Pirate saunters in like he already owns the place, compass spinning in his palm, clearly deciding whether this party is worth his trouble. It usually is, once he spots the birthday child, who he quickly declares his new first mate. He's spent a lifetime talking his way out of trouble, and somehow that same charm makes every kid in the room want to follow him straight into it. Half the fun is never quite knowing which version of the story he's telling this time.
