Saturday BBQ

[teachingpeace]

Who: Anyone Uzumaki, Namikaze, Hyuuga, or that they want to bring with them for any reason.
What: BBQ
When: Starting at noon on August 3rd.
Where: Uzumaki Household
Summary: Kushina and Nagato were planning a get together for the family and Nagato finally pinned down a time when both he and Konan were free around their schedules.
Rating: PG?

Nagato has a grill ready for the party, though he himself wasn't exactly the best person to be manning it. Instead he'd made sure to have a huge stockpile of things ready.

Admittedly, him choosing meant that the options were a little weird, so there was chicken, steaks, hot dogs, hamburgers, tomatoes, pineapple, mushrooms, and, for some unfathomable reason, apples ready to be tossed on the grill.

Drinks were a bit more normal, various sodas set up on a table, juice, and a neat array of liquor put aside in the kitchen so none of the under-agers would be tempted.

There was desserts and finger snacks too, so, if nothing else, no one could accuse him of not having given everyone a variety...

Food. Food food food foodfoodfood! Elie had been told about this on one of the days after school, and had been looking forward to the party (it was a party, she was convinced of that, not just a get-together of family. Their family was huge) once her dad had mentioned it.

But she's totally mature about all of this. Anyone out of her family will get the "HEY DO YOU LIKE SEE-FOOD?" game, and various relatives will be getting jump-hugged when she sees them. Never let it be said that Elie doesn't love her family; after all, even if she can see them at any time, it's always nice to see her family.

Even if she is shoving her tongue out at people with chewed food on it.

[Nagato is going to make such a face at you when you pull that stunt on him.]

One of these days the answer is going to just turn into no, and you'll never see fish in the house ever again, you do know that don't you?

[etherion]

[Once the food is put back into her mouth and swallowed, she'll start laughing.]

You should have known that's what I was going to do, and I couldn't pass up the opportunity!

[teachingpeace]

I knew, and yet somehow I still hoped, deep in my heart. [He paused, a hand pressing to his chest.] I hoped that you would choose another punchline.

[etherion]

Pfft, I don't think there IS another punchline, and even if there was, it wouldn't be as much fun as that one! Unless you know of another one?

[teachingpeace]

[His tone was full of faux mournfulness.]

I wish I could think of one, but no, nothing comes to mind.

[etherion]

See?! Then the see-food line will always be. Sorry dad, I guess you can't win this one. I'll try to think of one too though, just to be fair!

[Though it's painfully obvious she really ISN'T thinking of one, she'll put on the show for her dad regardless.]

Nnnope, nothing coming to mind.

[teachingpeace]

....You're terrible with this game, you know that. [He shook his head at her on a soft laugh.] I suppose I shouldn't have expected otherwise after being exposed to me and your mother for so long.

[etherion]

Terrible? Or the best? I'm opting for the best.

[Complete with pose. Because she's the best. Like no one ever was.]

[teachingpeace]

[Pokemon follow me everywhere. That just prompted him to reach out and ruffle up her hair, because she was never too old for hair ruffles.]

The best at being terrible, is that adequate?

[etherion]

I think I can roll with that. For now, I mean! Eventually I'll just be a true terror.

[teachingpeace]

You say that like it's a life goal. You're not out to traumatize your poor father are you? [He's going to give you a woeful face now.]

[etherion]

Ok, maybe just a partial terror. A partial terror that... dances! In... in plays! Better?

[teachingpeace]

....You want to be an Opera performer then?

Spotting the girl, Naruto sneaks up behind her before tapping her on the head. Hey there, cousin!

"Hey, trouble!"

[etherion]

With that tap on the head, she'll twist herself around to frown, then stick her tongue out at him. Luckily, there's no food on it so he's not getting any... seafood this time around.

"Hey now, I'm not the one who's trouble! If I recall, you're the one who makes more trouble than me!"

Or rather, the one who got in more trouble than she did during their younger days and hijinks, most likely.

[believeit]

"Hey, I totally don't get into trouble! I'm an adult now!" He looks almost offended, but only for a moment before that cheeky grin is on his face once more.

"I learnt how not to get caught."
