Jeez, between the people from that church asking for donations every day, recruiting officers for AGI and SERO, and idiots trying to threaten me to join a high school or else, I haven't had a moment to myself. No means no, people, sheesh.

Running a strictly neutral business isn't as easy as I thought. If this keeps up, I might have to hire some big guys to keep them out of my hair. I won't risk a broken nail over people like that. 

But that's a topic for another day. What I really want to know is this: how many of you have been to this "hot yoga" place I saw in the mall? It sounds interesting.

Almost as good?

[Jubilee finds the phrasing interesting. Still, she turns for her favorite makeup store. It's not Sephora, MAC or even close to Chanel, but... hey, she didn't always need the most expensive stuff.]

Nothing can compare to my closet back home. [ It wasn't overly glamorous but she liked it. It wasn't the same here. These clothes, while real, didn't seem ... well, it was difficult to explain even to herself. It just wasn't the same.

She follows Jubilee, keeping pace with her. ] So how long have you been here?

[thelittlestbub]

I know the feeling.

[She misses Warren's credit cards. They made life easier.]

Over two and a half years. It feels a lot longer. You?

A little over a month. It feels like a lot longer, too. [ She isn't too pleased with how long she's been here. And especially since Shikamaru left without her. ]

Wow, I missed the last round huh? That sucks.

[Jubilee starts looking through all the make up.]

That's what I get for not being careful in the Darkness. Lessons and all that.

[Pick up eye palette.]

This would look awesome on you.

Huh? Last round? [ She gives Jubilee a confused look, then considers the eye palette with a nod. ]

Hm. It's a good color, but I don't know if I have any shirts that could complement it.

Last round of newcomers that came in. I was busy.

[Being almost dead.]

Well, we're at a mall. You should get it. And get a funky lipstick to go with it.

I didn't know we came in rounds. [ ... She hadn't really considered it, actually. Why she hadn't seen anybody 'new' pop up on the network recently.

She shakes her head at the lipstick comment. ] I don't put on lipstick. Lip gloss, sure, but lipstick leaves stains.

[ She giggles. ] But you're right. Maybe I'll find a good shirt here.

For a while, it was every month. The last year or so it's been every other month. A nice schedule, but too predictable for my taste.

[Made Newcomers way too easy to pick off.]

You don't wear lipstick? Huh. That's alright. We'll find you a funky lip gloss.

[Grin.]

There's a little boutique here, or was a couple of months ago, that had some nice, funky clothes. It'd be a great place to start.

Can't wait. [ Ino runs her fingers over some soft-toned eye shadow, her smile thinner. She really missed Sakura. Shopping was more agreeable between them. ]

You know, I'm sure I could rock a few outrageous outfits.
