[Yeah no don't trust her with your money, it's a bad idea, although the chicken thing is on you bud. That's what happens when you're drunk and you give a hungry girl access to Uber Eats.]
I could ask others to help but you're the one he's spoken for. [And surprisingly, that's something she respects.] So I thought it'd only be right to make you help me.
[Her hands find her hips once she's smoothed out the front of her simple white dress.]
[No really, she wasn't thinking of inviting anyone outside their little circle anyway. She's possessive, after all, and greedy. Even if it's Adrian's birthday she wants as much of his time as she can get to herself.]
Mm, okay. I can do that.
[And so off she goes, hurrying by him, bare feet pitter pattering against the floor as she moves to the sitting room to make herself comfortable on the sofa.]

He blinks, though, because -- honestly, it's Adrian, and she's probably got something, there.]
...Well, yes. He does deserve that, although I don't know that I'd trust you with my money...
[And, because he knows she's going to pitch a fit otherwise,]
But. I may be persuaded to help.

He needs a lovely cake, decorations and presents.

He tucks the towel around his waist more properly and then rubs the back of his neck.]
-- you know, I think I've got someone in mind for the cake.
[And little does he know, Makoto has already promised to make Adrian a cake for his birthday anyway.]
But we ought to have it -- somewhere not at the house, probably.
no subject
[And she doesn't really have any money.]
What's wrong with the cottage? I want to decorate it.
[She has Plans, Trevor.]
no subject
[How to ... phrase this.]
Sometimes it's good to have things away from home, though.
[So, you know, if you really need to -- you can escape.]
no subject
[Then they can each get their way...or something like that.]
What do you think?
no subject
[Because again, he knows Adrian wouldn't appreciate the two of them getting into a fight about this. He tightens the towel around his waist.]
...I'm going to put on some pants. Can you go wait in the living room?
no subject
[No really, she wasn't thinking of inviting anyone outside their little circle anyway. She's possessive, after all, and greedy. Even if it's Adrian's birthday she wants as much of his time as she can get to herself.]
Mm, okay. I can do that.

...because there are others who are his friends that he might want to see.
[That is, he supposes, not something she might've considered.]
no subject
Well...then they will have to figure out what to do for him, won't they?
[She puffs out a little huff.]
We're more important.
no subject
[Trevor can't help the snort.]
It will make you look -- very gracious.
no subject
[Mainly because it isn't something that concerns her.]
I guess you could invite them. If it's necessary.
no subject
It might be. And that way there'll be a wider variety of food to order.
[...small victories?]
no subject
Well, I won't say no to a wider variety of food.
[Of course she won't.]
