[Handing guests a bag of chips, it won't be a surprise then when Ino finally catches sight of Neji. Unlike the others who might have seen a ghost, there's a wide smile on her face as she goes and approaches him.]
Glad you can make it, Neji. [Here, she'll give you a bag.] Do you like the decorations?
[She had seen him dead through Shikamaru but unlike everyone, she hasn't lived through it yet and the effect on her isn't as grave. She had only witnessed details of her own father's death and Neji's own was only seen in passing. Regardless, Ino's not insensitive. She'll strike small talk like Neji is alive.]
