[ino]

[Welcome to the beautiful village of Konoha!



How about you spend some time looking around?]

[ ACADEMY | 44TH TRAINING GROUND | HOKAGE MONUMENT | ICHIRAKU RAMEN | KONOHA HOT SPRINGS | YAMANAKA FLOWER SHOP

For more information on the village and its locations, check out Narutopedia, or feel free to PM/IM (terraqueous orb)/Plurk (chomesuke) me for questions! There will be no plot NPCs in this post (other than Ino, I guess, but she's not really an NPC), but feel free to NPC any town people you want/need, civilian or ninja. ]

[CHOKES HAHAHAHAHA OMFG]

Zelos! [ ... totally laughing though skjhaskd]

[whichwayyoulean]

[The Once-ler makes a choked sound]

Not like THAT. [He groans] Man I have to just stop speaking before I dig myself any deeper.

[wilder]

[He snickers]

I'm kidding. You got your own kinda charm, I get it.

You know, kinda like the charm a really surly and grumpy cat does.

[ino]

[ino just looks over to onceler with a sly grin]

Does that mean you posed shirtless for magazines and stuff? That's the kind of flaunting I was talking about.

[whichwayyoulean]

It wasn't that kind of flaunting! I was a businessman, seesh. [Trying his best to ignore that sly grin there, yep]

[Then, more out of spite that anything] Surly and grumpy are the same thing.

[wilder]

So? The most successful businessman I know always wears a shirt that shows his six-pack.

Used twice for emphasis.

[ino]

Well, then there you go! You don't know how to flaunt what you've got.

[opening the door for them into a men's clothing shop now, yaaay]

[whichwayyoulean]

I'm not wearing something like that, Zelos.

[Heading on inside. Good, let's clothe Zelos before women start following them]

There are other ways to flaunt things, you know.

[wilder]

[Oh please women will always follow him. He blows a kiss at a group of fawning girls before heading in with them.]

Uh huh. Like how?

[ino]

[she pats once-ler's stomach] You need to work out a little before you wear something like that, anyways.

[but she'll move to pore through a rack of clothing while she listens to his answer to zelos' question, looking for something similar to what zelos normally wears]

[whichwayyoulean]

[He just sighs, his shoulders sagging, before deciding to find a way to divert the subject of the conversation from his failings onto something else]

So! What are you planning to do while we're here Ino? Is there anyone in your village you want to try to find?

[wilder]

[he just snorts. NICE ONCE NICE]

[ino]

[a little pause in her searching ...]

... No. I already looked. [daddy :(]

[whichwayyoulean]

Oh...I'm sorry. That's cruel of the castle. [And he is sorry, he knows that stuff means a lot to her, the people in her life]

[wilder]

[He...opts to be quiet during this. Considering he's the guy that's lucky enough to have a good chunk of his friends around, he's not one to talk]

[ino]

[she shrugs] It's fine. I wasn't expecting much.

[and she really wasn't -- she's pretty much given up on seeing her dad anytime soon, as sad as that sounds .... but she'll turn to dump a few things in zelos' arms] Here, go try these on!

[whichwayyoulean]

Still...

[But hey, let's enjoy Zelos and his new attempts at decency] In a changing room.

[wilder]

[he'll take them! And of course, resist the changing room to be a pain]

What? Oh come on, it's not like you'll see anything new!

[ino]

It would be new if he closes his eyes when he changes. [SMUGGEST GRIN AT ONCELER HAHAHA]

[whichwayyoulean]

Is it seriously 'Pick on the Once-ler day' today or something? Because I missed that memo.

[wilder]

[He chuckles and starts to put on one of the shirts, because changing rooms be damned he does what he wants]

I sure hope not, I haven't gotten my decorations or anything yet.

[ino]

Aw, come on, don't be like that! You can pick on me if you want. [she'll just punch you in the face is all]

[whichwayyoulean]

No I can't. If I pick on you, you get violent.

[Ugh] Hilarious, Zelos. Really.

[wilder]

[He shrugs and gives a look at Ino]

He's got a point. You don't take it so well.

[ino]

[she shrugs]

I only said it because I knew he wouldn't do it.

[LMFAO]
