Arriving

( so, it's like this: nobody likes komaeda.

well, it seems that way a lot of the time, from what norton's observing, and the unfortunate fact of the matter? no matter how absolutely off-his-rocker insane he's been acting, he... well, real or not, he didn't seem to be a bad guy in those memories norton has of him. try as he might, he can't simply act as though they don't exist either. so instead, with a sigh of defeat and an important date that he'd learned in those strange memories in mind, he'll go about collecting those who seem to be... more tolerant (even if that's a generous way to express it) of komaeda lately.

he's already arranged for the most reliable chef he's yet to meet in this school to help by preparing a birthday cake, (and learned quite a bit in the process, actually,) and he's let the others know where they should gather. so, when norton decides it's about time to drag komaeda to the survival club's meeting room for some kind of survival club-related excuse of a reason, there should hopefully already be at least a couple of people there and waiting for them—including one boy holding a white cat who may or may not look a little out of his element.

his voice is soft, but as the cake and the small collection of people he's managed to gather come into view, norton offers a smile. )

Happy birthday.

( so... how will you greet the birthday boy? tag-ins will be assumed to be for komaeda, unless otherwise indicated! )

[Ah. Should have guessed Nene was somehow responsible for this. A normal person would feel bad at this point, but Kokichi just grins.]

Obviously! Jeez, don't you taste-test your own cooking?

[He waves his fork idly as he talks, but then stabs it into his slice of cake and breaks off a piece before holding it out to her on the end of the fork. C'mon, try it...]

kokichi like "i could give in to the nene beams but i wont"

Of course I do! ( pouts!!! ) I even had Norton there with me while I was working on it.

( she taught a man how to frost properly and everything, it was an experience.

and then he holds out a piece of cake on a fork like he's offering a bite. ... but what if he really did find something wrong with his slice. fine, fine, she'll try it... leaning over to take the fork, the one sensible part of her mind wants to sigh. )
