SIGMA'S BIRTHDAY - April 24
As one might expect of everyone's angel, the manager's birthday is a big deal at the aerial casino. Try as Sigma might to downplay it, he IS well liked by the staff for his care, even though working to repay their debts to him. Thus, the casino tends to go all out for celebrations. ( It doubles as another means of luring more guests into the casino with deals and festivities, and this positive association naturally makes someone more inclined to visit again. ) Discounts, decorations, fesitivities ; the casino always makes it a BIRTHDAY TO REMEMBER. There's a lot more greek food and influence for that day as well do to sigma's false history.
Sigma is touched by it of course. Considering the hell of his beginning, this is everything he never imagines he could dream of. BUT SIGMA DOESN'T ACTUALLY CARE FOR THE DRAMATIC FLAIRS. It's rather hilarious given how much he is inclined to grand and dramatic gestures for those he cares about (if he knows they will like them), but he himself isn't. he doesn't mind them !! He would love it if someone DID do a grand gesture, but it isn't a big deal to him. He appreciates THE THOUGHT more than anything else. The sentiment that anyone wants to celebrate personally with him. Even if its as simple as just eating a piece of cake together in the evening with some music, or painting together, or taking a stroll. He cares more for genuine company than gifts. It's little gestures that can say everything.
While obviously dependent upon rp relationships, I like to think Fyodor and Nikolai pay him a visit, or he comes to them after the casino festivities. They don't have to do much, but they're the two most important people to him. Of course their presence matters ; or even just a phone call if they can't meet up for some reason. ( He does understand things come up. ) He likes to sit with them, chat, just enjoy it again with some treats and maybe card games or something else. Mundane but priceless. If he's on his own, he tends to retreat to his office as the night ends to have a piece of cake and wine while reading more mythology stories because he LOVES mythology and learning the mythology of different cultures, and it's a nice way to end the night, even if the stories are often tragic.
