How often have you run into people in Luceti that you personally knew already, back where you're from?

[It's something he's been wondering about idly these past few days. In the last week, five people have shown up from his world. Most of the people here now he's met face-to-face - hell, went to school with - back home, sans Itachi. And he'd at ( Read more... )

Yes, I remember you. Is there something I can do for you?

Yeah. There's something in The Guide I would like to speak to you about. Is there a place we can meet to discuss it?

Hmm... well, I am still in the middle of classes right now. Would meeting later on be all right? I should be done around 3 or so.

That should work out. [He's about to meet someone for a shogi game anyways.] Should I just drop by the school...?

All the time. Including people I didn't think I'd ever see again.

[Largely, she answers because she remembers you wanted to talk to her at some point.]

[That he did. He wonders if now is a good time.

Her response though, gives him pause. People you never thought you'd see again... for him, if it should happen someday while he's here, that could be both a good or a bad thing.]

That's right. A lot of your crew has been here at one point or another, yeah? [Vaaague memories of a time when Chouji was 'related' to several of them.]

All of them, now. Though never all at once. And friends and relatives from home, besides.

That sounds like a lot of people. [A faint drumming sound might be heard - fingertips against paper.] Ever find it weird?

[She snorts. See? She's right all along. He'll definitely forget one way or another. Most probably, he chose to forget this time.]

Even during your birthday, you're talking about serious stuff. Lighten up, Shikamaru.

[It's half-forgot, half-didn't care.]

It's just another day. Why bother acting any differently?

[voice] piggybabe September 24 2011, 06:57:40 UTC
[BOTH ARE NOT ACCEPTABLE!!!]

Why bother? [She repeats in a shocked tone.] Because you're born on this day. That's enough reason to, I don't know, be happy?

[voice] its_troublesome September 25 2011, 01:07:36 UTC
Sure. And I'm happy about it for the other three hundred and sixty-four days of the year too.

[ Tenten looks a bit different today. Her buns are covered in ornate braids, suggesting that today has a Very Special Occasion, which Shikamaru would be able to notice. She'll keep a straight face, but with a tiny wavering smile, at the sight of Shikamaru in a flower shop.

What is her life coming to? ]

So, I take it you're more concerned for Ino's birthday than your own?

[She gets a shrug... though he eyes those braids with suspicion when he looks up from an iris.]

It'd be more troublesome to not do anything for her birthday than it would mine.

[ She'll chuckle as she notices that he's looking at her braids. ]

It's still very thoughtless of you, Shikamaru. So, what are you looking for?

[ She'll look around the flower shop. If anything kunoichi class has taught her (when she wasn't blowing it off) was how to identify flowers....

for no real reason but for the sake of identifying flowers.

What an exciting academy life!!!! Don't you agree? ]

[How is it thoughtless when it's his birthday? HE CAN THINK WHATEVER HE WANTS. 8|||]

Well I'm in a flower shop, so you get three guesses. The first two don't count.

[And PSHH. You only say that because you were paying more attention to the weapons. Ino and Sakura have told him all kiiinds of crazy flower stories. Mostly involving allergies and poisons and secret messages. The hell.]

[Because a nice stroll around the village seems like a good idea (and she's also trying to find a comrade of hers who seem to be celebrating his birthday today), Hinata decided to go with it. Since it's not polite to go looking for him with her Byakugan, it takes a while for her to find him.

She finally does in a flower shop and - since she knows he must be there to buy Ino flowers the next day - she doesn't approach him at first. It's later that she does so with a soft smile and a small nod.]

Ah, Shikamaru-kun.

Hey, Hinata. [Still deciding over here, ugh. They're just flowers, but try telling that to a girl who works in a flower shop.]

You settling in okay?

[She nods and gives him a warm smile.] I am. The village seems quiet. [At least, she knows this is temporary but it's always nice to enjoy the peaceful ambiance for now. Noting the way he's taking his time with the flowers, Hinata glances around before looking back at Shikamaru.]

Are you... searching for a good present for Ino-san?

Enjoy it while it lasts. But yeah. [Turning back to these flowers. So clueless here.] Seemed like a good place to start for her.
