The nugget storm happening at Hellhound’s side of the table started to draw Wagyu’s attention as it continued on and on. Sure, he was used to kids with seemingly-infinite stomachs at the orphanage, but this was something else entirely. She wasn’t just hungry, this was a competition to her. A fight. She wasn’t even taking a moment to savor the tastes, she was eating like it was the end of the world. Honestly, he was a little impressed.
He finished up his salad quietly, and when Freya exclaimed her desire for dessert Wagyu calmly shook his head. He wasn’t really hungry anymore, only partially due to Red Horn’s diet. Part of him was holding off on eating more to leave room for food from Rocky’s birthday party, even though as the hours ticked on it seemed less and less likely he’d be able to actually show up.
Nimue replied to his comforting, and he nodded in reply, trying to give her a nice smile. But, with his face structure, it looked more like an angry grin, or a grimace. He realized it after a moment, and picked at the last few leaves of lettuce in his bowl awkwardly.
He turned his attention back to her, and nodded again as she talked about inspiring people. “You’ve accomplished a lot as a hero, even if it doesn’t feel like it, you’re an inspiration to a lot of people. Even other heroes.” Even him, though he wasn’t sure he could bring himself to admit it out loud.
That was when Red Horn called everyone’s attention, and raised her soda high into the air, leading the other heroes in a toast. Wagyu only had a glass of water, and he was afraid that standing up would flip the table, so he just raised his glass as high as he could, just about hitting Toby’s paper cup with it. “To everyone here!” He exclaimed, then brought the cup back and took a calm sip.

“Never hurts to try, Redhorn! A dog has to get a treat once in a while !” Freya jokingly responded to the comment.
Freya listened intently as she grabbed another litre of soda for herself. Redhorn always had a commanding presence and with how she throttled Freya as a welcome spar, bet your ass she is gonna listen. Though the speech was short and blunt, but it gave a morale boost as she could feel the energy in the office starting to rise. This operation is going to be big and a bunch of us need the boost because we have zero clue what is going to happen out there.
The heavy hitters are prolly aiming for the boat, she is a bit green so she will prolly be assigned to the outer parts of the field. Taking care of the stragglers and the like alongside the officers and other units. Taking command of unit will prolly be her deal and as much as she hates to admit it, she would be more useful here than in the heat. Sucks though that she can’t be in the middle of it all. But beggars can’t be choosers these days so let's see how this mission fairs.
Freya then immediately starts chugging a bottle of soda as many officers works start chanting ‘chug, chug chug’. Might as well save and build up as much energy so she can burn it all off when the op starts.

Nimue Nakahara Yuuei's Nurse Did she want dessert, looking at all the food before she had half hearted regretted for not ordering something as well but it wouldn't have been fair to Freya to even carry more, nope her shake was enough and she simply watched and talked to Wagyu, which was definitely something that made her evening in general a lot better. The birthday card being the cherry on the cake. It felt good to be with so many but she had first felt left out as well, knowing they were all here she might be able to spark a conversation with them like she had done before with Freya, it might be worth to try it later. She would see, it depend how tired she was tomorrow and how ready to roll for any discussion about her job here. Maybe she should go back to school
She definitely felt sleepy, compared to some others who seemed to be still ready to roll. Interesting idea to be honest. She was definitely surprised when looking shortly at Freya of the words Wagyu said, probably to cheer her up right? But she blushed, the same nice red colour as her cheekbones was now the colour of her cheeks itself. "I hope so." Was that selfish to say? She wanted to accomplish stuff, she got this job for a reason but she also wanted to inspire people. Inspire to do good for sure. She wanted to ask something but Mia turned her voice a little louder and caught Nimue her attention, and she raised her almost empty cup and cheered along. Yes it would be nice for tonight, it would also be nice for tonight to be done but she smiled. She giggled, it was good to be here and work on, surrounded by those that would understand her.
She stood up, "Well, Hellhound what are you waiting for, we have to get that ice cream?" She smiled to the woman she only met this afternoon, who had finished chugging a bottle of soda which did not even surprise Nimue and it did not surprise that some officers remained lingering in the doorway to see what more Freya would eat in a matter of minutes. She looked at Mia to see if she would come along or anyone else for that matter. It would be good to have some fresh air after being stuck in a room with so many people. She looked at Wagyu, to ask him to come along too, if people wanted of course, it would be a nice short walk, that's what she convinced of herself. Nothing strange in the middle of the night.

