The air crackles with manic, happy noise. Kiba and Sasuke are yelling over each other, trying to drown out my latest announcement. Shikamaru is already dead to the world, snoring softly into a cushion. Sakura, Ino, and Tenten have taken over a corner, bottles of polish spread between them as they debate colors and gossip. Hinata is trying very hard not to stare in my direction, but I catch her glancing over, the blush on her cheeks unmistakable. Rock Lee and Neji are in the middle of a surprisingly competitive hand-game tournament, and Shino... Shino just watches, quiet as a shadow. The room smells like pizza and cheap candy.
