[ino's pretty much just making her way out of the clinic and heading down the stairs to leave the castle. oh! but she'll stop to pop into the kitchen for a small snack before she heads back into town. an apple, maybe? or hmm, maybe a pear ... she'll just be pondering the many choices this basket of fruit has to offer]

Besides napping? [His favorite, truth be told.] The usual stuff. Somehow I find a lot of time for recreation.

[ino]

[ahaha, she has to resist the urge to laugh. he really is like shikamaru ...] The usual stuff? So, what ... drinking?

[gottaknockhard]

[How did she guess that so fast... He recovers quickly though, laughing it off.]

There's a reason they have so many bars around.

[ino]

Hah! I knew it. [all you boys are the same!!] What's your favorite, then?

[gottaknockhard]

[He'll have to remember to look less like an alcoholic...]

Bar? [Well, it's not like he'll corrupt her or anything.] I usually just hang around the Lux. Whenever the castle isn't having an episode.

[ino]

What about at home?

[gottaknockhard]

[He just blinks.]

I can't remember. I didn't really visit too many bars twice at home.

[ino]

Hmm.

[she'll turn to look at him... that reminds her] Have you spoken to Reno yet, since he came back?

[gottaknockhard]

[He's not following.]

Once or twice.

[ino]

[she nods]

Last time you were here, the two of you used to run a bar together,

[gottaknockhard]

[That's a really nice way to call him a bartender.]

You knew me back then?

[ino]

[she shrugs] A little. This was a long time ago. [kinda before she was included in the "adult" crowd ...]

[gottaknockhard]

[He'll take that to mean he made some kind of impression for it to last this long.]

Yeah. I don't remember that either.

[ino]

Of course you don't. You left and came back.

[gottaknockhard]

[Right... He should make a joke about this to keep them from getting into his problems.]

I was hoping I'd still get free drinks when I heard about it, but I think you might be the last person who knows that I used to work there.

[ino]

[lol ... that gets a little grin]

Probably. But Reno remembers everything, so if you want the free drinks, you should ask him.

[gottaknockhard]

Is he working there again?

[ino]

[she shrugs] Maybe. Travis is back too, so he'll probably try to revive the place.

[gottaknockhard]

Well, if that happens, I'll treat you to a drink.

[The free kind, even! He's both charming and cheap.]

[ino]

[she laughs]

Really! Well, that's nice of you.

[gottaknockhard]

[That laugh brings another smile, disarmingly genuine.]

I'm a nice guy.

[ino]

[too bad she's not into nice guys, spike ....... :') but she's surprised at the smile]

You really are in a good mood, huh?

[gottaknockhard]

[He feels like he could turn that around.]

I thought I'd try it out for a change.

[ino]

"Try it out"? [now she's grinning] So nothing good happened?

[gottaknockhard]

Maybe one thing.
