DAY TWO

[ino]

[Another beautiful day in Konoha!



So you've been here for a day. You've had plenty of time to get into trouble and get to know your way around. How about going on a mission with your team, then? Or maybe that new movie opening up today piques your interest ...]

[ MISSION ASSIGNMENT DESK | VACATION | MOVIE THEATER | SHUSHUYA | YAKINIKU Q

For more information on the village and its locations, check out Narutopedia, or feel free to contact me through PM/IM (terraqueous orb)/Plurk (chomesuke) for any questions! The only NPCs in this post will be Gai and the old lady in the opt-out threads, but feel free to NPC any civilian or ninja townspeople you need to. DAY ONE is still open for backtagging!]

[ After a while, her head pops back into view. ]

What did you throw at me?

[ A chorus of shh's greet her. Arya glares at her closest neighbor. ]

Shut up.

[wilder]

[a sigh and whisper back]

Come up here if you wanna talk, my little wolf.

[persequor]

[ Oh, sure, give in to the demands of terrorists. Bad Zelos. ]

Fine.

[ Getting up, she shuffles down her row and climbs up the steps to Zelos'. She plops down in the seat next to him. ]

[wilder]

[That's right. Let's not piss off an entire room full of ninjas and their porn. When she plops down, he'll tilt his bag of popcorn in offering]

It's popcorn.

[persequor]

Oh. I think I've had this before. [ She takes one. ] Connor said it's a crime to watch a movie without it.

[wilder]

Really?

I wouldn't know, this is only my second movie.

[persequor]

Have you seen Absolute Mettle?

[wilder]

Absolute Mettle?

[a pause; okay he admits he never actually learned the name of the movie he saw]

That wasn't about some stupid baby deer, was it?

[persequor]

No. [ The fuck kind of movies have you been watching? ]

[wilder]

[the worst kinds]

Then nope! I haven't.

1/2

[persequor]

Then you have to watch it with me! It's very good!

[persequor]

It's much better than— [ She looks at the screen at the worst moment. She makes a tiny groan of disgust as she covers her eyes with her hands. ]

[wilder]

[He chuckles, reaching over to squeeze her shoulder. There there child]

Alright. Show it to me when we get back to the castle.

[persequor]

[ Not dropping hands. Nope. ]

Why do people pay to see this?

[wilder]

Hmmm...bad tastes, morbid curiosity or they find it funny.

Any of those really.

[persequor]

That's funny? [ Arya peeks through her fingers at the screen again. ] I should have hit him a lot harder.

[wilder]

For some. [Especially those who can tell how cheesy and fake this all is]

Hit who a lot harder?

[persequor]

Man who said he wanted to do that to me. I hit him with my practice sword and ran away.

[ She again hides her eyes. How does anyone enjoy these things, really? ]

[wilder]

Hm.

Yeah, you should've hit him much harder. [I WILL KILL HIM]

[persequor]

[ Disgusted and more than a little horrified though she may be, Arya doesn't leave. She's not a child. She won't be chased out by some stupid movie. Peeking through her fingers again, Arya catches sight of movement close by. One of the ushers. ]

Oh, seven hells!

[ She scrambles over Zelos' lap to the seat on the other side of him. Grabbing his hair she pulls it in front of her like a curtain. ]

I'm not here!

[wilder]

Ow ow ow!

[He winces and nearly spills his popcorn from the climbing and the pulling of his hair; he hisses out]

For someone not here, you're sure hurting me a lot!

[persequor]

[ From behind his hair: ] Be quiet!

[wilder]

[he makes a groan and rubs his scalp, but beyond that he's quiet]

[persequor]

…Is he gone?

[wilder]

Hmm...yeah. He's gone.

Now do me a favor and let go of my hair.
