[Considering that there's lots around to do, Espio's sort of just sitting in the corner, resting his chin in his hands and looking distant. He came here 'cause, well, he likes Bulla and didn't want to disappoint her... but he's still pretty down.]

[While she's flitting around and talking to people, Bulla notices that Espio's not talking with anyone. He's not exactly the king of socialization normally, but he does have friends and friendly acquaintances and doesn't appear to be with any of them.

She's feeling playful and like paying him back for sneaking up on her in the quad before, so when she approaches from the side, she's actually hovering a half inch off the ground. Low enough that she's not bothering anyone with her "weird off-worlder powers", but above the ground enough that she's not making a sound as she approaches.]

Hey Espio!

[Well, consider him startled! He'd clearly been lost in his own world, there. Solution, not that it'll help now that he nearly jumped out of his skin? RAGE-SNAP!!]

Don't sneak up on me like that, you complete --

[Halfway through yelling, though, he stops himself and turns his face back to the wall. That's birthday girl he's yelling at, after all.]

Did you have to do that? Really?

Of course I did. All I did was say "Hey Espio", after all. Am I not supposed to greet my friends?

Greeting's fine, but you snuck up on me!

[Grumbles, and then waves a hand to say "forget it."]

So what do you want?

[She looks a bit concerned.]

Are you okay? I didn't mean to scare you.

Forget it.

[That's not answering his question. Espio just turns back to Bulla, frowning - and yeah. He doesn't look like he's slept.]

I asked what you want. You're supposed to say something like "at least wish me a happy birthday!" or "say hi back!" or something, not make it about me.

Oh...well. You can wish me happy birthday and give me a birthday hug, then.

Happy birthday, but I draw the line at hugs.

At least I didn't ask you to come up and sing karaoke with me, right?

[See this face? This face says "if you did ask me that, I would have actually punched you."]

You should have one of the cupcakes. I can say from personal experience that they're delicious.

[It's one of the few refreshments people aren't required to pay for - but the restaurant staff have been instructed to give out only one per person]

I don't feel like eating sweets.

shops_a_lot February 9 2011, 05:20:48 UTC
That's all right. I think there are chips, burgers, fries...but the cupcakes are a treat I paid for so that everyone could have one.

It's more that I'm not hungry. I'm fine with just a drink. Might take one back with me for later, though.

Ooooh, okay. Then yes, you should definitely take a cupcake for later.