For some it hadn't been the most enthusiastic toast, but running on the midnight fumes, Mia was more than happy with the response she got, sitting back down and chugging down the rest of her soda, letting out one of those satisfied sighs that seemed like it might border on almost being painful, like a hiss from the base of the throat. With a rosey cheeked smile she'd return to her meal in making a second monsterous burger with all the bits and pieces she's scavanaged from the surrounding burgers, just about catching windo of there being desert on the menu.
"Mmmf!" She yelled out through a stuffed mouth, covering it quickly so she didn't spew out the contents of her cheek before swallowing back hard and making sure she had enough room for her tongue to move before trying to get out some more words. "Yeah. Ice cream. Sounds good. I kinda gotta..." She swallowed again, vaguely pointing at the food infront of her. "I gotta finish this mountain, but some ice cream will be good. Always makes me feel less stuffed...must lubricate my intestines or something." She shrugged idly, fishing for her wallet and tossing about 2000 yen across the table towards whoever was fetching them all desert.

She grins, somewhat evily without intending, as she clasps her hands together, glad that he took up the offer. A fellow ally in the art of infiltration and disguise, joined together for the common goal of aiding their fellow man. A much more fancier way of saying she's gonna dress him up the best she can. Might fancy up that wig he was given. Could be a good thing to do. Juuuuust might have to adjust it for his height however. Whatever, she'll worry about this and her persona later in the night. Right now, however, its time for something else.
"Dessert, huh?" She hears the others speak. True, dessert isn't what you would call a proper way to end off a meal, especially at night before a grand event. All that stuff in ice cream, ya know. But at the same tiiiiime....come on. It's something to calm down the nerves. Before the big stuff happens, it's nice to have something to calm yourself down, or enjoy something before focusing on your mission. "I wouldn't mind eating some ice cream. Just as long as it has good flavors. It better have good flavors." She looks serious. "It better." She then smirks, intending it to be a joke.

The mention of desert perked up even more as she finished chugging the litre of soda. Her mind started to rush as she wondered what sorts of sweets would be nice after feast like hers. Ice cream would be nice but that could lead to a massive brain freeze and no amount of quirk use could prevent the unavoidable pain such as devouring large amounts of frigid cold sweets too fast. A bunch of pastries would be nice but then it would too filling and that massive variety of sweets would eventually cause her to fall asleep. Maybe gummy snacks would suffice but then she would overcumber herself with the taste of fruit. Chocolate snacks would be a natural conclusion and would be the most pleasant way to resolve her decision but with the meal she had, the cocoa would slam her taste buds hard. The last decision would be a cheesecake but then comes the issue of WHAT CAKE SHOP WOULD BE OPEN AT THIS TIME.
After a bit of mental deliberation and thinking, she up and decides to head out to see if any shops are open nearby and if she can’t find any shops to her liking, then she would settle on a massive amount of snacks from the nearby convenience store. Though Redhorn must have had the same idea as she slipped a 2000 yen bill.
“Eh. Might as well. I’m gonna go try and find a shop that sells the big sweets… So I’ll be buying the massive amounts of sweets so ya’ll can get some choices...”, Freya says as she stands up. She checks her wallet to find a whole lot left as she remembered the massive pay out from game night with the hounds. She picks up the additional 2000 yen and heads out.

The great thing about getting older is that you don't lose all the other ages you've been.
Hachi looked up and tilted her head towards the new conversation topic of dessert that had started up. Ah, she was still hardly through her own drink, and wasn't so sure about letting any more money be spent for her, but...sweets were one of the few things she could eat a lot of and not feel ill, and it was one of her weaknesses. With a small cough into her claws she said, "If...there is any sort of small hard candies, those would be very, ah, appreciated. Again I will pay back whatever is bought for me. Please do not forget the receipt, Hellhound."
Ice cream was nice, too, but a little too cold for her to stick her whole tongue into or into her small mouth. She continued to drink her juice with a tiny smile on her face. From eating a bunch of fast food to getting a cake or ice cream or other sorts of sweets--these were the heroes of Japan? It felt more like the students in the process of training to be heroes. Hellhound in particular was reminding her of those at the school who would go out and buy plethora of sweets or other food items for students too busy to run out and get their own.
That was very kind of them. The same sentiment followed to here but with a little added silliness of adults acting in the same food-focused way her students did.
Some things don't change with age, I suppose.

