There had better be a good reason why I'm fighting- [ A grunt is followed by the sound of flesh being punctured. ]- against these blood-thirsty... things and why I'm not in Konoha.

[ Ino is not very happy. Or informed, actually, because she left as soon as she came to. ]

Comments

[inthejunk]

It's clearing the haze a little, I think. Something that starts with an い I think.

[blondejokes]

Well, let's try something easier then- is she cute?

[inthejunk]

[Finally, an easy one. Like anyone would ever find Uryuu cute. Eugh.]

Not even in your league.

[blondejokes]

Jeez, I didn't think Shikamaru was serious when he said he didn't want a girl that was too pretty.

What color is her hair?

[inthejunk]

Pretty doesn't seem to be his tastes. [Which smarts a bit to admit, but hey. Maybe it'll make her feel better.] It's black.

[blondejokes]

He says pretty girls are too troublesome to deal with.

Hm. And her eyes?

[inthejunk]

High maintenance doesn't seem like a problem for him now.

Dark. And always hidden under specs.

[blondejokes]

It better not be now that I'm here.

Oh?

[inthejunk]

They've been together for a while.

[Might as well not lead you on, after all.]

[blondejokes]

How long?

[inthejunk]

[Crap, a direct question.]

More than a year.

[You know, probably. Definitely since before last November, anyway.]

[blondejokes]

I'm surprised he lasted that long on his own! She must be a good complement to his personality.

What's her sign?

[inthejunk]

What? How should I know? But they're...compatible enough.

[A grimace, while he remembers a night spent on the sofa in the other room trying his best not to hear how well they were getting along.]

[blondejokes]

Friends should always remember their girlfriend's birthday.

And their names, too.

[inthejunk]

...I guess that second one is true, anyway. But I never asked the first thing. I guess I should, though. I kind of owe a return gift anyway.

[blondejokes]

I'll help you! Flowers are always perfect for gifts.

[inthejunk]

You don't mind? Actually, I need to get some flowers for a girl that I...um. For a misunderstanding.

[blondejokes]

What happened?

[inthejunk]

[He definitely can't answer that.]

Um. She took Carr of me when I was feeling sick.

[blondejokes]

That was nice of her. Some agrimony or azalea would be the perfect flowers to get her.

...autocorrect damn it

[inthejunk]

Hmm, you think so? Maybe I'll look for some, then.

i know your pain :'''c

[blondejokes]

Good luck!

Oh, I didn't catch your name, did I?

/sigh

[inthejunk]

Hanamura Yosuke. I'm a greeter, so if you need anything it's fine to ask me. I might be able to help.

/holds close

[blondejokes]

Thanks, Yosuke. I may take you up on that.

:c

[inthejunk]

Its no trouble, miss. It's my job.
