[Voice / Action: CH1 Floor 4, 5/1] Birthday Party (Joint post with Ino)

[VOICE, INO]
[A loud, familiar voice would be heard throughout the network today. Good thing it's not so early in the morning when it hollers or there'd be a lot of ruined mornings today despite the important announcement.]

Hey, Luceti! We've all had a lot of drama these past few days so, what do you all say about a little party? It's Chouji's birthday today and, of course, that needs celebrating!

Come by the first community building and you'll find the happenings on the fourth floor. See you there!


[With a little giggle, the announcement ends there.]

[ACTION]
It was only a little bit of a surprise to Chouji when he received an invitation to his own birthday party, delivered to the apartment door. These were things you just had to expect and accept with Ino as a teammate. Everyone on the floor along with Kiba and Asuma received paper invitations. Then he heard her network post, inviting pretty much everyone in the village. Ino.

He'd laughed and grinned when he woke up to a knock on the apartment door and the smell of chips that morning, a purple whirlwind demanding entrance to the apartment so she could decorate it. A glance down the hallway showed a trail of butterfly decorations, marking the path of Hurricane Ino.

Chouji gladly spent half of his birthday in the kitchen, likewise decorated with butterflies, cooking for his own party. He'd always been the team's cook, and there was no reason for that to change just because it was his party.

By dinnertime, the common areas as well as Chouji, Shikamaru, and Masaomi's apartment held enough potato chips to feed an army even without all the food Chouji cooked. Barbecue, of course, along with vegetables, rice, fish, chicken curry, miso soup, and one or two desserts. He made sure to include pudding, his thanks to Ino for her thought and effort.

Now they just needed some guests to help eat it all.


((OOC: I am very close to done with the semester and will be back to full tagging speed ASAP! I'll match whatever format you tag me in, prose or brackets.

Open to anyone! Threadhopping and mingling highly encouraged! It's a party.))

[That even Temari tried surprises him. Enough that he pauses midway through a wobble forward, still balancing her clinging to his waist. He blinks down and gets moving again when presented with the next question.]

Just the one. We got back a couple hours ago, me and Linda.

[He's got another in a couple days, but he doesn't know about that yet. :T]
breezing: (+ i will tell you everything!)

[ Ikki will actually let go so he can walk more easily, although she reaches up for one of his hands as a consolation prize. ]

What was it about? Linda went with you? Why didn't she go with Masaomi?
endgames: (Nice)

[personal profile] endgames 2013-06-01 09:47 pm (UTC)(link)
[He lets her, giving her a light noogie with his free hand too before dropping it back.]

Masaomi had his own mission. Linda was missing him, so I thought going on a mission with me might give her something to do.

[personal profile] breezing 2013-06-02 11:55 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, he did? I haven't seen him since - the party? The Pokemon one, not this one. Everyone's really busy lately!

What'd you and Linda do on the mission, though?
endgames: (Funny)

[personal profile] endgames 2013-06-04 11:22 am (UTC)(link)
[Jeez, ain't that the half of it.

...]
Aa. We went to a jungle. It wasn't that exciting.
breezing: (+ AND THEN I SAID. storytime.)

[personal profile] breezing 2013-06-04 04:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Were there flowers as big as your head? Did you bring one back? Can you bring stuff back when you go on missions?

[ she begs to differ about it being exciting. ]
endgames: (Brilliant)

[personal profile] endgames 2013-06-04 11:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[Pfft. He laughs at her enthusiasm.]

Heh... They don't like it when you do. [Hell, he had to cough up some mission points to keep the bullet they took out of his gut that one time.] Besides, the flowers I saw were gross. I don't think anyone would want one like that.
breezing: (= considering this.)

[personal profile] breezing 2013-06-07 03:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Why not? Does something bad happen if you take stuff here?

[ like do they explode or ]

How can a flower be gross?
endgames: (Hmm)

[personal profile] endgames 2013-06-08 06:15 am (UTC)(link)
Have you ever seen those flowers that have a lot of sticky pollen trapped inside them?
breezing: (- I'M SUSPICIOUS.)

[personal profile] breezing 2013-06-08 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
...No, I don't think so. They're like, fat flowers?
endgames: (Maybe)

[personal profile] endgames 2013-06-10 04:14 am (UTC)(link)
Kind of. They have a pocket for nectar deep inside them. These ones in the jungle, on the other.... Yeah, you probably could call them fat.
breezing: (+ :D shadowed.)

[personal profile] breezing 2013-06-11 07:40 am (UTC)(link)
It is poisonous?
endgames: (Grin)

[personal profile] endgames 2013-06-17 09:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Just the stuff it pukes up on you. Know what an opiate is?
breezing: (Default)

[personal profile] breezing 2013-06-18 08:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Ewwwwwwwwww!

[ And, after considering that for a second. ]

Nope! What is it?
endgames: (Okay)

[personal profile] endgames 2013-06-19 04:05 am (UTC)(link)
It's a natural and dangerous chemical that makes you tired. Talk about a nap you don't want.

[personal profile] breezing 2013-06-25 08:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Do we have them in flowers here in Luceti?
endgames: (Shrug)

[personal profile] endgames 2013-06-26 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe. I've never looked around enough to know. But we got 'em outside the barrier.

[In that jungle at least.]

[personal profile] breezing 2013-07-03 06:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Did you take a nap you didn't want?
endgames: (Maybe)

[personal profile] endgames 2013-07-04 07:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Not me, but a guy I know did.

[...permanently.]
breezing: (= considering this.)

[personal profile] breezing 2013-07-13 02:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Is it hard to wake up from that kind of nap?
