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

[...Wow he really should have carried on eating. OH WELL. He puts down his meal and gives her a smirk]

Oh, please, easily. I'm like...almost twice the size of you.

[wilder]

[he makes a quiet "ohhhhhhh" noise and watches to see if Ino will back down]

[ino]

[are you kidding me ino does not back down]

Yeah, and? You never had a drink until camp a few months ago.

[whichwayyoulean]

And I've done it a few times since then, I even have a drinking buddy. How much of it have you done?

[wilder]

[Man you two...he had a better drinking record when he was fourteen this is kinda sad...]

[ino]

[never mind that, she's preoccupied with what he said]

What? You do not. [HOW HAS SHE NOT HEARD ABOUT THIS PERSON] Who?

[whichwayyoulean]

Yes I do. I hang out with other people besides you guys, you know.

Her name's Kalinda.

[wilder]

Like...actually leave your room to hang out and drink with?

[ino]

[... she does believe him. really, she does. and she's proud of him for making new friends.

... but still, she has to tease him, it'll make the competition more fun!]

Kalinda? That doesn't even sound like a real name. I think you made that up.

[whichwayyoulean]

No we just get drunk in my room. [Sigh] Of course we go out.

[He made a real friend all by himself you guys! Still, he'll give Ino a look]

You are aware you're debating what a real name sounds like to a guy called 'the Once-ler' right? Your argument's already kinda invalid.

[wilder]

Seriously? You never go out with me. [SOUNDS SULKY] She's not prettier than me, is she?

[ino]

Ooh, yeah! Is she pretty? [LEANS IN IN INTEREST. MAYBE SHE CAN HOOK YOU TWO UP SO SHE DOESN'T FEEL GUILTY ABOUT HIM LIKING HER]

[whichwayyoulean]

I never go out with you because getting drunk with you highly increases our chances of getting arrested. Or me having to see you naked. Or both.

[Ino that's a touch worrying and he's pretty far gone with you darling. Still...] I...guess she is? [He shrugs] Why is that important anyway?

[wilder]

Oh please. I don't arrested or naked every time I get drunk.

[ino]

It's important because I say so! [leaning so far over ... enjoy dat cleavage from her civvies] So on a scale of one to ten, how hot is she?

[whichwayyoulean]

That's why I said it just increased our chances.

[Ino stop. He leans a little away from her trying to divert his eyes]

I don't know! I don't look at a woman and rate her in my head. Who even does that? I spend time with her because I enjoy her company. She's a fun person to hang out with.

[wilder]

Lots of people do it! There's nothing wrong with looking and recognizing how attractive someone is.

For example, Ino would be a seven...maybe seven and a half, and Martel would be a eight or nine if she wasn't Martel.

See? Simple.

[ino]

[OFFENDED]

Only a seven?!

[whichwayyoulean]

[Glad the conversation has derailed from him and any feelings he might have for anybody, the Once-ler sends a smirk in Zelos' direction]

Good job, buddy! I can see now how girls would really appreciate being rated.

[heal_theworld]

[From across the table:] Are you sure you're not rating me too high?

[...She actually loves you too, grandson.]

[wilder]

I see what I see, Ino, I'm sorry.

[And a glance over at Martel]

Of course I'm not! I'm the most unbiased rating system you can get!

[ino]

Yeah, right. [SULKING NOW LMFAO will someone please tell her she's pretty]

[whichwayyoulean]

[Look hat you did, Zelos. He cast the guy a pointed look, before sighing and offering Ino a smile]

Aww, don't listen to him, Ino. What does he know? You're always the prettiest girl in the room.

[wilder]

[He just sits back. HE REGRETS NOTHING. ]

[ino]

[the briefest, subtlest AWKWARD PAUSE, because. alskdjasd ONCELER DONT DO THAT IN FRONT OF GALE JFC]

Well, yeah, of course! [grins and OH HEY LOOK THE DRINKS ARE HERE HOW CONVENIENT SHE'LL BE TAKING THAT FROM THE WAITRESS NOW]
