A Very Merry Hobo Birthday... To You!

Who: A whole lot of losers (this can mean you). Specifically, Ankh, Eiji, probably all of the Senshi, Martin, Elly and Fei. Nozomi? Possibly more Love Lives?? A WHOLE LOT OF LOSERS... I tagged everybody I knew would be here that I knew the canons for. :<
What: Hino Eiji's birthday!!
When: October 22! All day, all night, as long as y'all wanna celebrate this hobo.
Where: Hikawa Shrine.

He was pretty sure Rei had said something about it being Eiji's birthday. He didn't actually care overmuch, since she had come to him with the request that he take Eiji and distract him until a specific time, and given him the idea of making him buy ice cream. Ankh liked ice cream. In fact, it was about his favorite thing. So when it had been suggested that he could force Eiji into buying him some, whilst still fulfilling some kind of request from Rei, it meant he was getting ice cream and having the grumpy Shrine Maiden indebted to him (at least, in his own mind). So while there was the vaguest of concepts in his head that this was a distraction for some kind of celebration in honor of Eiji, he was mostly interested in the fact that he was making the vagrant buy him something.

And so here they were, Ankh dragging Eiji by the sleeve, heading into town.

[ Haruka has a brief moment where she wonders whether Usagi realizes that was all illusory - then remembers having seen the girl in passing at a different party with her hair in a different style after being singed in a "dream". So instead she just turns her cup around in her hands. ] It's good things have quieted down.

[ Unless you've had even more terrible dreams. Hers have stayed away, though, which is simultaneously refreshing and disturbing. Kind of like the gods she's met. ]
inthenameofthemoon: ([usagi] hum hum hum)

this party is overdue for a drunk odango lbr...

It's been pretty hectic, hasn't it? All the dream world stuff and then Soulfasting...

[ That's the problem with opening flood gates. Everything comes pouring through like a torrent until it finally trickles into something normal. But, if she's been having more dreams, Usagi is doing a good job of hiding it... for now. ]

Ah! How's everything over at the theater? My carbink has been going over there a lot saying it's really busy and they want to help....

[ Because Kira's trying to make it seem like they're doing theater things instead of saving union from injustice and a wanna be hero in the form of a braviary. ]
actsmagnificent: (shades)

will she give a pudding recipe, though

[ Carbink? Haruka doesn't remember seeing a Carbink around. Then again, she herself doesn't help with the theater stuff unless she absolutely has to, so it's entirely possible the little Pokémon's been lending a......well, Carbink don't have hands, but that's the idea.

She shrugs, wetting her lips with the drink. She's not sure she has a full sip left in her. ]
Are you interested in joining?

[ And there's that double meaning again. If Michiru were with her she'd probably be getting Looks right now. But Michiru is elsewhere. Likely being a better party guest, or else putting a small paper hat on an egg. ]
inthenameofthemoon: ([usagi] you have my attention)

she'll give a recipe that sounds like any of the words she hears drunk. that I can guarantee XD

[personal profile] inthenameofthemoon 2014-11-25 06:34 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not really very good at acting...

[ Or any of the handy work for that matter...

She doesn't catch the double meaning because she still doesn't know that the theater is actually a front for the DDF! So, Usagi just thinks that Haruka might want more help around the theater because.. reasons?
]

But, I won't mind helping out once in awhile if you're low on staff!
actsmagnificent: (laugh)

i wonder if she can *actually* cook while drunk. like is this a secret superpower

[personal profile] actsmagnificent 2014-11-25 02:37 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Curse their secret secrecy! It works so well!

Haruka has to crack up at that response though. It's just so....Usagi. ]
We'll see about that.

[ So much for not taking an actual sip of this stuff. It helps occupy her mouth so she doesn't have to talk. ] There's no one you won't help out, huh.
inthenameofthemoon: ([usagi] just a little smile)

like the drunken kung fu master.... except being a drunken chef? brb adding that as headcanon

[ That laugh Haruka makes just seems to loosen that anxious knot in the pit of her stomach. If she could make the woman laugh like that, then there was still a bit of hope that things could be like they had been before....

And it's like something clicks in Usagi's head. The girl might be a space case half the time, and really, she should have picked up on some of Haruka's double meanings much earlier.... but... better late than never?
]

Well, yeah. Of course I would. I might whine a lot but I'm not going to sit back if my help is important.

[ Usagi's not very good at the double meanings, but, she's pretty sure Haruka will see right through that and the gaze that holds a hesitant but determined smile. ]
actsmagnificent: (bored)

she does eventually get to the point when sober that the food only LOOKS disgusting...

[personal profile] actsmagnificent 2014-11-26 02:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Haruka's tempted to ask "No matter what's asked of you?" but honestly, words can't assuage her doubts, only actions. And in practice thus far, you've always chosen to talk your way out of trouble. What's more, your arguments were naive. Heatran wouldn't have listened. She isn't even sure Darkrai had. Saving the world will be impossible for you.

Right now that depresses Haruka more than it makes her angry - it's not Usagi's fault as much as it is the world's, for not living up to Usagi's beliefs, but Usagi's the one who's going to suffer (at Haruka's hands if need be, at that) - so she just sighs and gives Usagi a tiny half smile. ]
We'll see about that.

[ Ah, there's movement around the cake. Haruka looks over. ] Later, then?
