Room 504, Thursday After Classes

[intraspective]

After class found Ino laying sprawled out on her bed and resisting the urge just to fall asleep. It would totally screw over her regular schedule if she slept now and woke up at, like, one in the morning. Instead, she was trying to study the notebook Kabuto had given her.

She wasn’t retaining much though. Ino buried her head in her arms and sighed. Was it later yet?

Ino left the door open in hopes that someone would stop by and help keep her awake.

[Open!]

She flailed. "No one should be peeking!" More flailing. "And he's so old! That's gross!"

"He's almost the same age as Orochimaru-sama," Kabuto pointed out. "Tsunade-sama as well." He smiled, attempting to calm Ino a bit with another small burst of chakra. "Don't worry. He probably didn't peek on you."

[intraspective]

Ino stared at him. "Yeah, and? They're both, like, fifty." The chakra didn't do much for her state of mind, "And he shouldn't be peeking at anyone!"

[sound-loyalty.livejournal.com]

"I guess I don't see what age has to do with anything," Kabuto admitted. "He seems far more likely to peek on someone like Tsunade-sama, anyway. He likes women...ample." The silver-haired ninja smirked. Oh, the things one picked up if one listened.

[intraspective]

"... I so did not need to know that." Ino told him. "In fact, why are we even talking about this? Why?" Pause. "And there's nothing wrong with my body!"

[sound-loyalty.livejournal.com]

"I never said there was anything wrong with your body!" Kabuto protested instantly. "When did I say that??"

[intraspective]

"You smirked!"

[sound-loyalty.livejournal.com]

"So?" Kabuto regained his usual calm quickly. "I do that often. It doesn't always mean something."

[intraspective]

"It does when you're talking about another girl's body!"

[sound-loyalty.livejournal.com]

"Another girl? I'm not a girl, Ino," Kabuto said flatly.

[intraspective]

There was more staring on Ino's part. "You were talking about Tsunade-sama's body." She said slowly, "I never said anything about you being a girl."

[sound-loyalty.livejournal.com]

"It sounded that way." Kabuto gave her an affronted look.

[intraspective]

"... how?"

[sound-loyalty.livejournal.com]

"The way you said it," Kabuto explained vaguely. "Do you want me to be a girl?"

[intraspective]

"Don't be stupid." Ino told him. "I like you the way you are."

[sound-loyalty.livejournal.com]

"Good. Because while I could do it, it's a technique that I don't much care for." He smiled. "There's better girls around than me."

[intraspective]

"Oh?" Ino asked archly, "Anyone I know?"

[sound-loyalty.livejournal.com]

"I should hope so," Kabuto replied, poking her side. "If you don't know your own mind, I'd be worried."

[intraspective]

She giggled and squirmed away from him. "I know what I'm doing." Pause. "Most of the time, anyway."

[sound-loyalty.livejournal.com]

"Most of the time, perhaps." Kabuto agreed teasingly. "But what about the rest of the time?"

[intraspective]

"Impulse driven." Ino admitted, leaning over to kiss him. "Whatever seems like a good idea at the time."

[sound-loyalty.livejournal.com]

"What seems like a good idea at this time?" Kabuto asked, interested, kissing Ino again.

[intraspective]

One hand went up to tangle in his hair, "What do you think?" Ino asked, then kissed him again.

[sound-loyalty.livejournal.com]

"Mm? Think?" Kabuto asked between kisses. "What thinking?"

[intraspective]

That made her laugh as she kissed him. "Thinking is bad," Ino agreed, "this is a lot more fun."
