"Party" would be an extreme word for it; the more accurate word would be "casual gathering of people with liquor readily available." It is The Hanged Man, though, so who knows what shenanigans could unfold.
They've taken over a corner of the inn, and though there isn't much in the way of decorations - making sure the place could be easily accessed after all that snow was work enough - there are a couple of strings of bunting.
Don't get too wild; it'd be unfortunate if Herian had to interrupt her own (shared) birthday celebration in the sake of preserving the Inquisition's reputation. (Or do get wild, and simply shrug it off as The Hanged Man's influence. Whatever.)
Be sure of one thing, though - at least one round is one Herian. Maybe. If you're a close friend, or look particularly glum.

He grins in return when she seems to be pleased with the gift, returning the hug warmly. This was nice. It was...amazingly normal, something that people who had never worried about Circles got to do. Saoirse deserved that.
"I hope you like the book. It's from Nevarra. They're good at entropy-type magic, which I know you like, so...I was hoping it'd be interesting. A different perspective on something you like." He offers a sheepish smile, rubbing the back of his neck. "It's been ages since I've done the present thing, so let me know if I messed it up?"

It's nice to feel the hug returned especially after everything they had been through both before and after the Circles fell. She spent so long thinking that perhaps he had just been another victim of the chaos flooding through Kirkwall at the time, and she imagines he might have thought the same and so to have this now? It's wonderful.
"I love it, Gareth. There's nothing to worry about it all, especially since it might help me further my understanding of my own magic." It's said with a smile as she hugs the book close. "This is just another wonderful addition to what has already become a lovely year."

He's relieved when Saoirse assures him that the gift is satisfactory. So he hadn't managed to mess that up, at least. That's good. He'll have to remember that for future birthdays, if he ever went around celebrating any more.
"Did you ever think it'd end up like this? Finally free, celebrating. Getting to dance with cute rifter boys." A cheeky grin is plastered across his face as he wiggles his eyebrows at her.

And it will literally be a shower, do not test her.
"Yes, I could have never imagined the world having changed in such ways back when we first met." When they were both shadows of what they were now, hardly living with an ounce of spark let alone life at times. "We still have a lot more to do but things are... well, they are not so bad now."
Excuse the blushful smile to end all smiles as she glances as a certain cute rifter boy because when could she ever hide anything?
