Himiko is wrestling to get her things together. After the Green Knight thing, her mood almost went down hill, so this part makes up for it. And the arcade world glitched was great too. After she put her stuff together, she is sliding down the tree and heading off to the destination.
Maybe she arrived a little early, she couldn’t help it. It’s her birthday and she will do it! Himiko stands outside knocking on the door with a grin on her face. She plans to enjoy her life to the fullest!]
Instead of the door being opened when she knocks, she's actually just in time to hear footsteps behind her, and then Kenma's making his way up the steep tree steps with a suspicious box in his hands, smiling faintly up at Himiko. ]
Ah- you beat me here. I came from town.
[ Not a hard guess what's in that box.
Kenma steps around to pull out his key and carefully open the door with one hand. Click! And they're in!
The inside of the treehouse is pretty neatly laid out, a small cozy living space with a kitchenette, living room, and a couple doors leading off to his room, an unused bedroom, and the bathroom. The area that would normally be just a couch is covered in pillows and blankets, more nest shaped than traditional seating.
TLDR a kindof "lo-fi beats to chill to" background vibe. ]
[Wait, did she just climb a tree to get here? (She also lives in a tree somewhere).
Himiko doesn’t have much stuff, and she seems pretty eager about this. Her feet are tapping on the wood, almost like giddy jitter teen girl waiting for her boy band concert. She is just, too dang happy about this.]
Ken-chan! Good evening.
[She waves with a huge grin.]
That’s okay, I came from over there.
[She points to one of the tree houses. From a distant. The box goes unnoticed and already Himiko is prepared to scoop it off the boy’s arms.]
Hey hey, let me carry that. We can have it later.
[She takes a peek inside, its too dang cozy. Wow, looking at that nesting of pillows and blanket, she’s already coming up with ideas.]
[ His head bobs neatly, passing off the box without an issue as he peers out across the treescape towards her tree. Mmh- not too far away, actually. His own treehouse has some wooden steps spiralling around the trunk before reaching the entrance, so not a super difficult climb!
Into the house, the door clicks shut behind them and her enthusiasms a bit infectious, keeping a small smile on his lips as he steps over to the living room. ]
Since it's your birthday, you can choose what we do?
I've got plenty of games... And some movies.
[ He trails off, unsure just what else he could offer. Snacks? That goes without saying. ]
[She carries that box in carefully, treading her way into the cute home. She looks around, getting designer ideas for her own. Because in truth, that’s her home over there too. The realization is hard, but she doesn’t seem angry about it. Himiko’s smile barely wanes.]
Your place is a mess, looks good.
[Which she didn’t mind, bouncing herself around, finding a small table or night stand to put the box down. Then her small duffle drops to the ground next to it.
When Kenma mentions some ideas for tonight, Himiko paused, tapping her chin. It’s been so long the last time she had this kind of fun. Is this… going to turn into a nexflox’n chill event?]
[ His eyes blink wide for a moment, glancing around with a kindof freeze. He probably could have folded the blankets... Admittedly. The cozy addition of soft cushions and warmer lighting led to a kindof... nestled space? It was, admittedly, a treehouse. ]
Mmmh- Sounds good.
[ Now with some sense of purpose, he's pulling a few games out, setting things along and turning the console and TV on, grabbing the spare controllers to bring back with him before falling into the deeper seats with a soft thud. One controller's held out for her with softer smile.
As long as it's games, he can relax pretty easily. ]
I've got... Blario Kart, and Blario party, they're pretty good for multiplayer. Or we could play a shooter or horror-
[It sounds familiar back home, she didn’t have much of a lecture to play it. Here though, Himiko happily plucks the controller from Kenma, and then falls back into the soft cushion, sprawling both arms and legs out. Oh yeah, she was getting conformable. Absolutely normal.]
I can’t believe I finally get to try it out! Blario Party is good too, and Super Smash Bro is a good way to end friendship.
[Now, she needs to remember the buttons. Pick up boxes, release item… Himiko is grinning happily. She side-eyes Kenma when the race is about to begin.]
Now, don’t you dare go easy with me, or I’ll cut you.
[ Casual as can be, Kenma hands over the controller, blinking once as she stretches and settles like an overenthusiastic cat. Pfft. ]
Did you not get to play games much?
[ He picks out his character, Waluigi for fun, going through the course selection and higher speed. The comment earns a pause, and for a flash of a second she gets such an intense, borderline predatory smile like a cat that just spotted a bird. Toga's not the only one that does that. ]
[Not to mention most of the places she hung out didn’t have good electricity or television. Himiko picks her character, a pink dinosaur. Not too fancy, focusing on balance and item handling/aiming. It’s cute and she’s an item hoarder.
Oh, she caught that sight of Kenna’s game face and.. it sends chills down her spine. She’s actually excited and afraid? She returned a flashed toothy grin.
Let’s do this!
First course, she gets a good start! (D16) No burnout lag, ha! She hits the first box item and its—— (d12) a green shell! Green shell, fine! She got this.]
[ Himiko are you blushing? Kenma simply smiles and then focuses on the screen.
Now, he's an experienced gamer, and if this were a contest of skill the deck would be horribly stacked. Luckily, or perhaps intentionally, Blario Kart with 6 NPC and items on is NOT a game of skill so much as it is a game of luck, frustration, and Chaos.
Kenma's off to a good start, but being in the lead early is sometimes not the best. His first item is (D16), a mushroom! About as good as one can expect near the front. He holds onto it until the right time before BOOSTING over a nearby jump.
The real chaos comes with the NPC's though, who (D7) seem to scramble around the middle of the pack shooting items off each way, there's bananas and shells firing around the course in no time and (D12) Kenma just barely manages to slip around the corner over a banana. Spinning out but quick to recover. ]

Gimmie an hour okay? Yay! =^w^=

Yeah.
I'll see you there. 🙂
[ He's off to pick up some cake, real quick. But he'll be there. ]
