2nd Floor Common Room, Monday morning

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

No classes today combined with new students, meant Johnny was in the common room playing with fire. Mainly just bouncing fire balls back and forth from one hand to the next.

He was relaxed (back from an awesome island trip) and in a good mood. ESPN was broadcasting a motocross race, and he was pretty damn content.

Awesome!

[Of course it's open!]

She shrugged a bit. "He'd just turned back from being a fox for almost two weeks. Wanting clothing. And didn't think to, you know, ask me to go get him some."

"Ah," he said, again. "So you told him no and he played jealous and there was fighting?"

[intraspective]

"He didn't get it," she admitted, flushing a bit, "didn't really tell him it was Kabuto's 'cause, you know, it's not something I was in the mood to explain when he wouldn't quit touching the shirt. So there was fighting, and then he stalked out in a huff wearing nothing but a sheet."

"Yeah, that kind of sucks," Um, he really wasn't sure what to say about that. "He'll come around. If it was me I would be damn curious and maybe, I don't know, maybe you should tell him?"

[intraspective]

"Maybe," she said, frowning a little. "I don't know. I might've even then, though I wouldn't have liked it, if he'd just let it go. But he wasn't listening, so I stopped thinking."

A short laugh. "Bad habit, I guess."

"If he wasn't listening then it's his own damn fault," Johnny said. "Wait till he comes around and says he's sorry. Or at least admits he was wrong."

[intraspective]

"I guess, yeah? I don't know. I don't like waiting 'round for things, and it really bugs me that he just, wouldn't, put the shirt down when I first told him. 'Cause I wasn't joking 'round at all."

"Then take care of it," he said, giving her a look.

[intraspective]

She sulked at him.

"Yeah, yeah."

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

"I'm sorry, what?" he said, hands up. "Want me to take care of it?"

[intraspective]

That dragged a snicker out of her.

"That's almost worth it, just for the expression I'd bet he'd have."

"Hey, for you? I'd totally kick ass if I needed to."

[intraspective]

"I can kick my own ass," she said loftily. "But, hey, thanks."

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

Again his hands went up. "Totally just offering." And he's not kicked ass in a really long time. Not that he was wanting to, but that it was just fun.

[Ahaha! 'I can kick my own ass' ahahaha!]

[intraspective]

"You can if you really want," she said graciously. "But I can do it myself too."

[ *facepalms* I didn't even notice! Hahahahaha!]

"You know, Ino, that's kind of hot," he said, teasing. Only not.

[intraspective]

"Why thank you," she replied with a grin. Because compliments like that deserved grins. "And kickin' butt is fun."

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

"You're very welcome," he said. "You think if you decide to kick his butt you can call me first so I can watch?"

[intraspective]

Ino laughed. "Listen for the shouting. I'm pretty loud."

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

"Will do," he said, grinning at her.
