IS THAT THE SIREN CALL OF AN OPEN LOG I HEAR?

[atwistedfancy]

Jam had gotten used to his own companion. He'd been bemused at first, even chagrined, but eventually he'd come to accept it. The purple floating thing had an interesting sense of humor at least, and Jam certainly had no objections when it turned that onto his customers. He would murmur some perfunctory apology for them, of course, and smirk when they turned to hurry away.

And so Jam wasn't entirely displeased to see that his... his Haunter, he supposed it was called (if what it endlessly repeated was any indication), was drifting nearer to another island resident and her own odd animal. He watched as it approached from behind, bobbing through the air with that disconcerting grin it wore. It stopped just above them, paused there, and began to drift down, face upside down and already arranging itself into a menagerie of odd expressions.

Juvenile, yes. But Jam smirked from where he sat a distance away, amused nonetheless. The girl didn't look of particularly stern constitution to him, perhaps the Haunter would even get a shriek out of

I DO BELIEVE IT IS~

Ino sighed again and closed her eyes, moaning quietly in self-pity as her little pig starting whining again. She didn't know, however, that it was now trying to warn her instead of just whining.

When she looked up to ask whoever was listening Up There why she had been stuck with this whiny little pig, she didn't see the sky. Instead she saw the Haunter making very odd faces.

She let out a loud, high-pitched scream, though it was very unbecoming due to her status as a kunoichi. Spoink bounced off the bench, letting out a quiet sympathetic noise that was impossible to hear over Ino's scream. "Spoing?"

It wasn't quite a laugh, not really. Jam didn't laugh. It was more along the lines of a quiet chuckle, barely even audible above the shriek, the spoinging and ha-ha-hauntering. But he was amused, that much was certain.

Jam's long limbs unfolded as he stood from his comfortable perch underneath one of the trees. "Come away, Haunter," he called, cool and smooth, and knowing well enough that the thing that had chosen to follow him had also, for some reason, chosen to obey him. It did so again, chortling its odd call and bobbing happily through the air.

"Terribly sorry," was the completely insincere apology Jam directed at the girl when he had strolled near enough. "These things, you know. Minds of their own."

Ino was no longer terrified - no, she was livid. So much so that she was shaking slightly. Not to mention the fact that she was embarrassed that she, a well-trained kunoichi, had been taken off guard by a creature. Though, in her defense, there was no way she could have heard it approaching.

"You bet-" That was when she looked up. She stopped, blinked twice, and noticed that this guy was really cute. Not cute enough for her to just forgive the fact that his own creature had surprised her, but he was pretty cute. "They do. That's an appropriate name for yours. I'm Ino."

Spoink bounced over to Ino, quiet now and staring at Haunter with a childlike innocence.
