Log:

[Just over a week since Naruto's announcement to all of Johto and Kanto that his birthday was coming up, the day had finally arrived.

Not too many people were expected to show up (since he did invite EVERYONE) and they'd managed to rent a function room in one of Goldenrod's restaurants for the day. There's plenty of chairs and tables, food, music playing and room to dance if people so wish, you know regular old party stuff.]

[It's not often she's up early on days she doesn't have to work a morning shift. She had planned to get plenty of sleep so she could have the cake baking that morning, then cool enough for decorating before the party really gets going. But she hadn't slept so well. But she won't let some stupid nightmare get in the way of her son's special day. Not on her life. So before she gets baking, she'll just be getting two large mugs of hot chocolate with that whipped cream stuff just piled on top for her morning pick-me-up. But if Naruto wants one of them, she'll just get another to drink while making his cake. No biggie. She sets them down on the table before going up to Naruto, arms open wide with the biggest, honest smile she can muster for the early hour on her face. Because what does time or any of that matter when you can wish your grown son a happy birthday? Yeah, thought so.]

Happy birthday, Naruto!

[believeit]

[It was early in the morning an he still hadn't woken properly, daydreaming about something so he stumbles back a step once he suddenly has Mom hugs out of nowhere.

It passes a second later though, wrapping arms around here. Hearing her wish him happy birthday brings about the biggest grin he can muster.]

Hehe. Thanks, Mom.

[ghostpepper]

I didn't think you'd be up this early or I would've brought your present down with me [Her arms hold him close for a moment before she moves her hands to his shoulders.]

I still can't believe how grown up you are. It feels like just yesterday you were a tiny little thing in my arms... [Aaaaaand changing subjects at the speed of sound before she starts getting into weepy territory. Today is gonna be a happy day, not one for laying out all the sads. So she'll give his shoulders a gentle squeeze. One hand lets go to jab a thumb at the table.] You want a hot chocolate with me before I get baking? Or do you want me to get your present to open now? Or maybe you want some breakfast first?

[believeit]

[He gives a sheepish grin at being told how grown up he is, rubbing at the back of his neck.]

I'll have some hot chocolate! And yeah! Let's have breakfast first.

[He wants presents, but he's also hungry.]

[ghostpepper]

You got it. [She grins because food usually trumps... just about everything.] Help yourself to one, I'll go get breakfast for us.

[She gives him one last shoulder squeeze and makes it a couple steps away before she stops and turns back to Naruto looking sheepish.]

What do you want to eat? [...Since that's an important thing to ask when offering to get someone's breakfast. 8D;;;]

[believeit]

[He picks up one, taking a sip from it.]

...Ramen! [Doesn't hurt to try, right?]

[ghostpepper]

I don't think they're making it this early... [but mama has a backup idea that comes in the form of her secret stash, since ramen for breakfast isn't that bad] But is instant be alright with you?

[believeit]

Instant's fine! It's still ramen.

[More than good enough. He used to basically live on the stuff before remember.]

[ghostpepper]

[Well she doesn't know that... Maybe...]

You got it! Gimme a minute, I'll be right back!

[She zips back up to the room she's sharing with Minato and fishes out two cups of instant ramen from her bag. She almost runs right back out, but then it hits her that hey... maybe she can kill two birds with one stone. So out comes his present, all tucked in a bag with a Poliwag on it an orange paper hiding everything in it: TM27 for Return (picked after rereading what the attack actually did), TM28 for Dig, TM89 for U-Turn, and a Super Rod she picked up way back in Mahogany. ...There may also be two more ramen cups stashed in the bag too.

When she returns downstairs, she plunks the bag and ramen down next to her hot chocolate and darts into the kitchen for some hot water. But not before shouting "Don't open that yet! Breakfast first, remember!" And when she finally comes back to the table, she's slowed down thanks to a kettle of hot water in her hand.]

[believeit]

[As expected the hot chocolate is set down the moment the bag is placed beside him and he almost gets to open it- before Kushina said not to. So with a little pout he just looks at it instead. And maybe feels it up a little to try and guess what is in there.]