As everyone else’s conversations continued, Wagyu started to feel tired, his eyelids forcing themselves shut against his will. His head tipped forward, and he almost knocked his head into his glass of water, before he managed to wake himself back up. He’d really been awake for a long time now, without much rest, and he just couldn’t keep up with everyone else here. Ice cream, at this hour, was not something that sounded appealing to him.
At least his attempt to cheer up Witch Doctor had worked, somewhat, as a blush fell over her face. He hadn’t intended to embarrass her, but that was preferable to her being afraid or sad. “Well, I’ll tell you how Rocky feels about your card, if you’d like.” With that, he slid the card back into the pocket it’d been in before, and checked his phone. Well, he called it a phone. It was a tablet, but the scale meant it might as well have been smartphone-sized to him.
A missed call from Kimiko, and quite a few texts. His heart sank. He must’ve missed the party. He checked each text; a couple asking when he’d get back, Kimiko assuming he’d be pulling another all nighter, and then pictures from the birthday party. One in particular made him smile to himself; Rocky blowing out the candles on his cake, held up by Katsuragi so he doesn’t fall head-first into it.
With that, he’d made his mind up. “Excuse me, Witch Doctor, could you please tell the Captain that I had to leave? For family reasons.” He tucked his tablet back into his pocket, and pushed his chair back until his legs were entirely uncovered by the table. Then he stood, taking his time not to brush up against anyone else or push at the furniture around him.
And he was off, leaving as fast as he could go in a polite official environment. Not running, not powerwalking, but clearly heading off for a reason.

feel the light shining in the dark of the night | "I wouldn't mind talking in the future, I guess." Toma was still reserving his opinions about everyone here, including Hachi. He had firm personal opinions about heroism and accountability that he hoped they all shared, but doubted that all of them did. "But for now…"
Toma took one last drink of his coffee, a deep draught to finish the sludge off. He crumpled the styrofoam cup and tossed it into the trash can near by as he pushed himself off the counter. He had things to do to prepare for the upcoming operations and didn't want to leave himself pressed for time.
"I need to get going, Ms. Hachi." He would have shaken her hand but wasn't really sure how that would work out, so instead he just started to wall towards the door. "This operation is going to be big, and I need to prepare. I have some gear that needs tuning before we start, so I guess I'll see you later."
As Toma walked out he mentally catalogued the rest of the heroes. He was glad none of them seemed too nervous, and though they were acting like high school kids at lunch right now they deserved the break if he was right about what was to come. He had mad warnings before, some that had even gone public, about the coming days of quirk war. He just hoped he was wrong.

LIKE A SAILOR, I FALL PREY TO FOOD'S SIREN CALL. Toby could hear his heart in his ears as discussion of getting ice cream whirled around him. Some people practically leapt at the opportunity to continue the social outing. If everyone went, social mores required that Tobias would have to go, too. His chest felt impossibly tight at that possibility. He already felt like a fish out of water. To be subjected to even more spontaneous socializing sounded like torture.
But when King Taurus dismissed himself, Tobias sensed an opening. He gathered his trash into a pile and wordlessly rose, pulling his wallet from his pocket. He counted the appropriate amount of bills, pocketed the rest, and offered the repayment to the appropriate party.
"I fear that I must bid you all a goodnight," he said politely, bowing at his waist, "I still have business to attend to here."
Speaking in more conciliatory tones to Freya as he surrendered the cash to her, "Thank you very much for indulging all of us. It is deeply appreciated."
The crimson gentleman then gathered his trash, bid a final goodnight, and made a hasty retreat from the room. He didn't deposit the trash into a bin until he had made it safely through the doors of his dark, borrowed office. Things would be so much easier once he was in the field. It was easy to be stsrstruck in the company of so many heroes...
