys, it was really nice," they say before disappearing and teleporting away.
Clover, Chausie, and Maddox are now left with a mess to clean up and they all glance over to Herkie, sitting with his friends acting as though nothing had even happened, before wordlessly trying to gather up anything salvageable.
