[there is a pretty blonde girl lounging on the couch in the lobby, long ponytail draped over one of the arms of the couch. she's got a rather sketchy magazine in her hands and she's flipping through it boredly. the journal is lying carelessly open by her feet on the other end of the couch, so it picks up when she makes a comment]

Honestly, once you've read through a couple of these, it's kind of like you've read through them all.

[sighs, and flips a few more pages ...]

"Her hand being on top of his may signify some kind of power struggle in their relationship." ... What? [a small laugh] That's stupid. They're reading way too much into it ...

[ooc: Open over the journal and in person ♥]

Comments

[ino]

It's not even really on top, though, they're just kind of walking while holding hands. And, if you go by what this magazine says, since he's walking in front of her, he must not have a lot of respect for her in the first place.

[wilder]

Are they walking through a crowded area?

[ino]

... [lmfao]

Yeah. Why?

[wilder]

So crowded that it's impossible for two people to walk side by side?

[ino]

Not really. He's just kind of leading her past some tent.

[wilder]

Yep. Power struggle.

[ino]

Uh huh. I'll take your word for it. [turns the page]

[wilder]

[He flicks his eyes up at her, watching before going back to his book. He seems to be quiet and reads for awhile until]



...So, decided to give up the diet?

[ino]

[LMAO. THAT ... makes her freeze while reading. and then. the rage comes] What the hell?!

[wilder]

[He's just snickering meanwhile]

What? It's not bad, you were way too skinny.

[ino]

Hasn't anyone ever told you it's rude to comment on a girl's weight?!

[wilder]

Don't those magazines go on and on and on about women's weight? What's the difference?

[ino]

The difference is, these have tips about how to look nice! You're just saying "Hey, I noticed you put on a few pounds"!

[wilder]

[he snorts]

Oh please, they don't care about that. And I said it looks good!

[ino]

Ugh ...

[just ... this face. and she's burying her nose in "Sexy Underwear For Your Man"]

[wilder]

[He just snickers at the face and lets her do that as he goes back to reading]

[ino]

[peering at what he's reading after a few minutes .... ]

[wilder]

[.......It's one of Jiraiya's Icha Icha books. :x ]

[ino]

[L M A O]

... I should have known you'd be into that guy's stuff.

[wilder]

Huh?

[Glancing up]

You've read these too? Wow!

[ino]

No, I haven't read them! The books and the author are just well known in my village.

[wilder]

Is that so.... [So trolling this with Sheena if she comes]

He's alright, kinda over the top sometimes. [Which coming from him...]

[ino]

He's kind of over the top in real life, too. But he's one of the most powerful people in the village, so ...

[wilder]

[Lowers book to look there]

-- The porn writer is one of the most powerful people in your village?

[ino]

Yeah. In fact, I think they wanted him to be in charge of everything if Lady Tsunade wouldn't step up.
