Ain't no party like a ninja party

[usedswift]

Who: open to literally anyone in Blackthorn City who wanders into the ninja party + friends
Where: Blackthorn City (mainly hotsprings but also anywhere)
When: July 23rd
Summary: Sasuke gets a birthday party whether he wants one or not. Lucky for him, he has friends (in spite of his best efforts) who'll plan one.
Rating: G? PG for violence

[ooc; general mingle log for Blackthorn City/Sasuke's birthday. Most of it will probably take place at the hotsprings itself, though like the 'who' says, it's completely open to anyone just walking by and wondering what the big deal is, or someone who's already there and then has their pleasant soak interrupted by a bunch of dumb ninjas.]

[What? You don't want to socialize? Too bad.

Kushina is coming right up to him after putting down a big platter of decorated cupcakes.]

Happy birthday, Sasuke! Come have a... cupcake...

[...But what's up with those cat ears. She noticed them as she was inviting him for delicious cupcakes and may be trying really hard not to laugh...]

[beforethedarkness]

[He knows what that look is, and it earns Kushina an indignant glare. Along with Sasuke going a little more pink, but shh. However, in terms of the cupcakes?]

No thanks. I don't like sweets.

[Cold, bro. Cold thing to say to the red hot habanero.]

[ghostpepper]

[The glare at her attempting to force back a laugh she could live with, because the ears and the hint of pink on his cheeks was oddly adorable. The thing that washed away her smile in an instant was his remark about not eating sweets. Boy, you are about to be treading some dangerous waters... answer carefully.]

What do you mean you don't like sweets, I made them for you.

[beforethedarkness]

Exactly what I said. I don't like sweets.

[It was nice knowing you, Sasuke...]

[ghostpepper]

[Nice for short time she knew him anyway. But damn... who knew that adorable baby would grow up to be such an asshole. In all of three seconds, all hell breaks loose. Her hair and temper flares. Her fist pulls back and flies right at Sasuke's face.]

[beforethedarkness]

[It doesn't get his cheek, but it does manage to smack his nose hard and get a grunt from him. After that he jumps back, glaring at her and noting the warm liquid he feels dribbling down his face. Great, it's bloody, for all he knows it's broken too...

His eye is twitching when he scrubs a bit away, keeping both eyes on her in case she tries for more.]

What the hell is your problem!?

[ghostpepper]

[Happy birthday Sasuke, you wanted a bloody nose, right?

Still, she's pretty pissed off. Aren't you glad she's not your mother?]

I was gonna ask you the same thing! I put a lot of work into those, ya know! And you won't even try one! You won't even look at them!

[itsjustdust]

[Kushina-nee, the goal is NOT to murder Sasuke on his birthday! NOT. AND SASUKE DO NOT ENGAGE!!!

The first strike garners his attention, and it's only a moment later that he's darting to intercept, throwing himself between the two.]

Hey! Hi! So everyone's having fun? Yes? Good? Everyone knows you have the best cooking Kushina-nee!

[beforethedarkness]

[He's about to retort when Obito appears, glaring briefly at him before he scoffs. It doesn't take him long to stand tall-ish (seriously Obito's towering over him by that point) and glare at Kushina again.]

Not liking sweets isn't a reason to attack someone. I don't even know you, and for all I know they could be poisoned.

[ghostpepper]

[Sorry Obito, Kushina's kinda ignoring you... Or as ignoring you as she can be while attempting to push you to one side, that is.]

I don't have any reason to poison one of my best friends' sons or my son's teammate, ya know! I thought if you were traveling with Naruto and Minato and all the others, you would know who I am!

[aflashoffaith]

[Is anyone really surprised at how Minato just kind of appears sometimes?

Probably not.

But he was quick to step up behind Kushina, laughter a bit sheepish as he tried to calm his wife.]

Aha... We didn't meet up today to fight, did we?

[beforethedarkness]

It's happened before. It can happen again. And I don't know you at all.

[Getting into a fighting stance because he's not going to let Kushina get a free shot like she did last time... And whoops more ignoring Minato and Obito in favour of keeping his eye on Kushina.]

[itsjustdust]

[Have some resistance Kushina, probably more than you're used to what with him getting bigger and all. He's looking back at Sasuke now.]

Okay, so, someone was a dick and poisoned you. That person is not Kushina-nee.

I promise, okay? She wouldn't. You're family y'know.

[ghostpepper]

[N O P E sorry ignoring you too honey. And get out of the way Obito. There will be a little more forceful shoving going on. Also, she's going to shove a finger right at Sasuke's face as she leans in as close as she can get with Obito in the way.]

You listen up, and you listen good! I'm Kushina Uzumaki, the Red Hot Habanero of Konoha! AND IF I'M GONNA KILL SOMEONE, I'LL BEAT 'EM TO DEATH, YA KNOW! [Yes it was necessary to yell that last bit. And yes it was necessary to give her finger another jab for emphasis.]

[aflashoffaith]

[Alright, that was enough, starting a fight over cupcakes wasn't worth it. Even if Kushina's cooking was the best.]

No one's poisoning anyone.

[He reached out, placing a hand on Kushina's shoulder, attempting to pull her back some.]

And no one is getting beaten to death either. There's plenty of food here, Sasuke can find something he likes.

[beforethedarkness]

[He does tilt his head back at the jab, remaining just out of reach before straightening again. There's a bit more mental deliberation going on in Sasuke's head as he gives Kushina an evaluating stare, even if it's more of a glare than anything.

At long last he just scoffs and begins to walk away, intent on at least finding some napkins or something to clean up his face and plug up his nose. Uzumaki meant she was related to Naruto... And he remembered the moron mentioning his mom...

Yeah, he could see the relation if the crazy woman was his mom. How annoying.]

[itsjustdust]

[Obito would take it, though he didn't sag in relief, staying a nice secure barrier to keep Kushina from giving chase.]

Don't worry Kushina-nee, him deciding to stop talking just means he likes you!

[beforethedarkness]

[THIS FACE, OBITO.]

[ghostpepper]

It's not like I was gonna kill the rude brat, he's still Mikoto's son. [Maybe punch him some more if the others hadn't run interference.

But at least she's calming down little by little. Something about not being able to get near her prey in front of her and her husband finally getting seriously involved. She digs her fist into Obito's head. Not hard enough to bowl him over, but enough to convey the message that she was tweaked at him for getting in the way. She turns on her heel and walks off to finish cooling down. Minato is the luckiest of the bunch, escaping her passing unscathed.]

[aflashoffaith]

[Ah... diplomatic immunity.

Though that was definitely a sigh of relief as Kushina huffed off, Minato watching her warily for a few moments before turning to his student... his poor student, who would probably have a nice goose egg on his head for his efforts.

Sigh.]

Maybe you should ask Sakura to check in on Sasuke.

[Though he doubted Kushina hit him hard enough to do much actual damage- she was just rather... well trained in knowing how to make herself seem extra threatening.]

...Maybe get some ice too, for yourself.
