The Deck, early evening Thursday

[blondecanary.livejournal.com]

Dinah had hamburgers and hot dogs, some veggie platters and chips and dip, soft drinks and cake. Oh, and ice cream in the fridge inside for later.

Happy birthday, Will Shakespeare! Oh, and her too.

[very limited OCD about to go up!, for early justice and time zones; set before Dress Rehearsal/Previews.

Anyone welcome, even if you don't know her! I'm sticking to Dinah's thread to keep it simple.]

"Ino's going to help me install grass instead of carpeting," she said quickly.

Ben blinked and then grinned. "I'm surprised who hadn't thought of that sooner," he teased.

Re: FOOD.

[weetuskenraider]

I did! By about fourteen years! "So am I," Tahiri admitted. "Actually I thought of it weeks ago, but I only just got around to figuring out the whole thing. So you'll help, right?"

Re: FOOD.

[momslilassassin]

"Of course I will," Ben said, nodding. "It's good to have projects."

Re: FOOD.

[weetuskenraider]

"Yeah, I sort of got the idea from you and your projects," Tahiri said. "You're rubbing off on me."

Which, again, was completely not dirty.

Re: FOOD.

[momslilassassin]

"I'm glad to hear it," Ben said, blushing and yet still completely missing the dirty.

Re: FOOD.

[weetuskenraider]

She liked getting him to blush. The smiling was nice, too. "I feel like I should be thanking you for this, somehow."

Re: FOOD.

[momslilassassin]

"Why?" Ben asked.

Re: FOOD.

[weetuskenraider]

"I don't know, actually," Tahiri admitted. "I just feel like I should. You've done a lot for me, and I'd hate for you to think I didn't appreciate it."

Re: FOOD.

[momslilassassin]

Ben bit his lip, then reach his hand out towards her face. "I know you do," he said softly.

Re: FOOD.

[weetuskenraider]

"This is where I would usually just hug you," Tahiri said quietly, leaning into his hand just the tiniest bit.

Re: FOOD.

[momslilassassin]

"Not quite yet?" Ben said softly, leaning his head in to touch her forehead.

Re: FOOD.

[weetuskenraider]

"I know," she assured him. "That's why I have to get creative with thanking you."

Re: FOOD.

[momslilassassin]

"I like cards," Ben said.

Re: FOOD.

[weetuskenraider]

"The obnoxious kind that sing when you open them?" Tahiri asked innocently.

Re: FOOD.

[momslilassassin]

"Depends on the song," Ben decided.

Re: FOOD.

[weetuskenraider]

She grinned. "I promise it won't be 'Dance, Dance, Little Ewok.'"

Re: FOOD.

[momslilassassin]

"Thank the Force for that," he said, chuckling.
