Room 504, Friday Just After 2nd Period

[intraspective]

Boys, Ino had decided, we bound and determined today to royally piss her off. Between creepy-Tyler, and Michael pointedly ignoring her in Chemistry, and then with Ichigo being hurt again and then having to shear sheep in Phys Ed…

…It was a foul temper sort of day.

“You,” Ino informed Ichigo sharply, as she opened the door to her room. “Are an idiot. Get inside.”

[For that boy she’s calling names. And he’s totally modded with permission.]

Comments

"Your turn next then," she said, fighting a smirk. "What'll it be then--murder? Or possibly... rape?" He wouldn't ever, she knew that.

Ino did enjoy making Ichigo flail, yeah.

He did more than flail, his shoulders jerking as he drew away. "Don't joke about that."

[intraspective]

"You upped the ante," she said, frowning in irritation as she leaned over to heal another scrape, "I just followed along. I know you wouldn't."

[first-guardian.livejournal.com]

"It's not funny," he growled. It wasn't when you had something drumming at the back of your head. Something that was capable of god knows what.

[intraspective]

She eyed him. "Then it wasn't funny, and I fail at jokes. It's no big deal."

[first-guardian.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, you do," he agreed, frowning.

[intraspective]

"It's not a big deal, geez," she said. "I don't get why you're so wound up over it."

[first-guardian.livejournal.com]

"Because you don't say a thing like that!" he snapped.

[intraspective]

She shrugged. "But joking 'bout kidnapping is okay?"

[first-guardian.livejournal.com]

"You didn't tie me up!" he pointed out, though he hadn't exactly come of his own volition either.

[intraspective]

"I didn't," Ino agreed, "Just like you won't murder or rape me, so..."

[first-guardian.livejournal.com]

"Fine," he wriggled his fingers. "That feels better."

[intraspective]

"It should," she said, smiling slightly. "Since I'm healing you."

As she went to heal another scratch. "Turn around." A beat. "Please."

[first-guardian.livejournal.com]

That got a smirk out of him, but he shifted, turning his back towards her. "Manners don't suit you."

[intraspective]

"But you listened," Ino pointed out, holding her hands over the first of the scratches on his back. "So clearly, it worked."

[first-guardian.livejournal.com]

"Maybe I was just too startled not to," he suggested. He drew in a breath, aware of the strange feeling that came with the healing thing and he stared down at his arm where the slash had been.

[intraspective]

"Does that mean I'll have to use my politeness all sparingly and such like so it'll only work when I really want it to?" She studied the lines of his back, unable, really, to help it as she was healing him.

[first-guardian.livejournal.com]

He snorted and if there was the slightest movement into her hands, it was entirely unconsciously. "Probably," he agreed.

[intraspective]

She smiled slightly as his movement made his back brush her fingertips. "I'll keep it in mind, now that I know."

[first-guardian.livejournal.com]

Ichigo made a face. "I shouldn't tell you these things. You already have enough plans in your head."

[intraspective]

"This again?" she asked, deliberately sounding bored. "You know me--I don't plan."

[first-guardian.livejournal.com]

"Plans, scenarios, tactics, whatever," he summed up. "Ninja have tactics."

[intraspective]

"I personally like the word 'plot'," she noted, watching as another cut healed up. "But that might just be me."

[first-guardian.livejournal.com]

"I'm unsurprised," he remarked dryly. His eyes drifted shut as the aches gradually started to disappear as Ino healed him up.

[intraspective]

"Well," she said reasonably, "if you'd been surprised I would've thought you were utterly stupid, really."
