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.]

Haven't you figured out by now birthday presents are a surprise? If you smile, you'll find out.

[beforethedarkness]

[More staring.

He's not going to smile, Tenten. Even if he is curious.]

[usedswift]

[She only grins a little more, then leans in to press another kiss to the top of the Purrloin's head.]

When you get tired of wondering, come find me, okay?

[More likely she'll come find him in option B but...]

[beforethedarkness]

Don't hold your breath.

[It's not really brushing her off as opposed to trying to provoke her into giving him that 'gift' without him having to smile. Probably.]

[usedswift]

[Sorry Sasuke, no such luck. She just tosses him a wink and takes a few steps back, hands clasped behind her back again.]

It'd just be a shame if I had to keep it all to myself...

[beforethedarkness]

Then why don't you just give it to me now?

[usedswift]

Come find me later, and maybe you'll get it then. Remember, try to be friendly!

[beforethedarkness]

What do you have to give me that you can't give me now?

[usedswift]

Didn't I already tell you that birthday presents are supposed to be a surprise?

[But she does come back over, within arm's reach of him as she quirks an eyebrow.]

[beforethedarkness]

What would make it more surprising to get it later than to get it now?

[usedswift]

[Sasuke, you're impossible. She growls quietly, though her smile doesn't diminish.]

You really want to get it now...?

[beforethedarkness]

I'm saying if you're going to give it to me at all you might as well do it now.

[Shhh he is not curious and wanting to know what are you talking about...]

[usedswift]

[She narrows her eyes at him, then abruptly grabs his collar.]

Fine. Follow me.

[Somewhere without other people around, please.]

[beforethedarkness]

[He's a little stiff from the surprise grab but he doesn't show it further than the slight widening of his eyes. He doesn't resist though, just following her pull quietly so that they can get to wherever Tenten wants to go that much faster.]

[usedswift]

[She doesn't exactly have a destination in mind, just somewhere where no one would see them would do. A little corner around the side of the bathhouse should do it...

So she just pushes him up against the wall and gives him an almost-glare, trying to hide her nervousness.]

You're sure?

[beforethedarkness]

Why wouldn't I be sure?

[Seriously, what was Tenten up to? He just wanted to see what his gift was already, quite honestly...]

[usedswift]

[She gives him another long look before leaning in. After all the build-up and arguing, she couldn't just give him a kiss on the cheek anymore, right?

So she just fists her hand in his collar and closes the distance to give him a hard kiss.]

[beforethedarkness]

[His breath catches in his nose and his eyes widen, having not expected what Tenten was doing at all. She's kissing him?

He can't help the way his skin heats up a little, nor can he move and consequently is standing there while stunned at the action.]

[usedswift]

[She holds it for a couple seconds before pulling back, cheeks slowly flushing a deep red with the exhilaration of it all.]

There. Happy birthday, that's the last present I've got for you.

[Even if she really wants to kiss him again...]

[beforethedarkness]

[Ack, Tenten...

Still unsure of how to react, he's blushing as well and turning away a little, a hand raised to scratch his cheek. He honestly hadn't known that Tenten had that kind of attraction to him... It seemed the same as what his 'fangirls' felt but somehow... More genuine. He didn't know how to feel about it.]

[usedswift]

[Play it cool, Tenten, play it cool...]

Um... I'm gonna go soak in the hot springs now, but I'll see you later...?

[And she takes a step back, hands clasping behind her back.]

[beforethedarkness]

... Mm.

[That's all he can manage in response to Tenten, still trying to sort himself out after what had just happened at the moment.]

[usedswift]

[She flashes him a quick smile, and then she is gone. Poof. Well, not quite poof, but definitely walking away quickly before something can happen that ruins her cool(?) exit. But she can't stop smiling because she kissed Sasuke! One point for Team Tenten!]

[uncagedforjustamoment]

[Although you may no longer possess a Sharingan or chakra to sense it, perhaps you may still sense the ominous presence lingering in the shadows after Tenten leaves?

Tenten may or may not have thought she was discreet when dragging him off to give him a 'present', but she was not unnoticed. A certain nosy and concerned teammate of hers followed her into the darkness and witnessed that particular 'present'.

If he doesn't, he'll quickly know someone is there anyway when the darkness speaks.]

Sasuke Uchiha.

[beforethedarkness]

[He recognizes that voice, and after a moment he manages to calm himself before turning to face the direction where he heard it. Even covered in shadow, it wasn't hard to see those white eyes of his focused only on him.]

What is it?
