fandomhighdorms | Sixth Floor; Late Tuesday Afternoon and On! [ 09/24 ] -- Ino's Birthday Party!

There was hopefully no way that Ino could begrudge Cal having her party a day late, especially since it was a far cry from being a day short. The food he had planned caused him to get some use out of that sixth floor kitchen and space, and he'd been to the task ever since he finished with Oceanography class in hopes to get it finished before everyone started showing up. If they did. He'd ~~handwavily because the mun sucks~~ passed out the invitations through everyone's door, but who only knew with the drama of yesterday.

If no one showed up, he'd have to deal with a pouting Ino. But, on the bright side, he'd have all this delicious Greek food for leftovers basically until eternity, because there was a lot of it.

He'd even decorated a little, subtly, with some occasional touch of purple. And a "HAPPY BIRTHDAY INO!" banner in case anyone couldn't figure out what it was all about. Throw on some music, and there it was. There was nothing to the party part. It was mostly about the food, anyway.

Oh, and Ino. Her, too.

[[ up early for great SP justice! Everyone got invites, so come one, come all, ~~but please wait for~~ some OCD has arrived! ]]

Ino tugged on her hair idly.

"I don't know anyone who tried bargaining with him for that," she admitted, "but people can, if they're willing to pay the price, get him to do other things--like seal things up, and such. It's worth it, to some people, even if they're not 'round to see the result."

"Huh." Didi tilted her head to the side. "Yeah, usually when somebody wants to talk to me for a bargain, it's either they don't want to die or they want somebody they love not to be dead. The second one doesn't usually work out all that well, either. But -- there are always exceptions and, like you said, sometimes it's worth it to someone."

"Generally," she admitted, "I think it'd be worth it when there's something more important to them than their own life, you know? You'd have to be either a strong person or a desperate one to gamble like that."

"Being both usually helps," Didi said.

"That's simplifying things a bit too far for me," she said, wrinkling her nose. "I mean, not everyone is going to cling to life, you know? Or rule out something that crazy, no offense, that easily."

"I said 'usually' and 'helps,' no offense," Didi pointed out. "Those aren't really words for absolutes."

She laughed.

"Guess not, huh?"

"I'll let you get away with it as a birthday present," Didi informed her. "Which -- happy happy, again, and I'll let you get back to your other guests!"

"Thanks," she said, smiling. "I'll see you 'round."
