5th Floor Common Room, Tuesday evening

[minnesota-teen.livejournal.com]

With Liir's help, the common room was transformed into a vivid party room. Purple streamers were hung, balloons in every color were tied around, some left loose to pop or kick like some people liked to do (not her, geeze), and HAPPY BIRTHDAY INO! was everywhere.

Music was going and Amber was adding finishing touches to the gift table; little shiny curly things in purple everywhere. Hopefully Ino liked purple. While she was doing that, Liir was busy in the kitchen, getting the food in order and her mouth was watering just smelling some of what he had cooked.

Yay, party!

[Liir lovingly modded with permission and up early for timezone goodness, woot! Please wait for OCD is up!]

"Seriously, stop giving me questions back!" he glared at her. "I don't know! I don't have anything you want!"

Re: Arrive/Mingle

She stuck her tongue out at him. "Winner gets to name what they want after, then."

"Fine," he stuck his tongue back out at her. "So... I guess I should go stand on the other side of the room."

Re: Arrive/Mingle

[intraspective]

"If you want," she said, wanting to sulk a bit. "Or, you know, we could decide it starts tomorrow."

Re: Arrive/Mingle

"Hmmmmm," he considered her for a moment. "It would be rude to deprive you of my company on your birthday."

Re: Arrive/Mingle

[intraspective]

"I might even cry," she said helpfully.

Re: Arrive/Mingle

He gave her a weird look, clearly not believing her. Still, he'd play along with it. "And we can't have that. You should eat some of your cake, it will cheer you up."

Re: Arrive/Mingle

[intraspective]

"Fine, fine, I'll have cake," she said, grinning. "Since you're so determined to make me eat it."

Re: Arrive/Mingle

[first-guardian.livejournal.com]

"Just seems a shame to let a perfectly good cake sit there and grow stale," he said airily.

Re: Arrive/Mingle

[intraspective]

"Cake doesn't go stale that quick," she said, making a face at him.

Re: Arrive/Mingle

[first-guardian.livejournal.com]

"Do you want to risk it, though?" he asked.

Re: Arrive/Mingle

[intraspective]

"I think you might just steal the cake if I don't," Ino said.

Re: Arrive/Mingle

[first-guardian.livejournal.com]

"I wouldn't steal it," he argued. "I'd just eat it."

Re: Arrive/Mingle

[intraspective]

"Just like I wouldn't steal your shirts?" she asked innocently.

Re: Arrive/Mingle

[first-guardian.livejournal.com]

"No, I'd eat it in front of you," he protested. Which... was maybe exactly like that.

Re: Arrive/Mingle

[intraspective]

"That sounds just like what I did with your shirt." A beat. "Sans eating, though."

Re: Arrive/Mingle

[first-guardian.livejournal.com]

He eyed her. "No, I think you ate it."

Re: Arrive/Mingle

[intraspective]

...

"I didn't!" Ew.

Re: Arrive/Mingle

[first-guardian.livejournal.com]

He grinned. "It's why you're not hungry now," he insisted.

Re: Arrive/Mingle

[intraspective]

"That's just gross," she said. "Who'd eat a shirt?"

Re: Arrive/Mingle

[first-guardian.livejournal.com]

"I don't know. A goat?" he shrugged.

Re: Arrive/Mingle

[intraspective]

"Do I look like a goat to you?"

Re: Arrive/Mingle

[first-guardian.livejournal.com]

"I'd have to take a closer look," he said thoughtfully.

Re: Arrive/Mingle

[intraspective]

Ino raised her eyebrows at him. "A closer look?"

Re: Arrive/Mingle

[first-guardian.livejournal.com]

"To make sure," he clarified, as if that explained it. He was just talking nonsense now.
