Birthday Prep! (OTA except Senku)


Setting up food!

Plenty of people have offered to bring a number of treats - cookies, savory dishes, snacks ... Gen was placing a half-sheet cake, decorated with planets and with 'Happy Birthday Senku' written in frosting on the table. He looked quite pleased with himself, and would help lend a hand with other food.


Setting up decorations!

There were roughly a hundred origami stars to fold, which Gen would spend most of his time doing, especially if he didn't have any help. But after, he'd be stringing them up all around the dining car, creating an effect like a starry sky from the ceiling.


Setting up party favors!

Then, of course, there were paper flower crowns to fold. Gen had no idea how many people would end up coming, so he wanted a fair number - any extras could sit in the Arms Band or up his sleeves as part of a surprise to spring on people later. You never knew when you needed a paper flower crown!


Setting up the escape room!

This is really what Gen hoped he'd get the most help with. He only had so many math tricks up his sleeve, and he was very certain that Senku knew them all already. At least Nita would be lending a hand! Otherwise, Gen was sure any room he'd make, Senku would solve in minutes.


BIRTHDAY PARTY

Greetings!

Gen would greet the newcomer with a bright smile and an origami flower crown - placed right on their head! He'd direct them to the food, and let them know of the escape room upstairs. Have a lovely time!

Food!

Cake! Cookies! Popcorn! There's some spicy, savory food that's been made by other passengers, too. But hey, at least take a slice of cake. That's what this party's all about!

Escape Room!

Featuring math, puns, and clever little questions fellow Voidtrain passengers could come up with. Of course, anyone can enter and leave as they'd like, but perhaps if they look particularly stuck on a problem, another person could help them out?

Birthday Boy!

Somewhere in this mess, Senku would be available to chat with. Probably. He's not really expecting a party, or gifts, or even a kind thank you - but all would be appreciated.

"Not at all." Senku shook a head. "Any experiment, if you have the instructions whether you do it or I do it, it will turn out the same. That's what's great about science. It's for everyone no matter how smart they are." Senku smiled warmly.

"Look, I'll tell you a story. You know Taiju, I mentioned? He can't tell you how to make anything, but he listens. He has a limited undersatnding but he listens. Years ago I told him that you could use calcium carbonate, or rather, ground up seashsells to fertilize soil to make crops grow better."

He sighed but smiled fondly. "He remembered what I said. When they were planting the wheat fields, Taiju used ground up seashells on his soil and his wheat was the one that grew. I wasn't even there at the time. It worked because science works no matter who uses it."
flatteries: (somehow it's never enough)

Look, Senku, it's real cool that you're so passionate about science and all, and Inigo appreciates him, but he definitely feels very strongly about this not being something for him.

Hence why, despite him smiling in return at Senku - it's nice to see the other smiling so warmly, after all! - there's a hint of something awkward in it.

"Well, I'm glad you were able to help him out like that then." If not just by giving him the knowledge. But farming is yet another thing Inigo doesn't know much about, really. "I'm sure he appreciated it."

"Well we all appreciate it, because bread is something different from fish." Senku chuckled lightly at that. He wasn't offended by Inigo's lack of passion.
