[Okuni turns towards Baren once he's finished with the last straggler, arms full of streamers. Her eyes are soft and fond too, despite knowing that she's on THIN ICE with a lot of people... Which she feels bad for, but she's grateful too -- that she got to spend this day with Baren. And she liked hearing him laugh and smile and revel in their mischief, and she liked seeing him surrounded by people he cares for. Their last birthday had been... well, probably when he infiltrated the Mori. This birthday will mark the first of many to come -- with Baren in Middleton and Okuni still back with the Xian Le.
She finds herself dragging her feet as the night grows long. She has to go back sometime, but it's like there's a spell on the bar that feels too fragile to break just yet. It's obviously because she needs to help clean up all the chaos left behind, of course. She can't just GO. That's bad manners!!]
Baren, [she starts, shifting the streamers to her other arm as she hops on up towards him, holding out her free hand to take his.] ...happy birthday!
b give me soft baren
